Speaker 1: What old The rockets have taken off after our rough stretch.
Speaker 2: The thunder continue to dominate the Western Conference at a
Speaker 2: level I don't know, we haven't seen since what twenty
Speaker 2: fourteen fifteen? If this script is correct and my spectacles
Speaker 2: are working, uh, and.

Speaker 1: Co host of the Gyro or Edle Step podcast for
Speaker 1: Blue Wire Podcast, I would just buck them back.
Speaker 5: How we pronounced that we go with euro step euro
Speaker 5: There is no incorrect pronunciation because it's a reasonable excuse me,
Speaker 5: a regional term. It's also a reasonable term. But as
Speaker 5: long as people know the pod, you can really call
Speaker 5: it whatever you want. I mean, if you listen, subscribe, download,
Speaker 5: et cetera, call it gyro.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's all it doesn't really. The punt doesn't work
Speaker 6: as well if you're.
Speaker 5: Going, yeah, I can't roll. If I could roll ours,
Speaker 5: I do it the other way though, just because it's cool.
Speaker 4: But just pretend it's a d that's the hack for
Speaker 4: people can't.
Speaker 5: Roll there, dro doesn't for me.
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 6: Tell here.
Speaker 3: Well, they're rolling out the ball on March hysteria, yep,
Speaker 3: is that what we're calling it?
Speaker 4: That little tournament for the kids.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Spring mad times and the tournament, the big old
Speaker 6: tournament there the big games, sixty three of them in fact,
Speaker 6: So I did want to just check because this is
Speaker 6: when I start paying attention to college basketball, although this
Speaker 6: year a little.
Speaker 3: Bit more like, you know, the Johnnies.
Speaker 6: I'm a big, big Patino guy, very excited to see
Speaker 6: what he's been able to do with Saint John this year.
Speaker 6: And you know, UK, it's fun to be able to
Speaker 6: root for them again now that Calipari's gone. They they've
Speaker 6: been entertaining big Mark Pope fan. But this is essentially
Speaker 6: when I start paying attention. I was just looking at
Speaker 6: the mock draft to be like, all right, who do
Speaker 6: I have to watch before they get knocked out of
Speaker 6: the tournament? You know, we like Jah had that tournament
Speaker 6: his last year in college basketball. That was only it
Speaker 6: seemed like it stopped the world. Everyone was like, oh
Speaker 6: my god, that team was out in the second round,
Speaker 6: wasn't it? Like he They got bounced pretty pretty quickly,
Speaker 6: But what a run it was when we were introduced
Speaker 6: to Jah. So who we looking at? What teams should
Speaker 6: we be checking out? There are three players in this
Speaker 6: Bleacher Report mock draft from Duke three. All Right, I
Speaker 6: knew I knew about this Cooper Flag guy, but they
Speaker 6: also have a center who is supposed to be pretty
Speaker 6: awesome and another player in the top ten. So Caman
Speaker 6: Maloch that there's no way that's even close to being right.
Speaker 3: That's the center, right, yeah.
Speaker 5: Connople klingon language here for the other Duke guys who
Speaker 5: aren't Cooper Flag connoople k o n that's a Wisconsin guy.
Speaker 3: And then U P p e L.
Speaker 6: Caniple like even like evil canievel. Those are the only
Speaker 6: two times that I've seen K and N together where
Speaker 6: the K is pronounced Anyways. Another team has two players
Speaker 6: in the top five. Rutgers two players in the top
Speaker 6: five Dylan Harper obviously supposed to go number two, and
Speaker 6: then I feel like he's been long time coming. I've
Speaker 6: been aware of Dylan Harper for a long time. And
Speaker 6: then Ace Bailey at number four, a small forward that
Speaker 6: team's not not in the NCAA tournament somehow. Yeah, that's
Speaker 6: kind of mind boggling. But anyways, you're gonna want to
Speaker 6: watch VJ. Edgecombe for Baylor, and they're not a high seed,
Speaker 6: so you're gonna want to catch their first game if possible.
Speaker 3: He's awesome.
Speaker 6: I did like happy to catch him this season. Maryland
Speaker 6: has Derek Queen, power forward center. Just at a lot
Speaker 6: of big guys, a lot of size that to be
Speaker 6: checking out. Texas has a shooting guard who's supposed to
Speaker 6: go in the top ten, Tray Johnson.
Speaker 3: Anybody.
Speaker 6: You guys are excited excited to see Jace Richardson from
Speaker 6: Michigan State top ten guy. This is in no way
Speaker 6: because my team. The most exciting thing that has happened
Speaker 6: for us is that we're now have the third best
Speaker 6: chance at being the.
Speaker 3: Number one pick.
Speaker 6: Has nothing to do with that, No, definitely, But you
Speaker 6: guys excited for the tournament. Any anybody you're looking forward
Speaker 6: to seeing.
Speaker 2: I just do the thing where I follow you my
Speaker 2: alma mater U c l A. For however, however long
Speaker 2: they go, and then unless I'm doing a bracket, that's
Speaker 2: then I'm kind of checked out, and then I'm watching casually.
Speaker 2: But usually it is always tied to the bracket as
Speaker 2: long as i'm if I've got if the stakes are high,
Speaker 2: that I'm watching. But for me, I'm pretty much just
Speaker 2: trying to see how quickly UCLA lose.
Speaker 5: I my alma mater, uw Oshkosh, Wisconsin, I don't think
Speaker 5: made the tournament this year. I think they were first out.
Speaker 5: I think they saw that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, they were bubble. They did not make.
Speaker 5: So that's so I'll watch the Wisconsin schools. Usually one
Speaker 5: of them will go on like a little run. It's
Speaker 5: never the one you think it is, so, which would
Speaker 5: mean Marquette this year, but didn't go to either. So
Speaker 5: kind of just I like the first week when you
Speaker 5: get to see, like, you know, this guy's going to
Speaker 5: be an accountant next week and he's got a chance
Speaker 5: to knock out Duke. That's the real magic. It's true, right, Like, Okay,
Speaker 5: your basketball career is over, you just played your forty
Speaker 5: fifth year at Mount Mary or canyon or wherever. You know,
Speaker 5: you got the real estate name tag printed out already.
Speaker 5: But you can hit a corner three and knock out
Speaker 5: a one seed. That's what I live for. I do
Speaker 5: like the Alabama team. I think Sears is going to
Speaker 5: be a winning player in the NBA, the small point guard.
