Speaker 1: What's up? Esh What about you? Did you know what

11
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: date it was? Because this is that weird time between

12
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: Christmas and New Year's that a lot of people have

13
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: no clue. Man, I've been lost on the date.

14
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 3: Like I didn't know what the date was last week

15
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 3: at all until it was Christmas and then, yeah, nobody

16
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: knows what the date is.

17
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: Nobody does. Nora On I guess it was Saturday. Now

18
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: I'm losing track of the day. She was like, you know,

19
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: are you going into the Classic Factory tomorrow? I mean

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: that was Sunday. I'm like, no, We're going to see Marty.

21
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm not going to work on Sunday already I have

22
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: thoughts for another podcast. Man, not nearly as good as

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: Uncut Gems. Let's just leave it at that. But it

24
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: is Monday and we are doing our NBA Weekend Winners

25
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: and Losers. We will have Trey back hopefully tomorrow, and

26
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 1: Jad at some point is making his way back from Mexico. Willie,

27
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I never know with him. Don't you

28
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: ever think sometimes past twenty years in, he's just gonna

29
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: go on one of these trips one of these days

30
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: and just never return.

31
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: It's a good call. I definitely think that.

32
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, just leave us the keys to the Classic Factory

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: in his house. Yeah, we'll just make it work.

34
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 2: Is there a reason he's meeting with every family member?

35
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: You know, there's something going on there.

36
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: He's enjoying his time on the beach. But yeah, we'll

37
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: have the guys trickling back in later this week. But

38
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: as I said, Weekend Winners and Losers, we had a

39
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: couple of testy days in the NBA. Yeah, over the weekend,

40
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: a Bruja ha to talk about and Giannis getting everybody

41
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: all fired up. We'll get to that, but first we

42
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: had a bunch of wedgies to catch everybody up on,

43
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: and they happened late last week, a lot of them.

44
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 1: Three of them did. Number twenty one, twenty two, and

45
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: twenty three happened all on Tuesday night. Paul George stuck

46
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: the first one there. Then Karl Anthony Towns on the

47
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: turnaround Jumper that was number twenty two. Ooh, nice close

48
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: up there, good work by the cameraman, and then Trey

49
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: Johnson on the fast break got one to stick basically

50
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: under the rim. And then finally this one Friday night,

51
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: Jonathan Isaac in Orlando sticks number twenty four. So that's

52
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: where we're at. Twenty four wedgies. I went and checked

53
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: as we make our way to twenty twenty six. Twenty

54
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: four is not bad before the flip of the calendar year.

55
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: Last year fifteen total weggies when we went from twenty

56
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty twenty five. So twenty four that's

57
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,839
Speaker 1: pretty good. We might get another one or two here

58
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 1: before the year ends.

59
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, on pace for fifty seven, okay, which obviously would

60
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: be an incredible year. Obviously if you're tracking wedgies like

61
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 2: everybody else. Last year yeah, it was it was ah

62
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: quite here forty eight season.

63
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I didn't even hit that magical fifty. I

64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: think we're gonna do it though this year. Okay, NBA

65
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: weekend winners and losers will start with winners, do a

66
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: couple of rounds, get a starter. Where do you want

67
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: to go?

68
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 2: Let's start with the Anstkumbo returning for the Milwaukee Bucks.

69
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: Okay.

70
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: The first question was how is yanis gonna look out?

71
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 2: There been three plus weeks, it's been a calf injury.

72
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 2: Maybe they're gonna take it slow. He looked like the

73
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 2: machine that Yanistetickobo is. He looks spectacular in that first half.

74
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 2: He had three straight possessions in the second quarter with

75
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: monstrous ducks, Yanni's type of ducks, Bang bang bang. Now

76
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: they were playing it a little bit slow, limiting his

77
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:42,119
Speaker 2: minutes twenty four minutes. But that's okay because answer Tookopo

78
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: is efficient when he's out there, twenty nine points in

79
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 2: just twenty four minutes. The second question was how would

80
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: everybody play around him? And I think Anisatakobo helped everybody

81
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: out around him as he does drawing attention. I think

82
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 2: he had a quiet second half and in that fourth quarter,

83
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 2: Ryan Rollins and Yanni's played a pick and roll game.

84
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 2: Two straight possessions in the fourth quarter, and Yanni's basically said,

85
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: we need you Ryan Rollinds, here you go. He kept

86
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: on giving it back to him, kept on giving it

87
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 2: back to him. Ryan Rollins finally said, all right, I'll

88
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: line it up. Hit a shot, hit that three, next possession,

89
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: same thing, pick and roll another three. So Ryan Rollinds

90
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: twenty points. Key key, really good game from him. Yeah,

91
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 2: and he's been the second best player he's for the

92
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Bucks offensively. He's going to get Most Improved Player

93
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 2: of votes. He deserves it. Then, going down to the wire,

94
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: as I think you sort of hinted it, Yani said

95
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: to Coombo the game is over, and Yan said, Goobo

96
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 2: gets the ball fast break, he can just dribble it out.

97
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he doesn't want to do that.

98
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: This was a clear Yanni's I don't give a she

99
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 2: type of moment in idg AF. Everybody talking about me

100
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 2: wanting to get traded. Uh uh, I'm gonna throw this

101
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: one down with the great windmill. Think about this monster

102
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: of a man able to throw down a windmill like that. Huge,

103
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,559
Speaker 2: And then Nikola Vucevic and Kobe White sort of getting

104
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 2: in his face. It was hilarious here.

105
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: All unness took off. That was my favorite part.

106
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 2: He's just done.

107
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 1: He throws down the unnecessary dunk, the unspoken rule that

108
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: you're not supposed to break gives, which we do every

109
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: single year. But then he just takes off.

110
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just does it.

111
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: He's like he threw a stick of dynamite on the

112
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: floor and walked away and let everybody else figure it out.

113
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, they tried to get in his face and Booch

114
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 2: tried to get in his face. And then postgame Booch

115
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: was asked about he said, well, I guess he heard

116
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: the reports that, uh, you know, we weren't going to

117
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 2: trade for him. We just we just weren't going to

118
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: trade for him. He wasn't good enough. Come on, like

119
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: they wouldn't trade absolutely anything for Yannis Kumpo. Hilarious stuff.

120
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 2: But Yanis is in this mode right now. He's at

121
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 2: this point of his career. He just doesn't care. He's

122
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: really willing to get the Bucks as far as they

123
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 2: possibly can. I still think he is not being dealt.

124
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 2: Before the trade deadline and some other reports out there

125
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: that GMS have been calling John Horst and the Milwaukee

126
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 2: Bucks and John Horse basically saying no, we are not

127
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 2: dealing him. According to Michael Scotto of Hoopsie, the gms

128
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 2: are calling and they're saying no, and you could see that.

129
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 2: You could see the way they're playing. I know they

130
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 2: ain't great. They're basically on the outside of the play

131
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 2: and looking in. But you get losses from the Bulls

132
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 2: in this one, and then losses from the Hawks and

133
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: this weekend and here they come. They should be with

134
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 2: ye astead of Google of course that important part with

135
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: him playing, they should be easily you know, into the

136
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: play and playoff picture.

137
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: Johannis did explain his reasoning behind that dunk at the

138
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: end of the too, so I want to hear, oh yeah,

139
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: this is amazing, he said. He's asked about it because

140
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 1: I was like, what the hell is that? I mean,

141
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: you know, that's sort of out a character for you,

142
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: maybe even right, because he's all about like following the

143
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: rules and be a good sportsmanship and all that. He's

144
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: played that card before. He said, we're eleventh in the East, right, Okay, yeah, yeah,

145
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: got to keep finding an identity and if that's got

146
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: to get a little bit of scrappy at the end,

147
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: so be it. We're not champs. Why should we play

148
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: the clock out and have respect and fair play. We're

149
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: fighting for our lives right now. He's basically like he

150
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: is trying to tell us, I did that. Not anything

151
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: to do with bulls trade rumors or anything like that.

152
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: It was like to light light a match under his team,

153
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: a little bit of a spark. Yeah, just and yeah,

154
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: maybe it is an unspoken rule and is weird he

155
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: sort of did it, But he's like, I'm doing it

156
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: for my team to like get us going here.

157
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: Yea, what do I have to lose?

158
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: What do we have to lose? We gotta play hard.

159
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: That is his reasoning. That's why it is an interesting

160
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: winner of the weekend because I think some people are like,

161
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: come on, Yanni, if you're on the other side of this,

162
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: so God, you do a ten minute press conference on

163
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: how you shouldn't do that and there's rules to this,

164
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: get oh well task. I know you're a big honest defender,

165
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: but that could be true. But he's saying, I'm doing

166
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: it to get the guys going.

167
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't care about these meaningless or the unwritten

168
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: rules anymore.

169
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: I mean, we do this every single year. No dunks

170
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: where somebody does this where they throw down a dunk

171
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: or they score at the end of the game when

172
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: they shouldn't. We have done it almost once or twice

173
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: every year. I've done a podcast for twenty years running, so.

174
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: I swear to God we have the bulls sort of

175
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: got mad. I mean it was Vouch and Kobe White's

176
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 2: sort of going up to him, and Bobby portis the

177
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: guy who will always defend anybody on his team. He's

178
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 2: the guy who came off the bench to help out Yearnis.

179
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 1: But magic the roles were reversed and Bozello's three down

180
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: a dunk at the end of the game, the buck

181
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: would be Bobby Ports would like fight them.

182
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

183
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:22,679
Speaker 1: Okay.

184
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 2: This is definitely an extension of the press conference that

185
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 2: he had, but we talked about last week, which was

186
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 2: the press conference when he was injured that nobody was

187
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 2: really talking about when he got up to the mic

188
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: and basically was trying to squash the rumors. Squash the rumors,

189
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 2: as somebody in our comments wanted to correct me on

190
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: my usage of the word squash. Listen, squash has many

191
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 2: different definitions. Anyways, it doesn't matter. But it was an

192
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 2: extension of that when he was basically saying, listen, I

193
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 2: want our team to play better. We need to play better.

194
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, I could, I could see why. I heard

195
00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 2: the postgame comments on why he did. It's to me,

196
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 2: it's just essentially what he wants from his team and

197
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 2: what he wanted from his team preseason, but now it's

198
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: reached this level that listen, I'm here. I ain't a

199
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 2: freaking loser. I do not want a losing record. I

200
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 2: do not want you miss the playoffs. So that's what

201
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: it is. You're right, that's where we are essentially with

202
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Bucks.

203
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,959
Speaker 1: And if you honest is back and looks like he's

204
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: at that MVP level and can play a majority of

205
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: these games at least, they're obviously going to rise in

206
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: the rankings. I think everybody believes that. Of course they will,

207
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 1: yeah in the Eastern Conference if he plays. But will

208
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: John Horse and the Bucks what will they do if

209
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: they are keeping them? If Jannis has not come out

210
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: and said I want to demand a trade, which he

211
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: hasn't from what we know, what will they do? What

212
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: can they do to actually improve this team? Because even

213
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: currently constructed with a healthy honest, they're like, maybe make

214
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: a second round. Like nobody has them as a championship contender.

215
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 1: They haven't been when Anice has been there, and they

216
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: don't look that way when he's even played right.

217
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,559
Speaker 2: And he knows that, and he is definitely pushing. I'll

218
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 2: bring up Ryan Rolinds again because he knows that he

219
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: needs him to play better. And Ryan Rolinds splash and

220
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: was a five to THREEES in this game. He's definitely

221
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 2: been the biggest surprise. Imagine if he didn't even play well.

222
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: He's been so important for this team and they're way

223
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: below five hundred. So yes, they're not gonna They're not

224
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:26,199
Speaker 2: going to be a championship contender with this team now.

225
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 2: I think with the initial talk that was happening, it

226
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 2: was based upon forcing John Horst to go trade one

227
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 2: of those draft picks to improve this team, to help

228
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 2: them here and now, because Yannis was not demanding a trade.

229
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 2: But Yannis was saying, do everything you can because I

230
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 2: want to stay. But if there are going to be

231
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: a team that continues to lose, then I'm going to

232
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 2: have to I'm gonna have to leave. And that may

233
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: happen in the offseason, but I don't see it happening

234
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 2: this season. Because Yan is playing means that they're at

235
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 2: least play and team, probably a playoff team, and then

236
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 2: they go from there. But that being said, if you

237
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 2: watch when you guys miss his games, they stink and

238
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 2: so yeah, so when when he did go out for

239
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 2: you know, two to four weeks, I was watching every

240
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: single game. Now, they beat Boston, but then they get

241
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 2: destroyed by Brooklyn. So if they continue to lose it

242
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: and he was out, then he may have to demand

243
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: a trade. He may have to in his eyes, but

244
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 2: I think he's going to stick around, especially if he's playing.

245
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: But that's the dilemma to me. If you're John Horse

246
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: in the bus, it's like, yeah, you want to keep

247
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: him happy. Yeah, of course you want to keep you honest,

248
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: But like, okay, you trade this future pick? Yeah, very

249
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: little trade, So you trade that you trade. I mean,

250
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of like promising young talent, even

251
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: on their team. You want to keep Ryan Rollins for

252
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: crying of love. My point is, what do you even do?

253
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: What is the move to like catapult you up in

254
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference contender status. I don't really see it.

255
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: I don't think Zach Lavine moves the needle. I don't

256
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: think whatever Tyler Hero moves it. I don't know. I

257
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: don't see it. I don't know what it is.

