So 36 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 4: thank you for being there for me in my happy 37 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 4: and sad days back at home in Portugal, Brazil, Korea, Ukraine. 38 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 4: I've taken you a bit all around the world throughout 39 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 4: the years. Here's my question. Jannis is currently the most 40 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 4: dominant player in the NBA, and yet I struggle to 41 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 4: watch him play too much bumping and pushing and clashing. 42 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 4: I prefer Luca Doncich's style, also a dominant player carrying 43 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 4: his team, yet cleaner, classier style what about you, guys. 44 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 4: That's from Carlos, who's currently in Switzerland, but from Lecha 45 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 4: do paul Mera, the most beautiful town in the world. Okay, 46 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 4: I have you been there, skates, it's in Portugal. I 47 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 4: have not. 48 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: It sounds nice, though, how do you say it again? 49 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 4: I guess palmyre like a milky. 50 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 2: Here's what's about this, right, didn't we not too long 51 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: ago get an email or tweet talking about how this 52 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 2: a particular person was starting to dislike Luka Doncic because 53 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: they were he was getting too similar his game to 54 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: James Harden. Dribble clang, Yeah, that's right, that's right. But 55 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: now we've got Carlos saying, oh no, he loves Lucas 56 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 2: style of play, but now it's Giannest he doesn't like 57 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: Gianness is sort of I don't know, just the pushing 58 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: in the clash. 59 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 4: And I can understand some people don't like physical play. 60 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 4: I guess, I mean if you're a basketball fan. 61 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: But Luca and Harden they are physical players. That's the 62 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: funny part to me. It's not like they're not touching guys, They're. 63 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: They're different, different body. Nobody's like honest, Yeah, I mean 64 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: the thing about that, I understand what he's saying. If 65 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: Jannis just goes for a regulation sort of dunk inside, 66 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, we've seen a lot of that, but 67 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: the thing the appeal. 68 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: So wait, he doesn't like dunks now. 69 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying maybe it's too easy. Maybe I 70 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: don't know, because with Giannis he still has that ability 71 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: for me, like he could do something freakish here, like 72 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: two steps from half court and a dunk, or like 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: when he jumped over Tim Hardaway when he pushed Julia's 74 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: randall out the way or Vince car That stuff to 75 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: me is still exciting. 76 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 77 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: But his you know, I mean some of his dunks. Sure, 78 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: then you know it's like, oh yeah, that's is he 79 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: not as sexy maybe now that we've seen it for 80 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: years and years on end. 81 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 4: He just doesn't like Shack. He doesn't like those type 82 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 4: of players. I'm guessing that Carlos from Letcher depalme Era, 83 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 4: he's probably a Christiano Ronaldo fan, just assuming he's calling 84 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: the game class or he doesn't like the mantrous physical 85 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 4: beasts and this game obviously currently today there's a lot 86 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: less Shack and a lot more Luca ish type of action. 87 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 4: But it's nice to have that little bit of balance. 88 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 4: You still need still need to be physical in the 89 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 4: NBA to be great. That's the way it is. You 90 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 4: like in the twenty ten's, like Lebron was your physical guy, 91 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 4: Durant was sort of his counterbalance, a little bit smoother tape. 92 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 4: And now we've got a Janison and before we had 93 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 4: a shock and who was his. 94 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: Ping Duncan Cam? 95 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess at the center spot. Sure, sure, sure, sure, 96 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 4: maybe a guard would probably be a better analogy. 97 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: But here here is the crazy part about this though. 98 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: Giannis is adding this three point shot. Now it's not 99 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: step backs like Luca or Harden or anything like that, 100 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 2: but it is coming around here. You know, last even 101 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: you look at his last stretch of games, he was 102 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: two for five versus Orlando. Okay, then he had a 103 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: one for four against the Clips, but four of eight 104 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 2: in Detroit, three of four against the Knicks. And you know, 105 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: they're not in the corners. We've talked about that. That's fine, 106 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 2: he shouldn't be in the corners. He's he's hitting them 107 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 2: up top though, and he's and the shot looks confident, 108 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 2: and he's obviously getting some attempts up. That's the most 109 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 2: impressive part. So it's like, yeah, there's the bully ball, 110 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 2: and there's the crazy athleticism on a fast break where 111 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: he euro steps around a guy and then dunks it. 112 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: That still blows my mind. I don't think we should 113 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: take that for granted. That's pretty impressive, just those long strides, 114 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: how he steps around guys and then still power dunks it. 115 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: But man, he's adding a little outside game there. 116 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: Now he's taking five threes a game and making thirty 117 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 3: two percent. It would be cool if he shoots forty, 118 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 3: but he's already a good enough shooter from outside that 119 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 3: teams are still gonna always give him the jumper. No 120 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,559 Speaker 3: matter how good of a shooter he becomes, they're always 121 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 3: gonna prefer seeing him outside rather than getting dunked on 122 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 3: your head. You might not like to see it, but 123 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 3: if he's playing against your team, you really don't like 124 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 3: to see it. This is what's great about the NBA. 125 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 3: There's something for everybody. I didn't like watching Shack. I 126 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: love watching Giannis. I like watching Harden and Luka Doncic. 127 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 3: I like that Ben Simmons doesn't have a jump shot. 128 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 3: Not everybody has to play the exact same. That would 129 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: be boring. Read a kid's book, everything the same, it's boring. 130 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: Everything different. That's the spice of. 131 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 2: Life, all right. Churl's a great question, though, guys. Next 132 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 2: one here from Jeremiah. Hey, gentlemen, simple question that I 133 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: haven't heard anyone else address. What happens to the Lakers. 134 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: If DeMarcus Cousins doesn't get hurt in the preseason, could 135 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 2: Boogie thrive in his role like Dwight Howard has? Would 136 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: Dwight have even been picked up? It's secretly a really 137 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: important part to the Laker's success here earlier. That's an 138 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: interesting thought experiment. I like it. I haven't heard a 139 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: ton about it. A Jeremy basically saying, now, what happens 140 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: the Laker? Is this great? Is Dwight even there? Is 141 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: he doing this thing? If Cousins doesn't get injured. 142 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: First off, I don't think he's there if DeMarcus isn't injured, 143 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: because he was he was basically signed after Boogie was 144 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: ruled out, and that if he had signed Dwight, they 145 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: would have had Jervail Davis and Boogie, so there just 146 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been any minutes there for Dwight. But would 147 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: they be different? I mean, Dwight has filled that role 148 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: perfectly in a way that I don't think Boogie would 149 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: have filled that role. Boogie's a slower guy, a bit 150 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: more methodic, I guess, whereas Dwight's athletic and he's coming 151 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: out there playing, he's also at a different stage of 152 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: his career where Dwight really really wants to be relevant 153 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: in the league again, and accepting of that he is 154 00:07:58,640 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: now a role player. 155 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 2: Would not be playing only twenty minutes a game and 156 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: only getting three point seven shots exactly. I'll guarantee that. Yes, 157 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: So that's gonna change the dynamic of your team. Now, 158 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: he's gonna help you in other ways that Dway can't do. 159 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: Sure. 160 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: But in terms of the Lakers being the surprise sort 161 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: of defensive juggernaut of the season so far, yeah, that's 162 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 2: I don't think that's as strong as it would be if. 163 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: Cousins isn't there, would they be the same record? I mean, 164 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: who knows, Because they've it's not exactly. I mean, they've 165 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: been so well bounced, They've had so many contributions across 166 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: their rosta. But I think in some ways it's been 167 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: in a lot of wise, it's been a blessing in 168 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: disguise for the Lakers and for dwy. 169 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, they're getting basically thirty six minutes of 170 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: center play. Now that is the exact same JaVale McGee 171 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 3: and Dwight they're not the exact same guy, but they're 172 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 3: doing the same things. They're rolling to their rim, they're 173 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 3: blocking shots at the rim, and they're rebounding and trying 174 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 3: to play defense. 