Speaker 1: Well, well, well, the league announced the all star starters.
Speaker 1: Is that time already? The Bucks and Pacers are on
Speaker 1: the rise. We may have a flurry of deadline action
Speaker 1: and more to discuss with actor and comedian Jackies Neil,
Speaker 1: who you know from maybe The Daily Ziece. He also
Speaker 1: might know him from Grand Crew comedian Flash, the live
Speaker 1: show that everybody should be attending on the regular in

Speaker 6: Secure the Suffox or NBA Champions over the couple to.
Speaker 1: What's up?
Speaker 4: Hello? Three?
Speaker 5: I'm doing that yogish three from the other from the
Speaker 5: other side of the court, and I'm airballing.
Speaker 1: That was that was annoying when he did that. Sometimes
Speaker 1: I just annoyed when he can like do stuff that.
Speaker 5: And you know what, you know what was even more
Speaker 5: annoying about it too, is that like he had like
Speaker 5: a perfect flicker of the wrist too. It wasn't just
Speaker 5: like it wasn't just like a throw. It was truly
Speaker 5: like he shot the basketball. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: It was one of those things that's like, oh, you
Speaker 1: would have been the best darts player in the world
Speaker 1: if you decided to crazy. Anyways, Ja Keith, We're thrilled
Speaker 1: to Jack.
Speaker 4: I'm thrilled to be here.
Speaker 1: So last week we chose as our game of the
Speaker 1: week the Rockets versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Have you heard
Speaker 1: of these two teams.
Speaker 5: I've heard of Rockets, I've heard they go on into space. Right,
Speaker 5: I don't know what a Cavalier is, Rockets, Calves. I
Speaker 5: do know the teams. I didn't know about the game.
Speaker 1: It is amazing, like how strange a name can be,
Speaker 1: and it's just like part of ours again, like you
Speaker 1: just name a team. I feel like the only team
Speaker 1: that has resisted this is like the Wizards still doesn't
Speaker 1: feel right for some reason. Everything else it's just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's thunderous. You know, you could give a team, call
Speaker 1: a team the Cavaliers, and I'm sure at the time
Speaker 1: people are like what And now it's just like, yeah,
Speaker 1: the Calves, man.
Speaker 4: The Calves. Yeah, we'll showing it up.
Speaker 5: I know I know we you know, not not speaking
Speaker 5: on gun violence or anything, but let them be bullets.
Speaker 4: Bro.
Speaker 3: What I'm saying, bring back the old school Ridgers.
Speaker 1: You know, the Rockets went into Cleveland came away with
Speaker 1: a one point thirty five one victory. I think it
Speaker 1: was there, like the Cavs fourth loss in a row.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're on a on a little side here, they're
Speaker 5: little scared, which will happen?
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, well allow it, well allow it.
Speaker 5: It's amazing because, like you know, before this little skined,
Speaker 5: they were uh like thirty six and four or something
Speaker 5: something crazy like that, thirty five and for an amazing
Speaker 5: record going into the All Star break. And you know,
Speaker 5: when you have records like that going into the All
Speaker 5: Star Break, you start to like think about, Okay, where
Speaker 5: are you gonna stack up against like the top teams
Speaker 5: in history, the Warriors thirty three and seventy three and nine,
Speaker 5: the Bulls seventy two and tens, or even the myriad
Speaker 5: of sixty nine and thirteen teams, And like.
Speaker 4: When teams are here, ninety plus.
Speaker 5: Percent of them have stretches like this, so you realize
Speaker 5: how hard it is to do what those teams did
Speaker 5: during the season is so crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were on pace to win seventy games, and
Speaker 1: I would like count it counted. That's just in the math. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's money in the bank.
Speaker 5: And now I truly would not be surprised if they
Speaker 5: lost fifteen to twenty games this year. I think they'll
Speaker 5: still be like number one seed, but like, yeah, they
Speaker 5: gonna lose, they gonna lose a few months.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just want them to stay away ahead of Boston.
Speaker 1: That's all I ask of you. Cleveland.
Speaker 3: There's still six games up in the lost calm, so
Speaker 3: that's goode.
Speaker 1: And Boston's been on a bit of a slide of
Speaker 1: their own. They lost to the Lakers. You know, Jalen
Speaker 1: Brown is kind of having a down year right now.
Speaker 1: Up to this point, he's not He's not playing quite
Speaker 1: as well as he did last season. So it's check low. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we won't. We won't dig into it too much, although
Speaker 1: I do have an overall theory about that. I want
Speaker 1: to get you guys thoughts on about who is overperforming
Speaker 1: and underperforming this season. But first I do want to
Speaker 1: talk about this game. The Rockets won by six, swear
Speaker 1: it not for a last second layup. So I mean
Speaker 1: from Garland it was. You know, he made a layup
Speaker 1: to cut it from six to four, which made it
Speaker 1: seem closer than it was. But my revelation from watching
Speaker 1: this game is that amen Thompson. Am I getting that?
Speaker 1: It's amen?
Speaker 3: Say it, but to say it both ways and you
Speaker 3: covered your bases?
Speaker 4: Amen?
Speaker 1: Yeah, an say amen Amen Thompson put up a triple
Speaker 1: double and is just like he had just some blocks
Speaker 1: and like put back dunks. That the speed with which
Speaker 1: he gets off the ground like he obviously has boosties.
Speaker 1: That is what this podcast is for as to tell
Speaker 1: people when somebody has boosties. But also just like the
Speaker 1: speed he jumps at just like he looks like he's
Speaker 1: just standing there and then he his head is at
Speaker 1: the rim a split second later. Is it's wild? He
Speaker 1: is incredible and such are defender and so good around
Speaker 1: the rim. He's the truth. He's going to be I
Speaker 1: don't know like what he's going to be, but he's
Speaker 1: gonna be somebody who is fun to watch for a
Speaker 1: long long time. It feels like what year is he?
Speaker 2: Again?
Speaker 5: Is this is he's not a rookie right? No, he's
Speaker 5: the second year yeah, second year player?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Man, Like look, man, I I Am.
