I think 29 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 4: it's better time. I think it's better time. 30 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 3: People want to know what Norm Powell thinks about the 31 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 3: Clippers in November. That's the real question. 32 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 2: What does he think about him in November? He was 33 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: balling in November, no doubt. Oh, I forgot to watch. 34 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 2: And one other person is here. You might know him 35 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: as our former assistant producer, Jerome Chang back in the 36 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: building hanging with a law. Unfortunately, he didn't bring an 37 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: XLR cable with him, so he can't speak today, which is, 38 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: you know, good for all of us here. It's good 39 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 2: to have an adversarial relationship with your guests when you 40 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 2: start a podcast. What are your guys thoughts and here 41 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: in Atlanta this winter weather we're experiencing. 42 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, lots of patches of snow, little patches of ice outside. 43 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 4: Seems to be really disrupting everybody here in the city. 44 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: So I hope you guys are able to rally and 45 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 4: kind of, you know, recover from this. 46 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 3: After a shift at the factory yesterday, I almost wiped 47 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: out just going down the hill here. 48 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Yeah, that's one of the most 49 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 2: dangerous areas in all of Atlanta. People say, but we're 50 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 2: glad to have you here. We got a lot of 51 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 2: stuff to talk about today, including the NBA All Star 52 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: starters announced last night. Well, let's take a look at 53 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 2: what they're calling the starter pool, because of course these 54 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: guys will be drafted from the Eastern Conference. We've got 55 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: giannis Ante Takumpo, who led all players in voting for 56 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 2: the second straight year. Jalen Brunson got the second guard spot, 57 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: though LaMelo Ball led the fan vote. Brunton finished third 58 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 2: in fan voting but second in players and media voting, 59 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 2: so he jumps up to the starting spot. Carl Anthony 60 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: Towns getting his first All Star start his fifth selection, 61 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: and then Jason Tatum and Donovan Mitchell their sixth selections. 62 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 2: Out West, Lebron led the West in voting, his record 63 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: twenty first All Star Game incredible. Kevin Durant making his 64 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: fifteenth appearance as an All Star. He's tied for the 65 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 2: fourth most all time alongside Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Shaquille O'Neil. 66 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: Only Lebron, Kareem and Kobe are ahead of him for 67 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 2: all time selections. Steph Curry it's his eleventh All Star game, 68 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: getting the start in San Francisco, that's cool. Nikole Jokic 69 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: his seventh All Star game. In Shay Gilders, Alexander gets 70 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: his second straight start. I don't know, looks pretty good 71 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: to me. Any complaints though from you guys on who 72 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: we're getting for the starters. 73 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: Here, No no complaints. I think the usual suspects are here. 74 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 4: I think the interesting wrinkle with the TNT guys drafting 75 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 4: their teams of eight players is gonna be really interesting. 76 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 4: But even just looking at this, you know, I kind 77 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 4: of wish they would just kept the conferences because we 78 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 4: saw Steph, KD and Lebron at the Olympics. Would have 79 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 4: been cool to see them in this environment. I'm sure 80 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 4: they would have wanted to be a little competitive against 81 00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 4: some of these younger guys. 82 00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: In the East. 83 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 4: So yeah, we'll see, we'll see. I Charles Brockley takes 84 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 4: Kevin Durant don't to hate each other. 85 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: Interesting. 86 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: It would be fun to see old heads versus young heads. 87 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 3: I think this is what the league really needs right now, 88 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 3: like that little kind of transition period. The only thing 89 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 3: for me is I would have left to see Wemby 90 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 3: voted in as well. Yeah, I feel like Wenby especially. 91 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 3: I know we're gonna talk about a little bit later 92 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 3: on what he's doing in Paris right now, but like, 93 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 3: I don't know for the future of the league. It 94 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 3: feels like he's already deserving to be in this list, 95 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: which is crazy because it's like, who are you knocking off? 96 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 3: Like Kevin Durant, right, but like he's been as good 97 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: as Kevin Durant this season, which is ridiculous, if not 98 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 3: arguably better. 99 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, if it was just straight up 100 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: how they're performing this season, maybe it is Wenby. He's 101 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 2: having a great year, and you know, Durant's been in 102 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: and out of the lineup. Sons are struggling, but they're 103 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: still better, I guess than the Spurs are. But yeah, 104 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 2: Wenby would be cool to see start. Who do you 105 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: think gets picked first? Well, first overall pick. 106 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 3: I mean it's probably gotta be bron I mean, you 107 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 3: know how these things go, there's a lot of politics involved. 108 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: You know, I'm gonna go with thekitch Man. There's one year. 109 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 4: There's one year when Yo kitch was left as the 110 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 4: last pick. Yeah, when the players are drafting, I think 111 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 4: it's time to flip the screw and show some respect 112 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 4: to the Joker. 113 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 3: He doesn't play hard in the All Star Game. I 114 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 3: love Jokics, man, but he just goes out there and 115 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: tries to you know, do well you. 116 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 4: Got you gotta shame him into trying harder, and by 117 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 4: picking him first, he's, you know, get motivated a little 118 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 4: bit by shak or Kenny. I just love I love 119 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 4: El Layer's this format. 120 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: Is what do you think, Tay, Who's going first? 121 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to be an oldie, that's for sure. 122 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: This could be the last time we see an oldie 123 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: as a starter. It is so close. When you break 124 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: down Lebron Durant versus wemby, Anthony Davis is deserved as well. 125 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: I guess you look at the Lakers, they are the 126 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: best of those teams. They are damn good team. Six 127 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: games about five hundred, damn good team? Are they a 128 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: damn good team? As I say that they're good, they're 129 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: very good, better than those other teams. So I think 130 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: that factor in. But it's just the old heads, that's 131 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 1: the part of it. I looking at La Melo Ball, 132 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: how close he was to starting. That's the surprising thing, 133 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 1: because the fans account for fifty percent and then twenty 134 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: five from the media and twenty five from the players. 135 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: The players wanted him badly. Yeah, fans had him first, 136 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: and they had him third, higher than Trey Young, Kate Cunningham, 137 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: Darius Carlin, Tyree s Maaxy and Damian Lillard and Tyler 138 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: Herroll way higher. It's just that the media didn't want 139 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: him in comparison. They had him seventh behind a bunch 140 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: of those guys. I said, So that's what it came 141 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: down to, as you, as you said, Will, it's a 142 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: point where the NBA wants the younger guys to get 143 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: in there, and so LaMelo being close, maybe he'll probably 144 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: get in very very soon as a starter. 145 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 3: Well, the thing with LaMelo is he plays every game 146 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 3: like he's in an All Star game, exactly right. So 147 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: he's already had twenty nine points a game. The fishings 148 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 3: he can come up, but like, this guy also leads 149 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 3: the league in one foot of threes, why does this 150 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: become a signature move in the league. By the way, 151 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: he's sick man. 152 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: One guy does that and everybody's like, wait a second, 153 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: should try that? Yeah, it's pretty amazing. But I think LaMelo, 154 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 2: I mean, he's going to be borderline for like the 155 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 2: coaches picking him as a reserve. But I think the 156 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 2: fact that he won the fan vote and finished third 157 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 2: in the player's vote, this guy should be an All 158 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: Star based on that, because literally, if it's the media 159 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: vote that keeps him out of the All Star Game, 160 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: I think that's silly, Like, it's not a game for 161 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: media people, it's a game for fans, and you know, 162 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: the players want the respect amongst the other players. So 163 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: if the fans love them and the players love them, 164 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: it shouldn't be on us haters keeping him out of 165 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: the game. Because the dude is awesome to watch and 166 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: it's gonna be hilarious in an All Star game. So 167 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 2: I'm pro LaMelo even if he's like the twelfth guy, 168 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: Yeah that gets selected. 