But the first one we're starting with 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 2: and we'll just do our big takeaways. Apple sauce Baby 47 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: Westbrook records a historic triple double as the Wizards beat 48 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 2: the Pacers last night. Trey crazy statline from Westbrook in 49 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 2: this one. In a victory too, he took over late. 50 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 2: What's your takeaway? 51 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a fun game to watch. The Wizards 52 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: got the Pacers the play there pace and Andy couldn't 53 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: keep up. They got lapped. Oh no beal for the Wizards. 54 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: So we got vintage MVP Russell Westbrook thirty five points 55 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: you mentioned at skeets, twenty one assists Sawsen them last 56 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: night serving up those Fuji apples, plus fourteen rebounds for 57 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook. That's his sixteenth triple double of the season, 58 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: already a record for the Washington Wizards all time. What 59 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: were you doing, wes Unsold, where's your triple doubles? Anyways, 60 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: Westbrook was money down the stretch as well. He was 61 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: balling hard all nights of the confidence was at one 62 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: hundred percent. In the last five minutes, he got a 63 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: couple of lamps, hit a couple of three pointers. It 64 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: honestly looked like the MVP season for Westbrook out there, 65 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: and an incredible win for the Wizards, who since the 66 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: Eastern Conference is very jammed together and none of these 67 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: teams who were in basically five through ten are able 68 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: to string together. And he wins. I said it was 69 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: crazy that the Wizards were the Cinderella team that somebody 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: picked while I was gone. Maybe it's not. They look 71 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: all right right now. And you know, as has been 72 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: the case with Westbrook, it feels like as soon as 73 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: you Tagler your style to him and he kind of 74 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: gets a little bit of chemistry alongside the team. Same 75 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: as what happened with Houston last year. The numbers, the efficiency, 76 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: it all sort of seems to rise. It's just you 77 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: gotta play Westbrook's game. Last night, the Wizards did it. 78 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: He looked great. 79 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had that Wizards as my crazy Cinderella team. Yeah, 80 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 2: this idea that they could even get into the play 81 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 2: in tournament, and they're right there. They're like two games 82 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: back or something like that, so it is possible. I 83 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 2: saw Fred Katz on the boulevard. He tweeted this morning 84 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: that the Wizards have the easiest remaining strength of schedule 85 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 2: in the NBA too, that was coming by way of Tankathon, 86 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: So this isn't play here, Ley, and it's wild. And yeah, 87 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: that Westbrook stat, you know, not only just the woe 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 2: boy that's gonna be in the running for woe Boy 89 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 2: of the Year, just the pure numbers there. But Trey 90 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 2: said it, it took Westbrook thirty eight games, thirty eight 91 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: games to take the Wizards franchise lead in triple doubles. Now, 92 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 2: I don't know what that says about Westbrook or the 93 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 2: Wizard's franchise, but that is unreal, that stat. And yeah, 94 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: he's putting up a thirty ten to twenty in a victory. Again, 95 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 2: they sort of needed all of this to beat the Piecers. 96 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: It was a close game until the Wizards took over lap. 97 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 3: But what do you think, Yeah, well there's still eleven 98 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 3: games below five hundred, but that doesn't really matter. Last 99 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 3: night it was just a classic Westbrook game because he 100 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 3: wasn't really stats stuffing either. He was just, you know, 101 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 3: without Bradley Beal, he had to do more and he 102 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 3: needed They needed every single one of those possessions and 103 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 3: those stats to get over the line against the tough 104 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 3: Indiana team. And he hit the threes. Ladies talking trash 105 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 3: to the bench. I mean, it's just incredible that this 106 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 3: guy can sometimes really cost his team games by trying 107 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: to do too much, whereas last night he couldn't do enough. 108 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: You know, he was just playing such great basketball and 109 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 3: starting the transition, and you know, he just seemed to 110 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 3: play better. I mean, without having bal there. He just 111 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: knew that he was the man. He was going to 112 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 3: have to do everything, and he really relished that opportunity 113 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 3: and hit those threes late. We know, sometimes at Westbrook 114 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 3: those are exactly the sort of shots that cost his 115 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 3: team games, but they didn't last night. They won. So 116 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 3: it was a fun Westbrook experience last night. And yeah, 117 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: I mean, to have the Wizards record already is is weird? 118 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess, I mean, maybe it's not so 119 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 3: weird because you know, it's really been in the last 120 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: five or six years where the triple doubles have just 121 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 3: become so prominent, especially for Russell Westbrooks. So maybe it's 122 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 3: not that big a deal. But fun, just fun to watch, 123 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 3: which is not always the case with the Wizards of 124 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 3: this season, and even with Westbrook at times he's frustrating. 125 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: He drives you crazy because it's like, I wonder why 126 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: he can't be more consistent with that sort of play. 127 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 3: You know, will he even play tonight. He's in a 128 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 3: back to back. He hasn't been playing except for when 129 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 3: he played against the Ruckets in a back to back 130 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: this season, So maybe he will, maybe he won't. But 131 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 3: it's hard to not watch a game like that and 132 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 3: just think, Man, this guy's going to the Hall of Fame. 133 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 3: There's no doubt in my mind's going to the Hall 134 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: of Fame. But he's also one of the most frustrating 135 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 3: players we've seen in the last few years because it's 136 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 3: you know, he can put up these stat lines and 137 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 3: his team can lose. But but last night it was 138 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 3: like one of the most dominant single game performances by anyway. 139 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 3: I mean, you talk about war Boy of the Year, 140 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 3: what about war Boy of all Time? Maybe, I mean. 141 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: Has some of these type games dating back again to 142 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 2: the MVPCS. Yeah, it's an unbelievable lie would you see it? 143 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: And he filled the box score, even had a couple 144 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 2: you know, steals in there through a block in as well, 145 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 2: hit some three. Yeah. I not great at the line. 146 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 2: I think he was u maybe three or five off 147 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: the top of my head. But yeah, hell of a 148 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: game from him. And I can't believe they're in a 149 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: play in race here. I just it's amazing to me. 150 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: You're right, eleven games back a five hundred, But there's 151 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 2: so many teams bunched up there, and we'll get. 152 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 3: To lose the rep just ahead of them. 153 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and both of those teams dropping brutal losses last night. Yeah. 154 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 2: So anyway, third thirty ten and twenty game ever recorded, 155 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: apparently the first since Magic back in eighty eight. I 156 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: saw I think the NBA was tweeting us. So Apple 157 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: sauce is what we're calling twenty plus assists. I like 158 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: you have the prop there, Trey. There's been a lot 159 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: of like other suggestions for it, but for some reason 160 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: it's so stupid. I like it. 161 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: Oh sorry, my hands are mixed up here. The as 162 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: for the assist, the apple sauce, especially if the assists 163 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: are like particularly fancy, you know, they're saucy. It took 164 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: us about a year to actually crack the code on 165 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: what rebound highlights would look like, So please send us 166 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: your suggestions Twitter, email, YouTube, Instagram, whatever it is. How 167 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: are we gonna make these into highlights because when you 168 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: make apple sauce, all you do is like grind up 169 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: the apples, and you know, it becomes a sauce. I 170 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: think we're gonna have to put a little bit more 171 