Speaker 3: You're making it look good?

10
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: How are you doing? You are panicking a little bit?

11
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 3: You are?

12
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm stressed out, man, stressed out. I don't know.

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: JD's changed a lot of things since the last time

14
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: I was here. Yeah. Hey, but we about to were

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: about to do it. Yeah, that's the spirit.

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: Exactly the spirit. Apologies for everyone on YouTube. We are

17
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: running a little late here. We do have one monitor

18
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: that just will not cooperate with Esch and his setup,

19
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: But who cares. It looks like what do you think

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: of the new digs? You hate him right now because

21
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: none of it works, But what do you think of

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: the look of it?

23
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: Everything looks so good in here. I like her a lot.

24
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 2: I've been seeing it piece by piece, just watching the show.

25
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: I have been in here for thumb Moore a little bit, yes, yes,

26
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 2: but I've been on that side of things. So this

27
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,559
Speaker 2: is the first time me being back behind this desk

28
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: in months.

29
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is so much easier over here than what

30
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: JD and now you are doing.

31
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

32
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: I hope he's having a good vacation playing picklepool right now.

33
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,839
Speaker 1: Oh yes, yes, yes, I'm sure he is. Okay, Hello

38
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: monitor behind me isn't fake snowing. On today's show, we

39
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: got some NBA news when it comes to new rules,

40
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: tasks that you may have predicted actually way back when,

41
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: and some Hall of Fame news. But first, let's start

42
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: with some NBA weekend winners. We decided we're not doing

43
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: losers today or positive Pietz here in the holiday spirit,

44
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: and it feels like there's so many winners to talk about,

45
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: so why don't you get it started here?

46
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, hopefully we won't just happened to mention some losers

47
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 3: because it might happen. It might happen. Let's start with

48
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 3: the winners. Yes, the Minnesota Timberwolves are the same team.

49
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 3: Every season we question is this team good? And then

50
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, when they need to, whoa, they

51
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: turn it up. Usually it happens late in the season,

52
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 3: but they're doing it a little bit earlier. They're climbing

53
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: those Western Conference standings. It's getting a little crowded. So

54
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 3: when they need to do it, they do it. They

55
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: had to do it against okay See on Friday.

56
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,119
Speaker 1: Oh good game?

57
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 3: What game? Yeah, Anthony Edwards helps the closer of all closers.

58
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 3: But as I said, Minnesota kind of starts slow sometimes,

59
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 3: and they did in this game, so much so that

60
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 3: their head coach, Chris Finch got so mad he kind

61
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 3: of wanted to, I think light a spark under his team,

62
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 3: and he got tossed because of it. It was a Julius

63
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 3: Randall call as well. But Anthony Edwards kept this team going.

64
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 3: They were so good at getting him out against okay

65
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: SE's great defense onto the side and those side picking

66
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: rolls to get him a little bit of space. They

67
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 3: had other things going for them. They had no problem

68
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 3: hitting super deep threes up top because we know Okac

69
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 3: will trap you. And I thought Dante DiVincenzo banging home

70
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 3: for threes really helped Bones Highland, Bones Highland, of all

71
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 3: people hitting four threes really helped. But I thought Minnesota

72
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 3: also just did what they had to do to beat Oka.

73
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 1: See.

74
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 3: If they're gonna beat Okay, see, you gotta bully their

75
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: big guys. They grabbed eighteen offensive boards, and they also

76
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,839
Speaker 3: didn't turn it over. I think by going to those

77
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: side flanks a lot of the time, they only turned

78
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 3: it over thirteen times. Minnesota ended up winning this game

79
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 3: in a close one. They could have won up by more.

80
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 3: They missed fourteen free throws in this game. They only

81
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 3: shot thirty three of forty seven. But as I said,

82
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 3: those guys contributing in Dante Bones Highland to get them

83
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: to that point. On the other side of the thunder,

84
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 3: we're struggling. Another quiet night from Cheded Holmgren Jalen Williams

85
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: bad night seventeen points on sixteen shots, same numbers as

86
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 3: he had versus the Spurs, and they just weren't shooting

87
00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 3: a three all that well, but it was a close

88
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: game because they're that good right until the end when

89
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards did the Anthony Edwards thing that step back

90
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: on the left side against Cason Wallace who played incredible

91
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: defense right up in his face. Yeah yeah, and then

92
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 3: go to the other end, Shaye gets blocked by Anthony Edwards.

93
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: It was a help block. Anthony Edwards grabs the board

94
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 3: and then a couple free throws at the other end

95
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 3: and then one more time can Shae do it? Anthony

96
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 3: Edwards literally guards him one on one and steals it

97
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 3: from him. So he closed it out celebrates with his

98
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: buddy Bones Highland. There. So a great weekend start, and

99
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 3: we'll get into their second game. But what did you

100
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 3: make of that incredible game?

101
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: Like you said, you have to play near perfect basketball,

102
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: it feels like to beat Okay, see only their third loss.

103
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,679
Speaker 1: They're human, they're twenty five and three. Will we start

104
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 1: wondering if they can even hit seventy wins at some

105
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: point here? But yeah, it was awesome. I love that

106
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 1: Minnesota is like, hey, I think I said this a

107
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: week or so ago, Like they're doing the thing like, hey,

108
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: we'll catch up later. Don't forget about us you will

109
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: leade teams in the Western Conference, and like after this weekend,

110
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: obviously some big, big wins and big performances, it's nice

111
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: to sort of probably consider them with your Thunder, with

112
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: your Nuggets, with your Rockets, and maybe the Minnesota Timberwolves

113
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 1: in the Lakers, I guess. So it's exciting, just like

114
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: it's great to have another juggernaut team that has been

115
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: to two Western Conference finals in a row. And it's

116
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: like we do forget about them at times because they

117
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: start slowly. But yeah, I love the antakeover.

118
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: The antikeover was phenomenal, and yeah, they're they're doing it

119
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 3: a little bit earlier this season. It feels like they

120
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 3: moved up the fifth in the Western Conference standings and

121
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 3: they're not far from obviously four to third from seconds,

122
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 3: so it feels like they're coming on. And yeah, Anthony

123
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: Edwards just needs to get going. He is the guy

124
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 3: that gets them going. But they do start slowly in

125
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 3: games like they did on Sunday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Yea, again,

126
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 3: they're down double digits at half, but they just turned

127
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 3: it on in the third quarter. That's why they're one

128
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,559
Speaker 3: of the best second half teams in the NBA second

129
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 3: half of each game. They are one of the better teams.

130
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 3: They went on a round twenty three to two in

131
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: the set second half after losing Jane McDaniels in the

132
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 3: first half, after having Anthony Edwards have a terrible shooting

133
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 3: night overall seven of twenty four. They went on that run.

134
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: Milwaukee didn't score for six minutes because they just played

135
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 3: bully ball again. Rudy Gobert six offensive boorns after having

136
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 3: five versus Oka. See Dante de Vincenzo again, four threes. TJ.

137
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 3: Shannon a guy who's you don't really consider, but they

138
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 3: need some guard help. That's why Bones Island is really important.

139
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: That's why TJ. Shannon hitting three threes in the fourth quarter. He's,

140
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 3: you know, an older young guy in the NBA is

141
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 3: twenty five years old. And then Bones Island running over

142
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 3: Bill Kennedy. I don't know if you saw that in

143
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 3: the corner, running over the referee. Bill Kennedy didn't help

144
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 3: him up or anything, just went straight to the bench.

145
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 3: I have what does he like, Bill Kennedy? I want

146
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 3: to know. We'll get to actually two players that Trey

147
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: questioned whether or not they like each other. A little

148
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 3: later in this show, some big name players. That's just

149
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 3: a segue either way, and close it again, even though

150
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 3: again shooting night, he goes to old school ball, that

151
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 3: banker from the mid range. The guy will play mid range,

152
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: the guy will bank it. So we're watching at theaters.

153
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 3: Can he grow? Can he grow into literally a guy

154
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 3: that takes the team to the finals. I know we're

155
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 3: all taking oka se in general, but.

156
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: I have to be four out of seven times for sure.

157
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. But as I said about Denver, even when okay

158
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: see was whatever, they were twenty two to one, I

159
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 3: still consider Denver are a legitimate threat. And here comes

160
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: Minnesota to join that crew. They're really really close to

161
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 3: the Denver and the Houston to some that. Now Houston

162
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: had lost an ugly game. I don't know if we'll

163
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: call them a loser, but they lose to the Sacramento Kings.

164
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: Either way, the West is tough.

165
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I liked what about the Wolves here? The second

166
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: game is like, yeah, it's not pretty and they just

167
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: eked it out with the one O three, one hundred victory.

168
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: But it's like, you can have these huge games against

169
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: the Thunder, you bring it, you obviously get the victory

170
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: and then you can just have a massive letdown. We

171
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: see that time and time again. Well you know a

172
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: lot of times we do this Monday show. There's a

173
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: lot of teams that like split their games over the weekend,

174
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: one big win and then one real disappointing loss. But

175
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: that wasn't the case. They got the w. Nineteen and

176
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: ten is their record, and yeah, I love those prints

177
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: purple jerseys that they're rocking too. Yeah, that's a good look,

178
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: like it likes playing in those two So, yeah, he's

179
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: not going to be making a lot of like top

180
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 1: five MVP ballot lists with the season he started with

181
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: so far. But could he start to get into those

182
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: conversations again as we go on. Yeah, absolutely, because it's

183
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: still an only talent. But Minnesota was a pretty obvious

184
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: winner of the weekend, I thought, especially not only beating

185
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: the thunder, I mean that's almost enough right there, but

186
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: then following it up with the victory on Sunday.

187
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're on pace for like a fifty four win season,

188
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 3: which is kind of what was expected. Their over underline

189
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: was about fifty to fifteen and a half, so they

190
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 3: are exceeding it a little bit. And as I said,

191
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 3: and as you implied about Anthony Edwards slow start, they

192
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: are turning it on a little bit earlier this season

193
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 3: than they have in the past. So Anthony Edwards slow

194
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 3: start to the season, sure, but here they come. The

195
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: question is while they go and try and get a

196
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: guard help to help create and not have to rely

197
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 3: on Dante DiVincenzo bones Hiland and literally a Conley they

198
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: or TJ. Shannon. They need one more guy, probably just

199
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 3: to help out there a little bit because they don't

200
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 3: rely on Rob Dillingham, who they yanked this weekend from

201
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: the rotation. That's the question. If they go get some

202
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: other guy, like a whole Chris Paul perhaps, I think

203
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 3: there's a chance. So they're ready. This Western Conference, man,

204
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 3: it's a bloodbath.

205
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: My biggest winner of the weekend is the Sixers backcourt

206
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: who played outstanding back to back basketball to help them

207
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 1: go to and zero over the weekend. Starting to see

208
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: Philadelphia seventy six Ers fans tweet that Vince Carter clip

209
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: where he's super emotional.