175 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 2: That's it. 176 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 3: If DeMarcus Cousins is coming off the bench, you're giving 177 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: him the ball a lot more to run your second unit, 178 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 3: to be a guy making plays. They don't just have 179 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: necessarily if he's if Boogie's around, they don't necessarily the 180 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 3: guy who just wants to run back and forth and 181 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 3: be a big guy. The team would be different, maybe 182 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: they would be worse, but I mean, they still did 183 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: get Anthony Davis. That's still the big reason why they're 184 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 3: a great defensive team. But when you could throw Dwight, 185 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 3: Davis and Lebron out there, that's a lot of size, 186 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 3: all guys who can move. I don't know, I don't know. 187 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 3: It still throws me off to see Boogie sitting on 188 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 3: the sideline the Lakers just cheering. You're like, oh, yeah, 189 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 3: he is a Laker. 190 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I guess the rebuttal to that would be DeMarcus 191 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: Cousins did play well in a limited role with the 192 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 4: Golden State Warriors, but that was a starter's role. And 193 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 4: I don't think if you have Javail because they sign 194 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 4: him really on in the offseason, and then you have 195 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 4: DeMarcus and you have Anthony Davis, who you definitely don't sign, 196 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 4: Dwight no chance, and DeMarcus just I don't think you'd 197 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 4: like coming off the bench. I think Dwight has been obviously, 198 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 4: he has been phenomenal. I think they are a couple 199 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 4: of wins worse if he's not there. I think they 200 00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 4: lose a couple of games because their bench just doesn't 201 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 4: pick it up. He has been the difference. I know 202 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 4: they go and win the at the end of the 203 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 4: games no matter what, because Ad and uh Lebron are 204 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 4: out there. But I don't know if they have as 205 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 4: good a position in the fourth quarter without the Dwight 206 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 4: slash Caruso Ben shooting. 207 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting. Would we have the Lakers storylines of 208 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 2: sort of some inner turmoil if Cousins, let's say, wasn't 209 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 2: happy with his role or the minutes he was getting, 210 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 2: or like yeah, the again, you know, trying to work 211 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 2: the Ad Cousins thing like they did with the Pelican, 212 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: Like yeah, it's it's fascinating because there's been nothing out 213 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: of Lakers camp, Like there's been no bumps on the road, 214 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: which is shocking, honestly for a team, a Lebron team, 215 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 2: specifically in a new coach with a Lebron and in 216 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: the bright lights of LA there's been nothing. 217 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: One of the ones, even Rondo in the mix kind 218 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: of vocal in like hey, we're a family, we stick together, 219 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 1: we support each other, like you know, a guy who 220 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: has had a check had passed. Is almost like, don't 221 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: anyone ruin this? Okay, Yeah, abody. 222 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: To bring them together, Like I'd like being clear, I 223 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 2: don't think like we're not trying to like bury Cousins here. 224 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: It's not like they couldn't have one of the best 225 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: records in the league if Cousins is starting and playing 226 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 2: and having a role, I don't think that's the case. 227 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 2: But I don't know if it would be. I'm with tasks. 228 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: I think there may be some less wins just because 229 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 2: you'd be taking it'd be a little more difficult to 230 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: maybe find the right you know, they're starting five and 231 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 2: then the role players and stuff like that. 232 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 4: All right, next question here, So my brother and I 233 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 4: are both big fans of the show and are getting 234 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 4: each other something to read for Christmas this year. In 235 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 4: the past we've exchanged the books Breaks of the Game, 236 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 4: Basketball and other things and the Big Book of Basketball. 237 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 4: Is there anything that you guys would recommend to read 238 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 4: this year aside from a subscription to The Athletic of course, 239 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 4: the Athletic dot com slash no dunks if you want 240 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 4: a deal that's from Sean in Portland. What are you reading? 241 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: I've got a good one actually in the midst of 242 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: reading it right now. It's called NBA Jam. It's from 243 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 2: Boss Fight Books. Five dollars download, I believe, very very cheap. 244 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: But the author, Rayon Ali, it's he did a great 245 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 2: job on this. I'm flying through. It's not a huge 246 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: on a gigantic book, but it's exploring the history and 247 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 2: the culture of the hit arcade game. Of course, NBA Jam. 248 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 2: I'm sure all of our listeners know what the heck 249 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 2: I'm talking about. It's about the people who made it 250 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: sort of. It's it's sudden rise and success that exploded 251 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 2: onto the scene and then sort of what happened with 252 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: the companies and the people after it sort of started 253 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: to tail off. It's fascinating. You can go to TinyURL 254 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 2: dot com slash NBA jam book if you want to 255 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: get it, I think, because you can digitally download it. 256 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 2: I have the physical hard copy. Oh yeah, I'm loving it. 257 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 2: It's it's fascinating. So that's my suggestion, NBA jam again 258 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 2: through Boss Fight books and they it's a big series, right, 259 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: Like there's all these authors writing about other video games 260 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: I've seen. I'm actually in tried. Yeah, I'm intrigued about. 261 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: There's a couple of about Super Mario Brothers. Like Super 262 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 2: Mario Brothers two is a fascinating game, and I'm sure 263 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 2: there's quite the story to that, how different it is 264 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 2: from one and three specifically, But yeah, check that out, 265 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 2: NBA jam. It's awesome. 266 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: A book I have read which I really enjoyed is 267 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: on Drazen Petrovich's life by Todd Cepher. I believe that 268 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: he pronounce his name. Really good book about Drasen, who 269 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: was a phenomenon as a kid fifteen year old, he 270 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: started playing professionally, probably not dissimilar to sort of the 271 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: path Luca has taken to get where he is right now. 272 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: Made it to the NBA, to the NBA Drazen, but 273 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: things didn't work out in Portland, moved to New Jersey, 274 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: was really starting to come along and live up to 275 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: the expectations before he was tragically killed in a car accident. 276 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: But really a fascinating look at his life as a 277 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: young player, and you know, playing for Croatia as a 278 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: star and then trying to make the adjustment in the 279 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: late eighties early nineties in the US, which was certainly 280 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: a lot different to the things the way things are now, 281 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: certainly no social media and things like that, and draws 282 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 1: and had a big adjustment to Mike, but a very 283 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: very interesting rate, fun rate, and you know, obviously the 284 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,079 Speaker 1: story it's a sad story in the end, but a 285 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: well written book. And I really enjoyed it. So that's 286 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: a nice little present. 287 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, that's funny you say Drawsen. It goes 288 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 2: there's a part in the NBA jam book because Drawsen 289 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: was originally in the first game, the first arcade they 290 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 2: had finished making it, he's in it. Then he had died, 291 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 2: the game had already shipped, and there was this weird 292 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 2: sort of story that I guess it was maybe at 293 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: midway where they made the games, but that the the 294 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: game would like sort of glitch and yell out like Petrovitch, 295 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: it's like this really weird like as it's like this 296 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 2: haunted thing. It's very very strange. Yeah. Nice, So something 297 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: weird going on with the software or something and reminded 298 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: me of that. But that book does sound good, Petrovitch. 299 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 3: Best book I consumed this year was called The Order 300 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: of Time by Italian astrophysicist Carlo Rovelli. It's about physics, 301 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: it's about philosophy, it's about time obviously, and if it 302 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 3: even exists. Did you know that a clock closer to 303 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: the Earth at sea level takes much slower than a 304 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 3: clock at the top of Mount Everest, which clock is right, 305 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 3: Neither time doesn't exist. I say consumed because I listened 306 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 3: to the audiobook read by Benedict's cumber Bat. Whoo, I'm 307 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 3: in just for that exactly right. When you hear this 308 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 3: guy talking science, it literally feels like you're just sitting 309 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: down in doctor Strange's talking to you, like explaining how 310 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 3: to travel through time. I listened to it on a 311 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 3: flight I think, out to San Francisco. It's pretty short. 312 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 3: I think it was like a six hour, six hour 313 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 3: audio book, and it was great. It will just literally 314 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 3: blow your mind. 315 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 2: I've never done the audio book. I am you love 316 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: a podcast, man, Look, yeah, I listened to them when 317 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: I go running. I'm obviously yeah, I got the time 318 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 2: to do it. I've just never never taken that first 319 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 2: step to it. 320 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 3: Hey, man, time doesn't exist, So you should listen to 321 00:15:59,120 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 3: this book. 322 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: All right, I'll give it a go one of these days. 323 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 4: I know a couple of you guys have read this book. 324 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 4: But Sprawlball by Kirk Goldsbury, Yeah, came out earlier this year. 325 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 4: Go get it.