169 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: I hate getting into the numbers of it all, but 170 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: I think it it actually worked out. Okay, this was 171 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: created because Zaza Peculia was a starter. That's why this 172 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: format was created. There's no doubt because he ain't LaMelo Ball, 173 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: Let's be quite honest. 174 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 2: That would be a different experience with Za on the 175 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: All Star Game. 176 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: Although fans love him just as much as they love 177 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: LaMelo ball because they came after us. They came after 178 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: the starters. When we were on NBA TV and we 179 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: commented about Zaza Peculia shouldn't be a starter. 180 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: Oh we got some hate you hate? 181 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: Oh ye. 182 00:07:58,960 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 3: Georgia versus Georgiana. 183 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, Yeah, So Melo will be there eventually. I 184 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: don't think he makes it because, as I said, all 185 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: those guards in front of him, Caid is going to 186 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: be picked before him. I would imagine Trey is picked 187 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: before him. There's the Dame, there's the hero. Garland has 188 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: to be there. There's too many guards. 189 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 3: There are a lot of guards. 190 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm still Promello and I actually think Steph 191 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: Curry should be the first pick. They're playing at San Francisco. 192 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm okay with him starting because it is 193 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: San Francisco. Anthony Edwards numbers are better. He's he's become 194 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: Steph part two. Like he learned how to shoot a three, 195 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: apparently at the Olympics from him. Sure, because he is 196 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: a ridiculous. He's got the most threes in the league, 197 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: and he said, I learned it from that guy. But 198 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: Steph deserves to be I that's a good call. 199 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 2: Are you guys excited for the tournament format of the 200 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 2: All Star Game? 201 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: I am excited. I think it's time to kind of 202 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 4: switch it up a little bit, and I think with 203 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 4: the draft, I think it is going to get a 204 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 4: little bit more competitive. Plus they've plus I've got that 205 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 4: little fourth team coming in right, like from the Rising Star. Yeah, 206 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 4: so I love lost here. Yeah, it's kind of like 207 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 4: when you know college team goes up against like NBA 208 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,719 Speaker 4: players or something. So I think it'll be interesting to 209 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 4: see the competitive nature. And yeah, I don't know, nothing 210 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 4: can be worse than last season. All Sorry, Yeah, I 211 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 4: think we'll be fine. Will be what happens will Wenby 212 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 4: in that situation, because both, right, he's both teams. They're 213 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 4: gonna have to clone him and we're gonna need to. 214 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: And it's gonna be weird though, Like the Rising Stars 215 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 2: are gonna be on the back to back and the 216 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: all start, they might have to rest. 217 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna I think he's gonna have to 218 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 4: tell Grady Dick that he's gonna join the team with 219 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 4: Kevin Durant. 220 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like the Jimmy Butler beats the starters with 221 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 3: the first fingers like I actually wants ready to be 222 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 3: like I want to own the league. Now, I'm gonna 223 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 3: take Grady Dick, I'm in Thompson and like whoever else, 224 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 3: you know, let's run it back from our Where were 225 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 3: they playing? That's ninety two, MAT's ninety two. Yeah, that's 226 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: ninety two team. Yeah, oh my god. 227 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: The Rising Star still happens on Friday, So they Rising. 228 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: Starts on Friday. 229 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: You're exactly right. 230 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: They do get to rest. Blessings, blessings. Yeah, that's good, 231 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 2: good news. Anything else about the All Star starters or 232 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: anybody you want a campaign to make to get a 233 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 2: selection as a reserve. 234 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is actually a bit off the board, you know, 235 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 4: you guys talking about LaMelo Ball, you know. NBA also 236 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 4: announced the musical performances that are going to be taking 237 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 4: place at All Star saw the Chain Smokers are headlining, 238 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 4: amongst others. We can't get le Angelo Ball there as well. 239 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: How's that? How's that? 240 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 4: This just seems like this seems perfect, Like what are 241 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 4: we what are we doing here? 242 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? 243 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 2: Is Tweaker taking over Toronto like it is here in 244 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: the United States? 245 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, Tweakers worldwide? Right now? 246 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 3: I can't report. I can't report that me and Jerome 247 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 3: were at TMU at local university in Toronto known as 248 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: Toronto Man's University, and uh yeah they were. They were 249 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 3: blasting nothing like crazy and people every were dancing to it. So, 250 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: you know, like the only thing is I feel like, 251 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 3: having watched the lines performance with Angelo, he has zero 252 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 3: stage presence. He's just like, yeah, okay, yep, it's at 253 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 3: the corner and I'm like, all right, Like, let's just 254 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 3: let's work on that in the next like month before they. 255 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 4: All he sold Big Sham's breaking news saying he signed 256 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: with Death Jam. That's like the biggest signing that we've 257 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 4: seen in season so far, all. 258 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 2: The bigger moves. Yeah, the NBA season so far definitely, 259 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: well you mentioned it. It didn't get the start yet, but 260 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: Victor Webbin Yama did have a one man All Star 261 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: game yesterday in the NBA Paris Game, thirty points, eleven rebounds, 262 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 2: six assists, a steal, five blocks, and four threes in 263 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 2: a thirty point victory. At one point, he blocked three 264 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 2: straight shots from the Pacers. He basically ended his night 265 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: by throwing the ball off the backboard to himself for 266 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 2: a dunk in a regulation NBA game. What do you 267 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 2: guys think about Wemby here in his second season and 268 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 2: is it next year that he's like the face of 269 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: the league, one of the you know, the best player. 270 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: I don't know, it could be. 271 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 3: The craziest thing is like watching the highlight pack of 272 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 3: what he did in this game. He makes plays that 273 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 3: number one, he makes plays that no one else in 274 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 3: the league can make. He's already one of these game 275 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 3: changing players in the way that like Shaq was a 276 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 3: game changing player, Like they're gonna be players like when 277 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 3: in Shack's era where their only role was to step 278 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 3: in there and foul him six times. Yeah, you know, 279 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 3: like he was employing just professional foulers. Like there will 280 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 3: be some sort of like defensive scheme eventually around Wemby 281 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 3: and they'll have to have specifically have players just specifically 282 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 3: designed to play against Wemby. But it's like he makes 283 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 3: the plays that you know no one else can make, 284 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 3: and then he's also good at making just regular people 285 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 3: plays Like it's not fair. It's not fair. If you 286 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 3: watch the highlights, he's like sometimes acting like a shooting guard. 287 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,599 Speaker 3: Sometimes he's pulling up for three Obviously he's playing a 288 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 3: lot at the rim as well. He's pushing the break, 289 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 3: he's making great passes to himself and also to his teammates. 290 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 3: He's like, you can't even play a regular game of 291 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: basketball around the rim when he's there. And it's like, 292 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 3: it's not fair. Like Miles Turner, he's seven foot tall, 293 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 3: you know, one of the best shot blockers in the 294 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: league for a very long time now, and Wemby just 295 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: shoots over the top of him, like without even adjusting 296 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 3: a shot. No one shoots over the top of it. 297 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 3: That's ridiculous, you know. It's like, so I think, Yeah, 298 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously he was home. This is a great showcase. 