00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,600

00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: us a five star rating and review. It's Monday. We

39
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 3: do winners and losers of the NBA weekend. I think

40
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 3: we can just all agree on the Lakers winning the

41
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: first ever NBA Cup as a big winner. We were

42
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 3: on playback on Saturday night, a d really leading the

43
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 3: Lakers task to the NBA in season tournament title three

44
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 3: one oh nine over the Pacers. I don't think we

45
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: need to do thirty minutes on this game, but your

46
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 3: thoughts on the Lakers winning this whole thing. In that

47
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 3: game in particular, it.

48
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: Was a very good game. I was a little surprised

49
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: actually that it went basically down to the wire. Was

50
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: a one point game. Midway through the fourth I thought

51
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: it was over when Anthony Davis hurt himself. It was

52
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 1: in the third quarter something pulled in his groin area.

53
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: He talked to a trainer, he talked to coach Darvinham

54
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: and said, I guess I'm gonna play through it. He

55
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: came back a minute later after being removed from the game.

56
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: What a game. That was ridiculous for him to have

57
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: forty one to twenty five assists and four blocks. He

58
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: had his highest scored quarter in the fourth after coming

59
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: back from that groin entry, fourteen points. It was It

60
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: was cool for us because it's just really two different teams.

61
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: He had one team just banging in the paint forty

62
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: three baskets in the paint, eighty six points in the

63
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: paint for the Lakers, while the other team shot threes.

64
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: Because the Lakers didn't need threes in this game, they

65
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: only hit two. It was just a great defense where

66
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: they said, you know what, ad Lebron Austin Reeves, you

67
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: guys are gonna have to score because other guys are

68
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: gonna play defense. Cam Reis, you don't need to score.

69
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: Just go at Tyreese Holiburn, go over those picks. Him

70
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: and Jared Vanderbilt, who came off the bench, did a

71
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: great job on Halliburton. So fun makeup of that team

72
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: because they dropped Austin Reeves to the bench for Cam

73
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: Reddish doing a good job out there, and fun for

74
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: the other team. We went down to the wire. Although

75
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: it does look like a big turns.

76
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it was close there in the fourth. We

77
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: almost had ourselves a game. Maybe the Southern Lawyer was

78
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: about to show up.

79
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 2: We almost had ourselves.

80
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 3: A game, yes, but ad dominating Miles Turner definitely one

81
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: of the storylines from this TK and anything else you

82
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 3: want to add.

83
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 4: I mean, eighty six points in the paint is ridiculous.

84
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 4: Two threes for the Lakers. They didn't make their first

85
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 4: one till the end of the third quarter. We're watching

86
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 4: on playbacks saying, is this gonna be the first time

87
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 4: a team has won a game without a made three?

88
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 4: It would have been the first and quite some time.

89
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 4: But man, that was a perfect Anthony Davis game. He

90
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 4: went into it telling teammates, you've never seen me in

91
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 4: a game seven. This is me in a game seven.

92
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 4: Technically a game one and a game seven all at

93
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 4: the same point. You can't find these stats anywhere I

94
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 4: was looking for him on basketball references. It's not on

95
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 4: the Lakers page. I thought maybe I'd be able to

96
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 4: sneak in through the back door. Anthony Davis's game logs

97
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,679
Speaker 4: not there either, but he was dominant in this one, offensively, defensively,

98
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 4: posing with his faces as well. The Lakers were carried

99
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: by Lebron ad And and Austin Reeves. Reeves I thought

100
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 4: was pretty special in the second quarter. Too many fouls,

101
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 4: I would say, in general in this game, but a

102
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 4: fun fun watch for sure.

103
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. My favorite nickname coming out of this game is

104
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 3: definitely neutral Court Ad. Now it doesn't roll off the tongue,

105
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 3: but when you think about this guy on neutral courts,

106
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 3: he's a monster. Go back to like the NCAA Finals,

107
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 3: the Bubble of course, and now Vegas playing on the

108
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 3: crazy court there on the in season tournament. He's just

109
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: a monster when it's neutral court time. But yeah, what again,

110
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: dominated Miles Turner? I mean, Miles Turner got foul trouble.

111
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 3: He only played twenty five minutes, You only scored ten

112
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 3: points on eleven shots. And he had been really, really

113
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 3: important obviously to the Pacers run, along with Tyre's Haliburton,

114
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 3: who they did a great job. I thought of keeping

115
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 3: in check. You know, you said Jared Vanderbilt his length

116
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 3: causing some troubles for Halliburton. And then when you would

117
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 3: get screens, you know you got other good defenders coming

118
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 3: in off that screen. If it's a one to five switch,

119
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 3: it's Anthony Davis, one of the best, you know defenders

120
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 3: in the league, Torrian print Sam and then Cam Reddish

121
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 3: when he was on him, he just did the whole like,

122
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna pick you up full court. I'm just

123
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 3: gonna try and prevent you from getting the ball on

124
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 3: the inbounds. Just tire your ass out. And we saw

125
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 3: Haliburton have three turnovers in this IST finals. Now they

126
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 3: don't count, they don't exist, right, but you know he

127
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 3: had the two games prior to that where he didn't

128
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,239
Speaker 3: have one, so great job. I just thought from the Lakers,

129
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 3: the game plan and just all the lengthy wings along

130
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 3: with ad that they could just throw on a guy

131
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 3: like Haliburton.

132
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: This is why they're supposed to be good. They got

133
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: a lot of long guys. Yeah, no, under the picks,

134
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: you gotta fight over that pick, Cam Reddish and he

135
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: did a great job. That was fun to watch.

136
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 3: The piecers tried in the second half like wisely to like, Okay,

137
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: they're really locking him up here because we have Haliburton

138
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 3: on the ball so much. Let's bring McConnell in and

139
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 3: sort of have him play off the ball. But I

140
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 3: think that's all automatically like a win for the Lakers.