210
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 3: He's going like this ah.

211
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: And like the caption along with it is Sixers fans

212
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 1: got Maxi and Edgecomb here a backcourt for the next

213
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: decade and you're just like, I can't believe this is

214
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: our life, because it's awesome right now. On Friday, Maxie

215
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: scored thirty vj Edgecomb had twenty three. Philadelphia became just

216
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: a second team to go into Madison Square Garden and

217
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: beat the Knicks UH one sixteen, one oh seven. So

218
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 1: those two guys awesome. In the fourth quarter, they combined

219
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: for eighteen points in that final frame, and then they

220
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: followed up on Saturday, Maxie even better. He scored thirty

221
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: eight points, including seven uh during a key like fourth

222
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: quarter run and Edgecomb out of twenty six as the

223
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: seventy six ers defeated the Mavericks. These guys are legit.

224
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: This is awesome. You see a lot of these lists

225
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: right like who's got the best young squad in the league.

226
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: The Spurs come to mind, a bunch of other teams

227
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: with great young talent, But like these two, this backcourt,

228
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they're just the athleticism is off the charts.

229
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: Maxi with his speed and his like stopping go vibe

230
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: that he has and when the threes fall in, good

231
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 1: luck guarding him. And then Edgecomb is just like a

232
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: super athlete out there, and it feels like he scores

233
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: all his points either in the first quarter in the

234
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,320
Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Yeah, I feel like I don't hear room

235
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: him in quarters two to three, but it doesn't matter.

236
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: He sets the tone and then he ends all these

237
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: games with big shots. So Sixers fans feeling pretty good.

238
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: Both these wins came without Joel Embiid. Paul George sat

239
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: the one and they took care of business. Impressive. Yeah,

240
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: stuff from this back court.

241
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 3: The back court is ridiculous. Edgecombe doing it like a rookie.

242
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 3: Everything else running through, whether it's Maxi or Embid, and

243
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 3: he just plays off of them, and he does it

244
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 3: so freaking well. You could see how ready he is

245
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 3: for the moment already. He is going to be there

246
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 3: for a long time. The offensive rebounds, the hustling, just

247
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 3: diving to the floor, so you don't have to call

248
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 3: a lot of stuff for him. And as Joel Embiid

249
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,959
Speaker 3: said recently, he just has to play off of other guys.

250
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 3: But to do it without Joel Embiid for two games

251
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 3: is remarkable. So they got an incredible backcourt. They also

252
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 3: have a great front court going. Audrey Drummond can shoot threes,

253
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: all of us and he's old. He hit three threes

254
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: against the New York Knicks, by far, the most of

255
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: his career in one single game. He's hit fifteen threes

256
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 3: this season. Before the season, he had hit eighteen in

257
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 3: his career. Wow, it took him thirteen seasons to hit eighteen.

258
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 3: Now he's got fifteen this season. Old dogs can learn

259
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 3: new tricks.

260
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 1: He's old, and he is old and he plays. I

261
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: think I even heard Maxi after the Mavericks win. He's

262
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: doing like the sort of interview there on the floor

263
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: talking to the broadcast boosts, and he brought up, like,

264
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: you know, they asked him about Drummond and his contributions. Like, look,

265
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: coming in the season, I don't think we thought like

266
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 1: we got old guys ed Lowry, Eric Gordon and Drummond,

267
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: and we weren't probably expecting him to play all that much.

268
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: But Drummond has, you know, obviously with the embid factor,

269
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: and he's been awesome. And then the other big about

270
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: Dominic Barlow for the Sixers. I mean, this guy used

271
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 1: to play in the G League for the Hawks. Here

272
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: in the Skyhawks. We saw him multiple times down at

273
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: the small arena there and he's getting an opportunity, and

274
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: he's bringing the hustle and he's obviously doing the little

275
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: dirty things or like the little things make you win games.

276
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: He had an awesome player where like he hit the floor,

277
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: grabbed the ball and like through an incredible somehow pass

278
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: from his like lying down to start the fast break

279
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: for the Sixers. So, yeah, it's impressive. And in both

280
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: these wins to Nurse, he's made the decision to end

281
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: with obviously Maxi vj Edgecombe and then Jared McCain is

282
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 1: starting around in the form his shot. He still hasn't

283
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: found that. That's you know, you're waiting on that if

284
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: you're a Sixers fan. But he's looking a little bit

285
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: more like himself where he's like contributing and making these

286
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: like you know, deflections and steals and rebounds, and he's

287
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: a smart player. So with Grimes, he's struggling to score

288
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: right now. Nurse has gone to McCain a little bit

289
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: here with the superstar back court, and it's working. Like

290
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: that's a small team, but it's working.

291
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, And when we were looking forward to this season

292
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 3: and you think of the Philadelphia seventy six ers maybe

293
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 3: getting a little too old on one side, do you

294
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 3: think there's some young guys that could do things. We

295
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 3: didn't expect Fija edgecumb to be this good, and we

296
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 3: expected Jerem McCain to be part of it. So here

297
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 3: he comes to coming on to join that those young guys,

298
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 3: but contribute along with the Drummond who knew this was coming.

299
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 3: And Adam Bona I think has been really really key

300
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 3: just to help out hustle as a big man and

301
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 3: bored and block shots. So yeah, this team is becoming

302
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 3: well rounded.

303
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. Nick Nurse said about Jared McCain after Saturday Night's win,

304
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: he was a plus twenty nine, tons of poking the

305
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,720
Speaker 1: ball away, tons of just making plays, tons of getting

306
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: to the free throw line when we needed a couple points.

307
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: And then he said, and I like this, wait until

308
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 1: he goes about seven to ten from three to one

309
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: of these nights, because it's coming to Yeah, probably will

310
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: one of these days he's going to pop off and

311
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: then that shot will start dropping for him.

312
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 3: But yeah, because he started injured this season, absolutely a

313
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 3: part of it.

314
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, So six or sixteen and eleven I believe good

315
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: for fourth in the Eastern Conference and maxy is he

316
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: should be an All star starter. If you're filling out

317
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: your all star ballots, hard pressed to leave him off.

318
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Brunton's got to be there too, but we'll

319
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: get to him. But yeah, he said VJ. Edgecomb. I

320
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: think that's four straight games of twenty plus points he

321
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: was going against. Cooper was the other part of it,

322
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: a couple of nice defensive stands. I thought on Cooper

323
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: making life difficulty because his athleticism is he's just one

324
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: of these guys in a league full of athletes. He

325
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: sort of just leveled up on these guys. I think

326
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 1: liberty ballers compared to everyone else when they are playing

327
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: against him, look like they're wearing cement shoes because he's

328
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: just so explosive. He had the one stop on Cooper

329
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: flag like great d forced Cooper into sort of a

330
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: bad shot, and then he just decided to grab the

331
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: defensive rebound and he was off to the races. There

332
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: were three MAVs back and he like just like cut

333
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: his way so easily through them. They didn't put up

334
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: a lot of fight, like, Nowgie Marshall, what the hell

335
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: were you doing there? Stopped the ball a little bit,

336
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: but he does show like, oh my god, he's just

337
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: off the charts with his speed and power and just

338
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 1: poised to Yeah.

339
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 3: Hell of a rook Yeah, in a number two role

340
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 3: for the majority of the season.

341
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: It's perfect.

342
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's helped out Maxi. I did.

343
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: MAXI loves this kid. Oh yeah, of course every time,

344
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: every interview I see brings it up like just helmet's

345
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: made his life easier.

346
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a shocker that the Sixers are this good

347
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 3: that Maxi has somebody to help him. Last year at

348
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 3: the beginning of the season, you know, with the same

349
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 3: scenario with Mbat and Paul George, a lot of it

350
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: not being able to rely on those guys, he needed somebody. Bang,

351
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 3: you got a rookie, and here he is. That's why

352
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 3: it is surprising. But edgecumb is totally comfortable being the

353
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 3: number two guy. I didn't see this coming from the

354
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 3: Philadelphia seventy six ers.

355
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: Let's do another round.

356
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what and that's why I think it segues

357
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 3: extremely well to the Boston Celtics. I think we're sticking

358
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 3: with teams here that are sort of in the second

359
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 3: dish tier of their conference. With the Wolves, Sixers, now

360
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 3: the Celtics, I did not expect these Celtics to be

361
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 3: as good as they are. And what scares about this

362
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 3: scares me about them is how they beat the Heat

363
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: on Friday night because they're down in the fourth quarter,

364
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 3: but this team knows how to shoot threes and can

365
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 3: somehow come back in big ways. They can make a

366
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 3: huge swing like they did in the fourth quarter against

367
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 3: the Heat, hitting ten of fifteen threes. Splash, splash, splash.

368
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 3: Missoula will have those guys shooting threes as he has

369
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 3: in years past, and they looked fricking fantastic doing that.

370
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 3: Guys from everywhere on the floor. Jalen hit a couple,

371
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 3: Simon's hit one. Sam Houser, who he never talked about

372
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: but can obviously hit threes, hit four threes in the quarter,

373
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 3: Hugo Gonzalez, and then Derek White, who's become so hot.

374
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: He had a huge three point game overall, nine threes

375
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 3: overall to swing this game. And he started the season slowly,

376
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,439
Speaker 3: just like he did last year, and he's coming on.

377
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 3: He bumped up his three point percentage by two full

378
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 3: points on Friday night. It's as similar to last year.

379
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: And then after the game, you know, he dropped thirty

380
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 3: three six assists, five boards, blocked four shots. Eric Spoltra,

381
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 3: on the other side, said, I think he's the most

382
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 3: underrated player in the league. Does whatever you need tonight.

383
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 3: Obviously he showed to be a score in all the

384
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 3: different facets. Defensively, he just does so many things. He's

385
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 3: the best shot blocking guard in the league. I don't

386
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 3: think he is wrong. Yeah, he has been so so good.

387
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,479
Speaker 3: And the Celtics back to back. Saturday they played Toronto.

388
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 3: Yeah and uh yeah, yeah, we're gonna get into losers.

389
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 3: We're gonna get into losers.

390
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: Raptors are lucky we're not doing an actual loser segment

391
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: because they would get.

392
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: It, no doubt. They got out hustled. Yes, the guys

393
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 3: on on the bench this time. There's something again we

394
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 3: didn't expect the Celtics to have coming into the season,

395
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:28,959
Speaker 3: really the depth. Luca Garza. Luca Garza grabbed nine offensive

396
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 3: boards in this game. The Raptors got out hustled, and

397
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 3: then Hugo Gonzalez, he had ten boards, nine on the

398
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 3: defensive end, and a monstrous dunk in the fourth to

399
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 3: seal it. A rookie, they got it all to go

400
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: with Prichard's thirty three as the lead guy Payton Prichard.

401
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: Peyton Prichard always kills the Raptors.

402
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something about it. Man owns them.

403
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 1: I swear he's like as his best games always against

404
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: the Raptors. They have no answer to check the stats.