299 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 3: But I think this is pretty clear, like the future 300 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,079 Speaker 3: of the league is Wemby's And the fact that the 301 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 3: Spurs are even twenty and twenty two is outrageous. This 302 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 3: team only won twenty two games last year. Wow, that 303 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 3: is impressive. 304 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I love watching him play, Like the passing. 305 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 2: He shouldn't be this good of a passer. Yeah, that 306 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: seems unfair to me. Like, yeah, you can, Okay, I 307 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: understand you score inside. You're seven foot five, you've been 308 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 2: working on your jump shot. You can shoot, but you're 309 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 2: adding the passing as well. I also love the Wemby 310 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 2: shows up in every big game, right, like the Golden 311 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: Medal game. He was one of the best players on 312 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 2: the court. You put him in NBA Paris, He's going 313 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: back to play in front of his home crowd. He 314 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: has the best game of anybody on the court. It 315 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 2: seems like he is always up for the moment. He's 316 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 2: obviously got great work ethic, a personality like he's showing 317 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 2: up to play chess in the park. It really feels 318 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 2: like the guys got it all. Alex, do you have 319 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 2: a Wembiniyama jersey yet? 320 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 4: Not yet, but that might have to be done. Yeah. 321 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 4: I think this. I think this is really the last 322 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 4: season where we're not gonna see the Spurs like as 323 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: a contender. I think from here on out next year, 324 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 4: like even looking teams up top like an Okay see 325 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,319 Speaker 4: or like even Denver, some of these other teams, like 326 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 4: they gotta start worrying about this, like the Spurs are 327 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 4: coming and I think starting next year they're gonna be 328 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 4: in that conversation. And assuming they make a couple of 329 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 4: right moves. Obviously, you always talk about health with these 330 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 4: players and Wenby is healthy, like they're gonna go on 331 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: like a pretty long run of contention and once I 332 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 4: can't wait to see Wemby in that playoff environment, like 333 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 4: just what he's gonna look like, even if it's this 334 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 4: season in like a play in game, like in that 335 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 4: one game environment, just seeing those two three minute stretches 336 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 4: where he just completely takes over, it's gonna be breathtaking 337 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 4: against the Lakers. 338 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 2: Exactly right. 339 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you mentioned that other teams are gonna be looking 340 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: for guys just to foul Webbin. Yamen, you mentioned the Lakers. 341 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: That's what sort of Anthony Davis did yesterday when he 342 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: was talking to Shan Sharrani. He said, we need a 343 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: big we need a center. He wasn't specifically talking about Webby, 344 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: but we need we need a guy to help me 345 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: out because everybody's gonna be doing it just to stop 346 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: this guy. Because you came in, Alex, you came into 347 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: our studio today and he said that third quarter was ridiculous. 348 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: He's taking over the just the casual fan of this, 349 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: the people who know about basketball to talk it's happening. 350 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: I mean, next year, it seems like it's it's gonna 351 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: be there that third quarter. It was was kind of 352 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: embarrassing for the Indiana Pacers at the same time, if 353 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: they think about they flew across the ocean to have 354 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: such a poopy third quarter where they just weren't they 355 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: weren't playing. 356 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: That's a bad home loss. 357 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're technically home in this game. Why how I 358 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: don't understand, but it was. It was crazy to see 359 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: that forty five point quarter where Wenby was just going 360 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: off the last two to twenty five four points, three rebounds, 361 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: three block shots, and two assists in that two minutes 362 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: and twenty five second span. That's the thing that's taking 363 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: people's breath away, and it's going to be happening into 364 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs next year. I don't think there's any doubt 365 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: about that. 366 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 3: Can I give you guys a super hot take? 367 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? 368 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: Is Wemby already the best teammate Chris Paul's ever played with? 369 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 2: Ooh, lock it in. 370 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 4: You didn't like DeAndre? I'm talking about actual on court 371 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 4: because I was gonna say you don't like DeAndre Jordan. 372 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: Far just friend. 373 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: Blake Griffin had a top five MVP season as a 374 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: Clipper once upon a time. I don't remember how healthy 375 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 2: Chris Paul was that year. But Blake was awesome. But 376 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 2: as long as Chris Paul plays two more seasons with 377 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: the Spurs, Wemby guaranteed the hard. 378 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 3: Harden's also obviously up there. Yeah, but we're talking about 379 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 3: to but. 380 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 4: This is a different level, like where he's going to 381 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 4: get to. Yeah, no, I don't think it's close. 382 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 3: That's a good one, super hot take. I thought you 383 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 3: guys would push back. 384 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 2: No, Harden did win an m v P and finished 385 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 2: the top two in voting like four straight seasons as well. 386 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 2: But mister we is going to be the best player 387 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: in the league. 388 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he will be for David West guys, now, come on, man, 389 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 3: another pick and pop big He played with I. 390 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 2: Mean playing played with stuph Curry. Curry's good. Oh yeah 391 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: he did. 392 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 3: Honestly, Weby's better than what stuff was last year. 393 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: It's not just Alexander. This guy's played with a lot 394 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: of good players, played. 395 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 4: A lot of good guys. 396 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 2: I just want to name Chris Paul teamates through the 397 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 2: whole pod. I mean, he's almost twenty seasons and a 398 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 2: lot of teams. We could go on for a while, though, well, 399 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 2: it kind of got me thinking, is that guy from 400 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: Florida gonna get drafted. There's that Olivier Reu or whatever 401 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 2: he is. He's like seven, right, like, just draft him 402 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 2: and all he does is play against Wemby. 403 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 3: He's a well, he's a seven foot nine guy from Quebec. 404 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 3: What are they doing Quebec? Like, legit get him to 405 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 3: Florida right now. I don't know if he does. He 406 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 3: even played for Florida yet, but. 407 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 2: I don't know. He doesn't look to be as fluid 408 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 2: as a mover as Wemby, so I don't know what 409 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: his skills actually are. But he's taller. 410 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 3: I think you just the only thing is you have 411 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 3: to put like crazy size against him, like Zach Edy. 412 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: I think that's actually an okay, But like I mean, 413 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 3: that's I mean, come on, man, you're not just gonna 414 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 3: go find another guy who's seven. 415 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 2: Well. 416 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 4: I think every team should scour of the world. I 417 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 4: think every team should off a Wemby stopper, just someone 418 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 4: who's right seven to seven. 419 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 420 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 2: Better in the Western Conference when you play in three 421 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 2: or four times, Eastern Conference are just like waiting around? 422 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 2: What do I do? 423 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 1: The problem is they they take played it slowly here 424 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 1: and They've taught him to shoot from everywhere and drive 425 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: from everywhere. So your seven to nine guy ain't going 426 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: out to the three point line and garden. Well, man, so. 427 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 2: What can you do for you, Tas, Let's see what 428 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 2: he's got. 429 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: Manbe he didn't realize he was from Quebec. 430 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 2: Twin towers him and Edie for the Canadian national team. 431 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 4: Oh shoot, gold medal, car gold medal. Loading. 432 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe in the World Cup. Spurs and Place Pacers 433 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: do play again on Saturday.

