Speaker 1: The volume. What's up, guys, and welcome to another episode
Speaker 1: of Sloan Nose by myself, except for this time I
Speaker 1: have a special guest. This is Rookie. Rookie, can you
Speaker 1: tell us who your favorite basketball player is? Oh, my gosh,
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards because he has that dog in him. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Sorry that was such a bad joke. But fun fact,
Speaker 1: Rookie is named Rookie because that's Steph Curry's dog's name.
Speaker 1: You know, basketball love just runs in the family. Okay, Anyways,
Speaker 1: we'll continue and hope that Rookie does embark. Okay, So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start off with my NBA All Star predictions.
Speaker 1: These are my predictions, not who I'm gonna vote for.
Speaker 1: And I preface that by saying that I'm sort of
Speaker 1: that annoying Warriors fan that when I vote for the West,
Speaker 1: I literally vote for the whole Warrior starting five. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think Kevon Looney deserves an All Star vote here
Speaker 1: and there. I'm sorry I do, but here are my predictions.
Speaker 1: So in the West we have Jokic, Luca, Shay, Katie,
Speaker 1: and Lebron. Do I think Lebron necessarily deserves to be
Speaker 1: an All Star starter? Not necessarily, But do I understand
Speaker 1: who Lebron is? Yes, I do. There's just not gonna
Speaker 1: be a time where Lebron's in the NBA and he
Speaker 1: isn't voted as an All Star Starter. It's that simple.
Speaker 1: Next up, let's go to the East. I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be Jannis kat, Jason Tatum, Donovan Mitchell, and Trey Young.
Speaker 1: I know that that's a little bit unpopular, but Trey's
Speaker 1: really been balin, which has been great to see. Oh,
Speaker 1: Roo's you're tired. I guess he thinks that this is boring.
Speaker 1: I don't. Anyways, I think it's really cool to see
Speaker 1: Kat in the talks of being an All Star starter,
Speaker 1: especially because I think when the trade happened to New York.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was necessarily Timberwolves fans or
Speaker 1: just NBA fans in general saying it wasn't a good
Speaker 1: trade for the Knicks. But we see how that worked out,
Speaker 1: and Cat's been balin, so that's been really cool. All right,
Speaker 1: So next up, the Phoenix Suns have changed the price
Speaker 1: of pretty much all of the food in their arena,
Speaker 1: which is so cool. So like a hot dog that
Speaker 1: used to be ten dollars is now two dollars. I
Speaker 1: sort of want to go to a Sun's game. Now
Speaker 1: that's so cool. I mean, you get to watch Kdie,
Speaker 1: you get to watch a d book, you get to
Speaker 1: watch Bradley Beal, and you can have like a one
Speaker 1: dollar pretzel. I mean, what could be better than that.
Speaker 1: Rookie would love that too. He can see a little thick.
Speaker 1: He eats a lot of foods, so okay Rooks. Anyways,
Speaker 1: now we're gonna move on to the slow nosed drip ladder.
Speaker 1: So my producer over here is gonna show me some
Speaker 1: fits from the past few weeks in the NBA, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you guys my thoughts. All right, So
Speaker 1: first off, we have Reed Shepherd in I actually I
Speaker 1: don't have words, but I'll explain it to you the
Speaker 1: best I can. So he's wearing cowboy boots with fish
Speaker 1: nets on them. No hate to people wearing cowboy boots.
Speaker 1: I'm wearing cowboy boots right now. But Reed's boots. Oh
Speaker 1: maybe it's a basketball net. Wow, that's or fishing net.
Speaker 1: I don't know what Reid's doing, but just the boots
Speaker 1: are vulgar. I don't know what's a nice word to
Speaker 1: use to describe them. Okay, then he's wearing some khaki
Speaker 1: overalls and a little red crew neck underneath. I mean
Speaker 1: he is on the rockets. They're red. They play in Texas.
Speaker 1: I still don't really get the vision. But maybe it's
Speaker 1: the Kentucky and him really bringing out the Southern vibes.
Speaker 1: Who knows, but read this is a miss. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give this like a zero out of ten. Okay. Next
Speaker 1: up is Nikhil Alexander Walker, the cousin right of the
Speaker 1: best dressed guy in the league. Okay, so this fits.
Speaker 1: See he's doing He's doing the boots right. So he's
Speaker 1: got some dark brown like suede boots on a nice
Speaker 1: low rise gene. But then he's pairing the casualness of
Speaker 1: the gene with a collar shirt and a tie, a
Speaker 1: full trench coat. The braids are nice. I like everything
Speaker 1: about it. This is a really good, clean fit. It's
Speaker 1: not giving too much, it's not giving too little. It's
Speaker 1: a vibe. I'm gonna give this one an eight out
Speaker 1: of ten. Hold up, I need to revoke what I
Speaker 1: just said about Nikil Alexander Walker's cousin being the best
Speaker 1: dressed guy in the NBA, because, wow, this is a misshee.
Speaker 1: I always get it. I always stand up for you,
Speaker 1: but these boots, what is happening. He's wearing giant boots
Speaker 1: that look like you go like marching in some mud
Speaker 1: in practically skinny jeans, a baggy shirt tucked in. The
Speaker 1: Only things that I like about this are the glasses,
Speaker 1: which are cool in the bag. Those are nice. But
Speaker 1: this is a misshap. It's like a four out of ten. Okay.