141
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, now Halliburton doesn't have the ball. I mean,

142
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 3: I almost I respect to Racall for trying it again.

143
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 3: It was sort of close there for a bit, but

144
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 3: just a great game defensively from the Lakers. Lebron James

145
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 3: wins the first ever in season tournament MVP. We were

146
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 3: thinking it was going to ad with the monster forty

147
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 3: one and twenty and five and four blocks in the finals,

148
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 3: but in the end they looked at the tournament play

149
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 3: from Lebron, maybe love the idea of Lebron winning the ISTMVP,

150
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 3: and I just went to a vote and we got

151
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: something on that a little bit later. But were you upset,

152
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 3: were you shocked? Were you surprised? At Oh, Lebron got.

153
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: It and I didn't think of at all.

154
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 4: I mean, ad was certainly the MVP of the championship game.

155
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,679
Speaker 4: He dominated that one. But you heard Adam Silver during

156
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 4: the postgame celebrations say this is for the entirety.

157
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: Of the tournament.

158
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 4: He slipped it in there just to remind people that

159
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,239
Speaker 4: the voting counts for everything, and Lebron was special.

160
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

161
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 4: Throughout the tournament, the Lakers were the best team here, undefeated,

162
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 4: they won every game by like twenty points basically, and

163
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 4: Lebron was really good until Anthony Davis was the man

164
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 4: in the in the championship. But I think you're right

165
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: at the skeets a little bit of giving the N

166
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 4: Season tournament some historical credibility by having Lebron win the

167
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 4: first MVP. So you know, if they keep this thing

168
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 4: going for thirty years, we look back and be like.

169
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: Hey, Lebron won the very first one. You remember that,

170
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 2: And then.

171
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: Us old guys will be like, yeah, but Anthony Davis

172
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 4: can't find the stats anywhere, but trust me, it happened.

173
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 4: That'll be going down. But I mean it's not like

174
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 4: Lebron didn't deserve it. Davis just should have gotten to

175
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 4: like a maybe a second medal or something for.

176
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

177
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. In tournament play, Lebron every which nearly twenty seven

178
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 3: points per game, eight boards, seven assists, shot fifty seven

179
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: percent from the field. If we round up a little

180
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 3: bit and sixty percent on threes, that's across the undefeated

181
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 3: run there from the Lakers. So if you're looking at

182
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 3: the entire thing, of course he's it's it's a warranted

183
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 3: win here from Lebron. It's just like I think some

184
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 3: people are like, hold on ad was a monster? What

185
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 3: happened there? Anyway? Who cares? Really?

186
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: Yeah? Those are I guess those are other regular season games,

187
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: so people would say who cares? Or maybe we didn't

188
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: look at the Lakers regular season games those in season

189
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: tournament games. But Lebron was clearly the better guy. Anthony

190
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 1: Davis had a bunch of in the teams scoring games,

191
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: so they didn't match up. You add up forty one

192
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: to seventeen and sixteen and seventeen and sixteen, Lebron was

193
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 1: way better. Lebron deserved this, he entirely, he did deserve it.

194
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: It was key to get them to the finals the

195
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: way they did. They look fantastic, and obviously Anthony Davis

196
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: was special in this one. But Lebron's doing a lot

197
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: of things. He wants to own a team in that city,

198
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: so he felt good. He was talking a lot, pretty

199
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: good job on the micd up of him and Haliburn.

200
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 1: They did that a lot. Yeah, more so than any

201
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: playoff game I've ever heard. They would just go back

202
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: to it over and over and over again. And so

203
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: that was that was pretty good. But Lebron was he

204
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: was jacked.

205
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 3: We find out today the All Tournament team. They didn't

206
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 3: announce it after Saturday night. They didn't announce it on Sunday.

207
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 2: We're getting here.

208
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna get We might get at mid show

209
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 3: for all I know. I mean it's gonna be Lebron,

210
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 3: Halliburton ad. A lot of people think Giannis will be there,

211
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 3: and then it's really that fifth guy. I mean, Trey

212
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 3: did a great job last week trying to sort of

213
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 3: predict who it would be. And I don't know. Did

214
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: Miles Turner play his way off of that all time

215
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 3: great championship game. It's possible, but we'll see. We'll find

216
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 3: out here soon enough. There was other things going on

217
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: on the NBA weekend. So let's do a batch or

218
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 3: two of winners of the NBA weekend. Really looking at

219
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 3: Friday night, if we're being honest, if we're removing that

220
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 3: Saturday night I st finals. So who you got those tests.

221
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna mention the Houston Rockets because they're playing for

222
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: the coach Meldoka. If you remember, since we're talking about Lebron,

223
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: a few games ago, emil Udoka got into it with Lebron.

224
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: He yelled at each other, was tossed from the game.

225
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: Since then, two straight wins, two good wins for the Rockets,

226
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: okay see, and then at Denver they beat Denver for

227
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: the third time this season. How does that happen? I

228
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: don't know, but they've played them four times already. I

229
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: didn't think it was gonna happen watching this game. It

230
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: is weird.

231
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: It's amazing.

232
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, because this N Season Tournament thing happened.

233
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 3: They've played one month.

234
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, but some teams actually are gonna end

235
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 1: up playing the teams that they played in the N

236
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: Season Tournament five times. Then LA is gonna play the Lakers,

237
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: are gonna play Phoenix five times.

238
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 4: Box and Knicks I think too, just because yeah, the

239
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 4: Nicks also get the Sixers five times.

240
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 2: I think.

241
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: That definitely stinks. I didn't think they were going to

242
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: beat Denver because I was watching and Film Brooks does

243
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: this weird thing all the time. Pregame where he stands

244
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: on the sideline. He kind of looks into the crowd

245
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: and it's kind of like he's looking to Abyss. He's

246
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: just staring. He's just for a full minute he does

247
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: not move, and Jamal Murray's Canadian bro joined him, and

248
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: so I thought, Oh, Jamal Murray's gonna torch this guy.