Speaker 5: And then Jeremiah Fears, the bigger point guard from Oklahoma.
Speaker 5: I like him quite a bit.
Speaker 6: Six or four point guard from Oklahoma with a name
Speaker 6: that rules, Jeremiah Fears and five sounds like he should
Speaker 6: have been one of the children of the corn Jeremiah Fears.
Speaker 5: If you take it as a sentence, it would make
Speaker 5: him contimid kind of last.
Speaker 2: Name to go both ways like that could be great,
Speaker 2: make for great headlines celebrating him.
Speaker 4: Or if he's a bus then they're gonna stop all
Speaker 4: over that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's actually pronounced Fears. Yeah, yeah, gouy, Sorry, it's uh.
Speaker 6: I know it looks like I'm scared of stuff, but
Speaker 6: it's actually fear actual hand situation. Yeah, exactly. All right,
Speaker 6: back to the NBA. Even though we were technically talking
Speaker 6: about the NBA. Don't don't get mad at us NBA
Speaker 6: because we were talking about prospects.
Speaker 4: These are future employees.
Speaker 6: Exactly. All Right, game of the week, Miles, what was it?
Speaker 6: Thunder at Bucks? What was our game of the week?
Speaker 6: That one ended one one, one oh six.
Speaker 2: Thunder's close in the first quarter, then then incrementally got
Speaker 2: further and further away.
Speaker 3: Mass Shave.
Speaker 4: Shaye was fantastic watching alex Caruso. He was. He also
Speaker 4: looked up just great. I mean, Jabari and I are
Speaker 4: just talking about.
Speaker 2: Like he's like kind of like this subtle guy who
Speaker 2: has like this low key flavor that pops out every
Speaker 2: now and then you're like, oh, that's right, that's right,
Speaker 2: you have that in your back.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Hartenstein was eleven for fifteen from the floor, put up
Speaker 2: twenty four and twelve. Chet also look sixteen and eight.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think a lot of people were looking
Speaker 2: at this like, Okay, well let's let's see have these
Speaker 2: two matchup. Okay, see, clearly a contender. Shay is unbelievable still,
Speaker 2: I mean, this man creates more separation than a divorce judge.
Speaker 3: And wow, yeah yeah, I call him the divorce judge.
Speaker 4: Yeah they call it.
Speaker 2: Oh you mean, welcome to Shay Gil and Alexander's divorce court.
Speaker 6: Okay, they call him infidelity because he creates more separations.
Speaker 4: But I mean, Ty, what do you think of watching this?
Speaker 4: You think the thunder?
Speaker 2: I mean, based on what we're seeing, the stats, their performances,
Speaker 2: the just the cold consistency, I think this is a
Speaker 2: clearcut favorite. Or what do you where you looking at
Speaker 2: in terms of just the finals before we maybe zoom
Speaker 2: in on the Bucks a little bit.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd say right now I'm probably pretty close to
Speaker 5: taking them versus the field in the West. I think
Speaker 5: it's kind of a toss up for me, to be clear,
Speaker 5: I would pick them over any one team. I do
Speaker 5: think there. I can't quit the Lakers just because you know,
Speaker 5: I'm a simple guy. I see Lebron, I see Luca,
Speaker 5: and you could say Reeves two, but really those two
Speaker 5: are the main attraction there together on a team, and
Speaker 5: I just go, how does anyone stop them at all
Speaker 5: in a seven game series when they're both going to
Speaker 5: be out there for the whole series and together for
Speaker 5: a lot of it. The Warriors Devil Magic seems to
Speaker 5: be back on. I don't think that they've got enough
Speaker 5: for Okay, see, but again, like I see Staph, I
Speaker 5: see Jimmy Butler, and it's like, Okay, that's that's a
Speaker 5: lot to stop in the playoff series. But okay, see
Speaker 5: definitely as the best, deepest, most complete team. I mean
Speaker 5: that Bucks game generously for the Bucks, didn't mention Okay,
Speaker 5: see both teams on a back to back. Okay, see
Speaker 5: traveling to Milwaukee and without two starters, one of them
Speaker 5: an All Star and still just kind of handle business.
Speaker 5: So uh yeah, it's hard to pick against them. SHA's
Speaker 5: playing like the best in the world, and their depth
Speaker 5: just as great, and Dagenault has them all just flowing.
Speaker 5: I mean, they they roll no matter who's in who's out,
Speaker 5: and their team is just beyond impressive.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's like you have to look at their strengths,
Speaker 6: like you like, their their depth is like the thing
Speaker 6: I see a lot of people being like, well, that's
Speaker 6: not gonna matter as much in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, but it's also not going to hurt them.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're still gonna be pretty Like all their players
Speaker 6: are still gonna be really good, you know. I feel like,
Speaker 6: and what once they get to the playoffs, I don't
Speaker 6: know if i'd take them field like versus the field,
Speaker 6: but it definitely, they seem to be the favorite. Would
Speaker 6: you take them over the Celtics, Like, do you think
Speaker 6: because the betting odds have shifted so that I think,
Speaker 6: for the first time all season, Oklahoma City is the
Speaker 6: favorite to win the title.
Speaker 5: I probably would take them over the Celtics. Something about
Speaker 5: the Celtics all year to me has just felt off.
Speaker 5: So it's a little bit about that, not totally just
Speaker 5: I think okay See is just flat out better. Like
Speaker 5: I think the way the Celtics played last season, I
Speaker 5: would take them, if that makes sense, over this year's
Speaker 5: okay See. Yeah, it's like that the three point shooting
Speaker 5: for Jalen Brown and Drew Holliday has trailed off Drew
Speaker 5: in general. Has they still have their injury issues. I
Speaker 5: just feel like they're shooting as many threes, but they
Speaker 5: don't have the crazy success rate right now and it's
Speaker 5: holding them back a little. They're still better than almost everyone.
Speaker 5: They're still match up nightmares for almost everyone, but I
Speaker 5: don't think their matchup nightmares for Oka See. And that's
Speaker 5: why I think okay See. I think kind of Shay's
Speaker 5: brilliance could put them over the top there.
Speaker 3: Miles, I tell you, I love this guy. I tell
Speaker 3: you I love this guy? Or what tell you this guy?
Speaker 4: Welcome to the new podcast.
Speaker 3: Do you how do you think?
Speaker 6: All right, how do you think they match up against
Speaker 6: the Calves? He's think the Calves have a chance against
Speaker 6: the Celtics in a seven game series.