Uh so, I don't know three o'clock, five o'clock. 436 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 2: Who knows lait for them? Though, you guys, Will and 437 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 2: Alex you went down to the fortress with Jerome. Last 438 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 2: night for Raptors Hawks, Scottie Barnes scored twenty five as 439 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 2: the Raptors beat the Hawks for just their second road 440 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 2: win of the season. However, they've won four of their 441 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: last five. We got another game in Atlanta on Saturday. 442 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 2: I'm thinking pizza party with the fellas. 443 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 4: People are starting to say that twenty twenty four to 444 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 4: twenty five Raptors might be a problem here. Yeah, don't 445 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 4: don't let them get on a three game win streak. 446 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 4: You know, front office might have to come down to 447 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 4: the court and get the tank going again. But yeah, 448 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 4: it's impressive. Win last night denied the fans from their 449 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 4: Chick fil A oh, you know, with their free throw 450 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 4: shooting shows at Yaka Peerle like you mentioned Scotty was huge. Yeah, 451 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 4: second win of the year ste Far Arena. Great experience 452 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 4: there too. The fans are super passionate, love love to play, 453 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 4: so yeah, all around great night. 454 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 3: Here's the thing with the Raptors, like you know, they're 455 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 3: they've been down bad the last two seasons because postgame 456 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 3: uh dark, Oreakovic was presented with the stat that, for 457 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 3: the first time under his watch, the Raptors have won 458 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: four of the last five games. Well, the first time 459 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: as a coach, and this has been a year and 460 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 3: a half. Obviously him coaching. 461 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 4: We're back. 462 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 3: They're saying we're back. 463 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,959 Speaker 1: No, I mean, realistically, we had a pizza party. They 464 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 1: went three in a row, but they lost the other two. 465 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: I guess, oh yeah, yeah, they were digesting the pizza 466 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 3: the two games. Man, it was tough. I think recently 467 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 3: it's just like their their vets. Who are there kind 468 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 3: of showcasing here, Kelly Olvi, Chris Bouchet, Bruce Brown. I've 469 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 3: been brought a message here from the front office if 470 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 3: he would be interested in these players. They are eminently available, 471 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 3: So call the Raptors. The number starts with four to 472 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 3: one six and it falls with seven more numbers. But yeah, 473 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 3: these three guys have actually do a really good job 474 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 3: of late and that's actually been like the major push 475 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 3: for them. I think what was great watching the game 476 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 3: yesterday from the Raptors' perspective was seeing Scotty like take 477 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 3: over in the fourth quarter. He had eleven of his 478 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 3: twenty five points in the fourth quarter. He had a 479 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 3: huge pull up three as well. Because it looked like 480 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 3: the Hawks, like obviously they were playing like they're just 481 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 3: playing pretty bad. You know, Jalen Johnson left the game 482 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 3: with injury. He seems like he maybe dissiplated his shoulder 483 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: or something. Yeah, but the Raptors were up the whole game. 484 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 3: But then eventually, you know, the Raps are not that good, 485 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 3: so like they're letting the Hawks get back into it, 486 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 3: and the Hawks hit some threes, they took the lead, 487 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 3: and it was like all the excitement was for the Hawks, 488 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: and all of a sudden, Raptors started actually started getting 489 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 3: some stops. Scotty was scoring to really slow down the 490 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 3: run by Atlanta and then yeah, yaka perl Man, one 491 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: handed free throw shooter goes to the foul line intentionally fouled, 492 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 3: obviously to extend the game. And he goes up there 493 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 3: and he goes two for two and there are both swishes. 494 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 3: It was crazy. 495 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 2: Are you allowed to do the ice in your vein 496 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 2: celebration after a made free throw? Just like one finger 497 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 2: shot quick injection here? Yeah, that was good stuff. Though. 498 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 2: What do you think about Scotty Barnes this season? He's 499 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 2: been banged up a little bit taking shots to the face, 500 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 2: but he's been pretty solid when he plays. 501 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 3: I think he has been pretty solid. I think you 502 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 3: know we're gonna turn into Alex here because he wrote 503 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: this huge feature about Scottie Barnes over at Toronto Life magazine, 504 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 3: and I know it took a lot of years off 505 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 3: his life to to put all the research into this. 506 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 3: The only thing I will say is post game, I 507 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 3: was able to talk to Scotty about the fact that 508 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: he's kind of building a bit of a go two shot. 509 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 3: The thing with Scotty is he's always been a guy 510 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 3: who does it all. Plays great defense, you know, it's 511 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 3: a really good passer, can switch different positions. All that 512 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 3: kind of stuff is great, But his scoring was sort 513 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 3: of the last thing for him to really get to. 514 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 3: And I think, you know, if you're gonna be a 515 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 3: great score, you're gonna need to have like a go 516 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 3: to move of some sort, you know. And I think 517 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 3: this year he's really made that mid range his own. 518 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 3: And I asked him about it after the game and 519 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 3: he said that he spent the last two summers lead 520 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 3: developing this mid range game. And you know you're getting 521 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 3: respect on the mid range when you get fouled a 522 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 3: lot on it too. Yeah, And that's what happened. The 523 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 3: Hawks kept fouling him. You know. DeAndre Hunter, who's pretty 524 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 3: big and strong, was still unable to sort of deny 525 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: Scotty from getting to the move and end up fouling 526 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 3: him a bunch in the fourth quarter. So I think 527 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 3: that's for him. He's been really proud of that, and 528 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 3: I think for the Raptors as a whole moving forward, 529 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 3: because like, yeah, of course everyone wants to tank for Cooper, 530 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 3: and I think the Raptors should do that, but they 531 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 3: still need Scotty long term because this is also one 532 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 3: of their cornerstones and he's showing you something new this season. 533 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, thanks for plugging that Toronto Life cover story. 534 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 4: Everyone should check it out. 535 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 3: You know, I didn't. 536 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 4: I was hoping to come here do this pod one 537 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 4: time without promoting anything, because I feel like that's all 538 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 4: I ever do on here. Really, Yeah, I didn't want 539 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 4: to come on here and be like, make sure you 540 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 4: check out you know, Prehistoric, a book that I wrote 541 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,680 Speaker 4: about the Raptors and also cover story before and also 542 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 4: available for freelance writing opportunities to hit me up at 543 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 4: info Steven. 