249
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: But den Brooks did a really good job during the

250
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: game and stopping him. Emma Udoka just plays his vets

251
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: so much. That's an interesting thing to me, because Jalen

252
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: Green was having a really good game through three quarters.

253
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: He had twenty five in this game, but Udoka went

254
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: to Fred van Vliet, the guy who's played second most

255
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: minutes in the league, in the fourth quarter, just relying

256
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: on him. Jabari Smith went to the bench for Jeff

257
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: Green because I was playing his old guys. They're up

258
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: twenty five early in the fourth and Denver went on

259
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: to an eighteen to oh run, so it looked like

260
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: Denver might come back. Last nine minutes, Houston just hit

261
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 1: shots from the free throw line. They didn't make a

262
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: basket on the floor. Feel really really strange. Denver kind

263
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: of imploded after that, though. Michael Porter Junior had a tech,

264
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: Peyton Watson missed a layup, and then Jamal Murray got

265
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 1: a second tech and he got tossed from the game.

266
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: But really, I wanted to talk about Houston because they're

267
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: above five hundred. They won their first game on the road.

268
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: Good for them, they're respected. But I really just want

269
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: to talk about Nikolay Jokic because he kind of looks

270
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: like Jokic from the first few seasons of his career,

271
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: sometimes good, sometimes not good. Two games in a row,

272
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: coming off his worst shooting game of his career, nine

273
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: of thirty two, he had another one nine of twenty six.

274
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: This is a Jokic slump. It may just last two games.

275
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 1: But he's coming to Atlanta tonight and so he might

276
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: just give it to the Hawks. I can't wait. Well,

277
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: we have three games in a row. I don't know.

278
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Maybe it's Aaron Gordon

279
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 1: not being himself. He looks unlike himself. He's having his

280
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: worst season. They can't just rely on him. Jokic is

281
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: having to shoot more and more again, twenty six and

282
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: thirty two. That's too many shots. Actually, when you think

283
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 1: about Jokic, that's way too many for a regular season game,

284
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: but pretty cool. The Rockets are something to watch though, because,

285
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: like we said, first road win of the season, they

286
00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 1: don't play him with more whatsoever at all. Thompson is

287
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: back after missing fifteen games from an ankle injury. So

288
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: I wonder if they go to the young guys more

289
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: because they maybe Doka just likes playing the oldies a lot.

290
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: So that's the interesting thing to me.

291
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 3: Why would you think they would go to the young guys.

292
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 3: Then he likes to win, I imagine, and it's like, yeah,

293
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 3: they've been pretty good, but they want that balance with

294
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 3: their young guys and then their vets. That's the tough part.

295
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: I know they signed fred but he's playing, like, you know,

296
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 1: almost forty minutes games. That's a lot. So Freddy does, yeah,

297
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: and he doesn't have good fourth quarters. So that's that's

298
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: what happens. You've got really athletic young guys. It's very

299
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: interesting to see what happens there.

300
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 3: All right, let's move to you here, Trey. Who you

301
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 3: got for a winner of the weekend?

302
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 4: Brooklyn Nets get a winner of the weekend. They took

303
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: care of business against the Wizards one hundred and twenty

304
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 4: four to ninety seven blowout, really a second half blowout

305
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 4: for the Nets. Three straight wins though for Brooklyn they've

306
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 4: won six out of their last seven, and they're basically

307
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 4: doing it by playing defense. They've held opponents under one

308
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 4: hundred and ten in five of these six wins. One

309
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 4: hundred and ten is a gigantic number, but it's like

310
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 4: it's the new what's his name Lawler's Law, New Lawler's

311
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 4: Law first to one ten wins only ninety seven though

312
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 4: for the Wizard's not a great scoring team, also held

313
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 4: the heat earlier on to ninety seven as well. At

314
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 4: the start of this little patch, they're going on here,

315
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 4: they're bigs I thought were really good in this game.

316
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 4: Nick Claxton had thirteen points, fifteen rebounds, a couple of blocks,

317
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 4: Dayron Sharp fifteen points, eleven rebounds, and even Harry the

318
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: dentist Giles got eight points in five minutes in this one,

319
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 4: seventy six points in the paint. Though, for the Nets,

320
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 4: they're looking all right right now. You know, they're finally

321
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 4: over five hundred. They're basically in a tie with the

322
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 4: Knicks right now, going on a five game West Coast

323
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 4: road trip that starts tonight though. They've got the Kings, Sons, Nuggets, Warriors,

324
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 4: and Jazz. That's a tough schedule, no doubt about it.

325
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 4: But if they can go two and three, I think

326
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 4: that would be fair. Three and two, that's a great

327
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 4: trip for the Nets. So they figured some things out here.

328
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 4: Their defense is starting to tick up, and they're actually

329
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 4: getting some decent performances from a guy like Michale Bridges.

330
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 4: Cam Thomas is back and scoring well. They've got a

331
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 4: lot of people who can score the basket ball. They

332
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 4: may not have like the number one star out there,

333
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 4: but they've got a good team. It's very much like

334
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 4: the Nets that got everybody excited before they made the

335
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 4: Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving moves.

336
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, imagine they did that again. Just run him back.

337
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: Try don come on down Nets.

338
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 3: Any thoughts on them here?

339
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 4: Yeah?

340
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: I think Mickel Bridges is being focused on giving them

341
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more, just being the guy, and

342
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: he's been super efficient recently. Harry Giles, it's great to

343
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: see him on the basketball team. Why is he called

344
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: the dentist? I didn't know.

345
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 4: He said if he wasn't a basketball player, he would

346
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 4: have been a dentist imagually having like a six foot

347
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 4: ten d those hands going in your mouth.

348
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 3: Over here.

349
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't like that. I actually wouldn't like my dentist,

350
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: doctor Giles. No, I don't want to Giles.

351
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: Doctor smiles. Giles smiles.

352
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 3: It's pretty good.

353
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 4: You should go back and put in I have t shirt,

354
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 4: Jamie oh Man.

