Speaker 1: Stars Game, Maybe a weggie in the All Star Game.

26
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: Would we count a weggie in the three point contest?

27
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,759
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're gonna find out watching it live together.

28
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 2: Oh that would be sad.

29
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 1: If you stuck a wedgie and ye shot, we would

30
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: be awesome.

31
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, stop the clock, Yeah, you keep going. Maybe like those.

32
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: Guys that get the balls. The men and women are

33
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: so athletic that they have one person out there that

34
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: can jump up and pop it out right away, just

35
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: to keep the float going. Yeah, that'd be awesome. Get

36
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,279
Speaker 1: a room, pop it fingers crossed. We get a weggie

37
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: in the three point contest? All right, we'll get into

38
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: is this news later? But, like I said, a ridiculous

39
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: fourteen NBA games on last night. We would usually with

40
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: a busy schedule like that draft our favorite games or

41
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: our favorite performances. But we've caught Olympic fever here in

42
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: the Classic Factory. So instead, let's hand out some medals

43
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: in a new segment we're calling the NBA Podio.

44
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you've been watching the Double Louge. One of the

45
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: weirdest events we got, just insane when you think about it.

46
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: Lay on me so crazy of the weirdness, for sure.

47
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,120
Speaker 1: But we're gonna hand out some golds, some silvers, and

48
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: some bronze and our ribbons don't break here on no

49
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: dunks to last night's best games or best performances or

50
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: whatever you want to do. Task you geta started. You

51
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: got the first gold medal to hand out. Where you

52
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 1: want to start, We'll.

53
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 2: Start with the Los Angeles Clippers.

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: Gold goes to the Clippers and especially Kawhi Leonard for

55
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 4: scoring nineteen points in the fourth quarter to get them

56
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 4: to win in Hue. This is how you take it

57
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,399
Speaker 4: into the All Star weekend.

58
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 2: In your read.

59
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 4: Had to show off the into it, don't because it's

60
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 4: gonna look cool. That being said, I didn't think they

61
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 4: were gonna win this game. Late third quarter, I thought

62
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 4: the Rockets had it reed Shepherd hit a shot for them,

63
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 4: so a third It was a three pointer and he

64
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: was in the corner, just in front of his own bench.

65
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 4: He got into a little bit of a squad. I

66
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 4: thought he was taking a poop on the floor there.

67
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 4: I thought he was showing that we won this game.

68
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 4: Put a little poop emoji under that. But but fourth

69
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 4: quarter Clippers turned it on. Kawhi of course was big,

70
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 4: but really it was their energetic defense that got this

71
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 4: thing going. Brook Lopez was huge. He stolen from Reed Shepherd,

72
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 4: he poked out of Reed Shepherd's hands, and I thought

73
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 4: he was doing a great job against Alper and Sheng Gun.

74
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 4: You could hear Alper and she Gun have a mid

75
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: range shot that he turned down because Brooke was just

76
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 4: there and you could hear him on the audio. Ah

77
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 4: just scream because Brooke matched him in this game. I

78
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 4: thought the energy defensively from Benedict Mathern was great. He

79
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: had a big block on Alper and Chng Gun that

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 4: helped out. He had drive. He wasn't really comfortable on

81
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 4: offense in this game quite yet with his new team,

82
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 4: but he went to the free throw line ten times.

83
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: So they just kept on turning over. Yeah, that's his thing.

84
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 4: He kept on turning over along without the other defenders

85
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 4: the Rockets, who had seven turnovers in the fourth quarter.

86
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 4: Big part of that. Also, Kawhi. It's Kawhi. Leonard Baby

87
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 4: with steel got out in transition. Clippers out fast breaks

88
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 4: the Houston Rockets twenty two to two in this game,

89
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 4: and you just watch Kawhi go on go into that mode.

90
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 4: He was so good, splitting defenders, getting to the rams,

91
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 4: spins whatever you want in the spin on the game

92
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 4: winning shot with two seconds left to give them the

93
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 4: lead and one it's over baby, Kawhi.

94
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: Wow, wow, Wow. What can you say about this guy? Now?

95
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 4: Thirty three straight games of twenty plus points?

96
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 2: Pretty good? Pretty good.

97
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: This a good game. Is one of the closer games

98
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: from last night, so well, deserving of a gold medal,

99
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: especially with the shot like you said that Kawhi hit there, Yeah,

100
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: at the end and then coming back. I'm with you.

101
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: I thought the Rockets had it. I was like, oh, damn,

102
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: beat the same team when they're a good team like

103
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: the Clippers are have been for the last little while.

104
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: To beat him twice in a row, Becau, this was

105
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: the weird sort of like baseball series whatever we call

106
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: these things. But yeah, the Clippers get it out. Yeah

107
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: this was the double but they split it and that

108
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: was a big part of that defense.

109
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 2: Like you said there, Yeah was surprising.

110
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was awesome.

111
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 5: QUI switched on to Kevin Durant and turned his water off.

112
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 5: That was pretty sweet to see those two going at

113
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 5: it like it was twenty seventeen all over again. It

114
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 5: really slowed the Rockets offense down, Like I think they're

115
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 5: pretty clunky regardless, but once Kawhi went on to Kevin Durant,

116
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 5: it was taking him fourteen seconds to even get their

117
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 5: offense started. Still got some good shots, like Kadie missed

118
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 5: an open one from the right wing, but it was

119
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 5: the free throws that really doomed the Rockets him, kd

120
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 5: and Shangoon both missed clutch ones and they could have

121
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 5: easily won that game. They probably should have won that game,

122
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 5: but Kawhi pulled it through.

123
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, twenty one turnovers to the Rockets for the Rockets,

124
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 4: nine for the Clippers. Duran had eight turnovers. Yeah, and yeah,

125
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 4: Kawhi getting into that mode. He did it to Men

126
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 4: Thompson who was a really good defender and just was

127
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 4: able to get enough space, just enough space. Even though

128
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 4: Jay Jon Tate was coming over to hit that shot.

129
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 4: Everybody thought it was the game winer Clippers broadcasters.

130
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: Said that's the game or Clippers win. He thought it

131
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: was over.

132
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 4: There's two seconds on right but he goes to the

133
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 4: free throw line. The debate should he have missed that?

134
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 4: Either way, they go up three and then other Rockets

135
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: had a good look to tie it didn't go down.

136
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: I'm glad you showed some love there to Brook Lopez too,

137
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: who he really really good recently as the Clippers have

138
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: turned their season around. Clippers are twenty six and twenty eight,

139
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: almost back to five hundred after the abysmal six and

140
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 1: twenty one start to the season, and Brooke was like,

141
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: we were like going, what the hell's wrong with him?

142
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: He was bad at the start of the season, But yeah,

143
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: more recently him and like Done is great because they're

144
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: out there for defensive purposes. But man, sure helps when

145
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: they can hit some threes. Like Brook, Yeah, you you

146
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: expected him to come around with a three point shot,

147
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: but for Chris Dunn to hit four to six last night,

148
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: that's found money. So that's always going to help because

149
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: he's out there for defensive reasons. All right, Clips win

150
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: get the gold medal here, t k, let's go to you.

151
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: Who gets the gold for you?

152
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 5: I like the Pacers Nets game, a huge game in

153
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 5: the reverse standings, huge tank win for the Nets, losing

154
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 5: to a no name Pacers team.

155
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: No Siakam, no Nemhard, no Nie Smith. For the Pacers.

156
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 5: They were running out lineups with Taylor, Peter Ethan Thompson,

157
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 5: Vinnie Ladon, Andre Varani Jones.

158
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: For once. You don't know those.

159
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: Three of those five are real players. I know the Pacers.

160
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 5: Last night Pacers were down eighteen, came back and beat

161
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 5: the Nets. Second straight win for the Pacers. Uh oh,

162
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,239
Speaker 5: they're not tied with Brooklyn at fifteen wins, still fourth

163
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 5: in lottery odds because they've played an extra two games.

164
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 5: Lost both of those. But the next couple of games

165
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 5: that Indiana has are a Wizard's back to back in

166
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 5: Washington right after the All Star break.

167
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: They could mess up and win those two games. I

168
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: probably will.

169
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 5: I mean literally, who knows, literally, who knows who will

170
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 5: play for any of these team because this was shameless

171
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 5: tanking from the Pacers, but it came back to bite

172
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 5: him in the end. A fun game though, five ties

173
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 5: or lead changes in the final four minutes here, I

174
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 5: thought the Nets were gonna pull it out. After day

175
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 5: Ron Sharp got a steal at the top of the key,

176
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 5: got a bucket, scam Jones. There two brutal turnovers, a

177
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 5: pass to nobody on the right wing, and then got

178
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 5: his pocket picked by Sharp at half court. But then

179
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 5: he was cam Stones pulling up to hit a three

180
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 5: to put the Pacers up for good. I was kind

181
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: of impressed though, by the Nets guys Nolan Triore and

182
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 5: Yegor Jieman twenty and eight. For Triore, we just talked

183
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 5: about him coming off a thirteen and thirteen game. To me,

184
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 5: he looks like he plays left handed, but he's a

185
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 5: right handed guy. Seems weird every time he shoots it

186
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 5: with his right hand. And then Joeman thirteen points, five assists,

187
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 5: made a big three from the corner as well. Those

188
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 5: guys have at least seemed interesting to me during these

189
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 5: games that don't really matter for the Brooklyn Nets. They're

190
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 5: getting a lot of development minutes, and they both have

191
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 5: at least flashes of being something sort of interesting. I

192
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 5: saw somebody compare him to when a Deer and Fox

193
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 5: and Tyrese Halliburton played on the same team for the

194
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 5: Kings from four seconds. I would say probably a poor

195
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 5: man's version of that. But they've both been a little

196
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 5: more impressive than I was expecting coming into this season.