Speaker 5: It's so weird because you know, we are old, so
Speaker 5: we've had we are now to the place where we've
Speaker 5: been through many generations. You know, I grew up in
Speaker 5: the Jordan era. Some of us may probably grew up
Speaker 5: in like the Magic and Bird era. First in the
Speaker 5: Jordan era, but we are around that time frame. And
Speaker 5: then we had like the Kobe the Tim duncan you
Speaker 5: know that era which kind of coincided coincided with the
Speaker 5: Lebron era, although he's been playing for seventy eight years.
Speaker 4: Been in so many eras.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but now and then like the era throughout most
Speaker 5: of our adulthood, which is or which are the people
Speaker 5: that kind of share ages with, which is like the
Speaker 5: Steph Curry's, the Kd's, you know, the Lebron's and all
Speaker 5: these players like they are they are on their way out,
Speaker 5: like they you know, in five years most of them
Speaker 5: will not be playing, except for Lebron James.
Speaker 4: But like like that, now he's gonna he's gonna outplay
Speaker 4: them all.
Speaker 3: He's gonna outplay one of his competitors' sons.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and then but still, but the crazy thing is
Speaker 7: you still have a generation or era under that you
Speaker 7: got the ganisus. You got the Ads, you got the
Speaker 7: I mean the Cats, the Anthony Edwards, you know, wherever
Speaker 7: he stands.
Speaker 4: But but like.
Speaker 5: These past like two three years, this new like rookie sophomore,
Speaker 5: junior class. It's like showing like the NBA is gonna
Speaker 5: be in such crazy athletic, lanky hands the next like
Speaker 5: ten fifteen years. It's like really crazy. Man, I can't
Speaker 5: even imagine what we're gonna be talking about and seeing
Speaker 5: from some of these players, like five years from now.
Speaker 5: It's like gonna be nuts.
Speaker 1: It's so fun. There's so many good young players. It's yeah.
Speaker 1: The So we always talk about the shot making we
Speaker 1: think is important in basketball, and it's uh we we
Speaker 1: think it's good in the NBA. These guys are good.
Speaker 1: It makes good shots.
Speaker 5: I think, uh, I think the side to side movement
Speaker 5: is the most important.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's just fundamental, fundamental, fundamental, back and forth, side
Speaker 1: to side. All right. So here's my big theory. By
Speaker 1: the way, like de Berry said, Cleveland still is a
Speaker 1: six game lead in the lost column. That's that's all
Speaker 1: all we need from you, Cleveland. Just keep it right there,
Speaker 1: keep it right there. So while watching this game, they
Speaker 1: were talking about how Houston is not shooting that many
Speaker 1: threes this season. Probably the team that is most outperforming.
Speaker 1: They're expected win total heading into the season. Is there
Speaker 1: a team that is outperforming and like what people expect
Speaker 1: could from them more than Houston than Houston?
Speaker 4: Oh, okay, I mean Cleveland.
Speaker 1: Cleveland would be the other Yeah Cleveland. Yeah, yeah, for
Speaker 1: sure good but like, yeah, not this good.
Speaker 4: Not really, man. I mean like we thought, okay see
Speaker 4: would be here because.
Speaker 1: It would be good. We didn't know they'd be this good.
Speaker 1: And they're on my list of outperforming.
Speaker 5: Also, yeah, I guess I thought they would be like
Speaker 5: top three in the West, top.
Speaker 1: Three in the West, but they're on a they're still
Speaker 1: on a like historic pace, like they they.
Speaker 4: Have the best record in the league right now. Yeah,
Speaker 4: because I think.
Speaker 1: I think they would be like close to seventy wins
Speaker 1: if they kept up this pace, which I don't expect
Speaker 1: them to. But it's just wild that they're there at all. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like I thought they you know, everybody was picking them
Speaker 1: in the West and I was like, that's like, that's right,
Speaker 1: But it also felt like it was the sexy pick
Speaker 1: because like they picked up Crusoe and Hartenstein and like
Speaker 1: the were like both people that like, you know, it
Speaker 1: was like a smart thing to like those guys. You know,
Speaker 1: it was like, oh, those guys are defensively they do
Speaker 1: things that like people don't respect. So I thought maybe though, okay,
Speaker 1: see love was like maybe a little bit overblown. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't expect it to go up this
Speaker 1: many spots.
Speaker 4: But yeah.
Speaker 1: So my thesis that I think Jabbari's gonna tell me
Speaker 1: I'm wrong about is that the moneyball smart like advantage
Speaker 1: for a number of years has been threes are worth
Speaker 1: more than twos. They're worth so much more than twos
Speaker 1: that the team that shoots the most threes has like
Speaker 1: a mathematical advantage. Uh. And you know, you can see
Speaker 1: it by the fact that the number of threes the
Speaker 1: teams are taken still like keeps going up year over year. However,
Speaker 1: when you look at the teams that are over performing
Speaker 1: expectations this year, other than Cleveland, who is still like
Speaker 1: kind of toward I think they're fifth and overall three
Speaker 1: point attempts, Boston's number one, But I'd say Boston is
Speaker 1: actually underperforming. They're expected win total. Lakers are overperforming they're
Speaker 1: expected win total. I think heading in, I don't think
Speaker 1: you know, at least the smart basketball people that I
Speaker 1: read and look at, I think had them either in
Speaker 1: the play in category or below. Like I think a
Speaker 1: lot of people.
Speaker 8: They're still time and they're still they will end between
Speaker 8: seven and ten.
Speaker 1: So they're currently last in the league in three point attempts.
Speaker 1: Clippers over performing expectations. They're twenty seventh in the league. Okay,
Speaker 1: see overperforming. They're twelfth in the league. But they're doing
Speaker 1: it with an MVP performance whose main weapon is a
Speaker 1: mid range game like that. You know, Shay is a
Speaker 1: mid range assassin, like that is when they need a bucket,
Speaker 1: he's getting to the rim or getting into you know,
Speaker 1: the paint, or just mid range and scoring. Like So, yeah,
Speaker 1: Nick's probably about where, like I think a lot of
Speaker 1: people had them being good, but they're maybe a little
Speaker 1: bit over expectations. They're twenty fifth in three point attempts.