Speaker 5: I think they do. I think I would. I would
Speaker 5: put the Calves as very slight favorites to come out
Speaker 5: of the East right now, not not over the field
Speaker 5: like okay, see, I favor the Calves a little bit.
Speaker 5: I think kind of like the Thunder. Their system is
Speaker 5: just great and super dialed in. They are the team
Speaker 5: this year like last years Celtics where they are just
Speaker 5: striping everything right, Like everyone on that team can knock
Speaker 5: down a shot. They're super deep there. They went from
Speaker 5: no wings to like a lot of really capable wings
Speaker 5: like that last year. You know, Okay, Dean Wade's a
Speaker 5: nice player, relying on a lot of Dean Wade to
Speaker 5: do stuff, whereas now he almost seems like an extra guy.
Speaker 5: Same with the Coro, and I think that's exactly what
Speaker 5: they needed. And I think the difference I've seen this
Speaker 5: comp of like, oh you know, they're like the Budenholzer Hawks,
Speaker 5: like they're gonna go and lose, doesn't matter how much
Speaker 5: they win. The Budenholzer Hawks did not have a guy
Speaker 5: like this version of Donovan Mitchell, who've seen put teams
Speaker 5: on his back in a playoff series and take it home.
Speaker 5: And that to me is the difference. So I think
Speaker 5: the Calves are really legit and I think them in
Speaker 5: the Thunder both like these are not regular seasons teams.
Speaker 5: To me, these are just great basketball teams.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Donovan Mitchell, I feel like we've seen him do
Speaker 6: things in playoff series, like we've also seen him have
Speaker 6: off series, but yeah, when he takes over a playoff series,
Speaker 6: it has been as impressive as like anything we've seen
Speaker 6: from a like a player just putting a team on
Speaker 6: their back. That like, that's one thing that I feel
Speaker 6: like gets underrated a little bit, is just that they
Speaker 6: might have the better, like number one player than the Celtics.
Speaker 6: I Mean, everybody loves Tatum, but I do feel like
Speaker 6: Tatum can fade a little bit in big moments, and
Speaker 6: I don't. I don't feel like Mitchell is going to
Speaker 6: fade now. Granted, like Tatum might have just needed to
Speaker 6: get that first one under his belt, like I mean,
Speaker 6: Steph wasn't great in their first championship run, and then
Speaker 6: like once he got that first one under his belt,
Speaker 6: he became Steph. Maybe this is the year that Tatum
Speaker 6: just shuts up all the doubters. But I do that
Speaker 6: is the one thing for the Cavs that I kind
Speaker 6: of like having, you know, when you just need a bucket,
Speaker 6: I kind of like having Donovan Mitchell over having Jason
Speaker 6: Tatum as the person you go to to get that bucket.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I totally agree, And I think Tatum,
Speaker 5: I mean Mitchell quote unquote settles for jumpers too. I
Speaker 5: think Tatum the biggest thing for him, you see is
Speaker 5: when he just kind of has the advantage and takes
Speaker 5: the contested MIDI when he could probably go to the
Speaker 5: rim more with that size, or maybe take a three
Speaker 5: instead of the long two. Mitchell, I do I agree
Speaker 5: with you. I trust him a little more in the
Speaker 5: half court. I just I'll never I'm hung up forever
Speaker 5: on that rookie year series. Yeah, I mean, like Prime Russ,
Speaker 5: a great version of Paul George, and he just went
Speaker 5: in there and just whooped them. And maybe maybe that's
Speaker 5: you shouldn't get that hung up on that, But that
Speaker 5: was just one of the coolest NBA moments for me,
Speaker 5: and I trust that guy in a series, especially when
Speaker 5: the team around him, you know, was much much better
Speaker 5: than those Jazz teams.
Speaker 6: The supporting Yeah, agreed on the Tatum front, I do
Speaker 6: just want to call this out because the Celtics are.
Speaker 3: Shooting a lot of threes this season.
Speaker 6: But to put it in perspective, how many threes they're shooting,
Speaker 6: the record for a Celtics player for the most threes
Speaker 6: they've hit in a season in the history of the
Speaker 6: franchise is two hundred and forty five with fourteen games
Speaker 6: to go. Jason Tatum is that two hundred and twenty
Speaker 6: seven threes made. Derek White is a two hundred and
Speaker 6: twenty five threes made. Peyton Pritchard is at two hundred
Speaker 6: and twenty three. They're all going to destroy the franchise record.
Speaker 6: Like it's not even gonna be close that that's how
Speaker 6: many threes they're taking and you know, knocking them down.
Speaker 6: But I mean, Tatum's thirty five percent on ten attempts
Speaker 6: this season. Pritchard's just under forty two percent on eight attempts.
Speaker 6: Derek White thirty nine percent on nine attempts. So but
Speaker 6: it's they are putting them up from long run.
Speaker 4: Yeah, should take a break and come back to the bucks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's take a little break and come back to
Speaker 3: the bucks. Let's let's take a little break.
Speaker 4: They can break, make a few bucks, come back and talk.
Speaker 7: About the bucks right after this, and we're back, and
Speaker 7: we're back, and we're back a lot of bucks.
Speaker 4: I remember, what was it, Jack? What did you say
Speaker 4: when Tye came on?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 4: Did you say fall fourth in the Eastern Conference?
Speaker 3: That must fourth in the Eastern Conference?
Speaker 6: Well, because we were like, ty how's it going? He
Speaker 6: was like, things are great for me professionally, guys killing
Speaker 6: it I think was a direct quote crushing it and
Speaker 6: turn that into like seventeen syllables. And then he was like,
Speaker 6: I mean the bucks, it's obviously not great.
Speaker 3: And I jumped down.
Speaker 6: I was just like, wha fourth in the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 3: That must be he's so hard.
Speaker 6: No, I'm I'm I'm thrilled with how the seventy six
Speaker 6: ers are understanding the assignment and doing what they need
Speaker 6: to do. So no complaints for me there?
Speaker 5: Did you hear that? I think I think I just
Speaker 5: heard Quinton Grimes sprain and ankle while we were talking.
Speaker 5: Probably not going to be able to play.
Speaker 3: Love what we're saying from Grimes. Believe he looks We'll
Speaker 3: get to that. He looks great.
Speaker 5: That's you should send over another second round pick, another
Speaker 5: second round pick, just to be nice. You know, I
Speaker 5: think the actual one was not enough.