I wanted to 446 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: look for a guy who was, you know, all Star 447 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: and things like that. 448 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 2: But okay, who's so Andre? 449 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: So I'm going with Tracy McGrady, right, Okay, each that's rid. 450 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: But listen, his career pretty much ended at twenty eight 451 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: years old in two thousand and eight. No playoff success, 452 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: yeah right, no, so no big playoff moments. His biggest 453 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: moment is one of those ones like against the Spurs 454 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: of thirteen and thirty five. 455 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were just talking about it. 456 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: He's kind of been. I think people go, oh, yeah, 457 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: that guy could donk, but I don't think they realized 458 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 1: how good he was, I mean All Star, All NBA player, 459 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: I mean twenty eight, basically his career ended. I know 460 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: he played for a couple more seasons, but he bounced around. 461 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 2: I hear you. I mean you're debating whether I'm twenty 462 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 2: year old. 463 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: Wuld know That's what I'm saying. Yeah, but if you're 464 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: if you're twenty now, right, he's kind of been irrelevant 465 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: from the league for over ten years, so when you 466 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: were seven or eight. 467 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 2: He's still he still is in Yeah, but him. 468 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: On the TV. But that's not the same as like 469 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: knowing what type of player might as pants. 470 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 3: That's one of the biggest moments for Tracy in the 471 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 3: past few years. 472 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 4: That's what I mean. 473 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 2: Which other consort of convincing which other which other star player? 474 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 1: Because another guy I had was like was Ben Wallace 475 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: and Chauncey Billins. 476 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 2: But I'll guarantee you less people know Chauncey Billup. Yea, 477 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: they're a younger fan than Trace mcgreen. 478 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: On finals MVP multiple All Star went to the conference finals, 479 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: lots of known as mister big shot like he has 480 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: those moments, Whereas Tracy McGrady, his playoff success is more 481 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: about the fact that he never got out of the 482 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: first round. 483 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 4: So I mean, hear heard you like to bend the rules. 484 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 4: You know what, It's not bad at all. People do 485 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 4: forget Tracey McGrady and how good he was at his peak. 486 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 4: That's that's fair. Oh fair because he has no playoff success. 487 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 4: That's a big part of it, I think. And he's 488 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 4: now he's on the TV. Chncy Bilps also on the TV. 489 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 4: Yeah that's true. 490 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 2: But would you agree that, I don't know, an eighteen 491 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 2: year old basketball fan is going to be more likely 492 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 2: to know Tracey McGrady than Chuncy BIPs, I think, so. 493 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 4: I agree with Yeah, yeah, i'd agree with that because alone, 494 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 4: that doesn't make him less known. Though to me, like 495 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 4: it doesn't make a I don't know, they're both, I agree, 496 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 4: I mean least least got a good point about Tracey McGrady. 497 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: I tried to go sort of. I guess, yeah, they're 498 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 2: route that Trey was more thinking. I'm going, and I 499 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 2: think he was a better Oh he may have been 500 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: a better player than maybe Andre Miller or an Anton Jamison. 501 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 2: You guys tell me Andre Kirolenko. 502 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I wrote him down to Okay, Carol. 503 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: Anko was awesome. He was because he was an awesome 504 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: defensive player. He was three time All Defense defensive teams, 505 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 2: you know, one time All Star. But he was he'd 506 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 2: be fun in today's game, no doubt it was. He 507 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: was good. And I don't think a ton of people 508 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: younger now probably know who Karlinko. Playing the Jazz regad 509 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 2: junk of his career too, probably goes against him, maybe 510 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: a little bit. 511 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: He led the league has a small forward with three 512 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 4: point three blocks per season. 513 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 2: That's crazy. 514 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, and also injuries chopped him down. 515 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 516 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good one. I like that. 517 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 2: Anyone else on your list said there, I got what about? Uh, 518 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 2: this is a crazy one. I actually thought you may 519 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 2: say it. Not Andre Miller. Brad Miller. 520 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was two time All Star, was very well 521 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 3: the guy to make an All Star or the first 522 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 3: guy to make an All Star Game in one conference 523 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 3: and then make it the next year for the other conference. 524 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 3: Put him in the Hall of Fame with regards to 525 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: Brad's he's one of the best brads out there. Yeah, 526 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 3: Andre Miller, you know, I thought he was good, but uh, 527 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 3: he wasn't that great. His best season he was sixteen points, 528 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 3: ten assists. He's got a three year old highlight mix 529 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 3: on the NBA's YouTube page. It has ninety seven thousand views. 530 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,439 Speaker 3: So people don't know who Andre Miller is because the 531 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 3: highlights they ain't sexy. He's got like five half court 532 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 3: shots where he's chuck it up like we'll throw anything 533 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 3: in there, because everything else was just like a very 534 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 3: fundamental bounce pass into the post. 535 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: You said, though, because you were doing the research yesterday 536 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 2: here in the office, that Andre Miller is this correct 537 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 2: that he led that sort of decade two thousand to 538 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,919 Speaker 2: twenty ten, that time period, at least in games played. 539 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 3: Most games played, he had like a super long streak 540 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 3: at one point that got snapped because remember he like 541 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 3: smashed into Blake Griffin at that time, like he got 542 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 3: superheated and just smashed into him on a fast break 543 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 3: and knocked him down. So he got suspended. 544 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I actually. 545 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 2: Don't remember that. That's what That's what snapped the streak. 546 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: Was it the iron Man Streak video? 547 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 4: It was? It was a real bull rush went. 548 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 3: For sure, and he was nearly on the fifty points 549 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 3: with no threes club fifty two points out of nowhere, 550 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 3: Andre Miller, but one for one from Downtown. 551 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 4: I like a lot of those Brad Miller, a lot 552 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 4: of those early decade kings can join this list. Like 553 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 4: Pajo Stojakovic, I think could be aware. I think he was, 554 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 4: you know, he was a special guy, squeaked in a 555 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 4: title at the end there with the mass, but he 556 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 4: wasn't really playing for them. 557 00:25:58,920 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 1: Uh. 558 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 559 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: It's difficult for us to answer this because that's our 560 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 2: wee that era. Yeah, well that's when we yeah started 561 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 2: the show, of course, is when we're you know, not 562 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 2: at our peak fandom by any means, but being younger. 563 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 2: And that's why you're like, oh, Paige's Stakovich, Carole Anko. Yeah, 564 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: these guys were great. 565 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 4: At the time. 566 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 2: We loved them at the time and like to remove yourself. 567 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 4: I guess that's true. That's for you next one. 568 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: Hey, guys, longtime listener and fan loving the No Dunks podcast. 569 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 2: This season, I feel like the rise of some stars 570 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 2: have made others disappear. For example, I never heard anybody 571 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: talk about Demarta Rosen. Now when he was in Toronto, 572 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 2: people would always talk about him. They're talking about his 573 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 2: playoff failures. Probably now are there other players that we 574 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 2: have forgotten about this season? That's from Thomas in France. 575 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 2: I mean, one, do you agree with the that DeRozan point? 576 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 2: Is it? Is it fair that we don't sort of 577 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 2: talk about him all that much? 578 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: I struggling his names linked? 579 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, just averaging twenty one points and people, Yeah, 580 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 4: no one's talking. 581 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: About No, that's true. And then who else would you 582 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 2: maybe add to that list to DeRozan? Yeah, DeRozan is 583 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 2: having like a damn near identical season to last year 584 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: with the Spurs. He's been even more efficient. But you're right, 585 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: we don't talk about a much outside of rumors. But 586 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 2: who else you got? 587 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm going with the guy here it out? Yeah, well 588 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: this guy. Whenever we hear about this team, we only 589 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 1: hear about one player, and it's not this guy, good 590 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: reliable player who signed a big contract in the off 591 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 1: season with him Valan Junis. 