Of course, we'll talk about 28 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: last night's games, but that's some interesting news when it 29 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: comes to the NBA All Star Game. Finally, Yeah, it's 30 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: February nineteenth, and we are not going to know the 31 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: All Star rosters until that very Yes, that's right. We 32 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: are finally getting a schoolyard pick them the team captains, 33 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: which is probably gonna be Lebron and Yannis, though I 34 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: guess it could still be Kadi. They will make their 35 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: picks in a live televised pregame segment shortly before the 36 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: game begins in Salt Lake City, And we talked about 37 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: it a little bit last night on our watch party 38 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: on playback, But any more thoughts on this. You were 39 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: a fan, it feels like most people are like, yeah, 40 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: this is this is a nice little change. 41 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: We've been talking about this forever. They've had five years 42 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 2: of this, you know, slow getting used to this recorded 43 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 2: segment instead just getting comfortable with guys being picked last. Okay, 44 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: so they've had this five year trial run. Now we're ready. 45 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 2: Now we're ready to do it live. Everybody feels comfortable. 46 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 2: No one's worried about being picked last. So everything's fine. 47 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: This is what it's all supposed to be. This is 48 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 2: what it was meant to be, right, I don't know. 49 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 4: I'm nervous. These teams don't have it chance to practice 50 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 4: together before they play. It's gonna be a sloppy game 51 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 4: out there. No, this is awesome, of course. I mean, 52 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 4: as soon as they announced that the All Star Draft 53 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 4: was happening, the natural reaction was why don't you do 54 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 4: it live? Why don't you do it right before the game? 55 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 4: Now they're doing it right before the game. Show should 56 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 4: be exciting to see how they handle everything from you know, 57 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 4: the back and forth that we're kind of used to 58 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 4: and this draft between Lebron and whoever is number two 59 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 4: in voting, always a little bit of different chemistry there. 60 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 4: Who's gonna if they're gonna have a chance to like 61 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 4: correspond with each other, And of course huge question is 62 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 4: what are they gonna do about the last pick, because 63 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 4: just be two sad. 64 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 2: Little guys standing over there. 65 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 4: Sure they're two of the twenty four best players in 66 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 4: the league, but you don't want to be twenty third 67 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 4: or twenty fourth. 68 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. A couple other questions sort of along what you're saying. Yeah, 69 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: who's who's hosting it? It's on TNT, So is it 70 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: just Ernie Johnson as the host? Do we get commentary 71 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: still from the inside crew? Like are Chuck and Shaq 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: and Kenny? Like are they chiming in? Who is miked 73 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: in all of this? Is it just the captains all 74 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: the players? I'd probably be a little crazy, but I 75 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 1: can't wait for this. This is what we wanted. Line 76 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: them up, you know, have the jerseys ready and you 77 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: you you should be fun. There might be trades happen 78 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: right then and there. We've seen that happen, even in 79 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: the pre recorded segment where they would do it a 80 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: couple days before. But yeah, this is this is great, 81 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: nice little, nice little twist here, nice litle tweak. 82 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 2: And I wonder if there's a comfort level considering all 83 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 2: three of the guys who could be captains have done 84 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 2: it before, so there's a little talk with Hey, Kdi, 85 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: do you mind doing it live if you're picked, or 86 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: Hey Yannis, do you mind doing it live? Because that 87 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: was the concern that that they would hurt feelings or 88 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: whatever was the concern about these potential captains. It was, 89 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: you know, kind of unfounded to begin with. But now 90 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 2: they're doing I do wonder about jersey sales, like going 91 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 2: into Friday, Saturday, Sunday night, is Julius Randall gonna have 92 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: a Team Durant jersey for sale, Like they missed that window. 93 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 2: They're not going to sell bo about. 94 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: Selling them all that much because they're ugly first off. 95 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: And yeah, this whole concept of like it's not even 96 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: East or West, it's it's whoever the captain is. But 97 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: that's not on the jersey either, you know what I mean. 98 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: It doesn't say team Lebron, right, that doesn't say team 99 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: just the color. So no, it's a good point. I 100 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 1: do love that people are. 101 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 2: Maybe they'll do both, because what are they gonna do. 102 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: How are they gonna make the jerseys? Oh my god? 103 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: When they'll probably just make them an advance. I would assume. 104 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: They'll make both and maybe they'll sell both, Like who 105 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: cares if US was wearing a white jersey. 106 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: They should sign them and sell them for charity, is 107 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: what they should do. Be cool, even if the ones 108 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: they don't plan, like why not? 109 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 2: Why not? 110 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 4: I hope they do. I hope they do jazz inspired 111 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 4: jerseys because between the Mountains and the Gradient ones they wore, 112 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 4: it's like two cool jazz jerseys. So maybe they'll do 113 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 4: something along those lines with you know, the right team 114 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 4: name on it. I also hope we see somebody hiding 115 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 4: behind another player, like, oh, don't pick me, don't take me. 116 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 4: So I don't know who that would be. Like I 117 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 4: think Kyrie probably wants to be on the Browns team, 118 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 4: but ito'ld be funny because they got like a relationship. 119 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 4: So I don't know, Like if there are teammates and 120 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 4: one teammate is there, you're like, ooh, I don't want 121 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 4: to be on that team because I want to be 122 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 4: my team. 123 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah, I know a ways. 124 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 4: I want to see somebody hide behind somebody else. 125 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: Will they be on the floor, Will it be on 126 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: that stage that they make it All Star weekend? Will 127 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: even the other players be out there? 128 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 2: Right? 129 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: I guess it's impossible that they weren't but like that'd 130 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: be silly if you're gonna go live. And yeah, as 131 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: for the final. 132 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: Two, definitely possible that they're not there, just Thur in 133 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 2: the back. Yeah, that would be really it would be 134 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: weird because but yeah, it's possible. 135 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: Because they could be looking at a board and then okay, 136 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: I'll take uh, you know, I'll take Lowry Market and 137 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: then he comes out on stage and then oh, that's true. 138 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: That's they could do it that way. I hope they're 139 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: all there just like not knowing what to do with 140 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: their hands and like their hands are in their pockets 141 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: and maybe dribbling a basketball, just waiting because I guess 142 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: they have to make it like it's gotta be like 143 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty minutes, right, it can't be just like 144 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: bang bang bang bang bang bang bang. Let's go. 145 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: Oh no, they'll pull it off. They'll drag it out 146 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: to a half hour. We see the NBA Draft lottery, 147 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: bang bang bang, thirteen numbers picked from a hat that 148 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 2: takes half an hour. Picking twenty four players will take 149 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: half an hour. 150 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: No, I hope they do like the NBA Draft where 151 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: the captains have to like awkwardly shake hands and old 152 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: jerseys put a cap on them. 153 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, get full draft mode. 154 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: That's a good idea. 155 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: So many options with this, but yeah, for the most part, 156 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: people are excited. That's for the final two. Like you're 157 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: a little worried. I guess, like who's going to be last? 158 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: Oh, who's worried? Cares? 159 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: The league was worried for a long time for sure. 160 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: That has been the hiccup. That has been the hesitancy. 161 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: Could they feelings, could they make them shoot for it 162 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: or something? Okay?