258
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: I will say that they probably think that Zach Levine

259
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: moves the needle to some degree because their defense has

260
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 2: picked up, but they need somebody offensively. They just need

261
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: an outlet because their defense is solid with Ryan Rollins

262
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: and Miles Turner along with the Nistene Goobo, those three,

263
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 2: and then that the Kevin Porter junior as I brought up,

264
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 2: a very very good offensive player, has really looked decent

265
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 2: in his game so far. He's only been there for

266
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,839
Speaker 2: half the season. And then aj Green and all that

267
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: they've been I think, you know, the rankings, like the

268
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 2: last nine days, they've literally top four defense, maybe their

269
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 2: top three defense. I know it's nine days, who cares,

270
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, I think they do think that a guy

271
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 2: that can score twenty five they need one, and so

272
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 2: it could be a draft pick. If the Sacramento Kings

273
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 2: agree to a draft pick for Zach Lvine, you know,

274
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 2: plus another guy, it could be that. Yeah, that's that's

275
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: what it could be. Now money has to play into

276
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 2: that though, because zachly Ben gets paid a lot. It

277
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,680
Speaker 2: could be a three team trade but all that, Yeah,

278
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: zachly Bean could be the guy.

279
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 1: Let's hear what the people think on the stream team

280
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 1: right now live on YouTube about the Yannis dunk at

281
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: the end. Was it disrespectful? I think it was an

282
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,839
Speaker 1: awesome dunk. Well, it was an incredible poster looks awesome.

283
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean he tweeted about it. He knew how good

284
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: the dunk was. It was like a dunk contest, like

285
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: dunk it was, which I always forget Yannis was in

286
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: a dunk contest. Yeah, wow, yeah, sort of unforgettable.

287
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, do a whole lot.

288
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 1: But do you think it was disrespectful or not? Or

289
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: do you not give a damn? I mean even Stacy

290
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: King was doing the classic like, you know, stop him.

291
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: Somebody could have stop him. You could have wrapped him

292
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: up if he wanted to just get he like let

293
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: him go. Then again, you're not thinking he's gonna go

294
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: down and throw down like a forty nine or a

295
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: fifty dunk and a dunk contest at the end.

296
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty.

297
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: It's amazing this guy doesn't care right now, trying to

298
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: get the team going. All right, Giannis gets a winner

299
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: of the weekend and the bucks from task, let's keep

300
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 1: it going. I want to give a winner of the

301
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: weekend to Kiante George and the Utah Jazz. That is

302
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: something I don't think we've ever sat here on No Dunks,

303
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,680
Speaker 1: but the Jazz beat two of the top three teams

304
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 1: in the NBA on back to back nights over the weekend.

305
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: Kyante George played a huge part in both victories. On

306
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: Friday night, he scored thirty one points and he hit

307
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 1: a beautiful, beautiful floater in the lane with about two

308
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: seconds remaining for the one thirty one, one nine victory

309
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: over the Pistons. That's a good defensive team in Detroit,

310
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: and they had difficulty talking about a two man game

311
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: with Giannis and Ryan Rollins at the end, Lowry Markinen

312
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: and Kyante George were giving them problems running them off

313
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: multiple screens. So great win from Utah and then they

314
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: followed it up on Saturday as that dynamic duo of

315
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: market In and Kiante George powered the team to the

316
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: one twenty seven one fourteen road victory over the Spurs,

317
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: and they ended their winning streak at eight games. Really

318
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: quality win from Utah In that one, they led midway

319
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: through the second quarter and never relinquished the lead. So

320
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: Marketing with twenty nine points and Yante George with twenty eight.

321
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: So back to back wins over Detroit, one of the

322
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: best teams in the Eastern Conference is the best team

323
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: record wise, right, and then San Antonio the hottest team

324
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: in the league at that point. Quality weekend here for

325
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: the Utah Jackson. We can get into more about KNTE George,

326
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: but thoughts on the victories.

327
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 2: They are a good story and they are a good watch.

328
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 2: They could easily put up one hundred and forty points

329
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 2: any given night, Yeah, against anybody, including the top two

330
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 2: teams in the fricking Western Conference, anytime. So they are

331
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 2: fun to watch. Now they give it all back. At

332
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: the other end, they're one of the worst teams in

333
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: the NBA defensively, but they will never not be a

334
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 2: good league pass watch because they are super fun. They've

335
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 2: got super good stories I think within their rotation as well.

336
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: Cody Williams, a guy who's trying to make it here

337
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: in the NBA. I thought was really good against the Spurs.

338
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: Good defensive efforts, eight points, on the other end in transition,

339
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 2: because that's what he does. A guy who's not part

340
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: of the rotation all the time, showed lots of effort.

341
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 2: I think not only the Kante Lowry, but just going

342
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 2: down the roster. I thought Walter Clayton was freaking six

343
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 2: to six off the bench.

344
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: You didn't miss, No, you didn't.

345
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: He's he's always he's always fun to watch as well.

346
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 2: I got a little League pass story a little later

347
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 2: in the show about Walter Clayton. It's not much of

348
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 2: a story, but anyways, it's a note. Anyway, Conte and

349
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: Lowry are also just a great story. Count de George

350
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 2: went to Finland in the summer to go visit Lowry Marketing.

351
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 2: Super fun. So all that they make a good team,

352
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 2: but again, they're going to lose a lot of games.

353
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 2: It's going to be very very difficult for them to

354
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 2: make the playoffs, and Lowry market In is going to

355
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 2: continue as a guy who's played the most games in

356
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: the NBA without a playoff appearance. It sure feels four

357
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy seven at this point. It sure feels

358
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: that way. Look at the freaking West. The West is

359
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 2: just too tough. You'd have to. If you reseeded them

360
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: east and West one through sixteen, maybe they make it.

361
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 2: But look where they look who they're playing behind. Even

362
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: though they are are one of the best, they're you know,

363
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: top twelve offensively, one of the best offenses. Yeah, still

364
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 2: they give away too many points. You look at the

365
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 2: teams seven through ten, now Phoenix, Golden State, Memphis, Portland,

366
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: then it's Utah. Then you got the MAVs chasing them.

367
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 2: I assume they're going to get better. You know, there's

368
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 2: the whole Anthony Davis thing, but they're getting Kyrie Irving back,

369
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 2: I assume. And then you got the Clippers, who will

370
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 2: get to all of a sudden, are a team that's hungary.

371
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: It's going to be really tough for the Utah Jacks.

372
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: It's crowded. I will say this, if the Denver Nuggets

373
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: didn't exist, Kyante George would have a very realistic chance

374
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: at winning the Western Conference Player of the Month for December.

375
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: Because this wasn't just a great weekend from him. He's

376
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 1: had an awesome December. Kante George is averaging in twelve

377
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 1: games played in December, a whole lot of basketball twenty seven,

378
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: seven and five and the Jazz have gone are respectable

379
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: six and six, you know, five hundred basketball over that

380
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 1: stretch of December, shooting forty seven percent from the floor

381
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: forty three percent from deep. But again, pretty sure the

382
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: player of the month is going to go in the

383
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: Western Conference to a guy named Yokic, and if he

384
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: didn't exist, it would probably go to Jamal Murray, who's

385
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: had actually a killer month in December two. But Kyante,

386
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 1: I do think he brought up Ryan Rollins as a

387
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: most improved guy. I saw Kiante George has cracked the

388
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: top five when it comes to most Improved Player of

389
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: the Year odds on Fan Duel, it's Denny Avdia is

390
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: your favorite at plus one point thirty, Jalen Johnson at

391
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 1: plus two twenty, and then Jalen Duran, Josh Giddy, and

392
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 1: Kiante George. So Kiante George has jumped Ryan Rollins because

393
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: I know Ryan Rollins was like a top four, top

394
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: five guy there in terms of odds for MIP for

395
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: a while, but Kiante rightfully up there because he's also

396
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 1: like hitting game winners. He's got like it's something like

397
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: three shots that have put the Jazz ahead in the

398
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: final couple seconds of games this season, and that floater

399
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: was pretty That was no timeout called let the guard cook,

400
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: and he got to his spot and a little tough

401
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: floater there to give them the lead with two seconds goal.

402
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 2: Like I said, yeah, the growth of him has been surprising,

403
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 2: it really has. So he will get plenty of Most

404
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 2: Improved Player votes, but they're relying on him a ton,

405
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 2: and that team is just literally can be a bucket

406
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: any time. Again, those points scored, it literally could be

407
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty any game, and County George is

408
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 2: a huge part of that. They put the ball in

409
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 2: his hands in key moments like that.

410
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: All right, let's do another round of winners of the weekend.

411
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 2: Yet I know a lot of stream teamers are saying

412
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: worst Kawhi is fifty five. We'll get to that in

413
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: a second. But a guy who I think should also

414
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 2: get Most Improved Player votes is also a winner of

415
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: the weekend. Anthony Black of the Orlando Magic is really

416
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 2: important to them, especially with Franz Wagner going down and

417
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 2: then Jalen Sucks doing his annual tradition of missing games. Unfortunately,

418
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 2: they need Anthony Black. And then he had his best

419
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 2: game by far of his career, dropping thirty eight points

420
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: against the Denver Nuggets in a win in Orlando on Saturday.

421
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 2: He's got that ability to closeouts. So even as he

422
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 2: said postgame, you know, I'm I'm really good on this

423
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: team because other guys attract the attention. With Paul le

424
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: bancare out there, with Desmond Bane out there, and you

425
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 2: get a Franz back as a secondary playmaker. He is

426
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 2: really really good and he's really really solid. The three

427
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 2: point shots were incredible for him, by far, the most

428
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 2: of his career. He hit seven threes in this game.

429
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 2: His previous high was four. I know I've mentioned before.

430
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 2: I consider them sort of like a bomb. His shooting

431
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 2: form is kind of like kind of like a shot put,

432
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 2: a little bit of a push shot, but it's going down.

433
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: He is, you know, becoming sort of an average three

434
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,359
Speaker 2: point shooter. They really really do need him, so I

435
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: think he will get some votes, and I think he

436
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 2: had the best play of his career. Put it in

437
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 2: the highlight reel. A minute plus left. He's playing the

438
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 2: pick and roll defensively with Jamal Murray and Jokic doing

439
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 2: their thing. Murray gives it to Jokic. He comes down

440
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: real quick from Nikola, Jokic goes the entire other way.

441
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 2: Jemal Murray gets in his way, he goes through him

442
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 2: and scores and one. Literally. I think that's the best

443
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 2: moment of his career as far as I remember. Put

444
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 2: it on the high right light tape of his career.

445
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: Thirty eight points easily his best game of his career.

446
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 2: Offensively again in those seven threes was extremely important. But

447
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 2: Anthony Black and the Orlando Magic he's needed.

448
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: You could see the Nuggets how they struggle with guards

449
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: like him, athletic guards like him, when they miss Aaron Gordon,

450
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 1: Christian Brown, Cam Johnson now too. I mean they are

451
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: depleted on their wing defenders, right, So a guy like

452
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 1: that can go off. But when I shared the most

453
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: Improved odds when I was talking about Kiante George had

454
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people responding, like, where's Anthony Black. Yeah,

455
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: he's plus five thousand on FanDuel. Yeah for most improved.

456
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna win it overall. But when

457
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: you watch the tape, and I've watched a lot of

458
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: Magic games this year too, he definitely is better. He

459
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 1: has improved his game he attacks a lot more. He's

460
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: realized he is one of the most athletic guys. As

461
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: my voice just went there, come on back, yeah, yeah,

462
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: back boy back, We're back.

463
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 2: Your voice is a dog.

464
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

465
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 2: Your voice has improved as well. Most improved voice. Yeah.

466
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: Well I did that Christmas show. It talked for like

467
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 1: forty minutes straight there. Esh, wouldn't even talk to me

468
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: for that one. You know, a lot going on at

469
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: the house. But yeah, like that when you watch him,

470
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,719
Speaker 1: he has absolutely improved. Yeah, so that is good. And

471
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: that was another entertaining magic win here as they pulled

472
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: it out over the Nuggets. So I think the last

473
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,719
Speaker 1: two minute report though, said, well we missed one, we

474
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: missed one that hurt the Nuggets. There something involving Jamal

475
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: Murray I.

476
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 2: Saw, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, no, but

477
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter that Anythingy Black play as well. Yeah

478
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 2: for this team.

479
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm excited to see him in a postseason like

480
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 1: series here.

481
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was magic overall.

482
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, and him because you know, I want to

483
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: see this in games that actually really matter. Right, He's

484
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: had some obviously reps, but I want to see him

485
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: pop off here. I think he's going to have like

486
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: a game or two where.

487
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 2: He does he can shut he can he can. Yeah,

488
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 2: this is the Anthony Black moment, year three for him.

489
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 2: He'll be twenty two soon. This is the best Anthony

490
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 2: Black we've seen. And you know, you start putting it

491
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 2: all together, putting all the pieces together. You think Franz

492
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 2: and Paula Bencerra, who's been solid helping out, and then

493
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 2: Desmond Paine and he start to piece together, and yeah,

494
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 2: it'll be fun to see them in the playoffs, see

495
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: what they can do.

496
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: There's some similarities to those third year guys in Cante

497
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: George and Anthony Black at guard positions, like figuring it out.

498
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: I think it does take guards, point guards whatever, generally

499
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 1: more time, yeah, to maybe get it going. If they

500
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: don't pop right away in the league, we're like, oh,

501
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: we start writing them off and like, Okay, they don't

502
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 1: have it, you know, like give them a little bit

503
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: of time here, give him some reps and some games

504
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: and they can still have something there. So both those

505
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: guys playing awesome.

