26
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 4: We'll get to that, and we got rapid fire fun.

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 4: But we had two games on last night and we

28
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 4: now have two series. One one, let's start in the

29
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 4: Western Conference, because we had Luca scoring twenty nine as

30
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 4: the Mass top the Thunder one nineteen one ten, and

31
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 4: again tying up this series at one game apiece. Your thoughts.

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: This is why we watch the games, because after game one,

33
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 3: everybody said, well, this is okay, see series. They look great.

34
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 3: Luca does not look great. Then there was that report

35
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 3: that some of his teammates prefer when he goes to

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: the bench that they breathe a sigh of relief. And

37
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 3: if I'm Howard Beck and I get that from an

38
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,279
Speaker 3: associate coach, I also publish that. But all that stuff

39
00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. Whatever happened in game one doesn't matter. There

40
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 3: are eight teams left and we are watching clearly one

41
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: of the eight best players in the league in Luca Docs.

42
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: And this wasn't a forty point game. This wasn't a

43
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: clear dominance by Luca, but it was Luca being that

44
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: guy where his role players and those guys coming off

45
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 3: the bench had to be good, and those were the

46
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 3: performances that really got them over the top. Obviously Tim Hardaway,

47
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 3: who ended this game very very surprising that he closed

48
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 3: this game Tim Hardaway and nobody knew that was coming.

49
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 3: Josh Green, who looked like Pat Conaton from the Milwaukee

50
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: Bucks when they won the twenty twenty one championship, with

51
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 3: those baseline cuts in those offensive rebounds, and a huge,

52
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 3: huge performance from PJ. Washington.

53
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 4: Hold on, let's start up the Chevy tracks.

54
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 3: Jason Kidd getting him involved in the post early really

55
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: changed the way their offense looked. That was really smart

56
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: instead of doing the classic thing with Luca and Kyrie

57
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 3: outside who Kyrie scored nine points, he had seven points

58
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 3: before garbage time, really before they had to go to

59
00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 3: the intentional fouls. Just while that they got all those performances. Listen, okay,

60
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: say he was good. Okay say it was really good

61
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 3: in this arena with all the blue shirts. It was

62
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 3: really fun. Early in the fourth quarter when Jalen Williams

63
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: had that put back dunk, it's only a four point game, yeah,

64
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: And then Luca again looks like he gets hurt, gets

65
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 3: his ankle stepped on, he's hobbling, but the MAVs are

66
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 3: able to score again. He is still clearly not right.

67
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 3: I know he hit threes in this game, but he's

68
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: clearly hobbling around. So he has a twenty nine point

69
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 3: performance and they have a great game just because all

70
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: those role players. It looks like, you know that conference

71
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: finals team for these this Dallas Mavericks when they went

72
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 3: to the conference finals and all the role players played

73
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 3: well behind Luca. It is like like like that where, yeah,

74
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 3: maybe you don't think PJA watched it all that good.

75
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 3: I didn't at the trade headline or Daniel Gafford or

76
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 3: Tim Hardaway or Josh Green, but they get enough and

77
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 3: they do it.

78
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 4: But Luca really set the tone in this game after

79
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 4: his face bounced off the floor. His face set the tone.

80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 4: He finished with twenty nine points, ten boards, seven assists,

81
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 4: eleven to twenty one from the field. But yeah, he's

82
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 4: got like this sprain right knee, it's got a bloody

83
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 4: left knee, and his face bounces off the floor early.

84
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: But he hit his first three shots. He scored eight

85
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 4: points there in the first three minutes. He hit sixteen

86
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 4: points at the end of the first quarter, six of

87
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 4: eight shooting. And then maybe because they changed up how

88
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 4: they were gonna gard him a little bit, it did

89
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 4: open up things for a lot of these other guys.

90
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 4: But he came out there. It was a desperate Mavericks

91
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 4: team and they played like it, like they had done

92
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 4: against the Clippers after losing that Game one.

93
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, Luca's only ever heard on defense. Soon as he

94
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 5: touches the ball, he heals immediately. And believe it or not,

95
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 5: but yeah, they came out. They were great. Twelve threes

96
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 5: in the first half for the Mavericks as well. I

97
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 5: thought Luca got the exact same shots he did as

98
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 5: he did in Game one. He just made these ones.

99
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 5: The dor Chert chamber was empty. He can't really guard

100
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 5: with Luca, but he can make it tough sometimes. And

101
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 5: then you get the support players hitting threes. Tim Hardaway

102
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 5: Junior having his best game at the playoffs so far.

103
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 5: You know, he was kind of out of the rotation

104
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 5: down the stretch for the Mavericks. He was hurt for

105
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 5: a little bit there, came back. He was really good. Obviously, PJ.

106
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 5: Washington was great. And yes, the Mavericks offense sometimes we forget. Yeah,

107
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 5: they're great. They second half of the season, once they

108
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 5: made the trades, the defense really kicked in. They became

109
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 5: a much more balanced team. But this is a team

110
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 5: that can put up points in a hurry. They only

111
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 5: got nine from Kyrie Irving, two for eight from the field.

112
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 5: But this is an incredible performance from this guy. He's

113
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 5: changed the way he's playing right now. We'll see him

114
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 5: score twenty points and a half in the first series

115
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 5: against the Clippers. But last night two for eight, Like

116
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 5: I said, but eleven assists for Kyrie Irving, pushing the pace,

117
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 5: getting off the ball really fast, and the defense is

118
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 5: incredible right now. Yeah, two steals, two blocks for Kyrie.

119
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 5: He's in everybody's shorts. He's ripping Chet Holmgren out on

120
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 5: the perimeter, taking it coast to coast for a layup.

121
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 5: Everybody on the MAVs team feels they can win this series.

122
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 5: They're completely bought in. They feel like they are a competitive,

123
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 5: championship quality team right now. And you could tell the

124
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 5: way they were playing last night, hitting eighteen threes. You

125
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 5: got Luca and Kyrie talking trash to fans sitting in

126
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 5: the stands for the Oklahoma City Thunder, and apparently Kyler

127
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 5: Murray as well, he was there. I guess he's a

128
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 5: Thunder fans and Oklahoma guy. I wouldn't necessarily want to

129
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 5: get either of those guys fired up.

130
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I know the eleven assists that Kyrie have,

131
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 4: I think five of them were two three point shooters.

132
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,799
Speaker 4: He talked about like, yeah, the defense leading to offense,

133
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 4: him touching paint and then kicking out and everybody hitting them.

134
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 4: PJ Luca, Josh Green, and Tim Hardaway Junior combining for

135
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 4: seventeen to three pointers on twenty eight attempts sixty one

136
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 4: percent from deep. So yeah, that allows you to get

137
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 4: a victory on the road despite your other superstar and

138
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 4: Kyrie having a quiet game scoring the ball. He's just

139
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 4: doing everything.

140
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: Else super quiet. Yeah, and even the two steals and

141
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 3: the two blocks great on the box score, but it

142
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 3: doesn't do it justice how much he was working on

143
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 3: the perimeter, getting up into guys stealing awesome, Like these

144
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 3: passes from Giddy, he was just pushing okay So's offense

145
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 3: back who had a better shake Gial just Alexander in

146
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,919
Speaker 3: this one, which is the shocking thing to say. Shae

147
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 3: was better thirty three points from him. He just looked

148
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: way more comfortable. I mean, he looked comfortable in Game one,

149
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 3: but he was scoring better in this one. And Jaylen

150
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 3: Williams also had a twenty point game. But yeah, the

151
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: mad role players fell in line, and I didn't know

152
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 3: what was gonna happen after Jason Kidd got the extension

153
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 3: and they had a bad game one, which Jason kids

154
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 3: teams always have a bad game one. But going to PJ.

155
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 3: Washington had to have helped Earl to just change the

156
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: way the geometry is for that team going into the

157
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: post and how the offense looked. And then he was

158
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 3: phenomenal obviously initting seven threes, but he got on a

159
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 3: roll and you just need you just need one guy

160
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: to help out those other two guys. But it is

161
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 3: it is crazy when you look at Kyrie's box score

162
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 3: to say, I mean he really had seven points before

163
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 3: he had two intentional free throws at the end. It

164
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 3: is phenomenal that they win this game.

165
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was like even watching the game. You know,

166
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 4: they get off to the hot start. They can't miss threes.

167
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 4: You know, Luke is doing his thing early. He starts

168
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 4: to cool down though, but they have a nice, comfortable

169
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 4: lead and then man, the Thunder can get back in

170
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 4: the game in a hurry, and they did it like

171
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,679
Speaker 4: twice really in this game. They did in the third quarter.

172
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 4: But the Mavericks hadn't answered. That was like the Tim

173
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 4: Hardaway Junior show there where he scored like ten points

174
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 4: in a minute and then you said a test after

175
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 4: the Jada dunk when he cleaned up. I guess it

176
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 4: was Wallace's missed layup attempt. You know, they're right back

177
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 4: in this game. The place is going crazy, and I'm

178
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 4: thinking again like oh no, man, like they're gonna they're

179
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 4: gonna win this game, like there's been a good Dallas

180
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 4: Mavericks game, but they haven't separated themselves enough. But then

181
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 4: they had an answer again. So really really impressive that

182
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 4: every time in that building where okay see was starting

183
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 4: to get stops and they were scoring, the Mavericks just

184
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 4: like you know, took it to another level and then

185
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 4: got the lead back and as it turned into like

186
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 4: a bit of an easy win in the end, I

187
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 4: forget who hit that corner three that really iced it. It

188
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 4: was that Tim.

189
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 5: Hard and.

190
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 4: Both hit him. Shay was good.

191
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 5: Only took six free throws though, so I think a

192
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 5: really good job by the Mavericks keeping him off the line.