355
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: Okay, so the net rocket's nets. Let's keep going here,

356
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 3: lots winter the weekend to darreon Fox. I'll focus on

357
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 3: a guy here. Star Fox scored twenty three of his

358
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 3: game high thirty four points in the fourth quarter to

359
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 3: lead the Kings over the Suns one fourteen, one six.

360
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 3: This is Friday night, of course, now no durant, no

361
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 3: beal bal by the way coming back on Tuesday apparently.

362
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 3: But still Fox was struggling through the first three quarters,

363
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 3: five of fifteen. He didn't even get to the free

364
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 3: throw line, and then in the final frame six and

365
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: nine from the floor, three to three from deep, and

366
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 3: eight to ten at the line. I just love when

367
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 3: Fox has it going offensively in all facets, right, he's

368
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: scoring at the rim, he's scoring in the paint, he's

369
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 3: getting to the line, and then he's hitting the three

370
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 3: and that's what he did in the fourth quarter. There.

371
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 3: Darren Fox is averaging thirty point five points per game.

372
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 3: I know he missed a couple, so you know, maybe

373
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 3: he hasn't played as much as some of these guys

374
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 3: that top the scoring leaderboard, but still that's a career high.

375
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 3: Easily you almost start to wonder should this guy be

376
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: in the MIP conversation twenty five last year. If he's

377
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 3: kept up thirty, that's something else. But big win in

378
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 3: the Western Conference for the Kings because they improved to

379
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 3: twelve and eight and the Suns dropped to twelve and ten.

380
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 3: These two teams are going to be jocking for position,

381
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 3: I think. And a wild note from ghost Face Tom

382
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 3: Ziller Sacramento six and OHO against the five teams above

383
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: them in the West standings, they have a combined five

384
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,719
Speaker 3: losses to the Rockets and Pelicans. Uh So, just weird,

385
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 3: weird stuff here from the Kings, but doing really well

386
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 3: against those, you know, upper teams in the West. So

387
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: I just thought Fox deserves some love here, and he

388
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 3: has this takeover mentality at times. This was a monster

389
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 3: game twenty three and.

390
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 4: The fourth and he's still at thirty seven percent from

391
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 4: three on the season, so like that's the biggest improvement

392
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 4: for him. He's quick enough to get by literally anybody,

393
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 4: so if the three is dropping, he's just impossible to guard.

394
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: And that's why he's at thirty a game.

395
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 3: Yep, let's do another round here tasks who else you

396
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 3: got on your winners of the weekend list?

397
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: Well, Brady James made his debut for usc. Usc fans

398
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 1: been waiting for this, They've been waiting a month. He

399
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: finally came off the bench and they were giving him

400
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: a standing up as he came off the bench. Lebron

401
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: Papa was sitting courtside as Brian James made his abuse

402
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: in suffering cardiac arrest last year and pregame he looked good.

403
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: He looked great. He looked like Lebron with some huge jams,

404
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: but he's on a minute restriction. So he came off

405
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: the bench and he looked good. I mean, he had

406
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: a huge chase down block, so he did look like

407
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: Lebron early on and got another standing ovation when he

408
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 1: hit his first three. He only played sixteen minutes, but

409
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: he was defensive four to three boards, two assists and

410
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: a big steal, So just a head nod a cheer

411
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: that everybody was given him. They were basically surrounding the

412
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: stadium because they were so fun. They had a moment

413
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: where they held hands around around the stadium like a

414
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 1: circular holding the hands because they like to see Bron

415
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 1: James back, so cool to them.

416
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 3: And he looked all right. I mean the highlights are like,

417
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 3: holy crap. Block was like, well, yeah, that was fine.

418
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 3: It looks like to see that before. So very cool

419
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 3: to have him back. And of course Lebron in attendance

420
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 3: there coming in. I saw him coming in, you know,

421
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 3: to the court side seats, gave him a little tapped

422
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 3: there from the back. Pops is here, and then he's

423
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 3: on his on his camera recording everything. That always makes

424
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 3: me laugh. It's like there's a million cameras and videographers

425
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 3: recording every single move from this guy. But everybody's got

426
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 3: to have their own, you know.

427
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to show him that video later. I like

428
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: how he didn't talk to media. You think people would

429
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: ask him, you're seen your son play for the first time,

430
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: how's it feel. But I like how he didn't. He's

431
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: gonna try.

432
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,959
Speaker 3: As much as possible to like, yeah, it's his moment

433
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 3: and his career, but it's gonna be always difficult to

434
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 3: especially if they're on the same team come the NBA.

435
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: But it is Lebron James, so maybe he would just

436
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 1: talk to some media just because I'm glad he decided

437
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: not to Trey.

438
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 3: Who else you got for winter?

439
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 4: The weekend beef purveyors worldwide, at least nationwide, It is

440
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 4: a huge weekend for big beef. Obviously, Anthony Davis got

441
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 4: the limited edition Big Montana forty one points twenty boards

442
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 4: in the IST Final. Gone Forever, somebody will have a

443
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 4: forty and twenty in an elimination game and they'll be like,

444
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,239
Speaker 4: it's only happened four times in NBA history because they

445
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 4: won't be able to.

446
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 2: Find that Anthony Davis one. But we will remember.

447
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert also got his second Big Beef of the season,

448
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 4: sixteen points, twenty boards and six blocks in a win

449
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 4: over the weekend. Nine offensive rebounds. Six straight wins for

450
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,479
Speaker 4: the Timberwolves. And that's even with Anthony or yeah, Anthony

451
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 4: Edwards missing most of this win. His hip is still

452
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 4: bothering him, but the Timberwolves have not missed a beat

453
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 4: even with ant out, and then Victor Webbin Yama is

454
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 4: our final Beefer of the weekend. Twenty one points, twenty rebounds,

455
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 4: and four blocks. Youngest player in league history with a

456
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 4: twenty twenty under his belt, Dwight Howard the only other

457
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 4: teenager with a twenty twenty game and also the only

458
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 4: eighteen year old with a twenty rebound game in NBA history.