197
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, Nolan Trre was in the G League and it

198
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 4: worked him up very slowly and perfectly. It looks like

199
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 4: he contributes. He could be one of those names amongst

200
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 4: just casual fans that would be very surprised to hear

201
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 4: that name. Nolan Troer, NBA player, one of the French

202
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 4: is one of the French players that is contributing obviously

203
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,719
Speaker 4: at this point. But yeah, those were they seem like

204
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 4: fake names that you're dropping there, Cam Jones, even the yeah,

205
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 4: the Camstones. As you said, that was his first shot

206
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 4: three of the game, Like he wasn't hitting any of them.

207
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: Many of that one.

208
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't need the same save the game tape

209
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: of this one. If you watch down the stretch, there

210
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: are some hilarious turnovers and not really for defense, and

211
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: there's just guys jumping in the air, no idea what

212
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: to do, throw it in losing their dribble was hilariously sloppy.

213
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: At one point inbounded to no one. Yes, Joe had

214
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: to run that as he could don't to try and

215
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 1: save it. He was out of bounds. It was a disaster,

216
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 1: but it was exciting, very exciting. Again. One of the

217
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: closer results last night, like yours, was pretty close, and

218
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: so is mine my gold medal game, because I'll give

219
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: it to Brandon Miller scoring thirty one as the Hornets

220
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: held off to beat the Hawks sad Cacaw. But Charlotte

221
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: keeps it going here as they go into the All

222
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: Star break, Brandon Miller tray, he's coming for that Best

223
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 1: Brandon Ever award. Wow, that's the real gold here. I

224
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: love that short that you did recently. It started with

225
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: a weird conversation we had here in the Classic Factory.

226
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: Who is the best Brandon ever? Could Brandon Ingram become?

227
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 3: That is it?

228
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: Brandon Roy But b I's gonna take it. And then

229
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: you say at the end of that clip that you did,

230
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: I don't know Brandon Miller could be in play here.

231
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: He's on a heater right now. Thirty one points nine rebounds.

232
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: Hornets short two guys because of the suspensions, no diabate,

233
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: no moose, no bridges. But it was okay because you

234
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: had Brandon Miller leading the way here. Threw down two

235
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,719
Speaker 1: monster dunks in like the span of two minutes in

236
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: the third quarter, one off a beautiful you know, baseline

237
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: play that Charles League drew up. He just sort of

238
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: went around Calc Brenner and then LaMelo threw the perfect

239
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 1: lob Reeschet lost him. He like went to chase something.

240
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:19,599
Speaker 1: He's like, no, I'm not gonna meet him on the

241
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: other way. Nope, through that in the dunk. And then

242
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 1: Brandon Miller had a huge one in fast break on

243
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: a cong Wu or I guess he blew bay at

244
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: the three point line and threw it down on a

245
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: Congouo that was huge. Also hit five threes, Brandon Miller

246
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: did as the Horns pick up their tenth win here

247
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 1: in eleven games. Again, Charlotte messed around a little too much.

248
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: I let the Hawks get back into it, and they

249
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: had a couple of chances, especially the best opportunity to

250
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: the Hawks. They were down one sort of a two

251
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: on one fast break after a long rebound miss, and

252
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,839
Speaker 1: they're going and Dyson Daniels he gives the ball to

253
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: a cong Wu, gives it to the big man in transition.

254
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: I think if that's anyone else and not Dyson Daniels,

255
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: the guard probably keeps it at least penetrates a little

256
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: bit more to draw the defense. Anyway, Brandan Miller played

257
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 1: it well on a cong Wu, didn't foul, moved his

258
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: feet in a kong Wu. He's a big guy intrances.

259
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: He lost it out on him and that was a big,

260
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: big play because they probably should have scored there at

261
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: least went to the line. And then they had another look.

262
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: He had a three point look that just came up short.

263
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: And yeah, it kind of poor decision making from a

264
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: cong Wu on.

265
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 5: Both of those plays, like get into Miller's body, get

266
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 5: into his body and then he catches it at the top.

267
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 5: Miller's in the right place. He's like shading to the

268
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 5: right of a cong Wu, and a Congwu had just

269
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,719
Speaker 5: hit a shot where he like pumped faked to the

270
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 5: right and shot the three. He tried it again, but

271
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 5: if he waited like a split second, McCollum was wide

272
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 5: open on the right wing.

273
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: He just couldn't get him the ball. So missed those.

274
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: But you're right.

275
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 5: The Hornets went into prevent offense. Basically, they slowed down.

276
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 5: They were taking forever to get into their sets, and

277
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 5: then the Hawks started forcing turnovers making shots. There was

278
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 5: a foul three point shooter at one point. It was

279
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 5: a play in like atmosphere there and Charlotte. It sounded awesome.

280
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 1: It was great. Yeah, the crowd is really getting behind

281
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: this team, which is pretty fun. Here they make their

282
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: way you know, obviously in the plan, and they're trying

283
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 1: to catch some other teams ahead of them.

284
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a good win.

285
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 4: Obviously, they jumped the Atlanta Hawks in the standings now

286
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 4: ninth in the plan. Good for that, big big win,

287
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 4: good for everybody. Great for Eric Collins. On the call,

288
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 4: he was dropping the how do you do plenty because

289
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 4: everybody's super excited. It seemed like he had so much

290
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 4: information on the sheets in front of him. He had

291
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,719
Speaker 4: a fact for this, a wild fact for this, a

292
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 4: wild fact for this. I think the most important one

293
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 4: was that Brandon Miller has now hit fifty three consecutive

294
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 4: free throws, tying the franchise high of Kemba Walker.

295
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 2: And everybody knew it. Kemba Walker was on.

296
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 5: Oh, he was smilingly about like Hank Aaron, Barry Bonds

297
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 5: passing Hank Aaron.

298
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: You got to see him pass this record.

299
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 4: It.

300
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,439
Speaker 1: It was pretty funny too, because they didn't want to

301
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: do the old broadcaster jinx at all once they got there.

302
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 1: That was the longest Eric Collins has remained quiet in

303
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: his career because there was like sort of a mix

304
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: up at the line and it took a little longer,

305
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: and it was just like crickets because they didn't want

306
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: to say anything for Thoud then miss it. But yeah,

307
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: he tied him, So fifty three straight. Do you know

308
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: what the NBA's all time record is for most consecutive

309
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 1: free throws made? Ninety seven? Close? No, you nailed it,

310
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: ninety seven? How is that calderon?

311
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 5: No?

312
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: Oh no, you'll never get it. You'll never get the guy.

313
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: It's Michael Williams, who was a nineties journeyman. All right,

314
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: He played on a bunch of teams, but he did

315
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: it with the Timberwolves. He did ninety seven straight at

316
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: the Charity Stripe over two seasons, like the March ninety

317
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 1: three till November ninety three, same calendar year task Does

318
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: that count for you over the span of two.

319
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 2: Seas but one season one streak?

320
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: That's right, Michael Williams spelled his name m I cch

321
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: E A L two. That's not usually how it's spelled.

322
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: Call me by surprise anyway.

323
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: That was a mistake on the birth certificate.

324
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: Maybe three other guys have hit eighty plus free throws

325
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: in a row, Jose Calderon for the Raptors, Dirk Novitski

326
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: for the Mavericks, and Machmoud Abdul Revu with the Nuggets

327
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: also in ninety three. All right, that's it, So four

328
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 1: guys over eighty plus. Brandon Miller's got a way to

329
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: go still, but he could get there.

330
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: Get there.

331
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 4: He was asked about it after the game. He's already

332
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 4: in a vet mode for the way he interviews. He's

333
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 4: I'm not not answering that question. He just knows, he's

334
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 4: he's just quick. He just doesn't want to answer the questions.

335
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 4: He said, I'm not not answering that. Basically, I'm working.

336
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: I'm workshopping this right now, so help me out. But

337
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 1: is there a nickname Bucky potentially in play for Brandon

338
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: Miller because of the heavily taped left arm. That reminds

339
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: me of Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier in the winter Soldier.

340
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Miller is hooping during the winter here too. Maybe

341
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: soldier and Brandon Miller. We don't want to make that correlation. Possibly,

342
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: but Bucky, I don't know it works. That's crazy his arm, Yeah,

343
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: how taped it is. It's like looks bionic. It's taped up. Hell, yeah,

344
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: that's well, it's taped up. He's not his shooting arm though.

345
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: I always think he's a left handed guy. Yeah, I

346
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: don't know why. Maybe it's because the arm as a

347
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: Bucky's left arm. I think it's his left Yeah, his

348
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: left kind of ok.