Speaker 1: Detroit overperforming they're nineteenth. So I'm just wondering, is the
Speaker 1: three day not Not Like I'm not going to go
Speaker 1: full ESPN talking ahead and be like the three is
Speaker 1: dead because obviously it's not. Boston still towards the top
Speaker 1: of the league. They're shooting the most threes any team
Speaker 1: has ever shot. But is there some strategic you know
Speaker 1: move whether it be just like how people are defending
Speaker 1: the three, like you know, people are overly selling out
Speaker 1: to you know, close out on threes or something that
Speaker 1: the smart teams are taking advantage of, the smart coaches
Speaker 1: are taking advantage of. That's that's my question.
Speaker 5: I think, Uh, I think we're an interesting part of
Speaker 5: the NBA right NBA, like you know, culture right now.
Speaker 5: And I think with the emergence of the dominance of
Speaker 5: players like Jokic, the expected dominance that we're gonna see
Speaker 5: from players like Wimby and like a lot of these
Speaker 5: players who can shoot the three, who can stretch the floor,
Speaker 5: but they are playing you know, from the paint on
Speaker 5: a lot more than like, you know, the twenty fourteen
Speaker 5: through twenty twenty two teams, you know. So I think
Speaker 5: like because of that, you are seeing that like nope,
Speaker 5: you are seeing that, like not many teams can do
Speaker 5: what the Warriors did because not many shooters are Steph
Speaker 5: Curry right and like and even though the three is
Speaker 5: king and this that or the other, like the only
Speaker 5: team that is truly one. I know Boston last year
Speaker 5: one and they were a heavy three point shooting team,
Speaker 5: but like, they did not win that series because they
Speaker 5: were shooting a lot of threes. They won that series
Speaker 5: because they just overpowered the team that they were playing
Speaker 5: and just like had better players.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it works better when it's a weapon and not
Speaker 1: an identity.
Speaker 4: And not an identity.
Speaker 5: So not many teams have the identity that led to
Speaker 5: championships like the Warriors had, like and so I think
Speaker 5: a lot of teams are seeing that, Okay, yes, the
Speaker 5: three is not an identity anymore.
Speaker 4: It's a weapon.
Speaker 5: I don't think it's going away. I think it's a
Speaker 5: weapon that can work. But I think, like with all
Speaker 5: these players who are coming in who are dominating from
Speaker 5: you know, inside the three point line a lot more,
Speaker 5: you're starting to get to a point where it's like,
Speaker 5: you know, people were like, oh man, Shaq couldn't play
Speaker 5: in today's league, and I was like, yo, yes he could.
Speaker 4: If you put them on the court. Y'all ain't shooting
Speaker 4: threes no more because.
Speaker 5: You have to go guard, you have to feed, and
Speaker 5: you're starting to see like, oh man, like the weapons
Speaker 5: that we have probably are better suited not just keeping
Speaker 5: them posted out to the three point line. And also,
Speaker 5: you know, I wouldn't be surprised if, you know, if
Speaker 5: talk around the NBA is like, ain't nobody watching as
Speaker 5: much as they used to, and maybe like having one
Speaker 5: hundred and thirty to one hundred and twenty six scores
Speaker 5: isn't as fun take on a consistent basis. And so
Speaker 5: because of that, you're also just seeing more defense, more
Speaker 5: you know, in the paint play and things like that.
Speaker 4: So I think it's only good for the league.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you guys both know you may make
Speaker 2: excellent points, and now Jack, I'm not going to disagree.
Speaker 3: In fact, I agree wholeheartedly.
Speaker 2: The reality is this we you know, it has been
Speaker 2: a copycat league.
Speaker 3: For a long time.
Speaker 2: So to most to Jaquiz's point, from twenty fourteen to
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, you saw a lot of teams that
Speaker 2: were really trying to you know, recreate that you know,
Speaker 2: Steph and Clay Wheel, which like, good luck with that.
Speaker 2: But the reality is you have more and more teams
Speaker 2: these days that are just acknowledging what their realities are.
Speaker 2: Like if you've got a Steff Hey, great, let that
Speaker 2: guy go out there and shoot. You know, A thousand
Speaker 2: and three is a game, but you can. You know,
Speaker 2: what I'm intrigued or what I'm hope with, what this
Speaker 2: UH instilled within me is the hope that we are
Speaker 2: going to have varied and you know, varied offenses.
Speaker 3: Again, it's not all.
Speaker 2: Going to look exactly the same UH and and hopefully
Speaker 2: enough of these teams can ignite and you can you
Speaker 2: can find out that there are more than one way
Speaker 2: to win. So you know, as long as you can
Speaker 2: be competitive doing it, you're doing it your way.
Speaker 3: Please more of it?
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a quick break. We'll come back.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about some things from around the league. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about All Stars. We'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and we have the All Star starters. Were we're in.
Speaker 1: They're in. They just came hot off the press. I know,
Speaker 1: people know about it for a couple of days. So
Speaker 1: we got Jalen Brunson, Donovan Mitchell, Big Cat, Karl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 1: Has he been a starter before?
Speaker 4: Yes, he has, let me go. Okay, if it was.
Speaker 3: Far too confidently, I was like, no, let me go dope.
Speaker 4: Check if he has it's been one time yeah, but
Speaker 4: I mean.
Speaker 1: He's he's surprisingly high on the MVP voting, Like I mean, Ben, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's been incredible. Yeah, Jason Tatum and Jannis Ontkumpo the
Speaker 1: Greek freak ever heard of him? He I think was
Speaker 1: the top vote getter. So it's gonna be he and
Speaker 1: Lebron are the captains. Yes, that Lebron James was the
Speaker 1: top vote getter. Will be a starter on the Western Conference.
Speaker 1: So we have like the you know, this is Jannis's
Speaker 1: ninth time as an All Star, Tatum sixth, cat fifth
Speaker 1: time as an All Star, but he's not been a
Speaker 1: starter before. Jabari is confirming Donovan Mitchell six times. Jalen
Speaker 1: Brunston is making it for the second time. Lebron James
Speaker 1: is making it for the twenty first time, his twenty
Speaker 1: first All Star Game. He was drafted the same year
Speaker 1: as Kirk Heinrich.