He came up with the idea. Yeah, we've 169 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: what we were saying it literally the first year they 170 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: decided to do captains, Like, why aren't they doing it? 171 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: Live children in the nineteen forties came up that's how 172 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 2: you picked teams. 173 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I do honestly, I guess in his defense, 174 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: I do feel like maybe lebron Katie, the other captains 175 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: that have been there, maybe they were like, we don't 176 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: want to jump on a zoom call on Thursday morning 177 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: to make these seems like probably they were, Well, they're 178 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: just like we don't want to do this, and it's 179 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: like it's not as fun now after doing it four 180 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: or five years, which is true. It's just become the 181 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: same sort of repetitive thing. Let's just do it live. 182 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: It's good on them and the Players Association that has 183 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: to sign off on these things. Thanks guys. All right, 184 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: let's get into a little what you got? 185 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 4: What's you good? 186 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? What you got there? Little what you got? Based 187 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: off of last night's games, first one, bam Adebayo thirty 188 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: points as the Heat rallied past the Celtics ninety eight 189 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: ninety five. You may have caught it on our NBA 190 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: watch party on playback May. We had a lot of 191 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: close games. Task was a maestro last night with the 192 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: remote control clicking back and forth between free throws and 193 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: timeouts and the games are ending. It was amazing. Oh 194 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: i oh man, so bam awesome game. He is playing 195 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: phenomenal basketball right now for the Miami Heat. We also 196 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: had Julius Randall scoring thirty six points. He hit eight 197 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: threes as the Knicks they stopped Donovan Mitchell and the 198 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: Cavs one O five one oh three? Was Mitchell fouled 199 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: at the end there by who was it? Hartenstein? Verticality? 200 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: And then the arms came down but no call and 201 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,199 Speaker 1: Mitchell went to the floor. We were all worried that 202 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: he was super injured. I don't think he is. But anyway, 203 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: the question off of Bam and Randall having monster games 204 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: and the All Star team announcement around the corner when 205 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 1: it comes to the reserves next week, who is more 206 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: likely to be an East All Star between these two 207 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: forwards in the East here, Bam at a Bio or 208 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: Julius Randall. Who you got? 209 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 2: It's definitely Bam more likely, okay, than Julius Randall. I 210 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,199 Speaker 2: think with the Knicks, Jalen Brunson is going to get 211 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 2: credit for that turnaround from last year to this year. 212 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 2: I think he'll get more votes amongst the coaches when 213 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: we're talking about the reserves than Julius Randall. As far 214 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 2: as Bam goes a huge, huge season for him, I 215 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 2: think it's going a little under the radar in terms 216 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: of the casual fan and so I don't think he'll 217 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 2: necessarily be a lock because it is sort of under 218 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 2: the radar because coaches will still see Jimmy Butler on 219 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: that roster. He has played less games, there's no doubt. 220 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 2: But I do think that's the guy they generally game 221 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 2: plan for, and he'll get some votes for you over Bam. 222 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: At a bio they could split votes. But the Heat 223 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 2: are third on defense and twenty eighth on offense. That's 224 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 2: probably the biggest spread in NBA history twenty five ranking spots. 225 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: There is a reason for that, though it's Bam. He 226 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 2: is phenomenal, but I'm not sure if the coaches are 227 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 2: catching up with the games played with the Jimmy Butler 228 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: situation and necessarily with the d rather than who they 229 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 2: game plan for. So I don't think it's a lock, 230 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 2: is all I'm saying, especially that they've come on late 231 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: to the coaches. You know, they're usually a year behind, 232 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 2: and this is even though they've come on recently. They're 233 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: always weeks behind at at the very least. So Bam 234 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: over Julius though, I think he's got a far better chance. 235 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: Okay, would you agree with that? 236 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, But I think Bam is a complete lock. I 237 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 4: think he's going to make the team for sure, Jimmy Butler, 238 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 4: like per minute, has been the best player for the Heat, 239 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 4: but Bam has played an extra ten games and he 240 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:43,719 Speaker 4: is scoring as many points as Jimmy Butler, as he's 241 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: obviously leading the team in rebounding, and then he brings 242 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 4: it defensively as well. Certainly Boston coaches will be voting 243 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 4: Bam at a baio into the All Star Game. After 244 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 4: last night fourth quarter nine points, eight rebounds, Miami went 245 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 4: on a fifteen to ohero run in the fourth quarter. 246 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 4: They held the Celtics to thirteen points in the fourth 247 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 4: and you know, a big part of it was Bam 248 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 4: grabbing the ball off the glass and bringing it up 249 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 4: and just getting into the lane and scoring. He obviously 250 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 4: hit the big jumper to really ice things for the 251 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 4: Heat as well. That was a takeover game for Bam 252 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 4: out of Bio, which we've seen a lot from Jimmy 253 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 4: Butler this season, but Bam has been doing it as 254 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 4: well and the Heat is starting to put wins together. Also, 255 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 4: I was listening to Zach Lowe's podcast, He's got Bam 256 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 4: out of Bio as a lock has neither of Randall 257 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 4: and Brunson on his All Star Game and that guy's 258 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 4: pretty influential. So if Zach Low is already saying the 259 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 4: BAM's in there and the Knicks guys are on the 260 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 4: outside looking in, I kind of think that will happen. 261 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 4: I think Randal, though, has a strong possibility of making it. 262 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 4: Since December one, the guy's averaging twenty seven a game, 263 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 4: thirteen rebounds, four assists, shooting forty five and thirty five 264 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 4: from the field. He has been instrumental in the Knicks 265 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 4: turnaround as well, And if you're looking at like his 266 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 4: career progression, it's like all NBA bad season giving thumbs 267 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 4: downs to the fan. Now at least knocking on the 268 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 4: door of an All Star appearance, so he can get 269 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 4: a little bit of credit as well. But I think 270 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 4: BAM's two way play, and you know, he does have 271 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 4: the respect of the coaches already at this point, having 272 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 4: made a couple of All Star teams, haven't finished high 273 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 4: in Defensive Player of the Year voting. I think he's 274 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 4: definitely going to make it. 275 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: Well just one. I mean, he's only made it once 276 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: in his career, and that's the kind of the thing 277 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 2: that he may just get overlooked. He's a kind of 278 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: player that gets overlooked. Is he the most important player 279 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 2: on the Heat thus far? Probably yeah, because he's played 280 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: in ten more games. But I just wonder what the 281 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: coaches do. We're giving a lot of credit to the 282 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 2: coaches and their assistant coaches, who how much time are 283 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 2: they going to put into this. I think they'll just 284 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: look at the standings. It all sort of depends on 285 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: how many players they give to the Celtics and the 286 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 2: Sixers and the Bucks, if they sneak in a second 287 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 2: one and if not, if they don't give Brook Lopez 288 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: a nod, if they don't give James Harden a nod, 289 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: then obviously the Knicks and Heat have a good shot 290 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: at getting one. Yeah. 291 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: Well, I disagree with Zach Low. I think a New 292 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: York Knicks player is going to make this team, maybe 293 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: both of them, even in Jillen Brunson and Julius Randall. 