1
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: Hi, doctor. Have you ever seen in eclipse?

2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 2: Oh?

3
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have seen many. You know, if you stare

4
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: at it head on, it'll burn your eyes out.

5
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 3: Well, it's not best to stare at it the sun

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,240
Speaker 3: during a eclipse.

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: But it's hard not to. I once took a pair

8
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: of binoculars and stared at the sun for over an hour.

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: Why would you do that, curiosity, I guess. Good morning,

10

22
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: tackle a few of the key storylines to watch for

23
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: as we hit the final week of the regular season

24
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: and we're gonna hit the beach to answer some of

25
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: your questions that you guys have sent in. So lots

26
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: to talk about here, but let's dig into the NCAA

27
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 1: Championship game a little bit. The Huskies won their second

28
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 1: straight national title last night. Seventy five to sixty was

29
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: the final score. Six point Yukon halftime lead gru to

30
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: what like ten or eleven less than five minutes into

31
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: the second half, it ballooned even more. They held on

32
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: and just dominated once again here in the tournament scoring

33
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: margin the average in six tournament wins twenty three point

34
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: three points for Yukon. It was like twenty last year

35
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: when they won the title. What'd you think of the

36
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: game here in the Huskies going back to back, Yeah,

37
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: these Huskies.

38
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 3: Are pretty good. A lot of dogs and you mentioned it.

39
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 3: They had a great tournament run last year, dominated the tournament,

40
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 3: lost three guys to the NBA, and then we're better

41
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 3: this season. That's pretty impressive. Jesus felt very similar to

42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: the women's championship game, where one team, in this case Perdue,

43
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 3: coming from the Midwest, maybe has the best player in

44
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: Zach Edy. He came out, had a huge hot start,

45
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 3: and then we saw the better team just took over

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 3: for the rest of the game. Thought good stuff from Clinging.

47
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 3: I liked watching those two guys go up against each other.

48
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 3: I thought he did a pretty good job of also

49
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 3: being big, getting knocked around a couple of times, but

50
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 3: stay in arms, straight up verticality Roy Hibbert mode. Fun

51
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 3: to watch for about three quarters of the game, and

52
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 3: then at the end you're like, there's no way Perdue

53
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 3: is getting back into this if they're gonna take seven

54
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: or eight three point attempts the whole night.

55
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they only attempted one three pointer in like the

56
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: first seventeen minutes ago. Yeah, I know was the strategy

57
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 1: from coach Hurler, and you kind of was like, we're

58
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: not sending help on Zach Edy. We got a giant dude. Dude,

59
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: we'll see if we can slow him.

60
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 3: Now.

61
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 1: Edie was cooking early, but the plan worked out perfectly.

62
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: Just try and take away one of the best three

63
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: point shooting teams in the country there and just limit

64
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: their shot attempts and we'll live with Edie inside. And

65
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: we got a better team. And yeah, it was sort

66
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: of similar to South Carolina there in the women's championship

67
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: game taking down Caitlin Clark, sort of that you know,

68
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: the one woman show there, but they had the better

69
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,119
Speaker 1: team and going back to back just like they did.

70
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: Hurley's a math major. I guess just let them go

71
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 2: two for two for two. And it did suck coming

72
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: out of half because the first half was eventful in

73
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 2: a way where Hurley was going up to the referee,

74
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: was a little upset about a screen that Edie set.

75
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 2: Edie had a word for him, then Hurley had a

76
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: word for him, so it wasn't It was pretty fun.

77
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 2: But then in the second half when Edy missed that

78
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 2: first layup with his left hand, looked like a pretty

79
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: easy one for him. You miss that one, then Yukon

80
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: hits that three the other way, it's all of a sudden,

81
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: it's nine. Edie does miss another layup. They were fighting.

82
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: Perdue is defa fighting and he was awesome. D was awesome,

83
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: thirty seven points. It was cool to watch him down

84
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: there against Klingon Samson. Johnson was pretty good as well.

85
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 2: To fight die, But.

86
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: What are you gonna do.

87
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: You gotta hit some threes, per do you hit one?

88
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: It's not enough enough, not enough for a comeback.

89
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: What do you think about zach EDI's chances at the

90
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: next level here, Like, I mean, there's a huge discourse

91
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: right like this guy he'll be totally fine. Oh, he'll

92
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: be a bus Like watch people get exposed like left

93
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: and right, you know, because of his size and maybe

94
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: how slowly is Do you have an opinion on this

95
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: draft experts, But what do you think?

96
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 3: Well, I think Edie's at least gonna make it to

97
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 3: the NBA and he'll be a reserve big man, Like

98
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,119
Speaker 3: he'll be able to score off the bench playing against

99
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 3: other bench guys like boban has had a ten year

100
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 3: NBA career, Greg Monroe had a ten year NBA career,

101
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 3: And these are guys who don't shoot outside of five

102
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,280
Speaker 3: feet and really don't bring anything else on the defensive end.

103
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 3: Because you saw, I guess it was probably at the

104
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 3: end of the first half. It's it's hard to like

105
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: adjust your brain to not talking about quarters. Yeah, I know,

106
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 3: like I was gonna say this was the second quarter,

107
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 3: but it was the second half of the first half

108
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 3: when Samson Slamson Johnson was in. They got two alley

109
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 3: oops for him right away by putting Edie in action

110
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 3: and just throwing the ball over his head. Yeah, that's

111
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: gonna be the problem facing up against NBA athletes, And

112
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 3: that guy was a reserve big for this Yukon team.

113
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 3: I think he'll be able to at least make it

114
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 3: to the league and get some chances, and he'll probably

115
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: have some hilarious games where he goes for twenty five

116
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: points on twelve of thirteen shooting something like that, But like,

117
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 3: long term, he's not going to be a playoff player.

118
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: I don't think you agree with that.

119
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and offenses are going to expose him, Yeah, just

120
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 2: because Greg Monroe was at a good time to play

121
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 2: in the NBA where you weren't shooting as many threes.

122
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: Now teams will expose his is agilly, really, but he

123
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 2: obviously has offensive ability, so.

124
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,480
Speaker 1: He's improved over his colature career. I like that he's

125
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 1: got a bit of an few attitude to him. He

126
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: sort of leans into like being the villain or like

127
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 1: the big bully or whatever.

128
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: He wasn't taking in from Hurley, who was who wasn't

129
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: Everybody was saying Hurley went after eight. He was actually

130
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: going after the referee. But Hurley's got a plan. He

131
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: wants a three peat. As he said after the game,

132
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 2: the coach is ready and players love him obviously. Tree

133
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: Young even tweeted Hurley is going to be considered one

134
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 2: of the best to ever do it when his career

135
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 2: is over. So I guess it's true. I mean they're very, very,

136
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 2: very good. They've won six championships.

137
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: N Yeah, that's right. Push them past Duke who has five.

138
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: The Huskies are tied with North Carolina with six, and

139
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: then UCLA and Kentucky only have more, Ucla with eleven,

140
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: Kentucky with eight. But can they go back to back

141
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 1: to back which has not been done since John Woodin's

142
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: UCLA teams because Duke in the nineties went out I

143
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: think in that first weekend, and then Florida after their

144
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: back to backs, not even sure they made the tournament

145
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: or something like that. So we'll see here.

146
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 3: It'll be similar for Yukon because that Florida team lost

147
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of guys to the NBA, including their

148
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 3: top three guys and Noah Horford and Corey Brewer at

149
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 3: the time. And I think the same thing is going

150
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 3: to happen for Yukon, right Like Klingen is going to

151
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 3: the league. He'll be a top fifteen pick. I think

152
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 3: he's going to be a better pro than Edie Will

153
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 3: He's I don't know. I mess like Ceiling Mitchell Robinson.

154
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 3: You know it plays great defense, offensive rebounds, can finish

155
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 3: lobs inside, and who knows what else you're getting. Stefan

156
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 3: Castle's going to the NBA as well. Their freshman guard.

157
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: He looked all right. I thought too. He definitely looks

158
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: like an NBA player. And then I think they've got

159
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 3: seniors otherwise in Newton, Caravan and Spencer. I don't know

160
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 3: if those guys are all seniors, but I don't know

161
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 3: if they're coming back, So it'll be a different team

162
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 3: for Yukon going forward. But it wasn't a problem this year,

163
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: so who knows. You start winning, you just keep getting

164
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 3: better and better recruits.