Speaker 4: He hasn't played for fifteen years.
Speaker 1: Heinrich.
Speaker 3: Same with the next guy he's about to.
Speaker 1: Do, Kendrick Perkins. He was drafted. It's not not he
Speaker 1: played with Kendrick Perkins. He was drafted the same year
Speaker 1: as Kendrick Perkins. Kendrick Perkins has been a commentator for
Speaker 1: a decade, it feels.
Speaker 5: Like, yeah, okay, I bet you he can't even dribble
Speaker 5: the basketball anymore. I mean he could bows and say
Speaker 5: he could barely dribble then, but like to an NBA level,
Speaker 5: he could cross me up in a heartbeat. But like
Speaker 5: like and I'm only saying that, like it's just so
Speaker 5: how crazy because he hasn't played basketball in ten years?
Speaker 1: Dude, is Kendrick Perkins? Like if you that, that's a
Speaker 1: good point because if you look at what Kendrick Perkins
Speaker 1: game looked like when he would was a rookiear like
Speaker 1: a second or third year player, Like you'd be like, oh, wow,
Speaker 1: Kendrick Perkins, Like I now now I see Like he
Speaker 1: he was a threat. He was like, you know, really
Speaker 1: athletic out there and like and if you compare that
Speaker 1: to like what he looks like playing basketball now, you
Speaker 1: would be like, these aren't the same people something that
Speaker 1: you know, one hundred years have passed between these two
Speaker 1: same with Luke. Walton also drafted the same year as
Speaker 1: Lebron James Lebron James.
Speaker 5: Luke coach against Lebron and one of those finals like
Speaker 5: or or did he coach?
Speaker 3: He coached Lebron.
Speaker 5: He coached Lebron to the Lakers.
Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy, like years ago. He coached years ago.
Speaker 4: Lebron has been with the Lakers for like six years.
Speaker 1: What I'm making is like you look at like Luke Walton,
Speaker 1: Kendrick Perkins, Kirk Heinrich in their second or third year,
Speaker 1: they are you know that compared to right now, you'd
Speaker 1: be like, these are these different people, which is what
Speaker 1: you'd expect that was a lifetime ago. Lebron James is
Speaker 1: better than he was when he was like in his
Speaker 1: second year.
Speaker 5: I feel like, oh yeah, yeah, he's a better basketball player.
Speaker 4: Like how still athletically gifted? Which is still I mean.
Speaker 1: Does you know dunks? That seem impossible to me?
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy, man.
Speaker 1: Kat seems old to me. Katie's six less All Star
Speaker 1: Game appearances than Lebron.
Speaker 2: Just a little bit of added on top of that.
Speaker 2: The average NBA career is four and a half years.
Speaker 2: Lebron has been a Laker for seventh seed. This is
Speaker 2: the seventh season. They were saying he was done prior.
Speaker 3: To even getting here, and this is year seven for
Speaker 3: him here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, listen, I love a Lebron.
Speaker 4: I'm not.
Speaker 5: I'm not a Lebron hater anymore in my life. I
Speaker 5: haven't been since like twenty twenty one, proud of you
Speaker 5: and even and even then even then, Like I haven't
Speaker 5: been like a full blown Lebron hater since like two
Speaker 5: thousand and eighteen.
Speaker 1: And by the way, the very first piece of media
Speaker 1: when I was starting, you know, the LA podcast network
Speaker 1: that became like you know, the iHeart West Coast podcast,
Speaker 1: and I was like, we got to do a podcast
Speaker 1: with Jacquise and Carl Tart and Edgar. The first podcast
Speaker 1: I listened to is you and Carl Tart arguing with
Speaker 1: you being a Lebron.
Speaker 4: Oh, I was a Lebron hater, baby.
Speaker 8: Oh, if you made some hater ray from my hate,
Speaker 8: it would be as thick as clay.
Speaker 5: Slimy and things. But no, I love Lebron, man, I
Speaker 5: love Lebron. He's he's he's goaded. But you know, let's
Speaker 5: also be real, like, you know, there he has shown
Speaker 5: moments where it's like, oh, yeah, Lebron has been playing
Speaker 5: for twenty two years, right, and and so like I
Speaker 5: have a question for y'all, do y'all obviously what the
Speaker 5: All Star Game is is what the All Star Game is,
Speaker 5: and like, he does deserve to be a starter because
Speaker 5: simply because he's earned it, just like Jordan was the
Speaker 5: starter his last couple of All Star games, even though
Speaker 5: he didn't earn it on the court, he earned it
Speaker 5: with his legacy, right, So Lebron is there. I have
Speaker 5: no problem with him being a starter. Obviously, if we
Speaker 5: were just going off stats, Lebron Champs will not be
Speaker 5: starting this game.
Speaker 4: It's just a fan vote.
Speaker 5: Do y'all think there is any in the past four
Speaker 5: or five years, any All Star appearances that he's had
Speaker 5: where he didn't even deserve to be an All Star
Speaker 5: that year, not even a starter because like that, you know,
Speaker 5: we get why he's the starter. It's a fan vote,
Speaker 5: But like if it wasn't a fan vote, if it
Speaker 5: was based on blah blah blah, are there any seasons
Speaker 5: where you're like, maybe he didn't deserve it that year
Speaker 5: in the past like five six.
Speaker 3: Years, It feels like it was a couple of years ago.
Speaker 2: I think he had been out for an extended period
Speaker 2: of time, but you know, he got voted in by
Speaker 2: the fans. YEA, there was probably an artis probably an
Speaker 2: argument at that point yeah, you know.
Speaker 5: But not play wise, No, I mean you think he's
Speaker 5: still like it's all star level player like every single season.
Speaker 2: I think this is the first year like and this
Speaker 2: is probably gonna get get going to get me in trouble.
Speaker 2: But I think this is the first year where you
Speaker 2: can you can say like, okay, it kind to the
Speaker 2: point that you just made like, oh.
Speaker 3: He is forty because you know.
Speaker 2: There's some old man, you know, you know, stuff going
Speaker 2: on at different times.
Speaker 3: And once again, I am not knocking Lebron James.