349
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: I thought we're going teeth like Bucky's teeth.

350
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 1: No, No, he's got great teeth. Ye, Bucky Barnes, you

351
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 1: familiar with the Winter Soldier.

352
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, the Winter that's a left Okay, James, you

353
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: know all this stuff that's his left arm?

354
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 5: Right?

355
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: Oh god, I have no idea it is.

356
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

357
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: The Hornets head into the All Star Break fifteen and

358
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: seven since the start of the calendar year with Bucky

359
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 1: leading the way there. What does that make Lamello? What's

360
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: superhero with Lamello ballby? Well, I mean he can't be

361
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: Captain of America. That's a ridiculous Captain of America. Also,

362
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: Bucky hanging out with mo what's his name?

363
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 5: You know, the guy that uh, please don't look at

364
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 5: him in Civil War, the guy that like engineers the

365
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 5: entire plot to reactivate Bucky as the Winter Soldier.

366
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: Oh, how helmet Zmo.

367
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 6: Yeah.

368
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 2: I was gonna say Nemo, but it's not Nemo helmet.

369
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, maybe that Okay, maybe I will leave

370
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: it at Bucky. Let us know if I did write

371
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: down another note that I like you. Hear this from

372
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: Eric Collins a lot.

373
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 5: When there's a really ugly possession for the Hornets, but

374
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 5: they ended up scoring, he.

375
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: Yells, chicken salad.

376
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 2: That's beautiful.

377
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: All right, let's go from the gold medal performances to

378
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: these silver games here tasks, where are you going?

379
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 2: I'm going with the Utah Jazz. They're two and oh.

380
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 4: Since everybody accused them of tanking, this was a huge SmackDown.

381
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 4: They beat the Kings, no, no problem. But it was

382
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 4: great for Jae Jackson Junior to go home his home debut.

383
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 4: He looked great, and he didn't have to play the

384
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 4: fourth or so. They got off well. Because listen, they're

385
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 4: managing everybody's minutes. They're making sure they don't play the

386
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 4: fourth quarter. But because Jaron Jackson Junior and everybody else

387
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 4: was they're kicking the King's ass, they didn't need to

388
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 4: play a fourth quarter. His drives were so under control

389
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 4: as going to his left hand plenty. He was looking

390
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 4: at that left pulling it up. Yeah, I'm doing with

391
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 4: my left twenty three points, wearing number twenty and honorous

392
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 4: Pops only played twenty two minutes. Lots of twenties there,

393
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 4: and no one had to be a superstar. That's why

394
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 4: they went and got Jaron Jackson Junior, so Lowry Market

395
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 4: wouldn't have to do as much. And you saw Lowry

396
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 4: out there, nineteen points in just twenty minutes, didn't have

397
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 4: to play the fourth quarter. He was running that seven

398
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,200
Speaker 4: foot one runner out there as they won fast breaks

399
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 4: twenty five to six. You could see him sprinting down

400
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 4: the floor at home, beautiful purple floor with our new guy,

401
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 4: Jared Jackson Junior, were going to do this, and he

402
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 4: was getting those awesome hook passes. He got one hook

403
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 4: pass from Usef Nurkic as Lowry Market just right through

404
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 4: the lane, a great pass. Nurkic also set Kevin Love

405
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 4: up with a great hook pass since Nurkic tweeted that

406
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 4: what the are we doing? Essentially the Lowry mark and

407
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 4: and shrug again, they're two and oh, no Cante George

408
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 4: in this game because he's hurt. They're not just sitting

409
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 4: him out, but good for them. Good for them, they've

410
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: won games again because they didn't need to play their

411
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 4: guys that much. Essentially, I still think Will Hardy will

412
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 4: sit his guys in the fourth quarter like tonight, if

413
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 4: they have a close game against the Portland Trail Blazers,

414
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 4: I imagine play again.

415
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:35,719
Speaker 2: You're right, yeah, right.

416
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,239
Speaker 1: Any thoughts on Jazz Kings here.

417
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,160
Speaker 5: You simply can't out take the Kings. It's impossible. Fourteen

418
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 5: straight losses for them. They sat a ton of guys

419
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 5: as well. I guess DeRozan played, but like no Westbrooks,

420
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 5: the bonus has been in and out. Keegan Murray hurt,

421
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 5: Maligue Monk did not play. That looked literally like my

422
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 5: high school scrimmages. I went to a high school that

423
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 5: had purple and white uniforms and they would call it

424
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 5: it would be purple and white night when we'd have

425
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 5: our like preseason Screa I mentioned, come out and see

426
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 5: Andy Enoch throw down an alleybe off the glass, and

427
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 5: he plays for the Pacers. He was traded at the

428
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 5: dead line. Now he's on the Jazz. I did love

429
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 5: when Kevin Love threw an outlet to Bryce Sensiba hit

430
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 5: Bryce Sensible on the shoulder. He still turns around, catches,

431
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 5: the ball goes behind his back. Number twenty four on

432
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 5: the Kings fell over basically Stevens sure and Bryce sends

433
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 5: the ball, stuck out his tongue and was laughing as

434
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 5: he shot the layup.

435
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: This was in the second quarter. Yeah, ugly. One tough

436
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: game for our big red dog. Nick Clifford too, one

437
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: for fifteen in a game against the Utah Jazz. He's

438
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: had a tough season. Yeah, yeah, that's a rough one

439
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 1: hit some free throws, had some points, at least six points,

440
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: but one for fifteen. Weird to see that. He dusted

441
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: off Doug.

442
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 5: Huh, Like, I can't believe I'm seeing Doug mcdermoty playing basketball.

443
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he played well. He might have been the

444
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 1: best kidding last night. Year. I've seen him a lot,

445
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: but recently Doug McDermott. Yeah, mucky, you lucky guy, Doug. Yeah.

446
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: So the Jazz eighteen and thirty seven here now and Kings,

447
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: like you said, fourteen straight losses, twelve and forty four,

448
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: I think they're three and twenty five.

449
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, on the road.

450
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: Three wins on the road for Sacramento all season long.

451
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: They're gonna have pretty good chances here. They're gonna have

452
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: a nice fourteen percent chance at the number one pick.

453
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: I do believe they will. But it has not gone

454
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: well for the worst team right in the league in

455
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 1: recent years in the draft thats gone quite badly.

456
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 5: Actually, I think they hadn't gotten the number one pick

457
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 5: since they switched the lottery.

458
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: That's right, yeah, okay, so you gotta start winning some games. Second,

459
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: you guys never winning some games? Good luck, all right, Trey.

460
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: Your silver metal goes to who Big Vouch gets the

461
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: silver medal.

462
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 5: Nikola Vucevic's first game against the Balls since the trade,

463
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,640
Speaker 5: and he completely dominated. Nineteen points, eleven rebounds, three assists,

464
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 5: a steal, and two blocks a plus twenty six in

465
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 5: twenty six minutes for Big Vouch. I would say, maybe

466
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 5: not the greatest defensive game I've ever seen from Nick Richards.

467
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 5: That was either losing Vouch for a wide open three

468
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 5: from the corner top of the key and a pick

469
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 5: and roll, or just seeing Vooch shoot a hook shot

470
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 5: over the top of his head. Sticks straight losses for

471
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 5: the Bulls as they see how far they can get

472
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 5: down the standings in the lottery odds, it's going to

473
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 5: be tough to get lower than tenth. I guess maybe

474
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 5: the Bucks winning last night definitely helps them. I think

475
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 5: that Milwaukee will at least be a little more competitive

476
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 5: than Chicago during the stretch run here. But yeah, Vooch dominated.

477
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 5: I got a text from my step brother saying, ha

478
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 5: haa revenge game in your face, And absolutely it was.

479
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,680
Speaker 5: Other Celtics were good too. Jalen Brown had twenty four.

480
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 5: Peyton Pritchard has been on fire since going to the bench,

481
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 5: had twenty six, made three threes, had eight assists. Last night,

482
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 5: the Bulls were just completely outclassed and the Celtics. Vooch

483
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 5: has looked good for him, especially in these games against

484
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,120
Speaker 5: teams that don't really stand a chance talent wise.

485
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 4: Against Boston, yep, yeah anything, dad, I was just unfortunate

486
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 4: that Anthony Simon's in kick his old team's ass.

487
00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 2: You just had a quiet one in this one.

488
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: His old team played how many games we.

489
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 2: Just got traded? Yeah too.

490
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 1: I guess all right, Hey, Leonard Miller didn't miss a shot.

491
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 1: That's right, I'm noticing play him, don't play him if

492
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: you want to keep losing. Yeah he was, Yeah, exactly.

493
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 1: He was a positive off the bench, but he scored

494
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: five points, five points, three boards and limited time. Come

495
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: on free, Leonard Miller. I need a big box score game.

496
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,879
Speaker 1: Hey Dillingham, sixteen and sec There we go, There we go,

497
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 1: Sir Robert Dillinghan himself. Okay, so nice Vucci Baby revenge game,

498
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: like you said, gets a silver medal from Trey. We'll

499
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 1: keep it going.

500
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 3: Uh.