506
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Black's only been pushed into the starting lineup

507
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 2: because Jalen Suggs is out. Yeah, and he's been doing

508
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 2: it off the bench for most of the season, but

509
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:03,439
Speaker 2: they literally need a guy that can start because this

510
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 2: happens to sucks every single year unfortunately, where he misses

511
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 2: a bunch of times and he hasn't played. I think

512
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 2: it's December thirteenth, so you know, it's it's not like

513
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 2: a game or two that we all make fun of,

514
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 2: like the load management, but you know that kind of

515
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: thing which is happening throughout the NBA. Jaln sugs, missus stretches.

516
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,879
Speaker 2: So it's nice to see Black step Yeah to the

517
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,199
Speaker 2: MIP plus five thousand. I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't

518
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 2: do it because there's just too many games.

519
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: Too many guys. Yeah, I'm sort of will be shocked

520
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,880
Speaker 1: if avdo Jalen Johnson doesn't.

521
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 2: Win it, right, it's Duran's gotta be.

522
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: And Duran Duran. Yeah, true, that was my pick because

523
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an It's gonna be an All star

524
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: level guy. Right. I don't think Anthony Black is making

525
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 1: the All Star Game.

526
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: I do nothing.

527
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't think Henty George is making the All Star Game.

528
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 1: If a Jazz does make it, it's more likely lowry marketing, right,

529
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 1: So that's what we're getting at it's gonna be of

530
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 1: the if he makes it. Jalen Johnson should make it.

531
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: Jayalen Duran should make it. Probably one of those guys.

532
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: But nice. It's cool that there's like a lot of

533
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:58,240
Speaker 1: guys that competing.

534
00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it seems like it's.

535
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 1: Has most improved Player improved they're saying.

536
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: I think so. I think you're right. I think there's

537
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,959
Speaker 2: way more thoroughbreds out there. I don't know. I think

538
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 2: of horses and with most Improved Player, but there's way

539
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: more horses in the race. It feels like like year

540
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 2: to year doesn't feel like there's been as many that

541
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 2: have been contentent in contention for the award. I don't know.

542
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 2: I'm trying to go back in my brain last year

543
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 2: how many players were worthy of the Most Improved Player award.

544
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 2: That's hard to It's hard to really go back.

545
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: All right. Another winner of the Weekend here. Winner of

546
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: the Weekend to Scottie Barnes. Oh, Scottie insane. Stat line

547
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: from Scottie Barnes on Sunday versus the Warriors in a

548
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: win twenty three points, twenty five rebounds. That's a lot

549
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: of roast beef. Tennis sists, three steals, and a block,

550
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: the first Raptor ever tasked to put up a twenty

551
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 1: and twenty triple double, and he tied the all time

552
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: franchise record for rebounds in a game, either regular season

553
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: or postseason. I believe it was Bismack Biambo with twenty

554
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 1: five once upon a time, but man Scotty Barnes left

555
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: it all out on the floor on Sunday. He was

556
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: subbed out, in fact, with like forty eight seconds to go,

557
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: like under fifty seconds to go in overtime because the

558
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: lead had balloon and the Raptors were gonna win the game,

559
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: so they took him out. You know, a little standing

560
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: oh there from the crowd, well deserved. He laid down

561
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: on the Raptors bench like it was Chris Cayman taking

562
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: a nap. He looked exhausted because every shot the Raptors

563
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: missed or the Warriors missed on the defensive end, he

564
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: was going up to get. And when I mean going

565
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: up like you know us we love, we're like sickos

566
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,879
Speaker 1: when it comes to rebound highlights. He had like two

567
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: or three in this game that were like whoa, He

568
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: just went and got it. Had no right to grab

569
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: that rebound, but just obviously went and took it. Now

570
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: it helped. You're playing a smaller Warriors team, yeah, sort

571
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: of like the Raptors, if we're being honest, not the

572
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 1: biggest team in the league. But Barnes hustled his ass off.

573
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: So twenty three points, twenty five boards tennis is that's

574
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: only been accomplished like eight players in NBA history. Will

575
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: Chamberlain did it eighteen times, and then it's like Elgin

576
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: Baylor did it a handful of times, Bill Russell did

577
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,440
Speaker 1: it once, Jokich did it once, a couple other legends right,

578
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 1: and then now Scotty Barnes on that list. But he

579
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: had the big one to tie the game up. It

580
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 1: was an offensive rebound lay up, did it all in

581
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 1: one motion, very smooth to get the game into obviously overtime,

582
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: and he was just giving them second chance after second chance.

583
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: So Scotty Barnes bringing it and it was nice to

584
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 1: see the Raptors got our j Barrett back. The offense

585
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 1: looked a little bit more dynamic with him back in

586
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: limited minutes. But any thoughts on Scotty.

587
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 2: Barnes or the Raps getting the win there, I love

588
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 2: seeing Scottie Barnes do what a lot of us are

589
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 2: doing during the holidays, just going line down, just relaxing.

590
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: Except we weren't grabbing twenty five rebounds in the Professional Basketbay.

591
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: We were probably eating or drinking watching TV.

592
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's what we're all doing. Yeah. It also

593
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 2: helped him grab boards that Yakka Pertl wasn't playing and

594
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 2: he needed to be extremely reliable grab him boards, and

595
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: he was getting after it. I liked his postgame interview

596
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,440
Speaker 2: where he's just completely transparent when he was told, you're

597
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 2: the first player and Raptor's history to have a twenty

598
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 2: twenty point twenty twenty twenty twenty triple double. I can't

599
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 2: even say it, twenty point twenty rebound triple double, and

600
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 2: he said that's tough. You know, he's just like transparent.

601
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, that's freaking good man. And the only

602
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: other players in Raptors history to have a twenty twenty

603
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 2: twenty point twenty rebound performance Chris Bosh and Popeye.

604
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: John That's right, Popeye made the graphic.

605
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 2: Last night in nineteen ninety six. Oh yeah, I remember that.

606
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 2: I remember that game. It's because I remember because that's

607
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: when I truly became a basketball fan, and only a

608
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 2: basketball fan, because I was a fan of all other sports.

609
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: This is true story you're telling me. Yeah, it's By

610
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: Jones made you just a basketball fan. Yeah, with twenty

611
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: plus rebounds in a game.

612
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's come to think of it, if it

613
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 2: hadn't been for Jones, I've been varied long time ago.

614
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 2: Where did you come from? Way did you go? Where

615
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 2: did you come from? Pop by Jones? Yeah, no, that's

616
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 2: not true. I'm a fan of all sports. But I

617
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 2: threw the word in there. I'd been varied long time

618
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 2: ago because I had to look up. I'd been married

619
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 2: long time ago. Yeah, I didn't realize that was the word. Anyways,

620
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 2: I was, I was very I needed a word just

621
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: to sub in for married and varied. Yeah. Anyways, pop

622
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 2: by Joes. It hadn't been for Pop Bye Jones. Anyways,

623
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 2: where I think the game turned was at the end

624
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 2: of the third.

625
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: It was go ahead.

626
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was ten point le for the Warriors. They

627
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 2: just turned it over three straight possessions.

628
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 1: It was brutal. It was very Raptors ripped off an

629
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: etal run like that to end the Qurterum suddenly are

630
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: back in the game.

631
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, And of quarters, they're important, man, they're super important.

632
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 2: You have literally Gary Payton the second fell in the

633
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 2: back court and just gave it over to Jacoby Walter,

634
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 2: just consecutive possessions, super important and injured d Anthony Melton

635
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 2: really hurt the Golden State Warriors. If he's out there,

636
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 2: that stuff doesn't happen because Melton never turns it over

637
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 2: like that. So that was really really key, and it

638
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: was great to see them go into overtime when Scottie

639
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: Barnes could do the twenty point twenty rebound thing. Otherwise

640
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 2: otherwise he doesn't get there.

641
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: He grabbed a lot more there on the extra frame.

642
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 2: It was important.

643
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: But you're right about that end of that third quarter,

644
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: like we were like, if that doesn't happen, it's more likely.

645
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: We're saying the Raptors are a loser of the weekend.

646
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 1: They got killed by the Wizards in the game prior

647
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: and then got this one in an arena where it's

648
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: like fifty percent Raptors fans and fifty percent Steph Curry fans. Yeah,

649
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: they did. They did slow him down like he had

650
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 1: thirty nine, but he didn't score I don't believe in overtime.

651
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: And at the end of the play or end of regulation,

652
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 1: I guess that was Jamal shed got the offensive foul

653
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: called on Curry because he sort of did like the

654
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: rip through with the with the ball, used it as

655
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: a weapon almost though, popshed in the head and he

656
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 1: went down. Yeah, you might have an opinion where.

657
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 2: That sold it very well.

658
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: He sold it, Yeah, but not allowed to use the

659
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: like that. We know that.

660
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, even the Raptors broadcasters devil In and at Alvin

661
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 2: Williams are saying he hits them with the ball and

662
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 2: he has to swing through. But a lot of it

663
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 2: was arm I probably wouldn't have called it because it

664
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 2: is steph. But it's very difficult. This is when a

665
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 2: guy drops like that and he sold it to the

666
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: referee right in front.

667
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 1: Of him like he was shot. Yeah, exactly. That was

668
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 1: related Raptors news too. Seven foot center Mo Bamba has

669
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: agreed to sign a one year deal with Toronto, so

670
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: he brings some much needed size. We talked about this. Obviously,

671
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 1: the Warriors are small sword of the Raptors without perl

672
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: uh and they have decided, well, let's give him a

673
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: chance here. He was balling out in the G League.

674
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: If you have not been keeping track of Mo Bamba's career,

675
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: I have not, no. Played really well. I think he

676
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: actually snapped the Raptors nine oh five win strong playing

677
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: against them, So he played really well against them.

678
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 2: That's why they signed him.

679
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: He put up big numbers in the G League. Now

680
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: a lot of people do. But this deal is for

681
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: the rest of the season, but it doesn't guarantee until

682
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: January tenth, So people are saying this could be like

683
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: a there's like a two week I'll run here, because

684
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: the Raptors will go about five hundred and seventy five

685
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: thousand dollars over the first apron by signing Mobamba, and

686
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: that's going to put them about two point one million

687
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: over the luxury tax line. So look, it's very likely

688
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: the Raptors are going to shed salary here because they're

689
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: not that great a team and it's just smart thing

690
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: to do on your books and all that. And they

691
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: have moves they can make to get under and they

692
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: probably will add the trade deadline. But here with Mobamba,

693
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: you give it a go until I say that, I mean,

694
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: why not. They need some size. The guy is a

695
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: seven footer and he's like a vet at this point,

696
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: which sounds crazy to say. It's been around for a while,

697
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: so we'll just give him a chance here and look

698
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: them doing this probably not a good sign about Peartl's health.

699
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: They need size in addition to Pearl. But this guy's

700
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: doesn't even play anymore, like with this back issue. It

701
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: is so that's bad.

702
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 2: It is extremely wild, the extension they signed to and

703
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 2: him not playing. I was going to do a Bomba

704
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 2: number five song, but now I won't. I'm a kidding Bomba.

705
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: He has his own song. Isn't there a song called Moment?

706
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 2: Yeah?

707
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: The game ops in Toronto must be pumped.

708
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 2: Oh got they got the options? Yeah, that's unfortunate. They

709
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: didn't literally need somebody like when they signed Bismack Biambo.

710
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: You mentioned the monstrous Beyombo performance. They just needed bodies

711
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: out there.

712
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: Who do you have for another winner?

713
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 2: Well, former Toronto raptor Kawhi Leonard just dropped fifty five points.

714
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 2: Him and the Clippers are looking like a different team.

715
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 2: The fifty five point performance on Sunday against the Pistons

716
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 2: didn't look like a Kawhi Leonard. I know it's been

717
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 2: so long to see him that.

718
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: Looked like Raptors Kawai. Yeah, it was terminator Kawai.

719
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 2: It was to see him get into the mid range.

720
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 2: To see him just locked in by far his biggest

721
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 2: single game performance in regular shits.

722
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 1: You had never had a career fifty piece.

723
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, forty forty five was his career high.

724
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: During the championship year, oh raps nineteen.

725
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 2: So he hasn't done it since. And yeah, he was

726
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 2: literally getting into every possession. It looked like you wanted

727
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 2: to carry his team in his dribble package hitting five threes.

728
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 2: But also defensively, this team looks entirely different. Defensively, they're

729
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 2: on a win streak. So they beat the Pistons because

730
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 2: you know Kawhi is carrying them, coming off a win

731
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 2: against Portland when Brook Lopez had dropped nine threes, classic

732
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 2: Brook thirty and the starting level. Yeah, and it's a

733
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: different starting lineup, so you know, Kawhi had twenty eight

734
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 2: in that game. But they're on a four game win

735
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 2: streak with now Chris Dunn and Brook Lopez as your

736
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 2: starters alongside Kawhi, James Harden and John Collins, who did

737
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 2: missed Sunday's game against Pistons through illness, and they have

738
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 2: a top four defense over the last ten days because

739
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 2: they are a different team. They beat the Lakers, they

740
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 2: beat the Rockets, they beat the Blazers and the Pistons

741
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 2: for their four game win streak.

742
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 1: It's quality.

743
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 2: It is pretty quality. You know, there were some injuries

744
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 2: to the Akers. You know, Luca left that game. But

745
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 2: either way, you beat the Rockets, you beat the freaking Pistons,

746
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 2: you beat headband Kate. What do you think of Kate

747
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 2: Cunningham in his headband? I don't like it as much neither. Yeah,

748
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 2: asked your opinion. I want to hear an opinion. You're

749
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 2: you're more stylish. I'm going to you. It looks.