Speaker 2: The fact that he's in year twenty two is absolutely
Speaker 2: absurd and I will always marvel at that. But yes,
Speaker 2: there are different there are definitely some signs of Okay,
Speaker 2: let's uh, let's keep him healthy for the list.
Speaker 3: Let's try to do one more run with him more,
Speaker 3: one more deep runt.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is actually did you guys see this
Speaker 1: chart where it had it was a gallop pole? I
Speaker 1: believe ooh they picked presidents. Mm, so this is okay. Now,
Speaker 1: this is sports Poll thirty years of intelligence. They asked
Speaker 1: Americans what their favorite athlete was and then just have
Speaker 1: it charted by who's number one in any giving year.
Speaker 1: From nineteen ninety five to two thousand and six. The
Speaker 1: answer is Michael Jordan. Yeah, okay, And then it's gone
Speaker 1: by quarter, so uh six to two thousand and ten,
Speaker 1: it's like late two thousand and nine, No, late so
Speaker 1: six to late twenty ten. Wood, Oh yeah, sorry.
Speaker 4: Sorry, no, no, it's okay, okay, all.
Speaker 1: Right, well we'll go over all right. Next comes a
Speaker 1: single quarter where it is a football.
Speaker 4: Player, which is two thousand and ten.
Speaker 1: Twenty ten a quarter in two thousand and ten.
Speaker 5: Just twenty ten oh one quarterball and it's a football player.
Speaker 4: Yeah, is it? It can't be Tom Brady we all
Speaker 4: hate him, is it?
Speaker 1: You got it for a single three month period, it's
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. He gets a couple three month periods later.
Speaker 1: H Then there's three month where it is back to
Speaker 1: an NBA player. That's not Michael Jordan, it's Kobe Yep. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would have never guessed Kobe. I would have assumed that.
Speaker 3: That would that Celtics in the final second.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that Kobe was like, you know, oh that we
Speaker 5: appreciate you as a player.
Speaker 4: Now that it goes.
Speaker 8: Back to Jordan for another three years, that's purely lebron hey, bro,
Speaker 8: because I would have voted for think.
Speaker 1: About it in twenty eleven, twenty eleven through twenty like
Speaker 1: mid twenty thirteen, that's the number one most popular favorite
Speaker 1: pro athlete. And like granted, so in the height of
Speaker 1: his career, it was like twenty percent of people all
Speaker 1: have the same favorite athlete, and then like once it
Speaker 1: becomes Tiger, it's like in the like seven percent of
Speaker 1: people have the same favorite athlete. So now we're back
Speaker 1: to Jordan and it's like down around six seven percent
Speaker 1: where Michael Jordan is people's favorite athletes. Trades back and
Speaker 1: forth between Jordan and Peyton Manning, but it's mostly until
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. It becomes another a different current NBA player
Speaker 1: again in twenty sixteen.
Speaker 4: I mean I would say, I would say it's Steph.
Speaker 1: It's Steph for one quarter and that's it for the
Speaker 1: entirety of the whole thing. He gets it for one quarter.
Speaker 1: That's just shocking to me. Then it goes back to
Speaker 1: Jordans for three quarters.
Speaker 8: Come on, that Lebron Hayte was pure man, that was
Speaker 8: pure in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, it becomes Lebron James. Yeah, yeah, when
Speaker 1: he wins the title with Cleveland. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's when a lot of Lebron hater's
Speaker 5: leg was like, you know what, yes, yeah, right, what
Speaker 5: else is there to hate now?
Speaker 1: Wait?
Speaker 2: Actually momentarily him in twenty seventeen when people were mad
Speaker 2: that a KD had joined Stephan Oh, because he won
Speaker 2: it in twenty sixteen and it was still Jordan, So
Speaker 2: they gave him one quarter just because they were mad
Speaker 2: about about the KD stuff connection.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that they give him one quarter, then three
Speaker 1: more Jordan, then Lebron for three quarters, so he has
Speaker 1: it for a total of a year. Then it goes
Speaker 1: to somebody whose name you've already mentioned, a football player,
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. Tom Brady in twenty nineteen for a quarter
Speaker 1: that I could see that a little bit, and then
Speaker 1: another two straight years of Michael Jordan.
Speaker 4: This, I love this, so it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: And then back and forth between Brady and Jordan, and
Speaker 1: then it's Brady like twenty two through twenty three, it's Brady, uh,
Speaker 1: then Jordan for like still last year for uh two quarters,
Speaker 1: and then Messi gets it for a single quarter of
Speaker 1: all of which to say, Michael Jordan remains king like
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable how popular he is and always has been.
Speaker 1: But also like I mean, look at who, like you know,
Speaker 1: Lebron kd Are are you know, players who are still
Speaker 1: great but they've you know, people like who they grew
Speaker 1: up with. Like that's gonna be a thing for a
Speaker 1: long time. And everybody's like, oh, the NBA is like
Speaker 1: hard because like they don't have stars that are as
Speaker 1: popular coming up, Like you know, Lebron wasn't as popular
Speaker 1: coming up, but now he's the guy. It's still not
Speaker 1: as popular as I mean, Jordan is like people have
Speaker 1: a religious relationship with they do.
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, listen, here's the thing that's interesting
Speaker 5: to me is if Lebron were to say, like this
Speaker 5: is my last year and did a retirement tour, Lebron
Speaker 5: would be the most popular player on the planet of
Speaker 5: any sport. And I think that would extend for you know,
Speaker 5: a few years even after he retired, because Lebron does
Speaker 5: do a lot of things, like he'll probably go to Hollywood,
Speaker 5: He'll probably you know, so Lebron will have his hands
Speaker 5: in a lot of cookie jars of popularity. It's just
Speaker 5: he's been doing it so long and it's just like
Speaker 5: when is he gonna stop? But I think people, even
Speaker 5: though he only got one quarter in there, which is
Speaker 5: crazy to me, I think people underestimate how much of
Speaker 5: a thorn in Lebron's career Steph Curry was and still
Speaker 5: is to a degree, like that stretch where they played
Speaker 5: each other five straight seasons in the finals or three
Speaker 5: or four straight seasons, whatever it was. And then also
Speaker 5: just like Steph's popularity even though like Steph isn't like
Speaker 5: Lebron James popular like Steph is. Basketball fans get mad
Speaker 5: at me when I say this. Lebron James is obviously
Speaker 5: the goat of his era from two thousand and three
Speaker 5: to now, he's the goat. But Steph Curry changed the
Speaker 5: game way more than Lebron did, Like in my opinion,
Speaker 5: like he like you, Steph Curry literally changed basketball where
Speaker 5: on all levels where you have eight year old shooting
Speaker 5: three point shots, you know, like and that's not that's
Speaker 5: not taken away from Lebron. Lebron which was just doing
Speaker 5: things that we had seen already. He was just doing
Speaker 5: them at an exceptional like level that nobody has seen
Speaker 5: from those skills. But like Curry was like changing the game.