165
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: Crazy All right, Well, let's move off of the championship game.

166
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: There got a little coaching update from Charlotte. This is

167
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: by way of Woes. The Charlotte Hornets have been granted

168
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: permission to interview Lindsay Harding, the coach of the G

169
00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: League Stockton Kings, for Charlotte's head coaching job. If Harding

170
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: is hired, she would become the first woman to be

171
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: named head coach of an NBA team. So you can

172
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: add Harding's name to a long list of other coaches

173
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: getting a look here in Charlotte. We've already went over

174
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: like a lot of the assistant coaches. I think there's

175
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: even more being added here. But any thoughts on Lindsay Harding,

176
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: who just was named the G League Coach of the

177
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: Year leading that team to do a really good regular

178
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:21,559
Speaker 1: season record.

179
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: We hear this rumor every year that a woman finally

180
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: might be the first head coach of an NBA team,

181
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 2: But I think that there's a chance that she actually

182
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 2: becomes the first to be a head coach because a

183
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: couple months ago was kind of went under the radar

184
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: of Mitch Kupchek stepped aside as the leader of the

185
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: Hornet's front office, and a young man took over Jeff Peterson.

186
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 2: He's thirty five. Harding is only thirty nine, and I

187
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 2: think this could be a Hornet's mentality. Both of them

188
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 2: are going to be in there for a long time

189
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,439
Speaker 2: to try and turn this thing around. Because I want

190
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 2: her to get the job, but it's a tough job

191
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 2: because the hornet stink, and it's going to be it's

192
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: gonna be difficult for her just to turn that thing

193
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 2: around as it is for Peterson. So maybe he has

194
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 2: this vision for Harding to come in and take over,

195
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 2: because she's a damn good coach. Not that I know

196
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: of her a lot, but what she's done as assistant

197
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: with the Sacramento Kings for several years. She was a

198
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 2: player developer with the seventy six ers. She's the head

199
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: coach of the Mexican women's national team, the South su

200
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 2: Dan women's national team. She does a lot along with

201
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 2: being the head coach of the Gelague Stockton Kings.

202
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: Always fun and she's a hell of a player back

203
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: in college and then WNBA number one pick, So there's

204
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: maybe that's some respect there that we talked about with

205
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: just you know NBA guys that were like now become

206
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: head coaches, you have just that built in respect. But

207
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: it'd be pretty cool if she got this. For the

208
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 1: longest time, we thought it would be Becking, Becky Hammond,

209
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: excuse me. And then she goes to the Aces and

210
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: just wins championships there. Not to say it still couldn't happen, obviously,

211
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: her being the first, but maybe Lindsay Harding will someone's

212
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: gonna do it. It's just like it's who's going to

213
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 1: be number one, And we'll see how she interviews and

214
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 1: what they think her, because again it's a long list,

215
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: but a lot of the names we always see. You're

216
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: Kevin Young's and you're Charles Lee's and I don't know,

217
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: we talked about Jordi Fernandez and sort of coming from

218
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: that Sacramento side of things too, But yeah, any thoughts

219
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: on this.

220
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 3: I hope she at least moves on to the second

221
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: round the interviews here, and it's not just like a

222
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 3: pr thing to get us talking about the Charlotte Hornets

223
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 3: in a positive light considering they've had a pretty rough

224
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: run the past couple of seasons here and you guys

225
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 3: mentioned it. The resume is solid G League Coach of

226
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 3: the Year, best record in the G League Coaches national teams.

227
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 3: Was a player development coach. If you look at former

228
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 3: G League Coaches of the Year Quinn Snyder, Chris Finch,

229
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 3: Nick Nurse, you can find some real talent there. This

230
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 3: is a team, the Hornets, that needs a lot of

231
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 3: development going forward. So probably the smartest place for a

232
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 3: development like coach and Lindsey Harding. We will see what

233
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 3: what happens going forward, but very cool that she's at

234
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 3: least getting an opportunity.

235
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: And you're right, I mean, the Hornets aren't bad, and

236
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: they have been for a little bit here, but you know,

237
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: we touched on it when this news broke that they

238
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: were moving off of Steve Clifford, Like, if Lameillo Bull

239
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: is healthy, that's a hell of a player right now.

240
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: We were very impressed with what we saw from Brandon Miller.

241
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 1: He looks like a building block, you know. Do you

242
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: have Mark Williams as sort of a center and hope

243
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 1: that he can be their big guy. I mean there's

244
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: some there's something there at least to build off of,

245
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: and then more picks, so we'll see who gets this,

246
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: doub it's sort of cool to see her name included

247
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: and look, man or a woman, anyone who knows the

248
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: game and communicates effectively can be a damn good head coach.

249
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 1: And it's just a matter of time. Will who'd be

250
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: the first female to get this one of these you know,

251
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: elusive NBA jobs? Maybe her? Maybe her? All right, let's

252
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: let's go big picture here. The NBA regular season. We're

253
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: in the final week. Still plenty to play for, though,

254
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: when you're looking at who's in the play in tournament,

255
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: who's got what seedings? Now, you guys did a good

256
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,719
Speaker 1: job yesterday on Monday's NBA Weekend Winners and Losers, he

257
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: went over a lot of like, well, this team is here,

258
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: and this team has tiebreakers, and you can do your

259
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: head in with all that. But I thought it'd be

260
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: fun to tackle some sort of big storylines here into

261
00:11:57,920 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: the final week. Some of these coming by way of

262
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 1: our friends at ESPN. This first one, what team has

263
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: the most at stake in the final week of the season.

264
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: I feel like you can pick like six or seven

265
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,599
Speaker 1: teams here, but you have one that jumps out to you.

266
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, especial because the standings are tight. Yeah, but I'm

267
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 2: looking at the New Orleans Pelicans because things can get

268
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 2: a little bleak for the Pelicans because they look bright.

269
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 2: We thought they were going to match up with the

270
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 2: Clippers in the first round four or five, no problem. Well,

271
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 2: now they're in a play in position. We saw them

272
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 2: last year in the play and they lost to the

273
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City Thunder. We saw them in an in season tournament,

274
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,839
Speaker 2: if you want to call those play in games. They

275
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 2: lost their They missed Brandon Ingram a lot, both for

276
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 2: their offense and good starts. They don't get out to

277
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 2: great starts. They are three and nineteen when trailing at

278
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 2: halftime owen seven since the All Star break. They need

279
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 2: a guy to kick things up. They got a guy

280
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 2: who can finish. Hision looks good. He looked great the

281
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 2: other day. He was awesome in the fourth quarter against

282
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 2: Phoenix Huns. He had three blocks in that quarter. When

283
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: he packed Kevin Durant, that was great. She blocked a

284
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 2: three point shot. But despite ending well, they get off

285
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: to bad starts. They they lost four straight before beating Phoenix,

286
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 2: and I worry about their schedule a little bit because

287
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 2: Brandon Ingram's not coming back tonight against Portland when they

288
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 2: should win. But then they play Sacramento, who they're four

289
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,359
Speaker 2: and zero against because Brandon Ingram was awesome, so Sacramento

290
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 2: probably has something to prove. The Warriors and then the

291
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 2: Lakers after that. I hope Ingram comes back to try

292
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: and boost them a little bit. That's a big problem.

293
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: Where they're in the standings is a problem, and how

294
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: they get off to bad starts is a problem. Things

295
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,839
Speaker 2: looked good for New Orleans. It was just mirror. This

296
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: is a few weeks ago. You know, they started off

297
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 2: pretty well without Brandon Ingram. They got off to a

298
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 2: winning streak. But they miss him. They miss him a lot,

299
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 2: and he is supposed to come back, but I don't

300
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 2: know how healthy he's going to be because it ain't.

301
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: It ain't as soon come back. It ain't. He's been

302
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 2: practicing for a long time. Come back, it's gonna be

303
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 2: late late.

304
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one. Pelicans, you got another team.

305
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 3: And I did see Brandon Ingram taking some warm up shots,

306
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 3: so that's encouraging. But yeah, they absolutely needed him back.