501
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: I'll give the silver medal to the Calves. Beating the

502
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,680
Speaker 1: Wizards last night. A couple of reasons why James Harden's

503
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 1: home debut in Cleveland. Hilarious giveaway with the stick beards.

504
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: Very good everybody with the hard and beard. I thought

505
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 1: that was funny. He did not have a big monster

506
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: game in terms of scoring a lot of dimes, though

507
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: he had a thirteen point eleven assist game in twenty

508
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: eight minutes. But I want to talk about two guys

509
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: that were, you know, being helped out by probably Harden's addition.

510
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: One Donovan Mitchell has been a huge beneficiary of this

511
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: hard and trade. The playmaking burden is just not on

512
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: him anymore. He can just get back to score and baby,

513
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: and that is what that guy can do. Best. Third

514
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: game in a row he's reached the thirty point plateau here. No,

515
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 1: I know that's right around his average anyway, but he

516
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: really doesn't have to do that part of the heavy

517
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: lifting with the offense in terms of playmaking, starting it

518
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 1: and all that. That's huge. The other one that benefited

519
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: last night Sam Merrill, who had an unbelievable first half

520
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: twenty six points. In the first half, he made all

521
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: nine of his shots from the field, including seven to

522
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 1: three pointers. He finished eleven or twelve from the floor,

523
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: nine to ten from deep. But six of Harden's assists

524
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: were excuse me, six of Merrill's eleven baskets were hardened assists.

525
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: Some of those were just simply like two guys on

526
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: the ball, Hey, Sam, you're open, just kick it to you,

527
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: knock down the three, but a couple others were hardened

528
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: in the post or at the elbow, sort of backing

529
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: up a little bit, and the Cavs running some action

530
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: for Sam Meryll coming around to Jared Allen screen for

531
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: one of them, slipping back door for another one. Something

532
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 1: to watch, I think, not just like handing it over

533
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: to a guy hitting a three. They were running stuff

534
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: off ball while all eyes get on Harden here or Mitchell.

535
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: You gotta keep note of and that's going to unlock

536
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 1: these other guys. So good stuff. Dominant went over the Wizards,

537
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: he was on fire. Mitchell thirty plus and then Harden

538
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: just setting everybody up with everybody in beards.

539
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah.

540
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 5: I have been laughing on Twitter as the Cavs try

541
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 5: to figure out the right photo to put of James

542
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 5: Harden and their starting lineup because they don't have a

543
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 5: lot of them left over, and like the ones for

544
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 5: their other four starters were taking it like pre season

545
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 5: media day, right, so they're posed, they're fitting in with

546
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 5: the aesthetic that the Calves like, and then Hardens are

547
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 5: just like very basic headshots. Yeah, they just looked very funny.

548
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 5: But the vibes are quite high in Cleveland right now.

549
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 5: They are having a great time. Harden looks incredible. The

550
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 5: guy's one of the greatest passers in NBA history, and

551
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 5: it gets kind of lost in his scoring.

552
00:25:59,480 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: For sure.

553
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 5: That dime he had to Jalen Tyson behind the back

554
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 5: through it like twenty feet ye for the dunk. That

555
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 5: was pretty sweet. I like the interview that Donovan Mitchell

556
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 5: gave after the game. He said that they saw the

557
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 5: broadcast notes for the game, said get Sam going, and

558
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 5: Sam Merrill's like, if I've been playing bad, he feel it.

559
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 1: A little sad about it. So I had an awesome game.

560
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: He was blocking shots as well.

561
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 5: And then Mitchell even said he's gonna wear Sam Merrill's

562
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 5: jersey for the three point contest again. So that's pretty

563
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 5: sweet from them. They seem to be feeling it right now.

564
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 5: Another guy that's been helped out since Harden's arrival Jared Allen.

565
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 5: He's twenty nine of thirty six since Harden showed up

566
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 5: in Cleveland, didn't miss a shot last night, eight for eight.

567
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 5: The question will be what happens when Evan Mobley comes back,

568
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 5: because right now four shooters and Jared Allen roll into

569
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 5: the hoop, it's working nicely. Yeah, what's it going to

570
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 5: be when it's three shooters and two big guys.

571
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, say, two of these wins I think we need

572
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: to point out against the Kings, against the Wizards, Now,

573
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: there was that really firm, solid quality win against the

574
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: Nuggets that that did happen. That was that two point

575
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: game and hard it was great. But yeah, two of

576
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: these other ones are against the two of the worst

577
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: teams in the league. But still I think the biggest

578
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: thing or the biggest concern is when you add like

579
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: a high usage player like Harden to another high usage

580
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 1: player like Mitchell, it's like, ooh, do they take away

581
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: from each other? That sometimes takes some growing pains. Not

582
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: a concern like right away. Again, maybe it's because of

583
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: the competition or whatever, but like it's not a problem

584
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: right now with Harden and Mitchell. It's like working flawlessly here.

585
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's the way they're sort of set up.

586
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 4: When Darius Garland was out there, he was taking a

587
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 4: lot off of Dune Mitchell's shoulders.

588
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 2: So there's that part that works.

589
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: They're used to it.

590
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 4: Saying the evange question is a real question. Yeah, and

591
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 4: that may be a problem all the Sammarrol's bowin he's

592
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 4: now is starting every single game there in that third

593
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 4: spot to be that shooter, and they love him. The

594
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 4: celebrations on the bench when he was splashing, splash and

595
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 4: splashing in that first half.

596
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: I like that sam Merril gets the silver medal here

597
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 1: because sam Merril just sounds like an American downhill skier

598
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: to me, yes, or maybe the lose role, I know,

599
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: like that sounds like an Olympic athlete Sam Merrill gets

600
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: the silver for the Americans. Last night. I caught it

601
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: on the gold zone, So congratulations to them. All Right,

602
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: one more round here the bronze medal games. Lots to

603
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: pick from, still tasks. Where do you want to go?

604
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 2: Well, the Milwaukee Bucks. They get a win.

605
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 4: They got thirty four points from a guy they just

606
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,320
Speaker 4: picked up off the scrap heap in cam thomas bucket.

607
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 4: They needed him, They needed him. They got no Giannis,

608
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 4: no Ryan Rahns, who I didn't really recognize. He was

609
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 4: on the bench with glasses and I was like, who

610
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 4: is that guy? Oh, yeah, that's right rounds. But they

611
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 4: needed offense because those guys were out and cam Thomas

612
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 4: was scorching. Third quarter, he lights it up fifteen points

613
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,239
Speaker 4: in just five minutes off the bench. They need him,

614
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 4: but I thought Orlando was still going to win this game.

615
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 4: TI game, minute forty eight left, Palla Bonco has a

616
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 4: dunk opportunity. He clanked it, he missed and it bounced

617
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 4: way out and Kuzma takes it and runs with it.

618
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 4: Fast break, tough, tough finish to score there. Their next possession,

619
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 4: cam Thomas did a cam Thomas thing. He dribbled for

620
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 4: twenty seconds. He dribbled, He dribbled. Oh yeah, you take it, sucker.

621
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 4: He passed it over to Kevin Porter Junior, who did

622
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 4: a great job getting to the line free throws for him.

623
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 4: Then Miles Turner hit a deep three. Never see Miles

624
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 4: Turner hits such a deep three. I mean, this is

625
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 4: a bronze medal finish here, but it does not feel

626
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 4: like the Milwaukee Bucks at all.

627
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,719
Speaker 2: Next possession, Cam Thomas said, oh yeah, Miles, I can

628
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: do deeper than that.

629
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 4: It took like four more feet back and hit a

630
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 4: big three with twenty seconds left. So they ended the

631
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 4: game on a ten to two run. Cam Thomas thirty

632
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 4: four points. Everything working on this night for the Milwaukee Bucks.

633
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 4: With Yannis on the bench, I suppose he's coming back

634
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 4: after the All Star Game for this team. That is

635
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 4: now you know, nineth in reverse standings there, moving down up,

636
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 4: however you look at it. They were eight once, but

637
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 4: now having won three of four games, feeling good. They

638
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 4: are feeling absolutely good. Ousman Jang had seventeen points.

639
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 5: Jericho Since had seventeen points. Yeah, five for five at

640
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 5: the pre throw line.

641
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 2: Huh.

642
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 5: They put up a graphic that had thirty four for Cam,

643
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 5: seventeen for Jang, and seventeen for Sims. Lisa Byington, their

644
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 5: playby play broadcaster, said, you would not have believed me

645
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 5: if I said these three were leading the Bucks to

646
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 5: a win over the Magic in February, and Wes Matthews said, yeah,

647
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 5: for a lot of reasons.

648
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 2: Wes Matthew's doing a great job.

649
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like you. Actually, yeah, it's pretty good.

650
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 2: He saw Mo Wagner grabbing with I guess it was

651
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 2: Jericho Sims. I don't know.

652
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 4: He was doing something with a Milwaukee Bucks player, and

653
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 4: he goes, that is a professional antagonizer. Lisa Byington said,

654
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 4: that's good. That's a good one.

655
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 2: That's good, and he said, I'm politically correct. He knows

656
00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 2: what he's doing. He didn't want it. He didn't say

657
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 2: that guy's an asshole. That's Mo Wogner out there, right.