750
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: It looks.

751
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 2: When you're younger.

752
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: You don't have a Hawk's tuc on today, at least

753
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 1: when you're younger.

754
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 2: I think you got to you got opinions.

755
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 3: Uh, to be honest, I don't know. I'm a big

756
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 3: headband guy.

757
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 2: These days.

758
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,879
Speaker 1: I feel like they're just you know, back in the day.

759
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 2: You know, that's why I went to you. You're younger,

760
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 2: you're mad that people are wearing headbands?

761
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean certain people pulled off it. They

762
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 3: a little bit older, Like I was just literally thinking

763
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 3: about Lebron like should he throw a headband back on?

764
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: Just just because?

765
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, well Kate got a hambit and I don't

766
00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 3: like it when Devin Booker puts one on. I hate

767
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 3: it when I don't like Boston Reeves puts one on,

768
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 3: like what are we doing Cruiso whatever? He looks like

769
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 3: Elmer food from his space jam. Yeah, but I don't.

770
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 3: I don't like the headband right now. Okay, Well, I.

771
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: Wish you could bring back the Ninja ones. The Ninja

772
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: ones were cool.

773
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 2: And correct.

774
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: Yea, head bands get out of here. I swear like

775
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 1: beefs do. Isaiah Stewart almost gets to rock the that

776
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 1: to me looks more like the Ninja headband one. Yeah,

777
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: there's more fabric and he's got a lot of hair

778
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: to keep it all back. Yeah, yeah, that it was

779
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:21,799
Speaker 1: cool to me.

780
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 2: Well, you know, speaking of old things, the Clippers are

781
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,360
Speaker 2: super old. And as I said, they're starting Brook Lopez

782
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,240
Speaker 2: in the place of if it's the Zubats who is injured,

783
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 2: plus Chris Donne, who was you know, their their go

784
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 2: to guy last year. I thought, as you know, the

785
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: sort of the perimeter stopper, he is now cemented into

786
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 2: that starting lineup they're going for there. I mentioned that

787
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 2: they're old because they it will be tough to get

788
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 2: back into the playoff picture, but they ain't far off

789
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 2: now two and a half games back a play in spot,

790
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 2: and with Kawhi looking like that, obviously, you know we

791
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 2: all say, well if he plays, I mean, he looked

792
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 2: entirely different. So a great sign that they're picking up

793
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 2: just that hunger level defensively. And it's I bring up Christune,

794
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 2: but it also just starts with Kawhi Leonard just being.

795
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: Derek Jones junior back. Yes for the clip. Yes, that's

796
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: going to help you defense, for sure, that's what he's

797
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 1: gonna do. And you're gonna hope whatever else he gives

798
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 1: you offensively his golden But uh yeah, are the Clippers

799
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: rounding into more of a team here? Like they were

800
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 1: good defensively last year? There's the weirdest drop off. They

801
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 1: were top five defensive team last year and then suddenly

802
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: they were a bottom five defensive team with basically the

803
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: same squad, So it didn't make a lot of sense.

804
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe they'll piece together this continue this winning

805
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,240
Speaker 1: streak here, would you say four games.

806
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 2: In a row, four in a row.

807
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Kawhi, watch the highlights. If you didn't watch

808
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: the game or you haven't seen the highlights, that was surgical, Kawhi.

809
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: That was terminator quiet like the ball hit the rim.

810
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 1: I think it hit the rim once on a jumper

811
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,839
Speaker 1: or a three because he was also hitting the three ball.

812
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 2: Yep.

813
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: I think there was one shot I can remember that

814
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,800
Speaker 1: rattled in a little bit. When a guy goes for

815
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: fifty five, there are usually the odd shot where it's like,

816
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,719
Speaker 1: well there's a lot bounce, which is one of those nights. Right,

817
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 1: Oh wow, that hit everything and fell in. That not

818
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 1: the case with him. He just line drives his jumpers

819
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: in with his long ass you know, reach and fingers

820
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: and they just like just I don't know, he's like

821
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 1: very little ark when he shoots. It's always been his thing.

822
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: But they still are not touching rim.

823
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 2: It's wild so good. Yeah, and he got to the

824
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 2: free throw and a ton too. Yeah, he had sixteen

825
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 2: free throws. He got into his moves faster than I've

826
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 2: just can remember. Yes, I was just quick. And it

827
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,840
Speaker 2: literally rolled into defense as well, so which is surprising.

828
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: With he looked spry.

829
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 2: He did he did.

830
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 1: I will say too. I think this is maybe controversial

831
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: because I don't think some people like them. The Clippers

832
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: should wear those city edition uniforms all the time. I

833
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 1: like them. Yeah, the orange with the black and like

834
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: that little blue. It's like a throwback to the Buffalo

835
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: Braves and then they moved to San Diego. Like that's

836
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,359
Speaker 1: what they're sort of channeling in those jersey. I love them.

837
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 1: I think they're better than the crap they wear. Yeah,

838
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 1: I'm team those. They should wear those permanently. The Sixers

839
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 1: should wear the Iverson era black uniforms permanently. Go back

840
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: to those. Those should be them. I think the Pacers,

841
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 1: I actually like their city edition like sort of remixed jerseys.

842
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,520
Speaker 1: Those are the three. They should make them their mandatory

843
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:15,920
Speaker 1: go to jerseys.

844
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 2: No you don't agree, well, go to They're nice because

845
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 2: they have they're a little flare away from what they

846
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 2: usually wear. I understand that they're better than the Clippers.

847
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: I just don't like the away.

848
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you see like the Cleveland Cavaliers where they're

849
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,800
Speaker 2: orange's which.

850
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,800
Speaker 1: I like you. I like them a lot orange pete.

851
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, whatever the color, it's hard to tell peach, salmon orange,

852
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 2: but if you just replace you know, their Home and

853
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 2: Aways or you know, one of them. It's just like

854
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 2: this is their jersey.

855
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: Now, I like, yeah, I hear you, you know I do.

856
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,319
Speaker 1: I do like the I know I'm wrong because I

857
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: was looking as I was like, had to make sure.

858
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm like, what are those? You know, I can't keep

859
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: track of these right the City Edition? They are? They are?

860
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,800
Speaker 1: But I saw when doing that, I'm like, people rank

861
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 1: like the thirty City Edition jerseys from worst to best,

862
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 1: and it's like this Clippers one, this LA one, the

863
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: Orange ones they were like always dead last. They were

864
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 1: like twenty ninth or thirty. I'm like, what, I think

865
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,240
Speaker 1: they're some of the best ones. What am I seeing?

866
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:16,400
Speaker 2: I don't know.

867
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,320
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of them. As she got an opinion

868
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: on that, you're young, Yeah, I like those. I like those.

869
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: My favorite ones though, are the Warriors right now with

870
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 1: their court Oh you like the Browns?

871
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

872
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: They Wow.

873
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 3: It looks like a filter, like you know, it looks

874
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 3: like you're watching like it's in Sepia.

875
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, it's unique.

876
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,760
Speaker 3: It was on a TV the other day and Corney

877
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 3: was like, yeah, like these this is my favorite Jersey.

878
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: They should wear these all theos ok we were in

879
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 1: a greens now. Yeah, I can't say I would want

880
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 1: to wear them all the time, but they're they're very

881
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: unique joints. Okay, other NBA weekend winners, I'll just hit

882
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 1: you with a couple quick ones here. Jalen Brown extended

883
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: his thirty point plus scoring streak to nine straight games.

884
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 1: It is incredible that that ties a franchise record. Tatum

885
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,799
Speaker 1: has never done that. Couldn't believe that Larry Bird once

886
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: scored thirty in nine straight games during the eighty five season.

887
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 1: So Brown is gonna have a chance to surpass Bird's

888
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: best streak when the Celtics play against the Utah Jazz

889
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:13,399
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night.

890
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 2: He'll do it.

891
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: Ukid lock that in. There's gonna be a lot of scoring.

892
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 1: He'll probably hit thirty and the Celtics are six and

893
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: three during Jyllen Brown's hot streak. So a little mini

894
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: winner of the Weekend to him. The Brooklyn Nets and

895
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,360
Speaker 1: the Washington Wizards. You know, I showed love to the

896
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 1: Jazz here. I kind of lumped them all together, sort of,

897
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: these bad teams that are playing well right now. The Nets,

898
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: they only played one game over the weekend. But they

899
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: went into Minnesota and they got the w. They embarrassed

900
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: the Wolf so bad that home crowd was booing the Timberwolves.

901
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: After the game, Anthony editors like, yeah, I would have

902
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 1: boot our ass too, you know, like he sort of

903
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 1: took it, but the Nets had. Cam Thomas returned. He

904
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: scored thirty points after missing twenty games with a hamstring injury.

905
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. This is like, you know, NBA winner, weekend,

906
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: weekend winner, but the Nets actually are like winning the

907
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,439
Speaker 1: month of December. Here there's seven and three in the month,

908
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 1: and they have the best defense in the NBA since Thanksgiving.

909
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,399
Speaker 1: Pretty good sample size their tasks where they were the worst,

910
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: they were like twenty ninth or thirtieth, and now are

911
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: the best, like by a significant number. Like the gap

912
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: between their defense and then the Oklahoma City Thunders defense

913
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 1: it's like three points in defensive ratings. So they've been good.

914
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 1: And Michael Porter Junior is on a heater and now

915
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: Cam Thomas is back parallel defense with those guys that

916
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: can obviously score the ball, they're winning some games here.

917
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 2: Hey, they're buying into Michael Porter Junior as their lead guy.

918
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: To see an effort on that team. Now December is

919
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 2: a bit of this newly termed Disney December. Yeah, but hey,

920
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 2: they're playing hard, there's no doubt. And kudos to the

921
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 2: NBA and Adam Silver for putting ten teams in each

922
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 2: conference with hopes of making the playoffs. Because the Brooklyn

923
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 2: Nets have some hope of making the play in Yeah,

924
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 2: there's no doubt. So they are playing hard. Yeah, kudos

925
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 2: to them. Let's see how cam Thomas works in yeah,

926
00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:13,439
Speaker 2: because that is the issue with Cam Thomas. If he's

927
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 2: going to play a bunch of men, if he's going

928
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,280
Speaker 2: to start, he takes away from the offense at times

929
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 2: because it all goes through him and everybody else ain't

930
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 2: touching it the same way. That's why he's optimal as

931
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 2: a six man, I do think. But he can literally

932
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:28,920
Speaker 2: put in forty points any game.

933
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, to return from missing twenty games and score thirty

934
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 1: like that in limited times, in limited time. And then

935
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: the Wizards they won back to back games for the

936
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 1: first time in forever. On Friday, they shot the snot

937
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: out of the ball against the Raptors. Huge win, really impressive.

938
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: Everybody contributing. Keishawn George was awesome, good old Canadian boy.

939
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 1: And then on Sunday, Alex Saar scored twenty block to

940
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: career best six blocks to help Bizards beat the Grizzlies

941
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 1: one sixteen, one to twelve. So that game you saw CJ. McCollum,

942
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: Chris Milton came through in the clutch.

943
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,480
Speaker 2: Anyway, the Wizards, they won two games.

944
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 1: They went from five wins to seven over the weekends.

945
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,240
Speaker 1: That's something deserving of a nod.

946
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 2: Here watching a team like that. You hear the announcer

947
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 2: after they win, say, Wizards win two in a row.

948
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 2: They've won four of seven. That's some sort of accomplishment. Hey,

949
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 2: four and three in their last seven. Yeah, that's it.

950
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: Things are turning around.

951
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 2: I think there's something.

952
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 1: And then finally, Russell Westbrook reached two milestones on Saturday.

953
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: He passed Magic Johnson for seventh place on the NBA's

954
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,399
Speaker 1: all time assist chart, and he became the fourteenth player

955
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: in league history to lock two thousand steals. So the

956
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: assist thing is really interesting to me. He can catch

957
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: two more players on that list this season. Next up

958
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: is Mark Jackson at number six on the list ten

959
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: three and thirty four assists. He did that in nearly

960
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: thirteen hundred games, and then only one assist ahead of

961
00:44:56,239 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: him is number five, Steve Nash. So yeah, Westbrook can

962
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: catch both those guys in theory if he keeps up

963
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: the pace he's sort of on, so he can go

964
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: to top five in all time assists. I just love,

965
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: like right now, I was thinking about this when I

966
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 1: was looking at the Westbrook note every I'm exaggerating a

967
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,799
Speaker 1: little bit, but it feels like every second night it

968
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,799
Speaker 1: feels like one of these OG's in the league is

969
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: leaping someone on some all time list. Right Lebron, He's

970
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:30,360
Speaker 1: done a lot of his work already. Durant, Curry, Harden, Yeah,

971
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 1: Chris Paul, he definitely jumped up above somebody earlier this

972
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:37,240
Speaker 1: season when he was playing. DeRozan has done it. Westbrook

973
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 1: has done it a few times. It's like it feels

974
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: like it's like every other day here.

975
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 2: Tests I wonder if Westbrook would be happy just to

976
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 2: stick with Sacramento rather than go to another team where

977
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 2: he ain't going to achieve as much. He isn't going

978
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 2: to steal as much and we would get assists as much.

979
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,240
Speaker 1: He's just not are you saying Westbrook is stat padding

980
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: all time stats. Now, wow, this is a take.

981
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,280
Speaker 2: Well, no, I wouldn't say that, but I think he's

982
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 2: it's not unhappy to do that. I gets.

