1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,320
Speaker 1: Ranking every state based on how good it field to

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: come out as a poop. Hawaii's pretty interesting. This might

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: feel this might be, this feels good. We just got

4
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:08,280
Speaker 1: a little few tiny ones.

5
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 2: Idaho.

6
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: Dude, it's so thick down here. This part would feel decent.

7
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, this would there's red there. Illinois perfect,

8
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: not not not perfect, but holy dude, there's this little

9
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: bump here. But I don't think it matters like that

10
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: would feel that's almost perfect shape. Indiana this, this would

11
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: feel good.

12
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: Iowa.

13
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: That is really wide. This there's gonna be that's gonna hurt.

14
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 1: Same thing with here, even wider. You're gonna have to

15
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 1: go with red. Kentucky perfect, just you know, flip it

16
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: a little bit and we're chilling. Louisiana.

17
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 3: Oo.

18
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 4: That would that would hurt.

19
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: That would not that's red.

20
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 4: Look at that right.

21
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 5: There's good morning, sweet and welcome to the Now Dumps

22
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 5: podcast on the Athletic Network.

23
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 4: It's Tuesday, March fourth, twenty twenty five. I'm Jay Skeets

24
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 4: here in the Classic Factory. Despite our neon sign not

25
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 4: working alongside me. It's the one A top shot hot boy.

26
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 4: Try Kirby hey over Yonder making the magic happen. Super

27
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 4: producer JD. Hello, there he is, and still paying off

28
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 4: his pickam loss from last month. Heavy is the head

29
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 4: that wears the throne. It's task, mellis.

30
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: I got a footstool. I feel quite quite ex traffickant

31
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 2: right now. I mean, look at me. This is ridiculous.

32
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: I don't know if I complained about my legs being sore,

33
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: but somebody felt the need to put in a footstool

34
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: here in the bathroom.

35
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 4: So not an official potty squatty or squatty potty or

36
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 4: whatever the heck. It's called just a regular old stool.

37
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 2: Yes, I guess so it feels It does feel better.

38
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: I guess it will help for the potential hemorrhoids. It

39
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: takes a little pressure off the buttox, so I got

40
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 2: somewhere to put my feet. It does look hilarious, I

41
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: do recommend. I've never actually used one at home, but

42
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: apparently it does help for exactly what that cold open

43
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 2: was talking about, right, the way things come out of you.

44
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: That man, we just had a cold open about the

45
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 2: way states look like feces. That how fitting.

46
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're having quite the week here. JD's having way

47
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 4: too much bud I'll tell you right now.

48
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

49
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: Yes, so podcast listeners might want to check out the

50
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 4: YouTube stream once again, hit the like button, subscribe, and

51
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 4: podcast listeners leave. Was a five star reading and review.

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,279
Speaker 4: Yeah you didn't get to see this yesterday.

53
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 3: I was going to miss seeing this with my eyeballs.

54
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 4: True. True, But now you're like, you're in it.

55
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: You know.

56
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I won't be in that bathroom. I heard

57
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 3: there's a camera in there now.

58
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. Weird, very dangerous, might be illegal.

59
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: I'm not sure has anybody used this bathroom in the

60
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: last twenty four hours since we last recorded JD. I

61
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: don't I don't think.

62
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've had a few, like I don't know, YouTube

63
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 4: accidents where suddenly the stream goes for whatever reason.

64
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, gotta be careful for it.

65
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, holy moly. Okay, let's get into some basketball talk

66
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,920
Speaker 4: a little bit later in this show. We'll break down

67
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 4: some potential Kevin Durant trade destinations here from the guys

68
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 4: where they think he might land this offseason. But some

69
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 4: games last night, we got to start with some very

70
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 4: unfortunate news. Kyrie Irving suffering a left knee sprain last night.

71
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 4: He did shoot free throws for the MAVs. He had

72
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 4: tears rolling down his cheeks before leaving the floor in

73
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 4: obvious pain. Late in the first quarter, he banged his

74
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: knee as he was driving to the to the rim

75
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 4: and then that sort of left leg buckled right and

76
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 4: hyper extended. I guess better way to put it, and

77
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 4: didn't look good. Tk He remained down on the floor,

78
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 4: like I said, hit the free throws. But my god,

79
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 4: this nightmare season for the Dallas Mavericks continues.

80
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, super bummer for the Mavericks. Kyrie has been playing

81
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: awesome since the Luka dontach trade. I mentioned last week

82
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 3: that he's been a really good lead for this team,

83
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 3: saying all the right stuff about everything that happened, and

84
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 3: just look like a nasty injury. It looked like it

85
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 3: could have been an injury on his right leg, like

86
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 3: you're saying. He kind of like hits knees with Valentunas

87
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 3: steps on his foot as well, and then whatever happens

88
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: to his knee. I guess they're calling it a knee sprain.

89
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 3: Today we'll probably hear some further information about it. But

90
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 3: the MAVs are obviously in trouble here. You know, it

91
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 3: was a common trade deadline take that if something were

92
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 3: to happen to Kyrie Irving, the MAVs wouldn't really have

93
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: a backup creator behind him. So I guess it's Spencer

94
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: Dinwiddie because Jayden Hardy went out with a sprained ankle

95
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: in this one as well. Other than that, like Brandon

96
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 3: Williams is around, Max Christie maybe steps up, Jason kidd

97
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 3: perhaps gets a special dispensation to just move the ball

98
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 3: around out on the perimeter. They don't got creators.

99
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 4: You can win games in.

100
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 3: The regular season playing a very small lineup. We saw

101
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 3: the Rockets do that years ago when they had Westbrook

102
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 3: basically playing center. But you gotta have creators to be

103
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: able to pull it off. And right now the Mavericks

104
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: aren't gonna have any creators. And the timing of it's

105
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 3: really bad. Like they're in a play in playoff.

106
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: Race right now.

107
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 3: That seems like it's going to be going by the wayside.

108
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 3: Though they got a little bit of a cushion on

109
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 3: the eleven seeded Sons who aren't winning any games. No,

110
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 3: I guess maybe it's eleven seeded Blazers.

111
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 4: Now, I don't know.

112
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 3: I don't actually remember.

113
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: Still the sun still the sun.

114
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 3: Still the sun's for the time being. Nonetheless, yeah, Mads

115
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 3: might stick in tenth, which I guess is beneficial for

116
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: them at least get a play in game. But being

117
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 3: so late in the season, happening in March here, it

118
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 3: puts next year in jeopardy for Kyrie Irving as well,

119
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 3: depending on what the diagnosis ends up being.

120
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right, Tass. I mean, we're waiting on the severity,

121
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 4: we're waiting on the news of how bad this is.

122
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 4: But you saw it. It didn't look good. I mean,

123
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 4: he couldn't put any pressure on it, like was down

124
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 4: for a long time. Like I said, Then you know,

125
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 4: he decides to shoot the free throws because if you're

126
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 4: ever going to come back in that game somehow, you

127
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: have to shoot those free throws. You can't just leave

128
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: the floor. Reminiscent of the late Kobe Bryant, no doubt,

129
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 4: when he hit I guess two game tying foul shots

130
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 4: for the Lakers way back in twenty thirteen after he

131
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 4: tore his achilles tendon late in the fourth quarter of

132
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 4: that game. But yeah, what's your take away here, Tasks.

133
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 4: Besides obviously it's just being brutal news for Dallas Mavericks fans.

134
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 2: This was Kyrie's team, This was his baby. It was

135
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 2: on his shoulders to make this team fight or fly.

136
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: I mean it was it was on him, and I'm

137
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: sure he feels extremely terrible. As you said, he was

138
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 2: back at his bench and then he remembered, oh yeah,

139
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: if I'm going to come back, I've got to shoot

140
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 2: those free throws. So they carried him out there and

141
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: you could see the tears rolling down his eyes and

142
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 2: rolling down his entire face. I mean, it was You

143
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 2: don't excite to see a man cry in an NBA

144
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 2: game too often, but that's clearly what was happening to Kyririi.