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: effort into this one, so let us know what it 172 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: should be. Assist highlights. They're a little tastier than rebound 173 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: highlights to begin with, So I don't know, maybe we 174 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: need a little less seasoning. I don't know, let us know. 175 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: Okay, did you I was gonna say, did you contemplate 176 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: last night when we saw this line come through? Like, 177 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: did you think about maybe I will hit the old 178 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: you know, editing machine by sauce the sauce and put 179 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 2: these together like or did it not even cross your 180 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: mind like it does with the Big Beef? 181 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: Oh one hundred percent, it crossed my mind. I saw. 182 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: I was watching the end of this game. I saw 183 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: Westbrook get his twentieth assist, and I asked Laura immediately 184 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: apple sauce in the house, which is like, yeah, I 185 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: mean it's one of our kids' favorite foods, eating apple 186 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: sauce NonStop. So I knew we had it around, but 187 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: I didn't have it in me to figure out what 188 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: it's actually gonna be. 189 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 3: I think Drew Gooden called it the boberor Wolton he did. 190 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty twenty at that point or something like that, 191 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 2: which is really great, good stuff there from Dudd and 192 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 2: I like that. Yeah, he had like something like I 193 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: want to say, it was like nineteen assists, was like 194 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 2: nine minutes to go, and like a small part of 195 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 2: you is like, is he gonna beat Scott Skyle's record here, 196 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 2: which is thirty assists in a game like which is 197 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 2: still like mind blowing, but it's like that's in play 198 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 2: with that which I left in a close game and 199 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 2: maybe even goes to overtime or something like that. You know, 200 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: obviously it it petered out a little bit, is racking 201 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 2: up those assists, but he was starting to score a 202 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: bit more. But yeah, crazy stuff there from Westbrook. All right, 203 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: let's keep it going here. The next game is the 204 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: Heat snapping a six game losing streak with the ninety 205 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 2: eight eighty eight win over the Knicks. Not a whole 206 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 2: lot to say about this one. Lost in the Shuffle 207 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: on Monday Show, though, lead was the Knicks losing Mitchell 208 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: Robinson sounds like for the year with a broken foot. 209 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: Right he had had a broken hand, had come back, 210 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: played a little bit, and now out with the broken foot. 211 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: Maybe you saw that clip too of basically Mike Breen 212 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 2: breaking the news to Derrick Rose after the game prior, 213 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: not last night's game, but telling him like, oh yeah, 214 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson's probably out for the year with a broken foot, 215 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: like Roses, like super emotional and like pretty shook up. 216 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: But anyway, the Heat got a much need to win. 217 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 2: I thought band played really good. And yeah, someone I 218 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: forget who it was, was it Trey or you Ley 219 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 2: that was saying, you know, would be nice a Nick's 220 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 2: Heat first round series take us back to the nineties. Well, 221 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 2: here's a little prelude of it. You know, both teams 222 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: under a hundred points. It was ugly in the first half. Man, 223 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: it was really low scoring. I was watching a lot 224 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: of this one, so I don't know, are you still 225 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 2: on board with that? I can't remember which one of 226 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 2: you said that, but yeah, it was it was ugly, 227 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: but he got much. 228 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: For me to win. 229 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 3: I would like to say, have first rounds here. So 230 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 3: I think these two teams that are quite good, well, 231 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 3: you know, I think the Heat are better than their 232 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 3: record is right now. Bam almost got himself some big 233 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 3: beef last night, only a couple of rebounds short there. 234 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 3: But the Heat just needed this victory and didn't start 235 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 3: off all that well, but they grinded it out, which 236 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 3: is a classic way of the Heat getting those wins 237 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 3: just to get back on track is make it ugly, 238 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 3: make it a bit dirty and grimy there, and they 239 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 3: got it done. So this one, especially when you see 240 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 3: following on from the Westbrook game, this one wasn't fun. 241 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 3: You know. It just felt sort of dirty, like you 242 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 3: just sort of watching it and you're just like, it's 243 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 3: not There was no flow to it, That's what I'm saying, 244 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 3: you know, Like Westbrook was in his rhythm, was in 245 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 3: his groove. This one was more just like the Heat, 246 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 3: like we're not losing seven in a row. We're going 247 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 3: to get this win. You might not enjoy it, but 248 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 3: this is how it's going to be, so, you know. 249 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 3: But the big news is, of course Mitchell Robinson. I 250 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 3: think he's a big loss for the next I think 251 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: he can be a fantastic player at both ends. But 252 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 3: they've missed him for you know, I think pretty much 253 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 3: most of the season and now he's out, you know 254 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 3: for a lot. But the good news is, you know, 255 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 3: if he can come back next season, I think the 256 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 3: Nicks have a real important piece off their team and 257 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 3: can really impact the game at both ends. 258 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: Nerlans Nowell has played actually pretty damn good this year, 259 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: you know, getting a lot of those minutes because Mitchel 260 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 2: Robinson has been out with the injury. But yeah, Jimmy Butler, 261 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 2: he sort of took over this one too. I thought 262 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: was pretty cool. I don't know how much you saw 263 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: this one tray and they got some contributions, Like some 264 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: of the shooters started hitting some shots too, and they're 265 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 2: Duncan Robinson in their hero But it's like just Jimmy 266 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 2: was like, no, we got to get a victory here, 267 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 2: and You're just like, it's always nice to be like Westbrook. 268 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 2: It's nice to be reminded that Jimmy Butler on any 269 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 2: given night looks like he can be like one of 270 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 2: the best players in the league when he does that 271 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: little takeover Jimmy Butler thing, when he works hard and 272 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: he be's the man. 273 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: Right, that's right. Nineteen points in the second half for Butler, 274 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: four threes for Tyler, hero four threes for Duncan Robinson, 275 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 1: and that's kind of the special sauce for the Miami Heat. 276 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: You need Jimmy to play well and you need your 277 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 1: shooters to shoot well, which is pretty weird because you 278 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: look at the full stats for the game, that's eight 279 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: threes from Robinson and Tyler Hero. Heat only went ten 280 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: of thirty four from the from three point line last night, 281 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: but that was enough against the Knicks. That's kind of 282 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: what it feels like with the Heat is that for 283 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: this whole season, it's going to be just enough offense 284 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: if they're going to be able to make a run 285 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: at a top four seed here, which I think is 286 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: still certainly possible. You know, the Heat shopped the ball 287 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: really well down the stretch last year, and obviously in 288 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: the bubble they were unconscious. So we'll see they've got 289 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,719 Speaker 1: shooters there and they've got a guy and Jimmy who 290 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: can find it. They just need Goran Dragics to come 291 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: along a little bit further and really put that pressure 292 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: on the rim. He is an X factor to me 293 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: for this too. 294 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 2: Our next game here Steph Curry. He returned from the 295 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 2: tailbone injury and all his butt jokes that he had 296 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: been making thirty two points, had some beautiful highlights as 297 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 2: the Warriors unfortunately trade beat your Bulls one sixteen one 298 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: oh two. This one did have a nice flow to 299 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 2: it at times, though is back and forth affair. 