983
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 1: I don't know.

984
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 2: I think he would rather go to a playoff team.

985
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 1: He didn't win that game, Yeah, the one I'm bringing

986
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: up on Saturday. I think they followed it up with

987
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 1: a loss last night.

988
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did. I think he'd also rather have Malik

989
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 2: Monk give him the number zero because it is weird

990
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 2: to see Russell Westbrook wearing eighteen? Yeah, period, why can he?

991
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,479
Speaker 2: Why can Why didn't you wear four? This year?

992
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 1: He's worn a couple now, hasn't he?

993
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's He's worn zero and four. I don't think

994
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,959
Speaker 2: the Kings have a guy that wears number four.

995
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 3: I don't know.

996
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 2: If the top of my head, I'm looking at pitching

997
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 2: it up. Yeah, I guess they're switching.

998
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,239
Speaker 1: Kudos to Westbrook there. We'll see how how he gets

999
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,880
Speaker 1: on the all time assists list. Okay, let's take a

1000
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 1: quick break when we come back. Weekend Losers.

Speaker 2: thirty Eastern. The shot clock is what the copy says,

1009
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 2: kind of odd. I would have gone with the clock

1010
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 2: or the game clock is something weird that we don't

1011
00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 2: really say in NBA circles, but the shot clock is

1012
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:35,239

1020
00:47:57,280 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: to do Losers. We didn't do it last week. We

1021
00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 1: were in so such a good move with Christmas right

1022
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: around the corner. But we're doing NBA Weekend Losers and

1023
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,239
Speaker 1: I feel we have a couple to pick from here.

1024
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: Where do you want to start?

1025
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 2: I'm starting with the New Orleans Pelicans. They lost consecutive

1026
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,439
Speaker 2: games in New Orleans to the same basketball team. It's

1027
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:14,839
Speaker 2: hard to do.

1028
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: That is tough to do.

1029
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 2: The Phoenix Suns went in there and smacked them last week.

1030
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 2: When we didn't take winners and losers, I guess it

1031
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,239
Speaker 2: was the day after. Technically, on December twenty third, we

1032
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:27,719
Speaker 2: debated are the New Orleans Pelicans and their five game

1033
00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 2: winning streak capable of making the play in We had

1034
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 2: that debate. Well it's over now. Yeah, yeah, there's too

1035
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 2: many teams rising above them. When we're having that discussion,

1036
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 2: there wasn't as many, and now there's these Clippers are

1037
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 2: alive all of a sudden. It just feels like it's

1038
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 2: very difficult for them to make it. They've lost three

1039
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 2: games since we had that discussion, two of them to

1040
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 2: the Phoenix Suns. Baby. And also why I wanted to

1041
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 2: include this, It wasn't necessarily to talk about the New

1042
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:56,960
Speaker 2: Orleans Pelicans because I didn't need to rip on them anymore.

1043
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 2: Not because they don't deserve it, but it's just it's

1044
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 2: a little tiresome. To be honest, I wanted to give

1045
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 2: Colin Gillespie some freaking love. With the Phoenix Sons NBA

1046
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:10,520
Speaker 2: champ Colin Gillespie first game, he hit a key shot

1047
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:15,040
Speaker 2: one minute left the mid range. You don't have to

1048
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:16,840
Speaker 2: call it a TJ. McConnell, but it sure look like

1049
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 2: a TJ McConnell to get there. Call it the Chris

1050
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 2: Paul to get their jumper cash. Game two, he had

1051
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,479
Speaker 2: five threes in the first half against the Phoenix Suns,

1052
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:31,719
Speaker 2: very very key buckets to help them get somewhere they

1053
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 2: didn't see themselves going at the beginning of the season.

1054
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 2: He's taken the spot of Jalen Green right now in

1055
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 2: the starting lineup. He's definitely capable of coming off the

1056
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 2: bench when Jalen Green is back. I know there was

1057
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,560
Speaker 2: the discussion when Jalen Green went out and Colin Gillespie

1058
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 2: was doing this in the starting lineup. Huh, maybe Jalen

1059
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 2: Green should come off the bench because Gillespie is key.

1060
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 2: He should get some most Improved Player votes, not just

1061
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 2: from Phoenix media members but from other people as well,

1062
00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 2: because who saw it coming. I know I mentioned uh

1063
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,160
Speaker 2: that he was an NBA champion. He gave the look

1064
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 2: NBA champ. Yeah, he gets it. He gets the ring,

1065
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:08,759
Speaker 2: even though he was hurt that entire year. What the

1066
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 2: twenty three Denver Nuggets, Yeah, they give him a ring.

1067
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 2: They would love to have him around. They need a

1068
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:18,240
Speaker 2: ball handler with their second unit to take some pressure

1069
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 2: off Bruce Brown and others. Either way, it was fun.

1070
00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 2: Also Saturday, we saw some fists we did. It was

1071
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 2: wild Mark Williams coming to set a pick on Jose Alvarado.

1072
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 2: Alverado not liking it, pushing him back. Mark Williams throws

1073
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:38,360
Speaker 2: a little fist Alverado the real big fist. Oh yeah,

1074
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,279
Speaker 2: so he got did and that's why he got two games.

1075
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 2: And Mark Williams only got one game suspension for that.

1076
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 2: But a lot of people liking that. For the New

1077
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 2: Orleans Pelicans seeing some fight, some scrap, they're going to

1078
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 2: miss him for the next couple of games, as the

1079
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 2: Suns will miss Mark Williams. But what did you think

1080
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 2: of that little scrap?

1081
00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 1: Well, it just looked hilarious. You got a guy that's

1082
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: like barely six feet tall, and Jose al Barato, I'm

1083
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,760
Speaker 1: taking on a guy's seven feet tall. In Mark Williams.

1084
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 1: So it just looked funny because one guy's trying to

1085
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: punch up you guys, trying to like sort of like

1086
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: Mark Williams wasn't really punching to me. I guess he

1087
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 1: did connect, but he was like more like you know,

1088
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,360
Speaker 1: slapping away, like get away from me. Somebody said it

1089
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 1: looked like I could not stuff laughing from the visual

1090
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 1: that it looked like Jose Albarado was like trying to

1091
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,440
Speaker 1: steal Mark Williams purse and he's like trying to like

1092
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:27,320
Speaker 1: like get away, like you know, like an older woman

1093
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: trying to like get a kid away from stealing a

1094
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:30,839
Speaker 1: purse or something like that. I can't get that visual

1095
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 1: out of my head now. Yeah, I forget who said

1096
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 1: that on Twitter, but it's always great to see an

1097
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 1: actual like a fight. There was definitely punch his throne

1098
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:43,399
Speaker 1: and they went at it a little bit. Usually it's

1099
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,439
Speaker 1: you get off me, ah, you get off me, hold

1100
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 1: me back, hold me back. But it was sort of

1101
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: weird too. It like sort of just came out of nowhere.

1102
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 1: Uh this, you know, Albarado really instigating it.

1103
00:51:54,680 --> 00:52:00,480
Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, it was great. Yeah, it wasn't like

1104
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 2: a hey, let's throw down here. Even the Pelicans broadcasters

1105
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 2: I was watching this live, they couldn't even decide if

1106
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 2: fists were thrown. Yeah, I mean maybe because they're defending

1107
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 2: their guy in Alvarado. But he threw some punches. But

1108
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 2: to get some great photos out of it, you put

1109
00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:15,720
Speaker 2: it were awesome. You put it up on her YouTube page.

1110
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 2: I didn't see it like live. I thought this wasn't

1111
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 2: really a great fight. It wasn't really great.

1112
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 1: It look better, Oh yeah, because there's that one where

1113
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 1: Alvarado was literally punching up at him. Hilarious and like

1114
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,920
Speaker 1: in Mark Williams defense, he was just trying to defend himself.

1115
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 1: I think to some extent. Like again, that's why the

1116
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: joke about like hey, don't take my purse, Like he's

1117
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 1: like slapping this like child away, Like get out of here.

1118
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 1: What did I do? I'm trying to set a pick

1119
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 1: on you, man, what's your problem? But that's why I

1120
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: think you're right that Jose Alvarado got two.

1121
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,720
Speaker 2: Games, yes, Mark, just one. Yeah, good for the Suns.

1122
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 2: Incredible for the Suns that they're at eighteen and thirteen.

1123
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 2: They're five hundred on the road. After winning those couple

1124
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 2: of games, he won three in a row. Great season

1125
00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 2: for them.

1126
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: And did you see Dylan Brooks, Oh yeah, sitting courtside.

1127
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to get to that.

1128
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: You get okay, excellent, okay, excellent.

1129
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 2: A little later in Washington you're talking about ye yeah.

1130
00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:13,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, amazing. All right. My big loser of the weekend

1131
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:18,439
Speaker 1: is the Atlanta Hawks sad Caca. The Hawks dropped two

1132
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: more games over the weekend Friday to Miami, Saturday to

1133
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 1: the Knicks. They capped an zero to five home stand here.

1134
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 1: They've lost six straight. In all, they gave up at

1135
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,680
Speaker 1: least one hundred and twenty six points in each of

1136
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 1: those six defeats. Trey Young has been back for a

1137
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,800
Speaker 1: majority of them. It does not matter. And so after

1138
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 1: outperforming some initial expectations, let's say earlier in the year,

1139
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: this team is crashed back to earth. Atlanta's fifteen and

1140
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 1: eighteen overall. You won't believe this. They're an average offense.

1141
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:55,280
Speaker 1: They're a sub you know, below average excuse me defense

1142
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:57,760
Speaker 1: or nineteenth I think on in defensive rating on the season.

1143
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 1: They're just back to being like so disappointing here and

1144
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 1: like this is the holiday home stand man, there was

1145
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: I went to a couple of these games. You know,

1146
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 1: there's a lot. There was a buzzer at least heading

1147
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: into the homestand they were pretty good. Like I said,

1148
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: Trey was coming back, and they just can't play defense.

1149
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: They didn't stop anybody. Nobody, everybody could score on them.

1150
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 1: And with all these losses comes more intense trade rumors too,

1151
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: And that's what we got over the weekend. We had

1152
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:28,360
Speaker 1: both Chris Haynes and now Mark Stein reporting that the

1153
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,480
Speaker 1: Hawks may be willing to push in some of their

1154
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 1: chips onto the table to try and land Anthony Davis.

1155
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 1: And mark Stein added it is also increasingly believed that

1156
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,759
Speaker 1: Atlanta is willing to surrender Zachary Resachet, the former number

1157
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,439
Speaker 1: one pick in the proverbial right scenario is how Stein

1158
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:49,359
Speaker 1: put it, They almost at this point feels like they

1159
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: got to do something. I don't know what that is.

1160
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't know what your thoughts are on trading for

1161
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis. But here we go again with the Hawks,

1162
00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,319
Speaker 1: and this is very very disappointing. And then I mean

1163
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,799
Speaker 1: the whole part of this, like Trey Yung too, like

1164
00:55:01,840 --> 00:55:04,759
Speaker 1: a guy that they're like basically said, hey, prove to

1165
00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: us you're a max contract guy right without coming to

1166
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:11,440
Speaker 1: an agreement on a new deal. Is he I mean,

1167
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: he still gets stats, but it doesn't translate into much

1168
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: winning basketball. And they're absolutely blitzed when he's out there Defensively,

1169
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 1: they're not much better when he's not out there, like

1170
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,839
Speaker 1: they have no bigs. Porzingis might be coming back soon.

1171
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:23,879
Speaker 1: Sure that helps a little bit, but this guy can't

1172
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 1: stay healthy because of his illness, and you're left with

1173
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 1: another season that feels like wasted to some extent. Some extent,

1174
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: but at least there's some talent in here. But what

1175
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: do you think they should do here?

1176
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 2: Tests Yeah, it's a very very difficult decision. I think

1177
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 2: they don't want to sign Trey Young to a huge,

1178
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 2: huge deal. That's why they didn't extend him. And you

1179
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 2: see it out there on the floor. It's getting called

1180
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 2: out during this home stand by some opposing broadcasters saying

1181
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 2: easing and not getting back here the home stand here

1182
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,359
Speaker 2: in the holidays. Why not because he wasn't scrambled back

1183
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,319
Speaker 2: to help out in a scenario here where you've got

1184
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,880
Speaker 2: guys playing. I was very conscious of Jalen Johnson missing

1185
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 2: games to start his career. He's playing this season, he's

1186
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 2: played so much. Dyson Daniels also an incredible defender playing. Yes,

1187
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:16,920
Speaker 2: no Borzingis, but Anaka Kongu out there helping out the

1188
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:21,920
Speaker 2: defensive attitude, it's not there. So yeah, the question is

1189
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 2: going to for Dallas going for Anthony Davis. It seems

1190
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 2: like you know, according to Stein and Haynes, that Trey

1191
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 2: Jung wouldn't be part of the package, and that would

1192
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 2: that would make sense to me if I'm the Dallas Mavericks.

1193
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,359
Speaker 2: What you just signed Kyrie to a huge extension? Why

1194
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,759
Speaker 2: bring Trey on? So that makes sense now, Resache, Yeah,

1195
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 2: they want to take a chance on as a as

1196
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 2: a complimentary piece. Sure, but what I see from the

1197
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:50,879
Speaker 2: Hawks is not to take on a long term deal

1198
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:53,080
Speaker 2: in Anthony Davis. I mean long term it's this year

1199
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 2: plus two more. I don't know if they do it.