145
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 2: And this this just feels bad because I think here

146
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 2: in his post thirties life, this was his chance to

147
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: try and lead a team as far as it could

148
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: possibly go. Even before Luca was traded, this was sort

149
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 2: of Kyrie's team because Luca played in fewer than half

150
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 2: game this season. But then after Luca was traded, it

151
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: was definitely Kyrie's team. And I think he's trying to

152
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 2: reconcile for a lot of mistakes that he's made in

153
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: the past. Brooklyn did not work out. Leading in Boston

154
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: did not work out the Cleveland experienced the first time,

155
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: where he was just a baby, he was such a

156
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: young player. Then Lebron came in and Kyrie left and

157
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: reportedly said, I want to be what Lebron is. I

158
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 2: want to have what he has. I want my friends

159
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 2: to be able to come on the airplane. I think

160
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 2: he wants just to rectify that. And this was his opportunity,

161
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: and that's why he was crying at that free throw line.

162
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 2: And I think in a weird way, it's okay. It

163
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 2: shows that it's okay for men to cry. It's totally fine.

164
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 2: I mean, he may just be crying because of the injury,

165
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 2: but yeah, to see him hobble out there and you

166
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: could see that he didn't want to land again on

167
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 2: that left leg. He just he pulled it up and

168
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 2: it was a sort of reminiscent of Janista Kumpo hyper

169
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 2: extending his leg before the NBA Finals and twenty one. Now,

170
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: I'm not saying that Kyrie's gonna pull Yannis and come

171
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 2: back in one week and come back, but there is

172
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: the chance that he does come back. Now it is

173
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: going to be interesting to see what happens in the

174
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 2: ten to eleven, twelve spots because they have nobody, as

175
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 2: Trey was saying, they have nobody to create in this

176
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 2: game in Sacramento against Sacramento, the first ten minutes of

177
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 2: the third quarter, without Kyrie, they're in single digits. They

178
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 2: weren't scoring, and so they picked it up a little bit.

179
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's gonna be rough.

180
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 4: Still without obviously their top three big guys. Anthony Davis

181
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 4: is one of the guys out there in street clothes

182
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 4: helping Kyrie. Irving hobble around. Derek Leveley the second still out,

183
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,199
Speaker 4: Daniel Gaffert still out. You added the hardy news. I mean,

184
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 4: just like insult to injury, injury to injury. I guess

185
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 4: with his right ankle screen having to leave this. We

186
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 4: had a lot of guys leaving NBA games last night.

187
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 4: There were a ton of injuries across the board. So yeah,

188
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 4: it's just a matter of like are the sun so

189
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 4: bad or are the Blazers playing too much of a

190
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 4: catchup to overtake. I think the Dallas Mavericks for that

191
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: ten seed. Otherwise they're just sort of gonna back their

192
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 4: way in probably two, maybe one, maybe two games in

193
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: a play in tournament.

194
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, three and a half game lead on the Suns

195
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: for eleventh, and a four game lead on the Trailblazers

196
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: right now, Blazers are playing a lot better than the

197
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 3: Suns are. Sons feel like they're just done, I mean,

198
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: task flush them down the toilet yesterday. So unless there

199
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 3: were plumbing problems, I think, let me check here. The Blazers, though,

200
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 3: I guess maybe they could make a run and be

201
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 3: nice for them to get a play in appearance. But

202
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if Dallas sticks, just because they

203
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 3: do have a little bit of a cushion here. I

204
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 3: just don't really know how they're gonna do it. Like

205
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 3: I think Max Christie's gonna have to start. He didn't

206
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: start last night. He's kind of hit cold patch here

207
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 3: after a really hot start after the Luca trade. Dinwoodie,

208
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: I imagine we'll have to start as well, just trying

209
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 3: to get as much offense as they can possibly get

210
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 3: on the court.

211
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally right. The Suns do have the toughest schedule

212
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 2: the rest of the way, so it's unlikely they're gonna

213
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: make up for it. But the Blazers have a pretty

214
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 2: tough schedule too, so that bodes well further than Mavsen.

215
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: Who knows what the doctor say about this hyper extended me.

216
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 2: It could be a few weeks, which it doesn't bode well,

217
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: but it bodes well for their playoff chances. I just

218
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: want that for the MAVs to get guys back for

219
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 2: the playoffs. So we have ten incredibly good playoff teams,

220
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 2: because if they do get Kyrie Beck and they get

221
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis back, they do have a really good playoff game.

222
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 4: Sure. And the Kings, I mean, look, it almost feels

223
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 4: like they were handed this one with the Kyrie injury.

224
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 4: That said, no Sabonis, he's out for a little bit.

225
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: And their starters played really well in terms of DeRozan

226
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 4: and Keegan Murray and Zach Lavine and Monk and JV

227
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 4: holding down the middle, all of them positive in this game,

228
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 4: like huge. I mean, it was the starters that won

229
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 4: them this game, especially after the Kyrie Irving injury, so

230
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 4: a much needed win. They're thirty two and twenty eight.

231
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 4: The Mavericks have played a couple more games. They're thirty

232
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 4: two and thirty, but Sacramento obviously fighting for positioning as well.

233
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 4: Trying to either get home court advantage in a play

234
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 4: in tournament or you know, two cracks at it to

235
00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,719
Speaker 4: get into the playoffs being in the seventh or ee seed.

236
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 3: Think that's a big win for Sacramento because it was

237
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 3: pretty even going into halftime. You know, the MAVs recovered

238
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 3: well after the Kyrie injury in the first quarter. Things

239
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 3: were looking you know, up in the air at least

240
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 3: going into the third quarter, and Sacramento just went out

241
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 3: and took it thirty four to sixteen in the quarter.

242
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 3: Five offensive rebounds. They couldn't cape Valanchunos off the offensive

243
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 3: class five threes as well for Sacramento, a couple of

244
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 3: those were off offensive rebounds. Kick it out and find

245
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: Jake Laravia knocks it down. Their eighth in the West.

246
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: Like you said, they're only a half game back of

247
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 3: six right now. They beat a team that's below them

248
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 3: in the Mavericks, so that counts as like a double

249
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: win almost. They got a nice cushion here with sabonas out.

250
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: They've won four straight by double digits. Zach Lavine is

251
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 3: the reigning Western Conference Player of the Year. Right now,

252
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 3: Sacramento after that disaster against Golden State, where it's like, uh,

253
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 3: what are you guys doing? They figured it out a

254
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 3: little bit, so, you know, four game losing streak on

255
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 3: the way.

256
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know it just chicked it. Sorry, kings Fence.

257
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 4: All right, let's move to shake Gildas Alexander powering the

258
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 4: Thunder to their fiftieth win with his latest fifty point

259
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 4: another one for SGA here tk as the Thunder take

260
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: care of the very banged up Houston Rockets. We watched

261
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 4: a lot of this one on playback. They're missing four

262
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 4: starters the Houston Rockets, but Shae with another masterpiece.

263
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 3: Here, missing four starters and missing three guys who would

264
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: be theoretically guarding Shay gil Just Alexander, No Aman Thompson,

265
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 3: no Fred, no Dylan Brooks. Those are like their main choices.

266
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 3: So Reid Shepherd got his first start in the NBA,

267
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 3: scored a career high twenty five points, and got an

268
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 3: absolute education from Shaye gil Just Alexander. Shae was torching

269
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 3: Reed Shepherd six per seven from the field when guarded

270
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 3: by Reed Shepherd in this one, and it was like

271
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 3: he scored every which way. Sometimes Shepherd would play off him.

272
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: It's like I can't give up the drive, Shae just

273
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 3: drives right by him. So he's like, Okay, this time

274
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 3: I'm stepping up on him. Woops, step back right in

275
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 3: your face. Impressive stuff from Shae. He's got the most

276
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 3: fifty point games this season with four. They've come in

277
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 3: like seven weeks or something like that. Nobody else has

278
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 3: more than one. He's got the most forty point games

279
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 3: this season. Nine best is Jokich at seven. Most thirty

280
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 3: point games this season thirty eight. Next best is Giannis

281
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 3: with twenty eight of them. And he's got the most

282
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: twenty point games this season fifty nine of the sixty

283
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: one games that the Thunder have played At is the

284
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 3: next best with forty nine twenty point games. So I

285
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 3: looked at those two games. What happened? How did you

286
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 3: not score twenty points? Shake? Gil Jos Alexander He sat

287
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:20,839
Speaker 3: one of them and he had eighteen in the other.

