But 30 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 3: normally we start things off with something we'd like to 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: call first off.

Uh, Duke Duke 34 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 3: did it. They went full dookie, and I don't mean 35 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 3: welcome to pair by green Day.

If you don't know what 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 3: that song is about, that's from longview, like right beforehand, 40 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 3: the Blue Devils. They might be used to being in hell, 41 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: but typically they rule it. That's not happening currently. The 42 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 3: boozer is gonna be doing some boozing tonight, as all 43 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 3: Duke fans are the hell's wrong with. 44 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 5: You, Duke. 45 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 3: Dicky V didn't beat Cancer's ass for this. He's in inspiration. 46 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: Love him. Cormac Getty didn't do that front flip in 47 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: the dunk contests and then have those twenty four inch 48 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 3: pythons to distract you from the fact he couldn't shoot 49 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: a jumper for Duke to lose like this. Shane Battier 50 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 3: didn't get those grooves on his head for this kind 51 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 3: of helped him line up the ball more I think 52 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 3: on threes Elton Brand he didn't step aside as the 53 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 3: GM of the sixers for Darryl Morey to come in 54 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 3: and take it make it worse for this. Bobby Hurley 55 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 3: didn't get into that car and drive for this cautionary tale. 56 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: It's a good reminder for all of us. You think 57 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: he's happy Bobby Hurley because his brother beat Duke. It's 58 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 3: his brother winning, but also his school lost. Christian Latner, 59 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 3: he didn't become another nineties white guy with a great 60 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: college career that was a bust in the NBA for this. Okay, 61 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: he did make one All Star team for the Atlanta Hawks. 62 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 3: That actually did happen. JJ Reddick, he didn't write those 63 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 3: raps and dye his hair jet black, kind of like 64 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 3: a bizarro eminem for this. And I didn't pick them 65 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: to win my bracket for this to happen. As soon 66 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: as I walk in, Shane was like, how's your bracket? 67 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: And I responded with, f you. That's how it is. 68 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: My bracket's cooked. We use a certain sound from The 69 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 3: Walking Dead for a long time that I don't think 70 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: I can play right now, but we'll get to it 71 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: a little bit later when your bracket explodes like alder 72 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 3: On and Star Wars. That's what happened to mine. At 73 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 3: least they made it to the lead eight. I didn't 74 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 3: have him losing in like the second round or something. 75 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 3: But this isn't about me. This is about Caden Boozer 76 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: just needing to hold onto the ball and wait for 77 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 3: Yukon to foul him up to with seconds remaining, or 78 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 3: is it. Well, everyone else is blaming little Boozer, and 79 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 3: the young man did take the blame himself postgame and 80 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 3: said quote, I should have been strong with the basketball 81 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 3: and it cost our team our season. It did, but 82 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 3: maybe it wasn't on him. Well, I heard his coach, 83 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 3: John Shire say postgame, you know It's not one play 84 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 3: that lost us a nineteen point lead. It was everything 85 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 3: leading up to that and mistakes along the way, which 86 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,679 Speaker 3: is kind of a way to cover for his player there. 87 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: He also said, quote, you just have to secure it, right, 88 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: We got it. They had to foul. I was ready 89 00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: for a time out. We just had to hold on. 90 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 3: That's simple, right, That's what he said. But you know 91 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 3: what the SYNCD up video looks like. During that play, 92 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 3: John Shire told Kayden Boozer to make the pass. Watch 93 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 3: the video. He was motioning to Kayden to throw it 94 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 3: ahead because they had two blue devils in the front 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: court without a Husky in sight. Now he can say, quote, 96 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 3: we just gotta have to secure the basketball. All he wants. 97 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: He was coaching his player to throw the ball ahead. 98 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: So when you crush Kaden Boozer for the turnover leading 99 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 3: to Raylan Mules three pointer, the logo three, you just 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 3: know that's what his coach instructed him to do. They 101 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:47,359 Speaker 3: got greedy because they knew. They knew that if that 102 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 3: pass goes over the two defenders trapping, if it goes 103 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 3: over their heads, the game is definitely over. Well it 104 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 3: was not, man, Yeah, it is just game now. I 105 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 3: think Caden's thought process was he was trying to make 106 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: that pass because that's what the coach wanted him to do, 107 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 3: and then also because he didn't want to have to 108 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: go to the free throw line and deal with all 109 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 3: that pressure that would be there. 