300 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: But what's your takeaway, Well, skeets bad news. Yeah, the 301 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: bulls are not. 302 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: Back, maybe far back. The bulls are back to being 303 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 2: the bad bulls. 304 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: That's not the Bulls's sorry, that's that's the bad bulls. 305 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: So yes, the bad bulls are back. 306 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, doub bulls. 307 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: Are not back. I told Laura going into this one. 308 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: If the Bulls lose this, I don't think they're going 309 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,199 Speaker 1: to be back anymore. And unfortunately for Chicago, Steph Curry 310 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: came back from his tailbone injury and honestly torched Chicago 311 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: thirty two for Steph six threes, and he pretty much 312 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: won this game by himself in the third quarter, scored 313 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: fourteen straight. And I was incensed about this because both 314 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: Zach Lavine and Nick Vuchevic were off the court while 315 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: Curry was catching fire. You finally got two All Stars, 316 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: We've got an MVP going off, and the All Stars 317 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: were just sitting there watching. 318 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 319 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was that was not cool to me. So 320 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: the Bulls now have lost six of seven. They're three 321 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: and eight since the All Star Break. They're on a 322 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: four game losing streak, and in those four games, the 323 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: Bulls are shooting twenty eight for one hundred and twelve 324 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: from three point. Wow, that's twenty five percent. The Bulls 325 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: play zero defense, so the margin of era it's too 326 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: slim for those kind of nights every single night, and 327 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: last night was a microcosm. Six of twenty four from three. 328 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: There's that twenty five percent number right there, and nineteen turnovers. 329 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: You're not gonna beat good teams if you can't shoot 330 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: and you turn the ball over all the time. If 331 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: you're looking for a silver lining here, it is. The 332 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: offense looked better in Game two. Yeah, with Booch some 333 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: new post up wrinkles, a couple of nice two man 334 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: game moments between him and Levine, and the other good 335 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: part is that the rest of the East can't win either. 336 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: The Raptors, Pacers, Celtics, Knicks and Raptors all lost on Tuesday. 337 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: The Balls are going to have to actually win a 338 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: game on this road trip. You can't come back until 339 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: you've been away, but you can't just count on everybody 340 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: losing the entire time. I mean, it's not a shame 341 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: to lose to Steph Curry and the Warriors when they're 342 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: on fire, But when your offense is not able to 343 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: play offense and you're an offense only team, that's a disaster. 344 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah that's well, well, where's that win gonna come from? 345 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 3: On this road trip to TK they're in Phoenix, than 346 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 3: Utah and then they go home to play Brooklyn. 347 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: Well, well, they beat the Suns and the nineteen ninety 348 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: three finals, they beat the Jazz and the nineteen ninety 349 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: seven and nineteen ninety eight finals, So I'm saying two 350 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: wins right there. 351 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 3: Lyft Okay, well, listen, things happen in the NBA. Any 352 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 3: team on any night can beat any other team. We 353 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 3: know that. But after those three you go back out 354 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 3: on the road. But you got the Pacers, the Raptors, 355 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 3: the Hawks, the Wolves, so you know, all right, I 356 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 3: don't see you winning the next three games for the Bulls, 357 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: but after that, perhaps one or two. Perhaps one or two. 358 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 3: But as you mentioned there the other teams sort of 359 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 3: in that bunch and not really making it harder for Chicago. 360 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 3: They're almost keeping the Bulls alive in it. And that's 361 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 3: really what's going to have to be because the Bulls 362 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 3: are really facing an uphill battle in these these next 363 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 3: few games here. But you know, the Warriors are a 364 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: bit of a funny team as well. They've sort of 365 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 3: had their moments. But obviously Steph just makes such a 366 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 3: huge difference. And he said he's not fully recovered from 367 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 3: that butt injury. 368 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: He had another tumble last night. 369 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but I think I think obviously the war 370 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: is you know, maybe they rushed him back a little 371 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: just because they needed to get back on the on 372 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 3: the board with a couple of wins here. So you know, 373 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 3: you do that when you're the Worries, because they don't 374 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 3: they're not trying to tank this season. All they want 375 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 3: to get into the playoffs and do some damage if 376 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 3: they can, and they saw the Bulls in down and 377 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 3: took advantage last night. 378 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 2: I think it's crazy too that Curry is averaging twenty 379 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 2: nine points per game, five boards, six assists. You know, 380 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 2: his shooting numbers are Curry like forty eight from the floor, 381 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: forty one from three, you know, ninety three at the line, 382 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: whatever the heck it is, And here's a guy that's like, 383 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 2: he's not even at the table, Lee, he really is 384 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 2: not at the MVP table conversation. That's how great this 385 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 2: league is. Right now we have like he's like, I 386 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 2: don't know, he's maybe in the restaurant, but he's not 387 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: at the table. He just isn't. And but this is 388 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 2: not knocking Steph Curry. I'm just saying, my god, what 389 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: a league and the talent in this league where Curry, 390 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: a two time MVP, is like not even there. He's like, yeah, 391 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 2: he's not even in the picture there, He's not even 392 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 2: behind Lee's white turtleneck. 393 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's just crazy. Look, this is a two 394 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 3: time MVP. He wasn't at the table. I think he's 395 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 3: pulled up a chair right now. So maybe this time 396 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 3: he has step I think he's left his run a 397 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 3: little bit too late, but it's possible. 398 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 2: And Dale brings up a good point. Curry is the 399 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 2: chef's making. 400 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: He's making the dinner. Okay, I like that. 401 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 2: Very very smart there, Neil, But yeah, he was special 402 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 2: and bulls man. You got to switch up the defense 403 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 2: a little bit, giving him a little too much room 404 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: to operate after the high pick, Like holy crap, Howry 405 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 2: marketed multiple times. Just you gotta get a little higher 406 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 2: up there on the pick. 407 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: Actually put some pressure on him. 408 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 2: Jesus fu. 409 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, we need Lowry to lock down Steph Curry out 410 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: there on the perimeter. I get it. But that's the 411 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: thing is, like you're not stopping Steph Curry. You gotta 412 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 1: play offense. This team is gonna win games by outscoring opponents. 413 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: And when you turn the ball over nearly twenty times 414 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: and miss most of your three pointers, it doesn't add up. 415 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: It just literally doesn't add up. You're not getting enough 416 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 1: possessions and you're not getting enough makes other than that 417 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,640 Speaker 1: look good. 418 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 2: Yeah for sure. All right, next game, Zion william Since 419 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: scores twenty eight, Ingram hit some clut shots, lat Pelicans 420 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 2: beat Boston one fifteen one or nine. Celtics fans were 421 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 2: back in the house, Lee and there were Boo and 422 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 2: the Celtics. It's good to have NBA fans back in 423 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 2: these arenas. 