459
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 2: But the Spurs lost.

460
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 4: They've lost now sixteen straight and the Bowls have won

461
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,080

Speaker 4: wins here, and.

467
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 3: You said all of last season the Bulls never strung

468
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 3: together a four game win street.

469
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 4: First time since twenty twenty two.

470
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, Okay, congrats to the Bulls. Come back to

472
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 3: So we at this season in totals that give us

473
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 3: up to seven or so.

474
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 4: Let me let let me check the stats here here,

475
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,800
Speaker 4: let me check the archive one, two, three for five.

476
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 4: Julius Randall was our first beefer four in December though, okay,

477
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 4: four from December sixth through December ninth.

478
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: That's pretty impressive. Oh the beef picking up, yeah, yeah, yeah, hollid. Yeah,

479
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 3: the weather gets colder, you feel like throw more meat crazy.

480
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

481
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: We had a lot of big beefs at our Christmas party.

482
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 2: Was a lot of beef spilling out lot.

483
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 3: We had lots of options. It was a fixed menu

484
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 3: you had to pick from. But I would say, I mean,

485
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: did anybody did anybody.

486
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 4: Not order the A couple of small salmon's okay, okay,

487
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 4: but a lot of big beefs, A lot of beefs.

488
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 3: That was good, all right? Final NBA Weekend winner to

489
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 3: ESPN's Andrea Carter, Who and why you might be wondering?

490
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,120
Speaker 3: Well Kawhi Leonard. On Friday night, he scored a season

491
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 3: high forty one points to lead the Clippers to the

492
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 3: win over the Jazz. He shot fourteen to twenty three.

493
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 3: He was six of eight from deep, and he made

494
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 3: all his free throws. But after the game, ESPN's Carter

495
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 3: got Kawhi to crack a smile talking about his insane

496
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 3: three point floater, that he had one of those makes

497
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 3: from deep. It was like you at the end of

498
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 3: a shot clock and it was wild, and she got

499
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 3: him to smile right at the end. She says, you'll

500
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 3: have kids practicing that one hand runner. For whatever reason,

501
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 3: I got the robot Kalida to crack those pearly whites.

502
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 3: Harry Giles is loving it. May have him in and

503
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 3: so yes, Andrea Carter, good job. It was a good

504
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 3: post game interview. I like she she started with the

505
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 3: three point shooting and then she went back to it.

506
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 3: Maybe that's what got him to finally smile there. But

507
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 3: in an awesome game from Kawhi, Like that was the

508
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 3: most Kawhi he's looked. I would say this entire season

509
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 3: and the Clippers are, you know, stringing together a lot

510
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 3: of victories here.

511
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: I wonder if he's gonna get his haircut for the holidays.

512
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 1: They look long beside those teeth. Yeah, just on the sides.

513
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: They just look big, letting it go.

514
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's feeling it. Any other winners from either of

515
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 3: you guys.

516
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 2: Clippers have won eight of their last eleven.

517
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 3: There you go.

518
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 2: Tyler said, give me ten games and then we'll see

519
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 2: what's happening. And the Clippers are good.

520
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 4: They're playing defense fifteenth on offense and their fifth in

521
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 4: defense right now. And the main thing is that Kawhi

522
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 4: is like taking the most shots on the team and

523
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 4: looking like Kawhi Leonard. Though I will say the Jazz

524
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 4: not great options for guarding Kawhi Leonard. It was mostly

525
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 4: John Collins and that guy should be a center, not

526
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 4: a I don't think that's probably fair.

527
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 1: Well that interview, coy I said they did this a

528
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: favor by not having Lowry marking it out.

529
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, he wasn't even asked.

530
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: He wasn't even asked about the Jazz lineup. We're gonna win.

531
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 3: He was in a good mood, Kawi after that game.

532
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 3: I guess going for forty one. We'll do that, all right.

533
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 3: Those are our winners of the NBA weekend, along with

534
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,479
Speaker 3: our thoughts on the IST final. But let's hear from you.

535
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 3: I know we left a lot of meat on the bone.

536
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 2: We didn't know we did it.

537
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 3: You didn't leave a single fry on your plate.

538
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 2: I was regretting it.

539
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 4: I was regretting it over the weekend, but my plate

540
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 4: was clean, as was my conscience.

541
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 3: Nice, nice, all right. We'll be right back after this

542
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 3: break with the losers of the NBA Weekend. Don't go anywhere.

543
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 3: I'm gonna start saying Mary Chiching two people and a

544
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 3: Mary Chachin as well. It sounds fun. Actually, season, Okay,

545
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 3: we've done winners of the NBA Weekend. Let's pivot, let's

546
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 3: do losers tests. Who's at the top of your naughty

547
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 3: list here?

548
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors because they had a bit of a

549
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: day job against okay See a few weeks ago. Remember

550
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: Chet Holmgren hit a huge three a tie game going

551
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,479
Speaker 1: into that buzzer at the end of regulation, so they

552
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: go into overtime. They beat Golden State. They also had

553
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 1: some discussions say, maybe we should have fouled him, so

554
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 1: maybe he goes to the free throw line. Flash forward Friday,

555
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: okay See inbounding down three and eight seconds left. Draymond

556
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: Green kind of went for the steal and he was

557
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: just a little out of place. Check caught it and

558
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: Draymond Green fouled him too late. If he didn't go

559
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: for that steal, maybe the foul puts him on the floor,

560
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: but Chet was shooting. He goes to the free throw line,

561
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 1: hits all three. They win in overtime. It's it's also

562
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: kind of a deja vous because of how they turned

563
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 1: it over. They had twenty nine turnovers against okay See

564
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: on Friday, the most ever in the Coach Kerr Area

565
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: Area era. The last two were Curry throwing a horrendous

566
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,520
Speaker 1: pass just no reason and Draymond Green throwing it into

567
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 1: the crowd. So they're doing some things that they've been

568
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: doing recently. They blew a twenty four point lead to

569
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: Sacramento late turnovers, just throwing it around, same thing, and

570
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: other turnovers causing them to blow other leads. They blew

571
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: a twenty two point lead against the Clippers, and then

572
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: they've blown a fourteen and eighteen point lead to Oka

573
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 1: See in two games. If they win those games, they

574
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: don't give up those huge, huge leads. They're fourteen and eight.