193
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 5: He took what eleven in the first half of Game one,

194
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 5: only two in the second half, so MAV's are doing

195
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,199
Speaker 5: a lot better job of defending without Foling, though he

196
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 5: did have thirty three, but a couple of straight up

197
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 5: botches from Shay. I thought in the fourth quarter of

198
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 5: this one that inbounds play where he like comes over

199
00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 5: to talk to whoever standing underneath the basket, easy entry

200
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 5: to Washington for dark cut, and then he got put

201
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 5: under the basket for an end one as well in

202
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 5: the fourth quarter. The defense just wasn't nearly as good

203
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 5: for the Thunder. They forced fifteen turnovers in Game one,

204
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 5: only ten in this one, So the Mavericks really cleaned

205
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 5: up all of the lack of attention to detail that

206
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 5: they had in Game one.

207
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right. Offensively, I mean, okay, see, he's generally

208
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 4: gonna be happy with one hundred and ten points because

209
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 4: in the five prior games in this postseason they gave

210
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 4: up ninety two, ninety two, eighty five, eighty nine, and

211
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 4: ninety five. So then Dallas explodes for one hundred and nineteen.

212
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 4: That's where the game was won and loss, and a

213
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 4: big part of it was, yeah, three point shooting. Everybody

214
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 4: was knocking them down.

215
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 3: One move that Mark Dagnot made going into the second

216
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: half was sitting Josh. Giddy didn't start start the second half,

217
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 3: And I know you went through every sequence in the

218
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 3: first game where Josh sat down and that's when okay,

219
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: see got hot. Do you think there's a possibility that

220
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 3: they sit Josh for Game three?

221
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 4: Yes, the start of the game.

222
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, they went on thirteen to four run when he

223
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 5: wasn't out there at the start of the third quarter.

224
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 5: He's not doing anything minus twenty last night. He's played

225
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 5: twenty eight minutes so far in this series. He's a

226
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,080
Speaker 5: minus twenty seven. They don't guard him.

227
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 3: This is true.

228
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 5: He doesn't guard on the other end. It's not like

229
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 5: Giddy's bringing anything else. If he's not hitting wide open threes.

230
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 5: And even if they are, it's like, fine, we're gonna

231
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 5: live with him shooting.

232
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I do think he starts Game three. I do.

233
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 3: I hear all the problems with him because he's not

234
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 3: comfortable shooting the three ball. That's a problem. I do

235
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 3: think he comes back for a few reasons, just because

236
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: he's just because this team is young, and I don't

237
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 3: think you necessarily just want to throw that switch up

238
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 3: in the beginning of a game. He's also way better

239
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 3: at threes on the road some way, somehow, I don't

240
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 3: know how that happens. But in the first round he's

241
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: stunk at home shooting threes, and then he went on

242
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 3: into New Orleans four threes and four threes in games three,

243
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: in games four, and that's about it.

244
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 4: Like it's only okay seeing Mark Dagna. I've not done

245
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 4: this before either, Like at the start of the second

246
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 4: half they take a guy out of the starting lineup.

247
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 4: So it's not but Trey I mean you pointed out

248
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 4: after game one and wisely so because we saw it again,

249
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 4: they have played better when he's not out there. The

250
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 4: other part of it is Wigan. This is really good and

251
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 4: obviously gives you a lot of energy and can shoot,

252
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 4: so you got to, like, you know, stay a little

253
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 4: more honest with him.

254
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 3: He's smaller. That's the problem. He is a little bit smaller,

255
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 3: so the rebounding, which is a problem for the Okay,

256
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 3: see just the way there they're lined up. I mean,

257
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 3: Jalen Williams was the guy who came off the bench

258
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 3: warm at the beginning because he's big and that's what

259
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 3: they're looking at. So that's the small issue. If if

260
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 3: you play Aaron Wiggins, who does everything is just a

261
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 3: size thing as well.

262
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you think I don't stick with the starting

263
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 4: lineup for game three?

264
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 3: You think let's start him he can play fifteen minutes

265
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 3: in the game.

266
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 4: Well he couldn't last night.

267
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, he hasn't been able to play any minutes so

268
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 5: far in this series.

269
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, what like?

270
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 5: What what is Giddy bringing to the table for the

271
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 5: for the Thunder in this series?

272
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 4: Nothing except I mean Trey itasses. I guess the hope that,

273
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 4: like in the Pelican series, he finds his three point shot,

274
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 4: lets it go. Yeah that's it. But you maybe maybe

275
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 4: you make that decision early in game three? Yeah maybe, Yeah,

276
00:11:59,200 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 4: we'll see.

277
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, so far not so good. Yeah, I mean he's

278
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: he should be able to push the ball a little bit,

279
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 3: but the mass we're doing really well. Getting back in defense,

280
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 3: he should be able to rebund like he can. He

281
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 3: had five boards in the first game. But I think

282
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 3: it's also just, hey, this is who we are, this

283
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 3: is what we did. I mean, yes, you could.

284
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 5: They've got a deep enough team that they don't. Yeah,

285
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 5: they've got so many guys that can play. Nobody plays

286
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 5: nine guys in the playoffs. Nobody does. They play eight,

287
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 5: maybe seven. Some teams play six. Yeah, he doesn't have

288
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 5: to be part of the ninth this time, right, maybe

289
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 5: the next series.

290
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's definitely not closing games, that's for sure.

291
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 3: They have enough guys to do that. I just think

292
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 3: it's keeping the old thing that got us here. But yeah,

293
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: he's playing less and that's we knew that, even even

294
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 3: the idea of Gordon Hayward at the beginning when they

295
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 3: made the trade. If he's good enough, he could be

296
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 3: the better Giddy. So yes, it's either Aaron Wiggins I

297
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: assume would be there.

298
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, he's played well, He played hard, and he

299
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 4: seems to be giving him a lot more and fitting

300
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 4: better when he's out there than Gideon is for sure.

301
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 4: What do you think of Derek Lively's game in this one?

302
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:12,200
Speaker 4: I thought offensively pretty horrendous. He was missing Bunny after

303
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 4: Bunny one to seven basically on all layup attempts, so

304
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 4: he just could not get that thing to drop inside.

305
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 4: Nearly injured his own guy there on a dunk attempt

306
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 4: Derek Jones Junior two. But as a rook I thought

307
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 4: he was really good on the other end, did a

308
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 4: good job boxing out. He only got credited, I guess

309
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 4: with one block in zero steels, but it felt like

310
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 4: he was altering more shots than that and sort of

311
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 4: like cutting off passing angles, just being a nuisance on

312
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 4: that floor. I thought he played really good and plus

313
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 4: eighteen shows that he was like obviously helping the team. Yeah.

314
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 5: I thought he was pretty bad in game one and

315
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 5: he was much better here. Yeah, in game two, him

316
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 5: and Daniel Gafford really took Chet out of the game.

317
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 5: Four turnovers for Chet, he didn't really seem to ever

318
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 5: get in a flow one for six from the three

319
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 5: point line, so he's not making it back in the

320
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 5: bet that the Thunder liked to talk about, where like, yeah,

321
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 5: we're gonna give up rebounds, but we're gonna hit threes.

322
00:13:59,080 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 4: On the other side.

323
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 5: Chat was just completely out of sorts, I thought in

324
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 5: this one, falling down a lot. You know, he just

325
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 5: just wasn't a great game for Chat.

326
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 4: He had the one cool play at the end of

327
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 4: the first quote that was awesome, great catch, great shot.

328
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 5: I was like Christian Latner to the max out there,

329
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 5: but he got crushed on the glass in this one.

330
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, his only three belongs in sports science. The way

331
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 3: he caught a sports and that was a sixty foot

332
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 3: bomb of a pass for a seven footer to catch it.

333
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 3: It was like, yeah, and that was his only three

334
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 3: of the games which did Yeah, it was and Gafford

335
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 3: hurt his hand, But yeah, we saw a different Derek

336
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 3: Lively in this game, that's for sure. And all the

337
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 3: role players just saw Luca be better and and started

338
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: to follow his lead. And that's what best players do

339
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 3: in this league is you know, we'll see the Boston

340
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 3: we'll talk about the Boston Celtics. When your leaders don't

341
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 3: play like that, it's hard to follow. Uh, it's that's

342
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: that's the recipe, that's for sure. Also another great play.

343
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 3: I mean we can go through a billion sports science plays,

344
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 3: but that Luca passed from it was like the sideline

345
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 3: to Derek Jones Junior for that alley. That was awesome too.

346
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 3: That was fairly long. I mean the airplane whatever you

347
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 3: call that guy that. I don't think Derek Johnes Jr.

348
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 3: Has a really good nickname.

349
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 4: They call him airplane.

350
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, airplane mode, airplane mode.

351
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 4: I guess that's here too. There's flight fifty man, guy

352
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 4: gets sore man.

353
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 3: It's awesome. That's good. She looks like he got.

354
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 5: Hurt in the second half too. Yeah, he came down.

355
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 5: He was limping back and forth, back and forth, and

356
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 5: then he caught another alleup.

357
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 3: So flight fifty five I think is his other nickname

358
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 3: he's got, Yeah, flight fifty five. Yeah, that's not bad anyway.

359
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 3: I just I can see a video obviously, you know,

360
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 3: make some sort of fun.

361
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 4: Luke also had like the soccer throw in lob earlier

362
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 4: in the game. I forget to who that one was too,

363
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 4: maybe to Gafford or Lively. You know, there's a couple

364
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 4: of lobs. Obviously, the MAVs were hitting threes and finding

365
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 4: the role guys and throwing it down. So good game,

366
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 4: great bounce back. I think a lot of people are excited.