307
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 3: Losing four straight at home, that's that's ugly stuff. But

308
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 3: big time win against the Sun And like you said,

309
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: Zion was awesome. He was in that game. He has

310
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 3: been so good the second half of the season. For me,

311
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: it's on the other side. Cleveland, I think has a

312
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 3: lot to lose this last week of the season. They've

313
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 3: lost three straight. They're only two games up on the

314
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 3: seventh seed. Since the All Star break, they're ten and

315
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 3: sixteen with the twentieth ranked offense in the league. Twenty

316
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 3: fourth defense and they're just twenty third in net rating.

317
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 3: They've been a bottom ten team for like a month

318
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 3: and a half here, and dropping in back to the

319
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 3: play in that's a step back for this team. They

320
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 3: already got to a play in at one point. They

321
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 3: made it to the actual playoffs last year, which was

322
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 3: a disappointing end of the season for them. So going

323
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 3: back into the play in when you're not playing well,

324
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 3: that would be terrible. Because Donovan Mitchell is set to

325
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 3: become a free agent after the twenty twenty five season.

326
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 3: Eric Pinkus at bleacher Report reported reported last week that

327
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: the buzz in NBA circles suggests that, barring a run

328
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 3: to the NBA Finals excuse me, Donovan Mitchell will decline

329
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 3: an extension and look elsewhere, and the Cads are more

330
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 3: likely than not to move him well before he can

331
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,080
Speaker 3: leave outright as a free agent. So it feels like

332
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: a big week for this season for the Calves and

333
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 3: then for their future going forward as well. The good

334
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 3: stuff they've got the Grizzlies, the Pacers, and the Hornets

335
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 3: all at home this week, so favorable conditions for Cleveland.

336
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 3: But Mitchell hasn't been the same since coming back from

337
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 3: PRP and nose injuries. They've got Dean Wade out, which

338
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 3: is like a surprising lynchpin of a player for them.

339
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: So I think this week is big time for Cleveland

340
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 3: and they have not looked good for basically two months here,

341
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 3: so a lot to play for.

342
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: I love that one. I'll go with the team just

343
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: ahead of them in the East standings. You guys talked

344
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: about them a lot yesterday, so I'll keep it quick.

345
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: But the Bucks, I mean, they're playing their worst basketball

346
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 1: of their season at this point. They got a lot

347
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: of steak here when you consider the big move for

348
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard in the off season, firing their coach, bringing

349
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: in Duck Rivers, who now has a losing record. They've

350
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: lost four straight to some brutal teams, the Raptors, the Grizzlies,

351
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: the Wizards, and the only reason they're really in second place,

352
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: we're honest, is because the Kazas sucks in se the

353
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: All Star break two. Otherwise, if they'd been playing, you know,

354
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: above five hundred, playing like they had been, they would

355
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: have jumped them and would have had the number two seed.

356
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, you got Yannis saying it's almost like we're

357
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: going through the motions. We got to find our joy back.

358
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: He went on a big long thing about like we

359
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: need you know, Pat Conington doing these celebrations and ge

360
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: crowd are doing these and I gotta scream after dunks

361
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: like they they've just lost it again. You talked about

362
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: it a lot on yesterday's show, so we don't need

363
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: to go over a great detail. But it's like when

364
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: let's go here and they play the Celtics tonight, they

365
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: play the Thunder and then they got two against the

366
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: Magic who are right behind them in the standings. So

367
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: what looked like a like an absolute lock as at

368
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 1: least a second or third seed a couple weeks ago

369
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: for the Bucks in the East, you know, knowing they

370
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: weren't going to catch the Celtics, but we thought they'd

371
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: be two or three. It get way worse than that

372
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 1: here if they continue this losing streak. So there's a

373
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: lot riding on this. And like Dave mcmanhamon said in

374
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: that article, if the Bucks reached the conference finals and

375
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: come up short against like this powerhouse Celtics team, disappointing season,

376
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: but not a disaster. If they like get bounced in

377
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 1: the first round, you know, because they've lost home court

378
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: or whatever, no matter who they play. That's an absolute disaster.

379
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: With the new coach coming in and all that.

380
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 3: Like the new new coach, the new new coach he

381
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: ye lost the first round or last year and fired

382
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 3: to coach.

383
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 1: Yeah right, so two seasons may stakes are high here

384
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: for the Bucks. But all three of those teams I

385
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,439
Speaker 1: think fit the bill here at Pelicans, Cavs, and Bucks.

386
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 3: Imagine the Bucks dropped at three and the Pacers stay

387
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 3: in six. Pacers have played the Bucks well, and there's

388
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 3: been some drama between these teams. That could be a

389
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 3: spicy first round matchup.

390
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 1: Absolutely all right, Moving on, you know we talked about

391
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 1: the Celtics there slipped them in just dominating, gonna win

392
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: sixty five games here? Probably which East team should the

393
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: Celtics fear the most? If any you had to pick,

394
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: and you know they would get to select who they

395
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: didn't want to play. Let's say, if they were being honest,

396
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,959
Speaker 1: who do you think they would pick tass or who

397
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: would you pick for them?

398
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,880
Speaker 2: It's got to be the Sick because yes, they're gonna

399
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 2: win sixty five games. The second best team in the

400
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: East probably won't even reach fifty wins. That is kind

401
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 2: of absurd when you think about it. But the reason

402
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 2: why the Sixers didn't reach fifty wins is because Joel

403
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 2: Embid was hurt and they were on a great pace

404
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: with him and Tyrese Maxy. They are twenty eight and seven.

405
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 2: That's like a sixty six win pace if they played

406
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 2: the entire season together. That's better than the Celtics. I

407
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 2: think this team is better than the Celtics, but we

408
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 2: need Joel Embiid back healthy. Of course, he's played three

409
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 2: games during it. He said, I don't feel great. I

410
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 2: don't feel like I'm totally back. So he just needs

411
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 2: to play more. Obviously, he looked great. He's freaking Joel Embiid.

412
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 2: He's averaged twenty seven points. So but I think it's

413
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 2: better for him to play in the play in and

414
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 2: just get an extra game. I really do think every

415
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 2: game matters for this guy. They only have three games left.

416
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 2: If he gets another one or two because the play

417
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: I think that matters. I think he's got a good

418
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: supporting cast that's ready to fight. You know, a lowry

419
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 2: but toom, those kind of guys are ready to play

420
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 2: defense around Maxi and Embiid, so I would fear if

421
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,719
Speaker 2: there's anybody to fear. I don't think. I don't think

422
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 2: it's the heat. I just don't think the heat. No,

423
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 2: I'm not buying it the Beam twice, yeah right, yeah, yeah.

424
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 2: They will be mad that they gave up. I mean

425
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 2: they somehow beat that. It was a three to zero

426
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: lead last year. Anyway, forget about that. I'm buying sick.

427
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 2: I'm buying the Sixers to some degree, just because Embiid

428
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 2: is Joel Embiid.

429
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: It makes sense. Yeah, you go with the Sixers or

430
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: can you talk yourself into a Heat or another team

431
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: that you like how they match up against.

432
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 3: I mean, realistically, Boston should walk in as the Beantown

433
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 3: big Dogs twenty four and eight against other East postseason

434
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 3: teams this season. Playoff status dot Com gives them a

435
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 3: seventy one percent chance of making the finals. In the West,

436
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 3: the Timberwolves have a twenty five percent chance, the Nuggets

437
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 3: have a twenty four percent chance, and the thunder have

438
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 3: a twenty one percent chance. That doesn't even add up

439
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 3: to a seventy one percent chance. They should walk to

440
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 3: the finals realistically. But I actually do think it's the Bucks.

441
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 3: That would give Boston the most trouble. They out shut

442
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 3: in their matchups this season. The Bucks have outshot Boston

443
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 3: fifty one to forty five percent from the field forty

444
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 3: three to thirty eight percent from three. If you can

445
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 3: beat the Celtics from three, that gives you a chance.

446
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 3: And then, despite everything we said about the Bucks, their

447
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 3: starters this season are still a plus fifteen points per

448
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 3: one hundred possessions this season. Obviously Chris Middleton has missed

449
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 3: a lot of time, but if you look at the

450
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 3: Forge starters without Middleton, plus twelve points per one hundred possessions.