Speaker 6: We've got assets on this roster, that's what we've got.
Speaker 3: We got forty point a night.
Speaker 6: Guys, if you have the right circumstances, mix to send
Speaker 6: our way.
Speaker 3: M all right.
Speaker 6: So the Bucks, the story at the beginning of the
Speaker 6: year was like the Bucks and the Sixers, what happened?
Speaker 6: And then you know, we're back here, like your loser
Speaker 6: friend being like, yeah, I used to know him when
Speaker 6: he used to be used to be cool. Now he
Speaker 6: thinks he's all great and stuff. But yeah, you guys
Speaker 6: started winning games like you were expected to. And the
Speaker 6: Bucks are now thirty eight and twenty nine, fourth in
Speaker 6: the Eastern Conference, tied with the Pacers in the lost column.
Speaker 6: So it's not clear cut that you'll be in the
Speaker 6: four seed. But how are you feeling heading into the playoffs?
Speaker 5: Not great for all the you know, they definitely salvaged
Speaker 5: the season. They started two and eight, to your point,
Speaker 5: and the kind of you know, it felt really bad
Speaker 5: because some of those losses were it just felt kind
Speaker 5: of like the basketball was apathetic and that's not what
Speaker 5: you want to see. And like your team's home opener.
Speaker 5: You know, we're not talking about mid March here. It's
Speaker 5: like Game three and they were just totally flat against
Speaker 5: like the Bulls. It's like, Okay, it's not ideal. Can
Speaker 5: we wake up now and play the good basketball, please?
Speaker 5: But they pulled it together. Big trade deadline for them,
Speaker 5: shifting around a lot of parts, of course, and things
Speaker 5: geled for a bit after that said, they have not
Speaker 5: beaten any of the teams above them in the Eastern
Speaker 5: Conference a single time this season. They of one Knicks
Speaker 5: game left later next week, and after that, if they
Speaker 5: lose that one, they will have gotten swept by the
Speaker 5: top three seeds. So anytime that you're in the fourth
Speaker 5: seed and you've never beat the top three seeds the
Speaker 5: whole year, you're probably not feeling great about being able
Speaker 5: to do so in the playoffs. Some of those games
Speaker 5: were close earlier, but like that thunder game we talked about,
Speaker 5: they have just felt a cup below those teams. It
Speaker 5: feels like they need to do some soul searching kind
Speaker 5: of click and go on to a run heading into
Speaker 5: the playoffs. In this West Coast trip, yere a good
Speaker 5: chance for them to do that. But unless they kind
Speaker 5: of put a bit of a monstrous run together to
Speaker 5: end the playoffs. You know, I think they can beat Indiana,
Speaker 5: but I don't trust them against the better teams in
Speaker 5: the East right now.
Speaker 6: Doc Rivers probably just holding some things back. Notoriously, you guy,
Speaker 6: bad regular season coach, but great in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm sorry I had that backwards. I'm talking sorry
Speaker 3: about that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, it's it's not ideal, but it's also fun
Speaker 6: to have on your squad heading into the playoffs. Somebody
Speaker 6: who has taken a team on their back and won
Speaker 6: won the NBA Championship in the past five years.
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Do you think it's a situation where he could just
Speaker 6: take over? Where are the matchups just too challenging for
Speaker 6: you guys?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I think that's the path forward realistically, is I mean,
Speaker 5: the last time we saw Yannis play a full series
Speaker 5: without Chris Middleton playing at all, he was able to
Speaker 5: take that Celtics team that went to the finals and
Speaker 5: lost to the Warriors to seven games and had the
Speaker 5: lead in a potential close out game six, and Tatum
Speaker 5: was brilliant, And that's how have we ragged on Tatum earlier.
Speaker 5: I'll give him miss Flowers there. It was brilliant to
Speaker 5: kind of steal that way and bring it back to Boston.
Speaker 5: Then the gas ran out and Damian Lillard played like
Speaker 5: barely any games for the Bucks, but his first half
Speaker 5: against Indiana last year was a forty point half. So
Speaker 5: the optimistic case for the Bucks is certainly we've got
Speaker 5: some more athletic defenders now, which you need around around Dame,
Speaker 5: and if we're even close in games, we should. You know,
Speaker 5: this is again like the optimist case, rely on those
Speaker 5: two guys who are both absolute playoff killers that we've
Speaker 5: seen in the past, and have them just outscore teams
Speaker 5: going down the stretch, get enough stops. You know, Gianna's
Speaker 5: timely defense, We've seen that from him before, and they
Speaker 5: can win games that way. And I think again against Indiana,
Speaker 5: for sure, against Cleveland, that's a lot tougher. If you
Speaker 5: have a bad eight minute stretch against Cleveland, you might
Speaker 5: just be out of that game. So I think their
Speaker 5: defense has been good. Their offense they need to work
Speaker 5: things out. They're spacing hasn't been great lately with the
Speaker 5: new starters, but I think that they'll have a puncher's
Speaker 5: chance against almost anyone if as long as they have
Speaker 5: Damon Gianna's healthy.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 6: The potential second round East Eastern Conference with Celtics versus Nicks,
Speaker 6: Calves versus Bucks is super fun, like well that both
Speaker 6: of those would be all time matchups. I didn't watch
Speaker 6: all for the losses against the Calves, like, are there
Speaker 6: were there reasons to be helpful there or was it
Speaker 6: just a drubbing? Or how do you feel about your
Speaker 6: matchup against the Caves.
Speaker 5: Yeah, one of the early ones, I think Giannis and
Speaker 5: Dame either played together and one or two of them,
Speaker 5: so the games with just one of them, the Bucks
Speaker 5: didn't really stand a chance, which you'd kind of expect
Speaker 5: against a team that's that great. One of the games
Speaker 5: where they both played, I think it came down to
Speaker 5: a Dame buzzer beater he missed after Mitchell hit a
Speaker 5: clutch you know, Iso shot to give the Calves a
Speaker 5: really late lead. And then I want to say one
Speaker 5: of the other games was relatively close to that they
Speaker 5: both played, so they haven't gotten totally annihilated by the Caves.