367
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 4: This is one one we've thought this series would probably

368
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 4: be long. Looks like it's gonna head that way. I

369
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 4: don't think, like, you know, okay, see there's some issues

370
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 4: and we'll find out what they do with Gideon and

371
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 4: all that. But it wasn't like, oh, they got they

372
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,600
Speaker 4: got destroyed, like what happened to them? No, not at all,

373
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 4: Like they were hanging around. I couldn't believe they're still

374
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 4: in the game. And again I thought they were gonna

375
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 4: like take this, but Dallas always when they got right

376
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 4: back into the game. Okay, see they just took control

377
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 4: again because there was that stretch there in the fourth quarter,

378
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 4: even the thunder hit one shot. I think it was

379
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 4: an SGA reverse layup. They went one for eleven in

380
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 4: like a four minute stretch, and that sort of like

381
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 4: was the game in the end. Any other notes from

382
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 4: thunder MAVs. I blew Nora's nine. I blew Nora's mind

383
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 4: last night when I told her, okay, get you get

384
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 4: your dirty thoughts out of your head there. I blew

385
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 4: her mind when I told her he'll be Brown as

386
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 4: ninety years old.

387
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought, maybe we don't make a

388
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 3: big enough deal out of this. No, I know, this

389
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 3: is crazy when you think about it.

390
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 4: He should be retired.

391
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 3: Why is he working because he's still good?

392
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 5: I am no good.

393
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 3: I know when Richard Ditsch posted that article about Hubey

394
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 3: Brown being ninety two, right, is he ninety two?

395
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 4: He's ninety He turns ninety one and September.

396
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 3: But I don't know why I think he's turning ninety

397
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 3: ninety two.

398
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 4: I agree. I thought it was that old last night too.

399
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 3: He's been doing the broadcasting for forty years.

400
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 4: Right, he's seen everything.

401
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 5: He gone back and coached every now and then, he's

402
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 5: seen every NBA season.

403
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 3: Oh that's good.

404
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 4: It's amazing. Yeah, And like is he knows what looked like?

405
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,240
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's like Bob Pettitt. People forget

406
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 5: he was a bucket people. Literally, I believe you. It's crazy,

407
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 5: Like I don't know, he's like traveling around.

408
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 4: He's staying up late, like this is late for me

409
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 4: watching these games, and this standard what like twelve thirty

410
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 4: Eastern time, that's eleven thirty Central.

411
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 3: It's amazing.

412
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 4: You want sports science, sports science, Huby brown Man, what

413
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 4: is going on with this guy?

414
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 3: Yeah? I know, I know. When I saw that article,

415
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 3: I honestly he didn't believe it. I thought, wow, this

416
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 3: is amazing, this is phenomenal stuff. You said you blew

417
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 3: noris mind. I thought you were the one with the

418
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 3: the audio of that video, Luca Dona, What's what was

419
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 3: going on?

420
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 4: Was your somebody pumping in porn?

421
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 3: Sure sounds like it's a very funny.

422
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 5: I can get get kicked out of Oklahoma. I think,

423
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 5: get out all.

424
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 4: Right, let's keep it going here, let's go to the

425
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 4: first game from last night. The shocking result. Maybe maybe

426
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 4: not because the Celtics level playoff stinker, but Donovan Mitchell

427
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 4: twenty nine points to help the Calves blow out the

428
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 4: Celtics one eighteen ninety four. Trey quiet first half from

429
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 4: Donovan Mitchell, six shots, six points, but then to quote him,

430
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 4: when it was time to go, it was time to

431
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 4: go off sixteen points in the third quarter, three straight.

432
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 5: Baskets to start. It was like Chao peckt.

433
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 3: Him to go.

434
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 4: Like he picked it up there in the third corner.

435
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 5: The floodgates opened in a third quarter there Mitchell was

436
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 5: killing them. And pick and roll they had. The Celtics

437
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 5: had no possible coverage that would work on Donovan Mitchell,

438
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 5: I thought in the second half, and I thought it

439
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 5: was pretty smart the way Cleveland played things the entire night.

440
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 5: They crushed inside in the first half. Thirty six of

441
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 5: their sixty points in the paint came in the first half.

442
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 5: Then they opened things up in the second half, especially

443
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 5: in the third quarter. They hit seven threes, and I

444
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,239
Speaker 5: thought Mitchell was a huge part of that. It was like,

445
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 5: if they're playing a soft drop coverage, I'm pulling up

446
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 5: hitting the three in your face. If you're gonna try

447
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 5: and trap me, we can find somebody and move the ball.

448
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 5: If you're gonna give me a driving lane, I'm gonna

449
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 5: get to the hoop and create an incredible shot inside.

450
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 5: He had that awesome crossover on Jalen Brown coming up

451
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 5: the left wing that he like euros around Al Horford

452
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 5: to finish at the hoop. Mitchell has a great playoff player.

453
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 5: He's a guy that is happy to take on all

454
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 5: of the responsibility of handling the ball. I just thought

455
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 5: he was phenomenal in this game. And then on the

456
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,400
Speaker 5: flip side, the Cat's played pretty so defense, really limiting

457
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 5: the Celtics three point attempts. They gave up forty six

458
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 5: looks at three in Game one, only thirty five in

459
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 5: Game two, and it just felt like they were selling

460
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 5: out to run the Celtics off the three point line.

461
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 5: Say take any two pointer you want, we will live

462
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 5: with that. Then the three pointers of the Celtics actually

463
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 5: did get eight for thirty five. I think it's their

464
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 5: second worst shooting night of the season.

465
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, so yeah, And this is a team that led

466
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 4: the league in makes from deep attempts, finished second overall.

467
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 4: In percentage, like this is their offensive weapon, the Celtics,

468
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 4: the three point shot. If you can take that away,

469
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 4: if you can limit it attempts and obviously makes, if

470
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: you can have a part in that as well, then

471
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 4: you have a good chance to beat them, because eight

472
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 4: for thirty five is generally not going to cut it

473
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 4: in a postseason game, not when the other team's doing

474
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 4: a bit better.

475
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 3: No, it is not going to do it. I do

476
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 3: think they just weren't attacking as much. They're sort of

477
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 3: just looking for mismatches instead of going going going like

478
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 3: what comes first the attack or looking for mismatches, and

479
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 3: so they look for mismatches and they just kind of

480
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 3: slows down instead of attacking everything because everything is almost

481
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 3: a mismatch in this matchup, and you do that and

482
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,679
Speaker 3: then it trickles down. It's a trickle down effect to

483
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 3: the three point makes. I do think the second half

484
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 3: was won by twenty four points for the Calves, and

485
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 3: it was eight more threes made. So it's the math

486
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 3: eight times three, I mean, that's what happened. They made

487
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 3: ten at Boston May two, So was it just math

488
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 3: or was it just Boston not running their offense quicker

489
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 3: and getting more into it being the old Boston team

490
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,959
Speaker 3: that you say every year, Tray, Boston's not gonna win

491
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 3: in a game in this series just because they're going

492
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 3: to be Boston. And I think that's what it was.

493
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 3: I mean, they kind of felt like.

494
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,479
Speaker 5: Like everybody picked Celtics in five, right, Yeah, because everybody

495
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 5: thought this game would happen. Yes, and it always happens,

496
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 5: and one of them always happened.

497
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 4: One of them does, and you're gonna win the next three,

498
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 4: no problem.

499
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,640
Speaker 3: Probably. Yeah, It's what Steve Crer used to say. It's said,

500
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 3: you win game one, game two, is that team that

501
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 3: the road team can take because you.

502
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: Kind of get a little flat.

503
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's what they were. And so yes, the

504
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 3: Calves the Caves definitely played better. They sensed it, especially

505
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 3: going into the locker room. Oh crap, we're playing we're

506
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 3: playing good, but the other team, but the Boston Celtics

507
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 3: should have should have been feeling in the other locker room. Damn,

508
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 3: that team is going to come out and play hard,

509
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 3: right right they did not.

510
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 4: We can basically put the series away in the second

511
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 4: half here. Yeah, you know, is to some extent because

512
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 4: we're so much better.

513
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 3: But yeah, or in the first I mean they started fine,

514
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 3: but they weren't playing the same way. The defensive flubs

515
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 3: that they had over and over and over again, where

516
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 3: they miscommunicated, where they weren't taking the guy who's starting

517
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 3: the pick and roll or rolling, I mean they were

518
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 3: brain farts. It felt like, and this is a championship team.

519
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: I say championship, they haven't won one yet. And after

520
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 3: this you kind of feel like, is it going to

521
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 3: be the team and like they went to the finals

522
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 3: and all that. I don't know. It sure feels like

523
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a five game series and then they'll

524
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 3: be in the conference.

525
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 4: I almost talked myself into Celtics and six because I

526
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 4: think the way Mitchell has proven that he's the best

527
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 4: player right now in this series, and you know, he

528
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 4: had a good game, but he probably still has a

529
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 4: better game even in him maybe at home, maybe not.

530
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 4: I'm leaning more towards Celtics and six. I think they're

531
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 4: gonna win this thing like everybody else. But this was bad.

532
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 4: Evan Mobley best playoff game of his career. I don't

533
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 4: think that's a stretch to say. Twenty one points, ten boards,

534
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 4: five assists, two blocks, nine to fifteen shooting. He was

535
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 4: a big part of tray. Like he said, all those

536
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 4: points in the paint, that's where a lot of his

537
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 4: were coming. Though he did hit a three at the

538
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 4: top of the break there. He was just great. He

539
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 4: was looking at the rim like like we were saying

540
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 4: in Game one, like you're getting it man, Like you're tall,

541
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,120
Speaker 4: you're lanky. I mean, you're faster than when Al Horford's

542
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 4: on you. Sorry, he's a great defender, but you should

543
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 4: be able to use your athleticism and speed a little bit.

544
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 4: And I just thought he played a great, great game

545
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 4: and was a big part. So was carosel Vert. So

546
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 4: Garland played better. Yeah, they their main four guys, like

547
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 4: they maybe had the four best players last night. Yeah,

548
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,360
Speaker 4: overall in the game.