658
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: So the Bucks gotta win here, Like you said, that's

659
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 1: quality New Orlando Magic. They have to be considered one

660
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: of the most disappointing teams this season. Definitely.

661
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah in Orlando too. Yeah, and you know, they

662
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 2: just beat the Bucks. I get that.

663
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: So it was like a sort of a home and

664
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: home or whatever. But Pawlo I think went over seven

665
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. I'm pretty sure I believe it.

666
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was trying to make that dunk attempt a dagger.

667
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 2: He was frustrated. Yeah, I'm doing this literally.

668
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 4: You could have scored and the game would have been

669
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 4: totally different if you put two points up.

670
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 5: I think they I was looking at their splits this morning.

671
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 5: I think they were ten and four in November, and

672
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 5: since December one started, I think they're under five hundred,

673
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 5: and it feels like it.

674
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 2: I mean a lot of it.

675
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 5: They did have a lot of injuries, but they just

676
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 5: don't have any cohesion. And every single guy that gets

677
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 5: the ball for an important shot, I'm like, that's not

678
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 5: going in. Every time there's a kickout, I'm like one

679
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 5: Delcardo Junior wide open from the corner, hit the far

680
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 5: side of the room.

681
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,479
Speaker 1: Right, You're gonna live with those shot attempts if you're

682
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: the other team, for sure. All right, Trey, what's your

683
00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: bronze metal performance? Nicks?

684
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 5: They smoked the seventy six ers no embiid for Philadelphia,

685
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 5: and the Knicks gave a much better effort on both

686
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 5: sides of the ball. I thought Karl Anthony Towns had

687
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 5: a great game after we were kind of calling him

688
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 5: out in the loss against the Pacers. But twenty one

689
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 5: eleven rebounds, five assists in twenty six minutes for Cat

690
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 5: Mitchell Robinson was back eleven points, six boards, four blocks

691
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 5: in fifteen minutes for Big Mitch. They played inside out.

692
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 5: I thought the Knicks did twenty and forty four on

693
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 5: three pointers, forty one assists on their forty eight makes.

694
00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: They were just totally locked in.

695
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 5: They trailed two zero, and then they won the next

696
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 5: forty seven and a half minutes by fifty one points,

697
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 5: a lot of those coming from Jose Alvarado, who went

698
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 5: for twenty six, tied a career high with eight three pointers.

699
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,719
Speaker 1: And this guy was just doing the most out there.

700
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: Three rebounds, four assists, five steals.

701
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 5: He had a play where he went baseline, went for

702
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 5: a reverse layup hit the bottom of the rim, goes

703
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 5: to whoever on the sixers, and Alvarado tips the ball

704
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 5: out from behind, gets back.

705
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: To him for a corner three pointer.

706
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 5: Splash, had it spin the Mobile Arena sounding like Madison

707
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 5: Square Garden.

708
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: This could have been his home debut.

709
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 5: His home debut was a little bit underwhelming, like we

710
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:11,479
Speaker 5: talked about yesterday, but Knicks fans obviously infiltrated the Sixers

711
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 5: stadium and it sounded like a party in there.

712
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.

713
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, A little bit worrisome that Joel and Bid didn't play.

714
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 4: I was surprised by that. This isn't a back to

715
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 4: back situation. There's no reason to sit him. Is it

716
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 4: time to worry about the knee a little bit because

717
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 4: the injury report was knee management, which okay, fine, But

718
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,880
Speaker 4: if you're sitting in a situation where you literally have

719
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 4: a week off and it wasn't a back to back,

720
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 4: you haven't played. He didn't play in the previous game,

721
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 4: which again wasn't a back to back.

722
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: Odd.

723
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we thought he was playing. Yeah when we made

724
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: that or pick up game, or at least part of

725
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: the reason I thought the Sixers might win. But yeah,

726
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: Nick's dominated, And you're right, Jose Alvarado, Man, they're chanting

727
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: for this guy in the the opposition's barn here. Wait

728
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: wait till he has one of these games in Madison

729
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: Square Garden. Yeah, the big bung boys are gonna go berserve.

730
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 1: Oh they're going to being hard. Let mean, like he

731
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: brings the energy. He's like a perfect addition form, especially

732
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: with the opportunity with the injury to Douce McBride, so

733
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: he's going to get opportunities to have games like this.

734
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: But the eight threes, that's nice. Yeah, holy crap, that

735
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: was great.

736
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 5: But I mean I thought he was kinda The best

737
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 5: thing he did for them was they were just flying

738
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 5: up and down before when he was out there.

739
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, good for them. The Knicks fans, they know how

740
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 4: to travel to Philadelphia, not for sure, not far. How

741
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 4: do you guys like that higher angle camera?

742
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 2: Just the main camera, but it's just just like, I

743
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 2: don't know, it is higher, it is higher, it is higher.

744
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: It seems like you don't like it.

745
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

746
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 4: I tried to get used to it. Is it just

747
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 4: me being stubborn. I just want the camera and the

748
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,479
Speaker 4: check the same angle. But it's just a little bit further.

749
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 4: It's not as nice. Doesn't feel like you're any upper

750
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 4: bowl or anything. But the angle just isn't as nice.

751
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: That's all that's with you. It could be a nicer angle,

752
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: all right. One more metal to hand out here. I

753
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: got lots to pick from. I thought about giving it

754
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: to the Pistons, beating the Raptors for a couple of reasons.

755
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: Pearl did come back for Toronto. There was that, but

756
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 1: the Pistons took care of business, really dominant victory. And

757
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 1: I just wanted to highlight one of my guys in

758
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 1: the expansion draft, a guy I probably reached for a

759
00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: little too early, and Paul Reid. I said, I think

760
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: he's a starting center in this league if he gets

761
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 1: drafted to an expansion team. He was awesome right away.

762
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: He had a monster first quarter versus the rap So

763
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: a good B ball Paul game there. I'm not taking that.

764
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 1: One could take Julius Randall. Monster game against the Blazer.

765
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: I think he had forty one points. Julius Randall, always overlooked,

766
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 1: always overlooked, but great game. Instead, I'm gonna give the

767
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: bronze medal to Fox and Wemby leading the Spurs past

768
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: the Warriors one twenty six one thirteen. Spurs used a

769
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: big run to end the third quarter, then they went

770
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: nuts in the fourth and took care of business in

771
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: that final frame for their six straight wins. So they

772
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 1: go into the All Star Break on a nice win streak.

773
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,440
Speaker 1: They're the second best team in the Western Conference. Reminder,

774
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: this team did not make the postseason for like six

775
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: years running here, so what a jump up. They're on

776
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 1: pace to win like fifty seven fifty eight games, so

777
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: that'd be a hell of an increase over wold They

778
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: win last year thirty four in the thirty somewhere on

779
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: that so thirty four it is, yeah, all right, So

780
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: they're look kind of a plus twenty to twenty five

781
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,319
Speaker 1: win increase I expect. But I saw Pounding the Rock

782
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 1: put this win eloquently. I thought the Spurs didn't just win,

783
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:22,800
Speaker 1: they imposed themselves. Loved that because Fox ignited the comeback.

784
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,240
Speaker 1: He had twenty seven points, eight assists, controlled the tempo

785
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: in that third quarter, really good stuff from him. He

786
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: hit that big deep jumper at the end of the

787
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: third quarter at the buzzer there to take him into

788
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 1: the fourth. And then when ben Yama took over, he

789
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: altered shots at the rim. You got one of them

790
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,479
Speaker 1: as a block, but altered the other one, sprinted the floor,

791
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 1: threw down the alley loop I don't know. A minute

792
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 1: or so later, hits a three just like got them

793
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 1: going and they sort of blew this game open, Like

794
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 1: I said, so it was it was Fox starting it

795
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,359
Speaker 1: off after they were down big and Wenby I thought

796
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,919
Speaker 1: closing it there, and contributions from other guys as well.

797
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: But Spurs, man, they're just clearly much better than a

798
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 1: Curry lists Warriors team Draymond. Draymond tried, he played okay,

799
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: and he plays Wemby as well as you can. But

800
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: I like that Wenby every time he's playing him now,

801
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,919
Speaker 1: he's like learning and he's like played him a couple

802
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: of times. I think he's like unlocking some things against

803
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: Draymond and the Warriors. So he's just a smart guy

804
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: in addition to being a physical freak.

805
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 5: Phil Jackson said, you're a title contender if you get

806
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,839
Speaker 5: to forty wins before you have twenty losses. Spurs are

807
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 5: thirty eight and sixteen. They got a really good chance, Yeah,

808
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 5: to be there. You're also considered a title contender if

809
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,879
Speaker 5: you're a top ten on both sides of the ball.

810
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 5: Spurs are eighth in offense and third in defense. Does

811
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 5: it add up to the Spurs or a title contender?

812
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:37,399
Speaker 5: They've never played a playoff series.

813
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know that's a thing.

814
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 1: That's a thing. It's like there's like similarities to the Pistons,

815
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: in the East, like having this dominant regular season. Now

816
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: I know they made it last year and put up

817
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 1: a good fight against the Knicks, so at least they

818
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: have some experience led with by Cape Cunham. But same idea.