294 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: I feel like it comes down to maybe two or 295 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: three spots for the for these four players Bam, Julius Randall, 296 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: and then Siakam and DeRozan. I think of those four guys, 297 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 1: they are gonna be like sort of fighting for those again, 298 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: maybe maybe two maybe three spots on the All Star reserves. 299 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: We find out the starters on Thursday, by the way, 300 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: and then on Friday's drop podcast, we're gonna make our 301 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: first pass at our actual picks when it comes to 302 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: the All Star teams in the reserves. But yeah, it's 303 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: it's a it's tight between those. I mean, I tweeted 304 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago, I'm getting terrified that is not 305 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: gonna make it. Ah, he's gonna make it. He's gonna 306 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: make He's gonna make it. 307 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 2: Is he not? 308 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: The way Randall's been playing and Bam like, you'd have 309 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: to have those guys above him right now because of 310 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: the team's record and the Raptor's stinking. So I don't 311 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: think it's a lock. And then DeRozan is an interesting part, 312 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: being like a fourteen year vet and having the respect 313 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: of the coaches that pick these things. It's gonna be tight. 314 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: It's gonna be some debates on Friday's Drop pike, but 315 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: I agree. But I agree with you guys that I 316 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: if I'm ranking them, I have Bam just ahead of 317 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: Julius Randall right now. But a part of it is 318 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: because I believe Jalen Brunson is more likely to make 319 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: it than Jimmy Butler. So it gets sounded like that 320 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: two guys on a middle of the pack team. 321 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I highly doubt the middle of the 322 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: pack team is gonna get two guys. I just just 323 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 2: doubt it because there's so many great players. 324 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 325 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: I think the Celtics are probably the only team that's 326 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 2: locked in with two all stars and the Nets the 327 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: Nets wise I missed. 328 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yep, good call. All right, Well our next one. Jokic. 329 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: He returned last night for the Nuggets triple double holl 330 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: Hum game winner. A little floater there puts the Nuggets 331 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 1: ahead of the Pelicans ninety nine ninety. This guy's just unbelievable. 332 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: And then Kuzma hit some free throws late, maybe controversial 333 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: call lifted the Wizards over the Mavericks one six, despite 334 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: Luka Dncch's forty one points. So what was the more 335 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: entertaining finish, Nugs Pills or whiz MAVs. What you guys? 336 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 4: This is an easy question. Okay, do you like basketball 337 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 4: shots or do you like miss free throws? Because if 338 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 4: you like basketball shots, the answer is nugs pells. If 339 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 4: you like miss free throws, though, withs Mavericks that's the 340 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 4: way to go. I don't think I've ever seen a 341 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 4: guy rip his jersey like Luka Doncic Jit did and 342 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 4: then go on to keep playing in the rip jersey. 343 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 4: That was pretty amazing. Yeah, but that was pretty weird. 344 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 4: He's going with the dangly jersey there. But I think, yeah, 345 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 4: I think Nuggets Pelicans is the one because the Pelicans 346 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 4: came back in this game with Jose Alvarado just getting 347 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 4: in the lane every single time and shooting crazy floaters 348 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 4: over the top of the Nuggets defense. He had fourteen 349 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 4: points in thirteen minutes to help the Pelicans take the lead. 350 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 4: But then on the other end, the Nuggets went to 351 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 4: the Murray Jokic pick and roll. Murray drew a couple 352 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 4: of guys, gets it to Jokic for like a seven 353 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 4: foot floater, just dinks it in. Yeah, no big deal, yawn. Afterward, 354 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 4: they were watching it on playback, goes wait, he just 355 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 4: had a hook shot, right. 356 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: I was a second screen going, I'm looking at stats, 357 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: like where are these other games going? And then it's 358 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: like I look back and it's like, oh, they're up. 359 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: Nobody had said anything like what happened? And then I 360 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: see in the play by player like you'll get six. Yeah, okay, 361 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: that's what he does. 362 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 2: It was literally and it ended up being the game 363 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 2: winning shot. No one reacted because that's what he does, 364 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: and it was a wide open, little push shot. It's 365 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 2: true there was more basketball in that game, but way 366 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 2: more drama in the other. I made this question, if 367 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 2: you like complaining, if you like fouls, then you choose 368 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: the other game. The MAVs are at a seemingly a 369 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 2: bit of a breaking point. There are some worries. I 370 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: think there two weeks from the trade deadline. The way 371 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 2: they guard is a problem, the way they lack anybody 372 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: on the perimeter to really slow anybody down, and then 373 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 2: the fouls all happen, and that's what happened in this game. 374 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 2: Guys were so frustrated. Luca Ripping gets a tech, same 375 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 2: with Jason Kidd, who doesn't usually get tech fouls. They're frustrated. 376 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 2: The personnel change up within the team is it's kind 377 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 2: of hard to find one. Maybe it's Josh Green going 378 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 2: in for Tim Hardaway. Josh Green plays ridiculously hard. They 379 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: need somebody on the perimeter and I think that would help. 380 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: But it's probably good. There's probably gonna be some sort 381 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 2: of trade. But uh, it's an up and down team 382 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 2: and they kind of flow with Luka Dancic, and when 383 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 2: Luca's complaining the rest of them are going to be complaining. 384 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 2: I understand he's complaining about the Kyle Kuzma's slight, slight 385 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 2: push out of bounds and they went and reviewed it, 386 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 2: but I guess it was a foul. And hey, Delon 387 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: Wright stepped up and made a nice little defensive play 388 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: there to take away Spencer Dinwood. 389 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: After the MAVs ran the same exact play. 390 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: That's what they run. We have Luca the ball. 391 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: He's like, I think I know what they're doing. We 392 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: just saw the second ago. Let's try it. Great steal 393 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: from him. Yeah, well we had some some some fireworks. 394 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: I guess you want to call it. After the game too, 395 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: with the the Wizards and MAVs, Spencer didwin, he said 396 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 1: after the loss, talking about the Whiz. For them, it's 397 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: a showcase. They're over there trying to get paid, not 398 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 1: trying to play winning basketball for a team that has 399 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: real lasts and has an MVP went to the conference 400 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: finals last year. We have to be better. To a man, 401 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: I like that Spencer Dinwiddie got the memo that it's 402 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: NBA Rivals Week. Yeah, he's right, right, I like that. Well, Kuzma, 403 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: pretty damn funny retweet quote tweet. The funny thing is 404 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: they don't play winning basketball. And then you know a 405 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: bunch of like haha emojis and clown emojis and all that. 406 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: And you have to picture Kuzma sending that quote tweet 407 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: while he was wearing his pregame fit, because I think 408 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: it makes it ten times funnier. I believe we have 409 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: a photo so him just like you know, replying to 410 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,120 Speaker 1: Dinwody on Twitter, barely being able to see his phone 411 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 1: in the crazy outfit he had on less which look, 412 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: this might challenge the crazy pink sweater for all I know. 413 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 4: But yeah, his chest to me, looked like a face 414 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 4: when I first saw it. I don't know why his tattoos. 