424 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 3: A yeah, but what do you think? Well, a couple 425 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 3: of little mini story lines out of this one. Evan 426 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 3: Fournier made his debut for the Celtics, went oh for 427 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 3: ten in thirty three minutes. Not great. Luke Cornet another 428 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 3: couple of threes for the Big Buddy. Yeah he hit 429 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 3: a couple. No Jalen Brown here for the Celtics and 430 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 3: the Celtics this one looked like it was going to 431 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 3: be a mini blowout with about four minutes to go, 432 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 3: They're down sixteen. Then they went on a big thirteen 433 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 3: zero run got themselves back into it before as you mentioned, 434 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 3: Brandon Ingram hit a step back that basically put the 435 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 3: game out of reach. But the big story another incredible 436 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 3: performance from Zion Williamson, particularly in the third end of 437 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 3: the third into the fourth quarter, just going inside the paint, 438 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: just catching bodies left and right. I think Zillah said 439 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 3: this morning, Zion had eleven Field goes no dunks, but 440 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 3: every basket basically a layup or as good as a 441 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: without actually jamming on guys. And it's you know, the 442 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 3: finishing and the touch around the rim is great, but 443 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 3: it's that handle that he's got which continues to impress me. 444 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 3: Like at times when defenders are there, he puts it 445 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 3: behind his back, he gets inside and he you know, 446 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 3: can pick the ball up cleanly and go up to 447 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 3: the rim. And I think that's what just makes him 448 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 3: so difficult to match up on because he's on the 449 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: perimeter at times and then before you know it, he's 450 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 3: at the rim. And that's just something for a guy 451 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 3: of his size, you of his bulk, that I think 452 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 3: is going to be really tough as he matures even 453 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 3: more and just becomes like a bull, because there's a 454 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 3: couple of times there you see guys and there you know, 455 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 3: two or three guys around him, and they really can't 456 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 3: do anything to stop him, and he can elevate and 457 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 3: get up there and score. So a good win here 458 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 3: for the Pelicans. They nearly blew it. Notorious Celtics killer 459 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 3: Eric Bledsoe hit a couple of threes late like he's 460 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 3: always done in Boston before, which really was important in 461 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 3: the end for the Pelicans. But yeah, Stave van Gunny, 462 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 3: I mean, Shack used to call him the Master of 463 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 3: Panic because he claimed that he didn't know how to 464 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 3: close out. And we've seen a couple of times this 465 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 3: season the Pelicans have had good leads and kind of 466 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 3: blown it at the end. They hung on to this one. 467 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 3: They managed to get the win, but not convincing. I mean, 468 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 3: remember in Portland only a couple of weeks ago when 469 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: they were up seventeen with only a few minutes to 470 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 3: go and they lost that one. That was of course 471 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 3: Damien Little going crazy for the fifty points. But that's 472 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 3: the one concern I have with the Pelicans. I think, 473 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 3: you know, they've got so many nice little pieces. Kira 474 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 3: Lewis was very good last night. Josh Hart had another 475 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 3: almost beef as well. They had fifteen rebounds. You know, 476 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 3: they've got the right pieces in place. You know. Now 477 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 3: it's just a matter of can these guys gel get 478 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 3: together and actually become a real threat in the Western Conference. 479 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:42,360 Speaker 3: They're not that team yet, but I think I think 480 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 3: they've got the Dave Griffin's got some nice pieces together. 481 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 3: It's just now how they fit with each other going forward. 482 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 2: Brian Scalabrini was loving Zion works that highlights last night. 483 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 2: He was going crazy, fuming over them. There was a moment, 484 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 2: a small stretch in this scheme. It was like, I'm 485 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 2: talking like a ninety second stretch where I was like, 486 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 2: my God, is Luke Cornett the Zion Williams a stopper? 487 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 2: He was like giving him some trouble, Like how you know, 488 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 2: I was just missing a couple inside the length was 489 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 2: getting to him and then no, it turned out that 490 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 2: not to be the case. It was just Zion. There was, 491 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 2: like you said, two or three guys, there was one 492 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 2: player leader, there was four Celtics. I swear to god 493 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: that basically bounced off of Zion and I think he 494 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 2: missed that shot, but it was like unreal, there was 495 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 2: that many bodies around it. But he's still powered up 496 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: through all of them and had a good look and 497 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 2: it just rimmed out. 498 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 3: But Brian Scalabrini is making Celtics fans forget about Tommy 499 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 3: Heinsen on the call there too, just a couple of 500 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 3: times just. 501 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: Like, ah, that is brutal, what is that cool? 502 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 3: He was right on one of them, but he was 503 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: completely wrong on another one. But that's that was classic 504 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 3: Tommy Heinsen as well, just like those Celtics blind as 505 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 3: he had on. 506 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 2: And that was all he saw. 507 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 3: So but Ben Scal's good. I like the energy brings 508 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 3: to their broadcast. He's he's a fun guy. 509 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 2: The worst non call of last night I think happened 510 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 2: in the women's game. 511 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: Did it not? 512 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 2: In the was it Baylor Yukon? Did you guys see 513 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 2: the Oh my goodness? Go look it up in a 514 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: crazy game. I was sort of following it generally on Twitter, 515 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 2: and then I saw the highlights. I don't know the 516 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 2: woman's name, but she got she got hit, she got 517 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 2: hit in the face on it was unreal anyway, Yeah, 518 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 2: Zion twenty eight And I think Griff took to Twitter 519 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: last night too, pumping up his boy brandon Ingram saying 520 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 2: you know, oh, we're all you guys, saying he can't 521 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 2: close games. Look at this because he had two shots 522 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: actually in this one also shocked in a fool a 523 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: whoopsie of the Year candidate in Marcus Smart. Did you 524 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 2: see this one lee the jump ball where. 525 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 3: He thought go ahead, Well he only had zero point 526 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: three of a second though on the clock. Well, wasn't it? 527 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 2: Yeah? But was that the case? I'm not one hundred percent, just. 528 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: Because I saw it going around and I, as far 529 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 3: as I knew, was like he couldn't really do much 530 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 3: more than just sort of, you know, kind of palm 531 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 3: it towards the hoop. 532 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 2: I thought that's what it was, slapping it up up. Yeah, yeah, 533 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: it's up on house highlights if you want to see it, 534 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 2: and there labeling at a shack in there. I thought 535 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 2: maybe there was a misunderstanding with the clock itself and 536 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 2: whether or not they were going to get more time 537 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 2: and check it. 538 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 3: But I yeah, it was that was all it was 539 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 3: that there was not enough time for him to do 540 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 3: much more. 541 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 2: Back to that Warriors game too, Draymond Green hitting the 542 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 2: curry three from the logo that was pretty crazy, all. 543 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: Right, logo Green Steph called him after the game. 544 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 3: Catch on paper is saying it was point three seconds 545 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: left for the Pelican. Yeah, okay, okay, yeah, okay, okay. 546 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: That's what everybody on the Celtics was looking at him, like, 547 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: what the hell are you doing? 548 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: Man? 549 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 2: He just had a brain fart there. 550 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: All right. 551 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 2: The other games I'll list I guess what like seven 552 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 2: other games here. The Nets held on to beat the Wolves. 