405
00:18:56,359 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 3: Peyton Pritchard versus Toronto Raptors pretty pretty damn good whatever over.

406
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: The last couple of years at least. But the Celtic,

407
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 1: the Celtics own the Raptors. I think it's like it's

408
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: an insane record of the last twenty games. It's like

409
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: seventeen to three or something like they always beat them. Yeah,

410
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: and he's always had big games. But you're right, that

411
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: was an effort, like a disappointing effort from the Raptors,

412
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: like they are holding themselves like they're this good team.

413
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: No you're not. You're like, maybe you're talented. Guys can

414
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 1: just get by on talent in Ingram and maybe Barnes,

415
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 1: but he's more of a hustle guy too, or he

416
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: should be. Everybody else has to compete and try. You're

417
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: not going to coast on talent here, guys, and they

418
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: didn't in that game. They weren't much better against the

419
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Nets too.

420
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 3: They scored eighty one points against the Brooklyn Nets. I

421
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 3: thought it was the year two thousand and one. You're

422
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 3: you're a loser the weekend if you only score eighty

423
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 3: one points. And Yaka Perle comes in after missing two games.

424
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 3: He's got back problems and they set him in the

425
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 3: first quarter because he's got back problems and he leaves

426
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 3: the game, and so that's scary. But also, guys, just

427
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 3: stop shooting. In that particular game, I didn't think we're

428
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 3: getting the losers. We'll just do this quickly Scotty bar

429
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 3: Barns specifically manual quickly to start. He got better, but

430
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 3: they weren't looking to shoot. Yeah positive, RJ Bar might

431
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 3: be back. He is in a pre game workouts blah blah. Anyway,

432
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 3: that was disappointing for the reps.

433
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

434
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 1: I think the big takeaway with our winners from the

435
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 1: Eastern Conferences the sixers to me, the Celtics, I mean

436
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 1: the Magic who did have a big Desmond Bean basically

437
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: game winning layup against the Jazz in a crazy game.

438
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: They won that one. They are a tier above the Raptors,

439
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,239
Speaker 1: and I know the records may not really see much

440
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: of a difference. You're like, what, No, they're they're No,

441
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 1: they're not. They're better teams because generally they play harder,

442
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 1: is my big takeaway. So those teams are above them.

443
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,479
Speaker 1: They are actually Like now, when you're looking at the standings,

444
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: it's really close, of course, but at the end of

445
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 1: the season they will be too. I'm a little a

446
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: little worried here about the Reps and maybe they'll make

447
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: a move to try and shake things up. But yeah, Celtics, man, Yeah,

448
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: they're like these guys. That's the thing. They always they're

449
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: gonna cut like all their guys, no matter who's playing,

450
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,160
Speaker 1: who's getting an opportunity, they're going to play hard. They're

451
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: gonna play hard and they're gonna play their role. You

452
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: have to play hard in this leap to win freaking games.

453
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the Raptors. I don't want to keep on

454
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 3: bringing up Yaka Purdle and his back problems, but it's

455
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 3: a problem. They they're thin with their bigs. And if

456
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 3: he's not playing, if he is his nickname on Basketball

457
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 3: Reference Yaka Puddle, if he is like a puddle of

458
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,719
Speaker 3: himself and he's not playing, I don't like that nickname

459
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 3: for them, but they give him this big extension. Literally,

460
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 3: he just had two games to preserve his back. They

461
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 3: haven't been playing a lot because of the contrary or

462
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,959
Speaker 3: the schedule. Man, he's hurt again. Yeah, so that is

463
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 3: that is scary. They are teeny tiny teams, so I

464
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 3: any of those teams in the Eastern Conference can just

465
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 3: bully out rebound when you got a Luca Garza.

466
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this should be the one limitation of the Celtics. Right,

467
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: they're bigs. I mean, but it's Kita Garza. Shireman, give

468
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: me some other white guy Gonzales, he said, I mean

469
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: it was Derek White and white guys destroying the Raptors

470
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: there in that first game of the weekend for them,

471
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: or second game of the Celtics, I should say. All right,

472
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: moving on another winn of the weekend. Two guys on

473
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 1: the Knicks. I want to give some love to Jalen

474
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 1: Brunson and Mitchell Robinson. We'll start with Jalen Brunson because

475
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: it's pretty obvious this guy's heater that he's on the

476
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 1: Brunson burner. The heater is not turning off anytime soon.

477
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: Led the next to the NBA Cup win last week,

478
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 1: he got MVP honors rightfully so kept his dominant ways

479
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 1: going here. Forty seven point zero turnover master class, let's

480
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: call it that. In New York's one thirty two to

481
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 1: one twenty five win over Miami on Sunday, that's a

482
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: new career high for Brunson. At Madison Square Garden. In December,

483
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: he's averaging over thirty points per game. His he's got

484
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: like a sixty one percent true shooting percentage in December.

485
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: And by the way, December, like we're like nine or

486
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 1: ten games played here. He's just one of the toughest

487
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 1: assignments for defenders because of his ability to just score

488
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: off the dribble, if we're being honest and obviously being

489
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: able to go both ways and to draw foul and

490
00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: to throw the lobs to Mitchell Robinson, just keep you

491
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: on your back heels. He's on one right now and

492
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: the three was falling there against the heat. Great game.

493
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Forty seven point zero turnovers for a guy that always

494
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 1: has the ball against a team in Miami, He's like,

495
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: they're not throwing. Uh, it's not Trey Young being put

496
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: on him. It's just freaking Davion Mitchell is a good

497
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: on ball defender. It didn't matter. They had to switch

498
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: them up. They're like, all right, you can't stop him, Wiggins,

499
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 1: you have a go at him. Nope, didn't matter. So

500
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 1: to go back to that, Tim Bontemp's MVP straw Pole,

501
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 1: Brunson did finish fifth. In that he was only on

502
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: sixty percent of the ballots. I went and checked. I mean,

503
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 1: you know, I think that's a little low. And I

504
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: think if we did it again here maybe this was

505
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: like a week or so ago, he's probably on you know,

506
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: closer to ninety, if not all hundred percent of the ballots,

507
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: whether you slought him third, fourth or fifth, because it's

508
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 1: tough to obviously knock off Shaye and Yolkic one two.

509
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, Brunson. Any thoughts on him before we get to.

510
00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 3: Mitchell, Well, he is the anchor for the opposing defense.

511
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 3: Everybody is just using his gravity unfortunately for them to

512
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 3: get sucked into the middle. They're always watching him at

513
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 3: all times, and I think he's been better at passing

514
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: away if he needs to, whether it's og or Michel Bridges,

515
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,719
Speaker 3: even though you know you get a quiet night from

516
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 3: Karl Anthony Town's two points. Yeah, no, no big, no

517
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 3: big deal. But I think John Brunson. Maybe it's endorsed

518
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 3: by Mike Brown, uses the other guys way more so.

519
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 3: There's an anchor that pulls all that gravity in. But

520
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 3: he is great at utilizing an understanding. All right, you're

521
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 3: playing to step off me or step off og to

522
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 3: help onto me. I'm using those guys and they helped

523
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 3: out just those passes even though Yeah, as you said,

524
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 3: David Mitchell, incredible defender. He's just using those other guys

525
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 3: so smartly. That's why he's going to be up there

526
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 3: in MVP voting. Who votes for MVPs it's the media.

527
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 3: I mean, it should just go to the other coaches. Really,

528
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 3: they because they know when we're planning against the play

529
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 3: playing against the New York Knicks. Regarding Brunson, Yeah, so

530
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 3: they are trying to Yeah, yeah, the plan is to

531
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 3: stop him. But he's getting much better at not holding

532
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 3: the balls as long. You know, the seconds per per

533
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 3: hold are down, and that's why his catch and shoots

534
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 3: are up. That's why the drives are up for that team,

535
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 3: That's why the passes are up for that team. They

536
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 3: look great. They're the best team in the East.

537
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 1: He had a very funny exchange with Alan Hahn after

538
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: the game too. I don't know if you saw then

539
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: on court interview. It was very funny, you know, they're

540
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: talking about the game whatever, and then Alan Hahn brought

541
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: up a bunch of crazy shots were made in this game,

542
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 1: and he sort of asked him like, what was the

543
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: biggest shot and gave a couple of suggestions, and Brunson

544
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: sort of begrudgingly went, well, Josh Hart's like forty foot

545
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: bomb that he hit. That was pretty amazing. And he's like,

546
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: I hate to say it. You know, their hilarious relationship

547
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: and because he hasn't been a great friend to me recently.

548
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: You know, the crowd's laughing, and then Allen Han it goes, yeah,

549
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: good thumb, thumbs up. Man Bretherill was walking away intern

550
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, it's pretty good, pretty good, Han.

551
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: He had that one chambered, you could tell, but it

552
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: was it was good. He's snuck it in there, maybe

553
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: like a thumb in the butt.

554
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Josh Hart. We won't get into how the Knicks

555
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 3: or I mean, I just did get into how the

556
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 3: Knicks are better, but Josh Hart is so important, Oh,

557
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 3: just like a fifth guy on that team to be

558
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 3: able to shoot threes because you could collapse way more

559
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 3: on Jalen Brounson last year than this year. He's grown.

560
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 3: He's grown. I know he has good years from time

561
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 3: to time, but he' shooting thirty nine percent from three

562
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 3: feels like he's grown. Like that bomb shot that he hit,

563
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: I mean there, you can rely on that guy more

564
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 3: a three point shooting.

565
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's like he's there igodola at this point.

566
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 1: And like I tweeted over the weekend after watching Heart

567
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: play another great game, it's like so many teams need

568
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 1: a guy like this. We talked about it last week. Yeah,

569
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: the Cats could use a Heart. The Raptors could definitely

570
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,239
Speaker 1: use a guy like Hard, Like so many squad if

571
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 1: if they don't have their own version of him. He

572
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: just does all the little things and he can shoot.

573
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 3: Now he's shooting threes though, that's that's big.

574
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: Maybe don shoot threes there.

575
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 3: For But Josh Josh Hart was struggling. I mean, yeah,

576
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 3: last year he had you will.

577
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's gonna ebb and flow like yeah, likes,

578
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: I don't think he's like, it's not the prettiest looking

579
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: shot I've ever seen, But you have to take it,

580
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: and you gotta shoot it with confidence, and yeah, you'll

581
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: go stretches maybe where he's a little cold, but yeah,

582
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: you can get on a heater. He's awesome and and

583
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: honestly it gets to the point where was like even

584
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: those games where it's not falling, he's doing a million

585
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: other things to help you win the game. He just

586
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: he takes a good team into a great team. If

587
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: the three is like going with some consistency.

588
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, And one thing I can't stand watching the Knicks

589
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 3: City Edition court. They've got the throw like it. No, no,

590
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 3: they've got the throwback to like their seventies. Yeah, so

591
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 3: the checkerboard or whatever, it's the checkerboard in the paint.