415 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 4: His tattoo is just like an eyes and nose in 416 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: the mouth. But man, well look, yeah, I guess you know. 417 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 4: There was a lot of talk at the trade deadline 418 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 4: last year that the Wizards really didn't like Spencer Dinwiddie. 419 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 4: It's true apparently, but who knows. I mean, tough call. 420 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 4: On Luca for sure, but he bodied him out of 421 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 4: bounds and he'd been complaining to the reps for you know, 422 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 4: the entirety of the fourth quarter, so they took it 423 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 4: out on him. And you know, maybe a good foul 424 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 4: because I saw Kyle Kuzma hit that exact same shot 425 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 4: against the Bulls to beat him. So Kuzma, Kuzma's the 426 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 4: face of the franchise now for the Washington Wizards. 427 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: Takes a franchise. You can't see his face. 428 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 4: Mala klaba franchise right now. 429 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, face. I don't even know that's him, to be honest, 430 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: we're just assuming it is. 431 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: I guess the NBA made a dress code for this. 432 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 2: It is weird. 433 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: It's amazing. 434 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 2: It is weird for sure. Yeah. But they called Spencer 435 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 2: Dinwiddie a cancer last year in that locker room, which 436 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,240 Speaker 2: is strange because he doesn't seem like a cancer. 437 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 4: But uh, he seems like he has something to say 438 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 4: about everything. 439 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 2: Ye, he is very very talkative. 440 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 4: Takes one to no one. Spencer. 441 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: There you go, Okay, any other thoughts on either of 442 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: those games? Nugs Pels was mess. 443 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, then both entertaining finishes the nugs were carved up 444 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: by those pelt by Alvarado there. That's the worrisome part 445 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 2: for them as that championship contender. Sure just getting spread 446 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 2: thin a little bit and then they can can get 447 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: carved up and the mess can't wait fifteen days away? 448 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: What are they gonna do? 449 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 4: All? 450 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: Right? Our final one here in what you got? Lebron 451 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 1: James hit a career high ninety three pointers. He scored 452 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: forty six points, but the Clippers hit nineteen threes of 453 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: their own, and that led them to the very comfortable 454 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: one thirty three, one fifteen victory over the Lakers last night. 455 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: But Lebron, in scoring over forty points against the Clips, 456 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: he became the first player to ever score forty points 457 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: against all thirty teams in the NBA. So, yeah, the 458 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: Lakers lost the game, but all the headlines are about 459 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 1: Lebron Crazier lebron achievement tasks the career high nine three 460 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: pointers made at this point in his twenty years. In 461 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: hitting nine, or becoming the first player to score forty 462 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: points versus all thirty teams? What's crazier? 463 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 4: What you oh? 464 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 2: Come on? What forty points versus thirty teams? 465 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: Kobe never got a chance. 466 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: He never got a chance. It is unfortunate what happens 467 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: when the new teams come in, When the new expansion 468 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 2: teams come in, it would be impressive. And I heard 469 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: your advice say this on the Daily denk if it 470 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 2: was thirty points against all thirty teams. It's forty and 471 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,719 Speaker 2: he played before the point inflation. Half his career, more 472 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 2: than half his career is before point inflation. That's damn impressive. 473 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 2: Kind of surprising that the last one was the Clippers 474 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,479 Speaker 2: of all teams, but I guess he didn't play them 475 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 2: as much for a good chunk of his career. Both 476 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: incredible accomplishments because he was only twenty nine percent from 477 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 2: the three point land coming in. I know, I. 478 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: Almost find myself leaning towards that one. Lebron at this point, 479 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: thirty eight years old, pops off for nine threes. I 480 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: guess you could counter with, well, everybody just hits threes 481 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: now and he got hot, but it all came in 482 00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: a loss. But which one are you going with? 483 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 4: I mean, task is right. Lebron created the forty thirty club. 484 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 4: It never existed before last night. Forty points against all 485 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 4: thirty teams. That's a testament to availability and longevity and 486 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 4: straight up skills. I loved hearing Brian Anderson speculating that 487 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 4: he's going to break Kareem Abdul Jabbar's scoring record with 488 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 4: a jump book. 489 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: Working on it in pregame. 490 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 4: I would love to see that happen. But I'm going 491 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 4: he'll try to at least in the game. He'll try 492 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 4: He'll shoot at least one in the game, I do believe. 493 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 4: But maybe more surprising that he that his career high 494 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 4: is now nine threes just because Lebron has played nearly 495 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 4: eighteen hundred games. Yeah, he's been in the zone for 496 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 4: nine hundred and twenty seven of them. I went back 497 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 4: and did the math. You would think there would be 498 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 4: just one game where he decies to take a whole 499 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 4: bunch of threes. And that's the thing. If he played 500 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 4: his entire career in point inflation, I bet he would 501 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 4: have a ten three pointer game, because early in his 502 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 4: career he would be like ten for thirteen or something 503 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 4: and just keep shooting, shooting, shooting threes. He's too smart 504 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: now goes inside, shoots layups. Yeah, you don't need to 505 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 4: take a bunch of threes when you can make a bunch. 506 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 2: Of latter, right, Yeah, yeah, he just he's too big. 507 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 2: He doesn't need to. But it was surprising hearing stan 508 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 2: Van say on the broadcast that among the one hundred 509 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: and fifty players who've qualified for three point percentage, he's 510 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 2: got the second worst percentage, the second worst percentage after 511 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 2: such a great season that he's carrying this team. But yeah, 512 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 2: a lowly twenty nine percent coming and got bumped up 513 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 2: with that nine to three game. Also, the oldest player 514 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 2: to ever dive over the first row in NBA history. 515 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 2: I got a thick thirty eight years old diving over 516 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,959 Speaker 2: the first row. Come on, he's given his body yet. 517 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: I don't think Kareem ever did it. Carl Kevin willis. 518 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 2: Too slow Rish, Yeah, you might be right. Yeah, I 519 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 2: don't know. 520 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: Somebody checked that Lebron had been tied with three other 521 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: players who had recorded a forty point game versus twenty 522 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: nine franchises. You want to take a stab at it. 523 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: Kobe obviously one of them, because never had a chance 524 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: to score forty against his own team, the Lakers, though 525 00:24:58,280 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: he would have gave it a go. 526 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 4: For sure, he would have scored more than forty in 527 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 4: the first game against the Lakers, he ever played for 528 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 4: a different Can you. 529 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: Name the other two current players who have done it 530 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: against twenty nine franchises? They're just missing one. 531 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 4: KD Kevin Durant, James Harden Bingo, easy stuff done. 532 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: Durant thirty eight is high against the Hornets, so very 533 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: very close. And James Harden high of twenty nine against 534 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: the Rockets. Yeah, the Rockets showow to statitudes for that one. 535 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: And just to put a little button on this, Lebron 536 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 1: and all these achievements, he's just one hundred and seventy 537 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: seven points shy of Kareem Abdul Jabbar for the NBA's 538 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 1: all time one and seventy seven, one hundred and seventy seven. 539 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: So it puts them in a position here to potentially 540 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: break this record at the end or even maybe in 541 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: the middle of this Lakers five game road swing instead 542 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: of back home in LA because they play the Spurs 543 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: tonight at home. Is Lebron playing in a backback situation? 