592 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 2: I was not expecting that answer from you, But because 593 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: they're not right, it's. 594 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: All morn that's all you hear about. And if he's out, 595 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: then no one talks about the grislies and and Jonics 596 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: is putting up solid numbers, not quite the same as 597 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: he put up in his half a season there with 598 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: Memphis last season, but he's playing a lot. You know, 599 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: he's a good solid players fourteen and ten. Yeah, but 600 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: you know if you see or heard him or listen 601 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: to the only. 602 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 3: Time we've talked about him this year is he didn't 603 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 3: get a ring from his old team. 604 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, basically, good one, A good one. 605 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 2: Uh, you may want to ear muffs. I know you 606 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: got the canton right now. 607 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: I think I know how you're gonna say. 608 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 2: Oh, it's Bradley Bale. My man, it's Bradley Beal for sure. 609 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 2: He's averaging twenty eight points per game, seven assists per game. 610 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 2: We barely mentioned him. I mean he's had a couple well, 611 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 2: he's had like three or four forty plus point games. 612 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, he had back to back forty four as. 613 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 2: I think he sort of like when he does it, 614 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 2: we're like huh yeah, we look over there, We're like, oh, yeah, 615 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 2: that's a nice box score. All right, cool, back to 616 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 2: real basketball. I mean he I hate to say it, Lee, 617 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 2: he's turned into It's ironic because you and I've had 618 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 2: this going for a long time. He is now Devin Booker. 619 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: He has literally turned now into Devin Booker. I'm just 620 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: saying he's a great player. He's on a crap team 621 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 2: and no one cares. Yep, it's it's flipped. 622 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: Does he go to the Old Star Game this year? 623 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. 624 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: I think probably because he think he will twenty eight 625 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: and seven a lot, Yeah I know, but he's still 626 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: like fifth in the league in scoring something like that. 627 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: But a big thing with those forty plus point games 628 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: is like, also, he wasn't winning them half the time. Yeah, 629 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 2: you know, It's like I think he's got like a 630 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 2: one to three record in those games. 631 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: So yeah, he'll probably have a Devin Booker seventy points. 632 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 3: Right they're putting up the Wizards score a ton. They 633 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 3: don't care about playing defense, so come March, why not 634 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 3: go for a crazy number? Similar sort of guy. Also 635 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 3: a team that was compared to him. We bring up 636 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: the team all the time, the Portland Trailblazers. We never 637 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 3: talk about Damian Lillard. Twenty seven points, a game career high, 638 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 3: seven assists, best percentage ever from the floor, his highest 639 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 3: shooting true shooting percentage ever. He is great. Damian Lillard 640 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 3: is not the reason the Blazers are bad, But you 641 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 3: talk about everything else on the Blazers. Should they trade CJ. McCollum. 642 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 3: Mellow's back. What's going on with the on whiteside? Usuf 643 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 3: Nurkic is coming back. Well, Anthony Tolliver, he started, Mario 644 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 3: Hazonya he plays sometimes, Anthony Simons. You'll talk about everybody 645 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 3: on the Blazers, but Lillard's just ticking along. Twenty seven 646 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: and seven, No big deal. 647 00:29:58,320 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 2: Good one. 648 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, he kind of flew under the rain or even 649 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 4: early when he was he was like second or third 650 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 4: in the league in scoring for a while and he 651 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 4: was going for like thirty two thirty three game. Yeah, 652 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 4: I don't know why we're just taken for granted. I 653 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 4: guess it's weird. Let's go back to the East. It's 654 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 4: a lot of fun here at the bottom. As you said, 655 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 4: maybe Bradley Beal gets in the All Star Game. Trey 656 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 4: Young is right. I don't think both Trey Young and 657 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 4: Bradley Beal get in the All Star Game. That's that's 658 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 4: a strange one. You know, they don't really take coaches 659 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 4: don't usually take players from losing teams. They're both losing, losing, 660 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 4: losing a lot, so one of those guys is going 661 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 4: to be disappointed. 662 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think made it last year on a 663 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 2: bad team. 664 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 4: He did last year too, but yeah, yeah, but only 665 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 4: it seems like only one big loser gets in. Right. 666 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 2: Oh, No, I'm agreeing with you, and which is why 667 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: my vote will probably yeah, not my vote, but I 668 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: think the coaches will lean towards a Bradley Beal again. 669 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna be disappointing for Trey. He's gonna be Yeah, 670 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 4: I hadn't really thought about it. I guess our our 671 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 4: French emailer here, Thomas from France, probably knows about Evan 672 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 4: Fourgnier's season, but is having a good season. Yeah, nobody 673 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 4: talks about him. He's over twenty a game and he's 674 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 4: been the go to guy with Nikolovucevic out in Orlando 675 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 4: and they've been winning more with Evan Fournier sort of 676 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 4: more as their go to guy. Empty stats Lee maybe probably. Yeah. 677 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 2: While we were while we were talking about this sort 678 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: of East All Star selections, we made we made some 679 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 2: some waves there on Twitter. We were talking about the 680 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 2: Bucks and we gotten into the whole thing, like how 681 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 2: many Bucks are gonna make the All Star team? Like 682 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: is Middleton gonna make again? Johnest obviously he's gonna be 683 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 2: voted in he's gonna be the captain for crying out loud, 684 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 2: but will yeah, will Middleton be there? And and we 685 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 2: were just throwing it around on the fly and uh, 686 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: well some of some Bucks Twitter fans grabbed a hold 687 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 2: of it, and uh, you know they're there and wisely 688 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 2: pointing out, hey, he's going to be there because yeah, 689 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 2: his minutes are down, so his numbers are down, but 690 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 2: like his efficiency is still there, is you know, per 691 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 2: one hundred posessions is still there. The team's obviously a juggernaut. 692 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 2: He made it last year. When you make it again, 693 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 2: I think it's fair. I actually, the more I think 694 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 2: about it, I do think he will be selected again 695 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: from the coaches. But like now, like it's like I 696 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 2: almost want to start, like, you know, getting into the 697 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 2: All Star vibe. The All Star Game Alwaukee mob tells 698 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: got me thinking now because we're like, how many heat 699 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: guys make it? Okay, how many Bucks? How many Raptors 700 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 2: maybe make it? You know, how many Sixers make it? 701 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: I mean if the Bucks a you know, six seven 702 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: games on top of the East, then they absolutely yeah. 703 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 2: And it will be Middleton. Yeah, I don't see. I 704 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 2: don't think it's going to be a Brook. I don't 705 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 2: think it's going to be a blood so. 706 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, and hopefully calm actual All Star time, he won't 707 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 3: have just been coming off of two weeks on the shof. 708 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 3: That's the other thing too. It was a little upsy 709 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 3: downs before he got hurt. Then it's kind of been 710 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 3: a slow start since he got back. So you know, 711 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 3: once he's at thirty something game, then surely he'll be 712 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 3: back in the mix. 713 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, because of convention that because All Star coaches always 714 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 4: pick a second guy from the first place team, he'll 715 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 4: probably make it. But I think this goes back to 716 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 4: last year. Trey made this point last year and Chris 717 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 4: Midleton was picked at the end of the roster. Would 718 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 4: you rather have him as an All Star player who 719 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 4: is a very good player you can rely on. I'd 720 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 4: give Chris Middleton the ball in every situation, or a 721 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,480 Speaker 4: guy like Trey Young. You'd probably pick Trey Young. You'd 722 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 4: probably pick Bradley beal right, It's just that he's on 723 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 4: the number one team, so he's gonna get there. Why 724 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 4: can't it be like Lebron and the Moe Williams situation 725 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 4: in two thousand and nine where they were incredible going 726 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 4: into the All Star break and Mo Williams wasn't picked 727 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 4: to the All Star team, but somebody got injured. I 728 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 4: think it was Chris Bosh got injured and they said, Okay, 729 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 4: Mo Williams, you're on the team now. Because your team 730 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 4: is forty one and eleven, we'll put you on there. 