592
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 3: But I started watching it, and I was watching with Danielle,

593
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 3: and she said, oh, the blue and orange they don't

594
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 3: go together. And she's she pulls out she's in our artists.

595
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 3: She pulls out the color wheel and how the blue

596
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 3: and the orange are opposite each other on the color wheel.

597
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 3: And she showed me in the paint because they're using

598
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 3: those orange transparent like it's an orange transparent square and

599
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,400
Speaker 3: you put blue on it, they kind of gray each

600
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 3: other out. And that's what happens on the color wheel.

601
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 3: If you use opposite colors and it's grey, it's great.

602
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 3: She she went colorless. Yeah, she went and pulled out

603
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 3: the magnetiles. She showed me to them. I had them

604
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 3: in my pocket, but they must have dropped out of

605
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 3: my butt, but in the car there and got them

606
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 3: in your butt. Yeah. And so when you use yeah

607
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 3: about pocket and when you when you put them over

608
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 3: each other, they go great. It literally looks. It looks yucky.

609
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: There's a reason why they got rid of that court,

610
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 3: and they still don't rely on that nineteen seventies court.

611
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 3: This ain't the nineteen seventies.

612
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: I don't mind the checkerboard like sort of pattern. I

613
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: don't love they have like New York above the three

614
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: point line. I could do without that. It's ugly, it looks.

615
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 3: Stellars don't look good.

616
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: And the rest of it, I gotta say, Uh, Mitchell Robinson,

617
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: let's talk about him. Entering the weekend, Mitchell Robinson was

618
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: six for twenty seven from the free throw line. This

619
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: had me wondering on last week's podcast, why weren't the

620
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: Spurs in the NBA Cup Final go into a little

621
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: hack of Mitch mala Mitch, whatever we're calling it. You know,

622
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: send this guy to the line. He can't hit a

623
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: free throw to save his life, like see, make him

624
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: earn one or two, right, I was saying that. Well,

625
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: Robinson eclipsed his free throws made in one night on

626
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: Friday night, going seven for eight at the Charity Stripe

627
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: in a twenty one point performance against Philly. The Knicks

628
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: lost that game, but great job on Mitchell Robinson at

629
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: the line. I was reading about it. I guess he's

630
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: been working on changing his shot at the line a lot.

631
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: You won't believe this. Coaches told him to try putting

632
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: some arc on his shot because that guy, he's a

633
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: big dude. I get it. When you're seven feet tall,

634
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: you're gona shoot it a little differently, but like, holy crap,

635
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: he tries to put it through the front of the rim,

636
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: So trying to get him put a little more loft

637
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 1: on it. Give it a chance, big man. He's apparently

638
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 1: getting up made me laugh. Getting up at ten am

639
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: Eastern Okay, Jesus, we're already live usually at ten am

640
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: by then, but pretty funny. So he's getting in practice

641
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: before the game and he's adding it like this early

642
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: morning shoot around to his game day routine, so when

643
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 1: there's a game, gets up early and shoots free throws

644
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: at ten am. But anyway, it continued to pay dividends

645
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: because on Sunday, Mitchell Robinson went three for three at

646
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: the line. So Mitchell Robinson's free throw percentage damn near

647
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 1: doubled over the weekend. He came into Friday's game shooting

648
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: an abysmal twenty two point two percent at the line,

649
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: and after knocking down a combined ten for eleven versus

650
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: Philadelphia and Miami over the weekend, he's up to forty

651
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: two percent. Good on you, Mitchell Robinson. Man, keep training

652
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: at ten am Eastern at the free throw line. You

653
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: can get that up to plus fifty percent. I believe

654
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 1: in them. They look a lot better, but that I mean,

655
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: we're joking about it a little bit, but he's pretty

656
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 1: damn important to their championship aspirations. We know he's a

657
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: monster out there, like goblin up offensive rebounds. You want

658
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: a guy like that to be able to play in

659
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: a fourth quarter, down a stretch of a close game,

660
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: but you don't want the issue to be like, well

661
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: they can just hack them, bring the game to a halt,

662
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 1: and he just keeps missing free throws, like he's got

663
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: to just prove that he can hit them at fifty

664
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: percent is even enough? Right when you go through the numbers,

665
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: like it sort of stops other coaches from doing it

666
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: if you can just stock down one to two at

667
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: the very least. So that's good for Nick fans.

668
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 3: Just wake up at a decent time and get me

669
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 3: aloft on. I mean, I'm jealous. I'm jealous as a

670
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 3: former night person. If Mitchell is a night person, but

671
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 3: he can still wake up and get it done. That's

672
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 3: the best of both worlds, my man. Congratulations. Yeah, they

673
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: need him at the end of games. I thought he

674
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 3: was gonna be starting this season beside Karl Anton Town

675
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 3: to provide that the defensive backbone beside him. But remember

676
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 3: when you got Josh Hart, you know, bawling and being respected,

677
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 3: so you don't need to do that. But you also

678
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 3: need Mitchell Robinson to finish games. And so that helps

679
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 3: just him coming off the band and not having to start. Yes,

680
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 3: And yeah, see.

681
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: He looks exhausted after like two minutes, like he just

682
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: sort of holds himself like that, you know what. So

683
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: he's got like his tongue hanging out of his mouth.

684
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 3: He sort of like hands on his knees.

685
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he sort of walks like like with his head down,

686
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 1: sort of like, oh, he's bobbing like this, but he

687
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: just comes in there and he wrecks the offensive glass

688
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: for whatever fifteen to twenty minutes. And if you can

689
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 1: take away the strategy of the hack of Mitch, then

690
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: you're laughing because the guy can contribute whinning basketball. So

691
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: that was in pretty amazing. He had a lot of

692
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: free throws. That's a lot of free throws for the guy.

693
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 1: That was six to twenty seven. All right, one more

694
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: round of weekend winners, so you got.

695
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: Let's go to a quick one here. Yeah, Anthony Davis

696
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 3: likes Cooper Flag.

697
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: Oh opposite.

698
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. On Friday Show, we watched them beat the Pistons

699
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 3: on Thursday night, and he's trade mentioned that after makes

700
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 3: Anthony Davis a Cooper Flag just just weren't showing each

701
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 3: other a lot of love. Davis kind of wasn't giving

702
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 3: him enough of a high five when he high five,

703
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 3: and it was just it was just a love tap.

704
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 3: But then I saw the interview postgame Thursday and as

705
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 3: Cooper Flag has taken the question. Anthony Davis literally comes

706
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 3: up to him and gives him a head rub, and

707
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 3: we'll show it to you here on YouTube. You can

708
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 3: see it. Watch Anthony Davis come from behind Cooper Flag

709
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 3: and give him a head rub. Now, that's way more

710
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 3: affection than Trey mentioned. That is absolute love. We'll even

711
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 3: slow it down for you here.

712
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: Show somebody gets a nice neck, Mashaie Marshall.

713
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 3: Najie Marshall gives me a Neckchie Marshall. Next g rub. Yeah,

714
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 3: so does that mean they love each other? I don't know,

715
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 3: but I need I needed to show that just so

716
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 3: we have all the information, We gather the information and

717
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 3: we figure it out. Do you think that's love? Do

718
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 3: you think just a quick head rob? And it's more

719
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 3: than it's more than a teeny tiny high five. That

720
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 3: Trey was mentioned that.

721
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: Was that was like a proud older brother. Yeah, way

722
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: to go, kid. Yeah yeah, but not overdoing it by

723
00:33:58,880 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: any means either.

724
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

725
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: I still want more from you.

726
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah you could. Yeah, definitely interpret it as that.

727
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: Trey mentioned that he wants Anthony Davis to take him

728
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 3: under a wing, his wing as an eighteen year old kid.

729
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 3: He needs somebody he just turned nineteen. Yeah, and now

730
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 3: that might be Kyrie when he comes along. Kyrie's buying

731
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 3: everybody golf carts on the MAVs for Christmas. But he

732
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 3: wanted from Anthony Davis. I don't know if that's Anthony

733
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 3: Davis being that older brother, but it's something. It's something

734
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 3: you gotta keep a watch on. What's going on. He

735
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,439
Speaker 3: showed Coop a little love. He rubbed his head.

736
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: Okay, good, good.

737
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 3: We need to know, man, we needed to know.

738
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: I got a lot of other minor NBA weekend winners.

739
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: There's still tons left on the table here. Kevin Durant

740
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: talking his shit on Saturday to help the Rockets beat

741
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:51,479
Speaker 1: the Nuggets. That was a lot of fun.

742
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 3: That was great.

743
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 1: That was really fun as they snapped the Nuggets six

744
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 1: game win streak. And then Houston did lose to the

745
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,760
Speaker 1: Kings last night. That was last night. It was Sunday

746
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: on a you know, Westbrook great game. Hit a big shot,

747
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 1: then Den Shruder hit a big shot. Yeah, it was

748
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: a wild one. So Rockets probably would have got maybe

749
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: a winner of the weekend. Otherwise, uh Zion Williamson looking

750
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: solid off the bench. Pelicans four straight wins. Yeah for

751
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: them after getting another one over the weekends. That's good. Yeah,

752
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: I already brought up Desmond Bane.

753
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

754
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: That was a tough shot, man. I know it's like

755
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: goes in the goes in the play by play or

756
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: box score as like a layup, but like he is

757
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 1: flying to the rim and had to throw it real

758
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,799
Speaker 1: high against the Jazz. Yeah, that was tough touch to

759
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: do that, to get that to drop. That was an

760
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: entertaining game.

761
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 2: Uh.

762
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 1: And then on Sunday, the Bulls and Hawks combined for

763
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: more than three hundred points. Yeah, in regulation, they didn't

764
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: not go to overtime.

765
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 3: I was there, you went down there. It was my god,

766
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 3: you saw a lot of the Bulls.

767
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: Had like eighty three at the half. Was it two

768
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 1: eighty three?

769
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was over eighty eighty two whatever. Yeah, they

770
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 3: had nine guys score double digits. They moved that thing.

771
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,399
Speaker 3: They keep on past. They play that inside outside game.

772
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 3: They put up points just like they put up on

773
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 3: the calves on Friday, they beat them. They scored one

774
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 3: hundred and thirty six on the on the Bulls, excuse me,

775
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 3: on the calves.

776
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: They can score winner of the weekend for Chicago. Then

777
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: the Bears win, crazy comeback, I think.

778
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 3: I guess it was a cold one.

779
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, but my final winner of the weekend. I wanted

780
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: to give it to the Wemby Live experience because you

781
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: may have been a down at the Fortress on Sunday,

782
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: but I was there on Friday night right to see

783
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: Wembama play versus the Hawks. Game stunk. The Hawks got

784
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: absolutely embarrassed right from the jump. Spurs looked dominant, but

785
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: it was very fun to see Wemby in person. Had

786
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: good seats. Shout out to Nodunk's fan Cliff coming through

787
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 1: with those. So I was like, I don't know, five

788
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: or six rows back baseline right by the Spurs bench,

789
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: which is hilarious.