288
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 3: This is so easy for him right now. You know,

289
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 3: Brian Windors is always talking about he doesn't sweat. Sometimes

290
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 3: he sweats. I see him wiping his hands on his

291
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 3: shorts all the time. But it just looks like he

292
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 3: knows the perfect counter for whatever sort of defense you're

293
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 3: gonna see they tried some zone on shade, but between

294
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 3: the lack of defenders out there and like those lineups

295
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 3: probably haven't played all that often together for the Rockets,

296
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 3: that just the cohesion wasn't there, and Shay just dominated

297
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 3: this one. They needed him to be scoring in the

298
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 3: first quarter too. He had twenty points. Ye, they were

299
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 3: a little bit of cold, and he said, I got you, guys,

300
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 3: don't worry about it.

301
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: Here's fifty.

302
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 4: Okac is now fifty and eleven on the season task

303
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 4: first team in the Western Conference to reach fifty victories

304
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 4: and it got there before any other West squad one forty.

305
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 4: You got a little light reading going on to.

306
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 2: You as well. It is fitting that the first page

307
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 2: it's called messy fun. I'm having some messy fun in here. Yeah,

308
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 2: why not?

309
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 4: You're not excited about the SGA Cars Highlights. That's the

310
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 4: Highlights magazine, Yes, objects.

311
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: I brought it myself. Well, of course, I'm excited about

312
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: Shaye dropping fifty without a team that didn't have a men. Thompson,

313
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks, Tari's and the guys that they would all

314
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 2: throw throw all of them at Chake Gildess, Alexander. Yeah,

315
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 2: it's stunk. Yes, they were starting Reach Shepherd. Yeah, who's

316
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: balling offensively along with that.

317
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 4: That's not going to be an issue, I don't think

318
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 4: for Reach Shepherd.

319
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to.

320
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 4: Be the other end.

321
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, that was SHA's chase thing you could see.

322
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 2: I mean, he could easily get into that crossover into

323
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: the pullback as he does every single time. He's always

324
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 2: going to be perfect in that number one role. It

325
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 2: is just seeing how Jalen Williams with chet Holmgren fit

326
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 2: into that two three along with Isaiah Hartenstein. So this

327
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 2: is just the trials, uh in tribulations period for the

328
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: Thunder here in the last twenty games, just to see

329
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 2: those guys as secondary guys. I am seeing Shay balling

330
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: from the three point land as well. I mean, is

331
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 2: he's just so good right now from from three forty

332
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 2: two in February and continues to be great here. What

333
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: was that noise?

334
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 4: Just like is going crazy?

335
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: Has turned into an eight year old? I didn't It

336
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: isn't me. It isn't mean. It definitely wasn't me. I

337
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 2: was I was it was me. I was asked by

338
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 2: my children.

339
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 3: Well, I thought at the time, man, we got to

340
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 3: be dropping a.

341
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 2: Perfect crime. It's hard to I can't even tell you

342
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 2: what that was. I thought I was hearing just some

343
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 2: some static in my ears, my earbuds, but no, it

344
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 2: was not me. My kids asked me today, do you

345
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: fart during the show? I said, absolutely not. I got

346
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: nothing to go. I got nothing.

347
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 4: Mark Dagnall said about SGA quote, He's got an unbelievable

348
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 4: pace to him right now. He's attacking and really hitting

349
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 4: the gas on some plays. Yeah, on other plays, he's

350
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 4: letting the defense tell him what to do and moving

351
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 4: it to his teammates. It's allowing the rest of the

352
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 4: team to play really well at the same time as him,

353
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 4: So he deserves a lot of credit. I thought that

354
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 4: was a cool quote, like pointing out like, yeah, these

355
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 4: are crazy, insane fifty point games, but oddly it is

356
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 4: still in the flow of our offense. He's picking his spots,

357
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 4: no doubt, he's obviously still getting the line. He's hitting

358
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 4: the three. He's like an assassin in the mid range.

359
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 4: But other guys are playing well still too. It's not

360
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 4: just like okay, it's just SCA. Everybody else out the

361
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 4: way that jumped out to me this season will become

362
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 4: SGA's third consecutive one, averaging thirty plus points. Only six

363
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 4: other guys have ever done that in NBA history. It's

364
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 4: a short list, and they are incredible players. Wilt Chamberlain,

365
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 4: Michael Jordan, As Robertson, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Bob McAdoo, and

366
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 4: James Harden. SGA is joining that list. That's that's a good,

367
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 4: incredible score. And man, this MVP race, it's like a

368
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 4: heavyweight fight over the last couple of months. I mean

369
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 4: all season long, but really the last couple of months.

370
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 4: This is Muhammad Ali versus Joe Fraser. Here between SGA

371
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 4: and Jokich, let me go through a few of their

372
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 4: key games. They're sort of counterpunches to each other. Let's

373
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 4: start with SGA's career high fifty four point night right.

374
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 4: He did that in January, late January January twenty second.

375
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 4: The next night, Yokich counters with thirty five points, twenty

376
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,959
Speaker 4: two rebounds, seventeen assists in a win all right, January

377
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 4: twenty ninth. So a week later for SGA, he stays HoTT.

378
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 4: He scores fifty two points January thirty first, Jokich kicks

379
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 4: off a Nuggets nine game win streak where he averages

380
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 4: thirty points per game, eleven point six rebounds, eleven assists

381
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 4: while shooting sixty two percent from the floor. Over the

382
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 4: nine game win streak, averages not one game SGA. He

383
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 4: takes those punches. On February third, he scored thirty four

384
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 4: points in twenty two minutes in all blowout win over

385
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 4: the Bucks. Okayc's next game, SGA goes for fifty points,

386
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 4: eight boards, five assists. Meanwhile, okac's on a seven game

387
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 4: win streak, so they're also racking them up. On February

388
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 4: twenty fourth, Jokich notches a career high nineteen assists against Indy.

389
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 4: He follows that up with two more triple doubles on

390
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 4: the road, and then last night, SGA scores fifty one

391
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 4: on thirty shots. Man, this is unreal, these two guys.

392
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 4: It's a two man race.

393
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: It's like it's probably gonna be LGA winver Shay's gonna

394
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:43,160
Speaker 3: win MVP.

395
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's over, but it's wild about it is Yokich

396
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 4: is gonna have better numbers than he did in any

397
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 4: of his other MVP season.

398
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's still the best player. Yeah, but Say's

399
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 3: the best scorer. And he's on the best team and

400
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 3: he brings it defensively as well. Had an awesome block

401
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 3: in this one. Like you're saying seven assists, Like took

402
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 3: thirty shots. Still seven assists only I think turnovers. Yeah,

403
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,120
Speaker 3: they're putting up crazy numbers every year. Like you're talking

404
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 3: up Jokic doing thirty eleven and eleven over a win streak.

405
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 3: He's averaging twenty nine, twelve and ten for the season. Yeah,

406
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 3: shooting incredible percentages as well. These guys are just a

407
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,959
Speaker 3: level above even in Yannis, who's having a great season

408
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 3: as well. So there are two candidates for MVP, but

409
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 3: the race is definitely over.

410
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 2: You agree with that test Well, they have a two

411
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 2: game set in Okasee March ninth and March tenth. They

412
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 2: are coming up two games Denver visiting Okac on back

413
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 2: to back nights. So I think it'll spark the conversation

414
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 2: as to how do we grade Jokic. It's not so

415
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 2: much for us, it's for the voters. Can you give

416
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 2: this guy another MVP three and four years? It just

417
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 2: doesn't happen very much in NBA history, So I think

418
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 2: that that part of the discussion will happen because as Trey,

419
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: you're saying Joki is having the better season, it's all

420
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: about wins for Shay, and the conversation will be more

421
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 2: about how we grade these guys. Will it? Will it change?

422
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 2: Will will this the way we just look at MVP

423
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 2: simply change because it's it's so much about just the

424
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 2: narrative and all that. And I felt that way coming

425
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: into this season. I felt that Jokic wasn't likely to

426
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 2: win it because they lost last year in the second

427
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 2: round in the playoffs, and that hurts. But maybe we

428
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 2: just give the vote to the best guy, and I

429
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 2: think that's that's that's what that two games will be about. Sure,

430
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 2: it'll be fun to watch, but I don't think it

431
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 2: really determines who's gonna win or not it. I think

432
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 2: it'll just get the headlines up a little bit more

433
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 2: as to how we do this thing.