451
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 3: So you're telling me that Luke Cornette, Peyton Pritchard and

452
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 3: Sam Howser are going to be the guys to beat

453
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 3: the Bucks bench. Maybe or maybe it'll be a complete

454
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 3: toss up. I think the Bucks are still the scariest

455
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 3: team for Boston, but Milwaukee is not a team that

456
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 3: I'm very scared enough at all right now. But they

457
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 3: have had some success and obviously their starting lineup is

458
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 3: still good.

459
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 1: All right, Well, just keep this interesting. I'll take the

460
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 1: heat because of just history, that's the only reason the

461
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 1: Celtics have played Miami in three of the past. For

462
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: four postseasons they were eliminated twice and then the other

463
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 1: one was you know, they survived the games, So like,

464
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: you know, that's a bit of a toss up as well,

465
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: and you go, well, that's okay. The have Drew Holliday. Now,

466
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: well I remember Jimmy Butler averaging like thirty eight points

467
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: per game against drewe Holiday when he was on the

468
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: Bucks last postseason, So there's may be that as well.

469
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 1: He likes that matchup. I just yeah, I know we

470
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: want to every year. Nah, there's no way Miami can

471
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: do it again, right, can't turn it on again? Huh No,

472
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 1: They've looked horrible. They're the zombies man that he culture

473
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: whatever reason, it's so stupid, but they just go to

474
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: another level Jimmy does. And then it's like some random

475
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: guy or two that just can't miss a three for

476
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: five or six games.

477
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 3: So who's gonna be Patty Mills. It's gonna be Patty.

478
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, Patty Mills. Yeah, Patty Mills's Kevin Love Yeah, yeah, exactly.

479
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: So I think yours are the more realistic ones. But

480
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: just for funnel throw Miami in, but you know they should.

481
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: They should literally walk to the to the finals. They

482
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: just look clearly like the better team. Joel Embiids is

483
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 1: a huge wildcard if he can play at an MVP level. Yeah,

484
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 1: and he's struggled to do that. If we're being honest

485
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: in previous postseasons for a good stretch, you know, and

486
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: in were here there, or sickness or Marcusolitis or whatever

487
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 1: you know hit him in the postseason. He's the difference maker.

488
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: So probably it's the Sixers.

489
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 2: Maybe it's good that he missed two months in the

490
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 2: regular season, goes he'll be healthy for the playoffs. It

491
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: just feels like a really long time that he's been out.

492
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 2: The East is just really weird to look up and

493
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 2: down at the Bucks forty seven wins in the second seed,

494
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: and the Heat are forty three wins in the eighth seed.

495
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 2: There's just a bunch of teams that are really close together.

496
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: And I like, I like betting on the Heat. Hero

497
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: is back. That helps, But Dunk Duncan Robinson has been

498
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,959
Speaker 2: cold recently. That's not like him. So I don't know,

499
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 2: I don't know who to buy it. I think the

500
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 2: play in and all that is entertaining, more entertaining than

501
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 2: I expect. It to be in the East. Yeah, because

502
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 2: the West is awesome. Yeah, but the Bulls Hawks that

503
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 2: that's totally.

504
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: Literally the only three people on Earth that probably did so.

505
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

506
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 3: Everybody else is like, you should have to be five

507
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 3: hundred to be in.

508
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 1: The play, and they're probably right.

509
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 3: It's going to be a classic just like last Yet,

510
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,360
Speaker 3: I thought somebody might pick the Knicks.

511
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 1: For this, you know, this question for a team that

512
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: maybe the Celtics would be like, Okay, you know they

513
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: have an identity they do. You know, with Ogre it

514
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 1: feels like they never lose for the most part with

515
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: him and then the difference maker he is defensively, but

516
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: maybe maybe the Randall being pulled out of the equation

517
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: changes things. But I'm sure there are people in the

518
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: in the stream team right now saying the New York next,

519
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 1: Why not them? Let's jump to the West here. Final

520
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: question when it comes to sort of the bigger storylines

521
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 1: over the final week here, which of the West top

522
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: seeds should be most concerned about its potential first round matchup.

523
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 1: So you're looking at the top of the West, of

524
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 1: those whatever four or five teams, do you see one

525
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: of them going we could be ripe for an upset

526
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: against So and so.

527
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,959
Speaker 2: I think the Timberwolves, as Tray was going through, you

528
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 2: know who they are, what they are, what they could

529
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 2: become here. They don't want to see a few teams,

530
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 2: the big the big teams, like they don't play the Pelicans,

531
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 2: although I think they're a little bit concerned with the

532
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 2: Pelicans and they don't want to see the Phoenix Suns. Actually,

533
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 2: I know that sounds a little crazy, but they've played

534
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 2: them twice and Phoenix has taken them out big time.

535
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 2: They beat them the first time by eighteen points, and

536
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 2: that was only because of garbage time. It was like

537
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 2: a twenty plus point loss. And then Friday just now

538
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 2: they beat him by ten points, which was also done

539
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 2: in garbage time. I don't know. Nurkic plays Gobert pretty well.

540
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 2: He likes to get after Booker and Bial. They outplay

541
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 2: Minnesota's backcourt of Edwards and Conley, which sounds a little crazy,

542
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 2: but both guys they defend from the jump. Bradley Beal

543
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 2: just asn't decide the point guard Bial He's been pretty

544
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: damn good. He's shooting fifty three percent from three in

545
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 2: his last ten games. I know it sounds nuts, but

546
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 2: averaging seven assists as well. They're just kind of peaking

547
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 2: at the right time. I started doing the Kevin Durant

548
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 2: in Brooklyn math. How many games did those guys play

549
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 2: together before they went to the second round and his

550
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: toe stepped on the line. They could have done it

551
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: against the Bucks. They should have beat the Bucks of

552
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 2: the year that the Bucks won anyway, that game watching

553
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 2: on Friday, Pelicans, excuse me, sorry, Sons and Wolves, this

554
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 2: was a sheolhacking. It really was a slacking. It was

555
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 2: a fifteen to oh lead at the beginning. Minnesota's just

556
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 2: kept turning it over and turning it over and they

557
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 2: couldn't hit a freaking shot. I don't know. Phoenix gets

558
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 2: after it. They beat them. Now they need Cat back.

559
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: They need Cat in that matchup because Cat can hurt him. Yeah,

560
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 2: and they do play one more time to end the season,

561
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 2: so maybe that'll help. But I don't know. It's the

562
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 2: Timberwolves have the one team even over Okay, see that.

563
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 2: I'm just just a little worried about going to the postseason.

564
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: Okay, Wolves, maybe a little worried about Sons. Good news

565
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: with Kat though, sounds like he's at least going to

566
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: be back here in theory by the end of the

567
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: regular season, so they should have him for the postseason.

568
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: He's practicing, he's practicing. I guess the Hawks are getting

569
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: Trey Young in Theory two potentially potentially from the finger injury.

570
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: That'll juice up that nine to ten match.

571
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 3: Up for suretimes. Yeah, maybe the Celtics should fear the

572
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 3: Hawks since they beat him twice.

573
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: That's possible. Do you have another, you know, elite team

574
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: in the West that could be scared of a potential

575
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: first round matchup.

576
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 3: I think Phoenix in general is the scariest team on

577
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 3: the lower half of the bracket, just because it feels

578
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 3: like their best game, when they play their best game,

579
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 3: can really beat anybody. And they do have Nurkic, who

580
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,919
Speaker 3: like is a weird player and not a guy that

581
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 3: I'm like a huge fan of, but he loves playing

582
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 3: against Jokich like he loves playing against Go Bear. He

583
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 3: will fill out of all those games, but he'll give

584
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 3: you a good thirty five minutes before he gets to

585
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 3: his sixth file. So I do think that they're the

586
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 3: scariest in the second half. That being said, I think

587
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 3: if any team in the top three is looking at

588
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 3: the schedule, they don't want to see the Lakers. The

589
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: thundered out because LA is three to one against OKAC

590
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 3: this season. They shot fifty percent from the field across

591
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 3: four matchups and forty one percent from three. We've talked

592
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 3: a lot about how the Thunder struggling teams with size,

593
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 3: and it's not just like offensive rebounding for the Lakers

594
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 3: of the four teams in the play and I think

595
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 3: the Lakers grabbed the fewest offensive rebounds of anybody against OKC.