Speaker 5: So like Curry, and Curry also is now what sixteen
Speaker 5: seventeen seasons now and still playing. He's also a starter,
Speaker 5: still playing at the top of his level. Yeah, like
Speaker 5: these players occurred. Jordan played thirteen seasons with the Bulls.
Speaker 5: We don't count the Wizard years. He played thirteen seasons
Speaker 5: with the Bulls, two of which were not full seasons,
Speaker 5: and he was icing his knees by ninety five.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like that was it. That was his career.
Speaker 5: Eleven seasons and two half season, Like that was his career.
Speaker 3: He can't get his ground Jordan Era. He can't get
Speaker 3: that love.
Speaker 4: He can get.
Speaker 5: I mean, look, if he wouldn't have got injured, I
Speaker 5: think those Wizards would have made the playoffs both years
Speaker 5: because he was still doing good. I know, like we
Speaker 5: frowned on those Wizards years. But like a lot of
Speaker 5: people don't like to acknowledge that a lot of the
Speaker 5: down time of those Wizards years was after he got
Speaker 5: injured and he was a forty year old man who
Speaker 5: had taken two two to three year breaks in his career.
Speaker 1: So like I'm gonna get documentary about the Wizards years coming,
Speaker 1: you know, like something's gonna be like Actually, when you
Speaker 1: look back at it, like though he was incredible, what
Speaker 1: he was doing was wild because he was he was
Speaker 1: still twenty.
Speaker 5: He was still with about twenty bro. I guess all
Speaker 5: these young players who like didn't respect him anymore.
Speaker 1: How old was Jordan when he was with the Wizards
Speaker 1: forty one?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like forty and forty one.
Speaker 1: So this this year of Lebron's see of Lebron's career.
Speaker 5: Yeah, with but he also took like three years off
Speaker 5: so he had to get back in basketball shape.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 5: And also it was the nineties and early two thousands.
Speaker 5: Technology was put some ice on your knees. Yeah, now
Speaker 5: you know players have science behind their health.
Speaker 2: Yeah, where are you gonna say, just say, actually, thirty
Speaker 2: eight thirty nine.
Speaker 1: Thirty eight thirty nine, we've already had. We've already had
Speaker 1: Lebron's seasons that were the Wizards years. The hate for Laura,
Speaker 1: I mean it's just Jordan came first. I mean they're
Speaker 1: like he changed how everybody thought about basketball. I get it,
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying like that what Lebron is doing
Speaker 1: is so ridiculous, Like he's already been through the Wizards
Speaker 1: years and is still doing it like took dragged the
Speaker 1: Lakers to the Western Conference Finals in all of the
Speaker 1: Wayne's years.
Speaker 5: Talk to me when Lebron, when Lebron James go back
Speaker 5: in time and play two years in college, talk to
Speaker 5: me when he go play for the Cleveland Indians farm team,
Speaker 5: and talk to me when you take a couple of
Speaker 5: years off. Indeed, yeah, he should have.
Speaker 1: Done all those things. To the point, that's actually a
Speaker 1: really good point.
Speaker 4: Talk tell me how great he is.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, actually I'm never gonna talk about this again
Speaker 1: until that happens. All right, let's take a quick break
Speaker 1: and and we'll come back with my don't look now
Speaker 1: of the week. And we're back, and I mean, just
Speaker 1: closing out the All Star thing real quick. Wemby would
Speaker 1: have liked to see him a starter, But he'll be
Speaker 1: in there, and would have liked to see him a starter.
Speaker 1: He'll be in there well, you know, once the coaches
Speaker 1: are added in, and then they'll be split into three
Speaker 1: teams and playing a single elimination tournament against the winners
Speaker 1: of the Rising Stars Challenge. I'm not sure how it
Speaker 1: all is gonna work. It's gonna be interesting, but yeah,
Speaker 1: just around the league, Bucks are playing well. They're in
Speaker 1: the fourth fourth seed at the moment. Pacers went from
Speaker 1: a nine to fourteen start to twenty five and twenty
Speaker 1: now five games over five hundred, So look out for
Speaker 1: the Central Division.
Speaker 4: Yeah, every team but the Bulls.
Speaker 1: Maybe the Bulls started out looking.
Speaker 5: Yeah looking at you know, I mean I think they
Speaker 5: I think they will still make the play in and
Speaker 5: then you know, probably lose the first game and go home.
Speaker 5: But you know, yeah, we are who we are.
Speaker 1: You are the second most three point attempts of any
Speaker 1: team this year, behind the Boston Celtics.
Speaker 4: Just more proof why the three is dead.
Speaker 1: And then just the other big question is like where
Speaker 1: is Jimmy Butler headed. He's now been suspended for a
Speaker 1: third time by the Miami Heat, and.
Speaker 5: He's suspended for the season right with the Heat at least,
Speaker 5: And definitely, yeah, and definitely you think they're gonna you
Speaker 5: think they're gonna trade him more punish him by keeping
Speaker 5: him there.
Speaker 4: He obviously don't want to be there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like it would be smarter to have
Speaker 1: something on your team via a trade than not.
Speaker 5: But I don't know, I could see him keeping Jimmy
Speaker 5: Butler there for the entire season, truly out of spite.
Speaker 1: We would take him. We would take him and give
Speaker 1: you the seventy six ers, would take him and give
Speaker 1: you Paul George. Just so I will speak on behalf
Speaker 1: of the seventy six ers organization.