575
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: They are now ten to twelve after starting five and one.

576
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 1: It's the roller coaster. They are at the bond with

577
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 1: this roller coaster. They're relying on the vets to just

578
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: figure things and figure things out. Sometimes they do, sometimes

579
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: they absolutely do not. They're fighting through it. They're absolutely

580
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,639
Speaker 1: fighting through it, and they're playing Jonathan Cominga to join

581
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: the old guys, but they just can't not turn it

582
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: over at times, and they just kind of give up

583
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: on when they have big leads. So that's that's very

584
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 1: strange to see that.

585
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 3: It feels like the turnover issue has been sort of

586
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 3: one thing that's always plagued this team, even throughout the Dynasties.

587
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 3: It's like when they do get lucy goosey with it

588
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 3: or just make weird decisions and that can come back

589
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 3: to bite them in the ass. But yeah, I didn't

590
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 3: I didn't realize they had blown that many games already

591
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,199
Speaker 3: this season. I know, fifteen point lean really isn't much anymore,

592
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 3: but still, when you're getting up into the twenties, that

593
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 3: counts for a little bit.

594
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one was fourteen, No big deal, right Like,

595
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 4: that was a smooth blowing of the lead. Yeah, turnovers

596
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 4: have always been a problem for the Warriors. That was

597
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 4: a big supposed advantage of having Chris Paul the season

598
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 4: is that he would help maintain possession of the ball.

599
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 4: But at this point, the Warriors have just taken enough

600
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 4: of a step backwards that the fact that they turn

601
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 4: the ball over like they do, they just can't make

602
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 4: up for it, right, Like, they can't overcome.

603
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 2: That as a disadvantage.

604
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean disappointing for the Warriors to lose

605
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 4: yet another game at home as well, to lose it

606
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 4: the exact opposite way that he lost the first time.

607
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 4: And you're totally right, task that was just a bad

608
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 4: gamble by Draymond. If they're planning on fouling when the

609
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,479
Speaker 4: ball is inbounded, he should have just focused on fouling.

610
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 4: I mean, you see the ball drifting over your head,

611
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 4: on standable to want to take a chance at it,

612
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 4: but that chance is what sent the game to overtime.

613
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: For sure.

614
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 3: I would like to give a loser of the weekend

615
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 3: no surprise here to the Detroit Pistons, who are two

616
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 3: and twenty now. To quote Will Hardy, the Pistons season

617
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 3: is a masterpiece of dog shit, because Holy Moley, the

618
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 3: Magic punk them on Friday Night one twenty three to

619
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 3: ninety one. This is the Piston's nineteenth consecutive loss. That's

620
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 3: the longest single season losing streak in franchise history, and

621
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: it's tied for the ninth longest such streaking NBA history.

622
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: The NBA record is twenty six. They're getting close here,

623
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 3: set by the twenty ten to eleven Calves matched by

624
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: the twenty thirteen fourteen six Ers. Twenty six games in

625
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 3: a row. That's a lot of losses in a row,

626
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 3: and they're at nineteen Troy. You said it last week.

627
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 3: I believe their next seven games now for Detroit, the Pacers,

628
00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 3: the Sixers, the Sixers, the Bucks, the Hawks, the Jazz,

629
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 3: and the Nets. I mean, you're the Detroit Pistons. Nothing

630
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 3: looks like an easy win at all anymore. It doesn't

631
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 3: matter who you're playing. Maybe maybe it's a Hawks or

632
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 3: a Jazz or a Nets, but you don't.

633
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 2: Think they're getting the win tonight.

634
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 4: Pacers had nothing to play for now, man, just a

635
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 4: boring old regular season game.

636
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, look they're going to hope for a Yeah,

637
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 3: some sort of Vegas hangover ist hangover maybe, but I

638
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 3: wouldn't bet on it. No, So look, hopefully they win

639
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 3: one of these in the next seven games, so we

640
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 3: don't have them tying it or beating it, because I

641
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: guess the eighth game a potential record on the line

642
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 3: if they keep losing. Here would be against the Nets

643
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 3: at home a day after Christmas. Some Christmas gift to

644
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 3: get to your fans were the worst of all time,

645
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 3: But James Edwards is the third has a great article

646
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 3: up on The Athletic today, just talking about the idea

647
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 3: of like, yes, they're very bad. A lot of people

648
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 3: thought maybe they would be knocking on a play in

649
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 3: you know, sort of spot that's not happening. But don't

650
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,239
Speaker 3: panic trade, don't get crazy moving off one of your

651
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 3: young guys, because Edwards writes, they have four players the

652
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 3: Piston Zoo with the age skills, Slash Athleticism and Cache

653
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 3: to be labeled as all star upside, not saying they're

654
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 3: all stars, but the idea that down the line they

655
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 3: could be Kid Cunningham, Jade and Ivy, Asar Thompson and

656
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 3: Jalen Duran and those four players have played eleven games

657
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 3: total together. So again Edward's point in the article is

658
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 3: do something sure, just don't do something drastic where you

659
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 3: potentially trade one of these guys who have barely played together.

660
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 3: Now you could argue, well, you don't believe in Kate

661
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 3: Cunningham being a guy, you don't think Ivy is a

662
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 3: part of the mix. Whatever, But it's an interesting article.

663
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 3: I highly recommend you go check it out to the

664
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 3: Athletic dot com. Slash no does get a subscription. But yeah,

665
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 3: it's bad and this is going to be in play here.