110 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 5: Clutch. 111 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if he's got the clutch, gen he's 112 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 3: a freshman. But you can keep the champagne on ice 113 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 3: Blue Devil fans, because you haven't won a national championship 114 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 3: for over ten years now, it's been since twenty fifteen. Now, 115 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 3: I'm not saying they're head coach John Shires in the 116 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: same bucket as Hubert Davis and should be fired. You're out, 117 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 3: but that blue pitchfork is definitely on his ass now. 118 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 3: That loss, well, it's on coaching. If you look into 119 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,599 Speaker 3: the details, they lost this game in the possession battle. 120 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 3: Listen to this for my friend law Murray, who's coming 121 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 3: up next hour from the Athletic Basketball Expert knows it. 122 00:06:54,960 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 3: All offensive rebounds in the game, Yukhon had thirteen, had 123 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 3: ten different to three turnovers in the game. Yukon had five, 124 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 3: Duke had thirteen. We're talking about plus eleven in the 125 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: possession battle is what Yukon went in this game to 126 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: eventually win by one point. They needed every extra possession 127 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 3: they could get, and Duke gave it to him, including 128 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 3: that last one to uh Mullins for that three ball, 129 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 3: and that was the thing of beauty and he hadn't 130 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 3: hit one all night. 131 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 5: Souter. 132 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 3: All right, here's Duke's last three tournament losses. Now, So 133 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: they blew a nineteen point lead tonight, that was kind 134 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: of rough. Before that, they made one field goal in 135 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 3: the final ten minutes, led by fourteen with eight minutes left, 136 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: by six with one minute left, and lost to Houston. 137 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 3: Before that, they lost to an eleven seed NC State 138 00:07:54,480 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 3: by twelve as a seven point favorite. Then in just 139 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 3: their last four losses total, going back to the regular 140 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: season as well, they've only lost four times over the 141 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 3: last calendar year, Duke. Let's see, they led by fourteen 142 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 3: against Houston. Last year in the Final four, they blew that. 143 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 3: They led by seventeen against Texas Tech and loss. This 144 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 3: year they led by thirteen against UNC and lost. And 145 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,119 Speaker 3: now they led by nineteen against Yukon in the Elite 146 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 3: eight and lost. Are you seeing the pattern here? They 147 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 3: only lost four games in a year and all of 148 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 3: them were from blown leads. In the end, the. 149 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 5: Kids are playing their tail of hundred counts. 150 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 3: Are screwing it up. That's coaching. John Shire might want 151 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: to go back to the Shire. This Lord of the 152 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: Rings journey not for him. He aint getting at the 153 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 3: top of Mount Doom One. Seeds were one hundred and 154 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 3: thirty four and zero when leading by fifteen or more 155 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 3: at the half in the history of the NCAA tournament 156 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 3: until now, Duke were t twenty seven to zero as 157 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 3: a program when leading by fifteen or more in the tournament. 158 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 3: So as much as we joke about how this is 159 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 3: a typical Duke choke job, make no mistake about it. 160 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 3: This was their disaster piece. This was a master class 161 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 3: in a collapse. This is the worst they've ever blown 162 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: it by far in the history of the program. Now, 163 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 3: when something like this happens, as Ben Maller would say, 164 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: I mean, Adam Ashley, the story is in the losing 165 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: locker room.

Shut up. This 241 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 3: guy saw his season coming to an end. He's in 242 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 3: shock and he's trying to wiggle his way out of it. No, no, no, dookiees, 243 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 3: you gotta take your medicine. You think the rules should 244 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 3: be duke never loses, that's your problem here. Well, they do, 245 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 3: and they lose in pretty bad and big spots and 246 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 3: if it helps, it screwed me over too. My brackets busted. 247 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 3: This is what we like to play on FNA right now. 248 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: It's double A and for Ben Mallor when your bracket explodes, 249 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 3: just look at the flowers memorable scene from Walking Dead. 250 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 3: If you know, you know, But at least I'm not 251 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 3: running and looking for a redo or a mulligan like. 252 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 5: This guy k ran off the bench. 253 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: I got one bracket now, granted, I donated mind to science. 254 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 3: This year, I just picked all favorites and so I 255 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: had the number one overall seed, the Dukies winning. Now 256 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 3: I may give you a bracket update with all our 257 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio brackets and let you know if I'm 258 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 3: still having a chance to beat Ben Maller.