434
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 4: Well, let's move on and talk a little bit about

435
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 4: the Hawks pulling off pretty miraculous win. At the end,

436
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 4: Karris LeVert last second bucket thanks to some defense from

437
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 4: Dyson Daniels to give the hawkska the one thirty two

438
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 4: to one thirty victory over the Grizzlies. Atlanta was down ten,

439
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 4: was about five thirty to go, and then it was

440
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 4: the Karris Lavert show, I mean, really got them back

441
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 4: in the game. Was and then Daniels with the defense.

442
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 4: As I know JD will fire up the clip here.

443
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 4: But your takeaways from the Hawks pulling this one out.

444
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 3: This was a wild win for Atlanta. They finished the

445
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 3: game on a nineteen to six run. And like you're saying,

446
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 3: it was basically Karris Lavert because Dyson Dan or sorry

447
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 3: Jalen Wells was all over Tree Young just not letting

448
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 3: him catch the ball. So Lavert had sixteen in the fourth,

449
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 3: went seven for eight from the field, two for three

450
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 3: from three, had a great look at a game winning

451
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 3: three pointer or with like twenty four seconds left, missed it.

452
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: But Grizzlies don't call a timeout. They try and get

453
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 3: into their offense. The ty games smart stuff. Incredible play

454
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 3: by Dyson Daniels to get the steal, then to throw

455
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 3: the pass, and then Lavert had enough poise to slow

456
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 3: down Rush, get a good layup up and get it off.

457
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 3: I think it was like point five seconds when he

458
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 3: released the layup, so not even close to coming after

459
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 3: the buzzer. That was very, very good on the flip

460
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 3: side of things, Memphis looks bad right now. They've lost

461
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 3: three straight games by game winners. They had the old

462
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 3: Dannonobi three, they had Dearon Fox hitting a mid range jumper,

463
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 3: and then they had the double ender here Dyson to LeVert.

464
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 3: Since the trade deadline, Memphis is three and seven. They're

465
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: ninth in offense twenty seventh in defense. The Hawks scored

466
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 3: eighty two points in the paint in this one, and

467
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 3: Memphis just looked like they had no idea what to

468
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 3: do offensively. In the last four minutes they scored two points.

469
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 3: Jared Jackson Junior went out with an injury in this game.

470
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 3: John Morant was not playing.

471
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 4: They have a.

472
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 3: System that relies a lot on one on one basketball,

473
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 3: not a lot of creativity. It's like, can you beat

474
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 3: your man off the dribble and score or drive and kick?

475
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 3: That works when you got John Morant and Jared Jackson

476
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 3: Junior out there. It's a different story when it's Luke

477
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 3: Canard and Desmond Bane. Canard was hooping, you know, the

478
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 3: first six minutes of the fourth quarter, and then it

479
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 3: was just late shot clock scenarios for every single possession

480
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 3: for the Grizzlies and I don't know. Their fans are

481
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 3: very mad at Taylor Jenkins. I'd be because he's not

482
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 3: really doing much offensively. They keep losing these fourth quarter leads.

483
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 3: It looks pretty bad. But the Hawks had an opportunity.

484
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 3: I thought they were buried and they came back and

485
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 3: stole this one.

486
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 2: Nice win.

487
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 4: Crazy legit stole it from that Dyson Daniel deal. Dyson,

488
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 4: excuse me, Daniels, Dyson Daniels, I'm all fluster man on

489
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,879
Speaker 4: the toilet. I'm trying to talk to that textbook defense

490
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 4: where he like, you got to show that to the

491
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 4: kids at the YMCA. I mean that was like he

492
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 4: thought over the pick. He shuffled his feet, kept his

493
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 4: hands back and then timed it perfectly tasks where he

494
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: poked it loose and then again like Trace said, had

495
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 4: to wear with all the throw it ahead to Caroselvert

496
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 4: who was off streaking right away streaking. There you go,

497
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 4: there's another one. But what do you think.

498
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: Tests Yeah, the second Dyson Daniels steal to seal a

499
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 2: game this season. His first one was prettier against Aaron Fox.

500
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 2: I think how he bodied Fox and held him up.

501
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 2: This one does beon being kind of just gave the

502
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 2: ball away and losing the ball. Desmond being a bad

503
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 2: close to this game because as Trey was saying, no Moran,

504
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 2: no Jeron Jackson Junior closed this game that we have

505
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 2: all been wondering who are the closers for this team

506
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 2: as they struggling fourth quarters and Desmond being traveled just

507
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 2: a minute before that, and gave this ball away here

508
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 2: strictly kind of just gave it away, although Dyson Daniels

509
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 2: was in a perfect spot to grab a ball, because

510
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: that's what Dyson Daniels does. The most steals since twenty

511
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 2: nineteen in an NBA season. Great season for him, obviously,

512
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 2: it is worrisome for the Grizzlies. Number one Jarreon Jackson

513
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 2: Junior got hurt in the first two minutes of this game.

514
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 2: And that's why the Hawks dropping fifty points at the

515
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 2: paint in the first half, Yeah, because there's no one there,

516
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 2: and then eighty two for the game. That's it's a

517
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 2: huge number. And they always come back at the end

518
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 2: of games. That's what the Hawks do. They were, yeah,

519
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 2: down ten with five minutes left. It's always just let's scramble,

520
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: let's scramble and get it done. And they got it

521
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 2: don carrselvert beauty euro step to finish that baby off.

522
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: So a fun ending, although yeah, the worst part here

523
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 2: is the Grizzlies are trying to run up and down

524
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 2: the floor and beat teams with fast break points and

525
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 2: are struggle in those fourth quarter moments. But the running's

526
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,959
Speaker 2: going to stop in playoff games when playoff defenses are

527
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 2: getting back. We all know that. And so the worrisome

528
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: part is, Desmond Ban, can you be that guy? Jared

529
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 2: Jackson Junior? Can you be that guy sometimes? Again? And

530
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 2: I thought against the Knicks on Friday night, jrum Errant

531
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 2: was that guy. He was looking spectacular. But you know,

532
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 2: on the other side of a Brunson and Og Combo

533
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 2: got him.

534
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,919
Speaker 4: Rischache had a great game for the Hawks. Just want

535
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 4: to slip that in there. Twenty seven points for the

536
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 4: rook probably his second or third best game of the

537
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 4: entire season when you look at the whole scope of it.

538
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 4: So really good stuff from him chipping in there. And yeah,

539
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 4: Desmond Ban, I mean he had a game. He had

540
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,680
Speaker 4: a great game in triple double, thirty five point triple double.

541
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 4: So you know, I know we're pointing out all the

542
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 4: mistakes because he had the travel and then obviously a

543
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 4: bad turnover at the end, and that's unfortunate for the

544
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 4: most party. Played really damn well.

545
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 2: Which I didn't score in the fourth quarter though, No.

546
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 4: No, they locked in on him and he came up short.

547
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 4: Any other takeaways from either that game or any of

548
00:25:58,920 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 4: the other last night's games.

549
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 3: I wonder if the Jimmy Butler honeymoon is over for

550
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 3: Golden State. Just a regular happy marriage now, you know.

551
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 4: Came in looked awesome.

552
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 3: Eighteen points a game, five rebounds, five assists in his

553
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 3: first six games with the Warriors. That was what they

554
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 3: were hoping to get getting Jimmy Butler. The last four games,

555
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 3: he had six points on eight shots in a win

556
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 3: against Charlotte, five points on seven shots in a win

557
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 3: against Orlando, rested against Philadelphia, and then last night thirteen

558
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 3: points on seven shots and yet another win over the Hornets.

559
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 3: So I'm like, is this Jimmy just kind of settling

560
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 3: into regular season mode where I will play hard when

561
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 3: you need me to play hard. That was a problem

562
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 3: in Miami. Pat Riley called him out for it. But look,

563
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 3: they won these three games where Jimmy was taking single

564
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 3: digit shots. Here they're against Charlotte twice in Orlando. These

565
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 3: are teams that Golden State, playing as well as they

566
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 3: have been, should beat. I think Jimmy sees the schedule

567
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 3: and says, yeah, we can beat those teams with me

568
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 3: hardly going at it here, but he's totally going at

569
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 3: it here.

570
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 4: That's disappointed.