549
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 3: And guys like Mobley got better as the game went

550
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,479
Speaker 3: on because Boston had a brain fart in the beginning.

551
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 3: I just think that you know, they weren't asserting themselves,

552
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 3: so you know the casts can sense. I mean, they

553
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 3: felt a lot better in this game. Thoughts on Derek White,

554
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 3: who you guys compared to Ray Allen after the Game one?

555
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 4: Given the old jinx on that one, didn't we I don't.

556
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 3: Know Ray's done this before. That's right.

557
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 4: All the great shooters have some rough nights.

558
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he went from seven of twelve in game

559
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 3: one to one of eight in game two. I went

560
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 3: through the Ray Allen stats. He's done this before. In

561
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 3: the playoffs against the Lakers in the finals, he had

562
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 3: an eight of eleven. It was a great game. Eleven

563
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 3: of twenty from the floor, eight of eleven from three.

564
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: Then the next game didn't hit a three, oh of

565
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 3: eight and oh of thirteen from the floor.

566
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 4: Oh crap.

567
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, remember that one that we we do remember we

568
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 3: were talking something wrong with Ray Allen in the finals

569
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 3: against the Lakers that year. It was a fun finals,

570
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 3: although you know Lakers won it. But even still, there's

571
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 3: lots of I went through all his stats. There's there's

572
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 3: some offers where he falls it up with a good one.

573
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 3: So maybe game through will be good. U Ray does this,

574
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,199
Speaker 3: he can still be Ray.

575
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 4: Okay, there's a little tongue in cheek that Derek White

576
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 4: is Ray Allen.

577
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 5: But yes, point taken eight for twenty to start the series.

578
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 5: That's forty percent.

579
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 4: Still lights out numbers. Yeah, but they did not have

580
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 4: a good game, of course, Derek White, I thought Drew

581
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 4: Holliday was sort of non existent in this one as well.

582
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 4: And Tatum. Let's talk Tatum here a little bit. He's quiet.

583
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 4: He is not doing a whole lot offensively scoring the ball.

584
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: In the postseason. He's averaging under twenty two points. His

585
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 4: splits are basically forty, twenty seven and eighty one. You

586
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,320
Speaker 4: don't love to see the forty there. You don't love

587
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 4: to see under thirty from deep. He has only shot

588
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 4: fifty percent or better one time in this postseason so far.

589
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 4: He's leading the team in rebounds, he's leading the team assists,

590
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 4: he's leading the team in blocks. I believe he's doing

591
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 4: all the other things. But you're I mean, I'm gonna

592
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 4: want to see a Tatum sort of breakout here. I

593
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 4: think at so maybe not in this series, maybe it

594
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: won't even have to happen, but obviously moving forward, that's

595
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,239
Speaker 4: going to happen. What are you seeing from Tatum so far?

596
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 5: He's getting locked down by Max Strewce. Max Strews is

597
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 5: playing really solid defense. Nothing is coming easy for Jason Tatum.

598
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 5: He did go to the free throw line eleven times.

599
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 5: Love to see that because one of the biggest criticisms

600
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 5: for Tatum is he just wants to take a step

601
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 5: back three and he does just want to take a

602
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,719
Speaker 5: step back three for the most part, or a weird fallaway.

603
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 5: They just need him inside. The guy six foot ten,

604
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 5: he should be inside trying to score on Max Strews.

605
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 5: And I assume that will happen going forward because the

606
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 5: Celtics will just give a better effort. Man Like, this

607
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 5: was the exact same game as Game two against the Heat.

608
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 5: It was the exact same but guess what, Donovan Mitchell

609
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 5: is Tyler Hero in this one. Tyler Hero had an

610
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 5: awesome game too. He didn't do anything the rest of

611
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 5: the series after that. Mitchell's a way better player. But

612
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 5: the Celtics just need to lock in and they need

613
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 5: to shoot better than twenty three percent from three.

614
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:45,719
Speaker 3: It was just an odd game from the Celtics. I

615
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 3: guess it's not that odd. It is similar to the

616
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 3: Miami Heat, but it was odd seeing some things like

617
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 3: Jason Tatum. You remind me of a third quarter play

618
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 3: where Evan Mobley comes out to him, so he's got

619
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 3: the quick advantage. He goes right by him, gets to

620
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 3: the rim, and then just kind of stops. It looked

621
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 3: like an awkward release. He I guess thought that Evan

622
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 3: Mobley was right behind him, but he just let go

623
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 3: of the ball and missed and there was no reason

624
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 3: to miss. And then somehow this Calves just because they

625
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 3: have this confidence coor goes the other way dunk. Next possession,

626
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 3: Jalen Brown gets Evan Mobley in the exact same position.

627
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 3: He has the quick advantage. He went right by him

628
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 3: and instead of going to the whop, he kind of

629
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 3: just jumped in the air to get contact from Evan

630
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 3: Mobley missed the shot. It was just and then the

631
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 3: Calves pushed again because they have the confident MOBILEI aluop.

632
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 3: He just didn't look like a very good basketball started watching.

633
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 4: That's the thing. When you catch the Celtics on the

634
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 4: wrong night, you're like, what hell the hell is this

635
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 4: a championship contender. You're like, they look nothing like it

636
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 4: when you see these games, and they have these weird

637
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 4: duds in a lot of their series, you know, going

638
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 4: back seasons now, with this sort of core the J's

639
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 4: as their lead guy, it happens. But they got to

640
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 4: win four out of the seven, and they more times

641
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 4: than not do in most of the series. So yeah,

642
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 4: they will. I'm sure look a lot better there in

643
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 4: Game three on Saturday. Yeah, Saturday.

644
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 5: And the Celtics like to lose at home fourteen and

645
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 5: fourteen in their last twenty eight playoff games in Boston

646
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 5: over the last three seasons.

647
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 3: Bonkers.

648
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's weird. Also a wild stat I saw the

649
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 4: Cavaliers twenty four point margin was the largest playoff win

650
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 4: by a double digit underdog since nineteen ninety one, So

651
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 4: they're coming in as a huge dog in this game.

652
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 4: Everybody expecting the Celtics to roll once again, and they

653
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 4: win by twenty four and apparently that hasn't been done

654
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 4: since nineteen ninety one. Thanks the ESPN stats an Info

655
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 4: for that one. Any other notes on Celtics Cavs No, okay,

656
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 4: let's get to some new Like Porzingis's jacket. I mean

657
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 4: I do like the jacket.

658
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a team missued jacket. Everybody on the Celtics

659
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 5: has one of those green bombers.

660
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 4: That's interesting. I mean I think you could ask for one.

661
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 5: He bought that the team shop. I guess I'm out

662
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 5: I need some fits Sideline.

663
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 3: It's a puzzling yea jacket you don't usually see team stuff, ejaculate.

664
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good point, all right. We had some

665
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 4: news yesterday. The Phoenix Suns fired head coach Frank Vogel

666
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 4: eleven days after the team was swept out of the

667
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 4: postseason's first round by the Wolves. Quote. After a thoughtful

668
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 4: review of the season, we concluded that we needed a

669
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 4: different head coach for our team. It's his son's GM,

670
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 4: James Jones saying in a statement, we appreciate Frank's hard

671
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 4: work and commitment. See you Leadank, after a thoughtful review

672
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 4: of the season, very thoughtful. Eleven days. Is that thoughtful enough?

673
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 3: Yes days? Because it was seven days ago. We talked

674
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 3: about Matt Ishbia's press conference.

675
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 4: That's right, and that came a couple of days after

676
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 4: they had bounced.

677
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 3: That was seven and he said the fire, sorry, the

678
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 3: house is not fire. Ask twenty six teams around the league.

679
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 3: They would want our roster, but I guess they wouldn't

680
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 3: want ours.

681
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 4: They wouldnt want our coach.

682
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 3: Yah.

683
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we can't do anything with our roster. Basically,

684
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 4: let's be really blow it up. So Frank Vogel is

685
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 4: the fall guy. This is not a surprise, TK. You

686
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 4: thought this would happen. And a lot of people did,

687
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 4: and now it's where do they go from here? I

688
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 4: guess Mike Budenholzer is the is the guy they're maybe

689
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 4: eyeing most. It seems to be at the top of

690
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 4: their their wants when it comes to a coach. What

691
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 4: do you think?

692
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, Actually, Shaan's is reporting just now the Phoenix Suns

693
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 5: planned to hire Mike Buten their head coach on a

694
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 5: deal expected to approach eight figures per year. He's also

695
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 5: a whole Brook Arizona native.

696
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 4: Okay, where's that?

697
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 5: I don't know, Probably buy Phoenix Wholebrook. But yeah, shout

698
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 5: out to Ryan Gossling. Somebody's got to be the fall guy,

699
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 5: that's right, And it's Frank in this one because where

700
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 5: they're smoked, their's fire. Like literally, as soon as the

701
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 5: Suns were swept out of the playoffs, it was rumblings

702
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 5: that there was discontent, that they weren't happy, that they

703
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 5: were laughing at him for trying to get angry, that

704
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 5: they're rolling their at him, and he said, I want

705
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 5: to point guard, the saying we got us, you don't

706
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 5: need a point guard. So now they're bringing in Mike Budenholzer,

707
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 5: which is very strange to me. Because I saw Doug

708
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 5: Holler writing for The Athletic. He said Vogel didn't have

709
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 5: much of a chance. He was a defensive minded coach

710
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 5: with an offensive minded roster. Roster's the same. Yeah, I

711
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 5: remember Mike Budenholzer as a coach. Wasn't that long ago.

712
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 5: He was known as a defensive minded head coach. So

713
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 5: I don't know what they're gonna change.