790
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 3: Too, way better seats than me.

791
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,040
Speaker 1: No really, Okay, well it was great, and it's just

792
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: like you're at the point if you have the means

793
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: to do it, like go see them. You gotta go

794
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: see what and be live because it is wild. Twenty

795
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: six points, twelve rebounds, He had three assists, two blocks.

796
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: He only played twenty one minutes. He came off the

797
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: bench again. He was a plus twenty nine in twenty

798
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: one minutes and they started to give him some longer

799
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 1: stints here too. He looked a little winded at times.

800
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: I thought he powered through. But this guy, it's just

801
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 1: so fun to see. And I took Nora, and Nora

802
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: was there, so she's going, oh my god, this is unreal,

803
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: like trying to like, and you're also explaining to people like, yeah,

804
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,280
Speaker 1: like he's crossing up guys and like obviously shooting threes

805
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: and it looks natural, but it shouldn't be. And I'm

806
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: like trying to unders like get it through to her,

807
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 1: like you can't be seven fours and vibe and usually

808
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: doing this type of stuff, but he can. And they

809
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,280
Speaker 1: just again, they just waxed waxed.

810
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:46,800
Speaker 3: The Hawks.

811
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: It was like, got up to like a thirty plus

812
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: lead at one point in the third quarter, and he's awesome.

813
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: Go see him if you can, Like they're to me,

814
00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 1: it's like Curry Yo Kich maybe Luke uh if you've

815
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 1: never seen Lebron, I mean, it would be fun to

816
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,919
Speaker 1: obviously add them to your list that you saw him live.

817
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: And then women Yamas there and there are many other

818
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: great players in this league, but those to me are

819
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,840
Speaker 1: the ones. It's like it's a hell of an experience

820
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:13,760
Speaker 1: to see them in person.

821
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 3: No doubt. I don't remember which podcast brought up thirty

822
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 3: front offices. If they had the choice to start a

823
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 3: franchise right here, right now, that plays a part, like

824
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 3: Yoki just getting older. You know, if they had just

825
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 3: had to pick one player, it's probably Wemby, literally all thirty.

826
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,919
Speaker 3: No disrespect to Shay, but it's probably Wemby. Now.

827
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: Injuries are kind of guy that's seven foot five that

828
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: does all that. Can you stay healthy for his career?

829
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 3: Yeah? I guess. I guess people question that because on FanDuel,

830
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 3: some way, somehow they are still not the favorites in

831
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:53,720
Speaker 3: the Southwest Division.

832
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: You love this division more than any of them.

833
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 3: It is. They're up three games on the Houston Rockets.

834
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 3: Now they've played a couple more games, so it plays

835
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 3: a part. But even if the Houston Rockets played those

836
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 3: two games and they won those two games, they would

837
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: still be up two games on the Houston Rockets.

838
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: What up with that?

839
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 3: Houston is the favorite minus one fifty five. The Spurs,

840
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 3: you know, aren't a big underdog, but they're a plus

841
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,319
Speaker 3: one twenty five. Still happening. Maybe it's because people think

842
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 3: that they're going to be some Webby injuries that happen.

843
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:24,360
Speaker 3: But well he's.

844
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: Playing half the games right now. The good thing is

845
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: the team is good.

846
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 3: Well that's the thing.

847
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like Devin Vassel was on fire on Friday night.

848
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: Castle was awesome. I mean, yeah, those two those are

849
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 1: two Georgia boys. Actually, yeah, they probably had a lot

850
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 1: of family and attendance. I wonder they were balling the

851
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: Friday night.

852
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know how gambling odds work, but maybe

853
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 3: there's more people betting on the Rockets for whatever reason.

854
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: The Rockets even though they took out the Nuggets, and

855
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 3: it was super fun to see KD do that thing

856
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,800
Speaker 3: he was dealing with his arms, you know, yeah, because

857
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 3: you don't really see a lot of that from KD

858
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 3: beating them for the first time this season because then

859
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 3: had won the first two. But they're on this road

860
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,240
Speaker 3: trip and they've lost three of four. Other than that

861
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 3: Denver win, a couple were OT losses, and actually all

862
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 3: three were OT losses that they've lost. So they're all

863
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: close games. So they deserve to be a division winner.

864
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 3: But if they do win it, but yeah, the Western

865
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 3: Conference is just is just amazing that the Spurs are

866
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 3: literally the second seed now and far ahead of the

867
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 3: Houston Rockets. It's it's tough. Okay, see Spurs, Nuggets, Lakers, Wolves,

868
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 3: and Rockets are your top six. That's tough.

869
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: Webbin Yama joined an exclusive club. On Friday Night two.

870
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 1: He recorded as one hundredth consecutive regular season game with

871
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: at least one block. Took a little while to register

872
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: that one against the Hawks, thill, because what's happening now

873
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: is and it's been happening for a long time, if

874
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 1: we're being honest, but like guys are just terrified to

875
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: even shoot when they get in there, and I'm seeing

876
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: it right there baseline when the Hawks were shooting on

877
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 1: that net. So many Hawks attack and then he's lurking

878
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 1: and you just see it. They're like, nah, I'm not

879
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna take that one. I'll kick it out.

880
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: And I wonder if that streak's gonna be snapped here

881
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: because of dwindling opportunities, not because he obviously can't block shots,

882
00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,320
Speaker 1: just because at a certain point people are like wise

883
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: up and like not even try it. Like he got

884
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: one on Dyson Daniels like sort of on a hook

885
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: attempt and he erased that. Yeah, another one we just

886
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,160
Speaker 1: pinned it against the glass. He did keep the streak

887
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 1: going against the Wizards on Sunday. I think he had

888
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: two more there. But I do wonder if that's gonna

889
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: stop at some point here he's just gonna have an

890
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: oh block game, a zero blocking because there won't be

891
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 1: a lot of opportunity, especially he's only playing half the

892
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: game right now. I wonder the only two players to

893
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: accomplish that feat Patrick Ewing one hundred and forty five

894
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: consecutive games with at least one block, and the late

895
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 1: great to Kembe Mutumbo that reached one hundred and sixteen games.

896
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 1: So Wemby should surpass that. He should, But I do

897
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: think there'll be one of these games where some smart

898
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 1: team is like, don't even shoot when he's near.

899
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 3: You, man. Yeah maybe maybe, Yeah, that's possible.

900
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: We'll see.

901
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 3: I would think, like a rebound comes and you know,

902
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 3: offensive rebound comes in, he's just there to knock somebody's

903
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 3: shot because he's just that good. I think he should

904
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 3: do it.

905
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: I was wondering too, whether the Spurs were extra motivated

906
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 1: for that win on Friday night, seeing as they do

907
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: own the Hawks first round pick next summer, or ash

908
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna check in with you. Okay, we're good, We're good,

909
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: We're good.

910
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, Yeah, we just had a well it did

911
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 3: come up on the actual feed as well. We went

912
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 3: red for here for a second. But we're back, baby,

913
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 3: but we're all good, all good. Yeah, we just had

914
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 3: a quick little oh what's going on here on the monitor,

915
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 3: you know, the red red screen came up. But then

916
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,720
Speaker 3: you drag something over to that screen and we're back, baby,

917
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 3: all good.

918
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: You know, we're getting it.

919
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 2: I don't know what just happened. I think it's just

920
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 2: because we're over time. J d's They like, we've got

921
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 2: to go to break.

922
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,080
Speaker 3: No, we don't. We will. We will get there. We'll

923
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:00,359
Speaker 3: get there.

924
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do it now. We'll take a break when

925
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 1: we come back. We have a lot of NBA news

926
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: still to tackle, so don't go anywhere.

927
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 3: Look. I was reluctant to change my wallet. I like

928
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,160
Speaker 3: my old flapper. It was a good one, you know,

929
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,399
Speaker 3: it worked yeah, most of the time anyway. But once

930
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 3: I got into modern wallets like they're supposed to be,

931
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 3: I ain't going back. You might know Ridge for their

932
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 3: unique slim wallets, Well they even got better. It's lighter.

933
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:32,440
Speaker 3: It's got cash straps. No more dropping cash, money clips

934
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 3: and air tag attachments. My flip flapper was dropping money.

935
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,920
Speaker 3: Ridge also holds up to twelve cards. I was a

936
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 3: speculative of that. Wow, twelve, right, you think there'd be fewer.

937
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 3: You think it'd be way less.

938
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: What do you think it'd be even near twelve?

939
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, because they're so slim. They are super slim.

940
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 3: It's got everything, It's got what you need. It's got

941
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 3: our FID blocking technology so it can't be digitally stolen.

942
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 3: You know, that's what a modern wallet is. It's got

943
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,399
Speaker 3: Ridge Tracker card. You'll always know where your wallet is.

944
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,320

981
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,879
Speaker 1: on the raptors a fair amount there too. But let's

982
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 1: get to some NBA news task first one, The NBA

983
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 1: sent out a league wide memo Friday informing teams that

984
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: it plans policy changes to prevent injury information from being

985
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,840
Speaker 1: leaked and used by sports betters after current and former

986
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: players were indicted in a federal investigation into illegal gambling.

987
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:28,120
Speaker 1: So the league is also considering changes to address tanking,

988
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:33,879
Speaker 1: the increase the frequency of injury reporting, and restrict what

989
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 1: sportsbooks offer. This is all according to the memo. There's

990
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,800
Speaker 1: actually like six things that they're sort of talking about

991
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: in this memo for potential change, but the one getting

992
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: all the headlines there is probably the injury reporting along

993
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 1: with the prompt bets and maybe this tanking of it all.

994
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I will say, even though I'm a positive

995
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 3: peat when it comes to a lot of things that

996
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 3: happened around the NBA. This is sort of a star,

997
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 3: but it's not really anything like they're actually establishing that's

998
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 3: going to change a lot, because yes, now teams, according

999
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,360
Speaker 3: to the memo, have to report between eleven and a

1000
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 3: one eleven and one that day. If you got a

1001
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 3: game that night, you got to report your injuries, and

1002
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 3: then from that point on, you have to report every

1003
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes whether or not there's a change, because a

1004
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:24,399
Speaker 3: lot of times guys warm up in the morning, they're

1005
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,120
Speaker 3: questionable maybe their game time decisions. So they're actually making

1006
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,240
Speaker 3: it required that you have to report every fifteen minutes,

1007
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:33,839
Speaker 3: so there isn't these huge windows where the information can

1008
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 3: leak to another person and that whole thing can happen.

1009
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 3: But why I'm a little bit reluctant here. It's not

1010
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 3: required on the second day of a back to back

1011
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:48,520
Speaker 3: according to the athletic via those memos. Now that's the

1012
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 3: athletic reporting. According to ESPN and Champs, that wasn't established whatsoever.

