First one, best Ja Morant assist from 67 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 2: Tuesday night against the Rockets. Was it the behind the 68 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: back dish to Triple J on the move? Was it 69 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 2: that little drop off that he had to Triple J 70 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: who then hammered it home? Or was it the no 71 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: look lob to Brandon Clark? What you got? You got 72 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: to pick one of those Jam Moran highlights. 73 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 5: I'm going the first one, the first one. 74 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: That one was ranked the lowest on NBA dot COM's 75 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: Top ten. I think it was at ninth. Actually, yeah, 76 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 2: just because. 77 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 5: He comes off of steal and he's going down and 78 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 5: you're not really sure exactly how he's going to finish 79 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 5: off that play that he does a little loop de 80 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 5: loop around the back there and then there's a guy 81 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 5: coming down. But then he throws it to the other 82 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 5: guy coming back to trailer, which is jj. 83 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 2: Oh, you're going the second one. You're going drop off 84 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: because he had beauty hid in the back dime on 85 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: the move, but you're thinking the drop off to h JJJ. 86 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, where he just cuts across the free throw 87 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 5: line there and then jj J Jay did. Now I 88 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 5: can't say exactly but that that was just that was 89 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 5: just Sherman ship out its finest. 90 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 3: I thought the most impressive part of the night for 91 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 3: me was a rook and John Morant eyeing down James 92 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 3: Harden guarding him, and Harden sagging off him, and John 93 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: Morant saying, Okay, I'm gonna shoot this thing. In the 94 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 3: first quarter, he shot it, goes back on defense and 95 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 3: yells out to the Memphis crowd, tell that mother about me. 96 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 3: And then late in the fourth quarter, same thing happens. 97 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 3: It's a close game. Two minutes left, Harden SAgs off him. 98 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 3: It's a tight game. Maybe go to his strength, which 99 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 3: is driving and finding guys. Uh huh again in his face, 100 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: drops another three ball in James Harden's eye. That was 101 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 3: the most impressive. 102 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: Well are you going off board? Are you talking about 103 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: three pointers? That's fair. I knew that was gonna come 104 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: up because he was awesome. He was huge in the 105 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. He took over the game. He went four 106 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: to four in the quarter, eleven points, three boards to assists. 107 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 3: Just the man. He's got it as a rook and 108 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: it's great for the league because he makes one of 109 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 3: people tune in. Yep, he don't. You don't have to. Yes, 110 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 3: some of these highlights are great that we're talking about, 111 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 3: but you have to watch them. It's those ratings aren't 112 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 3: going to dwindle for Grizzlies games. I don't think, although 113 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 3: they're dwindling around the league. I think you had you 114 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: have to actually make people want to tune in. 115 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 6: Best time for me was the alley oop. I thought 116 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 6: the best highlight overall was the one Lee's talking about 117 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 6: the one that he meant to be talking about, the 118 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 6: fast break, the behind the back basically just to kill 119 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 6: a little time until JJJ was there to throw down 120 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 6: a monster dunk. But I thought that the dunk was 121 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 6: the best part of that one. If you're talking strictly 122 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 6: pass the behind the back in the half court to 123 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 6: the no look oop, yeah, in a half court set 124 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 6: for a monster dunk. 125 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 3: That was wicked. 126 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 6: Yeah. 127 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 2: I think I leaned towards that one as well. All 128 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: three are awesome. Yeah, And again the one that was 129 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: at ninth, just to clarify, was the first one was 130 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: the simple if you want to call it that behind 131 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: the back pass for the and one layup for Jack Junior. 132 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 2: But all three of those were awesome. Yeah. The swag 133 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: is it's at one hundred earlyly. I know you like 134 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 2: to talk about swag here on the podcast. Swag. 135 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 5: That's the thing about it. Like every sort of play 136 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 5: that he made last night. He went ten for eleven 137 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 5: from the field, three for four from downtown, perfect at 138 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 5: the line, eight assists, two turnovers. I mean, he's a 139 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 5: rookie and he almost pitched a perfect game. If we're 140 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 5: talking a little baseball pretty close. You're not wrong to 141 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 5: get the W as well, but it felt like even 142 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 5: his little like going inside to the paint, he was 143 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 5: drawing contact and still finishing up Hi. He had the 144 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 5: hangtime in the air. You've mentioned the three pointers there. 