596
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 3: But they got big guys at the three, four and

597
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 3: five position, and they know how to play. They're a

598
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 3: very experienced team with some of the title guys there

599
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 3: from the bubble season and of course Lebron and AD.

600
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 3: So I think that's probably the scariest matchup OKA se

601
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 3: versus the Lakers, But I don't know, I mean, does

602
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 3: it happen, We'll see, Yeah, it didn't play.

603
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. To illustrate the playoff experience difference if it was

604
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: Thunder Lakers, Lebron has two hundred and eighty two games

605
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,479
Speaker 1: of playoff experience. The Thunder have like just over one

606
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: hundred as an entire squad, and you know, even a

607
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: lot of that is not like their main, main, main guy,

608
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, that makes sense. Just how big and physical,

609
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 1: how well they've played them. I think even like to

610
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 1: some extent, our whole thing with the Thunder we keep

611
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: coming back to it is like, yes, maybe the size,

612
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 1: but also just you know that we are expecting them

613
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: to go really far right away, and that's really rare.

614
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: So another playoff experience team like the Warriors, maybe who's

615
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: Thunder have played really well against. But again that's a

616
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: team that just has so much playoff experience, so much

617
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: DNA of their big three, so you know, maybe that's

618
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: just a tough, a tough battle for them, but maybe

619
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: that's what they need too. They get sort of like

620
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 1: punched in the mouth right in that first round series

621
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: to really help their chances to go possibly far. Okay, see,

622
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 1: but I also had what you had trade it. Okay,

623
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: see Lakers, Jad, I think you have the Western Conference standing.

624
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: I know we didn't show you the East, but just

625
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,359
Speaker 1: like it is wild how tight everything is the top

626
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 1: three teams. It's looking like we might get clips MAVs

627
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 1: in four or five, so we're running that back and

628
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: then yeah, six through ten, not a whole lot of games,

629
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: separating them with basically what every team's got four games

630
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 1: I think remaining on schedule something like that, So it's

631
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: gonna be wild every night. This is gonna change.

632
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, the Lakers are the only team with three

633
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 2: games left night. I did go through the schedule because

634
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 2: we talked about it yesterday that there's no games obviously

635
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 2: with the NCAA Final. There's also no games on Saturday.

636
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 2: It's the rare day that they take it off so

637
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 2: they can have everybody play on Sunday. They can have

638
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: all games play on Sunday.

639
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: We have twenty eight teams playing tonight. Yeah, and then yeah,

640
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 1: and that's that final Sunday. I guess they all go

641
00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: all right.

642
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 3: The schedule is a weird it's weird weeks trying to

643
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 3: fit things in with like the championship games as well,

644
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:06,840

00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 1: So I was in iverson mode the other night watching

656
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: a game. I realized that I'm tired of hearing about

657
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: small ball fives? Can we have a large ball one?

658
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: Maybe Ben Simmons, John Cruck, Is Bradley been nice? Is

659
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: Bradley Beal a small ball one? How about the potential

660
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: French lineup of stretch three wem Bees? Would Ray Felton

661
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: be a round ball one? Can y'all just make up

662
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: some new positions of player types? That's from Andrew here

663
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: in Atlanta ps JD. I work at Tech. So if

666
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: tight down there on campus. Yeah.

667
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 4: I don't know how often I'm gonna be going down there,

668
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 4: but maybe every day.

669
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: Maybe now that I have a parking spot, Yeah, yeah

670
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: for sure. So okay, so new positions or player types?

671
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: Does anybody have anything here to help andrew out.

672
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: The John Cruck reference was great. I think it sort

673
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 2: of goes under the radar that manager Noble also had

674
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 2: a testicle removed. He had surgery to move his testicle.

675
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: People forget people forget spurs.

676
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: To a good job keeping everything. End of the radar,

677
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 2: but he did. Yeah, so positions. I just went with

678
00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 2: something that's a little bit more celebration, like a guy

679
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: who skips. All guys who skip, I think I think

680
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 2: that needs to be more of a celebration. There's five

681
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 2: guys I think that could be skippers. I don't really

682
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 2: have a great title for it. Tokay, honest, But Emmanuel

683
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 2: Quickly I love when he hits a three. He's a

684
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 2: great skipper. Terres Halliburton did it this season when he

685
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 2: hit his eight three, he started skipping.

686
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 3: That's just a great celebration.

687
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: Skip to my lou rayfer Austin should be on this team.

688
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: He was skipping with the ball.

689
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 2: He was a skipper. Other than that, I don't really

690
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 2: have guys who's I couldn't even complete a five. Does

691
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 2: Harden do it? I feel like he would, but I

692
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 2: don't think he does. Curry I think he would, but

693
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 2: also he said so many threes and he hasn't skipped

694
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 2: very weird. But what is hid behind that non skip?

695
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 2: What are you hiding? Man? So I just got three

696
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 2: but a skip position skip team skippy a peanut butter team.

697
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 3: I don't know kind of peanut butter boys.

698
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah you got anything here?

699
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 3: K Yeah, I got some big ball one wait, yeah,

700
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 3: paul one that could I would also call that a

701
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 3: big rig, a big player who like handles the ball

702
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 3: and drives a lot. So I'm thinking like Lebron Luca,

703
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 3: Paula Boncaro, like an oversized guy who is your point guard.

704
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: This guy's a big rig.

705
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 3: I got the big rig driving everything out there.

706
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: That's really good. They could like in arena drop like

707
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: the big horn. Yeah, oh that's cool.

708
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I actually like that for Paula Boncaro, big rig

709
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 3: Bonco to the Bibbs. Bibbs, that's on that one. How

710
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 3: about a politician, somebody who does a lot of dribble

Speaker 3: You can go. And then uh, somebody who is the

714
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,880

Speaker 1: Spoiler alert, I just watched it. Actually, I got it

772
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: in yesterday.

773
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 2: I can't wait to talk about it. This made me think,

774
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: who in the NBA world is trying to finish their

775
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 2: own story? Someone with the biggest chip on their shoulder,

776
00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 2: trying to prove something. Turn up love you guys. Awesome.

777
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,839
Speaker 2: A Meal from the Philippines.

778
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: Who's trying to finish the story like Cody Rhodes.

779
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, what kind of stories roads finishing?

780
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: So is he how much time to have? No?

781
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 2: I just I just want to know what A Meal

782
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,919
Speaker 2: is referring to Cody Rhads Is he done that type

783
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: of story?

784
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: Is the story? The story ending? Was him winning the championship?

785
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 2: His father, Yeah, the Lake Dusty, Yes, there's another son,

786
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 2: isn't it it's gold Dust? Oh?

787
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, he never won as great as he was

788
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: he never won the championship in the WWF. I guess

789
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: it was called by the Sign and then Cody was

790
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,320
Speaker 1: there in the WWE, but then left went to AW

791
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: basically started AW came back and so it's like this

792
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: idea of like can this guy he's just like he's

793
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: a white hot baby face too. He's basically like the

794
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: new version of John Cena or Hogan. He's this era

795
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: of that. Kids love him for the most part, people

796
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: love him as a good guy.

797
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 2: Is gonna be naked at the Golden Globes or at

798
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 2: the Oscars like.

799
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: Like John well Sina helped him out spoiler.

800
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 2: Yeah on Sunday because this was a two day event and.

801
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: The Undertaker helped him out and everybody was helping him

802
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: o U for me. But the NBA version, I mean,

803
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: I think it just has to be obviously elite players

804
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: that don't have a title yet. So there's a couple options.

805
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 1: I mean, Luca, I guess it's maybe a little still

806
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,879
Speaker 1: too early for Luca. Sure, sure, Tatum, I know he's

807
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: still quite young too, but think about how many times

808
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 1: he's gone to conference finals and even the finals and

809
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: then it's not going well right now as we talked about,

810
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 1: but like a guy like Damian Lillard, that would be

811
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: a finishing the story, though they were selling shirts right away.

812
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: That said, the story continues right after, so the story

813
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:22,240
Speaker 1: does continue in wrestling. But those are three that I

814
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: popped into my mind.