Speaker 5: They just have not gotten over the hump at the
Speaker 5: end of games, right. I think that series is really
Speaker 5: interesting because Dame should be able to find some joy
Speaker 5: against that small backcourt. I mean, they can put you know,
Speaker 5: Hunter whoever they started the three on him, but they
Speaker 5: started a lot of a couple of small guards, which
Speaker 5: is going to be how Boston and everyone tries to
Speaker 5: target the Calves and the Bucks can do that too,
Speaker 5: and both teams are so big and they can and
Speaker 5: stay big for a lot of the games, which makes
Speaker 5: it interesting. The Bucks historically, if they can keep Brook
Speaker 5: Lopez on the floor, that's their best chance because what
Speaker 5: he gives them is that weak side rim protector, and
Speaker 5: I think against the Calves they'll probably be able to
Speaker 5: do that. And Brooke looked good in their last game
Speaker 5: against Cleveland, so backup center Jericho Sims, who now is
Speaker 5: probably out until the playoffs unfortunately, but I think they
Speaker 5: have a shot. It's going to be a weird matchup.
Speaker 5: It's going to be more bigs involved in almost any
Speaker 5: other series. I think you'll see around the playoffs. But
Speaker 5: that said, I think the Bucks have a chance they're
Speaker 5: depending on. Really, to me, I think it's like Garland
Speaker 5: and Mitchell, if those two can just tear up Milwaukee's
Speaker 5: guard guards. That's a weird term, But then I think
Speaker 5: that the Cavs can win. I think Milwaukee needs to
Speaker 5: hope that they can force those guys into some misses
Speaker 5: from three point range and try to own the paint
Speaker 5: on defense.
Speaker 3: Just pack it in.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as you know, watching my dear Kyle Kuzma on
Speaker 2: his NBA Jarreney, seeing him in Milwaukee, feeling Mike looking
Speaker 2: like he's fitting in, although I see like on Twitter
Speaker 2: and stuff like the Bucks fans aren't doesn't feel like
Speaker 2: they're a big fan of Cus. I mean, I get
Speaker 2: there's other things involved with that too, but I mean generally,
Speaker 2: what's your feeling on your kus like working with this
Speaker 2: group and also like you know, and hand in hand
Speaker 2: with that moving.
Speaker 6: I see his outfits as he rolls up to games,
Speaker 6: and I'm like, this is a workmanlike guy with the Midwestern.
Speaker 3: It's just.
Speaker 5: That. Yeah, I think a lot of the emotions for
Speaker 5: coups from some of those people you're seeing Miles are certainly,
Speaker 5: you know, we traded Chris Middleton for this guy, and yeah,
Speaker 5: and I think there's just a difference of golf and
Speaker 5: what Chris actually is at this point or at least
Speaker 5: this point in this season, and you know, what he's
Speaker 5: meant to the Bucks and what he's done in the
Speaker 5: past and everything else. So that's part of it. I
Speaker 5: also think Kuzma, you know, he is We've said this before,
Speaker 5: he's approached this season the Bucks part of this season
Speaker 5: like when you meet your girlfriend's parents for the first time.
Speaker 5: Like checks in the games. He's screening and re screening.
Speaker 5: He's making the extra pass, He's taken charges and it's appreciated,
Speaker 5: it's held up. He's still playing that way. He has
Speaker 5: been probably their best perimeter defender since they got him.
Speaker 5: They don't really use yiannis On to do that much
Speaker 5: in the regular season, and he's tried hard and he's
Speaker 5: been really effective on defense. Actually had some great possessions
Speaker 5: against Shay in the OKC game over the weekend. The
Speaker 5: offense has been the problem. So they're starting him. They're
Speaker 5: starting Giannis and Brook Lopez and those three guys. I mean, honest,
Speaker 5: obviously just doesn't really take the threes anymore. The media
Speaker 5: is there now, they need those other two guys to
Speaker 5: help space the floor even without being great three point shooters,
Speaker 5: and Brooke has done a pretty good job, you know,
Speaker 5: kind of cutting to the rim and doing the tight
Speaker 5: screen to make room for Jannis. Kuzma's kind of been
Speaker 5: the one where it's been a little difficult. You know.
Speaker 5: The threes have not fallen very much, and his rim
Speaker 5: efficiency has been down a bit too, So I think
Speaker 5: for him, he's got to figure out to maybe just
Speaker 5: better work within the spaces that are there with that
Speaker 5: offense and score at the rim at a much higher
Speaker 5: degree or maybe cut more, which he tries to do,
Speaker 5: but that's been their work in progress. But if he
Speaker 5: could figure out the offense and help that group score
Speaker 5: more defensively, he's been a huge boost for them, kind
Speaker 5: of like we saw just giving a big athlete like
Speaker 5: the MAVs got with PJ Washington last year.
Speaker 4: Chris Middleson.
Speaker 2: Also, he looks like he's I mean, obviously it's a
Speaker 2: completely different environment on the Wizards, but.
Speaker 4: You know, I saw I saw him doing all the
Speaker 4: solid beating the pistons, So.
Speaker 5: They're they're trimming down those minutes because I think him smart.
Speaker 5: We're doing a little bit too much of that winning
Speaker 5: basketball and that is not the path to Cooper Foy right.
Speaker 3: Now, No, because ankles look tired.
Speaker 5: My god, with those two guys. I mean, you know,
Speaker 5: you know what fair right is like, yeah, you know what, Yeah,
Speaker 5: you're right, you're right.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 6: Just taking a quick look around the league, Houston is rolling.
Speaker 6: Like usually there's a teams will like kind of come
Speaker 6: on towards the end of the season and kind of
Speaker 6: enter the playoffs on a hot streak. And Houston has
Speaker 6: won seventh straight. They're now the two seed again out West.
Speaker 2: Remember the last year we were talking about them creeping
Speaker 2: on people into the plane and now were.
Speaker 4: Like, oh, okay, yes, they're just coming together.
Speaker 3: It's coming together straight up. What like what a coaching job? Unbelievable.
Speaker 6: I don't know, Like, do we think there's any world
Speaker 6: where they get.
Speaker 3: To the Western Conference finals? Let's say the West is
Speaker 3: just I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm excited for their resurgence, but I don't
Speaker 2: I just don't think this that's.
Speaker 6: The current standings. Ok see one Houston two? Uh, they
Speaker 6: would be matching up with worst case scenario for them, Minnesota,
Speaker 6: who's in the seven right now, or the Clippers, who
Speaker 6: I think I think they could beat the Clippers, or.
Speaker 3: Sacramento or Dallas. But I mean, obviously best case scenario
Speaker 3: for them.