145 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 5: He had a couple of mid ranges as well. Like 146 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 5: his bag is so full everything. 147 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: It's true, and I think that's I think Neate Duncan 148 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: was the first to point this out on Twitter last night. 149 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: They saw Moran was playing the entire fourth quarter against 150 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: those Rockets, you know, again, to put it away. That's 151 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: an exception to his normal substitution pattern. He doesn't get 152 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: a ton of minutes even though he's young twenty. You know, 153 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 2: they've been pretty hesitant to roll him out there for 154 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: you know, thirty five forty minutes a game. But last 155 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: night been him an exception there to put away the Rockets. 156 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 2: Maybe it was because tass it was one of the 157 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 2: very rare nationally televised Grizzlies games being on NBA TV. 158 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: Maybe more people catching that game than normal just on 159 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 2: League Pass. But it's I love that this is happening, 160 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: not that John Moran is just killing it and putting 161 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: up these numbers and doing it in style. He's got 162 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 2: guys alongside with them, these other young guys that are 163 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: making this push toward the playoffs a real possibility. Jackson's 164 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: averaging twenty points per game during this awesome stretch that 165 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 2: the Grizzlies are on, thirteen and six stretch. You know, 166 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: Canadian Dylan books Brooks, excuse me another twenty four last night, 167 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: he's averaging twenty plus during the six game winning streak 168 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 2: that they're on. And then Brandon Clark, another Canadian, another 169 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: who appears to be maybe the steal of the draft, 170 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: going where he did. I believe twenty first. He's six 171 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 2: to seven again last night. I love that it's not 172 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: just John Moran, it's these other guys as well. And 173 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 2: it's tough to look at the grizz and go, try 174 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: and find me a better young core than what they 175 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: have there right now. I'm not sure who would even 176 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 2: be in play with the three or four talented young 177 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: guys like that. 178 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 6: And it's an interesting question too for a Grizzlies fan. 179 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 6: They were GrITT and grind for a long time. That 180 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 6: really put Memphis basketball on the map, gave them an identity, 181 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 6: and this team is nothing like that, and they're so 182 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 6: much cooler. So I don't know, if you're a Grizzlies fan, 183 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 6: I'm sure you love the GrITT and Grind era. But 184 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 6: now you see a guy in John Morant who is 185 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 6: a superstar, a highlight machine. Is that more exciting for 186 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 6: a Grizzlies fan. It's more exciting I think for somebody 187 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 6: just watching the Grizzlies as a fan of the league, 188 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 6: you know, just a fan of players, a fan of 189 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 6: all the teams. I love to wear an NBA jacket 190 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 6: that just says NBA on it. So for me, the 191 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 6: Grizzlies are a lot more fun to watch now than 192 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 6: they ever were during the Randolph Gasol, Mike Conley, Tony 193 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 6: Allen era. But that's also the team that I'm sure 194 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 6: Grizzlies fans grew up with. So if you're a Grizzlies fan, 195 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 6: tweet at us. Let us know. 196 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 2: We had Tony Allen on the broadcast there for a 197 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: little bit, watching, you know, from the Gritton grind days, 198 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 2: the Grindfather watching and getting very excited matter for a time, 199 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 2: And I mean, this is what's cool. It's like us 200 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 2: as fans are going nuts with these top ten highlights 201 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 2: that John Moran keeps dropping every game here, so are 202 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: like former players and current players for that matter, like 203 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas I saw on NBA TV was going crazy 204 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 2: over these Candice Parker and then you had again Tony 205 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 2: Allen with Greg Anthony on the call last night, like 206 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: they're just going just as nuts as we are with 207 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 2: some of the things that he is pulling off. 208 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 5: Well, the question for the Grizzlies now that they have 209 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 5: the playoffs now within reach, I mean there's still half 210 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 5: a season to go, so there's tons of time to go. 211 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 5: But they've won six in a row here and Moran 212 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 5: has shown that he's a star already. But they have 213 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 5: rested him at times this season, you know, because he 214 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 5: came in with an injury of course from last season, 215 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 5: and last night you mentioned already he played heavy minutes, 216 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 5: heavier minutes than he tends to play. So do they 217 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 5: now sort of say, you know what, maybe we just 218 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 5: ride it out here with jar Morant, or do they 219 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 5: sort of try to be a little bit more disciplined 220 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 5: with their plan coming into the season where they were like, 221 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 5: we want to rest this guy so that he doesn't 222 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 5: risk the doing any further damage. I mean because if 223 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 5: you're the Grizzlies, I think you want to ride this 224 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 5: wave right now. You want to if they can make 225 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 5: the playoffs, so they can you know, keep this up 226 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 5: in the second half of the season. You don't want 227 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 5: to be resting Moran at all. In my opinion, I 228 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 5: think you want to see exactly how far you can 229 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 5: go and see if it's possible to maybe you know, 230 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 5: be ahead of schedule. 231 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: Right but you're soself said, you don't want to run 232 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 2: them into the ground here. Yeah, being as young as you, that's. 233 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 5: But that's going to be so hard for Taylor Jenkins 234 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 5: when in a game again, like last night, it's like 235 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 5: against the Rockets National TV. He's killing it. You want 236 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 5: to you want to see him on the bench, No way, 237 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 5: I want. 238 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,959 Speaker 2: To see you barely, mister shot. You've got to be 239 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: playing them in the fourth quarter for sure. Finally finished 240 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: with thirty six minutes. It's not insane, No. 241 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 5: It's not. 242 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: But it's usually been around that three. 243 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's going against probably what they their plan was 244 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 5: coming into the season. 245 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 2: Some awesome fun times right now watching the Grizzlies and 246 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 2: it's you know, everybody outside of San Antonio. I feel 247 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: like is going to be cheering for the Grizzlies and 248 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 2: drum Moran to get into the playoffs over the Spurs, 249 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: who you've seen time and time again. Of course Spurs 250 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 2: fans and they want to keep that streak alive. But 251 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: tons of season still to go. All right, next one here, guys, 252 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: there can only be one Jazz All Star, Rudy Gobert 253 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: or Donovan Mitchell or because he's an Aussie, here we're 254 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 2: gonna throw in Joe Ingles, who had a career high 255 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: twenty seven points. There can only be one Jazz All Star. 256 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: You have to pick one. Who do you go? 257 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 3: Well, Rudy Gobert is their most important player. He is 258 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 3: their center of their defense and he draws a lot 259 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 3: of gravity on offense because everybody has to go to him. 260 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 3: Even though you can't just throw the ball to him 261 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 3: to get points. That's not his game. He's a lob man. 262 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 3: But there's a lot of gravity where he draws a 263 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 3: lot of guys. And that's why Ingles is effective now 264 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 3: that he's entered the starting lineup. But before that, Ingles 265 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 3: was really struggling, you know, pre ten games ago. But 266 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 3: Ingles is really important to what they do he is great, 267 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 3: he's they're back, But I think Donovan Mitchell will get 268 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:57,719 Speaker 3: the nod. Really yeah, but you know it should be 269 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert. But I wonder where the coaches go if 270 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 3: they go with their most important the guy that they 271 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 3: probably planned for on the offensive end in doabvand Mitchell, 272 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 3: you know, their defensive game plan for him, or they 273 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 3: got Rudy Gobert, who is more important? 274 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 5: I think Rudy Gobert. I would like to see Rudy 275 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 5: Gobert in because I believe he's kind of earned this 276 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 5: spot over the last couple of years. He's been close. 277 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 5: He's been Defensive Player of the Year two years in 278 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 5: a row, and he could win it again this season, 279 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 5: so I think he's almost paid his dues in that respect. 