731 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 4: He's not a There're sexy names out there that you'd 732 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 4: rather have taking shots on that team, or not just 733 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 4: at an All Star game, but on a real team. 734 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, it's that's all fair. Let's just do 735 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 2: this though, Joannis and Middleton, let's say they both make it. 736 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 2: So that's two bucks. Now we're down to ten guys 737 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 2: in the East. Okay, Embiid and Simmons. Will they both 738 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 2: be All Stars again? 739 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 3: I would guess yeah. 740 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: I sort of do too, probably. 741 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 2: Okay, let's just say they are. For the story here, 742 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler, yes, I think Bam is going to make it. 743 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 2: As a coach of selection is a big I personally do. Okay, Okay, 744 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 2: let's go see some rolling of the eyes a little Soakam, Yes, Okay, 745 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,239 Speaker 2: the question we and we threw it in there. How 746 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 2: many raps make it? Let's just say it's just Sam right, now, okay, 747 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 2: maybe let's say no Lowry or Novample Kemba, Yes, yeah, 748 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 2: then how many other Celtics make it? That's good, that's fascinating, 749 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 2: one of, one of and Brown. 750 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 751 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 2: And then and then it is like, because there's no 752 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 2: Oladipo to worry about, but some bonus has been really 753 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 2: good for the Pacers. It feels like they'll have a 754 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: selection brocked it right, wow, oh my goodness. And then 755 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 2: he's like, you know your bills and you're Trey Young's 756 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 2: and anyone else. 757 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 3: I say that Kyrie Irving, like, I mean, he's the 758 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 3: most famous player on the nets. Could be voted yeah, 759 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 3: it could definitely be voted in. But they've been playing 760 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 3: better with Spencer Dinwiddie as their starters. Maybe he gets 761 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,959 Speaker 3: a little a little tabby tab Yeah. 762 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 4: Well, I've also overlooked Spencer Dinwiddi this year, even though 763 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 4: you know he has been phenomenal. His numbers are very 764 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 4: good too. 765 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 766 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, over twenty a game. 767 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: Trey Young, I mean he's fourth in scoring, so and 768 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: you know the All Star Game doesn't always take into 769 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 1: account wins, of course, Yeah, twenty nine points on forty 770 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 1: six from three so he's. 771 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 2: And and then there's a there's a drumming case to 772 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 2: be made. Obviously you know he's made it before. They 773 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 2: need some big sometimes tell me. 774 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 3: You're gonna say Davonte Graham, tell me you're going to 775 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 3: say it. I mean, we're getting down, We're getting down 776 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 3: into the standings. Here, we're saying, if Andre Drummond has 777 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 3: a case, might as well make a case for Davonte. 778 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 2: Well, I was gonna say, maybe we could see teams 779 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 2: like Orlando, Detroit, Charlotte, the Bulls, Cleveland, and the Knicks 780 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 2: not having all star representatives. 781 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: Well definitely not like yeah, oh. 782 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,760 Speaker 2: Talking all star here on December eleven? 783 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 3: Who are these guys? 784 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 4: Man? Let's keep next question here? Suh, no dunkers. 785 00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: S H. 786 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 4: Doesn't care to throw in the p I wish ad 787 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 4: war number eighty instead of three, eighty instead of three. 788 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 4: Whose jersey number would you like to forcefully change? Could 789 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 4: because of his name, nickname, stats, general, vibe whatever, peace 790 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:44,320 Speaker 4: that's from Samer. 791 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: Okay, Marcus Smart for the Boston Celtics, where his number 792 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: thirty six, he should change it to eighty six, right 793 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: because Maxwell Smart from Get Smart was age in eighty 794 00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: six and he's also already got taco full right, he's 795 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 1: Agent ninety nine. He wears number ninety nine. 796 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 2: This is good. 797 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a timely And remember the little buzzy 798 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: getting Remember thee This was a top question he had. 799 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: Remember when Marcus Smut's buzzer batter gainst the King's roomed down? 800 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: I do he missed it by that much? 801 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 3: Just gonna assume that's a get smart, right, I know that. 802 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 3: Oh wow, there you go, say I missed it. 803 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 4: We were talking about people forgetting about Tracy mcgrade twelve 804 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 4: years ago, and he played basketball. This show was on 805 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 4: in the sixties. Yeah, before I was born. 806 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: He made into Sunbury. 807 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 3: I used to watch it, but they read they redid. 808 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 1: I think Anne Hathaway was that Agent ninety nine. 809 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 4: She was with Steve Carrell. 810 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 3: All right, true, this is good, this is That was 811 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 3: a good answer, your best. I want to change Aaron 812 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 3: Baines's number. He's number forty six, just a weird number. 813 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 3: That to me is a picture's number. I think Andy 814 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 3: Pettitt was number forty six. Give him ninety nine. Just 815 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 3: throwing his body around, smashing into guys. I know you 816 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 3: might associate it with Wayne Gretzky as a Canadian. But 817 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 3: to me, it's like a defensive end, Like a defensive 818 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 3: end would wear number ninety nine. And Aaron Baines seems 819 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 3: like he's just too tough to be wearing a pitcher's number. 820 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 3: I don't know, okay, I. 821 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 2: Well, I was gonna say, I actually don't know the players, 822 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,439 Speaker 2: but I have the idea, the concept. Okay, I want 823 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 2: two teammates, and it would it'd be best if they 824 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 2: were like sort of like wild cards or hot heads 825 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 2: or even temper boys to wear number eight and number 826 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: eighty eight, so we could call them the crazy eights. 827 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 2: So I want two sort of wild guys who well, 828 00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 2: there's another reference for you. One of the best years 829 00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 2: to air number eight and number eighty eight. That's what 830 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 2: I want. And then I got a little trivia for you. 831 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 3: I think we actually got a perfect suggestion for those 832 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 3: two guys. Number eight, bug Dan Bogdanovic, number eighty eight, 833 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 3: Pneumonia be Alitza. Those could be some wild and crazy. 834 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's funny. Asked that because I was going 835 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 2: to say, could you I hope you're not looking at it, 836 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 2: but could you name the six NBA players to have 837 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 2: worn number eighty eight. You said Bills that would have 838 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 2: got Yeah, that's correct. With the Blazers for a while, 839 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 2: there's about ale. Wow, that's a hell of a pole. 840 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 2: My man, that's a hell of a pole. 841 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: I think Jay Crowd is always ninety nine. 842 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Eric Lindross, Yeah, definitely Eric. I think Eric 843 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 3: Lendross is better than brett Lin Dross. 844 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I'll give you this. One guy plays in the 845 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 2: league right now. He plays for I'll give you he 846 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 2: plays for the Pacers. He's got a crazy caul. Yeah, 847 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: that's right, Goga two more. The one is very very difficult. 848 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 2: He played for the Lakers. He played one game for 849 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 2: the Lakers in twenty twelve. You're very unlikely going to 850 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 2: get it. Christian Ayanga. But surprised somebody said this one 851 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 2: because well maybe not, because I did forget for a second. 852 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,720 Speaker 2: He's maybe one of the most famous No it's not Kobe, 853 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: but maybe one of the most famous eights in history. 854 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 2: Walker two thousand and five Celtics. 855 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 1: Were eight because someone else that number, right, didn't they? 856 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 2: There you go, Thanks for playing guys. 857 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 4: That was a lot of fun. I wanted to trade 858 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,720 Speaker 4: or change Dwight Howard's thirty nine earlier this season because 859 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 4: the same reason is Trey just it's not a basketball number. 860 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 4: There just haven't been many guys who've worn thirty nine. 861 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 4: We actually put it up on our on our tweets. 862 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 4: We were talking to you about best thirty nine's and 863 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 4: sports ever. Dominic Hashek was a great one. Greg Oster Tech, 864 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,839 Speaker 4: Dave Parker, who is the football guy here? 865 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 3: I don't even know Mary Zonka? 866 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 4: What is that? What is that? Get smart reference? It's 867 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 4: like he's playing in the seventies. This guy, no idea 868 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 4: who exactly? But but Dwight has won me over, so 869 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 4: that's cool. Kevin Knox, I think has to change his 870 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 4: number though with the Knicks. He's got to go to 871 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 4: double zero. It's a restart for him. It hasn't been 872 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 4: a good start in a second year only and things 873 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 4: have just fallen off, so drastically, go to the double zero. 874 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 4: I got zero minutes in high school, that sort of mentality. 