1013
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:56,279
Speaker 3: But that's weird. I mean, the Cleveland Cavaliers have had

1014
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 3: seven back to backs so far the season, So he's

1015
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 3: telling me that in seven games, they don't have to

1016
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 3: report that to report the problem, as you mentioned, had

1017
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 3: leaked for so many times, and this hasn't been implemented

1018
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 3: by any means. This whole report. It's a memo, So

1019
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 3: it's some chatter. That's all this really is. And as

1020
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:22,320
Speaker 3: you're saying, there's a lot of other things tanking and

1021
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,799
Speaker 3: prop betting to get to, but prop betting has got

1022
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 3: to be more rained in and so according to this memo,

1023
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 3: there are these ideas that it will be there's potential

1024
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 3: changes in prought betting.

1025
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me tell you. The NBA plans to advocate

1026
00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: for further restrictions on prop bets, including how much can

1027
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 1: be wagered limitations on under bets, reducing the number of

1028
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 1: players offered by sports books, and eliminating bets that could

1029
00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: be determined on a single play. This is all stuff

1030
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: when all of the Roseer stuff obviously came to the

1031
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:55,760
Speaker 1: forefront and all these investigations. This is like all stuff

1032
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 1: we were talking about. I remember you specifically, even the

1033
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 1: injury reports. You were saying, got to get these earlier,

1034
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,319
Speaker 1: got to get them more. You know, right now they're

1035
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: updated hourly, Like you said in theory they might move

1036
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:08,520
Speaker 1: to like every fifteen minutes, so you can stay on

1037
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 1: top of this stuff more. But the restrictions on prop

1038
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 1: bets we talked about, and it just felt like a

1039
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: no brainer to like take away some of these unders

1040
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,719
Speaker 1: that you could totally manipulate as a player, along with

1041
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,720
Speaker 1: the various people that are illegally gambling on this stuff,

1042
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 1: so that to me, they will go that direction and

1043
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: you should. You don't. We don't need to have a

1044
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: prop bet on every single player at the end of

1045
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:32,439
Speaker 1: the bench and stuff like that.

1046
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I know different sites do it differently, Like

1047
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 3: different sites don't go all the way down to fifteen

1048
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 3: players on the roster, which is one of these notes

1049
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 3: in the memo which types of players can be subject

1050
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 3: to prop bets. So John day Porter, who was guilty

1051
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 3: of spreading information of the fact that he was going

1052
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 3: to leave games, Oh my eye hurts that happened. He

1053
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 3: is an end of player guy. So maybe we just

1054
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,800
Speaker 3: get rid of anyone six through fifteen, anyone who plays

1055
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 3: off the bench.

1056
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 1: Why is there a John Tay Porter bet to begin with?

1057
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 3: Right? Right? And yeah, and currently some gambling websites don't

1058
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,280
Speaker 3: even have those, They just have top of the roster

1059
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 3: type of guys. But I think some of those the

1060
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:24,800
Speaker 3: bets where it's literally like a zero point five number

1061
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 3: of steals for Cooper Flag. I noticed one, and there's

1062
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 3: a note here from the NBA. That's one of the

1063
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 3: things that we're looking at here, getting rid of what

1064
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 3: it calls problematic bet types when it comes to over unders.

1065
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, you can get rid of over unders

1066
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:44,399
Speaker 3: entirely and just go and have teams bet on when

1067
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 3: it comes to line or when it comes to wins

1068
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 3: and losses. And I know when we were discussing a

1069
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,240
Speaker 3: few months ago, you said, well, what about the money

1070
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 3: the NBA is happy to get money from from these

1071
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,919
Speaker 3: prop bets. That being said, it's not like they get

1072
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,440
Speaker 3: direct money. It's money that goes to these gambling companies.

1073
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 3: Now to get into a deal with the NBA, there

1074
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 3: has to be some money exchange at the beginning of

1075
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,240
Speaker 3: the season, and players aren't paid directly from the bets,

1076
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,720
Speaker 3: but they do receive bri from those. Yeah, there's agree

1077
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 3: making money off right, right, So the prop bets may

1078
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 3: not be totally extinguished, but there is way I think

1079
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,279
Speaker 3: they will be. Yeah, a maximum amount that can be

1080
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 3: wager some.

1081
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: Of these like odd ones.

1082
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's it is. It is all odd whether

1083
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 3: if you do just the top three guys and you

1084
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 3: say Tyre's maxi one and a half steals like guys

1085
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 3: that are going to play, I don't know. There's lots

1086
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 3: of ways around in maximum amounts that you can bet

1087
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,359
Speaker 3: on and that kind of thing. And there's other good

1088
00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 3: things in the memo additional things. The league plans to

1089
00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:51,360
Speaker 3: upgrade its education program on gambling for players. Yep, okay,

1090
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 3: of course, of course, yes.

1091
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 1: How to deal with basically people threatening them, yeah, and harassment.

1092
00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, which that was some thing that was happening of

1093
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 3: The Athletic had had a great survey done with all

1094
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 3: the players. What was bothering them about gambling? Period? It

1095
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 3: was them being harassed by fans. Yeah, hey, by.

1096
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 1: Line and probably in person to some extent.

1097
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly both. Yeah, come on, man, I.

1098
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 1: Got you for three and a half rebounds, Get out

1099
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: there and play.

1100
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 3: You know that kind of annoying thing. So adopting new

1101
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 3: measures to protect players, coaches, and team personnel from harassment

1102
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 3: from sports betters in general, and the ability to enhance

1103
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 3: its ability to investigate unusual betting activity. Yeah, so just

1104
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 3: getting better again.

1105
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 1: A lot of this to me was like no brainer,

1106
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: no brainer, yep. We talked about that, Yeah, and people

1107
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,440
Speaker 1: said that you should explore that. Ye Like, it's like,

1108
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 1: if you're gonna be in bed with gambling companies, then

1109
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 1: you need to have all of these as money guardrails

1110
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 1: as you can to keep the integrity of it as

1111
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: much as you can.

1112
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 3: Right.

1113
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: The one thing I'll say from the memo, the League

1114
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 1: said it also has reviewed its policies around tanking and

1115
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 1: the incentives involved. The memo said part of the review

1116
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: includes potential changes to draft pick protections and changing its

1117
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 1: draft lottery rules. And that was sort of just left

1118
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 1: like that, that's leaving a lot for us to fill

1119
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,600
Speaker 1: in the blanks in. So I don't know what the

1120
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: hell they're talking about here with the tanking part and

1121
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 1: how they're going to curtail it or penalize for it.

1122
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: That was the one thing from all of this, I'm like,

1123
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:21,759
Speaker 1: what you need to know more?

1124
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, along with those additional things I said, along with

1125
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 3: the tanking, even the PROMP betting stuff, it is just

1126
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 3: stuff that they're looking at. And so it just felt like,

1127
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,400
Speaker 3: here's all the things that we're looking at as a

1128
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 3: league office, including tanking, and here's a memo. It doesn't

1129
00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,800
Speaker 3: really say anything that they're doing along with those other things,

1130
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 3: but they're thinking about it. Yeah, and that's what it is. Anyways,

1131
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 3: I want a copy of this memo.

1132
00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: We can pay it at you.

1133
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know. It should be out there should

1134
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:56,320
Speaker 3: be public information because, as I said, the Athletic reported

1135
00:53:56,320 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 3: it differently than Sean Shriana and ESPN reported it. So

1136
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:02,359
Speaker 3: why not get the details? That second day of back

1137
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 3: to back thing is weird. I get getting out there,

1138
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 3: who's injured, who's playing, reporting of every fifteen minutes, But

1139
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 3: you don't have to do it on a second day

1140
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 3: of back to back. Again, the Athletics cited the AESPN didn't.

1141
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:14,640
Speaker 3: It's weird, right, it's a.

1142
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 1: Little long, it is. I did catch up. It is odd,

1143
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 1: all right. Our next headline here, this is fun. The

1144
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 1: Minnesota Temple Wolves are hiring Kevin Garnett as a team ambassador,

1145
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 1: with a plan to honor cag's number twenty one in

1146
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: a jersey raising ceremony at the Target Center on a

1147
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 1: future date. So kg's off court role task will be

1148
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:38,439
Speaker 1: focused on business, community, fan engagement, content development. I'm sure

1149
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 1: he'll be holding a ball no matter what he's doing,

1150
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 1: slapping it, yelling at people. But the fun part is

1151
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,240
Speaker 1: that they are now in theory going to move forward

1152
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 1: with retiring his number one twenty number twenty one Jersey.

1153
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,879
Speaker 3: It's been years coming, right, Yeah, that's all. There isn't

1154
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 3: really much to say about this. Obviously, new ownership, yes,

1155
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:04,799
Speaker 3: Rodriguez and Mark Laurie is that's the big difference. It's

1156
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,800
Speaker 3: not Glenn Taylor anymore. Because Garnett thought he was gonna

1157
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 3: buy a piece of the franchise way back when Glenn

1158
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:15,319
Speaker 3: Taylor was around. It didn't happen, but he went back there.

1159
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 3: He went back there as a player and retired there

1160
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 3: because he loved the late Flip Saunders and that connection there.

1161
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 3: So he loves the team, he loves the organization, but

1162
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 3: he didn't like Glenn Taylor and they had that.

1163
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 1: He said quote, I don't do business with snakes is

1164
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:31,640
Speaker 1: the KG quote that he told the Athletic back in

1165
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:32,240
Speaker 1: twenty twenty.

1166
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,600
Speaker 3: It's real George Carl type scenario, love snake snak talk.

1167
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,359
Speaker 3: George Carl head coach, but everybody called him Snakes. You know,

1168
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 3: you're DeMarcus Cousins and all that. Either way, it's fitting.

1169
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 3: He is the freaking organization. I was surprised, though, even

1170
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 3: as a basketball nerd, to still to know that he

1171
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,400
Speaker 3: still leads the franchise and points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks.

1172
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 3: Is that just me? Esh well? Is that just me

1173
00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,600
Speaker 3: being stupid and living in the moment to know that

1174
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,399
Speaker 3: that guy leads him in everything?

1175
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 1: You're shocked because it was a while ago.

1176
00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 3: Obviously a Cat or something like somebody had passed.

1177
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 2: I think I would have thought it was been like

1178
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,359
Speaker 2: Cat or something like that. Maybe maybe even Kevin Love

1179
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 2: just the numbers he was putting up there for I

1180
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 2: just didn't play there that long. I guess you're right

1181
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 2: when you think about it, But yeah, yeah, how long

1182
00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:20,200
Speaker 2: did KG you play for the timber Wolves.

1183
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 1: He was drafted ninety five, was traded in seven.

1184
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 3: Seventy, so wow, two season more than Cat. Yep ye.

1185
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,640
Speaker 1: So that's great to see, and this is you're right.

1186
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,920
Speaker 1: They those the new owners talked about like how that

1187
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 1: was a priority to like get KG back in the

1188
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 1: fold and obviously retire his jersey. Like it is wild

1189
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,320
Speaker 1: when you think that his Jersey is retired by the Celtics.