666
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 3: I think we're gonna get into the twenties, I believe,

667
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 3: and then it gets really really dicey to have that

668
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 3: all time streak thoughts.

669
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna beat the Pacers tonight.

670
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, okay, and I'm with you.

671
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 4: They shouldn't trade any of their young guys, but at

672
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 4: least boy and Bogdanovic's back, so they should trade him.

673
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

674
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: The old guys that they have, boy On, Alec Burks,

675
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: who's playing a lot for some reason, Joe Harrison, those

676
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: old knees. Unfortunately doesn't look good right now. In Monte Morris,

677
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 1: who could come back even though they have many many guards. Yeah,

678
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: I don't feel good about this pair Pacers win just

679
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 1: because after the game they said, I know it's not

680
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: on our schedule, is a regular season game, but we

681
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:32,479
Speaker 1: want to make up for it.

682
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 3: We want to Yeah, they'll take the Pacers tonight, but again,

683
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 3: my gut says they pull out one of these victories

684
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 3: before we get to that record tying twenty sixth loss

685
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 3: or twenty seventh to get at their own. The Hawks,

686
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,240
Speaker 3: the Jazz, the Jazz, I mean the Jazz.

687
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Jazz are going under the radar.

688
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 4: It's one of the worst teams in the league here,

689
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 4: so that should be a competitive one at the very.

690
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 3: Least, you know, maybe the six to take their foot

691
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 3: off the guests playing them two in a row here,

692
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 3: we'll see. But it's bad and uh well, we can

693
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 3: just leave it at that. The Pistons loser of the weekend, Trey,

694
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 3: who you got?

695
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 4: I got the Knicks as a loser of the weekend,

696
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 4: fairly played once. Like all these teams, they lost to

697
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 4: the Celtics. They trailed the entire second half. You know,

698
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 4: understandable loss. I think, all things considered, everybody's taking the

699
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 4: Celtics in that one. But they're getting a loser here

700
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 4: because the next may have gotten Tom Thibodeaud here down

701
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 4: twelve twenty seconds remaining. Basically all the Celtics starters are out,

702
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 4: but Randall's on the floor.

703
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: R J.

704
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 4: Barrett's on the floor, and worst of all, Jalen Brunson

705
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 4: is on the floor stepped on Peyton Pritchard's foot, a

706
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 4: weird rolling.

707
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: Of the ankle.

708
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 4: He just like steps backwards as the ball is getting

709
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 4: inbounded rolls his left ankle. He's listed as questionable for

710
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 4: tonight's game against the Raptors.

711
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 2: Tibb says he's good to go.

712
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 4: If you've followed Tom Thibodeau's coaching career, he has a

713
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 4: notable injury in his past, keeping the players in for

714
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 4: way too long. I mean, they will be lucky if

715
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 4: they dodged the bullet. With regards to Jalen Brunson, apparently

716
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 4: he went to some Villanova thing where he was honored

717
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 4: and he was walking around okay at that, So that's good.

718
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 4: But the bad news is they're definitely gonna be without

719
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 4: Mitchell Robinson. The Knicks will he's missing the Toronto game

720
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 4: due to his own ankle injury. He said he took

721
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 4: a wrong step about a week ago, but it showed

722
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 4: up against the Celtics. Bad bad timing. They play the

723
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 4: Raptors at home tonight, then a five game road trip

724
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 4: for New York. They got the Jazz, Suns, Clippers, Lakers,

725
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 4: Nets kind of in the middle with regards to schedule wise,

726
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 4: but they just gave up one hundred and forty six

727
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 4: points to the Milwaukee Bucks. They gave up one hundred

728
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 4: and thirty three to the Celtics. We know the Suns, Clippers,

729
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 4: and Lakers are amongst the best teams in the league,

730
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:41,959
Speaker 4: so they should likely be able to score on New

731
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 4: York as well. And with Mitchell Robinson gone, it's hard

732
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 4: to see their defense improving in the next couple of

733
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 4: weeks here, So hopefully he is out for a short time.

734
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 4: Hopefully they're able to get Jalen Brunson back tonight against

735
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 4: the Raptors and he doesn't suffer any kind of additional

736
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 4: injury playing on a soar left ankle. But two starters

737
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 4: when you're having one of your worst weeks of the season,

738
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 4: not great.

739
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, And they've also sort of like from twenty games

740
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 3: in here, it's pretty apparent that the Knicks are like

741
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 3: a classic Tier two team, like they are not with

742
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 3: these elite teams in the Eastern Conference. They seem to

743
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 3: lose to them a lot, but they're good enough that

744
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 3: they beat all the teams sort of around them or

745
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 3: below them, you know, like our Raptors and and you know,

746
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 3: obviously the Hornets and Pistons they take care of like

747
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 3: they can win all those games. It's just like they're

748
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 3: like right in the middle of their task. It feels

749
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 3: like sort of once again. And you know, Knicks fans

750
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,760
Speaker 3: are not the most patient fans of all time, I believe,

751
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 3: even though they've had a lot of losing streaks or

752
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 3: seasons excuse me, and have had some success recently. But

753
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 3: you just wonder when that continues to happen, does that

754
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 3: make you more likely to go try and make a

755
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,879
Speaker 3: big splash in a deal to get maybe a star

756
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,320
Speaker 3: to help you compete with those sort of upper echelon teams.

757
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: I definitely need a score because the defense has been

758
00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: figured out. They do fantastic on them for TIBs, they

759
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 1: just dial in. That being said, if Mitchell Robinson is

760
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: out for a long period of time, that's not a

761
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: good thing. And he's prone to some injuries over his career.

762
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: He has been heard, but he has been so so

763
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: good just getting after it.

764
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 3: Let's go to you again here, Tess. You got another loser.

765
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

766
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: The Warriors head coach Steve Kirk because he recently said

767
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:24,760
Speaker 1: something about the Phoenix Sun's DJ the music being played

768
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 1: in there that he despises. He just hates it. Although

769
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: the Sun's DJ he loved it. So he created a

770
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: mix of Steve Kerr and his music. We've got it here, JD.