819
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: It's like these are elite teams with great records on

820
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: both sides of the floor, really good, but it's usually

821
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,360
Speaker 1: you got to like take your lumps a couple of

822
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: postseason matchups before you can go all the way through

823
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: to a conference finals or finals or a championship contender.

824
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: But the more you watch all these two teams, like,

825
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 1: I mean, they're damn good, Like they're they're one of

826
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 1: the best teams in the league of course, So yeah,

827
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: I guess the playoffs are just a different beast.

828
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, they you need some sort of experience in my

829
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 4: head that you need to at least have played, like

830
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 4: the Pistons, because they have played, are far more likely

831
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,399
Speaker 4: to get to the NBA Finals than San Antonio's first team.

832
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,879
Speaker 1: That one team has Wemby, one team has one, one

833
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: team has Wenby. I love Cade, but man Wemby's.

834
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 4: But all the Vets on the other side when they

835
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 4: line up in the playoffs are gonna say they haven't

836
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 4: even been here.

837
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: We can get them. We can do this.

838
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: A couple of things. A person. The second unit is

839
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 1: humming right now once Harrison Barnes has gone to that

840
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 1: second unit. I like that that's working and their confidence

841
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: is growing. And the chemistry between Fox and Wemby, I

842
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: mean we talk a lot about Castle and Wemby and

843
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: like how special it is, and like Wenby just like

844
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: throw it up, man, just chuck it anywhere. It's growing

845
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: between those two as well. Fox who is the better

846
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: player of course at this point in their careers, between

847
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 1: Castle or Dylan Harper or something like that. He's awesome.

848
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: Still he probably he's in the All Star conversation. Should be.

849
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 1: They're getting better, those two as the more they play

850
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 1: here and the more reps they have to because they

851
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: didn't play much last year. So Spurs gets the bronze medal.

852
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: We did it, We did it. Awards handed out man.

853
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: That was a lot of games last night, not a

854
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,479
Speaker 1: lot of super no close. These two nights are weird.

855
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 1: Yeah last night and tonight, but yeah, schedule like rosters

856
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: that you're getting in addition to all the tanking teams,

857
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: but people like every year, these these are weird games,

858
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: always sitting guys down, giving them longer rests. Whatever, Let's

859

Speaker 2: Well we heard that these names were coming.

901
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 4: I'm here, I don't know fourteen days ago or three

902
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 4: weeks it's what it was a couple of weeks ago,

903
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 4: so he knew these names were coming. But I always

904
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 4: love going NBA dot com getting the full report. I

905
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 4: want a real report about these coaches, players, and that's

906
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 4: where I'm going. I'm going to NBA dot com. So

907
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 4: I enjoyed reading it. I enjoyed copy pasting. I enjoyed

908
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 4: debating myself. Hmmm, as Doc Rivers going in, of course,

909
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 4: of course, Doc, it's not a debate, right, sure, he's

910
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 4: he's beloved. Yeah, then I start debating, of course, yeah, yeah, yeah,

911
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,799
Speaker 4: you said. The w NBA players obviously the headliners. They're

912
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 4: the headliners. The Blake Ama always fun, always fun. We'll

913
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 4: Blake get in.

914
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 1: We made a short about that once upon a time,

915
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,239
Speaker 1: a fair quest similar to their careers are.

916
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 4: Multipolates, multiple shorts about those guys, and Blake Blake just

917
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 4: on his own.

918
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 2: I think that the social media impact is important to

919
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 2: me my being a.

920
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:45,120
Speaker 4: Loser, because because I watched basketball hand in hand with

921
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 4: my secondary screen of Twitter, and when it was growing

922
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 4: and Blake was just highlighting, Blake was Blake was Twitter

923
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 4: for a while. So that's that's that's why it impacts

924
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 4: me more than a Mario Stotdemyer. But those two dudes

925
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 4: are so similar, and it comes down to it.

926
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,440
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if they get in,

927
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 2: and I'll honestee it, it might be a multiple.

928
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

929
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 1: This is a Mari's second time, or at least second

930
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: time on the ballot here, probably more. Yeah, I mean

931
00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 1: he retired a lot earlier than Blake did.

932
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is Blake Blake's first on the ballot.

933
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think? TK? Is this newsworthy?

934
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,439
Speaker 5: Now let's see here Miami twenty sixteen was the last

935
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:22,520
Speaker 5: time Statamier played.

936
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: They have identical cases. It's pretty crazy.

937
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 5: Actually, both five times all NBA, six time All Stars,

938
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:28,239
Speaker 5: and Rookies of the Year.

939
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's their accolades.

940
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 5: For whatever reason, Amari has a seventy three percent chance

941
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 5: on Basketball Reference and Blake has a fifty five percent chance.

942
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 5: So I don't get it. I don't understand how that happened,

943
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 5: But I think they're both going to get in. Look

944
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,720
Speaker 5: at the other candidates. Good timing.

945
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I agree.

946
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 1: You think they'll get in here together? Yeah, which would

947
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,800
Speaker 1: be fitting? Yeah? Sure, yeah, I uh sorry.

948
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 2: Go ahead, No, No, I was just wondering if Mario

949
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 2: was just.

950
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 4: If he had fewer games and his games are deemed

951
00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 4: more in packed full, like they got the same accomplishment,

952
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 4: same accolades.

953
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 2: I played eight sixty five.

954
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: Man, it's close. We've done it. Like their averages are

955
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 1: almost identical. It's crazy, Like I'm with you, guys. If

956
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: one of them goes in the other one has to

957
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: go in. It has to be the rule. I'm not

958
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 1: saying it has to be at the exact same time,

959
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: but like that, they're they're exact same. Like one goes in,

960
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: the other goes in. That's how where I'm at with it.

961
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: Whether it's this class or not, we'll see. I think

962
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: you're right, TK. I think they're helped out here by

963
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 1: a lack of big NBA names. They probably want to

964
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: sort of put a player or two in. I think

965
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 1: they have a better case over your Kevin Johnson's or

966
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 1: your Buck Williams or Mark cause Johnson. So yeah, we'll see.

967
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 1: But otherwise it's the w NBA people. I don't think

968
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: this is newsworthy though, because I'm with you, task, I

969
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,479
Speaker 1: swear I've asked this like seven times at this point.

970
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: I've asked this headline. I've said this headline seven times

971
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 1: over the last couple of months. It's weird how they

972
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 1: roll these out because you get like the big lists

973
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,760
Speaker 1: and then the rumored lists, and then the short lists

974
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,360
Speaker 1: and then who's in, and we just keep sort of

975
00:44:58,440 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 1: doing it.

976
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, they got to work on that.

977
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:07,919
Speaker 1: Next headline from the Athletic Spurs wave Jeremy Sohan after

978
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: failing to make a trade at the deadline, Trey Kurbi,

979
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: I'll start with you.

980
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:12,839
Speaker 2: Is this news?

981
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 5: Uh sure, pretty rare when a top ten pick has

982
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 5: waved before their rookie contract is over, So that's newsworthy.

983
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,760
Speaker 5: But I mean we also literally haven't talked about Sohanna

984
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 5: as a player this season since he came back from injury.

985
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 5: He's fine on defense, not much on offense, and he's

986
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 5: gonna somehow end up on the Bulls.

987
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 1: Well, apparently there were discussed deadline deals for him and

988
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,439
Speaker 1: the Knicks and the Bulls and the Sons, among others.

989
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, the Shuggle Bulls were maybe one of those

990
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: teams contemplating a trade. Obviously nothing material a lot of

991
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 1: big guys. Yeah, they probably technically is yeah, I mean,

992
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: you got Leonard Miller should be playing him forty minutes.

993
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: But whatever, Okay, yeah, we know TK stots you you

994
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,840
Speaker 1: were early to this and you look so far have

995
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: proven to be right. He's not been incredible. He had

996
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: like he started felt like his career. Okay, he had

997
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:04,240
Speaker 1: he had a I don't know, there was a blip

998
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,800
Speaker 1: where it was like, oh this maybe is a special player.

999
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,439
Speaker 1: Hasn't really gone well since. But what do you think, Tess?

1000
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was the run where Popovich was playing at

1001
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 4: point guard that ain't gonna go well. So I don't

1002
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 4: know if that threw him off, but really that's an

1003
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,800
Speaker 4: excuse because he just hasn't been able to score it.

1004
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 4: I can see the Bulls getting him, but they already

1005
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 4: have Isaac Acorro.

1006
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 5: I mean it's you know, you know it's not gonna

1007
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 5: be long to I can run out a full five

1008
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 5: of guys that I don't like watching it all.

1009
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: That's the funny part here.

1010
00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 5: What would be any akro Sex? Then so hand and

1011
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:39,560
Speaker 5: who else are we gonna throw in the mix? I

1012
00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 5: don't know.

1013
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll find somebody.

1014
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:47,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's had some games, yeah, but he just hasn't

1015
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 4: been able to show it. As you said, it's this

1016
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,760
Speaker 4: rookie contract. It's now three and a half seasons.

1017
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: Jared Weiss said the Spurs now entered the bio market

1018
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 1: to try and probably get more shooting support. That's why

1019
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,920
Speaker 1: you let go a guy like this. A couple guys

1020
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: rumored to me.