280 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 5: I think Donovan Mitchell is going to be an All 281 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 5: Star at some point in his career. So if you're 282 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 5: going to pick one of them, I would pick Rudy 283 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 5: out of those two. But I will just say for 284 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 5: Joe Ingles, Tasha mentioned pre ten games or so, they well, 285 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 5: at least we returned to the starting lineup nineteen games ago. 286 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 5: He's averaging fifteen points a game shooting fifty two percent 287 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 5: from three and from the field, and the Jazz are 288 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 5: sixteen and three, and he just looks again like he's 289 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 5: actually re energized. A big big thing that I said 290 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 5: about why I thought he was struggling to start this 291 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 5: season was because of the long summer that he had. 292 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 5: Something happened and he now just looks a little bit 293 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 5: more of afresh. So maybe it was just the fact 294 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 5: that it was like, you know, get into the starting lineup. 295 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 5: Then maybe he was struggling to find his rhythm coming 296 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 5: off the bench. And he's looking a lot better. So 297 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 5: obviously Joe is not going to make the oside game, 298 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 5: but I'd like to see him get in the three 299 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 5: point shootout for a change, get a lefty in there, 300 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 5: get an Aussie in there, Homer, maybe he could finally 301 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 5: pull it off. I would love to see it. 302 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Ingles with the career, had twenty seven, like I said, 303 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 2: against the Nets, just when they're tenth straight game, Rudy 304 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 2: at twenty two and eighteen, and then Mitchell took over 305 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: in the fourth. He sort of put the game away. 306 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 2: So where do you lean if you can only pick one? 307 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 6: I kind of actually lean towards Mitchell. I think he's 308 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 6: been pretty consistent for the Jazz as they have been 309 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 6: turning things around as of late. It's crazy tommedately though, 310 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 6: that you're making an excuse for Joe Ingles having a 311 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 6: long summer as if Donovan, Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, boy On 312 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 6: Bogdanovic all of these guys played in FIBA tournament over 313 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 6: the summer. But uh, I think Gobert is more likely 314 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 6: to make it. He's been campaigning for it for years. 315 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 6: He does have the respect as the center of the 316 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 6: Jazz of a defensive team, as the guy that makes 317 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 6: things go, especially on the defensive end, and like Tassa 318 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 6: is saying, is a huge gravity bomb there in the 319 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 6: middle for the offensive end as well. So I think 320 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 6: it'll probably get be Gobert, especially considering his pedigree as 321 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 6: a defensive Player of the Year. But I think the 322 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 6: reason that the Jazz have been able to string together 323 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 6: so many wins is that Mitchell has been good night 324 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 6: in and night out. 325 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually am leaning towards Rudy Gobert being the 326 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: more likely selection here, and it really comes down to 327 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 2: the competition at their spots, right. You know, we talked 328 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 2: about it briefly with the guards. You know, Mitchell is 329 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 2: gonna have to battle to get in, you know, Lillard 330 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 2: and Chris Paul and Westbrook and Booker and maybe DeRozan 331 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 2: in Holiday and Johamrant maybe even in lou Williams. We're 332 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: at the forward position in the west. You know where 333 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: Rudy would get in. He's battling Jokic, Paul George, possibly 334 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 2: brandon Ingram possibly you know Aldridge sort of always in 335 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 2: the mix Towns, but Towns has only played twenty three games. 336 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 2: He's questionable to come back tonight, So like, maybe that's 337 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 2: not enough. So I just think looking at that, there 338 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 2: just might be more likely of a spot for Gobert, 339 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: and a deserving spot at that. I might make that 340 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 2: very clear. This is funny timing that we're asking this. 341 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 2: I saw Michael Pina. He has an article up on 342 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: Espianation here this morning, asking this question, who is really 343 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: more essential to Utah's identity and who raises their sealing 344 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 2: more Who's just a better player between Gobert and Mitchell. 345 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 2: I highly recommend you go check it out. He had 346 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: a great little trivia question within this The tweet that 347 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: led me to the article. There have only been five 348 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: All Stars since stalked in him alone for the Jazz. 349 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 5: Can you name them? 350 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, Williams and Boozer, that's right, and one more 351 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 2: nice well done guys obviously not in that order, but Kierle, Anko, Okur, Boozer, 352 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 2: Williams and then Hayward. Only five. But I also saw 353 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 2: Ben Dousa writing about Ingles and Gobert that pick and 354 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 2: roll is one of the best in the league and 355 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: they killed the Nets with it. They ran thirteen pick 356 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: and rolls apparently last night, ending in a shot or 357 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: a fowl or turnover or a pass to another shooter, 358 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: and they scored nineteen points on those possessions, one point 359 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: four to six points per pick and roll there, Ingles 360 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 2: and Gobert. That's very, very high, and they're one of 361 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 2: again the best in the league, not just this game 362 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 2: against the Nets. 363 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 5: Timing is everything though as well, with these reserve picks 364 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 5: and the Jazz second in the West. If they keep rolling, 365 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 5: there's a chance both of them getting There's a real chance. 