1190
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 1: He won championships, so it's cool and that's amazing and

1191
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 1: he was still great, but like, yeah, he was the

1192
00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:52,240
Speaker 1: Minnesota Timberwolves, and because of the fallout with Glenn Taylor,

1193
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:54,439
Speaker 1: they never got to raise that twenty one of the

1194
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: to the rafters. Like it's weird that's not up there.

1195
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Simples rightfully will be up there.

1196
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:02,000
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, final piece of headline here

1197
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:06,280
Speaker 1: or final news. Blake Griffin, Jamal Crawford, and Joe Johnson

1198
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,839
Speaker 1: were among the first time nominees announced Friday that will

1199
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:12,359
Speaker 1: be considered for enshrinement into the Naysmith Memorial Basketball Hall

1200
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,320
Speaker 1: of Fame next year. Nearly two hundred players and teams

1201
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 1: were on this list, unveiled by the Hall. Because this

1202
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 1: is just like the big list, right w NBA legend

1203
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 1: Cannae Parker by far the most notable name, right, an

1204
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,800
Speaker 1: absolute lock is my point to make the Hall of Fame.

1205
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,080
Speaker 1: I'd just given you the sort of key NBA guys,

1206
00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 1: new guys, first time nominees. Yeah, do you have any

1207
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 1: thoughts on Blake, Jamal Crawford, and Joe Johnson. I know

1208
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,080
Speaker 1: we've talked about Blake Griffin before. But what do you think?

1209
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do wonder if Blake gets in. I got

1210
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 3: him in individual accolades aside.

1211
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:50,800
Speaker 1: Fist time in though first time ballots.

1212
00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, right, maybe, yeah, I think he deserves to

1213
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 3: get in. You know, six time All Star, five time

1214
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 3: All NBA. Okay, that stuff is great and all that,

1215
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 3: but he was their biggest star on social media. I know,

1216
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 3: social media. Who gives a crap when it comes to

1217
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame, but social media is a big

1218
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 3: part of the NBA world. They rely on it, they

1219
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 3: just thrive on it. And the biggest guy thriving on

1220
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 3: social media as it came up, you know, in the

1221
00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,160
Speaker 3: early two thousands was Blake Griffin. He's the best dunker

1222
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 3: of the twenty tens. When he was decapitating Kendrick Perkins

1223
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,680
Speaker 3: or masgov or Pau Gasol, he was the biggest star.

1224
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 3: And so to me, yeah, it's part of the culture

1225
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,680
Speaker 3: and sports media. I think that part is part of

1226
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 3: the NBA world. I'm not saying that the NBA is

1227
00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 3: a highlight league, like Adam Silver said, but it kind

1228
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 3: of is, and so highlights that lived on social media,

1229
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 3: lived on Twitter. I think he gets in because of

1230
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 3: that doesn't help that maybe this class isn't top of

1231
00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:56,440
Speaker 3: the top NBA players when you think about history.

1232
00:58:56,480 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: Maybe right, there's no surefire. Yeah, who's the one Hall

1233
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,439
Speaker 1: of Flame Hall of Fame lock here on this first

1234
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: time nominees or really any like obviously the returning names

1235
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 1: that are on.

1236
00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 3: The list, Yeah, there.

1237
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: Are some like well yeah, okay, maybe like look, if

1238
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 1: Blake Griffin makes the Hall of Fame, then Amaris Stottamyer

1239
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: has to be in the Hall of Fame.

1240
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 3: Exactly.

1241
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: I made a short on this once. Their careers are

1242
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: damn near identical to the point where it's almost creepy.

1243
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 1: Blake and Amari Rookie of the Year winners, six time

1244
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 1: All Stars, five time All NBA selections, similar points per

1245
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 1: game and rebound numbers over a pretty similar amount of

1246
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,960
Speaker 1: time in their careers, played for beloved teams that came

1247
00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 1: up short, be it the Lob City Clippers or the

1248
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 1: seven seconds or Less Suns, next level athletes, all the dunks.

1249
00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,360
Speaker 1: You know, again, it's really wild how similar they are.

1250
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:44,720
Speaker 1: So if one makes it, I feel like the other

1251
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: one has to make it in my opinion, And Amari

1252
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 1: is among the returning eligible candidates. That's why I asked

1253
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 1: you. You know, he's sure. Blake is like a first time

1254
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:55,840
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame I put him in. I don't know

1255
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 1: because Amari wasn't. I know, it's pretty close.

1256
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,760
Speaker 3: There's so similar when it comes to the resumes, but

1257
01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 3: when it comes to the social media highlights, that's a

1258
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 3: different nature.

1259
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:09,280
Speaker 1: Cora Murray was playing when there was a Twitter.

1260
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 3: It's too early. Yeah, well, yeah, it was before his time.

1261
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 3: But the guy who capitalized, who thrived on it, was

1262
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 3: thriving on it. So yeah, that's why I wouldn't leave

1263
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 3: him off. The other guys, I guess I didn't mention

1264
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,240
Speaker 3: right away, Crawford or Joe Johnson.

1265
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 1: I think crowd has almost a zero percent chot. Yeah,

1266
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 1: I would maybe one percent. It's very low.

1267
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 2: I can't disagree if you don't think he gets some

1268
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 2: just for his six man success.

1269
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 1: I mean that's the most only only thing you can

1270
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,520
Speaker 1: go on that he's one of the best six Men

1271
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 1: of the years players of all time. I mean he was.

1272
01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,560
Speaker 1: He's a three time NBA six Man of the Year winner.

1273
01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:51,840
Speaker 1: He finished top five another three times, so he had

1274
01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 1: a stretch there.

1275
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:52,600
Speaker 3: Well.

1276
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 1: He of course was one of the best. Here's my

1277
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:56,600
Speaker 1: biggest takeaway with Jamaldo for like not putting him in

1278
01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 1: the Hall. He did not have really much playoff success, right,

1279
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 1: and in fact, when you go and look at the numbers,

1280
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 1: like he actually was worse in the playoffs than he

1281
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:07,800
Speaker 1: was in the regular season. And it's not like he

1282
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 1: was the most efficient scorer to begin with in the

1283
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 1: regular season, Like the guy was a highlight. The guy

1284
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 1: could fill it up in a hurry. He had fifty

1285
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,000
Speaker 1: point games for like four different franchises, But he didn't

1286
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 1: shoot the hell out of the ball. Like it's low percentages,

1287
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: low three point percentages. He was like a volume shooter, right,

1288
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:23,840
Speaker 1: that's what you want from a six man, Like, come in,

1289
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,600
Speaker 1: no conscience, fire away, you're gonna win some games. Maybe

1290
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 1: you'll shoot us out of some other ones. Yeah, but

1291
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:31,960
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, like tell me at Jamal Crawford playoff

1292
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:34,560
Speaker 1: moment for one, literally literally not one.

1293
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:35,040
Speaker 3: You can't.

1294
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 1: You can't. He shot thirty eight percent in the postseason,

1295
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 1: Like it's not good like sub forty for a guy.

1296
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:41,960
Speaker 1: This whole thing is scoring.

1297
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 2: I guess I just I just asked a question, just

1298
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:46,360
Speaker 2: because I've heard you guys talk about the Hall of

1299
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 2: fame all these years, and you always say some of

1300
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,360
Speaker 2: these guys can get in, because can you tell the

1301
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 2: story of basketball without him?

1302
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:52,960
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1303
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,439
Speaker 3: Right? And with him?

1304
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:56,800
Speaker 2: And as a six man, there's only a few people

1305
01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,560
Speaker 2: you think of as like, oh, yeah, six man guy,

1306
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 2: you know. So I was just curious, like if we

1307
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:03,240
Speaker 2: thought he gets in, but you know this this class.

1308
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 2: I was looking at the list the other day, I

1309
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 2: think Malika announced it and like, I saw Sheldon Williams

1310
01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:12,520
Speaker 2: on here. I saw Brandon Roy in this list, Like.

1311
01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:13,880
Speaker 3: What do we do?

1312
01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 1: The list is huge, like I said, it's like two

1313
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 1: hundred people, interesting teams as well.

1314
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brandon Roy would have got there if he wasn't hurt,

1315
01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 3: I think, But he didn't play Sheldon Williams. Where did

1316
01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 3: that come from?

1317
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 1: I mean college success?

1318
01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 2: That's what I was curious about. I saw was it

1319
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 2: a Booney Jones tweet? And he said who's that last name?

1320
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,240
Speaker 2: And I had to go like, I want a video

1321
01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:35,600
Speaker 2: and look at the bottom of the list, and it

1322
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 2: said Sheldon Williams.

1323
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: Didn't Sheldon Williams. Wasn't he married to Kandas?

1324
01:02:39,520 --> 01:02:41,480
Speaker 2: He was married to Kandas Still, for the life of me,

1325
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,480
Speaker 2: don't understand that one, but I'm not gonna get that right.

1326
01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, Sheldon Williams, Yeah, that's weird, crazy. I don't

1327
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: like it sounds like I'm shooting on Jamal Crawford. But

1328
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:52,440
Speaker 1: I just don't think he's that to me at a

1329
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:53,800
Speaker 1: certain point that you have to have a call off

1330
01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 1: for these things. I don't have him in the Hall

1331
01:02:56,160 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 1: of Fame, right, But like I don't I'm not going

1332
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,320
Speaker 1: to have Lou Williams in the Hall of Fame. Yeah,

1333
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,280
Speaker 1: like you said, like a notable six Man of the

1334
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 1: Year winners, Like who else are you throwing on that list?

1335
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,280
Speaker 2: I mean, guys, it's those two and then Genobli. But

1336
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:11,720
Speaker 2: Genoba's in right, Yeah, but he won championships the greatest

1337
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 2: six man But how many did he win? And then

1338
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 2: how many did Lou and.

1339
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 1: Well I think they both won three each, and I

1340
01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 1: think Genobili only won one.

1341
01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 2: See that's what I mean. So, like he's got some

1342
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 2: awards like these, this is different. It's unprecedented when it

1343
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 2: comes to six man because we've got MVPs and like

1344
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,560
Speaker 2: Defensive Player of the Years, but a six man award

1345
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 2: you don't see people winning that multiple times. And these

1346
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 2: two are you know, top three greatest six man of

1347
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:39,360
Speaker 2: all time? Like maybe that gets him in. I feel

1348
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 2: like arguing that over even Task's argument for Blake because

1349
01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 2: I don't know Blake and like Joe Johnson, I don't

1350
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:47,439
Speaker 2: know why he's on this list.

1351
01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 1: Joe Johnson, I think does have a better chance than

1352
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:54,240
Speaker 1: Jamal Crawford to make it. Just on point seven time

1353
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:56,520
Speaker 1: All start Yeah yeah, okay, yeah, seven time All starr.