544 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't seen her that he's not 545 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: so okay, Let's say he plays the night, then they 546 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 1: go on the road Boston, Brooklyn, New York. 547 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: On the table. 548 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: It's it's maybe a little too soon Indiana and then 549 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: New Orleans. So look, if he keeps up this incredible 550 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: pace he's on recently, I'm thinking it feels like it's 551 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: Indiana or New Orleans. Didn't Indiana get Steph Courria breaking 552 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: the three point record? Did that happen in Indiana? 553 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 4: I thought it was he tried to break it in 554 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 4: We expected it in Indiana, like, oh, for ten from 555 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 4: three or something like. 556 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 2: He didn't make it in Indiana. 557 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: Oh, we thought it was going to. 558 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: Happen, Yggie first chance or something like that. Reggie good. Okay, 559 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,719 Speaker 2: Reggie had to travel with them. 560 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, Lebron's going to be likely doing it here 561 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: in the next five to seven games. 562 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 2: I hope it's with a skyhook. That would be pretty cool. 563 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 4: Actually. 564 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: Also, the Clippers won this game, so just a little 565 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: love to them taking care of business. Hit in the 566 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 1: nineteen threes. Kawhi Leonard in his last eight games is 567 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: averaging twenty nine point three points per game, seven boards, 568 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,479 Speaker 1: with shooting percentages of fifty five from the field forty 569 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: seven from three to ninety two. At the line. He's 570 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: a when he's playing, which is now more and more often. 571 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: You know, this is looking like that that automatic robotic 572 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 1: Kawhi Kawi has been activated. It maybe it might be 573 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: activated yet, it's. 574 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 4: Been miniaturely activated right now. But that was nice from 575 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 4: the Clippers. They have fifteen threes in the first half 576 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 4: and they scored twenty two points in the paint in 577 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. That's like everything they have. The Lakers 578 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 4: had one good quarter, but man, Westbrook had a couple 579 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 4: of turnovers. And that's why, like, when you're watching this team, 580 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 4: you're seeing the Lakers play better. They're getting really hot 581 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 4: Cha Mura tonight against the Spurs. They're getting Anthony Davis 582 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 4: tonight against the Spurs. It looks like things are trending upwards. 583 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 4: Both Westbrook's still playing a huge part in this. That 584 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 4: stuff happens, man, Yeah, just bad decisions like the past 585 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 4: to uh, who was it to Shrewder. Shrewder is not 586 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 4: a great decision maker, and Even's like, what you do it? Man? 587 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 4: That was that was terrible. And then he follows it 588 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 4: up like two possessions later with another turnover much the same, 589 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 4: completely killing the momentum for the Lakers. It happens too 590 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 4: often where things are going well and Westbrook is like, 591 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 4: I'm getting in on this and then things ain't going 592 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: well anymore. 593 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: Well, KOC out there throwing around Van Vliet and Gary 594 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: Trent Junior for Westbrook and those tasty first round picks 595 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: in the future. Chuckle oltle garl again, I mean the 596 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: Lakers should do that. If that's an actual trade, that's good. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 597 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 1: that's the real cute one. 598 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 2: Take a step back. Have no guards on the team, 599 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: I mean zero guards, and. 600 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: Then and then the draft picks, like so long down 601 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: the road, you would have Russ every night. Anyway, we'll 602 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: get into some more KOC trade rumors a little bit 603 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 1: later the other games from last night. I'm sorry, we 604 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: got to bring it up. T K Miles Turner, Benedict Mathern. 605 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: They spurred the rallies. What they spurred the pacers rally 606 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: to beat the bulls. One sixteen that they did, one ten. 607 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: They spurred the rally they did, They spurred the rally. 608 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,719 Speaker 1: Any thoughts on your bulls losing this one. 609 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 4: I'd be sad, but it was a textbook tale of 610 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,719 Speaker 4: two halves, and you know, I love it, Skeets. They 611 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 4: said it twice in the last minute of this broadcast. 612 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 4: The bulls held the pacers the forty six points on 613 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 4: thirty two percent shooting in the first half and then 614 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 4: gave up seventy second half points on fifty three percent shooting. 615 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 4: Billy Donovan said, we look overwhelmed when the intensity level 616 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,840 Speaker 4: goes up, and I thought that was exactly right. In 617 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, too much turnovers. The Bulls had six 618 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 4: and Zach Levine had four of them. TJ McConnell, it 619 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 4: was awesome in this one. He was like Deon Sanders 620 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 4: out there, completely took Levine out of the game, and 621 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 4: then Buddy Healed almost had a five by five, nineteen points, 622 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: five rebounds, four assists, four steals in three blocks whoever 623 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 4: Buddy healed including a strip off Levine's leg late, and 624 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 4: then he stole an inbounce pass under a minute left 625 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 4: in this one. So really good stuff from the Pacers 626 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 4: to come out after halftime and say the streak ends now. 627 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 4: Miles Turner put the team on his back. Ben Mathurn 628 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 4: put the team on his back in the fourth quarter, 629 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 4: hit the game winner. Pacers needed a win and this 630 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 4: is a good one for them to get because them 631 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 4: and the bowls are right there for nine and ten. 632 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: NBA Rivals Week. 633 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 2: Two, Yes, thank you. Thanks, thank you very much. 634 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 4: Game. 635 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 2: Yes, it was very fun watching that Live with you Fellas, 636 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 2: it was great. It was great last couple of minutes. 637 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 2: I like when Buddy Heel plays defense. It's exciting. But 638 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 2: they desperately needed to win, and they played like it. 639 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: Yep, and then the Suns won. They're fourth straight. Phoenix 640 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: is getting to go in here again. They crushed the 641 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: Hornets one twenty eight, ninety seven and the Suns have 642 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 1: Now they're in a tie with the Mavericks at twenty 643 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,479 Speaker 1: five and twenty four. And we've kept saying it here. 644 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: It's like one and a half weeks of basketball. You 645 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: can be like fourth in the West and you play 646 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: poorly and you are twelfth, and you flip it on 647 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: its head. You play decent for a week, string together 648 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: some wins. You can go from basically like tenth up 649 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: three or four spots, just like that. And that's where 650 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: they are and the key wins. 651 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 2: Here and it's coincided with a nice little homestand it's 652 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 2: worked out sort of perfectly when they needed to turn 653 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 2: their season round. They had four straight home games and 654 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: one of them all and now they get the Mas 655 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 2: at home on Thursday night. Likely a TNT game there, 656 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 2: and then they get the Spurs on the road, then 657 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 2: the Wraps and Hawks at home. So this is could 658 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: be a little little streak here for the Phoenix Suns 659 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 2: and hopefully Devin Booker comes back. 660 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: Have they lost a game with their new owner, like, 661 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: you know, really sitting court side? Yeah, I don't know 662 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: if they have. 663 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 4: It's a good question. 664 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: All right, let's take our first break when we come back, 665 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 1: We're going to hit the beach to answer a few 666 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: of your questions.