875 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 4: Get back to it, man, get back Kevin Knox. 876 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 2: Something off of that, you know, Speaking of the double zero, 877 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 2: do you think we're gonna start seeing I don't even 878 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 2: know if it's actually technically illegal, but like six. 879 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,839 Speaker 4: And O three that's illegal and oh nine. 880 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know what's funny They allowed it back 881 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 2: in the fifties. I think the Rochester Royals because if 882 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 2: you look on Basketball Reference uniform numbers, you can look 883 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 2: on the drop down list there's an O three instead 884 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 2: of just a three, and there's an O seven, and 885 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 2: there's an O nine, and the only ones under them 886 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 2: are like these players in the fifties for the Royals. 887 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 2: So they did it. At one point it was I 888 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 2: guess legal for a second. 889 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 4: This is too hard to signal to the scorers stable, 890 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 4: how do you do in seven? It's too hard. I'm 891 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 4: out of here. 892 00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think we're gonna see it one really, 893 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,439 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we already got double zero. Come on, how's 894 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 2: that much different? 895 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 4: I hear you? 896 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, our next one. As a Bulls fan, 897 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,360 Speaker 2: I was stoked to see Derek Rose hit that awesome 898 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 2: game winner against the Pelicans this week. It feels so 899 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 2: good that he's relevant again, and it got me thinking 900 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,400 Speaker 2: how much I would love to see him retire on 901 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 2: the Bulls roster. My question, if Rose continues playing above 902 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 2: average for a few more years, where do you rank 903 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 2: him as a Hall of Fame candidate. There isn't a 904 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 2: single MVP to miss out of all the eligible players, 905 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: but I always assumed Rose could be the first due 906 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 2: to the injuries that cut his prime short without much 907 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 2: playoff success. So what's Rose got to do to make 908 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,280 Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame? That's from John oh in Australia. 909 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: We tease this question earlier in the World week on 910 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:01,919 Speaker 2: No Dunks. So here it is. 911 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 4: JOHNO also teased it on Twitter. He teased the tease. 912 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 4: He went on Twitter and said, I have heard from 913 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 4: a podcast that my email is going to be on 914 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 4: a podcast. Here it is. This is a great story 915 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 4: for Derek Ross, the way he's come back. We've had 916 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:24,280 Speaker 4: this question prior to prior to his resurgence. The idea 917 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 4: was there's no chance that he's going to make the 918 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame. He would be the first MVP to 919 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 4: miss out on the Hall of Fame. I think he 920 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 4: can get there. 921 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: The thing is, I think I think with him putting 922 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: out these numbers in Detroit, you know, it helps his 923 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: case to build his stats, but I think he needs 924 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: to be almost in a Dwight. 925 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 2: Situation, you need some playoff. 926 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: Yes can if he can piggyback onto a team and 927 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 1: maybe win a couple of championships. 928 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 2: That's strength you need him to become like Spot. 929 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're just putting up numbers, numbers on the 930 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: team that you know misses the playoff, who doesn't even 931 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, don't make any noise. 932 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 4: I don't think that matters. I think he's had enough success. 933 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 4: He's gotten to the Eastern Conference finals. He needs to 934 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,760 Speaker 4: put up points to get to you know, fifteen thousand 935 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 4: at least would be nice. And he can do that 936 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 4: the way he's putting up a thousand points a year recently, 937 00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 4: it wouldn't be that hard. At thirty one, I think 938 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,280 Speaker 4: he can get to that number. But he's an MVP. 939 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 4: There's been plenty of guys who haven't had even that 940 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 4: much playoff success, which isn't a lot. But also the 941 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 4: MVP gets him there, I think with a decent number. 942 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 2: I don't know what is he three time? Also he 943 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,399 Speaker 2: was only one time All NBA. Yeah. 944 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 3: That's the thing to me is he's kind of the 945 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 3: new Grant Hill, where he had a hot start, then 946 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 3: basically missed the prime of his career and has now 947 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 3: remade himself as the good VET guy who is like 948 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:44,919 Speaker 3: a six man score. You know, Grant Hill just became 949 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,239 Speaker 3: a solid player and extended his career for a long 950 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,319 Speaker 3: long time. The thing with Grant Hill, though, is that 951 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 3: a he had massive college success yep. Also had a 952 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 3: huge run with the Pistons before he got hurt with 953 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 3: the Magic. He had seven seasons with the Pistons. It 954 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 3: was basically three and a half for Derrick Rose before 955 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 3: he went down in the twenty twelve playoffs. If he 956 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 3: gets another something, I think I think he has a 957 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 3: better case, whether that's a sixth Man of the year, 958 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 3: whether he somehow gets a title eventually, if there's some 959 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 3: other honor he can get, I think he can at 960 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: least make a case, which is more than you would 961 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 3: have said a year ago. 962 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, that's fair. That I mean literally the strikes 963 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 2: against him those college the college career, which is I mean, 964 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 2: he reached the championship game, but then those wins were 965 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 2: you know, crossed off, yeah, avoided, vacated, whatever you want 966 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,040 Speaker 2: to call it, after the investigation and free throws in 967 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: the eligibility. Yeah true. And then his international play he 968 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,399 Speaker 2: won a couple of World Cup gold medals. I think 969 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 2: he was on the twenty ten and fourteen teams. Yeah, 970 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 2: but he never won an Olympic gold if if you care, 971 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 2: I actually that is a great comparison with the Grand Hill. 972 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 2: I sort of compare them in a weird way to 973 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 2: another Memphis guard like Penny Hardaway a little bit where 974 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,880 Speaker 2: if you go check their numbers through their first eleven seasons, 975 00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 2: you know where Rose is at right now. Very very similar. 976 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: They're they're pretty comparable. Penny was a four time All Star, 977 00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 2: he was three time All MBA obviously like a highlight 978 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 2: machine like Rose was before he got injured. And I 979 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 2: don't think Penny Hardaways making the Hall of Fame, no, 980 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 2: I get it. The part of this question is, well, 981 00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 2: if Penny had sort of sign. 982 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 4: An MVP, that's the biggest eferying Grant and Penny, I mean, 983 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,479 Speaker 4: that's would be the only guy who never made it, Yeah, 984 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 4: as an MVP. 985 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 2: Right right, right. But also the idea here that JOHNA 986 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 2: was saying, you know that you guys are saying, if 987 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 2: he averages sixteen, seventeen, eighteen points for a game for 988 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 2: like three, four or five more years here off the 989 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 2: bench or starting roles or whatever, and maybe that is important. 990 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,360 Speaker 2: I'll give you that because Pennyell, of course didn't have 991 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 2: any of that. But right now, Basketball Reference has Derek 992 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 2: Rose at a twelve percent chance to make the Hall 993 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,800 Speaker 2: of Fame, Penny just under twenty nine percent. I don't know, 994 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 2: Penny ain't making it. I'll tell you that. And uh, 995 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,359 Speaker 2: MVP or not. I don't think he is. I don't 996 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: think Derek h I think he's gonna be the first nut. 997 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,359 Speaker 1: I think that's enough for him right now because you have. 998 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:58,279 Speaker 2: Fifteen thousand points. That's not even that. That's not that many. Like, 999 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 2: it's not that many. No, isn't there what's the cutoff 1000 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 2: that they say? 1001 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 1: Like, I think Tom Chimes is a guarantee. Yeah, I 1002 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 1: think Tom Chimes is the only twenty thousand to not 1003 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:10,760 Speaker 1: be in there. I believe. 1004 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 4: Yeah. And Antoine Jamison has joined next Oh right, right 1005 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 4: right right? Love it really fun, really fun, next one here? 1006 00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 4: What up? No dunkers, man? I just love your shows. 1007 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 4: Was cleaning up my house, which is the best time 1008 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 4: to have you guys on the headphones when Task said, 1009 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,680 Speaker 4: went to have my peach wax and I just lost 1010 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 4: it for five minutes, giggling alone in my apartment. Anyway, 1011 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 4: Task mentioned that Vince Carter was the best dunker in 1012 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 4: the two thousands, and Blake is the clear standout in 1013 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 4: the tens. But Blake has remodeled his game and doesn't 1014 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,439 Speaker 4: get that many dunks these days. So who's the next 1015 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 4: man down the line, someone who would be the best 1016 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 4: for a long period of time and could always count 1017 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 4: on to be in the Best Dunks of the Year list. 1018 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 4: I personally think it's Yannis, but any dark horses that's 1019 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 4: from Rob in Estonia. 