Speaker 3: F y, they need you to speak on behalf.
Speaker 5: The Bulls will take you, take them and give you
Speaker 5: one of our statues outside of the United Center.
Speaker 3: They can get the Jordan statue.
Speaker 1: What so you got Jordan's, You got Eddie Curry? Yeah?
Speaker 5: They you have no We're keeping Eddie Curry. Man, you
Speaker 5: can't come on that Chicago kid keeping Curry.
Speaker 4: You can have Jordan's.
Speaker 1: All right, we will take them. But I have no
Speaker 1: idea what's what's going to happen there. I don't look
Speaker 1: now of the week, Oh you know, I'd really love
Speaker 1: to give it to these Lakers, winners of six of seven,
Speaker 1: just a game behind the Nuggets for the fourth seed
Speaker 1: in the Western Conference. Uh, connect is connecting, connects starting
Speaker 1: to starting to make from deep. AD's last four games
Speaker 1: have been bunk bron Is, you know, double digit assists
Speaker 1: and three of the last four Vanderbilt, Who's always been
Speaker 1: my X factor, just by the fact that he never
Speaker 1: plays is finally back playing again. Like having a perimeter
Speaker 1: defender like Vanderbilt and then Davis behind him makes the
Speaker 1: Lakers pretty scary. But I gotta give it to the Rockets.
Speaker 1: They beat the Celtics. I mean, I guess you both
Speaker 1: beat the Celtics, but the Rockets beat Boston in Boston.
Speaker 1: Now thirty one and fourteen on the year, two games
Speaker 1: up on the Grizzlies, staying with him range of the thunder.
Speaker 1: It's so wild how good they are. I'm in toxin
Speaker 1: hit the game winner in Boston. So I mean, it's
Speaker 1: just it's too much fun. It's too much fun right
Speaker 1: now for the Rockets. I gotta give it to them.
Speaker 1: The official Jack O'Brien, don't look now, the official.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say if I was, if I was
Speaker 5: to have one of those don't look now, I would
Speaker 5: say it's the Milwaukee Bucks.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 5: You know, eight wins out of the last ten. You know,
Speaker 5: after all the talk about like Doc Rivers it was
Speaker 5: actually worse for the team and everything like that, which
Speaker 5: you know, I can understand why that conversation was being had,
Speaker 5: but you know, they are turning it around, and you
Speaker 5: know they still got Giannis, who's still top five player
Speaker 5: in the NBA right now, especially if he's on, he's
Speaker 5: very unstoppable. And the team looks they look they look
Speaker 5: like they can make some noise in the East and
Speaker 5: get up there to the top three and and you know,
Speaker 5: be a problem for any team they play. So yeah,
Speaker 5: I would say the Bucks are looking looking pretty hot
Speaker 5: right now too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, looking hot hot looks out of Noah.
Speaker 3: If I had one of those, I would choose a Lakers.
Speaker 3: But you know that's you.
Speaker 1: That doesn't that doesn't sound like the It is the
Speaker 1: rabbit fire round of questioning. Yeah, we throw a bunch
Speaker 1: of questions that you you gotta choose the right answer.
Speaker 1: There are right answers, uh, and there are wrong answers.
Speaker 1: And there's a chance that we might try and throw
Speaker 1: you off your game a little bit or just off topic. Okay,
Speaker 1: you just gotta just gotta not let us do that, Okay,
Speaker 1: or you can, it doesn't really matter. Brian, start the clock.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Brian. All Right, we're gonna open it up
Speaker 1: with this or that. Brought to you by super producer
Speaker 1: Jabari Davis. These are imaginary, create your own players that
Speaker 1: are a lot of fun Jabari, you kick it off,
Speaker 1: I'll come go back and forth.
Speaker 2: I got you, okay, yeah, yeah, all right, So you
Speaker 2: have this or that, who would be the more dominant player,
Speaker 2: Magic with Jordan's athleticism or Jordan at.
Speaker 4: Six foot nine, Magic with Jordan's athleticism.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean yeah, because then it's what are you
Speaker 3: gonna do?
Speaker 5: It?
Speaker 3: Said?
Speaker 5: Yeah, because what else Jordan's gonna do with six nine?
Speaker 5: He was already dunking on people. He's not much else
Speaker 5: he was not is anything that he would do that
Speaker 5: he wasn't already.
Speaker 1: That's fine, I gotta go. Jordan to sixth nine really unfortunate.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it changes his game a little bit.
Speaker 1: Maybe, Yeah, I mean that's true. So I guess that's
Speaker 1: the question, Like does he become six nine and then
Speaker 1: he like comes in the league as a post player
Speaker 1: or something like yeah, yeah, they're like this guy, this
Speaker 1: guy can really bang in the paint.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Or is he six nine and he's exactly the
Speaker 5: same Jordan, He's.
Speaker 1: Exactly the same at six nine, only three extras.
Speaker 3: He becomes the.
Speaker 1: Best I mean he might already be. He's probably the
Speaker 1: best perimeter defender, but like he.
Speaker 4: Becomes Lebron, he becomes so with Jordan's he's.
Speaker 3: Jordan slash a Kim at that point.
Speaker 5: Yeah and maybe maybe, Yeah, I guess I was thinking
Speaker 5: of it, like, you know what else, what could he
Speaker 5: not do? But you give him three extra inches and
Speaker 5: now with that fade away, uh and yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 5: that's a good question. I already locked in, so you know,
Speaker 5: black Man don't cheat, so I'm not gonna change not
Speaker 5: change up.
Speaker 1: Next we got Ai with Mike's height or Kobe with
Speaker 1: Steph's jumper. Ooh, that's good.
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 5: I think I would say Ai with with who's height
Speaker 5: Jordan's height? Yeah six, so like so like five six
Speaker 5: extra inches because we know whatever his listed height was,
Speaker 5: he was only six foot. Yeah, yeah, I would say
Speaker 5: Ai with Jordan's height would be interesting because like he
Speaker 5: probably gets injured less because it's bigger, because he's bigger
Speaker 5: because he played a style where it's like you're too
Speaker 5: small to play this style, but he was just so good,
Speaker 5: So he probably gets injured less and like his jumper
Speaker 5: probably becomes better versus Kobe, like with the stuff jumper, Like.