1021
00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:04,720
Speaker 2: They were trying to trade them. They're trying, they're trying.

1022
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 1: To trade them. I mean, obviously they had to deal

1023
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 1: with them, like, look, we're gonna try and trade you.

1024
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,359
Speaker 1: If we can't, then we'll wave you well and then

1025
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 1: you can figure it out. But the Spurs could be

1026
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 1: looking at George Niang, the minivan himself, potentially Eric Gordon.

1027
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 1: Uh these are like vet guys that have a decent

1028
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 1: track record of being able to hit the three ball

1029
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 1: and stretching the floor a little bit. So maybe, uh

1030
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 1: those two guys. One of those two guys will join

1031
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 1: the Spurs. They were just waved by the Grizzlies. I

1032
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 1: think both of them were. Did they both end up

1033
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,200
Speaker 1: on the Grizzlies. I think they were part of that. Yeah, yeah, trade.

1034
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,839
Speaker 1: I think that Jared Jackson's trade.

1035
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Niang would be the way to go.

1036
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 4: Notice respect to Eric, but Eric Hordin's old in comparison

1037
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 4: to the knee, I.

1038
00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:46,359
Speaker 5: Mean Niang hasn't played this season. Eric Gordon somehow has

1039
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:48,880
Speaker 5: more minutes than George ni President.

1040
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,960
Speaker 1: Actually, yeah, I'm shocking, all right. Next headline here, had

1041
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 1: to get this one in. I'll go from the publication

1042
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 1: s F Gate, who had a good headline of it,

1043
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 1: but the story is from p and Anthony Slater. The

1044
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,720
Speaker 1: headline reads, someone close to Kaminga apparently kept mooching food

1045
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: from Warriors Trey. Is this news?

1046
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 5: Uh, not news until we know what the food is

1047
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 5: and exactly how much a family member took.

1048
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, this ESPN story is pretty interesting. It's like

1049
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: this is the main.

1050
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,960
Speaker 5: Pole thing from it, just showing the big disconnect between

1051
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,960
Speaker 5: like basically three parties Kaminga in his camp, Steve Kerr

1052
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:34,320
Speaker 5: and the coaching staff and the front office slash ownership

1053
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 5: led by Joe Laca, who has a lot of belief

1054
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 5: in Jonathan Kaminga, Kaminga his agent, a Rock Turner, a

1055
00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,040
Speaker 5: lot of belief in themselves as well, and Steve Kerr

1056
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 5: said basically, we never thought he bought in to the

1057
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,919
Speaker 5: team and the way that they wanted to play. Kerr

1058
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 5: wanted him to be Sean Marion. Kaminga wanted to be

1059
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 5: Jeremy Grant. I guess Jean Marion eventually left the Suns

1060
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 5: because he did get to be the number one guy,

1061
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 5: and he went floundered for a little bit and then

1062
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 5: eventually remade himself into a Hall of Fame edge case

1063
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 5: playing like Sean Marion that we all know and love.

1064
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 1: So this is not a new style of.

1065
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 5: Disagreement between players and coaching staffs, but kaminga it just

1066
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 5: feels like was slided with every single thing curse as

1067
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 5: when you read through this ESPN thing, it's like when

1068
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 5: they finally come to him fIF minutes like, oh, now

1069
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 5: you need me, And you can't really blame him for

1070
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 5: feeling that type of way. But also Steve Curtin knows

1071
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,720
Speaker 5: how to win in the NBA, so he maybe listen

1072
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 5: to what he said.

1073
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this has happened to other players. Saw Evan

1074
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,879
Speaker 4: Turner took to Twitter and say, yeah, my coach said

1075
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 4: he viewed me as Richard Jefferson. And that was the

1076
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 4: first time I truly understood Littrell Sprewell as if he

1077
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 4: was very very bad.

1078
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 1: Right, Evan Turner, like a lot of these guys think

1079
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 1: I'm Kobe Man, I'm the best I should be the best.

1080
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 1: So then you're told by a co in this league,

1081
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 1: at this level, like, no, man, take it down a

1082
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,760
Speaker 1: notch or two. You're Richard Jefferson, yes, or whatever. Aaron Gordon,

1083
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 1: I think was also a comparison to the Sean mary

1084
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: and and coming of it all.

1085
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,879
Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, and Evan Turner said, yeah, I thought

1086
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 4: I was Kobe, literally said I thought I was Kobe,

1087
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,360
Speaker 4: But I trade the career I had for Richard Jeffers

1088
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 4: Richard Jefferson, so it ain't shade. Yeah, but yes, I

1089
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 4: loved reading about the food, obviously early in the right

1090
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 4: up or early in the story, because you got to

1091
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 4: get that early for all the eyeballs above the fold.

1092
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 4: So in paragraph number three, a quick line about the

1093
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 4: family stealing stealing food, but there weren't any more details.

1094
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:42,360
Speaker 4: I definitely want more details. How much are they taking?

1095
00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 4: Like let's say there's just a ton of food on

1096
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 4: the table and they took some food, and but there's

1097
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 4: still extra food for others to eat.

1098
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 2: It's all good.

1099
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, how much of food must have been taken for

1100
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 1: this to piss register? Yeah, or to bring it up well,

1101
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 1: you know, weeks later. So I can't I can't call

1102
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:03,399
Speaker 1: it stealing food. That's why I liked mooching, because that's

1103
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: stealing gets there. It's obviously they're allowed, I guess, to take.

1104
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 4: Some somebody just just going too far maybe, but somebody's

1105
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,960
Speaker 4: got to eat the food, and that's the thing. Maybe

1106
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 4: they maybe they didn't take access. Maybe it helped out

1107
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 4: that you didn't literally have to throw food into the garbage.

1108
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: I think if somebody had noticed this and it got

1109
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: into a story, the idea is like they were piling

1110
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 1: up food to take home. I think you're supposed to

1111
00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 1: eat the food there.

1112
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, you know, maybe it's not to go.

1113
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 1: It's a buffet.

1114
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, but Devil's advocate again if you if it's not

1115
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 4: taken before everybody leaves, they just scrap it, they just

1116
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 4: throw it out it.

1117
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,840
Speaker 2: I need the detailed Yeah, yeah, yes.

1118
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: I thought this ESPN article was maybe more favorable to

1119
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 1: Kaminga in the end than it was to the Warriors

1120
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: and the joel Ay Cup and how they handled them

1121
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,359
Speaker 1: like a little bit. And I say that because you're

1122
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,399
Speaker 1: seeing a lot of the Warriors players and social media

1123
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:00,040
Speaker 1: at least, like they're joking about this food thing, and

1124
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 1: they seem to be coming to the defense of Kaminga.

1125
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 1: Like there's a lot of like laughing emojis. I know

1126
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:08,479
Speaker 1: Steph said something, was it Buddy Heeled who's no longer

1127
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 1: on the team, of course, but he said something blaming Jimmy.

1128
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, yeah, they have Cominga's back, and like

1129
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 1: it didn't it didn't work. Also in the article, it

1130
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 1: just like somebody said, I forget who like some you know,

1131
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 1: anonymous executive was like nobody won here like that. It

1132
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: was probably poorly handled every party involved Cominga's like you said,

1133
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 1: maybe Kerr and the Warriors coaching, and then definitely Joe

1134
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,959
Speaker 1: Lake maybe like having I don't know, digging his heels

1135
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 1: in because he thought he nailed it with Kaminga. Because

1136
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,880
Speaker 1: then there's the whole thing like, oh, they wanted to

1137
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:40,279
Speaker 1: take Franz Wagner instead of Kaminga. You knew that was

1138
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:42,759
Speaker 1: coming in an article like this, the hit piece, so

1139
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 1: to speak, after a guy is finally gone. But wasn't

1140
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't too bad. We just had this weird food thing.

1141
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 1: Just had this weird food thing. Yeah, very weird, all right,

1142
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 1: next headline, this is odd Jared McCain to participate in

1143
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:04,359
Speaker 1: the NBA soletard three point shooting contests test the other participants,

1144
00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, QB, Caleb Williams, let's go. NBA analyst Richard Jefferson.

1145
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 1: Evan Turner is going to be sitting there on Friday

1146
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 1: night going, man, that could have been me, Man, that

1147
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:16,160
Speaker 1: should have been me.

1148
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:19,839
Speaker 5: BM is kind of funny he didn't follow Richard Jefferson's

1149
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 5: post career path podcast podcasting.

1150
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Richard Jefferson was an early player podcaster.

1151
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:29,839
Speaker 4: Who was Yeah, but Richard has got now his own

1152
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:33,879
Speaker 4: comedy type show. You know, he's like another that's another level.

1153
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean, I'm sure having Turner's trying to

1154
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 1: get to get on. Well, here's who else is in it.

1155
00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: BMX athlete Nigel Sylvester Okay, yeah, Drewski, Jake from State Farm,

1156
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: and streamers plack Boy Max and Cam Wilder. Okay, So

1157
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,839
Speaker 1: Jared McCain is in this though. That isn't NBA guy Tess,

1158
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:56,560
Speaker 1: is this news?

1159
00:53:57,880 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 2: This is news?