571
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 3: I thought this team was supposed to be ramping up

572
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 3: for the playoffs, trying to figure things out. Things are

573
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: still working good for it, yeah, because they still they've

574
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 3: seen a favorable schedule and Jimmy still is helping the

575
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 3: team even if he's not trying to take over. But

576
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 3: this is this is the stuff that was driving pat

577
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 3: Riley crazy, not getting the full Jimmy when that's what

578
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 3: they're paying for.

579
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 4: Right. So they're back from the honeymoon in Fiji. We're

580
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 4: just living now. Now you're like, oh, we gotta worry

581
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 4: about bills and store.

582
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, got a dinner plan.

583
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 4: To interesting, something to keep watching. Though they got the victory,

584
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 4: like Tray said, tasks.

585
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the wors some part is the injuries, because we're

586
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 2: all wondering will Jimmy have the Tom Thibodeau effect here

587
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: At some point of his career, didn't play last year

588
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, he did set out at Philadelphia game,

589
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 2: according to the team, because of back spasms. So the

590
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 2: fact that he came back you could look at it

591
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 2: as a good sign. But yeah, the single digit shots

592
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 2: are definitely happening from Jimmy, And I was just I

593
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 2: just wonder what's going to happen in the playoffs in

594
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 2: the postseason. Are we going to get a full throttle Jimmy.

595
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 2: Maybe yes, maybe he is waiting for this time because

596
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 2: we know that he doesn't give it at all every

597
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 2: single game in the regular season, but we could see

598
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 2: Jimmy turn it up in the offseason.

599
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 4: Looking stationary the last couple of games, there's not a

600
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 4: lot of Jimmy Butler movement really out there, which is

601
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 4: playing into the part of him not contributing much. But yeah,

602
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 4: they got the victory. Any other games tasks you want

603
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 4: to touch.

604
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,719
Speaker 2: On, well, just touch on that game right there. I

605
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 2: was interested in Charlotte. It is our nut dust Bowl

606
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 2: entry that looks like the worst team right now, so

607
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 2: I wanted to see what they could do against Steph

608
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 2: coming back to his hometown. So I was listening to

609
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 2: the broadcast. I heard Brandon Miller, who is out, most

610
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 2: likely for the rest of the season because of a

611
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 2: cast on his right hand because of a wrist injury.

612
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: He said that he is beating everybody with his left

613
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 2: hand in shot competitions. No one has beaten him, no one,

614
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 2: and so looking forward to next season, it's.

615
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 4: More of ament to the rest of the Hornets team.

616
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's both, it's both.

617
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 6: It's what do you know, they're twenty eighth and three.

618
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 6: That's crazy. He can start ripping it with his left hand.

619
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,200
Speaker 6: Next season, maybe we'll see some shots with his left hand.

620
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 3: Oh oh, incredible to John salon turnover. Uh this one

621
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 3: he traveled twice on the same play and double dribbled.

622
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 4: Yes, he's.

623
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:30,360
Speaker 3: Young, he's very he's raw. He's so raw. They haven't

624
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: even sliced the beef off yet.

625
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 4: No, he got he got popped in the neck or

626
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 4: the head by Draymond Green, who guys, I guess it

627
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 4: got upgraded to a flagrant. I think I think Draymond's

628
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 4: at twelve. If you're keeping track of technicals or whatever, Yeah,

629
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 4: that's technicals. Yeah, so you got to get to sixteen.

630
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 4: But keep your eye on.

631
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 2: That, Draymond. Yeah, we will keep an eye on that. Surprisingly. Yeah,

632
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 2: we saw some some Draymond tex not not surprising. But

633
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 2: on the other side, he just kept fighting. He just

634
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 2: kept fighting for boards, kept fighting defensively, do the things

635
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 2: that they needed. What what didn't surprise me was listening

636
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: to the broadcast. You know where man air Collins always screaming,

637
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 2: screaming when the Hornets do but they he would, he

638
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 2: would do it. It's a classic Hornets thing where they

639
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 2: have a terrible possession. Then LaMelo would get the ball

640
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 2: back and shoot a ball and he'd hit a three

641
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 2: to bring them from twelve down to nine down. He

642
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 2: just Air Collns just can't help him. No, he just

643
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: has to. It doesn't matter where they are in the game.

644
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 2: It's so strange seeing this team play. They just have

645
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 2: bad possession and then I'll have an okay, one Lamel

646
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 2: shoot off one leg. Sure it might go down, but

647
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 2: this team is just pretty disappointing overall.

648
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 3: Steve Kerr also was upset in this game. He got

649
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 3: a technical because he got a technical complaining about a

650
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 3: travel and I don't even know what he was complaining about.

651
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 3: Was he complaining about the first the play where Nurkic

652
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 3: catches it inside. He like jumps, stops, doesn't move and

653
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 3: then gets fouled. But then on the very next like

654
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 3: on the inbounds play, it's LaMelo catches the ball, he

655
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 3: maybe travels on the possession. That's when Kerk got the tech. Yeah,

656
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,959
Speaker 3: Lamello caught it. After the screen and roll, he basically

657
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 3: says he wants more travels called. It would be good

658
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 3: for the game because footwork is the basis of the game.

659
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 3: I thought that was a good point. It definitely yes.

660
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 3: But he also is like everybody in the stands saw

661
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 3: was a travel. I was like, you cannot trust fans

662
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 3: in the stands. They don't know the rules.

663
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 4: No, he did say. I saw Steve say after watching

664
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 4: film he saw his own team travel four times in

665
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 4: Saturday Night's loss to the seventy six or then none

666
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 4: of them were called. So he's being fair about this.

667
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 4: He's like, not only are you blowing missed foul travel

668
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 4: calls on the other team, but you're not You're not

669
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 4: even calling them on our team. So let's get better.

670
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 4: So he wants, uh, you know, he wants the officials

671
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 4: to get better at calling travels in this league.

672
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: Test He's not wrong, No, he is right.

673
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, they do it better. And so one thing, international

674
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 4: referees are a little bit utter at the travels.

675
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, the traveling and the carrying of the ball is

676
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 2: happening more in NBA games, And I guess Steve Crow

677
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 2: is just talking to the Referees Association. He's just speaking

678
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 2: straight to them. Hey, fix it, because it is a

679
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 2: little annoying. And I and I know people are getting

680
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 2: a little bit more just just angry watching guys come

681
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 2: down the floor and carry a little bit, travel a

682
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 2: little bit. That's understandable. That's something they can rectify. I

683
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 2: mean it was just last year where guys like Trey

684
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 2: Young would just sell some contact and they would get

685
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 2: a foul. Not anymore, they rectified that.

686
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 4: It's gone down for sure.

687
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, take time. All right.

688
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 4: Well we'll see if they start calling these travels. I

689
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 4: highly dote it. Yeah, we don't want more travels. You

690
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 4: don't want to need more.

691
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 3: We don't need more whistles and stoppages. I like highlights, okay.

692
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I had the I always post the

693
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 4: highest dunk score from the night. The other night, Yannis

694
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 4: had it and it was a travel He definitely travels,

695
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 4: and like, oh my god, that's so that's a trouble,

696
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 4: that's a travels like, Well, yeah, they didn't call it.

697
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 4: It's dunk, it's two points, But I understand your concern.

698
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 3: Hilarious. One last sight as well.

699
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 4: Yep, all right, Well let's pivot here from last night's games,

700
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 4: because barring a miracle turnaround, the Phoenix Suns are going

701
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 4: to fall way short of at least expectations this season.

702
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 4: They're twenty eight and thirty three, good enough for just

703
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 4: eleventh in the West, just ahead of the twelfth seeded Blazers,

704
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 4: despite having the highest payroll in the league. So it's bad.

705
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 4: It's very bad in Phoenix. And because of this, NBA

706
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 4: insiders like Wendy and Chalms, they're reporting that Phoenix is

707
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 4: ready to make real changes this summer and will look

708
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 4: to trade Kevin Durant in the off season. The franchise

709
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 4: already tried to trade him at the deadline. Katie essentially

710
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 4: blocked that trade to the Warriors. He had no interest

711
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 4: in moving mid season or rejoining his old team. But

712
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 4: this begs the question, if everyone knows Durant is going

713
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 4: to be dealt, where will he land, what will that

714
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,200
Speaker 4: deal look like? Who should take a risk or not.