815
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: Absolutely and Tatum just like Cody Rhodes, not a lot

816
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:28,800
Speaker 3: of charisma if you ask.

817
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 2: Me, oh one.

818
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 3: But the only other guy I'm gonna throw into the

819
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: mix Joel Embiid, a guy who's trying to finish his

820
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 3: story and like have a great playoffs for the first

821
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 3: time in his career because he's had a lot of

822
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 3: falling moments. He's had a lot of moments where he's

823
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 3: missing time in the playoffs. But he's healthy right now.

824
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: Hopefully he's getting rounded into shape. Maybe the play in

825
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 3: tournament will help him, and he's going to be an

826
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 3: undercard or an underdog against most of the team undercard.

827
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 3: He's gonna be an underdog against most of the teams

828
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 3: that he runs up again, specifically like the Celtics.

829
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, yeah, I'll will add on a little bit.

830
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 2: I did want the Cody Rhodes profile because I think

831
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 2: there are a lot of type of scripts. But Cody

832
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: Road is too young for like a Chris Paul storyline,

833
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,319
Speaker 2: Like he is right at the end, right at the end,

834
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 2: but he wouldn't be the superstar to win at all.

835
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 2: So not that it's not a Cody Rhodes, but there

836
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 2: are several Clippers that could be a storyline. I mean,

837
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 2: Harden hasn't won one, Russell Westbrook hasn't won one, Paul George,

838
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 2: that's a lot of them to go along with Kai Leonards.

839
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 2: But like Embiid, who he's got to win now. I

840
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 2: think Jimmy Butler, we're basically we're close to the end.

841
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: I know Jimmy Butler is thirty four. He's gonna be

842
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 2: thirty five this year to be a number one guy.

843
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 2: That's the age limit for me. I know everybody is saying.

844
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 2: Everybody's saying, yeah, you can play basketball a lot later

845
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,720
Speaker 2: these days. Look at Lebron uh huh. But there aren't

846
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 2: many guys like mid thirties that are the number one guys.

847
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 2: Steph Yeah, well that's it. I mean, there aren't really many.

848
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 2: And Butler's it's gonna be thirty five, which is kind

849
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 2: of surprising. He seems younger, I guess, but I don't

850
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 2: know if there's an outside chance. I guess so, I

851
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 2: guess we're all sort of thinking, can Boston be knocked

852
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: off in the Eastern Coffee It? Can it happened? Maybe?

853
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 1: I I okay for the Embiid pick here for the

854
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 1: Cody Rhodes finish the story. One thing I don't like

855
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 1: about it is I feel like Embiid's still too much

856
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: like of a villain that he at least leans into,

857
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: So that's a little different than Cody again being like

858
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,720
Speaker 1: the super baby face. But I do like the finishing

859
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 1: story part because you could see, like if Embiid won

860
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,320
Speaker 1: a title obviously this season, in the next couple of seasons,

861
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 1: like there's gonna be something of like I Trusted the

862
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: Process or something like it will it will end the week?

863
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: You know, trust the process story arc. You can print

864
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 1: the t shirts and you can sell all that, so

865
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: that that that does fit to me. But let's hear

866
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: from you any wrestling siccos out there who else can

867
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: finish the story.

868
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 2: He's from around the corner. He's from a local book,

869
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 2: right local.

870
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,879
Speaker 1: I'm with Trey, though I've never been the Cody Roads fans.

871
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't know something about him. Just doesn't. I don't, like,

872
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,879
Speaker 1: I don't. I know people love him himself, but I'm

873
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: like then I'm like, I find him a little cringe, like,

874
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 1: and I know he loves wrestling, like maybe do an

875
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: unhealthy amount, but like, would I loved him if I

876
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:18,359
Speaker 1: was eight years old?

877
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 3: Like?

878
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: What have you loved him with you when you were

879
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: eight years old? Probably?

880
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 2: Right?

881
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,760
Speaker 3: I mean three straight crossroads to win the title of course?

882
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:28,280
Speaker 1: Island that Papa like kraz Do you think the Undertaker

883
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 1: will show up in Game six of the NJA Finals

884
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: to help out Jason Jatum.

885
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 3: Lights go dark? Yeah, just there at half court.

886

890
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:48,120

Speaker 3: CFL play.

899
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,120

Speaker 3: Yeah. He was talking over every entrance, is what I

902
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 3: thought he was doing. Anytime you're supposed to be quiet,

903
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 3: is when he was talking Like.

904
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 2: You didn't hear the intro song.

905
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was just chiming, just talking. Michael Coles letting

906
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 3: it breathe.

907
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,839
Speaker 1: It's fast and loose now man, under the new era.

908
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 3: I guess so, all right, next one here the odds read?

00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 1: leave the house at the same time my phone connects

916
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: to her car's bluetooth. She is therefore often greeted by

917
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: the best basketball pod this side of the Picos. That

Speaker 1: and hamark Islama more times than she ever thought she would.

920
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:15,200

926
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: you've accidentally been exposed to that you eventually loved.

927
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 2: Well In Alfie asked this question about his loved one

928
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,399
Speaker 2: listening to our podcast. I started thinking about the things

929
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 2: that my loved one plays in her car when she

930
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,840
Speaker 2: picks me up. There were several days where she picked

931
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 2: me up from my rehab when I was in the

932
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 2: hospital when her audio book was playing very loudly, and

933
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 2: I didn't like it, to be honest. So I'm kind

934
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 2: of like predicting the future here. I don't like audio books.

935
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 2: I just I'm just stubborn. I just want to read.

936
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 2: I just want to read books. Do I read enough books? No,

937
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 2: The answer is no. But I'm I just believe that

938
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 2: it's inevitable that I will listen to audio books, and

939
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: I think I'll listen at one point. Oh. One other

940
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 2: thing my wife does that I love her about is

941
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 2: her pace of the audiobooks that she listens to. It's

942
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 2: too fast. To be honest, I still love her, but

943
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 2: it's way too fast that that feels even less like

944
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 2: a read.

945
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 1: You know what speed reading?

946
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 2: She changes it up. She's she's got a variety from

947
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 2: froe one one point two five to two even to

948
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 2: sound the narrator. Yeah, it totally depends on the narrator,

949
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:50,200
Speaker 2: I guess, but it ain't right. Maybe one day I

950
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:52,800
Speaker 2: will and uh, we'll talk about it, Alfie.

951
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: What you got here, Trey? Yeah?

952
00:43:56,160 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 3: For me, it's olives and coconut, because if you would

953
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 3: ask me five years ago, do you like olives or coconut? Easy? No,

954
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 3: easy no. But then, like once I started thinking about it,

955
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 3: I was like muffle lettas they got olives spread on it, delicious,

956
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 3: they got the solive oil delicious. I like olives. Yeh wait,

957
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 3: hold on a second. I like olives, And it's the

958
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 3: same thing with coconut. It just keeps showing up in

959
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,360
Speaker 3: dishes and every time it's good. So eventually you just

960
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 3: gotta be like, well, I like that food. Now you

961
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 3: gotta update your dossier. So olives coconut, I like him now,

962
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 3: same with mushrooms. But that's like ten years now.

963
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,759
Speaker 1: Okay, nice Janey, do you have an answer.

964
00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 3: Here for this?

965
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, my kid, Jackson, he's very much into soccer and

966
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:39,400
Speaker 4: it's all EPL all the time. Oh, I'm starting to

Speaker 2: Interesting?

00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 4: Well, hit, My team is Arsenal okay, but his team

971
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,040

Speaker 4: Football? Yeah, with you, of course.

982
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: My answer for this is, if I'm being honest, almost

983
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:32,840
Speaker 1: every reality show on Bravo, you know, accidentally I'm exposed

984
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: to it because my wife is watching it, and it

985
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,799
Speaker 1: doesn't take long for these damn shows to get you. Man,

986
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,760
Speaker 1: Suddenly I gotta know what's going on in summerhouse Suddenly,

987
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: I know like half of the Real Housewives franchises, and

988
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:50,040
Speaker 1: you know, when the when the finales are and all

989
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 1: that is. You just it's so stupid. But it's tough.

990
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 1: It's tough, man.

991
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 4: They're very good at hooking it.