544 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 3: Lebron dot com. Aren't you a professor now? 545 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 4: So, Scotty Barnes, Yeah, I think you got a podcast. 546 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 3: I think you teach a course. 547 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm teaching a course at UFT available for that 548 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,719 Speaker 4: as well. But yeah, Scotty Barnes, like Will mentioned, adding 549 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 4: to his offensive game and you know, having gotten to 550 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 4: spend a little bit of time with him for the story, 551 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 4: like he's making a very concerted effort this year of 552 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 4: just recognizing and leaning into the role that you know, 553 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 4: the team has asked of him of just being like 554 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 4: the number one guy, and like he's twenty three. I 555 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 4: think it's a lot to ask for a guy of 556 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 4: that age on a rebuilding team to like take on 557 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 4: a leadership role, especially with the roster that the way 558 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 4: that it is. But he hired a media coach to 559 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 4: try to just be better, like just little things like off 560 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: the court, Garrett Temple has been a huge help to 561 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 4: him in terms of just like teaching him how to 562 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 4: talk to teammates and like not show so much frustration 563 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 4: with his body language, which people have been critical of 564 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 4: the last few years. Right, So that combined with like 565 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 4: what he's doing on the court, I think everything Scotty 566 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 4: is bringing to the table this year has been really. 567 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: Encouraging Sky's growing up. Yeah, exactly, he's a max player 568 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: and you know, I've it's nice to hear some Toronto 569 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: pride here. 570 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 2: Obviously usually so hard on the Raptors on this show. 571 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, usually lose sixteen of seventeen games. 572 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: It's it's a point where, yes, on one hand, it'd 573 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: be nice if they lose games so they can become 574 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: the Cooper flag place. I mean, bring the flag north 575 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: of the border. And do it there, do it that way. 576 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: That being said, they're gonna win games here at the 577 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: end of the season, Yeah. 578 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, they will. If you I just wanted to say, 579 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 3: it's a lot of like watching the Wizards and Charlott 580 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 3: Hornets man. 581 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, well at the end, like you said, I mean, 582 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: Bruce Brown who's played a quarter of the games this season, 583 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: and Kelly Olnick, who's played like half the games this season. 584 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: They were awesome yesterday. I mean, there's the complimentary players 585 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: were important. Bruce at eighteen old, Nick at eleven Brusche 586 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: I don't know where that came from. That that's seventeen points, plush. 587 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: He has the occasional game. Excuse me, I just say 588 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: it's great to see Scotty as number one. It would 589 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: be as I've said one billion times, and I'm sure 590 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: you guys have to go over over and over and over. 591 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: They they hire, they they acquired all these guys to play, 592 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: So it would be great to see him play with quickly, 593 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: because that is the important part. Scotty as a number 594 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: one guy isn't always there in fourth quarters, isn't always 595 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 1: the guy to go to. He's growing. It would be 596 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: nice to see him play with Quickly, who they gave 597 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: that five year contract to, but it hasn't happened quite yet. 598 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: At the same time, it is good to see Scotty 599 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: grow and we saw it right here in front of 600 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: our face. The mid range Scotty is is that spot 601 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: where he is at the high post and he can 602 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: pass and he can drive. He feels more comfortable, and 603 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: I think he blocked that. DeAndre might Yeah, DeAndre Hunter 604 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: shot to put Atlanta ahead, but it was it was 605 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: deemed a misshot and then Yakaperto went to the free 606 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 1: throw line. I see he does everything. 607 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 3: He does everything. He played thirty nine minutes last night too, 608 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 3: you know. And I think that's the thing too. It's 609 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 3: like you want a young player to show that like 610 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 3: determination and compete and like just drag the team along 611 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,360 Speaker 3: because like, realistically, for a lot of young guys, you're 612 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 3: part of pretty terrible teams like last Kate Huntingham and 613 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,919 Speaker 3: this guy was trying to drag like just a slew 614 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 3: non shooting fifth overall picks and yeah, exactly, and you 615 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 3: have to like go out there and like learn how 616 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,479 Speaker 3: to compete every single night at that highest level and 617 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 3: basically beat the odds and recently, I think Scotty has 618 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 3: really really shown that determination. So I think on a 619 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 3: personality standpoint and also on the court, like we're pretty 620 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 3: really satisfied as Raptor fans. At the same time, though, 621 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 3: Kelly Olinick, Chris Bouchet, Bruce Brown, Daveon Mitchell potentially again 622 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 3: call the number four, one, six followed by seven on. 623 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 4: The number slipping flyers in people's box. 624 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 3: You know how big these audience is, you know rival 625 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 3: GMS man call us they're looking good these days. 626 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: I'm sure somebody can crack the code on what the 627 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 2: other seven digits are too. You know the computing power 628 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,439 Speaker 2: we have at our fingertips. Here, are all three of 629 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: the Vets going to be traded? Because I mean, like 630 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 2: we're saying they've been pretty important in this little stretch 631 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: here for the Raptors. Uh Bouche has had some amazing games. 632 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 2: Bruce Brown is just good to see him back on 633 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 2: the court, though. I do like the cowboy fits and 634 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 2: then Olenik like looks like a helpful guy. Does the 635 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 2: team fall apart then afterwards? Right, because we're saying the 636 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 2: Vets have been in here, that's the hope that taking 637 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 2: seasons are weird man. Right, you're like, every win you're like, awesome, 638 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: we won a game, and every loss you're like nice, 639 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 2: good for the standings. 640 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, the Raptors are trying to get 641 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 3: involved in a potential Jimmy Butler trade, which I have 642 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 3: made the soaking analogy before. But the Raptors are basically 643 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 3: trying to shake the bed in this situation. We're not 644 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 3: going to get the action, but we will shake the 645 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 3: bed and move salaries around. And so I think for 646 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 3: the Raptors, like, it's just depending on what those other 647 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 3: teams want to do. But yeah, I mean, I think 648 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 3: it's pretty clear they're going to move off some of 649 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 3: these guys. Bruce Brown is ninety percent healthy, by the way, 650 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 3: you know, just like people.