715
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 4: So let's talk it out here and start with you, Trey.

716
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 4: I mean, the question is simple, is there a favorite

717
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 4: of yours, the best Kevin Durant sort of trade destination

718
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:17,879
Speaker 4: or if you even want to start, like should any

719
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 4: team considering his age and obviously is costing all that

720
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 4: want to be in the Katie sweepstakes, he still think

721
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 4: he's got something left to contribute to a team.

722
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 3: Katie's obviously got something left. The guy is still a

723
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 3: thirty point per game scorer. He's shooting an incredible percentage,

724
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 3: specifically from the mid range. He's shooting great from three

725
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 3: as well. It doesn't get to the rim as often.

726
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 3: And like you're saying he is older, he's gonna be

727
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,320
Speaker 3: thirty seven at the start and next season and after

728
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,879
Speaker 3: this year, when the Suns missed the playoffs, Kevin Durant

729
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 3: will have won two playoff series in the last five years.

730
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 3: He will have won zero playoff games in the last

731
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 3: two seasons, including this one in the sweep last year

732
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 3: at the hands of the Timberwolves, who everybody picked the Timberwolves,

733
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 3: not me, but everybody else picked the Timberwolves. At this point,

734
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant to me is a finishing piece. He's not

735
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 3: a foundational piece of your team. You would need him

736
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,880
Speaker 3: as like your number two score at the max. I

737
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 3: do believe, And the question there's a few questions that

738
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 3: need to be answered first, like what's the cost going

739
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,720
Speaker 3: to be? Because that is a huge thing. The cost

740
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 3: for the Suns has been too much. This is a

741
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 3: huge part of the reason why they've been a disappointment

742
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 3: this season. They were better before they traded for Kevin Durant.

743
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 3: That Bradley Beal thing was the final nail in the coffin,

744
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 3: but they traded away a lot of their depth. Then

745
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 3: they involved the Duran in some of these personnel decisions,

746
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 3: which led to Nurkic replacing DeAndre Ayton and another rotation

747
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 3: piece potentially into many Kamara going out as well. So

748
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 3: they've seen a lot of brain drain in Phoenix and

749
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 3: haven't had a way to really bring it back. So

750
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 3: what's going to cost to get Kadi? Because he even

751
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 3: said to Draymond, He's like, Yeah, I just didn't want

752
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 3: to move to a team that's going to have to

753
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 3: pay to get me because then there's nothing left. So

754
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 3: that's tough. The Sons, we got to figure out what

755
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 3: they want. Do they want to retool around Devin Booker, who.

756
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 4: They say they are not trading. I mean they are

757
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,280
Speaker 4: coming out and saying that.

758
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 3: This guy is having the most anonymous season. Yeah, we

759
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 3: haven't about Devin Booker hardly at all. We've talked about

760
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 3: Durant and Beale way more. Or do they actually want

761
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 3: to full on rebuild doesn't seem likely. Mattieshbia doesn't seem

762
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 3: like that's something he would want to do. And then

763
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 3: I think the playoffs are going to answer a lot

764
00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 3: of questions, like if Houston fall short, they maybe are

765
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 3: interested in Kevin Durant, But in general, I think young

766
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 3: teams should just keep bruing on what they're doing. Okay, See,

767
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 3: I would say is a massive no on trading for

768
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:24,800
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant and bringing him back.

769
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 4: Even if they fall up, like even if shockingly short

770
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 4: in the playoffs, even if even if you're not considering

771
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 4: trading I.

772
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,879
Speaker 3: Guess swept in the first round, maybe it's different.

773
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 4: Okay, but outside of that, you're not trading a Hartenstein

774
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 4: and a Caruso or a dort and whatever draft capital

775
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 4: it would take for a kick. I wouldn't interesting taus you, okay,

776
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 4: let's start with that. You agree with that sort of

777
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 4: like oka see if it was a disaster in the

778
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 4: playoffs and they flamed out very early because they expect

779
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 4: to obviously compete for a championship, so I assume conference

780
00:36:56,080 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 4: finals or bust, probably finals or busted. Would they at

781
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 4: least consider a KD trade or what should they? No?

782
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 2: I don't think it's for them. I think they should

783
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 2: continue with their incredibly young core and just go forward

784
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 2: with it. Because if you are trading for somebody who's

785
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 2: definitely got a couple two to three, maybe four good

786
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 2: years left, Yeah, it doesn't bode well. It doesn't make sense.

787
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,840
Speaker 2: It just doesn't work with their timeline period.

788
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 4: What team, then do you see as a possibility to

789
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 4: make a realistic move for Kevin Durant? And maybe it

790
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 4: does come down to what trade is saying, like which

791
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 4: of these teams flame out in the playoffs? Like is

792
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 4: it the Rockets, Maybe it's the Timberwolves. Like you do

793
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,800
Speaker 4: get teams that panic, so to speak, because it doesn't

794
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 4: go well and they want to switch it up. But

795
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 4: do you have a trade destination in mind?

796
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 2: I think the Timberwolves could see a situation where they

797
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 2: just say we need something different. We need a guy

798
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,400
Speaker 2: who is sort of the co leader. Definitely could be

799
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 2: the number two score, but you definitely we see what's

800
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 2: happening in Phoenix. You need somebody to be the leader,

801
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 2: and Anthony Edwards would still be that guy. I think

802
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 2: the package coming back the other way would be the

803
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 2: problem in that situation. I think they would be happy

804
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,839
Speaker 2: to get off Rudy Gobert to be the primary part

805
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 2: of it along with Picks, and the Phoenix Suns could say, Okay, well,

806
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 2: Devin and Rudy can maybe work it out together. But

807
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: I think we've seen It's been a short amount of

808
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 2: time in Minnesota, but you can sort of look back

809
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 2: to his Utah days with Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, they

810
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 2: had one very good, very good run at conference finals

811
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 2: and this Minnesota team, yes, it was just the second

812
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 2: round last year where they were able to beat Denver

813
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 2: and getting to a conference finals themselves. But it sort

814
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 2: of feels that way where Rudy is just not clicking

815
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: the way he used it. But I don't know if

816
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: Phoenix would actually do something that. It doesn't seem like

817
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 2: good enough package for Phoenix at this point.

818
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 3: I think it's more likely they've had trade Julius Randall

819
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 3: then Rudy Gobert. Gobert seems like a big piece of

820
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 3: what they're still trying to do, even if he's taking

821
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 3: a little bit of a step back. But I don't

822
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 3: mind Minnesota as well. He would be a clear upgrade

823
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:12,400
Speaker 3: over Jade McDaniels, Jaylen McDaniels, Jay Did McDaniels. This is

824
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,240
Speaker 3: the only one I get messed up on every single time.

825
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 4: I gotta remember that's what I do.

826
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 3: Player in the NBA is named Jalen, Right, this is

827
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 3: the one situation where Jayden is better than Jalen. Usually

828
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 3: that is confuted. He's the exception that proves the rule.

829
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 3: But I think Minnesota is like the perfect kind of

830
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,399
Speaker 3: spot for him where there's still a younger team because

831
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards is young, you know, de Vincenzo is on

832
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 3: the younger side. NOAs reed, I don't exactly know how

833
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 3: he would fit into the plans here, but go Bear's

834
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 3: a little bit older, like they're kind of caught in

835
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 3: between timelines, so I can see Durant fitting there. I

836
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 3: think Dallas makes a lot of sense. They would just

837
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 3: become the Suns all over. They're the old team with

838
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 3: nothing in the future, so we might as well just

839
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 3: try and win with these old guys. Now. I wonder

840
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 3: if the Kyrie Irving injury throws a wrench into those

841
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 3: kind of plans. Also, the last Kyrie Kdy Party partnership

842
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 3: didn't end perfectly as well. And then Miami, I think

843
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 3: is a team that should be in the mix as well.

844
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 3: They're always trading for superstars. As for young teams, Houston

845
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 3: is a little bit interesting because I think they're gonna

846
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 3: need a real offensive superstar at some point. And then

847
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 3: Detroit I think could maybe get in the mix. Yeah,

848
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 3: so again they're they're so early that I don't think

849
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,280
Speaker 3: they should do it either, right right.

850
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 5: And.