1354
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 1: He only made one All NBA team, so it is

1355
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:00,160
Speaker 1: a little weird. So he was helped out by the

1356
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 1: Eastern Conference all that. I think Basketball Reference has Joe

1357
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:06,440
Speaker 1: Johnson like a fifty percent chance to make it wo.

1358
01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 1: By the way, I have Jamal Crawford a zero percent chance, yeah,

1359
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:09,640
Speaker 1: to make it.

1360
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,240
Speaker 3: I think Blake Blake was also like a fifty percent chance,

1361
01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:15,960
Speaker 3: just like Joe Johnson. Joe Johnson, to me, though, is

1362
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 3: going to go the way of like a LaMarcus Altridge,

1363
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 3: an incredible player when he played, scoring a lot of points,

1364
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:26,920
Speaker 3: but you know the whole Can you tell the story

1365
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,440
Speaker 3: of basketball and will he be remembered? I don't know,

1366
01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:31,400
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean yesterday when we went into

1367
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:35,160
Speaker 3: the Hawks game, kids were getting Jalen Johnson Jerseys. That's

1368
01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:37,200
Speaker 3: when I brought up, oh, Joe Johnson's been nominated for

1369
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,720
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame and and my friend Phil said, well, yeah,

1370
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:44,320
Speaker 3: it's also great that that's probably the most common NBA

1371
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:50,400
Speaker 3: last name in history, Johnson. You can just keeping Williams Johnson. Yeah. Listen,

1372
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,640
Speaker 3: as far as the six man goes, there isn't a

1373
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:54,800
Speaker 3: six man wing of the Hall of Fame, and I

1374
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,080
Speaker 3: think that that plays a part, Like if there was,

1375
01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 3: then it's different.

1376
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 1: But well, to begin with is a funny concept. It's like, like,

1377
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 1: I think it's important, it's vital, but it's also saying

1378
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 1: you're not good enough, like to start, or we don't

1379
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:13,440
Speaker 1: want you to start because of maybe defensive limitations or whatever.

1380
01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 1: Like what I'm like, it's this sort of funny when

1381
01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 1: you think about it. Yeah, yeah, you're not even yeah,

1382
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,600
Speaker 1: you're not even good enough, or we want you to

1383
01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: come off the bench. We prefer you coming off the bench.

1384
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:25,680
Speaker 1: And it's a skill. It's a hell of a skill.

1385
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 3: In a current current six men, I think I think

1386
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 3: of Jason Terry as a more prominent guy who made

1387
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:34,520
Speaker 3: more of a mark in the playoffs. You know, he

1388
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:36,919
Speaker 3: won it with the Dallas Mavericks because he was super

1389
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:39,480
Speaker 3: important and came out and performed even though he didn't

1390
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 3: win as many as as these guys Lou and Jamal Crawford.

1391
01:05:47,840 --> 01:05:50,160
Speaker 3: But I couldn't do it. I didn't put Jason Terry

1392
01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 3: in even though the guy was the guy was a

1393
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 3: bucket as well. You know, he got to be a

1394
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 3: multiple time All start.

1395
01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:58,160
Speaker 1: If you go through the list of six More of

1396
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 1: the Year winners, there are not a lot of Hall

1397
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:03,440
Speaker 1: of famers, Like I know, Kevin McHale was at one

1398
01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 1: point coming off the bench for early so he turns

1399
01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 1: into a Hall of Famer, Like who else? There's not

1400
01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:14,760
Speaker 1: a lot.

1401
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 2: Is the most one, okay, I think so? So yeah,

1402
01:06:17,680 --> 01:06:18,760
Speaker 2: that's just curious.

1403
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's interesting. I did see, uh, speaking to

1404
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: six Man of the Year winners. This guy won two

1405
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 1: of them. I don't even think his name was on

1406
01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: the list. And he was a little upset on Twitter.

1407
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:32,520
Speaker 1: That left Shrimp not even on this like two hundred

1408
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: plus people list to be eligible. That was a little weird.

1409
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,480
Speaker 1: He was a good player. I don't think he's all

1410
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 1: gonna make the Hall of Fame, but he's like whole

1411
01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 1: thing was like not even be on this nominee list.

1412
01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 1: Weird to me.

1413
01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:47,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he wasn't a long career. Yes, somehow he

1414
01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,480
Speaker 3: got into my algorithm as well because he was on

1415
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 3: those Portland trail Blazers that almost knocked off the Lakers

1416
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 3: in that conference finals as the Lakers went to their

1417
01:06:56,920 --> 01:07:00,080
Speaker 3: three peat. What a team got just got fed that

1418
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:04,200
Speaker 3: algorithm of Rashid Wallace, Steve Smith, Vitas the bonus. What

1419
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:06,400
Speaker 3: a freaking team that was. So I went down that way,

1420
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, six men don't make it, and I guess not.

1421
01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 3: I guess I get you're right, it's a vital spot,

1422
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 3: but you should probably be like top three four player

1423
01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:18,320
Speaker 3: on your team kind of thing, you know.

1424
01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 1: And if you're not, then you need to be like Gnobili,

1425
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:25,240
Speaker 1: where it's like, oh, you have massive playoff success and

1426
01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:27,439
Speaker 1: are winning a ton of championships and you're a part

1427
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,760
Speaker 1: of the reason why, whether you're starting games or and

1428
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:33,720
Speaker 1: just ending them like he was. Yeah, it's like there's

1429
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:34,800
Speaker 1: levels to this thing.

1430
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 3: And a gold medal in the Olympics knocking off the

1431
01:07:37,920 --> 01:07:42,959
Speaker 3: US that was obviously monstrous No. Four and he could

1432
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 3: have easily been starting and playing way more with the Spurs.

1433
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:48,560
Speaker 1: But he was not to wrap this up, I do

1434
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: think Blake eventually makes the Hall of Fame, just like

1435
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:54,560
Speaker 1: I think Amari Will, and I do not think Jamal Will,

1436
01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 1: and I do not think Joe Johnson. Will.

1437
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:58,320
Speaker 3: You think a Mario Will as well?

1438
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 1: Because like I said, if Blake eventually gets and then

1439
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: I think you gotta put them. That's my thinking on it, Like,

1440
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,640
Speaker 1: how do you differentiate the two? To me? Damn, it's

1441
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 1: pretty damn similar. All right, that's some news. Let's get

1442
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 1: to Lovely love Bye of the Night sponsored by John Horn.

01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:28,920

1448
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,880
Speaker 1: goes to Nick's captain Jalen Brunson, who we talked about

1449
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:37,760
Speaker 1: earlier in the show. Forty seven points perfect at the

1450
01:08:37,800 --> 01:08:39,840
Speaker 1: free throw line, eleven for eleven, hit a bunch of

1451
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 1: threes too. You had eight assists, added three boards, but

1452
01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:47,320
Speaker 1: forty seven in the garden that is his, like I said,

1453
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 1: high in Madison Square Garden, which then got me thinking,

1454
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 1: what's the all time high for a Knicks player in

1455
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:55,679
Speaker 1: Madison Square Garden? It's got to be mellow, right, probably mellow?

1456
01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:56,800
Speaker 1: Sixty two?

1457
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:57,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

1458
01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 1: Well, well, brunt beat that. I probably say no, Probably

1459
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 1: say no.

1460
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:06,160
Speaker 2: He said the highest for a Nicks player in the garden.

1461
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:08,559
Speaker 2: Uh it was or highest for.

1462
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 1: Well, what's I said? What's the highest for the next

1463
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:11,120
Speaker 1: player in the garden?

1464
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:11,240
Speaker 3: Oh?

1465
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 1: For Picket's mellow?

1466
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:13,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, mellow.

1467
01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:15,400
Speaker 1: But Brunson was this is his high in the Madison

1468
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:18,080

1485
01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 3: Let's get some pickums. Yeah.

1486
01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 1: I had a loss there on Friday night, so did

1487
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:00,599
Speaker 1: Trey because we had the Locks and you too, Spurs.

1488
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,640
Speaker 1: So Trey and I are battling here tasks at the

1489
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:05,800
Speaker 1: bottom of the standing. You're twelve and three, you're fine,

1490
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:08,160
Speaker 1: Tray seven and eight. I'm five and ten. So we're

1491
01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,599
Speaker 1: starting to run out of games here in December because

1492
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,120
Speaker 1: obviously because of the weird break here with the schedule.

1493
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:16,240
Speaker 3: But where we're going, Dallas, going into New Orleans where

1494
01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 3: they're facing the team that has won four basketball games

1495
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:21,200
Speaker 3: in a row. It's pretty incredible. The Peals have won

1496
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,559
Speaker 3: four in a row. So it's a very close line

1497
01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:26,679
Speaker 3: to Pells are favored by one and a half. I'm

1498
01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:30,920
Speaker 3: comfortable taking them. I'm excited to take them, and so

1499
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 3: are you. Yeah, well, well Trey's got to take the

1500
01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:36,240
Speaker 3: mass He's got no choice.

1501
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:39,599
Speaker 1: All line, tough one to pick both. Yeah, both teams

1502
01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 1: are at least playing a little bit better. But yeah,

1503
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:43,559
Speaker 1: I'll go Pells ride in this little wave.

1504
01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,400
Speaker 3: It is incredible. This Peals is ion coming off the

1505
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,880
Speaker 3: bench still in the last game, he had twenty nine

1506
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:51,000
Speaker 3: off the bench against the Spacers, where they had sixty

1507
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:54,320
Speaker 3: six off the bench in total. The Pels, who knew

1508
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:58,720
Speaker 3: coming on here? I it's I almost wanted to make

1509
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:01,280
Speaker 3: the Hawks a loser the weekend because the Pels are

1510
01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 3: getting good and the Hawks are getting the Pells draft

1511
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:08,000
Speaker 3: pick best coming. Now. The Hawks had a bad weekend,

1512
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:09,479
Speaker 3: for sure, they sure they sure did.

1513
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 1: They got smoked by the Spurs and gave up one

1514
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty plus to the to the Bulls.

1515
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:18,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, another Hawks and could have a great still have

1516
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 3: a great draft pick, but because the Pels aren't, like,

1517
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:23,680
Speaker 3: you know, they're not making the playoffs right now, but

1518
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:27,599
Speaker 3: they're still ahead of a bunch of teams, or they're coming,

1519
01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:30,080
Speaker 3: you know, coming in line with a bunch of teams.

1520
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:33,080
Speaker 3: So it'll be fun. Anthony Davis also going to play

1521
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 3: his old team in New Orleans tonight, so it should

1522
01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:36,160
Speaker 3: be a fun one.

1523
01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:38,679
Speaker 1: Okay, is that one on league pass tests?

1524
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:43,280
Speaker 3: Let me click click, I don't know, I'm unaware.

1525
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 1: Well I bring that up because we got a little

1526
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:46,400
Speaker 1: league passed.

1527
01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:52,599

01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:03,160

1602
01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:04,960

1603
01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 3: gotta blow this thing up. What are we gonna do here?