714
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 3: Here, right, Yeah, I wonder what they're gonna do with

715
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 3: the roster because Vogel is, Yeah, he's just he's taking

716
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 3: one for the team here, taken one for the franchise

717
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 3: because what else was he supposed to do? For what

718
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 3: did he not do? And I think according to all reports,

719
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 3: he just didn't have the locker room. As you said. Yeah,

720
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 3: maybe he wasn't vocal enough. It wasn't Frank vocal enough.

721
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 3: He just didn't have the locker room altogether. And when

722
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 3: you bring up Budenholzer, doesn't seem to be a characteristic

723
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 3: of that guy.

724
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems really similar to the two guys. I'm

725
00:31:58,480 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 4: with you.

726
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 3: So he just took it. I mean, yes, they don't

727
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 3: have a defensive roster. They had Josha Kogi. They win

728
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 3: got Royce O'Neill. Okay, they were a mediocre defensive team.

729
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 3: That's exactly what they should be. They don't have a

730
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 3: point guard. Their point guard didn't play until twenty twenty four. Really,

731
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 3: most most of the time was in twenty twenty four

732
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 3: for Bradley Beal, so they started it a little solely.

733
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 3: But the team was a top ten offense.

734
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 4: That's not bad, no, I don't think, but it wasn't good.

735
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 4: They were garbage in the fourth quarter. Yeah, that was

736
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 4: always perplexing. Sure, with that much talent, it's like, weren't

737
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 4: they the worst?

738
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 3: Well, the Timberwolves were teams. The Timberwolves, who might be

739
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 3: the freaking NBA champions, were also very bad in the

740
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 3: fourth quarter. Fair enough, This team was twenty seven to

741
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 3: twenty two against plus five hundred teams. That's pretty freaking good.

742
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, they won forty nine games in a season where

743
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 4: there was a lot of guys in and out and

744
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 4: they didn't have a lot of consistency with their big three.

745
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 4: I mean, look, he's definitely the fall guy for sure.

746
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 4: He's not a bad coach. I'm not going to cry

747
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 4: too much for him. I think he's still got about

748
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 4: twenty five million dollars coming his way. He signed a

749
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 4: five year thirty one million dollars. He's only there one year,

750
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 4: so you know, do the math. He's good, He's okay.

751
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean, well it's up to Durant and

752
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 4: Booker and obviously Beale, Like they make it seem like

753
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter who's coaching us. I mean that's sort

754
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 4: of their approach. That's been sort of Durant's m definitely, Well,

755
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: maybe it does, first off, because you haven't had a

756
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 4: lot of success without you know, Steve Kerr and Steph

757
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 4: Curry and that team. But he's gone through a lot

758
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 4: of coaches, is my point here, Like this is a

759
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 4: lot of coaches for Kevin Durant in a very short window.

760
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 4: This will be his fifth coach in two years. I

761
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 4: think I have that right. It probably eventually will be.

762
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they went into the playoffs and absolutely stuck.

763
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 3: They didn't have leadership throughout the roster, So you'd think

764
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 3: that you need a really, really vocal coach, like somebody

765
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 3: who runs that roster because it's.

766
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 4: I would really love Tyloo probably, yeah, someone to hold

767
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 4: them a little more accountable and maybe someone that they

768
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 4: actually respect or whatever.

769
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 3: Because they will respect. Yeah, well, they really have to

770
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 3: change the roster, and it's going to be extremely difficult

771
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 3: because they can't just bunch guys together because they're into

772
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 3: the second apron. They can't put more than one guy

773
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 3: in a trade. They can't aggregate those numbers together. So

774
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 3: they got to trade one guy for a really good

775
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 3: defensive guy, like a top shelf defensive guy to be

776
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 3: in their starting lineup to join those big three, or

777
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 3: a great rim blocker, like a shot blocker I guess,

778
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 3: or rim deterrent type of guy, like they need somebody

779
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 3: like that.

780
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 4: It's hard to get that. It's gonna be hard.

781
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 5: Traden, Grayson Allen, he was awesome for you this year

782
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 5: trading use of Nurkic. He was about the healthiest he's

783
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 5: been in his career in this series all right, in

784
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 5: this season.

785
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:39,440
Speaker 4: So I don't know.

786
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 5: I do think that the Suns will probably win more

787
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 5: games in the regular season next year. Mike Budenhaser wins

788
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 5: in the regular season, right like he had a sixty

789
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 5: win season with the Hawks, had a sixty win season

790
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 5: with the Bucks. Both of those teams were the number

791
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,760
Speaker 5: one team in their conference at certain points, So getting

792
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 5: a home court advantage I think is in the mix

793
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 5: perhaps for Phoenix, depending on the health of their guys,

794
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,360
Speaker 5: But it be a question mark come playoff time, and

795
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 5: it'll come down to Ken Durant and Booker hit contested

796
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 5: twos and can they make enough threes.

797
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 4: That's a big thing.

798
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 5: Budenholzer has to convince those guys to shoot more three pointers.

799
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 5: Kevin Durant should take ten threes a game, yeah, probably,

800
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 5: but he's also like eighteen years into his career, so

801
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 5: good luck changing him.

802
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 4: It'll be tough. I do love that if Budenholzer gets

803
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 4: this job. Sounds like he's going to. We have ten

804
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 4: active head coaches that have won championships. So it's Pop,

805
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,800
Speaker 4: it's Kerr, It's Spoe, Nick Nurse, Michael Malone, Rick Carlisle,

806
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 4: Doc Rivers, Tyloo, all those guys for now employed. Vogel

807
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 4: had a championship yes, with the Lakers in the bubble,

808
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 4: and that left Bud as the really the only championship

809
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 4: winner left on the board. But now he's slotted in

810
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 4: there too, into Phoenix, so they have who else is

811
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 4: hanging out? Yeah, so they have a you know, they

812
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 4: have a type here. They went with Vogel. Yeah, championship. Okay,

813
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 4: that didn't work. Well, Bud's left. We can't get Tyleru yet,

814
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 4: so we'll go with Bud til Jackson. That one down right,

815
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 4: right right. So now, if Boonenholder is taking this job,

816
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 4: there's only two spots left in the NBA because the

817
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 4: Hornets have their guy, which we can talk about in

818
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 4: a second. The Wizards and the Lakers are the only

819
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 4: two teams looking for a coach if Budenholzer is going

820
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 4: to Phoenix.

821
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 5: So probably in different markets.

822
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 4: I'm guessing the coach they're looking at them, yes, yeah,

823
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 4: probably probably all right, So the Boston Celtics lead assistant

824
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,320
Speaker 4: coach Charles Lee has agreed on a four year contract

825
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 4: to become the head coach of the Charlotte Hornets. Lee

826
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 4: will complete the Celtics playoff run, of course, before moving

827
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 4: over to join the Hornets on a full time basis.

828
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 4: Charles Lee an assistant name we have seen three years

829
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 4: whenever there's a coaching vacancy, Charles Lee's name is on

830
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 4: that list more times than not. If I was gonna

831
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 4: get an opportunity here in Charlotte, four year deal.

832
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 3: And going back even further, he was Mike Budenholzer's assistant coach,

833
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 3: and going back even further, I had no idea about this,

834
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 3: but he played college ball at Bucknell and then he

835
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,800
Speaker 3: went and played abroad a little bit, but he tried

836
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 3: to make it with the San Antonio Spurts, tried to play.

837
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 3: Mike Budenholzer was an assistant on on that bench for

838
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 3: a training campaign. He saw he saw Charleslee play plays basketball.

839
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 4: He's like, you're not good enough to play basketball, but man,

840
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 4: you can coach.

841
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 3: Well, he left and he came back. Yeah, and then

842
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:21,839
Speaker 3: he was under Budenholzer's wing for nine years with both

843
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 3: the Atlanta Hawks and the Milwaukee Bucks. So good luck,

844
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 3: good luck to Charles Lee in a tough situation, I

845
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 3: would say with Charlotte like tough, tough, I.

846
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 4: Mean, he's gonna have a bit of a runway. You

847
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:36,800
Speaker 4: would think you got Hugh ownership ownership in there. You

848
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 4: got new president of basketball operations Jeff Peterson, who you know,

849
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 4: leads this sort of team, who they have a relationship.

850
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 4: By the way, him and Lee with the with the Hawks,

851
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 4: actually they were together there. So there's that that makes

852
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 4: some sense.

853
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 3: You better get a runway guy. Nobody has a runway

854
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 3: it feels like in the NBA right now, But some

855
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 3: teams do allow their coach to get that, and like

856
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 3: Steve Ifford left this season, there was that one quote

857
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 3: that Steve Clifford said, we don't have the talent that

858
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 3: the other team has. That's why we lost. And so

859
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 3: they they you know, yes, I know a lot of

860
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 3: guys are hurt, obviously LaMelo, but the locker room ain't

861
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 3: bubbling with goodness, that's for sure.

862
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 4: No, no, no, but look they're twenty one and sixty one.

863
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 4: They're going to very likely have a top pick here

864
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 4: in the draft. Again, you want LaMelo Ball to be healthy.

865
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 4: You obviously got to be excited to what you saw

866
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 4: from Brandon Miller. You do have other players that you

867
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 4: could talk yourself into being like contributors like Mark Williams

868
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 4: and stuff like that. So you got something. But yeah,

869
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 4: I mean it's going to be Hopefully he's given two

870
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 4: or three years to put an identity in here and

871
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 4: given a chance at least I think he will.

872
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 5: I think he will hiring an assistant to me shouts

873
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 5: we're developing right now. They're not trying to win, so

874
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 5: I think he'll have a little bit of a runway

875
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 5: as well, especially considering the relationships he has. Like you mentioned,

876
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 5: he was an assistant with the Bucks on Bodenholzer's staff

877
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,919
Speaker 5: when Jeff Peterson was there, and as an executive sorry

878
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 5: on the Hawks staff. And Rick Schnall, an owner for

879
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,359
Speaker 5: the Hornets, was a minority owner for the Hawks as well.