Speaker 6: But they Denver, Lakers, Memphis, Golden State. They're gonna have
Speaker 6: to play some of those teams, right, you know, it's
Speaker 6: possibly two of them. They are the team that seems
Speaker 6: the least likely of of those top six. I'd say, okay,
Speaker 6: see Houston, Denver, Lakers, Memphis Golden State to get to the.
Speaker 3: Western Conference finals. But I don't know.
Speaker 6: I've also, like I probably haven't watched as much of
Speaker 6: them as I've watched of those other teams.
Speaker 4: So yeah, well.
Speaker 2: That that last that run of seven, I mean, like,
Speaker 2: no disrespect, but they played the Sixers, the Bulls, that
Speaker 2: was you know, okay, that little bit more respect. They're
Speaker 2: a MAVs team that's threadbare. Yeah, the Sun's magic and
Speaker 2: two against the Pelicans, and they're seven of their last
Speaker 2: thirteen are going to be against people that are actually.
Speaker 4: Like in the conversation on the Western Conference, I.
Speaker 2: Think that's that's the real test, I think, to see
Speaker 2: what happens when they deal with that run of games.
Speaker 6: But yeah, that is a I was like, you know,
Speaker 6: I don't like to get two down into the details
Speaker 6: of like strength to schedule, but that is yeah, threadbare is.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, the maps.
Speaker 2: I just like just to continue to just feel like
Speaker 2: have like deep stress anxiety when I see how that like.
Speaker 2: But they had like seven fit players the other night
Speaker 2: and now seeing oh man, your boy over there now
Speaker 2: on the sixers, Quinn Grimes quick, Quentin Grimes just go
Speaker 2: from like what averaging ten points with the Mavericks, then
Speaker 2: like having a forty six point night the other night.
Speaker 4: And averaging over twenty. Yeah, like he's averaging over twenty points.
Speaker 6: Now, Miles, funny you brought that up. His last five
Speaker 6: games thirty five points, five assists, seven boards, twenty nine points,
Speaker 6: three assays, four boards, twenty eight six assists, two rebounds,
Speaker 6: forty six points, four assists, thirteen boards.
Speaker 5: Oh my.
Speaker 6: And he started the month scoring a career high forty
Speaker 6: one in a win over the Warriors. And that's when
Speaker 6: I was like, is this guy gonna cause problems?
Speaker 3: Like an evil ceo? You know it's gonna.
Speaker 4: Cause problems for us.
Speaker 6: We just beat the Warriors, rule follower, but now he
Speaker 6: is doing his job and he just he just put
Speaker 6: up forty six and thirteen boards, and you know, we
Speaker 6: and we got one step closer to keeping our pick.
Speaker 6: For people who haven't been listening, the Sixers, if they
Speaker 6: if they fall outside of the top six, they don't
Speaker 6: have their pick next year, which would be bad, but
Speaker 6: at least it would go to a team and need
Speaker 6: the Thunder so wild.
Speaker 5: I feel like people joom casting like against the Sixers
Speaker 5: are not fully realizing that you just absolutely cannot hand
Speaker 5: the oka see Thunder a top six pick a lot
Speaker 5: of pick.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, because they're gonna get it right. They're going
Speaker 6: to get the best player available at that point.
Speaker 3: You don't have to worry about us. We'll mess up
Speaker 3: the pick. Don't worry.
Speaker 6: We're the ones who traded to get Markel Fuls instead
Speaker 6: of Jason Tatum, Like we traded that. Guys, We're you
Speaker 6: don't have to worry about us.
Speaker 5: But the Rockets, I think will know for sure their
Speaker 5: last five games Thunder at Warriors, at Clippers, at Lakers home, Denver.
Speaker 5: You know, if they come out of that still in
Speaker 5: the two seed, then maybe I'll believe going in, But
Speaker 5: I don't really like, can Jalen Green catch fire like
Speaker 5: one of these Jamal Murray playoff runs. I would tend
Speaker 5: to not think so, but it would probably take something
Speaker 5: like that. I just their defense is great. I just
Speaker 5: don't think they have the half court juice.
Speaker 6: So who do we think we're looking at in the
Speaker 6: second round? It sounds like we think it's going to
Speaker 6: be Out West thunder Lakers, Nuggets if that, if that
Speaker 6: ends up being possible, and Golden State or the Timberwolves,
Speaker 6: which we that that will be my don't look now team,
Speaker 6: but the Timberwolves are on a on a tear as well. Yeah,
Speaker 6: those seem like the most likely candidates. Maybe throw Memphis
Speaker 6: in there as well as as a possibility.
Speaker 3: Is that what we're thinking?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm just looking. I'm like, yeah, that's that feels
Speaker 4: that feels solid. That feels about right.
Speaker 5: There's gonna be one series out there, at least one
Speaker 5: series out there where we're looking at it and we're like, wait,
Speaker 5: one of these teams is going to lose in the
Speaker 5: first round. Yeah, right, like that three to six right now,
Speaker 5: it would be Denver Golden State. Yeah, oh, one of
Speaker 5: those teams probably, I mean I would assume I don't know.
Speaker 5: I think Denver wins that. I don't really know. But
Speaker 5: either way, like that team going home like we just
Speaker 5: got Jimmy Butler and paid them all this money, or
Speaker 5: Denver we have Nicole Jokic who probably just put up
Speaker 5: sixty sixty sixty as we were recording in the first round.
Speaker 5: Is gonna is gonna hurt man. So I think before
Speaker 5: we get in the second round, like, it's not going
Speaker 5: to be the best for probably because of that. But
Speaker 5: I think I think we're going to see okay, see
Speaker 5: probably Lakers, and then one of Denver Golden State, and
Speaker 5: then another team.
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, it is time for my don't look now.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I haven't really figured out how to
Speaker 3: make that into a thing. Don't look now.
Speaker 6: But Minnesota is absolutely peaking at the right time. They
Speaker 6: won eight in a row before losing an overtime to
Speaker 6: the Pacers on Monday night. Anthony Edwards had a chance
Speaker 6: to win at the buzzer and regulation, but missed a
Speaker 6: three Now oh for fourteen on game winners, which seems impossible.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but those shots are hard.
Speaker 6: Okay, but yeah, there, I mean, he's playing as well
Speaker 6: as he played all he's played all season, and like
Speaker 6: it just seems like everybody's kind of gelling and coming together.
Speaker 3: A little bit now after a kind of a rocky start.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, know why more players don't just decide to
Speaker 5: become the best three point shooter in the league on
Speaker 5: high volume. I think more players should do that, Like
Speaker 5: Anthony Edwards has this year kind of dumb that more
Speaker 5: guys don't do that.