553 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 2: A couple of rookies led the Pistons over the Raptors 554 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: one eighteen one oh four. I'm so close to posting 555 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 2: the in memoriam photo of us where we're singing a 556 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 2: sad song. Maddio's on the guitar, putting a dying rose 557 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 2: for the Raptors season. I mean, I know they're still 558 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 2: in the race for the plan, but it's uh it's 559 00:24:55,840 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 2: getting very very depressing when like Hammadu Dia and two 560 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: rookies on the Pistons are basically kicking your ass. It's bad. 561 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: Save it, Lee or Skeatsy. Save it for April eighth. 562 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: We got the Bulls versus the Rape, Well that might 563 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: be a game versus the thirteen and fourteen seed at 564 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 1: this point. 565 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 2: Good point, yeah, yeah, were undertaker matches called like a 566 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 2: casket match. That's what That's what it is, all right, 567 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: I love it. Bear cast match season's over. Okay. Valan 568 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: Chun has had a season high season best excuse me, 569 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,639 Speaker 2: thirty points, season high season best. Same thing as the 570 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 2: Grizz beat the Rockets again. You see Jahn Moran's dunk 571 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 2: at the buzzer, Oh my god, goes between the legs. 572 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 2: Get him and the dunk contest man. The Mavericks rolled 573 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 2: past the Thunder one twenty seven six Fox and the 574 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 2: four hs led the Kings to their fifth straight victory. 575 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 2: They defeated the Spurs one thirty two one fifteen, Clippers 576 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 2: in nineteen threes to beat the Bucks one twenty nine 577 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 2: one five for their sixth win in a row. And finally, 578 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 2: the Jazz also won their sixth game in a row, 579 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: one fourteen thirty five over the cap. So three teams 580 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 2: there on some winning streaks. Lee in the Kings and 581 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 2: the Clippers and the jazz I thought Kurt Helen of 582 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 2: NBC Sports was right on with the Clippers game. He says, 583 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: the Clippers beat the Bucks Monday night in the We 584 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 2: don't care what you do in the regular season, let's 585 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: see it in the playoffs showdown. Not wrong with those 586 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 2: both those teams, Milwaukee and LA but LAC getting some 587 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: help from their other guys is huge, Like Morris, Luke 588 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 2: Canard is coming around here. What we thought you could 589 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 2: maybe give them, you know, Jackson, how good one, Terrence Man, 590 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: so you know, contribute contributions there with like sometimes Quhi 591 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 2: not in the lineup, sometimes Paul George, like last night 592 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 2: in the lineup, so clips playing you know, sort of quietly. Well, 593 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 2: none of it really matters, but here the yeah, yeah. 594 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul Georgia of Late Scratch for this one too. 595 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 3: So yeah, Luken did come into that starting lineup and 596 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 3: had another pretty good effective scoring game twenty one points, 597 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 3: five of six from downtown, eight of eleven in total 598 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 3: shooting from the floor. So you know, we know that 599 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:57,959 Speaker 3: when they signed him in the off season they were 600 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 3: hoping for this from him. We hadn't really say, we've 601 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 3: seen now a couple of little flashes of it. So 602 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 3: that's good for Tyler to have a little bit of 603 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 3: depth there. Yeah, not really much else to say. It 604 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 3: was a fairly close game, this one, but then the 605 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 3: Clippers just pulled away late. The Bucks got off to 606 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 3: a great start, but the Clippers sort of seemed to 607 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 3: drop the hammer there when it really counted. And you know, 608 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,479 Speaker 3: not much more regularly than to say about that one. 609 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 4: What No. 610 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 3: I rewatched this one this morning, and well, you know, 611 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 3: it was a good first half, but then the Clippers 612 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 3: kind of put the foot down there and in the 613 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. It wasn't really so much the 614 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 3: third quarter. It was more the fourth. So the Bucks 615 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 3: not missing anybody, you know, a little disappointing that they 616 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 3: got blown out quite quite so easily in the end, 617 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 3: But I guess it was a little bit of the 618 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 3: revenge factor as well, because these two teams had a 619 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 3: pretty close game in Milwaukee. I don't know when that 620 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 3: was a month ago, two months ago. I remember it 621 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 3: was a Sunday afternoon tilt and the Bucks kind of 622 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: just stretched it at the end, so maybe there was 623 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 3: a bit of that, but good performance from kIPS. And yeah, 624 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 3: that six game win streak one of the quad of 625 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 3: win streaks we've had, certainly for a good team. 626 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the King cares at all. 627 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 3: No exactly exactly, but that's great for the clip is 628 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 3: mentioned this earlier in the season. This is what you want, 629 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 3: don't You just don't want any attention. Let the Jazz 630 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 3: have their you know, forty point win last night. You 631 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: expect that against the Cavs, Clippers. Just win these games. 632 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 3: Be quite about what you're doing. 633 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 2: I think it's good too. That Again, like I said, 634 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 2: it's not winning they're winning all these games because of 635 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: Kaui going for forty or Paul George hitting eight threes. 636 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 2: It's they're getting contributions from all of these other guys 637 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 2: they're going to have to help in a playoff series. 638 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 2: So that that is really really good. As for the Jazz, 639 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: I just wanted to point out about their winning streak 640 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: because it's sort of like no one cares at this 641 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 2: point too. We know they're a good team. Then they 642 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 2: had a little cold spell, but now they're winning all 643 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: these games. Again, since the All Star Game, Donovan Mitchell 644 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 2: is averaging twenty nine point two points per game, fifty 645 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 2: percent shooting forty six from three. I mean, he only 646 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 2: played twenty five minutes last night. But you know, Phillip 647 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: the box or in a dominant win, and Rudy Gobert 648 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: is playing just as well. Maybe since the All Star 649 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 2: Break eighteen and seventeen he was flirting with the big 650 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: beef two steels, four blocks. I think he's sort of 651 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,959 Speaker 2: starting to run away with Defensive Player of the Year. 652 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 2: Maybe a lot of people probably already had them running 653 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 2: away with it. But the Jazz have built a three 654 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 2: and a half game lead for first place in the West, 655 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: standing set for the number one seed. That's pretty big 656 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 2: because they're thirty five and eleven. There's only twenty six 657 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: games to go. If my math is right, I mean, 658 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 2: you know, it's starting to get It's by no means 659 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: like the Suns, the Clippers, the Lakers, they could still 660 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 2: theory catch them, but I think it's becoming less and 661 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: less likely, not only with the way the Jazz are playing, 662 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 2: but you know some of those teams, like the Lakers 663 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 2: had a spell there and stuff like that. Falling off 664 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: a little bit because of injuries. But yeah, I think 665 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: the Jazz are going to be our number one seed 666 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: is what I'm getting at her tray, And you know, 667 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 2: that's great. They want that. Of course, as we've talked about, again, 668 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: depends where the Lakers and Clippers fall, but they would 669 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: be love and only having to play one of them 670 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 2: in a potential you know, path to the finals. 671 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: Right, no doubt about it. They've gotten eleven game win 672 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: streak this season and I think got nine game win 673 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: streak and now they're working on the six. Who knows 674 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: how high up that's gonna get. It looks like they're 675 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: going to be the number one overall Seaton. Let's see 676 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: if that makes a difference for the Jazz being able 677 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: to play at a home court that actually seems to 678 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: have a little bit of a home court advantage, you know, 679 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: they're at altitude. I think they have the most fans 680 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: in the stands of any have any NBA team, which 681 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: is a choice to make, but also something that could 682 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: could have could play out in the playoffs, right, that 683 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: could actually matter having a lot of fans in the 684 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: stands there to be cheering for the Jazz. So yeah, 685 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean, conditions are perfect for the Jazz to make 686 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: a run at the very least at the Western Conference finals, 687 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: if not the NBA Finals. 