366 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 5: I think the coaches will reward a team that if 367 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 5: they're you know, if they are clear sic and they're 368 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 5: right now you know, technically I guess second with the 369 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 5: with the Nuggets, that could sort of shuffle around a bit, 370 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 5: and even the Clippers if what happens over the next 371 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 5: few games. But there's a chance the Jazz have two 372 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 5: reps this year. For sure. 373 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: The Jazz get two reps and they get ingles. 374 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 5: In the three point contests, do it? 375 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 2: Oh my god? Yeah, tweets would be exploding that. Everybody 376 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: would be talking about the Jazz, all right. Next one, guys, 377 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 2: worse loss the Knicks or the Warriors, or the Calves 378 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 2: or Brad Rudder on Jeopardy goat tournament finishing third and 379 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 2: distant distant third to kenon James, what you got? 380 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 6: You know, I'm just gonna go with Brad because I 381 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 6: saw a clip of Jeans just straight up burning him. 382 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 6: When they reset the scores last and since he was 383 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 6: already at zero, James drops Alex Brad's score. 384 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: Still, this crowd goes crazy. It was great. 385 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 6: Ken Jennings couldn't believe it. So that's pretty savage. 386 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. The Knicks lost by twenty six in Milwaukee, the 387 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: Warriors lost by twenty someone at home to the MAVs, 388 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: and the Calves lost by twenty five in La to 389 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 2: the Clippers. That was back to back for the Caves 390 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 2: in LA and they got hammered both times. But yeah, 391 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: Brad had it rough there too. Brad had it just 392 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: as rough on the Jeopardy Go tournament. 393 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 5: According to Worldwide, Well, the Bucks and the Knicks have 394 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 5: played three times this season, and the Knicks haven't led 395 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 5: at all at any point. 396 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, that's impressive. That's impressive. 397 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 5: That's impractically tad to do. Yeah. 398 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 2: If you look at. 399 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 5: Even the first dunk of the game last night, Yannis 400 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 5: basically they get a turnover and Julius Randall's back and 401 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 5: it's almost like watching a rec league how Yanni's just 402 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 5: so easily goes past him, and Randall just kind of 403 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 5: gives up and he dunks, and and that that's basically 404 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 5: the game right there. That's it all over. So I'll 405 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 5: say the Knicks. 406 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: Okay, go in the next The Nicks been playing well 407 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: on the road. What about the Warriors man now home? Yeah, 408 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 2: especially when you pair that with the Hawks beating the Suns, 409 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 2: and I think now the Warriors may be the worst 410 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 2: team in the league. Again, I don't know where you 411 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 2: go tasks. 412 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: Anytime a Jeopardy clip is making the rounds. It's gotta 413 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 3: be the Jeopardy clip that. Yeah. 414 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 2: The counter is, though Brad still won two hundred and 415 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars from going in the tournament being considered 416 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: one of the goats even though he lost. 417 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 6: Hey man, that's all bad. Third best all time is 418 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 6: still a nice place. 419 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. 