880
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 5: So clearly they like this guy. Yeah, they'll give him

881
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,800
Speaker 5: a chance here. Next thing the Suns or the Hornets

882
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 5: need to do spend a lot of money on a

883
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,920
Speaker 5: training staff. You have to have LaMelo Ball healthy. The

884
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 5: guy can't be going out with an ankle injury every

885
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 5: two months. He has to be on the court next

886
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 5: season to see if him and Brandon Miller fit well together.

887
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 5: And then the big thing for Charles Lee is the

888
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 5: Hornets need some sort of an identity, like they got

889
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 5: to be a fast paced offensive team or a team

890
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,239
Speaker 5: that cares even a little bit on defense. They got

891
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:36,920
Speaker 5: to have something to hang their hat on. Even if

892
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,839
Speaker 5: they win twenty five games next season, you can have

893
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 5: a solid twenty five games twenty five win season if

894
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,399
Speaker 5: you look like a competent team that knows what their

895
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 5: approach is going forward. So we'll see what Charles Lee

896
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 5: is cooking up. Because the guy's been in the mix.

897
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 5: There are a lot of approaching jobs here, so you

898
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 5: think he must have some sort of plans he wants

899
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 5: to implement.

900
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, he almost got the Wizard's job in twenty twenty one.

901
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 4: I think he was a finalist for that gig, but

902
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 4: didn't get it ultimately and got overlooked a lot of times.

903
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 4: But he gets a chance here in Charlotte. In other news,

904
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 4: the NBA has suspended Bucks guard Patrick Beverly four games

905
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 4: without pay for throwing a basketball multiple times at Pacers

906
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 4: fans in the final minutes of Milwaukee's Game six elimination

907
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 4: loss to Indiana and after the game for inappropriate inappropriate

908
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 4: interaction with a reporter there from ESPN during media availability.

909
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 4: Four games for Pat bev for you know, sort of

910
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 4: for all of this, for what he did at the

911
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 4: end of the game with throwing the ball of fans,

912
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 4: and then how he just like so rudely interacted with

913
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 4: ESPN producer Melinda at Adams. Are you surprised at all

914
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 4: or thought it would be more severe than us or what?

915
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting. We brought up as soon as it

916
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 3: happened and thought he is going to get suspended. I

917
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,640
Speaker 3: think the other lock here is that he's not coming

918
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 3: back with the Milwaukee Bucks. That ain't gonna happen, even

919
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 3: even though from week to week we thought Patrick Beverly

920
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 3: is good for this if they need a defensive point guard,

921
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 3: they need attitude, but they don't need this. And apparently

922
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:10,959
Speaker 3: somehow Indianapolis Police is investigating this as well. I don't

923
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 3: know what that means exactly, because we saw what happened.

924
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 3: It's clear he just threw a ball twice.

925
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 4: Is someone filing charges against them? I mean, that's the

926
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 4: only thing I could think of.

927
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,799
Speaker 3: The look into Yeah, why they would look into it,

928
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I think they did that. I'm interested.

929
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 3: I'm there, and I don't know what's happening there. I

930
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 3: have no idea. Four games is that the right amount?

931
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 3: I guess it is the right amount. And it's definitely

932
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 3: a reputation based suspension as well. It's just Beverly.

933
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 4: What happens if he doesn't play.

934
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,439
Speaker 5: It's definitely possible that Patrick Beverly's done.

935
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 3: Yeah.

936
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 4: He's been on five teams in the past.

937
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 5: Three se Yeah, and every team that has him is like, oh,

938
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:51,439
Speaker 5: you know, we can do it a little better.

939
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:55,439
Speaker 4: So okay, if we could get another if he's done,

940
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 4: like he doesn't have to, well, I guess the league's

941
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 4: not getting there her money, right, great question, he's not

942
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,399
Speaker 4: getting his money because he wouldn't have a contract. Okay, yeah,

943
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 4: probably nothing happens. But and just with the whole postgame

944
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 4: media scrum thing, this was Beverly saying, you know, I'm

945
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 4: not taking your questions. Do you subscribe to my podcast? No,

946
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 4: then get out of here. Basically h said, get the

947
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 4: microphone out of my face and eventually asked her to

948
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 4: leave the interview circle. It's very weird apparently there before

949
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 4: It's like is he joking? Like is this just like

950
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 4: is he trying to be funny? Stupid? It's weird. He

951
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 4: did apologize to Adams. She you know tweeted this and

952
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,439
Speaker 4: said that he called and apologized for it. But if

953
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 4: he does sign, because he is an unrestricted free agent

954
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 4: this summer, it would cost him about ninety thousand dollars

955
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 4: if he signs on the you know, the minimum contract,

956
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 4: which is like three point three million, are projected to

957
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 4: be a sick minimum.

958
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 3: The minimum has changed since we started doing the show.

959
00:42:59,239 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 4: I don't.

960
00:42:59,520 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: I don't.

961
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 4: I'm seen his podcast numbers, but I'll go in on

962
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 4: a limb and say he's not making three point three

963
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 4: million off the pod.

964
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 5: He could make ninety k though.

965
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I believe that.

966
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 3: I guess he maybe knew that this is his last

967
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 3: basketball game in the NBA and said, I get my

968
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 3: numbers up, I'm going to get a story going about

969
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 3: my podcast. I get there's a possibility.

970
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:27,359
Speaker 4: He's been suspended before between summers. He oh is that

971
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 4: this is the second time this has happened to him.

972
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 4: Not not for throwing a ball or anything like that,

973
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 4: but he missed something. He missed a game at the

974
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 4: start of a season, and I can't tell you which team.

975
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 3: It was or what happened, but it was diving into

976
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:37,879
Speaker 3: Russell Westbrook's knee.

977
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 4: He was getting into it with somebody, Chris Paul. Did

978
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 4: you get into Chris Paul at the end of a

979
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 4: of a playoff game or an end of a series

980
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 4: or something there. I'm ninety nine percent sure this is

981
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,839
Speaker 4: the second time. If he is on a on a roster,

982
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 4: he won't be starting the season with that team. Plus

983
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 4: five points to you though, for the Instigator Draft, I

984
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,840
Speaker 4: had forgot. That's right by I had. That's really something

985
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 4: of a technicality this one visited.

986
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:10,840
Speaker 3: I was, I was wondering, so I went into the

987
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 3: stats yesterday. I mean, if you do get the five spots, you.

988
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 4: Gotta give it to me. It happened during the game.

989
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,760
Speaker 4: Did like the throwing of the ball.

990
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 3: You think you think the Business News Network should get

991
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 3: five points for that? That's your team name Beverly, Niang

992
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 3: and Nurkic. Those are your guys that would make give

993
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 3: you seven points. You would get the lead because I

994
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 3: went into mine because Tatum had a flagrant last night

995
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,160
Speaker 3: that he got charged with and he got hit with,

996
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 3: so one point for me. That's the Teapot exchange. That's

997
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 3: my team, Tatum Portis and Edwards, Anthony Edwards. They had

998
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 3: a tech rescinded. So I took that point off off

999
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,280
Speaker 3: my roster. And I think your team, the Dog's gone wild.

1000
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 3: That's a good team. Don't go barn Wagner. Just two points,

1001
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 3: I think technical so far? All right, so you would

1002
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:00,800
Speaker 3: be you would have seven.

1003
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 4: Counting the Beverly suspension.

1004
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 3: I would have five. That's we got a race, and

1005
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:06,719
Speaker 3: then just two right now for Trey.

1006
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 4: But he's got guys left, got guys left. I mean

1007
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 4: I'm starting to my guys are dropping, like five. I

1008
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:12,400
Speaker 4: guess I got niang.

1009
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:13,959
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's.

1010
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,799
Speaker 4: He did. Point all right, keep us updated on that.

1011
00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:21,799
Speaker 4: I'd totally forgotten about that. I didn't even know if

1012
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 4: it counted because it was like a weird one. Uh,

1013
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 4: final piece of news, bad news here for Knicks fans.

1014
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,799
Speaker 4: Og Ananobi he will miss Game three to night of

1015
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 4: the second round playoff series against the Pacers with that

1016
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 4: left hamstring strain. The Knicks have not announced the timetable

1017
00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 4: for his return, so it's not like, uh, he'll be

1018
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 4: back later in the series, he'll be back even this postseason,

1019
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 4: we don't know. Uh. Obviously a tough loss because when

1020
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 4: og plays, the Knicks are twenty six and five since

1021
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 4: they got him from the Raptors on December thirtieth. But

1022
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 4: he's officially out, and Brunton I think is questionable. My

1023
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 4: gud says that guy plays. But right, you after game

1024
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 4: two and after those two first games in Madison Square Guarden,

1025
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 4: you say, hey, lookay, Pacers are still in this. This

1026
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 4: is gonna be a series, and this helps their chances.

1027
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 4: Of course, tonight Pacers are winning this game.

1028
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 3: I don't think there's any doubt. With the way the

1029
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,239
Speaker 3: Knicks roster is breaking down right now, guy after guy

1030
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 3: after guy. They have won their every game that they've

1031
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 3: played at home this postseason. They do have great hometown teams.

1032
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 3: They are moving the ball like crazy. Obviously they led

1033
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 3: the league and passes this year the league, the league

1034
00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 3: and passes in the playoffs. Everybody's getting involved, and I

1035
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 3: think all that, even before you talk about Jalen Brunson,

1036
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 3: would make the Pacers the favorite. Considering Og is out

1037
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,399
Speaker 3: and just what he does defensively being everywhere, and who

1038
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 3: they're going to fill in that spot with. That's a problem,

1039
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 3: and that's why the Indian Pacers are seven and a

1040
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 3: half point favorites tonight. That's a big line for them

1041
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 3: to cover, but the recipe says they will.