Step it down here, all right. 674 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 1: First question from texts. 675 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 2: Hi text Jesus, Okay. 676 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: The Ringers Kevin O'Connor insert tasty guitar lick here, right, 677 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: what the hell is okay? Chaos says. The talk around 678 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: the NBA is that the Clippers are actively looking for 679 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: an upgrade over Reggie Jackson at point guard and a 680 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: backup big man behind. Zobots KOs says the Clips could 681 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: be interested in Mike Conley, Fred van Vliet, or Kyle Lowry. 682 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: Which one of these vets makes the most sense to 683 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: pursue Again, that's from text. Thanks for sending in that 684 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: email texts yeehaw, Yeah, what do you got Conley Van Vliet, 685 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: Lowry or maybe somebody else? For the Clips. 686 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: I'd say the best one, the one at the height 687 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 2: of his powers, pretty much, Fred van Vliet would be 688 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 2: the best one of those three. He got question marks 689 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 2: with the other two. Kyle Lowry's hit or miss. He 690 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 2: did have a nice little nine point spurt the other 691 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 2: night against the Pelicans where he looked like old Kyle Lowry. 692 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 2: But are you gonna get that all the time? Ed 693 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: Mike Conley? Is he gonna be able to go for 694 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 2: two months in a playoff scenario? This is the plan 695 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 2: is to win a championship here, So I totally agree 696 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 2: they got to go for it. This is year four 697 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: of the experiment. They've hit one conference finals. They are 698 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: absolutely going to go for it, and I think that 699 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 2: could mean Fred van Vliet, that would be that would 700 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 2: be a dream. But do they have enough to get 701 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: it would be a dream? Come on, that would be 702 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 2: nice to have Fred back there with his old buddy Kawhi. 703 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 2: That would be such an upgrade over Reggie Jackson. I 704 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: know Terrence Man is working out right now with them, 705 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: But Fred van Vliet, you know, unlike those other two guys, 706 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 2: he plays d really really well. He wouldn't have to 707 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: handle the ball as much as he does with the raps. 708 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 2: I think he would be reinvigorated. Look great, But do 709 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 2: they have enough to get him. 710 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 1: I mean, they don't have a lot of picks now. 711 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:19,959 Speaker 2: They could squeeze out one pick and then it would 712 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 2: be if if Massi is enamored with like Terrence Man, 713 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,840 Speaker 2: maybe Man, Yeah, Brandon Boston, that's the that's that's the 714 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 2: talk going back plus a pick. But I do see 715 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 2: a potential for Massia to say goodbye to Fred here 716 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 2: because it feels a little like Kyle Lowry when he 717 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 2: was almost dealt to the Knicks, except James Dolan said, 718 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 2: I don't want Kyle Lowry. 719 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 1: You screwed us with that barn. 720 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he fooled me once and then he helped helped 721 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 2: the Raps win a championship by saying no. So this 722 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 2: could be that type of scenario where Fred, you know, 723 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 2: in Massi's eyes, maybe he sees the you know, the 724 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 2: peak of peak of Fred was last year, and he 725 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 2: tries to cash in to get somebody a little bit 726 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 2: better suited to play with the other guys. But maybe 727 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: he just doesn't want to lock into Sea Akham and 728 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 2: Barnes and Og and Fred, So maybe they move on. 729 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 2: Obviously Cotton Mike Conley would be good, but yeah, we're 730 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 2: talking about a guy at the. 731 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: Most gettable, most affordable. Yeah right, I mean you're you're right, 732 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 1: he's getting up there in age, but he's still a solid, 733 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: solid player. Maybe that's just really what they need. I mean, 734 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: like that table setter sort of guy in that vet 735 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: at the point guard position that you could trust more 736 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: so than than Lowry. And then Van Vliet's gonna cost 737 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: you if you trade for him, obviously, whatever that takes. 738 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: If they even have enough to entice the Raptors, I 739 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: sort of don't think they do. And then the decision 740 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 1: to like, what the heck are we doing? Like how 741 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: much money are we giving this guy? So I would 742 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: lean towards Connelly just most realistic. I guess that Koc 743 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 1: is thrown out, But what do you think? 744 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 4: That's a tough call. I mean, I kind of feel 745 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 4: like this is a four way Spider Man with Reggie Jackson, 746 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 4: Mike Conley, Fred Van Vleet, and Kyle Lowry. Like they're 747 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 4: all fine starting point guard. They're all shooting about forty 748 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 4: percent from the field, thirty five from three. It's just 749 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 4: a matter of ages, really, you know. Fred Van Vliet 750 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 4: is the youngest, seven to eight years younger, yeah, than 751 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 4: the other trade targets in Conley and Lowry. Here the 752 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 4: Clippers would then be able to sign him to a 753 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 4: longer deal because he's going to be a free agent, 754 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 4: so I think, probably the best value for their assets. 755 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 4: But it feels like Conley is the most gettable, and 756 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 4: I think tass is right that the Clippers need to 757 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 4: be saying who gives us the best chance to win 758 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 4: the title this year? I don't know. I mean, like, 759 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 4: who's the best driver of these players? Van Vleet gets 760 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 4: in the lane the most, I think, but yeah, probably 761 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 4: the worst finisher compared to Lowry and Conley. Conley maybe 762 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 4: the best catching shoot guy, which I think would be 763 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 4: helpful as well. The good part about Mike Conley and 764 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 4: Kyle Lowry though, is that their contracts line up with 765 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 4: the end of Paul George and Kawhi Leonard's contract. So 766 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 4: if it doesn't go well, clear the deck. I mean, 767 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 4: they don't have any picks or anything they could use, 768 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 4: but they could. They could maybe look to trade Kawhi 769 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 4: next year, look to trade Paul George next year and 770 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 4: start the next Clippers rebuild. But uh, honestly, to me, 771 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 4: like Conley, Van Dlaton Lowry, they ain't moving the needle 772 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 4: for this Clippers team. It's got to be Paul George 773 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 4: and Kawhi Leonard playing over their heads for a month 774 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:18,280 Speaker 4: and a half in the playoffs. 775 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I do agree. A bit of a 776 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 2: spider Man mean on offense, but Freddy will be a 777 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,799 Speaker 2: bulldog I think defensively like he'll be. They've got a 778 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: good defense, they do, they do, but they want to 779 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 2: win the whole thing. Uh So it would be the 780 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 2: biggest upgrade I think they could in terms of these 781 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: ones that Kaosi has thrown out. Plus they need a 782 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 2: backup big they could be busy. I think. 783 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:46,800 Speaker 1: Next one here from Ari he writes in Chris Haynes 784 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: reported yesterday that the Blazers remain committed to trying to 785 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: surround Damian Lillard with a roster capable of competing with 786 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 1: the best, And then there are no plans to tank 787 00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: this season. So what should they do? Do you see 788 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: a trade or two that could turn Portland season around? Yeah, 789 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: thanks to Ari for sending that in talking Blazers here 790 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,280 Speaker 1: who have completely fallen off a cliff after a really 791 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: hot start, a surprising start to a lot of people. 792 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: What do they do here? 793 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,280 Speaker 4: Well, you know the way that this is framed capable 794 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 4: of competing with the best, I think that's a pretty 795 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 4: low bar, quite honestly, because when I read that, I 796 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,720 Speaker 4: look at their trying to get to where the Dallas 797 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 4: Mavericks are competitive team over five hundred with a superstar 798 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 4: who gives you a chance in any sort of playoff series. 799 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 4: Right now, Portland is two games back of the sixth seed. 800 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 4: It feels like they are so far down because they're 801 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 4: very low in the standings. 802 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 1: Just two games back, they. 803 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 4: Can easily get back at least into the play in 804 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,839 Speaker 4: tournament pretty easily. They need size right now is the 805 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 4: big thing for Portland. In their rotation. Jeremy Grant six 806 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 4: foot eight, Drew you Banks six foot nine, Nurkic is 807 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 4: seven feet everybody else is six foot six and under, 808 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,280 Speaker 4: and it really shows up out there. So I would 809 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 4: if I'm the Blazers, I'm shopping nurk I'm shopping Simon's. 810 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 4: I'm shopping Heart, I'm shopping Sharp. To be quite honest, 811 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 4: Dame and Grant, they are untouchable to me. Their pick 812 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 4: situation is weird because they have this pick protected to 813 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 4: the Bulls one through fourteen through twenty twenty eight, so 814 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,399 Speaker 4: they kind of got to wait until that conveys before 815 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 4: they can do anything. That was a trade to have 816 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 4: Larry NaNs around for four months swinging a miss right there. 