Speaker 1: Now we have Terrence Man. Wow, who knew t Man
Speaker 1: could dress? I really like this outfit. He's wearing Doc Martins,
Speaker 1: which are fire. I love Doc Martins, especially as a
Speaker 1: short girl. I need to be wearing Doc Martins. Terence
Speaker 1: Man probably doesn't have that problem as much, but it's
Speaker 1: still cool. Then he's wearing some nice leather baggy pants
Speaker 1: and a sick Harley Davidson bomber. This is a really
Speaker 1: nice fit. I'm gonna give this one a nine out
Speaker 1: of ten. Okay. Lastly, we have Jay Dubb and the
Speaker 1: picture I was given, I do not see his pants,
Speaker 1: but I'm just assuming those were cool, So I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna rank the top part of his fit. So he
Speaker 1: has a little white tank top underneath a big chain,
Speaker 1: a like one of those like I don't even know
Speaker 1: what the word is, but one of those like flannels
Speaker 1: that like dads wear like fish or dads. Okay, And
Speaker 1: then he has a nice leather jacket and some nice glasses. Again,
Speaker 1: I just love glasses. I really like his glasses. It's
Speaker 1: sort of a miss. I don't really like the layering
Speaker 1: with the with the leather jacket and the flannel, but
Speaker 1: I see where he's going and it's jade. He makes
Speaker 1: anything look cool. So I'm gonna give this one like
Speaker 1: a six point five out of ten. All Right, those
Speaker 1: are my fits for now. If you have any fits
Speaker 1: that you want me to rank, make sure to comment
Speaker 1: those down and I'll take a look at those. All right.
Speaker 1: So now we're gonna move on to Darvinham. So Darvinham,
Speaker 1: who was the old head coach of the Lakers and
Speaker 1: won the in season tournament with them, is now an
Speaker 1: assistant coach on the Milwaukee Bucks, who just won the
Speaker 1: latest inn season tournament. Look at that. He just can't
Speaker 1: lose in the end season tournament. In fact, he's undefeated,
Speaker 1: which is amazing, but that doesn't really stand for what
Speaker 1: his career have looked like. Obviously, we know that there
Speaker 1: was a lot of beef when he left the Lakers.
Speaker 1: And what was interesting is once he won with the Bucks,
Speaker 1: he did not hold back on what he had to say.
Speaker 1: He said to do as well as I did as
Speaker 1: the Lakers coach, I swear to God, anyone else, I'm
Speaker 1: probably looking at an extension for what I did. He's
Speaker 1: not talking about feelings. I'm talking about actual facts. He says.
Speaker 1: They go from not making the playoffs to the final
Speaker 1: four in the NBA, the conference finals, and then you
Speaker 1: win the n season tournament, navigate through all the injuries
Speaker 1: and win both of your playing games to get to
Speaker 1: the playoffs. He's not holding back. He thinks that the
Speaker 1: Lakers organization treated him poorly, which you know what, it's
Speaker 1: a fair point. I mean, he did get treated poorly,
Speaker 1: he got booted out of there, and now he's winning
Speaker 1: n season tournaments with the Bucks. So I hear what
Speaker 1: Darvin has to say. I mean, you know, JJ's definitely
Speaker 1: a better fit, but I get what he's saying, all right.
Speaker 1: Next up is Dennis Shrewder to the Dubs. So when
Speaker 1: I first saw this as a Warriors fan, I was hyped.
Speaker 1: I mean, we all know Dennis. He can easily average
Speaker 1: a twenty piece. He's a great defender, he's has a
Speaker 1: great court vision, and he's just a player that's had
Speaker 1: great longevity in the league. He's been a constant player
Speaker 1: for so long. Also, if you watch international basketball, he's
Speaker 1: literally German Jordan. I swear to God, like he's so
Speaker 1: good for Germany. And I don't know if you guys saw,
Speaker 1: but in the offseason he actually played like Division six
Speaker 1: soccer in Germany, so that guy is very athletic. Anyway,
Speaker 1: I say all that to basically say that I was
Speaker 1: really happy saying, oh whatever, like the Wards were just
Speaker 1: in a slump, We're gonna turn it around, Dennis whatever.
Speaker 1: And then we basically lose by fifty to the Grizzlies.
Speaker 1: This is bad. This is bad. I don't like what
Speaker 1: I see. But as much as I don't like what
Speaker 1: I see, I still don't think we should trade for
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler. I don't think we're gonna win a CHIP.
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna be in contingent to win
Speaker 1: a CHIP, So I don't understand why we would get
Speaker 1: rid of our young core for a star that really
Speaker 1: has three to four years left. No hay to Jimmy,
Speaker 1: but I think he should stay in Miami see what's
Speaker 1: going on there. And I think the Warriors need to
Speaker 1: really put all their marbles and put all their marbles
Speaker 1: with Jonathan Kaminga. That was not a good analogy, but
Speaker 1: I'm trying my hardest. Okay, guys, Well that was this
Speaker 1: episode of Sloan Knows the NBA and basketball all by myself.

Speaker 1: of the things you want me to talk about next. Bye.