851
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, like what's coming back in theory and a hypothetical

852
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 4: Katie to Detroit trade. It's like MultiPar place. Yeah, picks

853
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 4: maybe one of their young guys, like a Ron Holland,

854
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 4: Like you're not giving up a star Thompson like.

855
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 3: He should be untouchable.

856
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 4: I think for Detroit maybe Ivy obviously out right now. Yeah,

857
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 4: the heat's interesting tasks, you know, like, like Trey said,

858
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 4: that's what Pat really does. He chases superstars, and they've

859
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,720
Speaker 4: struck out on a couple. But could they entice Phoenix

860
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 4: with a Wiggins I guess a Terry Rozier sort of

861
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 4: deal to make money work. I don't know if a

862
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 4: young guy has to be included, be it a Hakez

863
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 4: or Aware. I think they would have two picks after

864
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 4: the draft. Maybe that's enough to get it done. Do

865
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 4: you see something there that would have Katie going to

866
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 4: the East two I mean, get out of the West,

867
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 4: help your chances to maybe go far. I don't know

868
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 4: what do you think.

869
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 2: I don't think there's enough there for matt Ishbia when

870
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 2: it comes to the star level. I mean, Matt Eshbia

871
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 2: sold everything. He told James Jones, you go make this

872
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 2: deal for Kevin Durant, I don't care what you say.

873
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 2: And for the return to be Wiggins as the prime guy.

874
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 2: I don't think that's enough now. I buy the Minnesota

875
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 2: deal a little bit more. I don't know if it's

876
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 2: Julius Randall to equate to enough of a star. I

877
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 2: think the Rudy Gobert thing might work on for Ishbia,

878
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 2: just because you now have a great defensive player. Now

879
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 2: it's it's questionable as to how they are playing right now,

880
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 2: but they're still you know, I think their six defense wise,

881
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 2: I think you can sort of sell that a little

882
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 2: bit more. Suns suddenly have a good defensive player, and

883
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 2: that's something I think that the Minnesota Timber Bowls would

884
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:09,239
Speaker 2: have to have to take, have to take a risk

885
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 2: on nas Reed being your starting center, which as Bode well,

886
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 2: I don't know what they do with Julius Randall coming

887
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 2: up to this offseason. He's a free agent. It's a

888
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 2: very very interesting scenario for them with bringing him back

889
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 2: or not. Hopefully they can all get healthy right now

890
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 2: because he is out, and maybe they can see what

891
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 2: they have going forward. But I like to see the

892
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 2: sharing of Anthony Edwards and Kevin Durant as the as

893
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 2: the guys there. So Anthony Edwards doesn't have to answer

894
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 2: all the questions, doesn't have to be the face of

895
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 2: the league kind of thing. It can be on Kevin Durant.

896
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 2: But it is an odd scenario, you know, as Trey

897
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 2: said about the where they are just age wise. So

898
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,479
Speaker 2: the Rockets thing, I don't think it makes sense because

899
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 2: of age Okay, se.

900
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 4: Wait wait wait wait, why not the Rockets though the

901
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 4: Rockets maybe did a move last offseason to set them

902
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 4: up for the Kevin Durant sweepstakes because they traded. They

903
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 4: had that trade with the Nets where they basically gave

904
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 4: the Nets their draft capital back which is more immediate,

905
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 4: and took a bunch of the Sun's future draft capital.

906
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,720
Speaker 4: And I think even Wosh, when he was still working

907
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 4: for ESPN, reported at the time, Oh, yeah, they want

908
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 4: Durant or Booker, Like that's what their belief is here,

909
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 4: and they think they can get Phoenix to sort of

910
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 4: bite by returning all their draft picks. And that makes

911
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 4: some sense, right, It's like, Okay, you are really spinning

912
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 4: your wheels. You guys have a crazy luxury tax. You're

913
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 4: not even in the playoffs, for crying out loud, despite

914
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 4: having the largest payroll in the league. You don't have

915
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 4: any of your future draft capital. We'll give it all

916
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,879
Speaker 4: back to you, and you know Van Vliet's contract and

917
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 4: one of our young guys, you know, I'll be at

918
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 4: a Tarry Esen or cam Wentmore or something. We got

919
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 4: a lot of them. We'll give you that back and

920
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 4: all your picks, and we'll take Katie and fold him

921
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 4: into our team.

922
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 3: Does this mean then that the sons would be trading

923
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 3: Devin Booker as well, because what's the point of getting

924
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 3: your picks back if you're not going to be bad.

925
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 4: To make maybe more moves. The other part of this

926
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 4: is they'd hate they don't like draft picks. So maybe

927
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 4: they're like, now we don't want them, that's why we

928
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 4: got rid of them. Yeah, I don't know. I don't

929
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 4: think so. They Then again, that could be all smoke.

930
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 4: They are really clearly saying we're trading Kevin Durant like

931
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 4: this is like a done deal.

932
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 2: He's gone.

933
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 4: Man.

934
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 3: He's saying I would have gotten traded if I didn't

935
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:19,479
Speaker 3: have to sell my house.

936
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I wondered their team sticks, but they are

937
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 4: yeah right. That sort of blew up in their face,

938
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 4: no doubt.

939
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 3: Well that Beale trying to get him to wave his

940
00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 3: no trade clause, right, tell me about to leave Phoenix.

941
00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 2: Why couldn't he just sell his house and be traded.

942
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 3: It's hard man, takes time to hire a realtor.

943
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,480
Speaker 2: You think he's in there, he's in there showing potential fires.

944
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 2: Do you like this bathroom here? This is my favorite

945
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 2: bathroom of the house. Please buy it? I I yeah.

946
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,479
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant definitely could have been traded to Golden State.

947
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 2: I think even though he went on Draymond's podcast and

948
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 2: said it had nothing to do with our history and

949
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 2: how it ended, I think there's something there and just

950
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 2: going back to a place where he wasn't anointed as

951
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 2: the guy and he didn't get the limelight that he

952
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 2: thought he was going to get. The whole Houston thing.

953
00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 2: It is going to be two years later on Kevin

954
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 2: Durant's timeline if they were to get him for next

955
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,759
Speaker 2: year's playoffs, he would be old in comparison to their

956
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 2: other guys. Now, it's an interesting scenario there. They definitely

957
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 2: need a number one score. We see it every fourth quarter.

958
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 2: We see it, there's no doubt, and it's going to

959
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 2: be interesting to see what they do. They have a

960
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:30,239
Speaker 2: team option for Fred van Vliet coming next year. The

961
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,920
Speaker 2: reason for that, the way they signed that was a

962
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 2: very interesting deal by Raphael Stone, was so that they

963
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 2: could just let other guys go and let other guys

964
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 2: sort of be their leaders and Jalen Green and Opera

965
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 2: and Chengun. So that's a huge question what they do

966
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 2: with that. He's not even going to be tradable with

967
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:49,839
Speaker 2: they if they just simply let him go, but they

968
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 2: could just pick him up and yeah, lump him together

969
00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 2: for a start. They definitely need a start. That is

970
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 2: totally true.

971
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 4: And then a lot of people are bringing up the

972
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 4: Dallas Mavericks. Why not the Mavericks? You know, Nico Harrison

973
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:02,359
Speaker 4: made it clear that the Dallas championship window it's only

974
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 4: two to three years, so okay, Durant would sort of

975
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 4: fit that concept. I just don't know how they get there.

976
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 4: And this is like obviously before the Kyrine injury last night,

977
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 4: which we're still waiting to see. How to be gotten

978
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 4: is oh how.

979
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,919
Speaker 3: About his season ending torn acl per All sources can't

980
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:19,359
Speaker 3: say I'm.

981
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 4: Shocked by that news with the guy being carried off

982
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:23,760
Speaker 4: the floor and tears in his eyes when you're shooting

983
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,320
Speaker 4: the free throws.

984
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 3: I actually think Dallas makes a ton of sense if

985
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 3: I'm being honest. They've got two swaps or two first

986
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 3: round picks and four swaps that they're able to trade

987
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,839
Speaker 3: come summertime, and Phoenix would actually be able to get

988
00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 3: back some like helpful players. Who knows who they would

989
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 3: actually throw in, but like PJ. Washington helpful player maybe

990
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 3: Lively goes back Max Christy. These are all guys that

991
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 3: could be in your rotation and actually have you being

992
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,839
Speaker 3: a decent team. The payoff would be farther down the road.