1020 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: Right, So Vince the best dunker of the two thousands. 1021 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 2: Task was making the case for Blake for from twenty 1022 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,760 Speaker 2: ten to you know, basically the end of this decade. 1023 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 2: Who will be next? We threw in Zion Williamson would 1024 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:11,160 Speaker 2: be a you know, a fair pick if if he 1025 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:12,280 Speaker 2: gets back and he's healthy. 1026 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 3: I guess who else, honest is not also the guys 1027 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:17,360 Speaker 3: honest to me. 1028 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:22,360 Speaker 1: If Morent can throw something, because you know he's trying, 1029 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 1: hasn't sort of had that signature one yet, but he's 1030 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: gonna have a future. Donovan Mitchell, he throws down some 1031 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 1: nice in game. 1032 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 2: Dunks, right, he'd be like your wied sort of. 1033 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 1: Type to pick. 1034 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Aaron Gordon could be young enough to 1035 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 4: still be doing it for a good chunk of the decade, 1036 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 4: exactly being sort of in that same boat. But Aaron 1037 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 4: Gordon's a little bit more. Yeah, they're too young, I guess, 1038 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 4: or too old I guess because they started in that. 1039 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're kind of the mids. 1040 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you really need to pick like a first 1041 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 2: or second year player here. 1042 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 3: What about Lebron for the for the twenty tens, He's 1043 00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 3: got to be one of the best dunkers of the 1044 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 3: twenty ten. Just weird to say Lebron is a dunker. 1045 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 3: I think is the bigger obstacle. 1046 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 4: It's a little like Jannis as well. Right, they have 1047 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,720 Speaker 4: not a lot of flare, but they have their obviously 1048 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 4: billion jams that they throw down. You don't think of them. 1049 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 2: I would for the decade, yep, for the Blake decade. 1050 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 4: We're saying, yeah, but we're talking. We're talking the Krem 1051 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 4: of the Krem of the Krem with Blake and with Vince. 1052 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,240 Speaker 4: I think those are the best dunkers of game the decades. 1053 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's important. The in game. Oh man, Yeah, 1054 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: I don't know how it wouldn't be Zion, I guess, 1055 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 2: but I don't want to jinx anything. 1056 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,959 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I agree. I mean Jannison Zion is my list. 1057 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 3: That's just a matter of let's see Zion jumps the 1058 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 3: yeah when he comes back. 1059 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: And stay on the floor. 1060 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 2: Next one from Joel. Joel s hey, guys, I was 1061 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,800 Speaker 2: listening to your beach pod this morning here in sunny 1062 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 2: Costa Rica, and I thought of you, guys, Lee especially 1063 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 2: might like this. In the twenty fourteen season, Mando Junobili 1064 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 2: wore Lebron's shoes all season, including in the finals when 1065 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 2: the Spurs rolled the Heat in five. If that's not 1066 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 2: a subtle fu, then I don't know what is Who 1067 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 2: beats a man with his own shoes? More of a comment? 1068 00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 2: Technically is a question? Who beats a man with his 1069 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:15,399 Speaker 2: own shoes? 1070 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, because we were talking about players and if they 1071 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 4: wore the signature shoes of opponents last week on our 1072 00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 4: sneaker draft, so this was this came into play. This 1073 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 4: is It was interesting and you know, I guess you 1074 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,040 Speaker 4: do see it that that guy would wear the signature 1075 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 4: shoe of his opponent. This is a good example. 1076 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,360 Speaker 2: I had to like fact check this. I was like, 1077 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, Joel, is this true? He's dead on. 1078 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 2: I mean I was looking at the you know, the 1079 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 2: getdy images and stuff like that. Yeah, man, who was 1080 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 2: wearing Lebron e Levins. I believe in that finals. I 1081 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 2: think Lebron is still playing in the Soldiers playoffs. Yeah, 1082 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:53,879 Speaker 2: so that's intriguing. But he had Yeah, man, who had 1083 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,399 Speaker 2: like the three cool colorway pack going on? Of these 1084 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 2: had like, you know, they were sort of spursy colors, 1085 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:00,959 Speaker 2: but like more golden there little mixed in there. Because 1086 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 2: we were in the finals. 1087 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 1: Again, I didn't say is it an f you? I 1088 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 1: say it if he wore the Brunze old season and 1089 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,399 Speaker 1: then got to the finals and started wearing Kobe's, Yeah, 1090 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:11,839 Speaker 1: because he's did. 1091 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 2: Change into Kobe's. I think the next year though, is 1092 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 2: that enough? 1093 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 1: That's fine? 1094 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 3: Wore Kevin Durant's shoes last year in the finals, an 1095 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 3: old version though not even the updated version that Kevin 1096 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 3: Durant was wearing when he was healthy. So maybe wearing 1097 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 3: a guy's old shoes is that an fhew? 1098 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 4: Sounds more like a good on you, you made a 1099 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:35,240 Speaker 4: good shoe shoes. 1100 00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,360 Speaker 2: Nice shoe, thank you, thank you. 1101 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 4: More, but thank you all right? Next one here, friends, 1102 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 4: It seems like we've settled on no dunk crew for 1103 00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 4: you guys, have we? But I ask you, what are we? 1104 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,399 Speaker 4: The listeners called? Beyonce has the Beehive, Taylor Swift has 1105 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 4: her squad, and Rihanna has the navy. But what do 1106 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 4: we call ourselves? The loyal no dunk fans collective. I 1107 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 4: know there is a tweet of the weak army, but 1108 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 4: not all of us tweet, so it doesn't seem accurate. 1109 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 4: Good point, Michael from Sherman Oaks, California. 1110 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 2: Well, I Rihanna has her crew whatever you wanna call it. 1111 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 2: It's called the navy. 1112 00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: Is that true? 1113 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 3: According to the Google it's true. 1114 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 2: I've never heard that. I like it, but I've never heard. 1115 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 3: That you haven't joined the navy? Is what you're saying? 1116 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 2: Is there a reason why so nautical? 1117 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 4: Is? 1118 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 2: Like she's from an island. 1119 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 3: She was in that movie Battleship. People just loved it. 1120 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,920 Speaker 3: Maybe we gotta support her in any seafaring ways. 1121 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, nuts, that was new to me.

Dunks out 1126 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 2: of context later I. 1127 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: Like the dinkers in Australia when we were kids. If 1128 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 1: you were dinking someone, it meant that they were on 1129 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: the back of your bike as you were riding. 1130 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 2: Hey, they were standing on the page. 1131 00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, so give me a dink. 1132 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 2: Okay, give me a dink. But they weren't. They were 1133 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 2: called pegs. Were they called dinks? 1134 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 1: Well, they were called pegs what you stood on, But 1135 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:19,280 Speaker 1: it was giving someone a dink if you were taking them. 1136 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 2: Because your dink is in the person's back. 1137 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:25,399 Speaker 1: I know what you with your dink. 1138 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm trying to find out you could think on the 1139 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 2: back or. 1140 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:31,320 Speaker 1: The front if someone sat on your handlebars, that was 1141 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:32,399 Speaker 1: also dnking. 1142 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 2: Dinks at a distance. 1143 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 4: Let's stay down in Australia. What about dunk a ruse? 1144 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 3: It comes up. I don't mind it either. Dunk a 1145 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,720 Speaker 3: ruse and dinks is the two that I thought are catchy, 1146 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:57,280 Speaker 3: that that somebody should use. Somebody's got to be a DNK. 1147 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 1: The like when you get a ride home, it's kind 1148 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: of like dinking, but in a car he trade, can 1149 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:00,760 Speaker 1: can you dink? Sure? 1150 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 2: Carpool? 1151 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:05,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, but dinking but ding. 1152 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, we're we're still we haven't decided. 1153 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:13,480 Speaker 2: I guess what we're getting at here. Got a couple 1154 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:17,720 Speaker 2: of suggestions that we're not against. Maybe there's something still better. 1155 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe we gotta expand the realm. You know, Rihanna's 1156 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 3: fans are not called the Rhiannon's. 1157 00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're called the navy. 1158 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,680 Speaker 3: That's something completely different from Rihanna. We don't even know 1159 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 3: how it relates. So don't just put yourself in a 1160 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,400 Speaker 3: dink box. Don't put yourself in a dunk a roo box. 1161 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,799 Speaker 3: Expand it. Yes, yeah, maybe we're the browns. Everybody out 1162 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 3: there is the greens. 1163 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 2: Oh wow, back to the compost all right? Yeah, tweet 1164 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,360 Speaker 2: at us at no dunk say a cash tag notes. 1165 00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 4: Browns would work because there's fewer of us, and there's 1166 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 4: browns are harder to come by. So we in the 1167 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,920 Speaker 4: compost world, we would be the browns, would. 