771
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 6: You know what, in this building, you can't hear anything

772
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 6: because it's like a club. It's like a South Beach club.

773
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 6: It's just is thumping techno club music, thumping techno club music,

774
00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 6: thumping tech no club music. Don't pay.

775
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 3: A head.

776
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: Coach said something about hating techno music, and this guy

777
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: just said, all right, I'm gonna chew that up and

778
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: play it for you. He hated he He did say

779
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,919
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I'm talking about techno music this way,

780
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 1: but he just hates how loud it wasn't there. He

781
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 1: just complained about it being loud one game. So Sons

782
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: DJ said all right, I got this, and he created

783
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: a mix that's gonna get everybody chiled up in there.

784
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 3: Was that their halftime show, just the old DJ. I

785
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 3: mean it was fine, It was entertaining, but didn't have

786
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 3: really much book that night. Did they. Maybe they're in Phoenix,

787
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 3: I guess must. I don't know. Maybe that was before

788
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 3: I don't think it was before the game. But it

789
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,320
Speaker 3: felt like a halftime show.

790
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,320
Speaker 2: Or at least like we're throwing T shirts.

791
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 3: Yeah about that. They looked almost like two set up

792
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 3: for that to me because they got to be pretty

793
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 3: quick with that. But anyway, very funny. Yeah, also a

794
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 3: bit of a banger. Steve Carron.

795
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 2: Was that Benny Banassi satisfaction?

796
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:12,439
Speaker 3: I think it was?

797
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 4: Was it?

798
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: Yeah?

799
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 4: I would have to check in with Sweet Murf Baby

800
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 4: number one. He was the biggest Benny Bonassi fan I've

801
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 4: ever known in my life.

802
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 3: Cool. I remember that song. Yeah, I didn't know who's

803
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 3: that or or made it a right. I have a

804
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 3: weekend loser to a guy named Dustin Doparak of the

805
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 3: Indianapolis Star. And here's why that. I'm taking a shot

806
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 3: at Dustin of the Indie Star. This guy played the

807
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 3: ultimate homer card over the weekend because he got a

808
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 3: vote in the n season Tournament MVP, and being from Indianapolis,

809
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 3: he gave that vote to Tyrese Haliburton in the loss.

810
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 3: No again, we were told is for the whole tournament.

811
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 3: So fair to Dustin, but that's a bit of a stretch.

812
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 3: I think you gotta go lebron A going undefeated, sort

813
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 3: of taking care of business tour in the final. But

814
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 3: he played the homer card. I almost respect it. And

815
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 3: you know, we got the media panel here, we got

816
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 3: to at least see how they all voted. But what

817
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 3: do you think? You know, we're we're always called the

818
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 3: Homers for talking about our wraps and bulls. Would you do?

819
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 3: Would you go that far? TK?

820
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 4: I probably would hold it back if I had the

821
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 4: word indie in my outlet name. It's too obvious there.

822
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 4: What happened with the fan vote though? I don't understand

823
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 4: how that works. I saw the number one, number two,

824
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 4: and number three fan votes went to Lebron, but four

825
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 4: and five went to Halliburton.

826
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, what did that? I don't know. Did they do

827
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,319
Speaker 3: it five times and they just never told us?

828
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: How did you even vote for it?

829
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe the fans all voted in so

830
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: they just kind of waited and the third highest or

831
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:57,839
Speaker 1: the three highest went to Lebron somehow. But then, well,

832
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 1: you know, a million fans vote and there was enough

833
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: to vote for the top three for Lebron. But anyway, yeah,

834
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,919
Speaker 1: well that the more confusing part to me, I don't

835
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: care how it came in is there's five fan votes

836
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: on that ballot, but there's about twenty five media members,

837
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: So how much percentage do the fans get to vote

838
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,359
Speaker 1: for the m VP? Like if you have so many

839
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 1: media and.

840
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 3: Why is there five fan votes? And when were these happening?

841
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 3: Like these were happening after group play and semifinals and finals,

842
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 3: these were happening every quarter of this game.

843
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: Like what I imagine this after the finals, but after

844
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: after the final? There? But but why were there five?

845
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 3: Yeah?

846
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: It makes there were five. There were five because they

847
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 1: gave everything to the media members. That's why I think

848
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:50,959
Speaker 1: the Probably I'm guessing, but.

849
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 4: Who knows, Well, I don't know. Maybe hot Dog is right.

850
00:39:53,560 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 4: Maybe they just picked five random fans. That specific five

851
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 4: fans we found him said, who do you think is MVP?

852
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 3: Honestly, that makes more sense at least on this graphic.

853
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 3: Found five people and the three of them were wearing

854
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 3: Lakers jerseys and two we're wearing pass jerseys. And everybody

855
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 3: played the homework card like Dustin. I guess, okay, so

856
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 3: just a small loser of the weekend there to Dustin?

857
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,479
Speaker 3: Anything else? Anyone else?

858
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: Noah, I like what Dustin did? Why not?

859
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 3: I mean, it's ultimately doesn't matter.

860
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: Exactly, but but the A Cup.

861
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 3: Could have been we could have been tied between Lebron

862
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 3: and a D you know, we could have had that

863
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 3: hypothetical scenario and that vote does matter. Task, every vote matters.

864
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:36,439
Speaker 3: You're always telling me.

865
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 1: Well, back in the day, yeah, when you vote for

866
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 1: uh back, Yeah, weird ones. When there are weird ones

867
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,319
Speaker 1: for NBA Rookie of the Year, like your vote for

868
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 1: Andrea Barnianni. Come on, but I like it. Okay, let's

869
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 1: not dust Dustin. I think he did.

870
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:58,959
Speaker 3: All right, we gotta take one more break, but when

871
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 3: we come back. I had a bunch of tweets from