1200
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:57,839
Speaker 2: I know they get better, but who goes in that

1201
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 2: scenario it has to be a monstrous contract. Along with

1202
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:03,280
Speaker 2: Zachary Riesache, I think the front office of the Hawks

1203
00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:09,560
Speaker 2: is just locked in on short term, not short term

1204
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,919
Speaker 2: payment wise. I don't think they need to take on

1205
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 2: an Anthony Davis contract. Unfortunately, because Anthony Davis very much

1206
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:20,440
Speaker 2: like Kristaps Porzingis season.

1207
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:22,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I thought it was pretty telling that Luke

1208
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,480
Speaker 1: Canard did receive a d mp CD on Friday night

1209
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 1: versus the heat, so zero minutes. He was healthy from

1210
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: what I know, first time this season. I think that's

1211
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: happened because I think he would be involved in any

1212
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: sort of deal here, because you could trade Kristaps Porzingis,

1213
00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: Zachary resa Che, Luke Canard some draft capital, not the

1214
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: juicy Pelicans pick, you know, but they have other swaps

1215
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: and they have other future draft picks from other teams

1216
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 1: the Hawks do that they could put in, put one

1217
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:54,160
Speaker 1: in even let's call it that into an Anthony Davis trade,

1218
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 1: and you would have to have probably a Caleb Martin

1219
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 1: or a Naji Marshall coming back. Well, you're saying you

1220
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: still wouldn't do that even if you're the Hawks, And

1221
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 1: now I will say, like that's Porzingis going back to

1222
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: the Mavericks. It's like what maybe rerouted obviously thirteen but

1223
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 1: KP Cannard recessche draft capital to some extent, but not

1224
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: a lot for Anthony Davis.

1225
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:20,080
Speaker 2: And let's say kill amart Oh. I would do it

1226
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 2: in a heartbeat if I was the Hawks. Yeah, now

1227
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 2: that you started to pick, you start to put together

1228
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 2: who they're giving up. Now, a pick is extremely important

1229
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 2: on both sides. The Dallas Mavericks would want to pick,

1230
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 2: and I'm sure the front office there is taking calls

1231
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:35,560
Speaker 2: to see what they can get Franton Davis if theyn't

1232
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 2: get something better than that, because Christaps Porzingi's inclusion is

1233
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 2: literally it's just cash at this point. It's it's it's

1234
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 2: so unfortunate. He looks fricking great in your basket. This

1235
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 2: summer playing for Latfet he looked freaking awesome, and he

1236
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 2: said coming into this season, I feel great physically. And

1237
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 2: he had the the the illness, the unknown illness last year.

1238
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 2: This year it's the the heart rate that has speeded

1239
00:59:02,920 --> 00:59:08,560
Speaker 2: up with the pots as it's called extremely unfortunate. Yeah,

1240
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,880
Speaker 2: but what would the best offered coach coming back for

1241
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis b I think that's the question. And if

1242
00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 2: it is a really good pick and Chris STAPs for

1243
00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 2: his angus, essentially, you know, let's hope Riesa Shay can

1244
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:25,960
Speaker 2: evolve into something better. There's hope for Zachary Reshaus. If

1245
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 2: that's it in comparison to everything else then the MAVs

1246
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 2: do it. I think the Hawks do it as well.

1247
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: The only other one I could think of. If Trey

1248
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: Young is being moved out in an Anthony Davis to

1249
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: Atlanta situation, you could do a three team deal. And

1250
00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 1: I'll throw it at you and everybody listening and watching.

1251
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: What do you think of the Hawks getting Anthony Davis,

1252
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: the Kings getting Trey Young so they get their point

1253
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 1: guard maybe of the future, obviously to build around. And

1254
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:56,040
Speaker 1: then the Mavericks would get Demarta Rosen, Dennis Shrewder and

1255
00:59:56,120 --> 01:00:01,800
Speaker 1: Keon Ellis. Three team deal to Atlanta, Trey Young to Sacramento,

1256
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 1: DeRozan and Shruder, and Ellis to Dallas.

1257
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 2: I think Sacramento should not do that deal. As good

1258
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 2: as Trey Young is, they have to make a decision here.

1259
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:14,760
Speaker 2: We're not just going to stay in the world of mediocrity.

1260
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 2: That's that's exactly what they're doing. If they make that deal,

1261
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 2: they they I think they need some future draft picks.

1262
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 2: I'd like to keep Kean Ellis around as well. But

1263
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 2: if you're moving on from Derozean and Zach Lvine get better,

1264
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 2: I would say all right and out. But they're not

1265
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,160
Speaker 2: a playoff team, that's for sure. I mean, the Hawks

1266
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:37,760
Speaker 2: aren't a playoff team right now.

1267
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,160
Speaker 1: No, unfortunately, And I do think I think it's more

1268
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: likely if they do make a trade for Anthony Davis.

1269
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 1: They do want to like keep Trey Young. They want

1270
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 1: to see like they want to like yeah, like at

1271
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 1: that point, oh my god, if Trey Young can't win games,

1272
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,720
Speaker 1: if they can't win games, if a d was healthy,

1273
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 1: let's say it, because he is a defensive Juggernauts still

1274
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, when he's out there, that's the big if.

1275
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 1: And then you've got guys like like at that point,

1276
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: you're trying to replicate what the Knicks are doing. Right,

1277
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 1: You got Jalen Bruntson. He's awesome offensively, but you can

1278
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: expose him because he's small on the defensive end. But

1279
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 1: what do they do? They got Og, they got Michail

1280
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,240
Speaker 1: Bridges obviously have some bigs behind him. That's what they

1281
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: would be trying to replicate with like almost a smaller

1282
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:17,160
Speaker 1: scaled down version with Dyson Daniels and to kill Alexander

1283
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:19,040
Speaker 1: Walker sort of on the wing and Jalen Johnson on

1284
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,640
Speaker 1: the wing. That's what they're trying to do. You get

1285
01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:23,919
Speaker 1: the vision of it all. But then if you can't

1286
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,240
Speaker 1: win with that, like, like I'm at the point they

1287
01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 1: probably should have traded the trade Yon, like for being

1288
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: honest two years ago and had way more value.

1289
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:34,320
Speaker 3: Didn't because it's everybody say the same thing, like at

1290
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 3: the beginning of this season though, Yeah, Like I feel

1291
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 3: like even on this show, we're like, oh, if he

1292
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:40,400
Speaker 3: can't win with this team, this is his best team,

1293
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 3: and like they were looking a little.

1294
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,200
Speaker 1: Bit better without him. He comes back, they're zero to

1295
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:45,040
Speaker 1: six with him.

1296
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,920
Speaker 3: I like the trades that you guys are throwing out

1297
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,800
Speaker 3: right now, even with Anthony Davis doesn't move, it doesn't

1298
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:52,800
Speaker 3: do anything like with this same team.

1299
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 1: Right, Like it's just you just be making trades just

1300
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: to make trades at that.

1301
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 2: Point, because if Anthony Davis plays, I know it's the

1302
01:01:57,880 --> 01:01:59,200
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis if he plays.

1303
01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 3: But we said the same thing about brazilas if Persingis plays,

1304
01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:04,800
Speaker 3: but Anthony that it was like how many games he

1305
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:06,320
Speaker 3: played this season and what was he looked like for

1306
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 3: the Mavericks.

1307
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 1: Injured right now, for crying out just thirteenth groin injury

1308
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: of his career, you're not even exaggerating.

1309
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why it seems like this Hawk's front office

1310
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 2: is not going all in on on Anthony Davis. I

1311
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 2: don't I don't see this happening just because he's under

1312
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 2: contract for this year and two more.

1313
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,000
Speaker 1: So you just say, you're the Hawks front office, You're

1314
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 1: just like, Okay, it is what it is. We thought

1315
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 1: we were gonna be way better this year, a classic

1316
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:35,120
Speaker 1: five hundred Hawks team, and we'll maybe make the plan.

1317
01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 1: But let's get off the tray on business. Let's not

1318
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 1: lock ourselves into a D business. Let's get a hopefully

1319
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 1: high pick from the Pelicans, take one of these potential superstars,

1320
01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:49,240
Speaker 1: whoever it is, a boozer Peterson, whoever, and go from there.

1321
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:51,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, slow play it. You still played. I think that's

1322
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 2: what they did coming into the season, making that great

1323
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,240
Speaker 2: trade for the New Orleans Pelicans deal or a draft pick,

1324
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,560
Speaker 2: I should say, and not giving trade Young a long extension.

1325
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 2: They are just playing what they've got to help out

1326
01:03:06,160 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 2: to admire other scenarios in another part of the NBA,

1327
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,960
Speaker 2: where teams say, we're just trying to get as much

1328
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:17,200
Speaker 2: talent here as possible, not necessarily sign guys to long

1329
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,520
Speaker 2: term deals, and this offseason another thing they can do

1330
01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:25,040
Speaker 2: is Kristapsportsing is coming off the books entirely and can

1331
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:28,280
Speaker 2: make moves then and there just because they can go

1332
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 2: sign people if they want to come play for the

1333
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 2: Atlanta Hawks.

1334
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 1: It's probably the right decision, but it's really unfortunate that

1335
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 1: they botched it this year of all years, when the

1336
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:41,840
Speaker 1: East was open, right, it's there, there's no tatum on

1337
01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 1: the Celtics. Well right now it might come back, there's

1338
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 1: no help, Like this was the year that they could

1339
01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:51,920
Speaker 1: have like actually the window was open to maybe bump

1340
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: your way through, to crash through. What could they have done,

1341
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,320
Speaker 1: Like it could have just been better. My point of course,

1342
01:03:57,360 --> 01:03:59,480
Speaker 1: traded Trey on before and maybe that works out. I'm

1343
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:02,720
Speaker 1: just saying it's a fortunate like, but it's not surprising, Like,

1344
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 1: don't worry. They'll win a couple of games here and

1345
01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:07,480
Speaker 1: get within five hundred. They're three below five hundred. The

1346
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 1: world's going to fall apart. They need to be one

1347
01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:12,919
Speaker 1: game within five hundred, either sub or above, so they'll

1348
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 1: get there.

1349
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 2: I know they were better without Trey Young and Jalen

1350
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:20,080
Speaker 2: Johnson was looking like a borderline number one type of

1351
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 2: option on your team, and then Nikki Alexander signing of

1352
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 2: four years great, sixty four million look fantastic, But do

1353
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 2: they get better just because Trey Young isn't playing?

1354
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:36,720
Speaker 1: You know, next season they he's not playing.

1355
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, well yeah, I don't know if you

1356
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 2: can rely on again. Games played are important for Jalen

1357
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 2: Johnson as well, he's playing. Will that continue? They got

1358
01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:47,439
Speaker 2: to be a wreck.

1359
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 1: I mean he's like kid, Yeah he's good.

1360
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, already, d age he could be most improved player,

1361
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:56,720
Speaker 2: that's for sure. It would be interesting to see them

1362
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,000
Speaker 2: without Trey, So you do. I think what you're saying

1363
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 2: is maybe if they move on from trade this season.

1364
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 2: They're trying it out this season, but they probably should

1365
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 2: have done it earlier. Yeah, this is what it comes

1366
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:08,160
Speaker 2: down to. Really.

1367
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,480
Speaker 1: Trade has a player option too. I don't know if

1368
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: that convolutes things or what he's gonna do. Like, obviously

1369
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 1: he still gets his numbers, but like there's very little

1370
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 1: demand that feels like across the league for a guy

1371
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:20,600
Speaker 1: at the number he makes, the contract he makes, taking

1372
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: up the percentage he does of your salary cap. For

1373
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,280
Speaker 1: a guy like that's it's been tough to prove he's

1374
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 1: like contributes to a lot of winning basketball yeah, some success. Yeah,

1375
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,600
Speaker 1: the conference finals run. Otherwise it's generally a five hundred team.

1376
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:35,840
Speaker 2: We'll get to a guy who I'm going to bring

1377
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 2: up right here. But who gets dealt before the trade deadline?

1378
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:47,120
Speaker 2: Is it Trey John Morant or LaMelo Ball? Those are conversation.

1379
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:50,680
Speaker 1: In fact, it should be allowed to those three teams

1380
01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:53,200
Speaker 1: with those three point guards, should be able to trade them, right,

1381
01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:56,000
Speaker 1: and then everybody gets like a two week trial run

1382
01:05:56,920 --> 01:05:58,680
Speaker 1: and then you trade them again. So they just do

1383
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 1: the carousel. So that works, and everybody says, Okay, who

1384
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: do you want? You want? You want your old guy back, Okay,

1385
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:05,720
Speaker 1: we'll just give him back to you. No, you want

1386
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 1: this new guy. Try that out.

1387
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:14,160
Speaker 2: Let's do creative and they're super close geographically, they're super close. Memphis, Charlotte.

1388
01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:16,520
Speaker 2: I'll go drive all three of them. We'll do a

1389
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:20,200
Speaker 2: live podcast pickup tray right here in Atlanta. We'll go

1390
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:23,160
Speaker 2: to Charlotte, pick up Mellow, driving to Memphis, pick up Jaw,

1391
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 2: we'll go to come back to here Atlanta. That's fun,

1392
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 2: all right. Live pods those are the three guys.

1393
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:30,600
Speaker 1: Oh, Live pods from the car with the guys as

1394
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:31,760
Speaker 1: we drive them to their new team.

1395
01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:33,120
Speaker 2: I like this, let's do it.

1396
01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:36,160
Speaker 1: Okay, final round of weekend losers.

1397
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, those Memphis Grizzlies and John Ran I watched him

1398
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 2: come back on Friday, came back from his injury. Oh,

1399
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 2: John looks freaking spectacular. He literally did he beat Milwaukee.