992
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: They're so good at it.

993
00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're so.

994
00:45:58,560 --> 00:45:59,080
Speaker 1: Good at it.

995
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 4: It's just an art form.

996
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, they've mastered it. Andy has mastered it.

997
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 2: He really has.

998
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 3: And it's almost like the entire season serves as a

999
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 3: trailer for the reunion show, because the reunion show is

1000
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 3: the best part when they've all watched it back and

1001
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,839
Speaker 3: then like, fright about it months later, but you got

1002
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 3: to watch the backstory. I actually understand what's going on,

1003
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 3: and they know.

1004
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: That because those used to be one episode from what

1005
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: I could remember. Now they drag goes into like three

1006
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 1: episodes sometimes maybe four. Of the finale, I'm just them

1007
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: talking about what happened in the season. It's nuts the

1008
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 1: amount of program and then they can fill So I'll

1009

00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 2: become a famous actor, most likely to break a world record,

1049
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 2: And there's some other ones, but we're not getting to

Speaker 1: Did you really know what did your hair look like

1056
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:04,279
Speaker 1: at that time? Did you?

1057
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,319
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, this was at this moment in time. I

1058
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 3: look like justin Timberlake from the No Strings Attached Records.

1059
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, yeah yeah yeah, long curls.

1060
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 3: With frosted tips. What are frosted tips coming back? That's

1061
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 3: something from the nineties and two thousands that has yet

1062
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 3: to come back. Give it time. I got two nominees

1063
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 3: for you for class Clown. Number one is Doc Rivers.

1064
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 3: Memes like literally the quote born. He's spent like a

1065
00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 3: quote board machine. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Everybody

1066
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,840
Speaker 3: seems happy except for me. It's been harder than I thought.

1067
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 3: I don't understand why you're doing this. We had some

1068
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 3: guys here, some guys in Cabo. I've been taking notes

1069
00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,880
Speaker 3: on the traveling team. Awesome stuff. I feel like everything

1070
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,359
Speaker 3: that comes out of Doc's mouth ends up on one

1071
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,280
Speaker 3: of these quote things. But my personal choice for class

1072
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 3: Clown has got to be Josh Hart, who I think

1073
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 3: has been hilarious this season. He was recently asked if

1074
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 3: he agrees with Doc Rivers that he's the heart of Nicks,

1075
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,760
Speaker 3: and Josh Hart responded, I don't know. He's the doctor.

1076
00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 3: I saw him miked up with him where he goes

1077
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 3: up to a reft and says, there's no way you

1078
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 3: can see that unless you have X ray vision. Now

1079
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 3: I fouled him and that's a great call, but there's

1080
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 3: no way you can see that. And of course he's

1081
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 3: called Mikhale Bridges squid word because he's not able to

1082
00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:22,320
Speaker 3: join in with all of his other Villanova buddies playing

1083
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 3: in New York City. So Josh Hart to me, has

1084
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:26,399
Speaker 3: been a very funny guy this season.

1085
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,760
Speaker 1: It's a great answer. Yeah, cool, love that one. Okay,

1086
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: he's the class clown.

1087
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,840
Speaker 3: Most likely to be president. He's actually friends with the

1088
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 3: class clown, no surprise. Jalen Brunson.

1089
00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 2: Interesting.

1090
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 1: Interesting.

1091
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 3: This guy goes. I mean he goes from team to team.

1092
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 3: He's played on two teams and obviously played in college.

1093
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 3: But he wins everywhere. He won in high school one

1094
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,399
Speaker 3: in college. He's a winning player at least in the NBA.

1095
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,280
Speaker 3: AB We'll see how far he goes. But in Dallas

1096
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:54,399
Speaker 3: he like invented the vibes are immaculate. Now he gets

1097
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 3: to New York and guess what, the vibes are immaculate.

1098
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 3: I just think he's well liked on both sides. Western Conference, Andy.

1099
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: Man, you can bring this country together. Only Jill Brunson

1100
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:06,960
Speaker 1: can save us. O. Yeah, what did you think of

1101
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,479
Speaker 1: that pick? Because you at first you're like me, You're like, well,

1102
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 1: I don't really thought Jill that way.

1103
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 2: But that's a very good point. They love each other,

1104
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 2: so yes, I mean extremely likable. I had Steph Curry

1105
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 2: because he you know, he can bring people together. He

1106
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,480
Speaker 2: was recently asked, are you going to run for president?

1107
00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 2: He didn't say yes or no, but he didn't decline.

1108
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:27,759
Speaker 2: He said, you know what, I want to be on

1109
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 2: my excuse me, I want to do really well with

1110
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,359
Speaker 2: my platform and do well for people. So he could

1111
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 2: be president. I mean, he's gonna do lots of good things.

1112
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 2: That's what he's gonna do. Is he gonna run for president? Probably?

1113
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 2: Probably not. It's highly island like Cuban, Mark Cuban. There's

1114
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:45,920
Speaker 2: a chance there he could run.

1115
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:48,799
Speaker 1: He flirted with it before. Okay, John Brunson, I like that.

1116
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:49,919
Speaker 1: That's a nice wild card pick.

1117
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 3: Most likely to become a famous actor. Anthony Edwards. H

1118
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 3: here he is, and there's an actor named Anthony Edwards.

1119
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, right, I think he was on e R.

1120
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:06,839
Speaker 3: This guy's charismatic, he's very funny, he's very well liked

1121
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 3: by everybody, and he just has a personality like that

1122
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:14,360
Speaker 3: sticks out in the NBA though. I do think, like

1123
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,719
Speaker 3: a lot of the most famous actors, he would be

1124
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:18,240
Speaker 3: playing himself in every.

1125
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:22,400
Speaker 1: Single Yeah, which is fine. Anthony Anthony Edwards is not

1126
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: doctor from there. I know they're all doctor. Sure, I

1127
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 1: don't think I do that with his name, though. He

1128
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 1: was maybe in Top Gun too, Is that possible.

1129
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 3: I think that's true.

1130
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: He may have had a little appearance in that. Okay,

1131
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards any qualms with movie?

1132
00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 2: Was he in Hustle?

1133
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:41,399
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1134
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah?

1135
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 3: With Where's He's Adam Sandler?

1136
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was Anthony Edwards.

1137
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 1: Kermit Washington, Washington. Nice, But that's he's just in a

1138
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 1: league full of charismatic guys. He's like, I don't know,

1139
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,799
Speaker 1: he's like levels up on it. It feels like just

1140
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 1: how he is. Like you see him off when he

1141
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: dunks on someone in a game and they show him

1142
00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 1: the clip after, it's like it's gold. Yeah, because he's

1143
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,520
Speaker 1: just so comfortable in his own skins. That's a good one.

1144
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. Lebron will probably be in another couple of movies.

1145
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 2: He's already been in one one. He's been in multiple

1146
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 2: Tyree's Halliburton. He loves being on podcasts. I think I

1147
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 2: think he's in a new podcast every week. It feels

1148
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 2: like I'm exaggerating, but he's been in a lot, so

1149
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 2: I think he likes it. He also has different voices

1150
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 2: he does. It's just.

1151
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 1: Take over for the Simpsons or something, and he like,

1152
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: I mean it sort of like goes with Hollywood, Like

1153
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: he's wearing the craziest things this season, and he's showing

1154
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,040
Speaker 1: up like dressed like characters, like cartoon characters. I don't

1155
00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: know if it's on purpose or not, but suddenly he

1156
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,759
Speaker 1: looks like Doug one week and someone dark du Yeah

1157
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: yeah right, Inspector gadget all right, Tyre's most likely to

1158
00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 1: become a cartoon is Tyree's hell. Most likely to be

1159
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 1: a voice actor in a cartoon, I love it, okay.

1160
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 1: Most likely to break a world record Victor Webbin Yama.

1161
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: He's going to retire as the all time leader in

1162
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: five by fives and quadruple doubles. Wow, you're calling it?

1163
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:14,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, geez yeah, I'm calling it.

1164
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:16,400
Speaker 1: So what and what is the record? I don't know,

1165
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,439
Speaker 1: only a handful of quadruple doubles for either a chem

1166
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 1: or somebody.