420 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 3: Then counter to that is the Knicks make billions of 421 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 3: dollars every day. 422 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: So somehow that is true. You're right despite the horrible play, 423 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 2: and they have been better. You know what really got Brad? 424 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: I mean I was watching a lot last week. I 425 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 2: watched last night as well. Over that first week, he 426 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: kept finding the daily doubles Brad did. He found fifty 427 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 2: percent of them over the the three matchups, the six 428 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 2: games that they played. In those first three matchups. Last 429 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 2: week he found them fifty percent of the time, and 430 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: he only answered them correctly a third of the time. 431 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 2: And it's like, you're going against the goats, like you 432 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: gotta be nailing the daily doubles. You gotta be the 433 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 2: points up there. But he was getting crushed. Do I 434 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: mean the questions were stupid? Like nor and I were 435 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 2: watching last night, We're like like what there was a 436 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 2: category of famous Canadians though. Did he get any I 437 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 2: did get a couple. I got a couple. There were 438 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 2: there was some that I did not get. But yeah, otherwise, 439 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 2: I mean it's just. 440 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 4: Like what you sit there and you're like, why am 441 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: I watching this? But it's amazing. 442 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 2: You can't look away. 443 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 4: Yeah they're so good. Then they just know everything. Yeah, 444 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 4: so good. 445 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: Like the numbers, the ratings. This was doing this tournament. 446 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: You see him, Yeah, I haven't in the tens of millions, 447 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 2: like ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen million, like what like World 448 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: Series games and NBA finals games are doing pretty amazing. 449 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. So congrats to Ken Jennings, 450 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: the greatest Jeopardy player of all time. 451 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 6: I know that the others Brad and James have maybe 452 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 6: outpaced Ken since it started, but I would have gone 453 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 6: with Kenya from from the get go. That guy's the 454 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 6: original goat. 455 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 5: Good to see him keep the. 456 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 2: Crowd well that was what he had never won a tournament. 457 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 2: That was the crazy part with Ken Jennings. He had 458 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 2: never beaten Brat I think in head to head play, 459 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,920 Speaker 2: but you know, he got it done now, so he's 460 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 2: the best final one guys. More surprising news from these headlines. 461 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 2: Derrick Rose find twenty five thousand dollars for tossing a 462 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 2: pen into the stands or Joel Embiid and under armour 463 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 2: to launch signature shoe later this year. More surprising news. 464 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 5: What you got twenty five grand for a pen throw? 465 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: Wow? Have you seen the club? 466 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: No? 467 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 3: I haven't. 468 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 5: I was trying to find out there. 469 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 2: It's like right at the end of overtime, it game's 470 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 2: over because they blew it and he goes over. He 471 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 2: sort of just he doesn't sit in the seat. He 472 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 2: sits like on the scorer's table, and someone has just 473 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: just sat down like their their pad in the pen, 474 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 2: and he just grabs the pen and he chucks it 475 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: across the court. Like he doesn't ruck it behind him, 476 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 2: chucks it across. 477 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 5: So it's not necessarily the pen. It's more just the 478 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 5: act of throwing it. 479 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 2: I think you throw anything in there, you're basically fine, 480 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 2: Like get in a kurry, go find right the twenty 481 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 2: five thousand Back in Game six of the two thousand 482 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 2: six teen finals, when he threw his mouth guard, God, yeah, 483 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 2: you know, hit somebody in the first row and it 484 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 2: was like, yeah, he still got fine and obviously he 485 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 2: get suspended or anything. 486 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going with that. 487 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: Man, it's weird to see pen you got fine twenty 488 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: five thousand for tossing a pen. 489 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm I think that is weirder just because I mean, 490 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 6: a pen doesn't seem dangerous to me. I know you 491 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 6: could get catch a pen in the eye. You definitely could, 492 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 6: There's no doubt about it. Especially if it's like like 493 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 6: a ballpoint pen you leave it unclicked, there's danger, yeah, 494 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 6: but it's still a pen. I think that the fine 495 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 6: should be equivalent. 496 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 2: To the size of the object. 497 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 6: If you throw a ball, that's the baseline object, twenty 498 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 6: five grand A pen is what one tenth of a ball? 499 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 6: Twenty five dollars five? 500 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 2: Would you rather someone throw, you know, a gross saliva 501 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 2: filled mouth guard at you, or a pen or even 502 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 2: gum what you got? 503 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 6: H Okay, okay, I'm ranking the three will I'm going 504 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 6: mouthguard first? 