Well, a guy who 269 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 3: could win the MVP this season, he's saying otherwise.

Someone finally admitted 295 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 3: to being in the worst video game movie of all time. 296 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 3: And that's quite a feat because there's plenty of them, 297 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 3: and I've seen a lot of them. But I do 298 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 3: want to talk about the NBA and maybe turn something 299 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 3: on its head for you that you haven't thought about before. See, 300 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 3: for years we've been hearing the NBA those players they 301 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 3: don't play defense anymore. It's mostly from Jordan fans attacking 302 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 3: this era because uh, you know that one guy Len 303 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 3: and there may be some truth to it. Guys are 304 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 3: scoring more. Is that a that's not sexual? In the 305 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 3: mid nineties and early two thousand's offense has averaged about 306 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 3: ninety six points per game. Today they average one hundred 307 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 3: and fifteen points per game. It's over nine chosen. There's 308 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 3: not that many points. So is that because teams don't 309 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 3: play defense anymore? Or hold up now, old man who 310 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: yells a clouds? Could there be other factors involved here? Well? 311 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 3: First of all, pace is up in the NBA, and 312 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 3: if you know what that means, that means they're playing faster, 313 00:17:55,359 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: a lot faster, Sonic three D fast, and that matters. 314 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: Instead of teams having ninety possessions per game, they average 315 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 3: about one hundred per game because of the higher up 316 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: tempo style of basketball they are playing. If you're playing faster, 317 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: you are invariably going to have more possessions to score 318 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 3: more points. So naturally points are going to be up. 319 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 3: In fact, in the eighties, you know showtime Lakers, run 320 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 3: and gun teams average about one hundred and ten points 321 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 3: per game. Why because they were playing at a pace 322 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 3: of about one hundred and two possessions per game, even 323 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 3: faster than today's. So why are today's team scoring one 324 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 3: hundred and fifteen points per game? Is it because they 325 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 3: just aren't playing any defense? Or could there be another 326 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 3: factor that people are conveniently ignoring to protect their childhood. 327 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,199 Speaker 3: I don't know. You know, there is something called a 328 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 3: three pointer now that is highly utilized and it's worth 329 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 3: one more point than a two. A smart mother, that's right. See, 330 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 3: in the eighties, the three pointer was more like a 331 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 3: novelty act. It was a circus. They brought it in 332 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 3: from the ABA. They averaged taking four three pointers per game. 333 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 3: And they say they averaged only four to three pointers 334 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 3: per game, and yet they were scoring one hundred and 335 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,959 Speaker 3: ten points per game. Well, that's actually kind of damning 336 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 3: if you think about it. That means they actually probably 337 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 3: weren't playing a ton of defense. If you average one 338 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 3: hundred and ten points per game without even utilizing that 339 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: three point line like houseway, you watch those old games 340 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 3: and there's really only one bad boy Pistons team, more 341 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 3: on them coming up disrupting the offensive, fast break free 342 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 3: for all that was going on, it was just them 343 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 3: doing it. Teams weren't playing a lot of great defense. 344 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 3: The numbers kind of expose it. Today, instead of averaging 345 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 3: four threes per game, they're averaging thirty seven threes per 346 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 3: game and yet only scoring five more points than they 347 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: averaged in the eighties. Huh, there's another factor, a symptom 348 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 3: of what happens with more or three pointers out there. 349 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 3: You know, guys having the ability to shoot it from 350 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 3: anywhere in today's game, asked Duco. 351 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 5: Kyle kick Ran off the bench. 352 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 3: It means those defenses have to guard a lot more 353 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 3: space on the court if guys are taking more threes. 