1400
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 2: He just looked like John Moran. It looks so fun.

1401
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:54,680
Speaker 2: And then Sunday he goes into Washington. They're sitting sideline.

1402
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks is there, Dylan Brooks because the Phoenix Suns

1403
01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:01,479
Speaker 2: got there early to play the Washington Wizards. I guess

1404
01:07:01,480 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 2: it's the day after. I guess today. I think they

1405
01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 2: play Phoenix Washington. So he's sitting there with John Morant.

1406
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 2: And then the attitude that John Morant brings onto the floor,

1407
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,240
Speaker 2: it ain't a winning type of attitude. Not that he

1408
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,560
Speaker 2: was horrendous or didn't play hard and all that, but

1409
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:18,760
Speaker 2: it's the same thing going on with them giving the

1410
01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:23,520
Speaker 2: Wiz their two game win streak. Johm Rant didn't take

1411
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 2: on that Dylan Brooks type of attitude onto the floor

1412
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:30,520
Speaker 2: to help out his team. And the Memphis Grizzlies are,

1413
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:32,560
Speaker 2: you know, near five hundred. It's sort of what we

1414
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:36,120
Speaker 2: expected of them coming into the season. And that same ballpark.

1415
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,960
Speaker 2: That's what they're over under number was. But all that

1416
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:42,680
Speaker 2: to say, you're playing the Washington Wizards, you should win.

1417
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:46,640
Speaker 2: But that's what happens in Disney December. The teams that

1418
01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 2: shouldn't beginning wins. You know, maybe there's a little lull,

1419
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 2: maybe there's a holiday loll that happens with a lot

1420
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:55,720
Speaker 2: of teams. It was unfortunate that they didn't go and

1421
01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:59,800
Speaker 2: beat the Washington Wizards, simple as that. They could literally

1422
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 2: be five hundred team. But now they're fifteen and seventeen

1423
01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 2: again after getting an incredibly talented job Rant back from

1424
01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 2: injury on Friday. So it's a disappointing weekend.

1425
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:12,800
Speaker 1: And what does this say about well, either Dylan Brooks

1426
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:16,080
Speaker 1: or Washington as a city that Dylan Brooks elected to

1427
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 1: just go watch that game instead of go see the

1428
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: city sites. I've been to Washington a lot of freemans. Yeah, yeah,

1429
01:08:22,200 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 1: it's very nice. I had a great time, great to

1430
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,559
Speaker 1: ken in Washington. But yeah, he just wanted to go

1431
01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:29,880
Speaker 1: to the to the phone booth and watch a game.

1432
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:32,360
Speaker 2: So you're saying it's not fun enough. Washington is fun enough.

1433
01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:33,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it says more about Dylan Brooks.

1434
01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:34,799
Speaker 1: It's just a psycho.

1435
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,920
Speaker 2: He's just by. It was by himself too, Yeah, not

1436
01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 2: with any teammates that didn't look like it.

1437
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 1: Spot a ticket. Watch the game. I like how Dylan

1438
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,639
Speaker 1: Brooks right now in the league weird characters.

1439
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is great. And the Memphis Grizzlies would have

1440
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,000
Speaker 2: loved to pluck him off the seat in his front

1441
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 2: row and have them on their team. I know they

1442
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 2: got rid of him a couple of years ago, but

1443
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:58,599
Speaker 2: he has totally changed. He's a new man. They would

1444
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 2: love that attitude on their roster. They need it sure,

1445
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 2: and they've got a bunch of guys chipping in here.

1446
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 2: And I mean the Suns have way more, way more

1447
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:13,720
Speaker 2: twoed than Memphis Grizzlies. It's unfortunate. I didn't even like

1448
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:16,760
Speaker 2: this is This is me being extremely picky. But game

1449
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:20,240
Speaker 2: is over, Memphis Grizzlies against the Washington Wizards. We just

1450
01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 2: lost and John Rant goes up to Jared Jackson Jr.

1451
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 2: On the floor after the final play, after the buzzer

1452
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:31,080
Speaker 2: And does his routine handshake. I'm being picky, but they

1453
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 2: do like the whole It's like a six piece seven

1454
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:38,360
Speaker 2: piece things. What we just lost. I have a little

1455
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:41,840
Speaker 2: too against the Washington Wizards. I'm being picky. It means

1456
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 2: I guess they're connected and that they're they're on the

1457
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 2: same level. Cool, but win a game, win a game.

1458
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,400
Speaker 2: That's an odd scenario. There again, Jared Jackson Jr. Who's

1459
01:09:52,439 --> 01:09:55,800
Speaker 2: signed there forever and you know they're going through this

1460
01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,880
Speaker 2: extreme lull of a franchise and who they are and

1461
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,920
Speaker 2: what they are and is he gonna stick around? I

1462
01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 2: mean that this is me just speculating he wants to

1463
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:04,720
Speaker 2: be there, he signed there, But it's just a whole

1464
01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:08,240
Speaker 2: lot of scenario with with jaw there as the number

1465
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:09,519
Speaker 2: one guy, but not the number one guy.

1466
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:14,240
Speaker 1: These are franchises in Memphis, in Atlanta's case, I mean,

1467
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:16,400
Speaker 1: maybe the Hornet's case to some extent with Lamola Ball.

1468
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 1: But like it's like they're they're coming to the crossroads

1469
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,240
Speaker 1: of like what's our identity? Yeah, because their identity has

1470
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:24,799
Speaker 1: been in Memphis where John Moran that's our identity. In Atlanta,

1471
01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:27,240
Speaker 1: our identity has been Trey Young And it's like, do

1472
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:28,760
Speaker 1: we want to be that anymore? We don't want to

1473
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 1: be that anymore? Maybe we don't want to be that.

1474
01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:32,320
Speaker 1: You know, they're like it's a tough decision to make.

1475
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean, these are your franchise, guys. They put a

1476
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:36,480
Speaker 1: lot of people in seats, they sold a lot of jerseys.

1477
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,360
Speaker 1: They are your guys. You know you got on Draft

1478
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:43,040
Speaker 1: night obviously. Yeah, and our talented players. But I don't know,

1479
01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:44,839
Speaker 1: Maybe it's run its course in a lot of these cases.

1480
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, And Trey Young is liked around the franchise, like

1481
01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 2: around the organizations as a player, as a teammate, and

1482
01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 2: he went through I think a recovery after the you know,

1483
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:57,800
Speaker 2: the bowing in New York. Here we are, we're in

1484
01:10:57,840 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 2: the conference finals. They fall down, and then he came

1485
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:03,000
Speaker 2: back to play a little more on defense and all

1486
01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:05,479
Speaker 2: of that. And so I think there may be is

1487
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:11,040
Speaker 2: a spot Feransi Salle to sign him to a longer term,

1488
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:13,400
Speaker 2: cheaper deal. But I don't know if it's a good

1489
01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:16,880
Speaker 2: idea for all parties. Really.

1490
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:20,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see, all right. Final loser of the weekend.

1491
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 1: We gotta get to this. The Internet lost its damn

1492
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:25,720
Speaker 1: mine over the weekend when Joel Embiid scored thirty one

1493
01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:30,600
Speaker 1: points versus the Chicago Bulls while appearing to wear no

1494
01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:36,560
Speaker 1: show socks or maybe no socks at all, which sounds insane.

1495
01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:40,519
Speaker 1: I gotta believe there was no show socks in those

1496
01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:43,920
Speaker 1: sketches that he was wearing. Now, our guy, Trey kirbyw

1497
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:47,480
Speaker 1: he was one of the first people online to notice

1498
01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:51,599
Speaker 1: those suckless ankles on embiid. Trey was at the game

1499
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 1: in Chicago celebrating his wedding anniversary with Laura, and he

1500
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,559
Speaker 1: did he blasted some photos and I think there was

1501
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 1: like maybe one other person that noticed it before Trey,

1502
01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:04,479
Speaker 1: but Trey was the first out photos. And then this

1503
01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:08,679
Speaker 1: obviously photos biracles. Yeah, Trey had photos of dwell embiid

1504
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:10,920
Speaker 1: like on the floor, like, where the hell are the socks?

1505
01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 1: Because tass, you gotta admit, this.

1506
01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:16,080
Speaker 2: Is a very rare oh gosha rare.

1507
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 1: Look here. I think guys used to do this, maybe

1508
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:20,680
Speaker 1: more back in the nineties a little bit, but anyway,

1509
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:23,840
Speaker 1: I feel like Tracy McGrady did this once upon a time.

1510
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:27,360
Speaker 1: But Embeid in twenty twenty five. What are your thoughts?

1511
01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 1: Is this warrant a loser of the weekend to you?

1512
01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:32,960
Speaker 2: He also he's got some Ashyanco's got a moisture.

1513
01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, A lot of people pointed that out.

1514
01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:38,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks it looks like yeah, the no show sock,

1515
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:40,439
Speaker 2: for sure. It looks like like the tongue I didn't.

1516
01:12:40,439 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 2: I never knew that he had. He has his own sketchers.

1517
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:51,160
Speaker 2: It's got j E. Yeah, I think I think I

1518
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,439
Speaker 2: will give him props just for being able to pull

1519
01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:55,240
Speaker 2: it off, because I would I would find it hard

1520
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,840
Speaker 2: to pull it off, Like, how do you do that?

1521
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:02,240
Speaker 2: How you You've got some rigorous ankle slash heels to

1522
01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:03,680
Speaker 2: be able to deal with that. He's got to have

1523
01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:04,720
Speaker 2: some sock under there.

1524
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:08,519
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean a lot of people saying this feels

1525
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:10,519
Speaker 1: like such a classic embead move. And what I mean

1526
01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: by that is, was this a sketcher's marketing gimick? Because

1527
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:18,599
Speaker 1: we are looking at photos of these sketchers only because

1528
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,720
Speaker 1: the guy's not wearing socks. We're not looking at them

1529
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:24,759
Speaker 1: because we're like, oh, sketchers, those are cool. But maybe

1530
01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,240
Speaker 1: it's you know, sly little marketing here. Was it some

1531
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:29,880
Speaker 1: sort of troll of some sort I don't know for

1532
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 1: who or for what, but it's embiids so you can

1533
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,920
Speaker 1: never count it out. And the final thing would be

1534
01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:39,240
Speaker 1: that he just forgot, Like I really want to believe

1535
01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:42,120
Speaker 1: that he's playing in no socks, not even those little

1536
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:45,880
Speaker 1: weird little no show socks that like, if you ever

1537
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:48,479
Speaker 1: are wearing and then you show up at somebody's house

1538
01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 1: that you got to take your shoes off, you're like,

1539
01:13:50,120 --> 01:13:53,559
Speaker 1: oh god, oh oh no, I'm taking my no show

1540
01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:57,080
Speaker 1: socks off too, because that is the weirdest look on

1541
01:13:57,200 --> 01:13:57,679
Speaker 1: a man.

1542
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:03,759
Speaker 2: Those are real, Matt Austin. But you like the short

1543
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:05,760
Speaker 2: socks to run in the shorter so.

1544
01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 1: And not not. But you see the sock you can, kindness,

1545
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:09,960
Speaker 1: they're low socks.

1546
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:10,840
Speaker 2: They're pretty low.

1547
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,519
Speaker 1: Fun and yeah, I'm not running in high socks.

1548
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And so I think maybe Joe and beiad

1549
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:18,400
Speaker 2: is using those No.

1550
01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 1: You saw it. Those were low cut shoes. You're seeing

1551
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:24,880
Speaker 1: the ashy ankle. Those are either no show socks, the

1552
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:26,720
Speaker 1: ones that look like you're like, you know, like you

1553
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:30,800
Speaker 1: have little hooves when you wear them, or none or

1554
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: none at all.

1555
01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:31,679
Speaker 3: Ash.

1556
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 1: Do you have an opinion? What do you think is

1557
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 1: going on here? I think he's definitely.

1558
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 3: I don't think he has a sock on at all.

1559
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:42,719
Speaker 3: I don't think these I don't think these are no shows.

1560
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:45,400
Speaker 1: Wow, you don't even think they're no shows?

1561
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm kind of a task here. Maybe he's not

1562
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 3: wearing socks at all, because because most nose shows, like

1563
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,680
Speaker 3: even they would peek over that little they do. You're right,

1564
01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 3: part right a little bit.

1565
01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:57,639
Speaker 1: This is this is just also, no show socks would

1566
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:02,559
Speaker 1: be falling off guaranteed with in the shoot exactly under

1567
01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:08,280
Speaker 1: your foot. It's the worst. But but playing basketball in

1568
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:15,400
Speaker 1: no socks is psychotic. That's crazy behavior in my opinion,

1569
01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:18,200
Speaker 1: that's first off, disgusting and gross. I don't care if

1570
01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,840
Speaker 1: he's changing his sketches after every game, which I'm sure

1571
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,160
Speaker 1: they are, but like that's gross too, is it not?

1572
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:27,200
Speaker 3: Oh, it's definitely gross. Oh yeah, he's got some worse. Well,

1573
01:15:27,200 --> 01:15:29,360
Speaker 3: my family got some hammer toes up under there. You

1574
01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:29,800
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying.

1575
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:33,000
Speaker 1: There's no way like his his feet are jacked up.

1576
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:36,320
Speaker 1: For sure, most professional athletes are, but I mean so

1577
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:42,639
Speaker 1: the max though. Yeah, yeah, no show socks or no socks,

1578
01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:47,559
Speaker 1: what's worse? What's grosser? I played ball on Friday morning.