Speaker 3: In my opinion, yeah, they should try.
Speaker 5: I mean, they've got a hoophead by any means, but
Speaker 5: I just think that's what I would do if I
Speaker 5: was If I was an NBA player, I'm going to
Speaker 5: be really good at the start after Yeah, really, And.
Speaker 3: We always talk about the hell with them?
Speaker 6: Shot making is an underrated skill, you know, making shot
Speaker 6: making the shots the like when you take a shot
Speaker 6: at the basket, you want to make it, make it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be good.
Speaker 4: That's it. He developing that mid range. I'm like, okay, see,
Speaker 4: looks pretty easy. He did it all twelve.
Speaker 6: Julius Randall has also just kind of is back to
Speaker 6: playing as well as we've seen him play in a
Speaker 6: long in a long time. So yeah, it'll be again,
Speaker 6: like we're gonna see some matchups in that first round
Speaker 6: where we're like that, that's wild that one of these
Speaker 6: teams is gonna be out, you know. For for Minnesota,
Speaker 6: I guess not that surprising, seeing how their season had
Speaker 6: gone up to a couple of weeks ago. But heading
Speaker 6: into the season, I think we all had them having
Speaker 6: a pretty good season being there in the second round
Speaker 6: at least, and now they seem to be playing like that.
Speaker 6: But it's only so many spots left in the second round.
Speaker 6: I believe four teams. Let me just check my math
Speaker 6: here real quick, four teams in the Western Conference are
Speaker 6: going to make the second round based on preliminary calculations.
Speaker 6: So there's gonna there's gonna be some sad some sad
Speaker 6: fans out there.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Not everyone's gonna get a chair, you know, when we're
Speaker 2: playing musical chairs, and someone's gonna be out there lacking.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, let's take a break.
Speaker 2: And we come back, Ti Wendish, it's not for the
Speaker 2: fourth quarter rapid fire round of questioning.
Speaker 4: You poor soul will be right back and we're back.
Speaker 3: We are back.
Speaker 4: It's the fourth quarter rabbid fire around questioning, TaiWhen iss,
Speaker 4: you've been.
Speaker 2: A fantastic the time We're just gonna ask you some questions.
Speaker 3: You better repeat them as quick as you can.
Speaker 4: When you don't, we will be straight up East Coast
Speaker 4: rude to you. Okay, yeah yeah.
Speaker 5: As a Midwesterner that is actually quite intimidating.
Speaker 2: Even as a West Coaster, I'm like, man, the way there, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's but it's comforting. I do like there's something even
Speaker 2: when East Coast people are mean, there's a kindness about it.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 6: When people see how tough I talk, they're like, you
Speaker 6: must be from the East Coast.
Speaker 3: Who sure am pallo?
Speaker 2: This guy's this guy can see the Atlantic from his
Speaker 2: house the way he's talking.
Speaker 3: But here we go.
Speaker 4: It's a fourth guard rapifire question.
Speaker 3: You already know the rules, Brian, start the clock? So mean,
Speaker 3: so much coaching.
Speaker 4: Sorry, sorry, I'm having to tap into something. Man, we're getting.
Speaker 3: We're off to a start.
Speaker 4: Man, who's gonna go first? Jack? You or me?
Speaker 3: Miles? I would love it if you went first.
Speaker 4: All right, here we go. Who's the more dominant player?
Speaker 2: Tie Yannis in Hakeem's era or Hakeem intoday's game.
Speaker 5: Hakeem in today's game?
Speaker 4: Wow?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just they don't we don't have the centers
Speaker 5: for there's no one has the capabilities. I mean, they
Speaker 5: had big, strong centers back then. Hakeem in today's game
Speaker 5: is just destroying pretty much every single team. There's no
Speaker 5: answer for him.
Speaker 6: All right, let me give you another one. Yannis in
Speaker 6: Shaq's era or Shaq in today's game.
Speaker 5: I'm honestly say it's gonna sound like I'm hating. Honest Yeah,
Speaker 5: I just don't think the league is built for like
Speaker 5: the way Yannis plays now, teams are crying like, oh,
Speaker 5: it's all offensive falls. We can't like we hit in
Speaker 5: the weight room. Shack is like to the m to
Speaker 5: be more. I Meannest is faster and whatever, but Shack's power.
Speaker 5: I just don't know who to hang in there with them.
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, next question, why do you hate Gianni's Why
Speaker 6: do you hate player on your team?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I am, you know, working to get him
Speaker 5: out of here, you know, like Katie, I'm the Warriors,
Speaker 5: like just I want to have all the power, you know,
Speaker 5: I want I want to feel powerful. No, I I
Speaker 5: just you know, I tried to be even though I
Speaker 5: didn't get to watch those guys, I try to be.
Speaker 5: I'll watch alf a bit, but try to be respectful
Speaker 5: of the greats to counter all the plumber talk. And
Speaker 5: I think those two players with you know, the centers
Speaker 5: today being like all switchable and three shooting, those guys
Speaker 5: were just like they'd leave bruised egos and sterns.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah yeah, whereas trying to go into the paint
Speaker 6: when it's like packed against Charles Oakley and like back
Speaker 6: then you were legally allowed to punch somebody.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, close line legal defense back then.
Speaker 4: Yeah then, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, these centers now they got like the
Speaker 2: bone density if I'm cook spaghetti. So it's not gonna
Speaker 2: he's gonna be ugly now, Ty, you can pick any
Speaker 2: former Bucks legend to make a run with this current squad.
Speaker 4: You can pluck them out from and.
Speaker 2: Put them in your DeLorean and dial it up to
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five.
Speaker 4: Who are you taking on this journey?
Speaker 5: It's really hard. I'm gonna go with Ray Allen trying Bucks.
Speaker 5: Ray Allen. I just it's really hard to not say
Speaker 5: Kareem because he's you know, has a goat case. Still
Speaker 5: youngsters don't want to hear it. But the man won
Speaker 5: at every level. But I think Ray is just such
Speaker 5: a perfect fit. And this team kind of has like
Speaker 5: this fluctuating two guard spot and you just put a
Speaker 5: total two way menace who was still I think has
Speaker 5: the three's record in Bucks history, which is crazy because
Speaker 5: seeing how the game has changed, he is just the
Speaker 5: perfect fit. Extra Dame and they would they would rain
Speaker 5: down hell fire with the honest pounding it down low.