1160
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 4: I suppose every social media platform equals news. And I

1161
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 4: say that because the man is very popular on TikTok

1162
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 4: and if he can do some things while he's out there,

1163
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,239
Speaker 4: I can record himself anyway if he posts anything on

1164
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:15,479
Speaker 4: TikTok because of this. This is good for the NBA

1165
00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 4: and publicity, so that's why they're doing it. As we've

1166
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 4: seen with you know, the what's the other one called

1167
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 4: the Creator's Cup that we see at the NBA Cup.

1168
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's happening. I think the NBA like invited

1169
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 1: two hundred content creators still the start weekend. I saw

1170
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,040
Speaker 1: that headline, so part of this, Oh oh well, that's

1171
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,920
Speaker 1: a lot of creators. And before people get too excited,

1172
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 1: this too, from what I could tell, is not happening

1173
00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 1: on Saturday night. This is not All Star Saturday Night. Okay,

1174
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: this is Friday. It'll happen at the NBA Crossover Event,

1175
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:49,000
Speaker 1: which is basically the NBA Jam, right, NBA Jam Sessions. Yeah,

1176
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: we used to call back the day.

1177
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:50,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1178
00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 1: I think it's happening seven pm Pacific time at the

1179
00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,320
Speaker 1: Crossover Event. So it's like it's airing I believe on

1180
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 1: the NBA and on YouTube and on Facebook. You're not

1181
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 1: going to get this televised, is what my point is here.

1182
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: This will not be a part of the Rising Stars

1183
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:12,080
Speaker 1: slash Celebrity game crap. No, you can catch the recap

1184
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,719
Speaker 1: on House of Highlights. I'm sure, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1185
00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,040
Speaker 1: news or through the McCain's in this, I guess. So

1186
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:20,040
Speaker 1: I got sure.

1187
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,719
Speaker 5: He had eight points in seventy five seconds last night. Yeah,

1188
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:25,800
Speaker 5: he played really well in an NBA game, So I

1189
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,080
Speaker 5: think it'll mostly be news if he doesn't win this one.

1190
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 1: I know, I was thinking that he obviously does not care, right, no,

1191
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,040
Speaker 1: because like only yeah, like what does he gain from this,

1192
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,919
Speaker 1: because he could only lose, Like, I don't think he will,

1193
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 1: but he could. I guess bet. Draymond Green almost lost

1194
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,920
Speaker 1: to Kevin Hart once in a three point Now, Draymond

1195
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 1: Green is not as good as three points as Jerem McCain.

1196
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,879
Speaker 4: But to get I mean some collab work with other

1197
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 4: social media creators, and I guess, yeah.

1198
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:57,840
Speaker 2: Drusky, he's huge, Yeah, huge, State Farm Jake, can you shoot?

1199
00:55:57,880 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 2: I guess.

1200
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,840
Speaker 5: So, I don't know he's jacked, Yeah, I mean, is

1201
00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:06,000
Speaker 5: he like a Desmond Bane gotta get chet. That guy's

1202
00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 5: just become Jake from State Farm. He has a real name,

1203
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 5: what is his name? It's just from State Farm.

1204
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,080
Speaker 1: And I'm not familiar with the three point shot from

1205
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: black Boy Max and Cam Wilder, so I can't speak

1206
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:24,320
Speaker 1: to them or Nigel Sylvester, the BMX athlete. I'll be

1207
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:28,440
Speaker 1: cheering for him though, Crew Jones style. Yeah, yeah, of course.

1208
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 4: I got some news here. That real news is that

1210
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,480

Speaker 1: tanking or trying to take at least uh, you know,

1221
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,520
Speaker 1: buzz from everybody. They're like, oh God, this guy is

1224
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 1: unfortunatelyfully gets it cleaned up. At least I got a

1225
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 1: little look at him. You have to see him play

1226
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 1: a few minutes seventy five minutes something like that.

1227
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, not bad.

1228
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 1: Are you excited for your guy? Killer Williams? And yeah,

1229
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: I want you. He's got Yeah, he's an athlete.

1230
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 5: Absolutely, he's an inaccurate short passer in football. Oh, but

1231
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 5: you know he won't be chased by defensive lineman.

1232
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: Oh. Does the celebrity three point contest have the deep

1233
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: deep starry balls? Interesting? Because he would be good at those?

1234
00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:50,960
Speaker 1: Would he not? He could be. He's got it, got

1235
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 1: a cannon on him.

1236
00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 2: Just throw it, don't shoot it, just just chuck it.

1237
00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 1: Final headline, Guys, this is a fun one. We'll go

1238
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: with this angle, but there's a lot to un pack here.

1239
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 1: ESPN the headline reads, John Tesh to perform round Ball

1240
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 1: Rock live at the All Star Game. That's gonna be fun.

1241
00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:16,160
Speaker 1: John Tesh delivering a historic live performance of his iconic

1242
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: round Ball Rock to introduce the seventy fifth All Star Game.

1243
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 1: The press release reads, this marks the first time round

1244
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 1: Ball Rock has ever been performed live inside a sports

1245
00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:30,000
Speaker 1: arena and celebrates the NBA All Star Games return to

1246
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 1: NBC after twenty four years. They had to say inside

1247
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 1: a sports arena because we know the famous clip of

1248
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: John Tesh performing Round Ball Rock Live where he sets

1249
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 1: it all up with the voicemail Yeah exactly, Yeah, the

1250
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 1: phone message to himself that he plays and then goes

1251
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 1: into it.

1252
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1253
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: So anyway, first time in an arena. I'll give you

1254
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 1: some more though task prior to tip off. Yeah, yeah,

1255
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: that's so good. Prior to tip off of the seventy

1256
00:58:56,840 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 1: fifth All Star Game, we're gonna have Brandy and Sarah

1257
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 1: mcglach performing the US and Canadian national anthems. Great and

1258
00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: and I probably should have made this the real headline.

1259
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: Ludacris will take center court on NBA All Star Saturday

1260
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:13,480
Speaker 1: Night ahead of the Dunk Contest. He's going to hype

1261
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: up everyone and put on a performance before the dunk contest.

1262
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 1: So Ludacris Saturday, John Tesh Sunday, and some great singers

1263
00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:23,640
Speaker 1: for the anthems. Is this news?

1264
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 2: You think?

1265
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 4: We'll be excited as we sit here and record our

1266
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 4: live stream as we watch, hopefully you'll be watching with us.

1267
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 2: On Saturday night.

1268
00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 4: Saturday Night, we get the three point Contest, we get

1269
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:37,760
Speaker 4: the shootout shooting Stars so bad those are back to back,

1270
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:40,960
Speaker 4: and then a Ludacris performance I suppose before the dunk contest.

1271
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm stand up, we'll be standing up, we're.

1272
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 2: Throwing bo Yeah.

1273
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 4: I do like Tesh is playing to introduce the All

1274
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 4: Star Game on Sunday. Yeah, that's good timing, right, I.

1275
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 1: Think so do Yes? I assume that's what's going to happen.

1276
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,439
Speaker 1: You're right, Yeah, that's how we'll introduce the players. John

1277
01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Tesh just killing it on the on the keyboards. Will

1278
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:06,919
Speaker 1: we wear a vest? You better wear a vest? Vest

1279
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 1: is best? Yeah, the John Tesh. They haven't announced halftime

1280
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 1: of the All Star Game yet, is that right?

1281
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,080
Speaker 2: I can't think so.

1282
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know. They should pick somebody from Los Angeles,

1283
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: but they're really well there is. There's not really a

1284
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: halftime anymore. There's a bunch of breaks, that's true. Great point.

1285
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, last year was San fran They used San Francisco

1286
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 4: Legends to introduce the games on Sunday night, like introduced

1287
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 4: the players before Sunday night.

1288
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,280
Speaker 2: That's what they did last year. It was right, It

1289
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: was really good. Did you do it? He was part

1290
01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:43,360
Speaker 2: of it? I don't remember, now, Rafael.

1291
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: There was somebody else to Yeah, yeah, there was.

1292
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 4: There were more and they were good, too short, but

1293
01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:56,640
Speaker 4: then you know, the game's screwed up, so it's good

1294
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:58,280
Speaker 4: test in the right spot. But yeah, guess they don't

1295
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 4: do a halftime performance any work because the reason behind

1296
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 4: it is it takes too long quite often, but that's

1297
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,720
Speaker 4: the problem with these individual quarters.

1298
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 1: To top three songs from Lucris on Saturday to get

1299
01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:12,320
Speaker 1: your hype.

1300
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 5: For the dunk contest, he's got to do what's your

1301
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 5: fantasy ye breakout song? I would also say for me,

1302
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:24,720
Speaker 5: Southern hospitality, throw them bows and what in the world is.

1303

Speaker 2: You got that?

1305
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 5: Those are my jams, the great pick. I still ask

1306
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 5: people what they got in that bag? Like if I

1307
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 5: see one of my kids with a bag, I'm of

1308
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 5: course asking what the world is it?

1309
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 3: It? Right?

1310
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:37,760

1312
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 4: of Ludacrous songs. I do think that the bow's.

1313
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 5: That's that's my gold Okay, yeah, yeah, that's probably actually