1042
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 4: I do think, and this injury injury, I mean, it

1043
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 4: has an impact on Games three tonight, possibly the series.

1044
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 4: But of course, even like the Knicks moving forward, like

1045
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 4: he could be out. I have no idea if this's true,

1046
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:09,719
Speaker 4: but this is Og we're talking about, and it didn't

1047
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,359
Speaker 4: look good. He could be up for the postseason, could

1048
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 4: be another guy the Knicks lose, and that changes obviously

1049
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 4: their chances of you know, in Eastern Conference finals or

1050
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 4: moving on to the finals. Like he's that important, as

1051
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 4: the record illustrates and what he does defensively. And then

1052
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 4: oh yeah, the guy won them Game two, really with

1053
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 4: the twenty eight points or what twenty four in the

1054
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 4: first half, whatever it was twenty two, thank you. He

1055
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,600
Speaker 4: was huge. He turned in Kawi nineteen. So this is

1056
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 4: like it just keeps getting It's unbelieva. It's almost like

1057
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,359
Speaker 4: a running bit at this point that the Knicks keep

1058
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 4: pulling it out, but they just have to lose a

1059
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:40,799
Speaker 4: guy every time.

1060
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, two more injuries and it's the perfect Tom Thibodeau team.

1061
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 5: Just five starters, that's all we need.

1062
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 3: Yep.

1063
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 5: You know he thinks they have enough to win. But

1064
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 5: I'm with the attest this the Pacers. If the Pacers

1065
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 5: don't win Game three, bad news bears. He's gotta be

1066
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 5: a gentleman sweep if they don't win this one. And

1067
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 5: it's on Pascal Siakam to me, he's got a juicy

1068
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 5: match up here. They tried Josh Hart on Siakam when

1069
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:04,760
Speaker 5: Og went out in Game two, was able to score

1070
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:06,879
Speaker 5: over the top of him, but didn't have it really

1071
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 5: going in the fourth quarter. Siakam hasn't scored twenty or

1072
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 5: more since Game two.

1073
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:12,799
Speaker 4: Round one.

1074
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 5: He started hot against the Bucks thirty six and thirty seven.

1075
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 5: I think since then he's been in the teams, not

1076
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:23,480
Speaker 5: totally involved in the offense, a little bricky at times,

1077
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,480
Speaker 5: missed a couple of big free throws in the fourth quarter,

1078
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 5: and with Haliburton, you know, just as an eighteen and

1079
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 5: nine guy for the past five months. Basically, it's got

1080
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 5: to be on Siakam to put the team on his

1081
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:35,280
Speaker 5: back a little bit here, I think.

1082
00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 3: And I guess it's precious to Chew that he'll be

1083
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 3: playing against his old teammate. I guess that's who takes

1084
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 3: OG's spot. They don't really have many options. No, he

1085
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 3: comes into the starting lineup and can play a ton.

1086
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,600
Speaker 3: You don't want to see him shooting the ball all

1087
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 3: that much. That's what they have left, and Miles McBride

1088
00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:55,480
Speaker 3: will be coming off the bench. They literally have six

1089
00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:00,760
Speaker 3: guys that they want to play. What about Albert.

1090
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 5: He's got to play. He's got to play at least

1091
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 5: to spell some guys, and.

1092
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 3: He was great when they got him immediately. I mean

1093
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 3: he was good. Yeah, he can score. But now you

1094
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 3: gotta play defense against his Pacers team for forty eight minutes.

1095
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 3: But they are moving really really quickly.

1096
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, Sam needs to have a big, big game tonight

1097
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,279
Speaker 4: to uh to make this a little more interesting for sure,

1098
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 4: this series and Vitory.

1099
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 3: I think they're all going to score running a blowout tonight.

1100
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 4: I think so indye blowout.

1101
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 3: What you're saying, that's hard, it's hard to say that

1102
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 3: against New York actually keep fighting.

1103
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 5: The problem is more of the defense, Like, yeah, yeah,

1104
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 5: the Pacers are getting lit up.

1105
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it was part O G.

1106
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 5: But I mean I don't really think the Pacers are

1107
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 5: going to shut down the next now just because OG's

1108
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,479
Speaker 5: out that up. So they've given up on one hundred

1109
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 5: and twenty five points per one hundred possessions. Yeah, the

1110
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,760
Speaker 5: first two games. That's way too many points.

1111
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've somehow run into a scorching hot Dante de

1112
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 3: Vincenzo and now with the injuryed O G, who has

1113
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 3: been good. Yeah, plus a Galen like I would say

1114
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 3: that I think the Pacers should be favorite. Bottom line,

1115
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,759
Speaker 3: when you bring up those two guys, Devincenzo knows og

1116
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 3: but Jalen Broughnson can't be.

1117
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 4: No.

1118
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 3: But anyway, there, we'll see, we'll see.

1119
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 4: Okay, before we get to rapid fire. We forgot to

1120
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:15,399
Speaker 4: do it last week or we didn't do it last week,

1121
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:19,040

Speaker 4: Nice.

1208
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,760
Speaker 5: Love that he doesn't care about basketball, but ye spends

1209
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 5: his life making content.

1210
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: For It'll be fair get paid.

1211
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 5: But also brings an outsider's view of what sikos look

1212
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 5: like on the basketball side.

1213
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 4: Great pod.

1214
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 5: I'm constantly refreshing my Apple Pod app from nine am

1215
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 5: to ten am, waiting for the No Dunks guys to

1216
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 5: pop up, which assume means I'm in California.

1217
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 4: It makes sense, you know.

1218
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 5: About noon eastern nine am West coast time is when

1219
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 5: it drops. If I had friends, I feel like we

1220
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 5: would be friends. I went on playback for a guy

1221
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:01,880
Speaker 5: and got a chuckle from you guys for a comment

1222
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 5: I wrote, it was like having my own highlight.

1223
00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:04,439
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1224
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 5: I don't have a lot going on, but I do

1225
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 5: love basketball and love the content you guys send out,

1226
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 5: and I love that it's live and the random rabbit

1227
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:16,399
Speaker 5: trailers you guys go on are freaking hilarious. The one

1228
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 5: thing I will say is there's one person on the

1229
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 5: pod I do not care for. I won't state it

1230
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 5: here and let you guys guess, but for reals, I

1231
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 5: listen to the pod every day and tell the one

1232
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 5: guy I know about it all the time.

1233
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,040
Speaker 4: Damn, it's a good review. Five stars, Thank you, Salutia.

1234
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 4: But also it might tear us apart that comment and

1250
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 4: According to collect Media, Sell the Bee's is set to

Speaker 4: The prices range from like twenty thousand dollars again fixed

1257
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:56,200
Speaker 4: price for one of these jerseys, I believe like a

1258
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 4: Curry to five hundred dollars. I think you can get

1259
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:01,960
Speaker 4: a Denny Avdia for five hundred dollars. I did take

1260
00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:05,719
Speaker 4: a quick look at it. So my question is, and

1261
00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 4: you don't need to really do jerseys or sports even

1262
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:10,440
Speaker 4: if you don't want to, but what piece of memorabilia

1263
00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:12,960
Speaker 4: would you pay top dollar for?

1264
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 3: That's quite the range that you said that. I didn't

1265
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,600
Speaker 3: realize it was from five hundred bucks to twenty grand.

1266
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:22,160
Speaker 3: It's like trying to buy a Paranike shoes like that's

1267
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 3: this shoes thing that the NBA is trying to get into.

1268
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 3: I mean, the whole auctioning thing. Anyways, thanks to change,

1269
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 3: mine is a Connor Bidard hockey card. Why would I

1270
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 3: want that? Well, I won an NCAA tournament this path well, yeah,

1271
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 3: I wasn't really in the tournament. I just wanted to pool,

1272
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:45,800
Speaker 3: and so I want I won a cards like I

1273
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 3: don't know, twenty packs that get sent to me. And

1274
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 3: my man Fernando said, you're gonna get a Connor Bodard

1275
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:53,640
Speaker 3: card in there. It's probably gonna be worth like three

1276
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 3: hundred dollars something that well, that is that is Fernando,

1277
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 3: Are you are you kidding me? That's how much it's worth.

1278
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 3: I looked it up. It was worth three hundred bucks.

1279
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 4: Have you. I didn't get it though, I didn't get it.

1280
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:05,960
Speaker 3: I didn't get it. That's that's why I want one.

1281
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 3: What I did get, I did get a very artistic

1282
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:12,440
Speaker 3: Connor Bodard call a card. It's hard to say Connor

1283
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 3: Bodard card. Right now where he is, he's dressed in

1284
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 3: this what would you call this arment?

1285
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:20,440
Speaker 4: Sergeant Pepper.

1286
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:22,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy.

1287
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, it came over on the Mayflower.

1288
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:26,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. So I don't think that one's worth three hundred buck.

1289
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:31,400
Speaker 3: And then there's another split card with him and Leo Carlson.

1290
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 3: But I don't think that one's worth three hundred bucks.

1291
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 3: But he's a rook obviously a top pick. So I'm

1292
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 3: looking for one of those.

1293
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 4: Okay, what about you.

1294
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:41,160
Speaker 5: I do love the look of a framed jersey, Like

1295
00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:43,080
Speaker 5: I think they look really cool when people have it,

1296
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:44,919
Speaker 5: you know, like my man came, I got.

1297
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 4: My cool jerseys hanging up.

1298
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 5: So I want Vin Diesels one of Vin Diesel's Game

1299
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 5: warn tank tops from the Fast and Furious franchise. Frame

1300
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 5: it up the same way, man, if you would throw

1301
00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 5: in the necklace.

1302
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:56,920
Speaker 4: He's always wearing the process.