1168 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 2: Be the browns, The fans would be the greens. 1169 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,440 Speaker 4: Would be the food scraps. We would be the carbon. 1170 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 4: We would be the newspaper. It's tough. That's a tough analogy. 1171 00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:01,919 Speaker 4: I don't know if we can pull it off. Justin 1172 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 4: Bieber has got the best one with the believers. 1173 00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I like Beyonce's too, but I always struggle 1174 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 2: do you say, do you say beehive or do you 1175 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 2: say beehive? 1176 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:19,200 Speaker 3: Be beehive? Is Jim Beheim Syracuse Coaches. 1177 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 2: Fans John Beline, Hello, No Dunks Podcasting Crew That I 1178 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 2: like that one for us. At least we are the 1179 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 2: No Dunks Podcasting Crew. I am writing this email while 1180 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:35,320 Speaker 2: procrastinating writing my final papers in the Concordia University library 1181 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 2: and admits another massive blowout by the MAVs over the Pelicans. 1182 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 2: This may be recency biased, but for some reason, the 1183 00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 2: number of massive blowouts this year seems to be astronomical 1184 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 2: compared to other seasons. Before the beginning of the season, 1185 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 2: You guys, especially Tasks, seem to be really hyped up 1186 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 2: about the parody in the NBA. But I feel like 1187 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 2: this season has just been the good teams blown out 1188 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 2: the bad teams, and the best teams blown out the 1189 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,240 Speaker 2: good teams. Do you still think that parody is something 1190 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 2: that we can look at fondly about this season or 1191 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 2: does it just feel inevitable that it will be Bucks 1192 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 2: versus Lakers in the finals. Would love to hear your 1193 00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 2: guys thoughts. Thanks for helping me maintain my sanity during 1194 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 2: the finals season. That's from THEO. Good luck THEO. Hope 1195 00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:18,359 Speaker 2: those papers are going all right. 1196 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 4: THEO is right to call me out. I was definitely 1197 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 4: very pumped about the parody, and it's definitely less so now. 1198 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:26,760 Speaker 4: There's been a few teams that have dropped off from 1199 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 4: the real level of championship contender to more of a 1200 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,880 Speaker 4: you know, could get there. I would say it's definitely 1201 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 4: better than previous years though with the Warriors. Yeah, and 1202 00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 4: it's sort of somewhere in between. You know. My level 1203 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 4: of excitement is that, you know, it's dropped a bit. 1204 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 4: But I wouldn't say the Lakers Bucks finals. 1205 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, no, No, that's not inevitable. They're the best 1206 00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 2: teams right now in each conference. But I think I 1207 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 2: heard KOC talking about this with Vernon. It does you 1208 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 2: don't like, you're not like, well, they're going to the finals. 1209 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 2: There still are other teams that could knock them. 1210 00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 4: Off, like the Bucks are. 1211 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:02,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Fox feel a little bit inevitable. 1212 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: They felt that why last year though, two up in 1213 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 1: the conference finals. 1214 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:09,160 Speaker 4: That's the NBA baby, Yeah, yeah, but it definitely feels 1215 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 4: it feels like it. They're they've separated themselves between them 1216 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 4: and the Sixers and Celtics, and yeah, but. 1217 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 1: It's also it's also December. Yeah, they don't want to 1218 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: have peaked now. 1219 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. A part of it definitely is the Sixers have 1220 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,560 Speaker 2: not looked incredible. A defense is still there, but with 1221 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 2: you know, Beata struggled and does the fit work at 1222 00:57:27,960 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 2: times with Simmons and some of the role players that 1223 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 2: times are good and times are not. I mean they 1224 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:34,439 Speaker 2: can they shooting, can they hit enough shots and stuff 1225 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 2: like that. 1226 00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 4: Their offenses awful fence for sure, it's not fun to watch. Yeah, 1227 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,360 Speaker 4: but on the other side, the Lakers have a definitely 1228 00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 4: competition in the Clippers. People should still believe in the Clippers. 1229 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 4: But then even then the Rockets, Nuggets. 1230 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, because we were saying there was like eight teams 1231 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 2: and we were coming into the season, we were like, yeah, yeah, 1232 00:57:54,640 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 2: I could see the I could see the Jazz going 1233 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:57,600 Speaker 2: on the final. I can see the Nuggets going to 1234 00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 2: the finals. And now you're saying it feels like it's 1235 00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 2: more for me. Okay, yeah, it's drapped off. 1236 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 3: The question is the Sixers will they be good enough 1237 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,200 Speaker 3: offensively that they can score enough points because they will 1238 00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,400 Speaker 3: give Yannis problems. I imagine in the playoffs if they 1239 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,919 Speaker 3: meet up, They've got Embiid and Horford, two big guys 1240 00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 3: who know how to play defense, who can at least 1241 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:18,840 Speaker 3: help on the rim. They've got Ben Simmons, who is 1242 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 3: close to Yannis's size and athleticism, who will maybe be 1243 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 3: able to stick him a little bit handling the ball 1244 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 3: and playing on the perimeter. But then they got to 1245 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 3: try and score against the Bucks. That's the problem too. 1246 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 1: But the Buck showed last year when Kawhi got switched 1247 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 1: on to Yannis that they had a weakness because they 1248 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,000 Speaker 1: didn't really have an answer to that. Mike Budenholzer really 1249 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: didn't have an answer to that, and that cost them. 1250 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 1: So if you can find a way to nullify Yannis, 1251 00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: then the pressure is on those other guys for the 1252 00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 1: Bucks to deliver, and last season they weren't able to. 1253 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 1: Now they have a year of experience. But again, Mike 1254 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: Budenholzer also has to prove that he can get a 1255 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 1: team over the line. He's been in this situation with 1256 00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: the Hawks where they look great in the regular season, 1257 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: weren't able to do it in the playoffs. One season 1258 00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:04,160 Speaker 1: in Milwaukee look great also you know, should have made 1259 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 1: it to the finals and weren't able to do that. 1260 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 1: So I'm certainly not at this point, like, yeah, the 1261 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 1: Bucks are strolling to the finals, they would deserve to 1262 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 1: be favorite, but no, no sure thing for sure. 1263 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 4: Yea supposed stopped in Theseter Conference finals. He was then 1264 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:18,880 Speaker 4: stopped in the World Cup with the Greek team where 1265 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 4: they just shut him down with a bunch of guys 1266 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,479 Speaker 4: going at him. He just seems like that one guy 1267 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 4: in the NBA history, an NBA lord that will just 1268 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 4: somehow get it, We'll find a way to win a title. 1269 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:30,680 Speaker 4: Just seems like that way to me, that he is 1270 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 4: just that monster that just cannot be stopped. He's sweating 1271 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 4: right now, he's working out somewhere right now. It just 1272 00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 4: feels like that. 1273 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, Bucks are deservedly the favorite, like you're saying 1274 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 2: right now in the East. But I could I can 1275 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 2: see right now a hell of a series with the Heat, 1276 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 2: a hell of a series with the Celtics, possibly. 1277 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 1: Even the Raptors. 1278 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't think it's a cakewalk by any means. 1279 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,120 Speaker 2: So I like that part it. Look, when the Pacers 1280 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:54,920 Speaker 2: get all the Deepo back, they're going to be interesting. 1281 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 2: So we got they got the five or six teams 1282 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 2: in the East, and then it's yeah, you know, some 1283 00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 2: of the disappointing teams I early on I have been 1284 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 2: in the West, you know, in your Blazers and probably 1285 01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 2: your Rockets and your Nuggets and your Jazz, like those 1286 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 2: ones that we got a little more excited about, Clippers, Lakers. 1287 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 2: They've been great. But the parody I think Schumann was saying, 1288 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 2: was it this week that the Eastern Conference actually had 1289 01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 2: a better record versus the Western Conference. It's crazy, which 1290 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 2: is wild. I mean if you're looking at that type 1291 01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:23,000 Speaker 2: of parody between the two conferences. 1292 01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 4: But yeah, they're beating the West and head to head games, 1293 01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 4: which is weird. 1294 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:29,320 Speaker 3: That's what We're gonna have good playoff races, There's no 1295 01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 3: doubt about that. There are a lot of teams bunched 1296 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:34,760 Speaker 3: up at the bottom of the bottom of the playoff 1297 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 3: picture in both conferences. You got about nine teams gun 1298 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 3: in for three spots, so that will be fun to 1299 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 3: watch up top. The good teams are good. That's just 1300 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 3: how it is in basketball. 1301 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 4: All right. You mentioned the Nuggets, Skeets, you mentioned a cakewalk, 1302 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 4: got an email about food. Hey, no, Dunkers, longtime fan 1303 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 4: and new permanent resident of Canada.