1579
01:15:48,120 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 1: Uh so we had a big run on Friday morning

1580
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,240
Speaker 1: with the holidays, and I tweaked my ankle again, like

1581
01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:55,240
Speaker 1: I just keep rolling my ankle. So I was like, okay,

1582
01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:56,439
Speaker 1: it was at the end. So I was like, all right,

1583
01:15:56,479 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 1: I'm done, You're done. But it hurt, like a legit hurt.

1584
01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,559
Speaker 1: So I took off my hoop and bring the twos

1585
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:02,479
Speaker 1: right now. I'm about done with those, gonna keep rolling

1586
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:06,559
Speaker 1: my ankle. Do love the shoes anyway, I'm like, I

1587
01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 1: didn't want to put on socks to go home. So

1588
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I'm just gonna slide my sweaty

1589
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,479
Speaker 1: ass feet into like my books and just go home

1590
01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:17,080
Speaker 1: because I didn't want to, Like, they hurt, so I

1591
01:16:17,080 --> 01:16:18,800
Speaker 1: didn't want to put on a sock. You know, your

1592
01:16:18,800 --> 01:16:20,800
Speaker 1: feet are sweaty, too tougher to put a sock out whatever,

1593
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:22,320
Speaker 1: So I was like, all right, I'm just gonna wear

1594
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,200
Speaker 1: these home. I hated doing that. I was a ten

1595
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:29,960
Speaker 1: minute drive home, disgusting, gross. So like hooping for a

1596
01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:33,960
Speaker 1: couple hours. That's crazy to me, man, crazy. Do you

1597
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:34,439
Speaker 1: ever work out?

1598
01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:34,680
Speaker 2: Are you?

1599
01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 3: Like?

1600
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:36,599
Speaker 1: Do you work out in no socks?

1601
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 2: Never? No, no, no. I like I was saying about

1602
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 2: shorter socks, not not not the hoof socks, but short

1603
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:48,639
Speaker 2: ankle type of socks, Like you were those they're writing

1604
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,600
Speaker 2: shoes or writing socks. I should say, yeah, like the

1605
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 2: bombas the bombas type.

1606
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 1: I've even hooped in low cut sock like like whatever,

1607
01:16:57,160 --> 01:16:59,479
Speaker 1: I don't love it anymore. Yeah, like, I'm definitely going

1608
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: sock sock.

1609
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 2: It does look, it doesn't look. I keep it looks

1610
01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:05,720
Speaker 2: I keep searching back here on the monitor because it

1611
01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:10,080
Speaker 2: is odd because you don't see it. I can't. I

1612
01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:13,920
Speaker 2: just I can't. I can't stomach it seeing look under

1613
01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:16,800
Speaker 2: the tongue. There isn't a shoe under the tongue or

1614
01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:21,840
Speaker 2: under a sock under the tongue. Yeah, it's a strange one,

1615
01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:25,600
Speaker 2: but I do agree that it's quite likely it's a

1616
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 2: sketcher's play.

1617
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,680
Speaker 1: Okay, that's got right, So comfortable you don't need to

1618
01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 1: wear a sock.

1619
01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:33,200
Speaker 2: There you go.

1620
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and also like all the NBA socks are Nike too, right,

1621
01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:39,800
Speaker 1: so oh yeah, and they usually do roll them, sort

1622
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,360
Speaker 1: of hide the Nike if you're not a Nike athlete. Yeah.

1623
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,360
Speaker 1: So he's like, screw it, I'm not even wearing a sock.

1624
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:47,599
Speaker 1: It's a good NBA conspiracy right there.

1625
01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is a good NBA conspiracy. Yeah, that's

1626
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:55,640
Speaker 2: a good short right there. Sketchers, Sketchers who wears them.

1627
01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:59,000
Speaker 1: Sketchers should send me a pair though, I mean it.

1628
01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:01,479
Speaker 2: Does say j E the oh right right, right right.

1629
01:18:01,680 --> 01:18:05,160
Speaker 1: It's like basically my sh I'm looking for new shoes

1630
01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:06,880
Speaker 1: right now. I was talking to Ash before we went live.

1631
01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:09,479
Speaker 1: I am, I am thinking about picking up a new

1632
01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 1: pair of shoes to hoopin. So I don't really want

1633
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:15,440
Speaker 1: it to be sketters, but I'm willing to try them out.

1634
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:18,760
Speaker 1: No show of socks or sockless even if you want

1635
01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:19,000
Speaker 1: me to.

1636
01:18:19,680 --> 01:18:23,200
Speaker 2: Okay, see, he's the only NBA player wearing sketchers.

1637
01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:27,519
Speaker 1: I think, so maybe one more. I don't know, I

1638
01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:30,880
Speaker 1: have no idea. Yeah, okay, Well by wee Boy of

Speaker 1: well Boy, sponsored by Martin, a longtime listener who wrote

1641
01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 1: a book called Hell of a Ride. So he's sponsoring

1642
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:43,840
Speaker 1: wobboy here to pitch his own book and we got

1643
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:45,400
Speaker 1: no problem with that. It sounds like actually a pretty

1644
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:47,759
Speaker 1: good book. Nine years ago, after a number of lows,

1645
01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:53,160
Speaker 1: Martin biked seven thousand kilometers, yes kilometers, across Canada to

1646
01:18:53,280 --> 01:18:56,519
Speaker 1: raise money and awareness for mental health, and apparently our

1647
01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:59,599
Speaker 1: podcast No Dunks Here got Martin through some very long

1648
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:04,400
Speaker 1: hours on the bicycle saddle okay. He had us in

1649
01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,680
Speaker 1: his ears for a lot of these miles or kilometers.

1650
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:08,880
Speaker 1: So that bike ride became the basis for a book

1651
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:11,760
Speaker 1: called Hell of a Ride. It got published last year,

1652

Speaker 2: You're getting a free copy. You're getting a free copy.

1658
01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:30,200

1659
01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:31,760
Speaker 2: We haven't agreed on that yet, but I assume. So

1660
01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:33,639
Speaker 2: if you're asking for it, you're getting a free copy

1661
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,559
Speaker 2: sent to you within a sketcher's shoe.

1662
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 3: Oh wow.

1663
01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:42,519
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the whoa boy goes to Kawhi Leonard. He

1664
01:19:42,520 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 1: made me do extra work last night. I made the

1665
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 1: graphic for Scotty Barnes. I was like, the guy went

1666
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 1: for twenty three, twenty five and ten, Like that's a

1667
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: whoe boy right there. And then Kawhi said, no, I'm

1668
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:55,800
Speaker 1: the real board man. Fifty five points career high. As

1669
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,320
Speaker 1: we talked about eleven rebounds, he shot seventeen to twenty

1670
01:19:58,320 --> 01:20:01,599
Speaker 1: six from the field. Five of ten from deep sixteen

1671
01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:04,880
Speaker 1: to seventeen at the line, two assists and then get this,

1672
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:08,479
Speaker 1: eight stocks. He had five steals, three blocks in thirty

1673
01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:13,240
Speaker 1: nine minutes. So Kawhi shows Scottie Bee, I guess how

1674
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:15,000
Speaker 1: it's really done in who Boy. That is a pretty

1675
01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:17,439
Speaker 1: impressive game. I couldn't believe Scotty wasn't gonna get it.

1676
01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:19,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't even know if we mentioned the five

1677
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:21,880
Speaker 2: steals while we were talking about the Clippers defense. He

1678
01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:25,920
Speaker 2: looked like he was connected by five steals. Fantastic.

1679
01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:29,200
Speaker 1: Kawhi, there you go, Thank you Martin for sponsoring Whoe Boy,

1680
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:31,439
Speaker 1: and congratulations on your book. Hell of a ride. Everybody

1681
01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:34,800
Speaker 1: go grab a copy. Support No dunks fans here, all right,

1682
01:20:34,880 --> 01:20:38,559
Speaker 1: pick them tonight. I'm in trouble. I'm six and twelve.

1683
01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:42,639
Speaker 1: Trey is nine and nine. Tonight's twenty ninth. There's thirty

1684
01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:45,559
Speaker 1: one days in December, right, I gotta run the gauntlet

1685
01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:47,519
Speaker 1: here for the rest of December to even tie Trey.

1686
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,800
Speaker 1: So you you're clear, you're not paying off anything. You're

1687
01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:53,960
Speaker 1: fourteen to four. What game are we going?

1688
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:58,400
Speaker 2: So you're saying that we're picking on the thirty first, Well,

1689
01:20:58,520 --> 01:21:00,000
Speaker 2: let's see what happens. Yeah, we'll see what happen.

1690
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:01,679
Speaker 1: It could it could be over tonight and I could

1691
01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:02,519
Speaker 1: be likely paying off.

1692
01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:06,760
Speaker 2: It could be. Yeah, we picked a game with Chicago Bulls. Mainlys.

1693
01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:08,920
Speaker 2: Trade would have to bake the Chicago Bulls because that's

1694
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,240
Speaker 2: what he does. They're at home to the Minnesota timber

1695
01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:16,559
Speaker 2: Wolves for coming off that embarrassing, embarrassing loss, so four

1696
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:18,639
Speaker 2: and a half, I Mike hold on, Am I getting

1697
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:20,680
Speaker 2: Minnesota games mixed up?

1698
01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's all a blur.

1699
01:21:25,280 --> 01:21:27,240
Speaker 2: Well, they lost to the Brooklyn but that was our

1700
01:21:27,320 --> 01:21:29,600
Speaker 2: last game. That was our last game. Yeah, yeah, embarrassing.

1701
01:21:29,640 --> 01:21:32,080
Speaker 2: That's why I took Minnesota me too before and are

1702
01:21:32,120 --> 01:21:34,160
Speaker 2: they're fair by four and a half, right, they got

1703
01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:38,280
Speaker 2: to win by five or more while Tray's taking the

1704
01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:41,080
Speaker 2: Bulls just got to lose by four or less. The

1705
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:42,520
Speaker 2: two of us are on Minnesota.

1706
01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:46,240
Speaker 1: There you go. Yeah, I I initially went into the

1707
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:48,880
Speaker 1: stinking we were doing a show on Wednesday. We probably

1708
01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:51,400
Speaker 1: are not. Now we'll have a show tomorrow and we'll

1709
01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 1: have a show on Friday. But obviously with New Year's

1710
01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:55,479
Speaker 1: we'll see on the thirty first, but maybe we'll just

1711
01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:58,320
Speaker 1: pick anyway, we could do that, but I gotta win.

1712
01:21:58,360 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 1: So if Trey covers of the Bulls cover, then it's over.

1713
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:01,200
Speaker 1: It's a wrap.

1714
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know why that Nets game seems so

1715
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,439
Speaker 2: long ago. Were they're embarrassed at home getting booed? But

1716
01:22:06,479 --> 01:22:09,160
Speaker 2: you mentioned earlier in the show to lose what night was?

1717
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 2: It was Saturday?

1718
01:22:10,000 --> 01:22:10,880
Speaker 1: I see, nobody knows that.

1719
01:22:10,880 --> 01:22:13,559
Speaker 2: It just seems like a long time ago. And they've

1720
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,320
Speaker 2: lost too in a row because of Yokich on Christmas.

1721
01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:17,200
Speaker 2: So here they go.

1722
01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:19,479
Speaker 1: Okay, and uh, I don't know if that one's on

1734
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:49,960
Speaker 2: has improved, there's no doubt watching it this past weekend,

1735
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:53,320
Speaker 2: watching the split screen if you've got a large television,

1736
01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:56,320
Speaker 2: you put up four games.

1737
01:22:56,439 --> 01:22:57,720
Speaker 1: Oh you're going quad, are you? Yeah?

1738
01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 2: They looked really good. I was actually watching the Jazz

1739
01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:04,599
Speaker 2: and I and I heard Walter Clayton with an incredible take.

1740
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:06,680
Speaker 2: But I didn't have my eyes on that one. So

1741
01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:10,320
Speaker 2: I clicked into the game. I clicked the ten second

1742
01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:14,080
Speaker 2: reverse or rewind, did it again to make sure I

1743
01:23:14,080 --> 01:23:17,599
Speaker 2: saw it no problem, and jumped back to the four way.

1744
01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:20,840
Speaker 2: It worked seamlessly. You don't know if you say that

1745
01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:25,519
Speaker 2: Clayton story that that right there, it was a League

1746
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:30,200
Speaker 2: Pass transition was it wasn't a good one. Yeah, but to.

1747
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,160
Speaker 1: See I hope you didn't stick around just to hear

1748
01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 1: that one.

1749
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 2: You should have Walter c Baller six to six. Hey,

1750
01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:40,120
Speaker 2: could you say that? Of old versions of League Pass.

1751
01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:44,479
Speaker 1: Now barely worked? Bare bluffer and yeah, no, it was crap.

1752
01:23:44,640 --> 01:23:48,040
Speaker 2: I was surprised to be able to hop from one

1753
01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:52,639
Speaker 2: game right back into the split screen with no problems, seamless.

1754
01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:53,960
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that from.

1755
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:56,800
Speaker 1: Before it turned out the NBA taking it back from

1756
01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:57,599

1769
01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:33,439
Speaker 1: don't know if it's going to rain more today, but

1770
01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 1: then it is supposed to dip below freezing and you

Speaker 1: know this city and ice. I don't want you guys

1772
01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:42,040
Speaker 1: specifically on the roads driving in ice. But if it

1773
01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:44,320
Speaker 1: doesn't rain today, we're probably good even if it just

1774
01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:46,439
Speaker 1: gets cold. So we'll hopefully be here in the Classic Factory.

1775