1167
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,200
Speaker 3: He's maybe has two. I think there's been four ever,

1168
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,400
Speaker 3: and two of them are Kareem Abdulgence or uh hackem

1169
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 3: Elijah Wan and then like five by fives maybe it

1170
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 3: came's the only guy that has two of those as well. Yeah,

1171
00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 3: I should take Wemby though, like two or three seasons.

1172
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:35,719
Speaker 1: Yes, this maybe sets it.

1173
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,839
Speaker 3: Next career blocks. I think you'd get that record. Also

1174
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,600
Speaker 3: at a Hakeem record thirty eight thirty in his career.

1175
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: Uh, well, he's averaging like was the average this.

1176
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 3: Year or Hakeem averaged three point one for his career.

1177
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 3: That's pretty good.

1178
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: And Wenby's averaging wasn't that right? I mean yeah, maybe I.

1179
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 3: Guess three point six blocks, So you just gotta do

1180
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,880
Speaker 3: it for another yeah whatever, fifteen years.

1181
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 2: Or whatever it is.

1182
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 3: And he's doing he's averaging three point six blocks per game,

1183
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,920
Speaker 3: and people avoid him as much as possible.

1184
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, and he's not playing a ton of

1185
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:14,320
Speaker 2: minute it's either.

1186
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,560
Speaker 1: So yeah, right. I was just gonna say, do you

1187
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: think do you think he'll have a year where he

1188
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 1: averages more than three point six blocks per game? Because

1189
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 1: on one hand, you're right, he'll play more minutes in theory.

1190
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's barely playing.

1191
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: But on the other hand, trace right, like people just

1192
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 1: starts like I'm not gonna shoot around, so it's like

1193
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 1: and then you have less opportunity to block those shots.

1194
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 3: Like Dion Sanders interception numbers going down, don't throw it

1195
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,000
Speaker 3: to throw to them. Yeah, just don't shoot layups.

1196
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 1: Okay, but he's gonna he's gonna break a world record

1197
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,760
Speaker 1: or two or three or four or five. Great stuff,

1198
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 1: great questions, guys, keep them coming all week long. No

1199
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 1: Dunk's at the Athletic dot Com if you want to

Speaker 1: Or you can drop them in YouTube comments. Uh, before

1202
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:53,279
Speaker 1: we go, let's get to tweeted the night.

1203
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,719
Speaker 2: Tweet over now, Wow, twitt.

1204
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 3: Hey, it's me. Let's talk about those Villanova Nicks again.

1205
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys heard. There was an

1206
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:10,120
Speaker 3: eclipse yesterday in North America. We were not personally in

1207
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 3: the path of totality, but it's bad. Totally watched it

1208
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 3: anyways because I love nature bringing us together. So here

1209
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 3: is our tweet of the night. It comes from your

1210
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 3: future president, Jalen Brunson, and it's a picture of Jalen Brunson,

1211
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 3: Josh Hart, and Dante DiVincenzo wearing their eclipse sunglasses, staring

1212
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,360
Speaker 3: straight into the sun. Because earlier, Josh Hart had tweeted,

1213
00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:39,640
Speaker 3: so do we need eclipse classes, to which Nicks memes responded.

1214
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 3: Knicks fans Okay, the injury bug has been tough this season,

1215
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 3: but at least things won't get worse. Fake woes. Jalen Brunson,

1216
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:48,360
Speaker 3: Josh Hart, and Dante DiVincenzo all went to stare at

1217
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 3: the eclipse today and are now legally blind. They did not.

1218
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 3: They got their glasses they were acquired, and of course

1219
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 3: they took a photo.

1220
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: If Jalen Bunsen is truly going to be a president,

1221
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 1: then he needs to have the glasses off looking up

1222
00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: in the sun. Iconic photo. That was something I saw

1223
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: that going around too. It made me laugh. Did you

1224
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:10,359
Speaker 1: could you throw the shades on and take a peek

1225
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 1: at what we got here in Atlanta? Which was not

1226
00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:14,280
Speaker 1: totality but not it would look cool?

1227
00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 2: It sure did look cool, and it looked cool with

1228
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 2: those glasses. The glasses I felt were very sturdy this year.

1229
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:25,280
Speaker 2: I went to an eclipse. Seven years ago. It was

1230
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. We had an eclipse. I was on the

1231
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 2: the grass at Clemson and my glasses stuck. They felt

1232
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 2: floppier back then for paper. Yeah, and so it was

1233
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 2: great to be looking around with glasses that actually stayed

1234
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 2: on your ears.

1235
00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: No, did you watch the whole thing just for three hours.

1236
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:46,960
Speaker 2: People were Yeah, I know, I know.

1237
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 1: It was people when I was driving over to a

1238
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 1: friend's house, like you know, people just like out in

1239
00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 1: their lawn chairs, just out in the driveway. Look it up. Yeah,

1240
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 1: it's like just watching the show.

1241
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 2: People are having drinking parts.

1242
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:01,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, right right.

1243
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,640
Speaker 3: Laura said she saw a guy sitting on his front

1244
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 3: porch wearing a welding mask staring at clips. That's awesome,

1245
00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 3: that's very cool. Our eclipse glasses just like super dark sunglasses.

1246
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 3: Is that all it is?

1247
00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:16,080
Speaker 2: I think so?

1248
00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 3: Or is there some kind of filter in those lenses?

1249
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 1: I assumed it was a filter because I think they

1250
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: I think they they don't encourage you to just wear

1251
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 1: sunglasses look at risky something.

1252
00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, or extremely strong. I mean, it's right, that's.

1253
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 3: True, that's true, the darkest possible tint.

1254
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1255
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 3: My favorite part of eclipse mania is when you look around,

1256
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 3: like on the ground and the light that's filtering through

1257
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 3: the trees. It's eclipsed as well, and it just looks

1258
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 3: like waves of like semicircle light for us, obviously not

1259
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 3: in the full path of totality, but great stuff, great stuff.

1260
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:52,320
Speaker 3: We'll be telling our kids about.

1261
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: This, when's the next one?

1262
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 3: Like twenty years, right, for a full one?

1263
00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: For a full one happened? They try and like trick us.

1264
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,640
Speaker 1: I feel like like it's a one ince in a

1265
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 1: lifetime event. You're like, what I've already experienced, like four

1266
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:08,960
Speaker 1: of these? What's going on here? Now? I know there's

1267
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 1: different eclipses and yeah, where you are in the world,

1268
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 1: I think maybe that's what's going on. But people seem

1269
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 1: to like it. Were you a fan? Everybody got their

1270
00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:17,040
Speaker 1: eyesight still?

1271
00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 2: I love people in Yeah, people in Toronto were crying,

1272
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 2: were sad, were so cloudy.

1273
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 1: They oh yeah, well a lot of people traveled to

1274
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: places that were going to be in the path of it.

1275
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:30,960
Speaker 1: You got it straight up clouds.

1276
00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was straight up clouds.

1277
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 3: I can't see those any daily.

1278
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: Old man yells at clouds. The actual meme come to life,

1279
00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:43,920
Speaker 1: totally fair, shake your fist out of cloud yesterday. All right,

1280
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 1: let's call it there. Twenty eight teams in action tonight, cool,

1281
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 1: fourteen games on. Can you name the only two teams

1282
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:55,440
Speaker 1: not playing tonight? There's a tribute question for you, Cloudsers one.

1283
00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,439
Speaker 2: Because they have three games left. That's the only reason

1284
00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 2: I'm saying.

1285
00:59:57,920 --> 00:59:59,919
Speaker 1: I'll just tell you the other one. Cavaliers and net

1286
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:05,920
Speaker 1: are Warriors the media. So according to Ziller, this is fun.

1287
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 1: Of the fourteen games, thirteen have at least one team

1288
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 1: with seeding steaks on the line, and five of these

1289
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 1: games have seeding steaks for both teams. Two biggest games

1290
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: are probably Warriors Lakers and Clippers Sons when you're like

1291
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 1: thinking about it, but you know, every game matters here

1292
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 1: for some of these other teams playing, maybe teams that

1293
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 1: are already eliminated, they want to win and help their

1294
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 1: chances to get out of the plan, move up a ranking,

1295
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:30,720
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So lots of games on. We'll be

1296
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 1: back to do our best to break down as many