505 00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 2: You want to be Yeah, I want to hit with 506 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 2: the mouth I want to be like that one guy 507 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 2: that one time in his canter to pick it up. 508 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 2: I got it. 509 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 6: That, followed by penn, followed by gum gum last. I 510 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 6: just think gum your things could get ruined, all right. 511 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 2: Stick somewhere right, Okay, crazier headlines anyone tasks surprised by 512 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: the Joelanbiid a big guy getting a signature shoe. 513 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 3: Or yeah, Derek Rose really fired that pen, so he 514 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 3: should get fined something, maybe maybe less. But Joel Embiid, Yeah, 515 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 3: big man and signature shoes doesn't happen very often in 516 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 3: this day and age. And I guess he's the sixteenth 517 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 3: guy apparently heard on the daily ding that he is 518 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 3: has got a signature shoe deal in the NBA, his 519 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 3: own shoes, So that is a little surprising. Angel Embiid 520 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 3: doesn't seem like an under armoured type of guy either. 521 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 2: I was going to ask you, did anybody remember or 522 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 2: know that he was with on Karmer. 523 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 5: I didn't. 524 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 2: I know this like last year or last year signed, 525 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 2: but I had forgotten that he was with them, Like 526 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 2: we sure hadn't really seen a push for I don't 527 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: know under armour Embiid merchandise or anything like. 528 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,880 Speaker 6: That's why it is a surprise a big man's getting 529 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 6: a thing, even though Mbid you would assume is a 530 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 6: marketable big man, charismatic, big time personality, that kind of 531 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 6: thing and he was Adidas early in his career, but 532 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 6: when he was barely able to stay on the court. 533 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 6: I think that's a function of playing for Kansas during 534 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 6: his college days. And I think they're an Adidas school. 535 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 6: So yeah, I don't know. 536 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 2: Let's see what they look like. Yeah, I guess that's it. Yeah, 537 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 2: we haven't really seen a photo yet. Nick Depaula with ESPN, 538 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: I think maybe reporting that he saw like something on 539 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 2: a phone or something like that, like a prototype type thing. 540 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 2: Embiid says, it's not a big man shoe. It's a 541 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 2: shoe for any basketball player. Oh interesting, smart, Yeah, yeah, 542 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 2: the big man shoe does it doesn't have a great realtation? Yeah, 543 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 2: not really, I mean shack Okay, I'm sure he sold 544 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: a lot of shoes. I have no idea about nothing 545 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 2: to back this up, but like Dwight right, did he 546 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: did he even have his own Yeah? 547 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 5: Yeahah yeah he did in charm Or. I think dwatsto. 548 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, that's true. 549 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 2: They have killed may have dominated it. And then like 550 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 2: who else is there for big guys over the last 551 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 2: couple of years? Anyone else? 552 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 6: Last couple of Yeah, yeah, I mean team had like Etonics, right, Yeah, sure, 553 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 6: Kevin Garnett had shoes, but he's he's like yea honest 554 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 6: where like he's a big guy physically, he's. 555 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 2: Large, but not really not a now under armour EMBIID 556 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 2: one they're going with. Some people thought it would be 557 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 2: maybe called the Process, right, but Beida has talked about 558 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 2: well a couple of reasons. One, he looks at the process, 559 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: which he has trademarked as more of like a team thing, 560 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 2: like a building on that from where they were to 561 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 2: maybe where they're trying to get to winning a championship. 562 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 2: And like I think too he may have lost a 563 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: brother or he lost a family member and be did, 564 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 2: And so he likes the idea of it being called 565 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 2: the EMBIID till you know, sort of as a tribute 566 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: to that legacy. So he will be the only current 567 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 2: center in the league with a signature shoe under Rummer 568 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 2: had what Brandon Jennings sort of had one, and then 569 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 2: Steph Curry had a pretty successful one. 570 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 5: You wear the Curries, don't you, Yes, they grew, They're 571 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 5: very comfortable for sure. Yeah, I recommend them gott to 572 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 5: get a pair of Anderama's Prime. 573 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 2: How many are they up to on those? 574 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 3: You know? 575 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 2: Like four or five seven? Yeah, what really? 576 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 5: Maybe? 577 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think, but he hasn't been able to wear them, 578 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 6: you kind of like some special edition ones. 579 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 5: So yeah, right, try man. 580 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: Okay, I will. I mean, you keep telling me you're 581 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: going to bring me things to try. Yeah, ka uh uh. 582 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 2: So we will see. 583 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. 