354 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 3: In the eighties and early nineties, teams were literally lining 355 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 3: up inside the three point arc, and now they're setting 356 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 3: up their offense like as soon as they cross half court, 357 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,199 Speaker 3: you're getting high ball screens. It ain't just Steph Curry 358 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,640 Speaker 3: every team has guys that will pull off from twenty 359 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 3: eight feet. Now, if you go back and watch the 360 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 3: last dance, there's a telling cliff where Phil Jackson, who 361 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 3: I do love Phil Jackson, came back still no coaching me. 362 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 3: He had this fun end of practice little ropes course 363 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 3: type thing that we're doing to help them bond, where 364 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: everybody took a twenty eight footer. Whoever hits it first 365 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 3: is the big winner, I'll call gurry. It takes them 366 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 3: quite a few tries to knock down that shot. With 367 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 3: today's shooters, guys are knocking that down in a couple tries. 368 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 3: Like the high degree of difficulty. Shot making has never 369 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 3: been better in the NBA. The truth is it's much 370 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 3: tougher to play defense in today's game. You have to 371 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: guard more positions than ever. Bigs have to switch under 372 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 3: guards more on the perimeter. There's much more movement in 373 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 3: the half court. It's documented the scientists have been on 374 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 3: top of this for a while. That's a real thing, yes, science. 375 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 3: There's just more explosive movement even in the half court setting. 376 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 3: Guys are covering a lot more ground, running like half 377 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 3: a mile more per game over a season. It can 378 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 3: add up to like two hundred more miles, Like that's 379 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,959 Speaker 3: why guys are getting hurt so much. Maybe, oh, this 380 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 3: isn't nineties ball, dumping it down into the center and 381 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 3: let Alonzo Morning back down Patrick ewing and just watching 382 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 3: them do that over and over again. You have athletes 383 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 3: running around everywhere. Now it leads to more injuries, But 384 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 3: for my taste, it's a better game. Don't believe me 385 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 3: about the defense not being the issue, but offense is 386 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 3: actually just being much better. Now, well, I got two 387 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 3: guys that will back me up about this. One of 388 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 3: them one of my favorites ever. He may know him 389 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: the Claw Kawhi Leonard and the Klaw. In fact, his 390 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 3: bobblehead that came out earlier this week last week, Now, 391 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 3: it did feature a claw machine, which was pretty cool. 392 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 3: And then he was playing at pregame and saying, you know, 393 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: in Kawhi tone, I have to win this game. It's 394 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 3: my game. How do I not win? While playing the 395 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 3: claw machine? That's about him. So here was Kawhi last 396 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 3: year being asked about this subject. And I know the 397 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 3: guy who asked the question, and I know he was 398 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 3: trying to lead Kawhi to say, yeah, defenses just aren't 399 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 3: as good as they used to be. Guys don't care 400 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 3: about playing defense. And Kawhi is an authority US A 401 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 3: two time defensive Player of the Year. Well here's that 402 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 3: Q and A. 403 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 6: Do you think run away from do you fencing Glenn 404 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 6: Right's offense a little pit too much? 405 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 5: Nah? 406 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,360 Speaker 7: Not really? I mean at times, you know, it might 407 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 7: be teams or games, but I think the offense got 408 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 7: got a lot better. It's a lot of pace, a 409 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 7: lot of threes guys, are you know, just coming from 410 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 7: me being the defensive playerity, Uh, it's just a lot 411 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 7: of you know, six eight guys that could drip on 412 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 7: shoot threes. Now do I get to the paint that 413 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 7: is very athletic, So I think the skill level's gotten there. 414 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 7: And then at at sometimes you know, you might have 415 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 7: those nights where the team isn't as good or they're 416 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:42,040 Speaker 7: not as focused on garden and you see crazy games. 417 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 7: But now y, everybody's trying to play for sure. It 418 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 7: like I said the other day, it might be it 419 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 7: might look easier watching, but if you go out there 420 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 7: and play, you're not gonna get. 421 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 3: No easy ducky right, we almost got a Kawhi Leonard 422 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 3: laugh there he was best kind of chuckling under his breath. 423 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 3: You ain't getting no easy bucket out there. 424 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 5: Quote. 425 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 3: I think the offense has just got a lot better. 426 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 3: A lot of six to eight guys that can dribble 427 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 3: and shoot threes now and get to the paint. Guys 428 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 3: that are multiple can do a little bit of everything. 