Another insane line. 682 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 2: For Nicola, jokicch last night thirty five points, twenty two rebounds, 683 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: seventeen assists and three steals, and a dominant win over 684 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,239 Speaker 2: the Kings, his fifth straight triple double. He did have 685 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: to play in the fourth quarter in this one, but 686 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: I checked and he had twenty four points and twenty 687 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 2: one rebounds fifteen assists after three quarters, so literally five 688 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 2: straight games that he's had a triple double and three quarters. 689 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 2: It's a two man race right now with Shay Gouges 690 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: and Alexander. This guy's playing as good as he has 691 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: all season, just had his career high fifty four. Which 692 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 2: way are you guys leaning? MVP? I know it's gonna 693 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 2: be Shaye because he's Canadian, but at least humor me 694 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 2: for the discussion. 695 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 4: No, I think Joki is making a case, Mabe. I 696 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 4: think nuggets is they're moving up the standings obviously, Okay, 697 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 4: see looks like they got that number one seed locked up, 698 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 4: so you know, if it comes down to that as 699 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,000 Speaker 4: the tiebreaker, Shay is gonna win. But jokis just putting 700 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 4: up numbers that are just like all worldly, like you've 701 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,959 Speaker 4: never seen these type of performances before. And I think 702 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 4: he gets points too for having less of a supporting cast. 703 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, that'll help. 704 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 4: But I think what hurts him is that he's won 705 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 4: it so many times so that that narrative drive is 706 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 4: not going to be there right like half half of 707 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 4: the MVB push aside from these players being great, is like, 708 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 4: what's the narrative push from the start at the end 709 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 4: of the season. Yeah, okay, see, and Shay's got that 710 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 4: on online lock Down right now, so it's probably gonna 711 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: be Shay. But I feel like Jokis should should get 712 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 4: some votes. Man. 713 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 3: The numbers on den on Man insane, ridiculous. It's the 714 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 3: efficiency portion, It's the fact that he's gone the best 715 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook that we've seen in what five years, Like 716 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 3: that's and it's it's ridiculous, like Aaron Gordon's coming off 717 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 3: the bench looking good because Russ is playing that good. Yeah, 718 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 3: that's and it's just like you know, we talked about 719 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 3: it on our show too. It's like, who's the worst 720 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 3: player that Nicola Jokic could rehab because he feels like 721 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 3: he makes every around him better, Like you could put 722 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 3: anybody around him. 723 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 4: It feels like the Pictrols to get Zion Williamson, that. 724 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 3: Would be exactly. It will be unfair, you know, But no, 725 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 3: I feel like you could even put like a Ben 726 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 3: Simmons on his team, and Ben Simons will get back 727 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 3: to look at all star level, like he's that good 728 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 3: at elevating his team. 729 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 4: When you watch this game back, guys aren't agreeing, But. 730 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 2: That's probably like the biggest type. 731 00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 3: We actually should get Ben Simmons to the Nuggets. He's 732 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 3: one of these athletic, do it all forwards that I 733 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 3: feel like they actually thrive with. But yeah, I mean, 734 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 3: I think, I mean, look, I'm obviously going to vote 735 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 3: for share. I mean, the record I think is the 736 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 3: huge separator here when anything else. His aura is also 737 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 3: a huge separator. You don't see TikTok reels of Yokich 738 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 3: just aura, man, But you see Jalen Williams, the Asian 739 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 3: one being like, oh, he said, his life is a whatever. 740 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 4: Like, hey, we're giving votes to the TikTok views. Now 741 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 4: we're doing m v P based on TikTok number of impressions. 742 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 4: What happened to the NBA that I love? 743 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,959 Speaker 2: He's got aura? Hey, man, it's sixty six quarter from 744 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 2: Yokic last night to the third quarter he said afterwards, 745 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 2: He's like, I know he's in as soon as I 746 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: shot it. 747 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: No reaction, just walked off. Yeah, three quarter shot, no reaction. 748 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. 749 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 4: Who is cooler, Shae or Yokich because they were both 750 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 4: two like really cool dudes. 751 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 3: Really want to have the aura off. 752 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:52,719 Speaker 2: You just didn't want to know. 753 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 4: Apparently this is what the NBA is about now these days. 754 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 4: Lean in, Yeah, who's got who's your definition of? 755 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: I'm yeah, Tim, Tim Duncan cool because that's what is 756 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: pulling off right now. He got that Tim Duncan level. 757 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, which is cool. 758 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: I Tim Duncan Grew's hair after he retired. 759 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 2: He's getting cooler. 760 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 3: He's getting cool. 761 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 2: Tim Duncan he saved as cool for after he retired. 762 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 2: I don't know. She's probably cooler, but cooler. She is 763 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: definitely cooler, though he did lose a notable competition to 764 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell I saw on the internet once upon a 765 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 2: time from talking. 766 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 3: Or Yeah, we're doing everything on this show today. 767 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: We're having fun. Man. We've been trying to schedule a 768 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 2: podcast together and then finally happens on a Friday. We 769 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 2: got you locked in here in the Classic Factory, putting 770 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 2: in a double shift on back to back days. We're 771 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: going nuts, literally going nuts out here. But Yo, Kitch, 772 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,719 Speaker 2: like Mike Malone said it, he's like you saw him 773 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: win the finals MVP. He's won three finals in four 774 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 2: or three MVPs in four years, and this is the 775 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 2: best he's ever played. Yes, so he probably will not 776 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 2: win it because of a voter fatigue, but he's still 777 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 2: the best guy in the league. And yeah, the Nuggets 778 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: are alive as a title contender. I agree with your test. 779 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah the problem, Yeah, the Nuggets are alive because you 780 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: were mentioning like the Ben Simmons type of guys, the 781 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 1: guys who will cut endlessly, and Jokic is just so 782 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: difficult to guard his passes and his shots because he's 783 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,959 Speaker 1: become so much better at shooting a three. I mean, 784 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: you've got bodies out there trying to take away the three. 785 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: And like Christian Brown last night, a beautiful cut twice 786 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: from Jokic, got the great got the great pass from 787 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: the high post, from the low post when Jokicic was there. 788 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: If you're cutting like that, as Russell Westbrook is cutting 789 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: like that, and you've got Jamal Murray, he's playing really, 790 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: really well, plus Michael Porter Junior. Their starting lineup is incredible. 791 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: And with Aaron Gordon going to the bench to give 792 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: the non Jokic minutes some life, that's all it takes. 793 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: And Aaron Gordon is willing to sacrifice himself. And he 794 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: said to Michael Malone, even when I'm completely entirely healthy, 795 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: because he's under a minute restriction right now, he said, 796 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: I don't mind coming off the bench, and he is. 797 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: You know, when he was in Orlando, he was that 798 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: number one guy, had never never made it that far. 799 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: But as a second unit number one guy, he's fantastic 800 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: and he's setting everybody up. So they are for real. 801 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: Uh And I I do think the problem with and 802 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: the argument against Shay winning is that they are losing 803 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: some games. I mean they lost last night to the 804 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks for the third time this season, which is 805 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: real bonkers. Yeah, they've lost eight games, three of them 806 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: have been to Dallas. And speaking of balls, in that game, 807 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: there was a complete ball slap by Lou Dort. Gave 808 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 1: it to Daniel Gafford and got and got ejected for it. 809 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: It was a cup check, open hand. Yeah, it was 810 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: a slap. 811 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 4: Dogs had himself a little reputation with somebody Sam. 812 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 3: This guy is Sam Damsey Man. He said, this one's 813 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 3: from my gaffer on the nuts. It's crazy. 814 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was Gamy. 815 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,439 Speaker 4: Did you prepice they're sick. 816 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 3: I'm just running off five hours of sleep.

They beat the Thunder third time this season. 825 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 2: The Bucks beat the Heat by thirty even though they 826 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: landed in Milwaukee less than three hours before tip off, 827 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 2: embarrassing one for the Heat. The Warrior smoked the Bulls. 828 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 2: Five guys off the bench for the Dubs scored in 829 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 2: double digits, including twenty from Quentin Post. 830 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: Yo. 831 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,360 Speaker 2: Man looks like a grown baby. 832 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,720 Speaker 3: He is the best player that we found out about. 833 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 3: Just this week.