584 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 2: I don't think these launch until like late twenty twenty, 585 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,879 Speaker 2: so later this year probably. I would assume, like what 586 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 2: the start of the next season really in the fall? Yeah, 587 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a while. It's not They're not coming 588 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 2: soon or anything like that. I think it's a fall 589 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 2: in Nicktopoula's report there on ESPN. So we'll see. But 590 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 2: what let's hear from you guys? What you got with 591 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 2: all of those questions that we threw out there. Let 592 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 2: us know on Twitter at no Dunk Think and hashtag 593 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: no Dunks. All right, let's to tweet a. 594 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 3: Nate Tweed over night Wow. 595 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 5: Twitter, I have tweeted the night duties and it's actually 596 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 5: tweet of the day or date. Really, so I've got 597 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 5: a tweet. But then I've got a quick rapid fire 598 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 5: question for everyone, So get ready, okay. Comes from Nick's 599 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 5: History at Nick's History thirty years ago, today, January fifteen, 600 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 5: the Trent Tucker rule was born. Taker hit a game 601 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 5: winning shot against the balls with zero point one seconds left, 602 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 5: with the clock knots starting until the ball was in 603 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 5: mid air. Phil Jackson would protest the game, leading to 604 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 5: the rule change. While the rule was changed, it's still 605 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 5: referred to as the Trent Tucker rule, which means you 606 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 5: can no longer since that day with less than zero 607 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 5: point three tenths of a second to go catch the 608 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 5: ball and shoot it. To get a shot off, you 609 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,239 Speaker 5: have to only be able to tap it in or 610 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 5: you know, basically basically that's what it is, is the tap 611 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 5: in rule. So that got me thinking about a few 612 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 5: other rules there are in the NBA. There's the Larry 613 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 5: Bird rule, the Gilbert Arenas rule, the Jerry Stackhouse sort 614 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 5: of Gary Payton rule that you can't re sign with 615 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 5: a team that's waived you for at least twelve months 616 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 5: now because what was happening players were being released and 617 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 5: then taking a month off and then going back to 618 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 5: the team, and the Derek Rose rule as well as 619 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 5: with the contract there. So there's a few others out there. 620 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 5: So I thought, if you guys had a rule on 621 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 5: live or bass. Well, whatever you want. What would it 622 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 5: be skitzy? 623 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 2: Oh? Why me? 624 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: I don't know. 625 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 2: I have an answer, he sprung ten minutes ago. 626 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 6: Think about this. 627 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. 628 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 2: So if someone has an answer, I'll think about it. 629 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 2: Nothing comes to mind for me right now. Say what 630 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: do you got one? 631 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 6: Here you go the Trey Kirby rule. You're playing pick 632 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 6: up basketball, you're leading the fast break. You gotta go 633 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 6: for a highlight. Don't make a simple pass, don't make 634 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 6: a simple move. Try and do something that's gonna look good, 635 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 6: because it's either going to look good or more likely 636 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 6: it's not. But either way, if it's on video, you're 637 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 6: getting some contexts. 638 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 5: It's not unlike John Morant right now, that's right. He 639 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 5: doesn't go for just the standard layup. Puts on a 640 00:27:58,840 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 5: bit of a show. 641 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 2: It's a bit of a higher successful success rate. 642 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 5: I'm sure has got a few there. 643 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 2: It does. 644 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 6: It does thanks overtime and John highlight percentages. 645 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 4: The Jason Doyle rule that I'm living by right now 646 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 4: is I never idle my car for more than thirty seconds. 647 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 4: Drives me insane. Walking through a parking lot in Atlanta 648 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 4: fifteen degrees celsius twenty degrees celsius, A beautiful day.

First of all, like gas is expensive, 651 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 4: and what about the environment, Like I feel like we're 652 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 4: doomed when this happens, which is literally every day, just 653 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 4: people just hanging out in their cars. 654 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's usually like thirty degrees celsius ninety five 655 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 3: degrees fahrenheit in Atlanta. Even still, what about that you 656 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 3: need air conditioning, You need air conditioning, Get out of. 657 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,239 Speaker 4: Your car, go into the store.