688 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 2: Fox was named Player of the Week Lee. We were 689 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: talking about that yesterday, and you know, he had another 690 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: solid game Homeste hat a good game in the King's 691 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 2: victory of the Spurs. They have a second one against 692 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 2: them coming up here. But yeah, Mitchell and Fox, I 693 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 2: think there are both of those guys are gonna be 694 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 2: right there for Player of the Month honors in the 695 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 2: Western Conference at least where you. 696 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 3: Laughing, Yeah, Well, I mean they've won five in a 697 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 3: row and there's still three games below five hundred here 698 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 3: here they come. You know, that's the thing that they've 699 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 3: done this stears before where they've looked good and you 700 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 3: think and beating the Spurs is a very good victory, 701 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 3: like a convincing victory. So that's great. But what will 702 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 3: happen now with the Kings? Will they just go on 703 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: one of those four game losing streaks stinkers that you 704 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 3: just go, why did I even invest any sort of 705 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 3: hope into this team? But yeah, Darren Fox, he's a 706 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 3: he's a really good player. He can be no, he 707 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 3: can be a really really I'm looking for no. I mean, 708 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 3: like because it's so hard to judge him on the 709 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 3: Kings team because they haven't had any success with him 710 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 3: there yet. But when you watch him at his best, 711 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 3: it's like, this guy is I think he's a top 712 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 3: point guard in this league. He hasn't made the All 713 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 3: Star team yet, and I think again, largely because he's 714 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 3: on the Kings. 715 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: You know, it's not much different than Devin Booker exactly. 716 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 2: So that's my point. 717 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 3: And Devin Booker took a few years to sort of 718 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 3: get into this All Star teams. He got there and 719 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 3: he's really starting to stand out. So when are we 720 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 3: going to see now, you know, the Aaron Fox not 721 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 3: just be like okay, it's the Kings, Like can he 722 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 3: get them to a point where it's like, okay, they're 723 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 3: in the six spot in there, because right now they're 724 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 3: still only battling for the plane Tory. Yeah that's nothing. 725 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 3: You know, they need to sort of have some wins there. 726 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 3: So yeah, he's a he's a good players. 727 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: This nuts. Let's get to the updown report. Yeah, the 728 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: updown report, guys. First one, it's been a hot topic 729 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 2: here in the NBA world it feels like over the 730 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 2: last couple of days, the buyout market it could play 731 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 2: a significant role here, maybe in determining the championship, which 732 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 2: has caused complaints from small market teams. The system is 733 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 2: floods at a small market GM. To Howard Beck of 734 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: Sports Illustrated, who had a right up on this, you 735 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 2: shouldn't be adding to your team this deep in a 736 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 2: season without giving things up the nets, added Marcus Aldridge 737 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 2: Blake Griffin. After those guys agreed to biots, we had 738 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 2: Andre Drummond signing with the Lakers there on Sunday. Another 739 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 2: quote here from that article, you're just helping the rich 740 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 2: get richer from another anonymous small market GM. So the 741 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 2: question is here up or down on small markets concerns, 742 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 2: their executives concerns about this buy out market. What do 743 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 2: you think? 744 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 3: Lee, I'm down on it. Listen, LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake 745 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 3: Griffin to veterans towards the end of their career who 746 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 3: just want to go to a team that's contending for 747 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 3: a championship and the rules allow them to do that. 748 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 3: They gave back some money to their teams, uh, and 749 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 3: they now can go and sign with whoever they want. 750 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 3: That's the rule. Andre Drummond, a younger player, he's also 751 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: been on you know, bad teams for most of his career. 752 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 3: He goes to a team where he's going to be 753 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 3: in the playoff for sure and likely contending for a championship. 754 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 3: The rules allow him to do that. So unless there's 755 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 3: some these the executives have come up with a way 756 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 3: that's a fair way for these teams to have to 757 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,799 Speaker 3: give up something, then I'm really not sure what they're 758 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:19,439 Speaker 3: complaining about. Because the Lakers haven't been a glamorous team 759 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 3: for the entirety of their last ten seasons, you know. 760 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 3: I mean they haven't made the playoffs for a couple 761 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 3: of years there, so Andre drumm wouldn't have been signing 762 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 3: there like three or four years ago. When they're a 763 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 3: bad team, they're going to teams where they want to 764 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 3: win championships. And same with the Brooklyn Nets. You know, 765 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 3: before Kevin Durant and Kyrie even came along, they are 766 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 3: a team that made their playoffs, But no one's going 767 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 3: to sign with the Brooklyn Nets, you know, three or 768 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 3: four years ago. But now they've got those players there, 769 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 3: so they're more attractive to free agents. So I'm not 770 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 3: sure unless you just change the rules completely and say, right, well, 771 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 3: if you're top four seed, you're not allowed to sign 772 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 3: a guy. You know, you know, That's what I'm saying. Like, 773 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 3: unless you just make it so that you prevent those 774 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 3: teams from being able to sign free agents, I'm not 775 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 3: really sure how you change the system outside of just 776 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 3: drastically making it difficult or saying, okay, you have to 777 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 3: because the wave wire exists so that if you pick 778 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 3: up a guy, you have to pay your salary. But 779 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,239 Speaker 3: that's why they clear waves because nobody wants to pay 780 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,399 Speaker 3: these guys the remaining salary. So okay, change that rule. 781 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. I think it's more just like these 782 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 3: smaller market teams complaining because they see everyone joining the Nets. 783 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 3: But again it's LaMarcus Aldridge, Blake Griffin too. You know, 784 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 3: very good players in their prime, but they're not in 785 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 3: their primes anymore. Their insurance gaps really for the Nets 786 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 3: at this point of the season, they're not there. They're 787 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,080 Speaker 3: not going to dominate it. Well, Kevin Durant's on the team, 788 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 3: That's all you should be worried about. If you're facing 789 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 3: the Brooklyn Nets. I mean of course James Harden and 790 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving, but Kevin Durant on that team makes them 791 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 3: a championship contender whether or not LaMarcus Aldridge and Blake 792 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 3: Griffin are there. So it sounds to me a little 793 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 3: bit more just like you know, the small teams are complaining. 794 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 3: But unless you come up with a solution that's workable, 795 00:35:58,800 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 3: I'm not sure how you change it. 796 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: What do you think, Trey, I think it is a problem, 797 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: but it's a problem because all the good teams are 798 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: in big markets right now. Buyout guys used to sign 799 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 1: with the Cleveland Cavaliers when Lebron James was a Cleveland Cavalier. 