The Lakers blew out the Celtics, 846 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 2: Lebron threw down some big dunks, he a d and 847 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves Osbourne twenty or more, and the Clippers beat 848 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 2: the Wizards thanks to a triple double from James Harden. 849 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: We got any more thoughts on any of these games? 850 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 2: Anybody concerned about the Celtics, the Lakers. They're struggling right now. 851 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 3: I don't know what the Celtics, man, They barely got 852 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 3: by the They need ot to get by the Clippers, 853 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 3: who rested their big three. I'm putting norm in that 854 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 3: big three, you know, yeah, twenty nineteen champions forever, you know? 855 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, what's going on with the Celtics? 856 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 2: Man? 857 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:39,919 Speaker 4: Just board man won a championship last year? A little 858 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 4: mid season. Can't go for the number one seed because 859 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 4: the Cavs kind of pulled ahead Okay, they'll be fine. Yeah, 860 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 4: I'm not worried about the Celtics. 861 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 3: Okay, Jalen Brown has been struggling recently. 862 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: Man, he's he's definitely taking a downturn this season. I 863 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,760 Speaker 2: heard Bill Simmons today say he thinks that, uh, Jalen 864 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 2: Brown got you jacked, like his muscles. Maybe it looks 865 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 2: a little stiffer. I don't know. I'm not worried about 866 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 2: the shooting part of it, like eventually they'll shoot better. 867 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 2: They're all having poor shooting, a poor shooting month. I 868 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 2: think the other side to be concerned about is the defense, 869 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 2: Like they're giving up a ton of ports hard, they're 870 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: not playing hard. I agree, but it's like, I think 871 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 2: they're ten and nine in their last nineteen so that's 872 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 2: a quarter of the season that they've been a five 873 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: hundred team. That's not impressive. They're not quite as good 874 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 2: as they were last season. And now it's funny to 875 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 2: hear people blaming the Olympics the Holiday Thelypics having such 876 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 2: poor seasons because you know, they played one hundred games 877 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 2: last year going to the finals. Then they went straight 878 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 2: into the Olympics where they played a whole bunch of minutes. Obviously, 879 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:40,240 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum did not, Jamley Brown didn't get an invite. 880 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 2: So Man, Celtics fans are upset about this Olympics. 881 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 3: No, I want to see the Celtics lose more because 882 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 3: I just I know jo Maanzula is going to do 883 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 3: something crazy, like real soon he's gonna sacrifice a good 884 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,879 Speaker 3: or something like. It's going to be like, yeah, he's 885 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 3: he's on that type of time. Yeah, I just know 886 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 3: he's a ticking time on that man. 887 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. The defense is that they worry. Well, that's what 888 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: championship teams do. They take a little Well, they started 889 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: so well twenty and five, and they've hit this this 890 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: break here three games and four nights. I guess that's 891 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: a thing because the Lakers were just running it down 892 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 1: their throats to see the Lakers win the fast break points. Yeah, 893 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: sixteen to five, everybody splashing threes. Austin three, Austin threes. 894 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: I like to call him Austin threes now for some reason, 895 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 1: fourth threes from him, my man gave Vincent hit four 896 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 1: threes as well. 897 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 4: Seven sleep on seven. Lakers fans call him seven. 898 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: Why. 899 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,000 Speaker 4: I think they were just slandering him a little bit too. 900 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 4: Much because after he signed the contract, he was terrible 901 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 4: last year number. Yeah, so they couldn't even say his 902 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 4: name anymore. 903 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, the Lakers, and as I said, Anthony Davis 904 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: told Scham's we need center. He really wants somebody else 905 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: to guard Yokic. He wants he wants to chill out 906 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,439 Speaker 1: a little bit for ten to twelve minutes a game. 907 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 1: But Dwight Howard ain't coming back. I don't know who 908 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 1: it's going to be, but it sure seems like they 909 00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: are literally looking for any setter. 910 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 2: Guys. The censor's going to be delivered. 911 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: Hey, Laker. 912 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 2: They've been talking about him since the summer. Remember there 913 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: was a rumor that Lebron was going to take a 914 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 2: pay cut so that they could afford yonas Valanciunis. Obviously 915 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 2: didn't happen. He's got like a ten million dollar deal. 916 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 2: They'll be able to find somebody or a salary to 917 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,280 Speaker 2: match that. I think he is locked into being a Laker, 918 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 2: And I've seen some of the photo shops. It does 919 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: not look great in purple or yellow. But he'll be 920 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 2: a helpful guy. 921 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, not that helpful. He's too slow. That's the problem. 922 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 1: It's it's slowest. Valan judices. It ain't gonna slowness. 923 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,760 Speaker 2: Valenti and Austin threeves on the court together. 924 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 5: Pretty good, y'all don't want Austin, You know, you guys 925 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 5: don't want Kelly oldeck Man.

It wasn't super sexy, 929 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: but it was just from the corner drive in. It's 930 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: just it was boring. But it's boring, so. 931 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 4: It's always nice when Kawi is back. Man. 932 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's actually Lokia clippers stand. 933 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 4: Oh, let's get to the Let's get to these lots 934 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,280 Speaker 4: of clippers, clippers, lots of clippers. Talk are coming. 935 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 2: The other question I had for you, I mentioned the 936 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 2: Bucks beat the heat by thirty even though Milwaukee was 937 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 2: stranded in New Orleans for three days. They don't think 938 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 2: they practiced at all. You think the Jimmy situation is 939 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 2: kind of like weighing on the heat. They don't feel 940 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 2: like they're fired up to be playing together. Yeah, now 941 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: since he came back, I think it got suspended again. 942 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 4: I think it's weighing on them, and also like they're 943 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 4: not They're just not a really good team. If you 944 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 4: look at that roster, that's a five hundred team, right, 945 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 4: Like there's some good individual players on there. But yeah, 946 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 4: I think I think guys are just waiting for that 947 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 4: trade to happen. And yeah, hopefully that gets done soon 948 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 4: because I think we're all waiting for Jimmy to just 949 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 4: land in Phoenix and we can all move on. 950 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 3: Only good thing is right now he is. He's man 951 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 3: looking like Wemby Man. He really did kind of go 952 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 3: to bar Bar with Web before it was kind of crazy, 953 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:55,879 Speaker 3: but now he was like the breakout guy from them 954 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 3: and in Summer. 955 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 4: Lease, I was so impressed with him as some of them. 956 00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,240 Speaker 4: Remember we were watching them together. 957 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 3: I think the Heat won THEUMM League championship or something. Hey, 958 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 3: who remember night Man did make a trophy for this man. 959 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 4: My thing is like Miami pow Raley's not gonna gonna rebuild, 960 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 4: even though I think he called himself washed a few 961 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 4: years a few weeks ago. 962 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe he's seventy nine years old. He doesn't want 963 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 3: to rebuild, but rebuild, but they should. 964 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 4: I mean, the proper thing to do is like they 965 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 4: should just go ahead and just strip this roster down. Like, 966 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 4: if you're gonna trade Jimmy C, what else you can 967 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 4: get for Tyler Hero for Bam too.