Speaker 4: It would be dope.
Speaker 5: It would be dope, But like, do we really need
Speaker 5: Kobe going from forty shots a game to sixty because.
Speaker 1: He was like, I'm gonna say, whoever, whichever one you picked,
Speaker 1: the one point barrier has been broken routinely by that point.
Speaker 1: On average, they're putting up so many shots.
Speaker 4: They're putting shots.
Speaker 2: Bro, if you gave Kobe's steps jumper, I think he
Speaker 2: honestly really would average like fifty shots like every single
Speaker 2: like like not not being hyperbolic.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there would be no like you thought he didn't
Speaker 5: pass the ball before, Kobe would not have passed. Kobe
Speaker 5: would have passed to himself every single player.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, this is the best option, all right, keeping.
Speaker 1: It going, ball ball, ball ball.
Speaker 2: Yah. He wakes up screaming it all right. One for
Speaker 2: you of this type, it's a Keen with Shack's power
Speaker 2: or Shack with the Chem's agility and handle.
Speaker 4: Does Shack still have his power? That's the same thing, man,
Speaker 4: because one of them.
Speaker 3: Like, that's a good point. I'll take transfers to Shack,
Speaker 3: transfers to a Keem's power and a Gill.
Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, that's a good point though. I mean I
Speaker 4: guess I would go a Keem with Man the dream shape.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with dream Quake.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the King was a better shooter, yeah, kind
Speaker 5: of than Shack is or was.
Speaker 4: But like that's the thing, like Shack is not even.
Speaker 5: Offensively, because offensively, Shaq and the King both dominated and
Speaker 5: were great, and they just had different Shack's footwork was great.
Speaker 5: I think people don't give him enough credit for his footwork.
Speaker 5: That's why he was so good. It's just like a
Speaker 5: King was way better defensively. Yeah, uh so, which you know,
Speaker 5: which is why he was able to stop Shack so
Speaker 5: much when they played. And you know those championship years, especially.
Speaker 1: Keem Wash size is kind of MBI like, okay, you know,
Speaker 1: like it's kind of yeah similar, yeah, but now it
Speaker 1: will go yeah yeah, but the body you have issues
Speaker 1: with getting injured in that case. All right, you can
Speaker 1: make any finals matchup, Jakeith, utilizing all finals teams from
Speaker 1: throughout history. What is the matchup you would want to
Speaker 1: see more than any other? Oh, for example, ninety six
Speaker 1: Bulls verse eighteen Warriors, ninety six Bulls versus you know,
Speaker 1: the heat the heatles. Who are you going with?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean if the Warriors would have won the
Speaker 5: championship this year, this would be the easiest question. It
Speaker 5: would be the ninety five ninety six Bulls versus that
Speaker 5: twenty fifteen sixteen Warriors team, the two best regular season
Speaker 5: teams in history. But since they biffed the bed, they
Speaker 5: are taken out of that ekway. I think I would
Speaker 5: still go ninety five ninety six Bulls seventy to ten
Speaker 5: with the ring and oh there are two teams that
Speaker 5: I would want to see them against. I think I
Speaker 5: will want to see them against that twenty thirteen fourteen
Speaker 5: Heat team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that you get the vers Lebron.
Speaker 5: Get Jordan versus Lebron. You get Jordan versus like I
Speaker 5: got something to prove Lebron. Yeah, that would be that
Speaker 5: would be a fun matchup.
Speaker 1: I think that's the right answer.
Speaker 5: I think that's the one, Like I guess I would
Speaker 5: go if if it wasn't that, I would go with like, yeah,
Speaker 5: those twenty that first KD title with the Warriors first
Speaker 5: or second, really to be honest with you, and it
Speaker 5: would be, but it would be mostly just out of
Speaker 5: pettiness in spite, like I would just want to show
Speaker 5: people like, oh, yeah, like that Brandon basketball, like the
Speaker 5: Bulls Brandon basketball was better.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, but.
Speaker 5: But as far as like prime teams and like matchups
Speaker 5: and everything like that, that I think that heat that
Speaker 5: he Bulls would be.
Speaker 1: It's fair Bulls. Oh one, Lakers is also very intriguing.
Speaker 1: I just I don't want to see the Bulls lose.
Speaker 1: Then having having Shack going against Luke lonely, you know.
Speaker 4: I mean Robin, he would go against rob Ye.
Speaker 5: I think that would be the match up because Luke
Speaker 5: Luke would be barbecue chicken baby.
Speaker 4: Although Luke did okay against Jack like.
Speaker 5: Look, Luke did like his thing against Shaq like as
Speaker 5: well as he could have the Australian brute that he
Speaker 5: was right.
Speaker 3: I think he had it right.
Speaker 2: Luke would have been okay, maybe not barbecue chicken trip
Speaker 2: on the barbie then Barbie.
Speaker 3: Last one for you. Game of the week. You've got
Speaker 3: a choice. Friday night there's two different games at.
Speaker 2: Bucks at Spurs or Sons at Warriors. Saturday night you
Speaker 2: got Lakers at n and then Sunday you got Books
Speaker 2: at Nicks. Excuse me, no, you got Grizzlies at Books.
Speaker 4: Okay, Lakers. Knicks is in New York.
Speaker 5: That is I couldn't And then we'll go on Lakers
Speaker 5: Knicks in Madison Square Garden Lebron and MSG and think, uh,
Speaker 5: you know that's a hard matchup to that's a hard
Speaker 5: matchup to be as far as storyline and Lebron and
Speaker 5: New York and you don't know how many more these
Speaker 5: you got. Obviously you know we think he'll at least
Speaker 5: play again next year. But you know, Lebron could say, like,
Speaker 5: I think I'm retiring and this could be the last
Speaker 5: ever time he's at MSG, So like, I think, I
Speaker 5: think that's the matchup of the week right there.
Speaker 1: All right, you've chosen correctly on every every question and
Speaker 1: specifically with that game of the week. Good good call,
Speaker 1: Jaquith Neil, What a great guest, What a great job