817 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 4: So they're gonna have to look to move player for 818 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 4: player for the most part. So this season, I'm looking 819 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 4: at nas Reed, I'm looking at Billy Herman Gomez. I'm 820 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 4: looking at Jared Vanderbilt. Not big names, but competitors with 821 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 4: size that will play defense. Because an alignment of Lillard 822 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 4: plus another small guard plus a short guy and Josh 823 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 4: Hart and Nurkic, it ain't gonna work. We've seen it 824 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 4: too many times. It's just not gonna work. 825 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,920 Speaker 2: It is the same story over again. Unfortunately for them, 826 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 2: their defense is dropped off after a nice little start. Yeah, 827 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 2: the chemistry thing just just that's what it is. It's 828 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 2: about the pieces. I think we've seen it with the 829 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: New York Knicks. Quentin grind I'm not a name that 830 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 2: you probably most NBA fans know, but inserted makes more 831 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 2: sense if they had a guard beside Lillard that was 832 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 2: a little bit more grimy. I think it would make 833 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 2: more sense or or tally instead of Nurkic. Just a 834 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 2: better balance of defense and offense in that starting lineup. 835 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,680 Speaker 2: I think that's what they need. Call the magic they've got. 836 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: Everybody Simon had could be very interested in. You could 837 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: see that. 838 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,399 Speaker 2: Oh, just as a perimeter score, they need a guard. Yeah, yeah, 839 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 2: I can see that. 840 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 1: I mean he's on a decent deal as a young guy. 841 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 1: I mean he's he's shown as a lead guy. He 842 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: can definitely score. He gives a lot back, don't get 843 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 1: me wrong. And I don't think the pairing works all 844 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 1: that well with Lillard as your backcourt. It is McCollum 845 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: and Lillard like, but I think he could get you 846 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 1: a decent return player. Wise, that maybe would fit better. 847 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: Like you're saying, yeah, give you more of a defensive 848 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: identity other I mean, you know, then you said all 849 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: that things about like they're still in the mix of things. 850 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: It's not like they're way behind. But man, it's tough 851 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: to see them and go they're going to win a 852 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 1: playoff series. I mean, they could get there, they get 853 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: in the play and maybe, but not a lot of 854 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 1: confidence in them beaten so many of these other teams 855 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: right now. 856 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 4: Oh, definitely not. It would have to be Lillard multiple 857 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 4: fifty point games in a series and probably hitting some 858 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 4: buzzer beaters and that's a first round ceiling. But it's 859 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 4: better than missing everything for the second straight season because 860 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 4: Dan Lillard is patient, but he ain't gonna be that 861 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 4: patient to not even have a chance. 862 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, the playoffs, Yeah, next one here with All Star 863 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: weekend coming up. What are some events you wish they added, 864 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: got rid of, or just change back to the way 865 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: it was. I really think they should change the skills 866 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 1: Challenge back to the way it was in the mid 867 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: two thousands when Nash and d Rose competed. This is 868 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 1: the first person to ever think this, I'm telling you 869 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: right now any others longtime listener, first time asking a 870 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: Q love the pod hashtag keep the NBA Rad and 871 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: that is from at the Rad Josh Weaver. So yeah, 872 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: the question, well, I mean, any thoughts on the heyday 873 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: of the Skills Challenge back when Nash and Rows are 874 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: going at it. I guess what he's just saying, like, 875 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: get rid of these bigs in it, just go back 876 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: to the guards. What was different back then? 877 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 4: There were we're just posting a time, right. It wasn't 878 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 4: like a yeah, it. 879 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: Wasn't to head to head. It wasn't good. 880 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 4: I mean yeah, I mean the Skills Challenge is like 881 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 4: the first run at a pickup game. You're just getting 882 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,880 Speaker 4: your legs. You're just going back and forth. Nobody's you know, 883 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 4: just trying to get things warmed up. I would love 884 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:40,280 Speaker 4: to add like a flare multiplier for the Skills Challenge, 885 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 4: Like you get extra points if you got flashy handles, 886 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 4: you're throwing behind the back passes, you're doing a cool 887 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 4: layup or a cool dunk. Put some style into it, walking, 888 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 4: lasing through the logo, man throwing it lazily into the 889 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 4: into the tire, throw it behind the back into that tire, 890 00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 4: maybe make it cool. 891 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: What about adding you know, we have the Celebrity game 892 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: on the Friday night, what about like incorporating the celebrities 893 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: into the skills. 894 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,240 Speaker 4: Challenge Celebrity Skills Challenge. 895 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: Like might be more entertaining, or maybe you pair them 896 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 1: up with players too, or just like don't even let 897 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: the like these players are NBA athletes. Yeah, they can 898 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: do these skills. That's the weirdest part of this whole thing. 899 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 1: Like maybe just let whatever the be Let's see if 900 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: the property brothers can hang, you know, in a skills challenge, 901 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: brothers get ahead. I don't know, it's better. 902 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 4: They should do that on their show. You see that 903 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 4: they got brother versus brother coming out. Well there you go, 904 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 4: let's start it at the skills challenge. 905 00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, either it'd be more entertaining than NBA players half 906 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: fass in this. 907 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a skills challenge, you know it's there. 908 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 1: They added the big so it was a decent attempt. 909 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 1: It was a fine wrinkle. It was like almost like 910 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 1: whoa a seven foot can dribble and shoot? 911 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 4: Now it's like everybody does. 912 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 1: Everybody does. It's not that amazing, So I don't know, 913 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 1: what do you think or what other event answer I 914 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 1: need to answer Josh Weavers. 915 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I'm not focused on changing the skills competition. 916 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 2: We need to fix the skills I get it. I 917 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:09,959 Speaker 2: get it. 918 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 1: Starts the Saturday night. 919 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I think you bring back the Shooting Stars competition. Yeah, 920 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,560 Speaker 2: it's fun seeing people shoot long shots. Yeah, you're right, 921 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 2: you're right, rather than throw it in a hoop or 922 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 2: you know, going around cutout who cares. 923 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: Well they should be Jeff Probe's cutouts. 924 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 4: Oh, and survivors are doing the challenge. There we go. 925 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, people who can't, people who can't who aren't NBA players. 926 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 2: It's a little bit more intriguing to see what. 927 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,640 Speaker 1: We watch it in every NBA game during a timeout 928 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 1: they have to bring people out and the crowd gets 929 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: into it. If people are battling and trying to hit 930 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 1: layups and free throws and dribbling around things, it's more entertaining. 931 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, to see them fail. Generally, Listen, the Shooting Shooting 932 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 2: Stars has been good. They've done like the three person team. 933 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 2: It's either like you know, current NBA w NBA plus 934 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 2: a Legend and we've also talked about the Legends game, 935 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 2: which was an old game and talked about maybe bringing 936 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 2: back recently retired players. It's less of a legends game, 937 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 2: and just like these players that stay extremely in shape 938 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 2: in their forties and fifties, maybe there's a balance of both. 939 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 2: Maybe we just see Kevin Garnett doing Shooting Stars or 940 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 2: you know, like the older players just come to Shooting 941 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 2: Stars because I don't want really want to see forty 942 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 2: and fifty year olds play, Like what are they gonna 943 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 2: play an hour and a half of basketball? Like why 944 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 2: would you watch that? Watch them for twenty years in 945 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 2: their prime just go out like that. But the Shooting Stars, 946 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 2: you know, something has to be done to bring you 947 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:39,399 Speaker 2: even had. 948 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 1: The Shooting Stars event in eight seasons, Chris Bosh, Swin 949 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 1: Cash and Dominique Wilkins, they they retired the Shooting Stars. 950 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: They wanted to stray. Nobody could beat too good. Bosh 951 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 1: was money from half and they're like, nobody's gonna beat 952 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 1: these guys.