Speaker 6: All right, would you take Prime Ray Allen into this
Speaker 6: current team or Prime Ray Allen and Prime Kareem slash
Speaker 6: Luau center in place of Yannis.
Speaker 3: He's gonna say, he's going to say Luiser he hate him.
Speaker 5: It's close taking it.
Speaker 2: You were talking a little bit about three points and
Speaker 2: sounded like you knew a.
Speaker 4: Bit about your the Bucks stats and some trivia.
Speaker 2: Let's do a little trivia real quick, ty, who's the
Speaker 2: all time franchise leader in three point percentage?
Speaker 5: Three point percentage? Grayson Allen?
Speaker 3: No sill Kurry.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he probably made probably made ten threes that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it counts.
Speaker 6: Its forty seven point six on twenty three attempts. This
Speaker 6: guy's They treated three point shooters like junk ball pictures
Speaker 6: back then. This guy's gimmick.
Speaker 3: He shoots it from all the way out the three
Speaker 3: point line.
Speaker 4: I'm scared all.
Speaker 6: Time franchise leader in blocks per game.
Speaker 5: What do you think, ty, they didn't count him enough
Speaker 5: when Kareem played? Is it Larry Sanders.
Speaker 3: It is Kareem? Actually, yeah, I.
Speaker 5: Always forget when they started. I know it wasn't his
Speaker 5: first couple of seasons, but obviously they captured enough of them.
Speaker 6: I like the idea that they didn't count count them enough.
Speaker 6: They just like they're like, oh, we should count blocks
Speaker 6: this one on this game.
Speaker 3: It was like every fourth game they counted.
Speaker 4: Counted, count block tonight maybe.
Speaker 3: Apparently if you do rebounds again.
Speaker 5: And when they were when they sports writers wrote about
Speaker 5: Bill Russell, they'd like casually mentioned like every two weeks, like, yeah,
Speaker 5: Russell probably blocked twelve shots in this game. Probably it
Speaker 5: was probably like twelve.
Speaker 4: I don't really important, Like, yeah, my buddy was at
Speaker 4: the guard. He said he probably had about ten or twelve.
Speaker 6: My buddy was sitting down low so he could actually
Speaker 6: see through the cloud of Cigarett smoke. He said he
Speaker 6: probably blocked fourteen, blocked fourteen.
Speaker 4: I think probably yeah, something.
Speaker 6: This one you're I know you're gonna get I'm gonna
Speaker 6: throw you a softball here, all time leader in offensive
Speaker 6: rebounds percentage.
Speaker 5: Oh, I mean obviously.
Speaker 3: And here's a hint.
Speaker 6: This person dunked on me, uh, probably a dozen times
Speaker 6: in a single game once in high school school.
Speaker 5: Wow, John Henson, damn got Zuri.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, how did you miss that? One?
Speaker 5: Man for three? And I've talked about the leader and
Speaker 5: offensive rebounding percentage like in every other pot, and it just.
Speaker 3: Missed that one. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Pressure of the moment, Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4: Hey, another great bruin as well.
Speaker 2: Also, Okay, here's the last question, Ty, you can go
Speaker 2: back and one year as an NBA player, you are
Speaker 2: experiencing every single thing they experienced in that single year.
Speaker 4: Who are you choosing? What player, what year? Whose body
Speaker 4: are you jumping into.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with Lebron in sixteen because I still
Speaker 5: think that comeback was just one of the end of
Speaker 5: the whole year, but that comeback in the finals was
Speaker 5: one of the most incredible. And if the Warriors is
Speaker 5: held on Curry and sixteen would be a good answer too,
Speaker 5: because they had their own insaying three to one comeback.
Speaker 5: The other option I weighed was Jordan in the end
Speaker 5: of the second three peat because just like the exhaustion,
Speaker 5: but then the satisfaction to do it again must have
Speaker 5: been absolutely insane.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think those are.
Speaker 3: A good answer. I had right answer.
Speaker 6: I would have picked those, but unfortunately I would have
Speaker 6: kept being like every time I was doing what they
Speaker 6: were doing, Like every time I'd don't, they'd be like,
Speaker 6: why does Lebron keep showing?
Speaker 2: I mean, that's the other dimension of this question when
Speaker 2: I ask him. I also always want to follow up.
Speaker 2: I'm like, now, I get that that was an amazing run,
Speaker 2: but are you most excited to be the person being.
Speaker 3: Like, am I just riding? Am I just along for
Speaker 3: the ride? Like? Am I am? I like a parasite
Speaker 3: to do it?
Speaker 5: Then the run is over and I'll just ride in
Speaker 5: this driving Lebron. We lose all the games.
Speaker 3: Well, it's like.
Speaker 2: You're in there, but your son like, whoa, I'm doing
Speaker 2: cool stuff?
Speaker 1: This so crazy?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got the talent, but then wild eye body afterwards.
Speaker 4: Suck Josh basking again.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they should have been made a sequel to Big
Speaker 6: just like him going back to life as an eight
Speaker 6: year old and being like I had sex. He's like
Speaker 6: woman was in a mature relationship.
Speaker 4: For months, Josh, you want to ride bikes? Hell no,
Speaker 4: I don't want.
Speaker 6: To ride cigarette Manhattan, all right. And the last thing
Speaker 6: we ask our guests to do, uh game of the week.
Speaker 6: Three games to choose from. We got Bucks at Lakers
Speaker 6: on League Pass and local, we got Grizzlies at Clippers
Speaker 6: on NBA TV. We got Nuggets at Rockets on League Pass.
Speaker 6: What would you choose to be our game of the week.
Speaker 6: This is the game that we watch with our viewers
Speaker 6: and give a give a little bit of recap with.
Speaker 5: Since I hate Giannis, I'm gonna go with the Nuggets
Speaker 5: at Rockets game. Nugget, No, I actually have. I think
Speaker 5: it's a better game. I think sounds like bron is
Speaker 5: not going to play in that Lakers game. If I
Speaker 5: thought he would, then I maybe picked that one.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but let's see that I hate in here. But
Speaker 5: let's see the two three kind of West match up there.
Speaker 5: It's a lot of intriguing again, big game for these
Speaker 5: Rockets to prove that they're not just beating up on
Speaker 5: the bums in the West. Right now, R.
Speaker 4: Exactly all right?
Speaker 6: You heard it from a Janis hater, right number one here,