1303
00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of the neck I think. Yeah, other

1304
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 1: is just a tank.

1305
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,440
Speaker 5: I could easily just frame a white tank top that's

1306
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 5: from Fast five.

1307
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, remember that. We have to believe you. Okay, good, good.

00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:26,360
Speaker 2: it looks badass.

1315
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:27,480
Speaker 1: Put it in a case.

1316
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:30,600
Speaker 2: Stick it somewhere here in the classic factory.

1317
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 4: Oh.

1318
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:32,919

00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 4: I could see you rocking that.

1325
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:43,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you.

1326
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 5: It's a little surprising that top hats have never had

1327
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 5: like a minor research.

1328
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:48,919
Speaker 1: Exactly right.

1329
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,440
Speaker 5: You've seen people in driving caps. Fedora's had a big

1330
00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:53,000
Speaker 5: time moment.

1331
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:54,080

Speaker 3: not a Yeah.

1334
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:02,040
Speaker 4: It was weird, very very strange. So weird people aren't

1335
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 4: wearing top hats.

1336
01:00:02,960 --> 01:00:06,640

01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:08,320
Speaker 4: Right, that's a great point.

1339
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's been forty thirty years, if you're being generous.

1340
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, at least has any NBA player showed up rocking

1341
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:18,760
Speaker 4: a top hat like these guys wear the craziest crap,

1342
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 4: like a great point. I can't picture one. Maybe somebody

1343
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 4: like Halliburton should show up in a top hat. The

1344
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,040
Speaker 4: things he's wearing. He's got an old time look. Yeah, yeah,

1345
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 4: do it, top hat? Tyrace do it tonight?

1346
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 3: Has a bowler done it? They are bowler.

1347
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:35,200
Speaker 1: There's a bowler hat and there's a top hat.

1348
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1349
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,320
Speaker 1: I'm more interested in the bowler. But the top hat, chuir,

1350
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 1: why not?

1351
01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, yeah, it's a little more rounded. Yeah a

1352
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,520
Speaker 3: bowler Yeah yeah, come on, Belmo.

1353
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 4: Next one. Austin Rivers went viral this week when he

1354
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 4: claimed during an appearance on the Pat McAfee show that

1355
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 4: thirty current NBA players could play in the NFL and

1356
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:54,439
Speaker 4: that zero current NFL players could play in the NBA.

1357
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:58,640
Speaker 4: That statement made a lot of football players quite mad,

1358
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,200
Speaker 4: including former star JJ, who tweeted to Austin basically to

1359
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 4: the world quote, you don't got a job in either,

1360
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 4: right now, go ahead and try it, boom roast it.

1361
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 4: But I want to know, if you could be a

1362
01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 4: pro athlete today, which sport would you choose?

1363
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:20,880
Speaker 3: Well, I just I just mentioned Jason Belmonte's name of bowling,

1364
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 3: and not that I don't want to be a bowler,

1365
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:27,760
Speaker 3: but he became the best, and then he became extremely popular.

1366
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 3: In a similar way, I want to jump on pickleball

1367
01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 3: while it's still it's still growing obviously a lot, but

1368
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 3: I want to get I'm going to become a pickleball

1369
01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:39,320
Speaker 3: superstar while the growth of the sport happens. And I

1370
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 3: also want to do it because selfishly, it hasn't been

1371
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 3: working for me as a sport. I signed up for

1372
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 3: six lessons, my lessons, Why do I need lessons? And

1373
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 3: then I went there and everybody is a lot older

1374
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:54,440
Speaker 3: than me, and these lessons we're just in the kitchen.

1375
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 3: We're not really moving much. And I went to one

1376
01:01:57,080 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 3: and then and then it's like I got other things

1377
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,960
Speaker 3: to do. Never went back. I went to one pickle ball.

1378
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 3: I should have gone back, but it's like I wasn't

1379
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 3: having fun. It was just it was also just a

1380
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 3: bad time. Number one, number two, it's supposed to I

1381
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:14,440
Speaker 3: was literally the most athletic person out there, and I

1382
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:17,320
Speaker 3: ain't that. I ain't a super super athlete right now,

1383
01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 3: but I was describing pickleball. Yeah, but if you're playing

1384
01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 3: singles and pickleball, that's hard.

1385
01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:23,720
Speaker 1: It's hard.

1386
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 3: It's hard. You have a lot of ground to cover. Yeah,

1387
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 3: so I'm yeah describing it because old people play it,

1388
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:30,560

1393
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 2: the most advanced part of the game, right it's dinking.

1394
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:50,360
Speaker 2: Like when you get down to drinking, that's when ship

1395
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 2: gets serious, right Like, But most of the time, it's

1396
01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 2: just like I'm whacking a ball back and forth on

1397
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 2: a small tennis court.

1398
01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 3: That's what I want. I just want to whack it.

1399
01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: Well, play with me, because that's how I played less

Speaker 5: Every once in a while, I go pitch the three

1406
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:22,439
Speaker 5: batters eat some seeds. The whole rest of the time,

1407
01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 5: all of them look like scumbags.

1408
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:25,480

Speaker 3: Yeah, you never have to run unless there's a bench brawl.

1417
01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 3: Then you run. They're like, man, I'm tired.

Speaker 2: I've been on a track twice, and not an F

1423
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:13,960
Speaker 2: one car obviously, but basically a glorified go kart, you know,

1424
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:18,280
Speaker 2: with you know, force five speed or whatever, slamming that clutch.

1425
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:23,120
Speaker 2: There is nothing more fun than that, literally, nothing more fun, even.

1428
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:31,200

1429
01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:31,920

Speaker 4: Okay, great answers, guys, would be awesome. Final one. Believe

1431
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 4: it or not, The twenty twenty four NBA Draft Lottery

1432
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 4: will be held this Sunday, May twelfth, at three pm

1433
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:46,360
Speaker 4: Eastern on ABC. That's right, Sunday. This is usually Tuesday

1434
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 4: night thing, but we're doing it on Sunday, which is

1435
01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 4: Mother's Day. So two teams have the best odds for

1436
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 4: the number one pick. It's the Pistons and it's the Wizards.

1437
01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 4: They got fourteen percent chance each, and then the team's

1438
01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:01,080
Speaker 4: following them are pretty close to that as well. But

1439
01:05:01,520 --> 01:05:04,360
Speaker 4: why wait until Mother's Day? Guys, tell me who is

1440
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:08,280
Speaker 4: going to win the twenty twenty four draft lottery.

1441
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,439
Speaker 3: Past I kind of want the Washington Wizards to win,

1442
01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:16,040
Speaker 3: mostly because I am interested to see the dynamic between

1443
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 3: a guy who is a number one pick and Jordan

1444
01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 3: Poole and Kyle Kuzma, who kind of want to be

1445
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 3: number one players. How is that going to be? How's

1446
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:27,920
Speaker 3: that going to play out? That's what's interesting about that

1447
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:29,960
Speaker 3: team to me. And to just help that team out

1448
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:31,880
Speaker 3: because I mentioned those guys, those are the one two

1449
01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 3: and Danny Avdia who had a good year, those are

1450
01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 3: their top three. They need some serious help. It's the

1451
01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:40,040
Speaker 3: capital city of this country. Get better, just get better.

1452
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,560
Speaker 4: They probably will win it too, because you know, by

1453
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 4: all accounts, this is not like, oh, there's a sure

1454
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,960
Speaker 4: fire number one franchise guy and they seem to win

1455
01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 4: the number one pick. When that's the situation, Kwame comes

1456
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:56,480
Speaker 4: to mind. John Wall was a pretty big star. John

1457
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 4: Wall was pretty good. That's a good one. Ye. Did

1458
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 4: they have nervous never nervous purpose? They did? Ye? Number

1459
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,120
Speaker 4: one pick? Yeah, anyway, they probably will win it. That's

1460
01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:04,920
Speaker 4: my point. Okay, Wizards.

1461
01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 5: It definitely feels like for a team that absolutely needs

1462
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,120
Speaker 5: a number one start getting the number one pick in

1463
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 5: a role player draft.

1464
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 4: That's what I mean. I would be perfectly Wizards. Yeah, okay,

1465
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 4: so your one Zards? What about you, Trey?

1466
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 5: They only have a seven and a half percent chance

1467
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:21,040
Speaker 5: of winning the draft lottery, But it's on Mother's Day,

1468
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 5: So I'm going with the mamphis Grizzlies.

1469
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 4: Okay, Wow, that would be huge to them. Oh man,

1470
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 4: we think they'll all right. We could use an awesome

1471
01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:34,680
Speaker 4: role player. Yeah, you use a wing Matus Bozellis. Okay,

1472
01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,400
Speaker 4: we got the Zards and we got the Grizzlies. JD,

1473
01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:38,680
Speaker 4: who's winning the draft lottery.

1474
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:41,480
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a Mother's Day miracle. Light the beam.

1475
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 1: It's going to the Kings.

1476
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 4: Whoa, whoa, whoa.

1477
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:46,280
Speaker 2: They have barely any chance I think is less than

1478
01:06:46,400 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 2: what is three percent chance?

1479
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 4: It's okay, it happened before, it's happened before.

1480
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen on Sunday.

1481
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 4: So we're gonna light the beam others.

1482
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:58,120
Speaker 1: Do you think they would light the beam if they

1483
01:06:58,160 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 1: got the number one?

1484
01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:03,600
Speaker 4: Yeah they should, Yeah, think oh that might that'd be

1485
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 4: the lowest overge. That'd be the lowest Wow. JD's calling

1486
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 4: it shot. I don't know who's gonna win. I'll leave

1491
01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 3: I saw those percentages that you shared from I guess

1492
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 3: it was a Raptors account that they're basically can have

1493
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 3: a number one, two, three, or four equal amount of It's.

1494