Like win wise, I think. 1007 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: Five versus three would have been the way to to 1008 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 1: to to handicap this match. Five Dylan Brooks versus three 1009 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: Shannon Sharps myself into the Brooks. 1010 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 4: I mean maybe I'm underrating Dylan Brooks a little bit here. 1011 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 4: He's listed six six twenty five. Shannon Sharp was listed 1012 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 4: six two two twenty five. He's obviously been retired for 1013 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 4: a couple of decades now, he's probably more like two forty. Yeah, 1014 00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 4: he's got old man strength. Yeah, at this point, Dylan Brooks, 1015 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 4: he's interested in the smoke. At the very least, five 1016 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 4: versus three seems fair to a draw. 1017 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 2: Wow, the black tank top slash bodysuit slash single it 1018 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: it's not not what didn't do it for me? I 1019 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 2: feel like Shannon Sharp, still in his retired age, would 1020 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 2: be bursting out of a singlet like that cardigan. 1021 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: Is gonna slow Sharp downn sleek jeans.

I 1025 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 2: think he's he's got it right. Cool. 1026 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: Great question from at Marvin Bagels. Also great twitter there 1027 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: who winds in a fight? Five Dylan Brooks or four 1028 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 1: Shannon Sharps. Okay, we're gonna take our last break when 1029 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: we come back picking results and uh a tweet of 1030 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 1: the night that you just got to see. It was 1031 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 1: one of the games we were locked in on last 1032 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 1: night on playback for our NBA watch party. Celtics Heat. 1033 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 1: Missing a lot of guys in this game, but it 1034 00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 1: was a close one, entertaining Heat. They were the favorites 1035 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 1: by one and a half points. I said give me 1036 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 1: Miami and they got it done. I'm six and ten 1037 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: task and Tray took the l last night past seven 1038 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 1: and nine, so well, I'm a game behind you. Trey 1039 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,839 Speaker 1: is very comfortable eleven and five. But what's tonight's game? 1040 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 2: Oh? I saw a couple of our loves on the 1041 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 2: board in a single game, so I had to pick 1042 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 2: at Toronto at Sacramento. King's favored by four and a 1043 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 2: half at home. You guys think the beam will be 1044 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 2: lit the two of you picking Sacramento win by five 1045 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 2: or more, and I'm in a bit of a rut. 1046 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 2: So I'm stubbornly taking the Toronto Raptors to cover four 1047 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 2: or lasts. 1048 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a tough one. 1049 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 2: Good line there, Yeah, it's a good line. Good line. 1050 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 2: Line setters. 1051 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,359 Speaker 1: Raps are a little difficult at times to figure out, 1052 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:59,840 Speaker 1: but they don't stop anyone. And the Kings scored in bunches. 1053 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 1: Well that continued. Yeah, I'm betting at will. 1054 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 2: I hear you. Yeah, I hear you. I hear you. 1055 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 2: Just going for the home team. Yeah, gotcha, I mean 1056 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,720 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, my home team. 1057 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:11,919 Speaker 1: Let's get to tweet of the night. 1058 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 2: Tweet over ow wow. 1059 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, back to the Heat game. A young Jimmy Butler 1060 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:24,959 Speaker 1: fan crushed by the news that his Heat star wasn't 1061 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: playing last night versus the Celtics. You know. The reaction 1062 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: was caught on camera. Here is the video. The kids 1063 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,320 Speaker 1: sign reads, dear Jimmy, we flew over four four hundred 1064 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: and five miles to see you play. Can we get 1065 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,720 Speaker 1: a photo or big face coffee? And then he's told 1066 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:44,279 Speaker 1: Jimmy ain't playing. Kid drops the sign, hands to his head. 1067 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: He is shook. He couldn't he can't believe we came 1068 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:50,839 Speaker 1: all this way from Argentina. What the hell Jimmy? Oh yeah, 1069 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,640 Speaker 1: just before tip off, Jimmy ruled out with back soreness. 1070 00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 1: But you know what happened. 1071 00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 2: He got some kids plays. 1072 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, he got some gifts his sister, 1073 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:06,840 Speaker 1: I believe Zoe sharing the photo. I got a basketball. 1074 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:10,120 Speaker 1: There probably a sign Jersey. Did he get a coffee? 1075 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how young are kids drinking coffee? 1076 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 4: And Argentina right well, I know my American kids are 1077 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:23,279 Speaker 4: not drinking coffee. Oh they've sampled it, yucky. 1078 00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 1: They do it differently, and so honestly that kid might 1079 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: be drinking a coffee or to today, I believe it. 1080 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:33,200 Speaker 1: So anyway, this has happened before. It sucks. They came 1081 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 1: a long way four four hundred and five miles to 1082 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: be exact, and Jimmy a sort of late scratch there, 1083 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: but he got the gear. And because I'm so skeptical, 1084 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, you know, slick move by this kid. Let's 1085 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,360 Speaker 1: get some stuff kids like from down the street. 1086 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 2: He's back there drinking a coffee right now. No, he's 1087 00:52:56,080 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 2: drinking mate right now, chilling out thinking I don't even 1088 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:04,239 Speaker 2: got them. I didn't fly forty four hundred miles down 1089 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 2: the street forty four five. Yeah, he threw in that 1090 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 2: five just to throw people off exactly. 1091 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: It's a little too specific. Bought the flag. You can 1092 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: buy a flag off Amazon, you can. 1093 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 4: I got everything, man, anyway, you got some stuffs, all 1094 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:23,880 Speaker 4: the good stuff. Jimmy Butler, though, had played in a 1095 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 4: season long streak of games heading into this one eleven 1096 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 4: oh wow, eleven straight games. That's the most games he's 1097 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:34,040 Speaker 4: played in this season. January is a bad time to 1098 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 4: buy tickets, I think because that we've seemed to run 1099 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 4: into rest questions all the time in January. It's a 1100 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 4: doul drums kind of month. I also would be worry 1101 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,760 Speaker 4: about buying tickets for Clippers games. Qui and Paul George 1102 00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:51,280 Speaker 4: hmm hmm. Anthony Davis, that's a risky one Zion, risky 1103 00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 4: Lonzo ball. Those are my top five most riskiest tickets 1104 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 4: to buy in the month of January. 1105 00:53:55,440 --> 00:54:02,919 Speaker 1: In the NBA, it's flu season two absolute then illnesses yep, yep. 1106 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 1: But Jimmy out with the stiff back there. But that's 1107 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,440 Speaker 1: all right. He got a ball, he got a jersey. 1108 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:10,400 Speaker 1: I guess I never got a photo or a coffee. 1109 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: In the end, but they can stick around for the 1110 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 1: next game.