They're like, yo, 988 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,840 Speaker 3: we're out of ideas. You got a day, Cuddy. It's like, 989 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,799 Speaker 3: all right, it's not it's not cool anymore. Let's just 990 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 3: move it on. He like drove his car through her 991 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 3: house one time. It's not good again as a problematic man. 992 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: Right there? 993 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 3: Man, Yeah, who k new drug addicts were problematic? So chill, 994 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 3: he just looks so chill. 995 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, twenty one points, five rebounds, four assists 996 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 2: this season for Brandon Miller. Unfortunately, he's only played twenty 997 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,360 Speaker 2: seven games, so that's a bummer. Kind of very similar 998 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 2: to like LaMelo Ball. He hasn't been able to. 999 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:37,399 Speaker 1: Stay on the corner. 1000 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's been a little bit better this season, but 1001 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 2: missed a big chunk of time last year. So they 1002 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: didn't really get to play together. They won't we get 1003 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 2: to play together again, So just a bummer for them. 1004 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 2: I mean, the Hornets aren't doing much this season, but 1005 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 2: you would like to see your two stars actually get 1006 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 2: to play. 1007 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, simple as that. And I did enjoy the Brandon 1008 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: Miller experience this season when he was playing. 1009 00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 2: Had a big dunk on the very first night of 1010 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 2: the season, if I remember right, the first full night 1011 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,320 Speaker 2: of the season, beautiful Wednesday. 1012 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: It was like it was like him and Labella were 1013 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 1: basically shooting every shot on that when those two played together. 1014 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 2: I think they both take like ten plus threes per 1015 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:13,799 Speaker 2: game or something like that. 1016 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 3: Ye, yep, I mean the most fun job would be 1017 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 3: to be the Hornets head coach because no one listens 1018 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 3: to you at all, Like you can do nothing. They're 1019 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 3: just gonna play the same way, no matter what you 1020 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 3: can do, all the preparations you want overnight or whatever, 1021 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 3: you just they're gonna play the same way. 1022 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 2: Man. 1023 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 3: And also Todd Gibson's there somehow. 1024 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:31,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, you you brought up when I was. 1025 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 2: Both legends legend Gibson favorite guy. 1026 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: When I when I was trying to big up the 1027 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: Raptors a little bit, you you mentioned the Hornets and 1028 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: Wizards in that same breath. The Raptors would kill those teams, right. 1029 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 3: I mean they're playing right now with Bruce Brown the 1030 00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:59,439 Speaker 3: way he is climbing four. No, yeah, absolutely, yeah, for sure. 1031 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 3: All the we have lost to the Charlotte Hornet's the. 1032 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 4: One that a reaffirmation of the I'll talk about a 1033 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:12,839 Speaker 4: fully motivated Wizards team though with Kyle Kuzma, Jordan Pool 1034 00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 4: JV is still on the team or if they trade 1035 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,760 Speaker 4: JV the Lakers, seven is probably coming back. Gave Vincent. 1036 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 4: Put Vincent and pool backcourt. 1037 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 3: Alex like, my face looks like Kaitlyn Cooper and my 1038 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:25,439 Speaker 3: game looks like Kaitlyn forgot I forgot about it. 1039 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 4: Oh man, I don't know.

We're gonna start with a doozy nominee one, 1059 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:39,280 Speaker 1: Malik Monk a beautiful break reverse dunk. Unfortunately it bounced 1060 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,560 Speaker 1: off his head and back through the rim. It's incredible. 1061 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 1: It's so prank, it's so pretty's on the break and 1062 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 1: it just bounces off his head goes back through the room. 1063 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 1: He really had no idea that it happened, because afterwards 1064 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 1: he went and asked, dearon Fox. If you're watching on YouTube, 1065 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: you're gonna see the conversation. He's like, what happened? And 1066 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: the deer Fox says, right off your had, dude. So 1067 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 1: that's nominee number one. I mean, that was just that 1068 00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 1: was incredible. 1069 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 2: Did they count the points? 1070 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 3: No, No, that doesn't count. I think you had to 1071 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 3: clear the whole mesh or something exactly. 1072 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, didn't that happened to uh, you know, once upon 1073 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 2: a time James Harden I think he was Trece at 1074 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 2: the time, but he was playing for the Rockets. 1075 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:16,799 Speaker 3: That's right. 1076 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 2: I took three years of Spanish in high school. That's 1077 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 2: the third time looped back around and came back out, 1078 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 2: and they didn't count it. The Rockets ended up like 1079 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 2: blowing a huge lead and losing it, and I was 1080 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 2: like the momentum play. But yeah, this happens one I 1081 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 2: guess probably once every ten years, and it's always hilarious. 1082 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 3: It was a great dunk though I can't even lie. Also, 1083 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 3: if you if you look in the background on the 1084 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,399 Speaker 3: Warriors bench, that is Quenton Post, the tall Dutch guy. 1085 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1086 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, we have a first Dutch player, man, I guess 1087 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 3: not a first Dutch player.

So that's a win 1226 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 2: for us. Tell us about tonight's picking payoff, Testy. 1227 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 1: Portland going to Chicago to Charlotte. They're staying, uh, staying 1228 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,120 Speaker 1: around the South here. They're going from Orlando where they 1229 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:03,720 Speaker 1: just almost the Orlando Magic. Orlando had seventy nine points. 1230 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 1: The Warriors bench and Quinton Post had more points than 1231 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,240 Speaker 1: the Orlando Magic last night, eighty three to seventy nine. 1232 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 1: But Portland's gonna Are they gonna be able to keep 1233 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: this up in Charlotte where Charlotte's favored by four and 1234 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 1: a half points. The three of you say, Nah, Skeets, 1235 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 1: Trey and Esh are taking Charlotte to win by five 1236 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:26,960 Speaker 1: or more. I watched Portland. I watched them force Paulo 1237 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 1: bancro into one A fourteen game with just that gang 1238 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: defense around him. So I'm comfortable taking Portland where we 1239 00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,439 Speaker 1: got a bit of a race here, it's a three 1240 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,799 Speaker 1: game difference between Skeets and esh at the end of January. Here, 1241 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 1: not a great night for NBA games In all honesty, 1242 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 1: I had to pick this one where the Cavs at 1243 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: Philly with no Joel Embiid, who are nine and a 1244 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: half point dogs at home. That's a big line. Yeah, 1245 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 1: that's the juicy line for a Philly team, or the 1246 00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:58,279 Speaker 1: Pelicans going to Memphis, which should be a good one 1247 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 1: at the Grizzles are eleven and a half point favorites 1248 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:02,720 Speaker 1: in that one. 1249 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:06,240 Speaker 2: So really, yeah, they're playing okay right now? Exactly. 1250 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1251 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you never know who's actually going 1252 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 2: to play for him. 1253 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 1: I guess not. 1254 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,040 Speaker 2: They're playing well. Portland's actually playing pretty well. I guess 1255 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 2: they were on a back to back last night. But 1256 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 2: four and a half seems like a kind of a 1257 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,000 Speaker 2: big line. Which way would you guys lay in Portland? 1258 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 2: Not that it matters, but if you do lose this one, 1259 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 2: if you both get it wrong, you have to do 1260 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 2: the second show we do here outside. 1261 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 3: So oh, another shift of the factory. 1262 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 4: Let's rub I'm all ride with you know, Jeremy Grant 1263 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 4: and my Portland trail Blazers. 1264 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:29,880 Speaker 3: There we go. 1265 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy mentioning names that could be dealt in 1266 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:37,080 Speaker 1: the next thirteen days.