800 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: Buyout guys used to sign with the Oklahoma City Thunder 801 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: when they were challenging for championships as well. The problem 802 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,839 Speaker 1: is that all the super teams are in the big 803 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: markets right now. Obviously there's a couple in LA, there's 804 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: one in New York, and you know, the Nicks would 805 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:26,800 Speaker 1: like to have a super team as well. So I 806 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: don't know exactly how you combat it, except for you know, 807 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: like I look at a team like the Thunder. They're 808 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: in the smallest market out there, and their highest paid 809 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 1: players just sitting on the bench for the rest of 810 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: the season. You know, like, if they wanted to spend 811 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: money on a buyout guy, they could have done it. 812 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: They just chose not to because it wouldn't really help 813 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 1: their team. The problem is that the buyout game has 814 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: become more and more popular. It feels like, you know, 815 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: and the players who are taking buyouts are more and 816 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: more notable. Like, we've had so many All stars take 817 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: buyouts this year that we remember as All Stars because 818 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: it happened in the past decade, So of course we're 819 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: going to refer to them as all stars. You're LaMarcus Aldridge, 820 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,439 Speaker 1: You're Blake Griffins. They're not at an all star level 821 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: right now, but we have long enough memories that we 822 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: can remember when they were. I don't know, maybe you've 823 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 1: got to pay a bigger proportion the salary that's on 824 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: somebody's buyout deal to sign them, so you make it 825 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 1: a little bit more painful for a big market team 826 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 1: to go super deep into the luxury tax. But other 827 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: than that, the key to getting buyout guys to sign 828 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: in small markets, it's going to have really good teams 829 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: in small markets. 830 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:29,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, that does feel to be the case. I don't 831 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 2: think this would have been a big deal at all 832 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,919 Speaker 2: if Blake and LaMarcus Soldiers didn't sign with the Nets. 833 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 2: If Aldridge goes to the Heat and signs there, this 834 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: is not a story in my opinion at all. It's 835 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: just because, Yeah, the two guys that were former All 836 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: Stars who are not that now, as we've talked about, 837 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: picked the same team. Also, this is all our own 838 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 2: fault because all we've done over the last whatever ten 839 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 2: to fifteen years is talk rangs. You gotta have a ring, 840 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: can't go into the Hall of you don't have a ring, 841 00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 2: You're a nobody. If you don't have a ring, Well, 842 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 2: then these guys here that I'm like, damn, I better 843 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 2: get a ring, a better team up with Kevin Durant 844 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 2: trying to help my chances or Lebron James help my chances. 845 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 2: So it's your fault, all of you out there, if 846 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 2: you're upset with this. It's this rings or nothing culture. 847 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: I'm sort of serious. I mean, this is what it's 848 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 2: happening to some extent. And yeah, the small market teams, 849 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 2: you had the opportunity to to acquire these players through 850 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: trades if you really wanted to. Before a buyout. If 851 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 2: you really really wanted that and LaMarcus older, you could 852 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: have tried and traded for them. But yeah, I think 853 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 2: this is a whole lot of nothing here. But I 854 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 2: guess people in the comments were saying they were up 855 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 2: on it, so there maybe is some case. Let's hear 856 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 2: from you guys in the YouTube comments below. After the show. Okay, 857 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 2: next one, The NBA announced Monday that the draft will 858 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 2: be held on July twenty ninth, The Draft lottery on 859 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 2: June twenty second, and the draft combine on June twenty 860 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: first to the twenty seventh. So with the draft scheduled 861 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 2: for late July, it would seem that free agency could 862 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 2: begin as soon as that weekend there, so like late July, 863 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 2: maybe even you know, early August. The question is are 864 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 2: you up or down on the NBA Draft being held 865 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 2: on July twenty ninth. The secret is I just wanted 866 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 2: to slip this into the show somewhere. It's like, I 867 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,839 Speaker 2: really want someone to be upset it's happening on July 868 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 2: twenty ninth. Is anybody thumbs down? 869 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: Like, big time down, big time down? Tell me why 870 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: summer's over already? That's exactly why season ends July twenty 871 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: second draft July twenty ninth. Public school in Atlanta starts 872 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: August fifth, Jesus summer, some big time down on this. 873 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 2: It was a break. Yeah. I was hoping JD was 874 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 2: going to chime into. I thought he'd be pissed about this. 875 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 1: Lee. 876 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 4: Oh, I'm pissed. 877 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 2: I'm very pissed. 878 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 4: But you know, I'm just gonna I won't be here. 879 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 4: That's it, Like I'm just drawing the line there. 880 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 3: You guys, guys on vacation. We all go on vacation. 881 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 2: We can do We can actually like manage now to 882 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 2: do the live stream. The podcast part becomes a little 883 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 2: more difficult. We got time for you to teach us 884 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 2: even how to do that, JDA. Sure we could slap 885 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,280 Speaker 2: it together maybe while you're on vacation. 886 00:39:58,560 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. 887 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 2: Look, the leagu didn't really have much of a choice 888 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 2: in this still league because of the push everything being 889 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 2: pushed back. Of course because of the pandemic, the playoffs 890 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 2: are starting much later, and so this is why we 891 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 2: get into late July early August for the draft and 892 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 2: then free agency, and we'll have to be talking about it. 893 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're trying to get the season back onto 894 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 3: a normal schedule as quick as possible. So that's the 895 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 3: other thing. It's like, jam everything in the off season 896 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 3: in as quick as you can so then we can 897 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 3: get back on track. That's the that's the idea behind it. 898 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say Commissioner Silver has indicated that the 899 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 2: league would still like to hold some version of summer league, 900 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 2: which seems insane, but maybe not by then who knows 901 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 2: to allow these players summer league without summer how's that pas? Yeah, 902 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 2: falling early, falling, that's true. 903 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 1: I like that. 904 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, so maybe so it could be possibility. Go ahead. 905 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,399 Speaker 1: I will say this is going to be the least 906 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 1: watched draft ever. Book it. It's in the middle of 907 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: the Olympics, the first week of the Olympics. We're going 908 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: to be having the NBA draft.

I'm loving the color scheme of 928 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: this movie. That with a couple of things I don't love. 929 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 1: Number one, you don't see Lebron's face in these pos 930 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: I would like to see Lebron's face. I mean his 931 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: shoulders looking nice. Obviously he's gonna be wearing a shooting 932 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: sleeve in this. I think that's important to convey. Second 933 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: thing I don't like, No Marvin the Martian, Where's my 934 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 1: guy hat Marvin the Martian. I guess he's just not 935 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: a is he not a big enough name in the 936 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 1: Looney Tunes universe. He's definitely a role player. 937 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 2: I would say, yea, what do you think you said? 938 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 3: Roadrunner was in that? 939 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? 940 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 3: And Speedy Gonzalez. 941 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 2: Yep, a lot of speed man speed. 942 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 3: Who's who's QUICKI you think out of those two because 943 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 3: Gonzales Gonzalez was quickest of all Mexico, I believe. But Roadrunner, 944 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 3: I mean pretty quick, pretty quick. 945 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'd like to see them. 946 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 3: Have a race. 947 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 2: I think, well, this is one of these things where 948 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 2: I think Speedy is quicker, but Roadrunner is faster. 949 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,959 Speaker 1: And speed versus a jilly. 950 00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 3: I mean speedy Speedy could play a game of tennis 951 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 3: by himself. Remember he would be He was that quick 952 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 3: that he could hit it and then run around the 953 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 3: other side hit it flash like Yeah. But road Runner 954 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 3: was so quick he could you know, the road would 955 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 3: lift up behind him at his full full speed. So 956 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 3: that's what I'm saying, That's that's a fascin I wonder, 957 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 3: I mean over, you know, over, you know, how for 958 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 3: how far would you even do this race? Would you 959 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 3: make it a sprint like a two hundred or would 960 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 3: you make it more like a fifteen hundred? 961 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:28,720 Speaker 1: You know? Oh geez? 962 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,320 Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I think the longer the race is, 963 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 2: the more elected chances of the road runner. Yeah, like 964 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 2: maybe a hundred, maybe a two hundred. I hear you. 965 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 2: I could see speeding it. 966 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 3: I mean yeah, yeah, quick as of all of Mexican, 967 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 3: we just don't know the field they do it. 968 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: He might not. 969 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 3: We might be running against nobody yet, we don't know. 970 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 2: And uh and then yeah, there is Taz there.