429 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 3: That was spring of twenty twenty five. Now, this came 430 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 3: out just the other day, and I think it's recently 431 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 3: from Victor wemen Yama. I couldn't get the exact date 432 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: on it. It could have been earlier. It doesn't matter. It 433 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 3: doesn't undercut my point. Here it backs it. Here's Victor 434 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 3: wemen Yama talking about the same subject matter. This is interesting. 435 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 3: What was it like coming over to America and playing 436 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 3: here in the National Basketball Association? Was it so much different? Victor? 437 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 8: I guess before I got here. It's a lot of 438 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 8: talk before I was in the Indiana, like you know, 439 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 8: when you're in the NBA about like nobody's defense anymore, 440 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 8: or like there's no defense in the NBA. I heard 441 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 8: that a lot before coming here, but it's just not true, 442 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 8: Like this is just that good. So it's and I 443 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 8: was surprised by the dedication of like the hole stuff 444 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 8: when I got here, because and I've heard that from 445 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 8: other frenchises, franchises that. 446 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: Win that Baz and we weren't winning a franchise. 447 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 8: And is the same. I mean people are dedicated and 448 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 8: people actually do guard in the India and do lots 449 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 8: of scutting defense cutting reports. 450 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 3: Now, Victor Woman Yama pretty smart guy in his third season. 451 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 3: He looks like he might eventually go down as the goat. 452 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 3: We'll talk more about the ghost standings coming up later 453 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: in the show. But he's top five in MVP and 454 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 3: he ain't five. Yeah, he just heard him again, franchises, 455 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 3: Victor Woman Yama is speaking the truth. Kawhi Leonard is 456 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 3: speaking the truth. You think Kawhi Leonard didn't go out 457 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 3: there and lie. He can't help himself. He has no idea. 458 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,239 Speaker 3: The war's going on on NBA Twitter daily about this 459 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 3: very subject. He's not on there. He doesn't care, he 460 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 3: doesn't do social media. He just tells you what he 461 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 3: thinks about it. There's way more guys that are multiple now. 462 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 3: It's not six' one six three guards that can just 463 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 3: handle the. Rock it's six to eight guys it's not 464 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 3: just point guards and shooting guards that are taking three. 465 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 3: Pointers it's. Centers the game has changed so much in 466 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 3: the amount of ground you have to cover in order 467 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 3: to compensate for how many of those guys are now 468 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 3: snipers from. Distance it's just. Different it's no shade against 469 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 3: past eras the game just evolves as things go. Along 470 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 3: you may not like. It you may think there are 471 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 3: too many three pointers taken. Now you may think it's 472 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 3: too much of the same and the offenses look too. 473 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 3: SIMILAR i would say an offense Like orlando's versus Ok 474 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 3: ces versus denvers, like they're all very, different. Intricate, yes 475 00:26:58,480 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 3: there's a lot of high pick and roll out there 476 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 3: because it's very difficult to. Guard but, hey teams are 477 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 3: averaging thirty seven three pointers a, game so it is 478 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 3: a very big shift from what we were seeing in the, 479 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 3: eighties where they were taking four to three pointers a. 480 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 3: Game it just, is and it may not be for, 481 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 3: everyone BUT i think they're doing it for a. Reason 482 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 3: it's almost like the math has changed the. Game, oh 483 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 3: you can. 484 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 2: Count good for. 485 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 3: You the smarter we got on that side with the 486 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 3: analytics in realizing, That wait a, second If i'm only 487 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 3: shooting thirty three percent from, three which is below league, 488 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 3: average which is about thirty six. Percent, now thirty three 489 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 3: percent from three is the equivalent of fifty percent from, 490 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 3: two because the three is worth. More so even Though 491 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 3: i'm shooting a lower percentage point per, possession it's still pretty. 492 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 3: High so maybe we should lean into this a little bit. 493 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 3: More and now you run into teams here and, there 494 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 3: they get hot on a certain. Night believe, ME i 495 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 3: just saw it the other. Night The Indiana pacers had 496 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 3: sixteen going up against The.