993
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 3: With these Mavericks picks, Kevin Durant could carry the team

994
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 3: until Kyrie Irving comes back healthy and makes a ton

995
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 3: of sense from both sides to.

996
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 4: Me, I get that. I just like it's difficult with

997
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 4: the contracts. I mean, maybe this is a or fourth

998
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 4: team is like folded into this, Like the MAVs have

999
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:06,320
Speaker 4: two guys that make over forty million in Ad and Kyrie,

1000
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 4: and then it's a steep drop off two guys that

1001
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 4: make sixteen fifteen, fourteen million, and then even less in

1002
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,879
Speaker 4: Lively's case. So it's like you got to put us

1003
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 4: so many guys together to get to a Kevin Durant

1004
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 4: sort of contract. That's the difficulty of that. But yeah,

1005
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 4: I mean now with the Kyrie injury, wow, damn can

1006
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,919
Speaker 4: the Suns get that tense seed? Baby? Let's go.

1007
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 2: What a nightmare for Dallas Mavericks fans this season. Even

1008
00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 2: if you could try and squint and think about your

1009
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 2: team with Kyrie and Anthony Davis this postseason, you can't anymore.

1010
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: Just close those eyes. It is a clear nightmare for

1011
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 2: this team. Horrible, horrible stuff. And I feel bad for

1012
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 2: Kyrie and that this was the team he was going

1013
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,120
Speaker 2: to try and lead and get it right as a

1014
00:47:55,200 --> 00:48:00,319
Speaker 2: leader for the first time. It's it's a horrible narrow

1015
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 2: in a bunch of those ways. I mean, he got

1016
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,279
Speaker 2: hurt in Brooklyn when Jannistampo got under him in that

1017
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 2: postseason before the Bucks went and when that title things

1018
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 2: could have been very different if Kevin Durant had Kyrie

1019
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 2: beside him, and if Kevin Durant had smaller shoes in

1020
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 2: that Game seven and the Boston thing and the Calves

1021
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,360
Speaker 2: and they went a title obviously, but he wanted to

1022
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 2: get out of there. It's it's a bad, bad scene.

1023
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 4: And it was like just something said, It's like that's

1024
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 4: a fluke injury. I get it. The guy's driving in

1025
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 4: through the lane and bumping knees and the leg buckles

1026
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 4: and now it's out for the season. But like they

1027
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,720
Speaker 4: also put a lot on his shoulders when they treated

1028
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 4: Luka Doncic, and he was playing heavy minutes for a

1029
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 4: guy getting up there in especially the way he plays

1030
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 4: being a smaller guy. Like I'm not saying it's like, oh,

1031
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 4: you should have seen this coming, but like that's how

1032
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 4: unfortunately these injuries can occur. Right, It's like you're putting

1033
00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,760
Speaker 4: this guy through the ringer here. He's playing forty forty

1034
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 4: plus minutes a game a lot of these and having

1035
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 4: to do a lot of the heavy lifting with the

1036
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 4: noad portion as well, only playing like a half a

1037
00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 4: game for the Dallas Mattericks. So really really bad stuff.

1038
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 4: And now the Dallas Mavericks fans have to even pay

1039
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,359
Speaker 4: more for season tickets, which I'm sure will come up

1040
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 4: on Friday's Worst of the Week.

1041
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think isn't a d I think all their

1042
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,160
Speaker 3: big guys are supposed to be reevaluated like today. Yeah,

1043
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 3: like we're supposed to get information on all these guys today.

1044
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 3: So I wonder if the Kyrie injury has an effect

1045
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 3: on Anthony Davis coming back, right, Like why to make

1046
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 3: the play in is why? And you know too he

1047
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 3: was trying to re energize the city, he said before

1048
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,840
Speaker 3: he went down with his injury. So I don't know,

1049
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 3: just bad stuff. Another team, I would say, you can't

1050
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 3: rule out the Lakers going after Kevin Durant.

1051
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 2: Oh god, you can.

1052
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 3: They've got Austin Reeves, they got Dalton connected, they still

1053
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 3: got all their picks.

1054
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 4: Now. Interesting, interesting, and I mean that fits your your windows,

1055
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:53,520
Speaker 4: so to speak. If Lebrono's still at this level, it's like, hey,

1056
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,439
Speaker 4: we're going for it now and we have Luca. Yeah, yeah,

1057
00:49:56,520 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 4: oh my god, I'm sure fans will love that if

1058
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,319
Speaker 4: that happens. Well, let's hear from you out there in

1059
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 4: the stream team podcast listeners, your your best Kevin Durant

1060
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 4: trade destinations, maybe some teams that we've overlooked that you

1061
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 4: could see in play. And I guess a part of

1062
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 4: this too. I think Sham's in his reporting said like

1063
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 4: the idea that they'll want to try and get him

1064
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 4: to a potential contender, right, Kevin Durant.

1065
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,399
Speaker 3: I think that's a Jimmy Butler situation right where it's

1066
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 3: like he's gonna want an extension, extend team and he's

1067
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 3: not signing an extension with the Chicago Bulls. Sure instance,

1068
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 3: you know, sure he wants to try and win another title.

1069
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 4: To go to a team that has a chance to

1070
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 4: obviously compete.

1071
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good point and it gets them the

1072
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 2: most back most. Quite often, that's the team that's gonna

1073
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 2: want to try and win a championship with Kevin Durant

1074
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 2: is going to give up the most. So yeah, it's

1075
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 2: good for every side.

1076
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:52,800
Speaker 4: Let's get to pick him game tonight quickly, Tass, you

1077
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,520
Speaker 4: got a victory. I backed with you. We got the

1078
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 4: Blazers winning last night.

1079
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, you said you didn't want to back me because

1080
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 2: I stunk in February, and I said.

1081
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 4: You know what, the Blazers are just a better team

1082
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:07,879
Speaker 4: than the Philadelphia seventy six ers. Philadelphia seventy stinkers past

1083
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 4: calls them from the can.

1084
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 2: Yes, I do. Where we're going tonight, We're going to

1085
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,720
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia. Now we're going to the New York Knicks

1086
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 2: hosting the Golden State Wars. They continue their trip going

1087
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 2: into New York. It's on TNT. Knicks are favored by

1088
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 2: four and a half. Because the Warriors are on a

1089
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,879
Speaker 2: back to back. I suppose that should be the big

1090
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 2: part of it. We'll see if Jimmy Butler does suit up.

1091
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 2: So we just talked about just sat out against those

1092
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 2: Philadelphia seventy stinkers because of his back spasms. Trey and

1093
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 2: I think that the Knicks will cover against Golden State,

1094
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 2: got to win by five or more. Esh and Skeets

1095
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 2: are taking the Warriors whiting the Warriors.

1096
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:53,279
Speaker 4: Skeets, Uh, yeah, I'm expecting. I guess well, Steph Curry

1097
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 4: and Madison Square Garden always excited for that show. Jimmy, yeah,

1098
00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,360
Speaker 4: maybe he's like, oh, tnt oh New York City, Okay,

1099
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:02,400
Speaker 4: I'll bring my best game. There's that. The other part

1100
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 4: of the equation is the Knicks played a lot of

1101
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,839
Speaker 4: close games over the last little bit here, the last

1102
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 4: three these they're always close, so like Nicks could win this,

1103
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 4: but I think it could be within you know, four points,

1104
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 4: three points, two points. So that's why I'm sort of

1105
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,800
Speaker 4: thinking the Warriors cover. That's my reasoning.

1106
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,839
Speaker 2: It's good reasoning, Thank you. I was thinking the same thing.

1107
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 2: It very well could happen. I don't know why I

1108
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 2: took the New York in all, honestly, honestly, because, yeah,

1109
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 2: they play close games. That being said, Jimmy is very

1110
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:39,120
Speaker 2: very important to this team, so I wonder if he

1111
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:39,720
Speaker 2: plays tonight.

1112
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, we'll call it there. I do want

1113
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 4: to remind everyone, got a little save the date for you.

1114
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,880

1115
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 4: here for the second round of March Madness, because I

1116
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 4: believe Atlanta hosting some of those games. In the second weekend,

1117
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 4: We're gonna be doing a live show slash pizza party.

1134
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 4: to do one here around the March Madness. You know,

1135
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,040