And you know, 991 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,080 Speaker 4: I hate doing Twitter to night because I have to 992 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 4: go on Twitter and I'm not a huge Twitter guy, 993 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 4: and you know it's kind of a sesspool. But I 994 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 4: open my feet and lo and hold. Lily Goo's grandmother 995 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 4: is back in my feed. So you remember her from 996 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 4: earlier this month. Her ninety four year old grandmother was 997 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 4: spent the pandemic basically keeping track of her favorite NBA 998 00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 4: players on this notepad and Danny Green was number one apparently. 999 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 4: And then yesterday Lily Goo's grandmother received a jersey assigned 1000 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 4: jersey from Danny Green. It was really nice, but you know, 1001 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 4: this is really really low hanging fruit, right, Like I can't, 1002 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 4: I can't do it. So I dug a little deeper, 1003 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 4: and of course there was Russell Westbrook doing his postgame 1004 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 4: interview with no shirt on it. I was like, oh, 1005 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 4: this is this is going to be right. Well, this 1006 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 4: is going to be so many memes about this, and 1007 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 4: I only found one that I really liked. It was 1008 00:45:55,920 --> 00:46:00,279 Speaker 4: from Haley O'Shaughnessy a white crop top with a deep 1009 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 4: V and long sleeves. Pretty little thing and nasty Gali 1010 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 4: have twenty four hours to respond. I lol did this, 1011 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 4: but you know, but I only found one, and I 1012 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,359 Speaker 4: usually liked to have at least three, if not five, 1013 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 4: of those, So that's out. Then I realized that Kyle 1014 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 4: Chandler was trending for some reason. Then there's like a panic, 1015 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 4: did he die? Is he canceled? What's going on? And 1016 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 4: I think he was trending simply because this guy Joey 1017 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 4: mull and Aro tweeted another famous guy we all know 1018 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 4: but absolutely refused to know his name. How dare you? 1019 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 4: How dare you? I mean this guy Kyle Chandler. He's 1020 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 4: in you know, Bloodline, First Man, The Wolf of Wall Street, 1021 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 4: zero Dark thirty, but of course probably best known for 1022 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 4: coach Eric Taylor from Friday Night Lights, The Disrespect. I 1023 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:55,320 Speaker 4: can't even. 1024 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 2: That's what I'd like exactly. 1025 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 4: So Lee, do you have a favorite Kyle Chandler? Hold on? 1026 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 2: Hold on? If we had shown you his photo, would 1027 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 2: you have noticed namely, no. 1028 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,279 Speaker 3: Way, no way, no way. I'm sitting through listening to 1029 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 3: J D. Roach that got I'm like me anything of that. 1030 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 3: What did you say before zero doc thirty? There was 1031 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 3: a movie? 1032 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: Uh? He was in. 1033 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 4: Well, he's in the new The King cong versus Godzilla, 1034 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 4: So that's coming. 1035 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: Which one is he? I thought it was great on 1036 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: early edition. That's the show that despite the fact that 1037 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,360 Speaker 1: he's become a famous guy whose name everyone knows except 1038 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 1: for Lee. Uh, in this tweeter, he would that's what. 1039 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,320 Speaker 1: That was his first breakout role, as far as I'm concerned, 1040 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,919 Speaker 1: getting that newspaper with the day's events before they happen. 1041 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 1: He has to go out and change them. So I 1042 00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 1: wonder if he knew ahead of time that he was 1043 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 1: gonna be a big star. Maybe for a. 1044 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:04,880 Speaker 2: Guy that doesn't like Twitter. 1045 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 4: You got a lot of tweets there, ja and well 1046 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 4: yeah again, I go on once a week and I 1047 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 4: just like, oh, there's this one, there's that one. Eh, whatever, 1048 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 4: stupid tweeted them. 1049 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:21,439 Speaker 2: It's not going anywhere, so get used to it. Yeah, 1050 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,360 Speaker 2: let's wrap this up here. Pick the results. Bucks Clippers 1051 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 2: Clippers favored by one and a half. I needed it, 1052 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 2: and hell yeah the nerd dog and ready accident and 1053 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,839 Speaker 2: my man Arn's coming through and flying Colored Clippers get 1054 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: the dominant victory that hit nineteen threes. As we said, 1055 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 2: uh so huge, huge, I'm still alive here for the 1056 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 2: month of March. There are only two nights left when 1057 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,839 Speaker 2: it comes to picking games. Trey had a loss last night. 1058 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 1: He's actually not You're not out of it, like no, 1059 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: I told you, I told you, Skeats, I'm not in 1060 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 1: the clear. Me and the Bulls were faltering here we 1061 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 1: are strong. I'm actually gonna call in the big guy 1062 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 1: to make my pick tonight. I'm gonna need some advice 1063 00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 1: from JD here gets. 1064 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I'm a brutal Because Trey's loss gets him 1065 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 2: to ten and eight, Lee picked up the win with 1066 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:10,480 Speaker 2: me because you had the Clippers. Lee, you're ten and eight, 1067 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 2: Tass is nine to nine, and I'm eight and ten. 1068 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:13,239 Speaker 3: So it is. 1069 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: Bunched up here like a weggie. Let's find out tonight's game. 1070 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:19,879 Speaker 2: It's the Hornets and the Wizards. There's only I think 1071 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 2: four games on without checking, there's not a lot of 1072 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 2: games on tonight, so many on them last night, so 1073 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 2: we got a Hornets Wizards game here to possibly decide 1074 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 2: the pick up for the month of March. It doesn't 1075 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: get crazier than this Hornet's favored by three and a 1076 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 2: half on the road taking on Westbrook and that crazy 1077 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 2: stat line in a back to back situation for Washington. 1078 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 2: We're gonna start by finding out who Tasks took. Let's 1079 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 2: find out. 1080 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 3: It's not gonna lie. 1081 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:48,919 Speaker 2: I feel like Leella's picking this game. It's a tough one, 1082 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna go with the Hornets. 1083 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 3: Got no idea. 1084 00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: All right, skatzee, come get me, Come get me, man. 1085 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,320 Speaker 2: There's a lot going on. There's so much going on. 1086 00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 2: He's got a nice press haircut, he's got the rounders 1087 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 2: checking out, he's got a fuzzy little mic or Gerbil 1088 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 2: in front of him, and then he gave us a 1089 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 2: fire Marshall bill at the end. Okay, so Task takes 1090 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 2: the Hornets. Let's next go to Trey. Do you want 1091 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 2: to get JD's help with this one? 1092 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 1: What are you thinking? JD had like a quick console here, 1093 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 1: as Lee says. 1094 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:29,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, getting the same same. But Charlotte is jumping out 1095 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 4: at me for some reason. 1096 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,240 Speaker 1: All right, I like the buzz give me the hornets. 1097 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 2: All right, it's two people taking Charlotte minus three and 1098 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 2: a half.
