Speaker 3: I am lucky to be back in all honestly, very

21
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 3: very very very very lucky. I have a lot of

22
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: supporting cast. It's mainly my wife Danielle got me back

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,479
Speaker 3: here to be. To be honest, I'm not certain how

24
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 3: I'm back, to be honest, because it's under eight weeks.

25
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,399
Speaker 3: Under under eight weeks, it's astonishing. All the people that

26
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 3: I was in the hospital with getting to know them,

27
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 3: and how long it would take them to get back

28
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 3: to their regular life is a hell of a lot

29
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 3: longer than eight weeks. So I'm just astonished that I

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 3: am back. It's mainly my wife, she has to deal

31
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: with me being extremely stubborn and hard headed, but it

32
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 3: was it was a serious injury. I'm not certain that

33
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: this show is going to be any better because I'm

34
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 3: not one hundred percent back, and it's not gonna be

35
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 3: any funnier than it's been the last year. Already better,

36
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: but I'm incredibly lucky, thankful to be here. Doctors, nurses, family,

37
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 3: Danielle's mom my bro myssis my sister in law. You

38
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 3: guys kicking ask coming in, especially that first week, that

39
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: first ten days, I honestly don't remember a lot of

40
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 3: things that happened, to be quite honest, daniel took a

41
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: lot of videos and to see JD come up, I

42
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: think it was four days in. You had to come

43
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 3: to my right side of my bed, JD, which I

44
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 3: feel very sorry for you, because my right side definitely

45
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 3: my ugliest side, so that's not very fair. It was

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: a mess, So I'm not gonna lie.

47
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: You've watched Oh.

48
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they're private, don't go look at them. Trey

49
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: sticking around one night early on, especially because I was

50
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 3: setting off the alarm of that that that bed because

51
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: I just wanted to go to the bathroom and as

52
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 3: soon as you leave that bed, the alarm goes off.

53
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 3: And we needed some helps with Trey stuck around one night.

54
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: So I appreciate that very very much. Skeet's coming in

55
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 3: one of his nights or one of his days, I

56
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 3: should say, bringing those desserts big time, big time.

57
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't know you had a sweet tooth, like, oh.

58
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 3: I had a sweet tooth because I didn't have a

59
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 3: regular tooth at the hospital. At the hospital, I needed

60
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 3: some desserts. I lost some weight because I didn't want

61
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 3: to eat that plain old food. Let's be quite honest.

62
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 3: But the desserts came through. I was eating Boston creams.

63
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 3: I was eating big time red velvets. I was eating

64
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 3: the crispy creams that you brought in, the chocolate with

65
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: the coconuts. I gained lots of weight back. It helped

66
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: out a lot. And honestly, I do want to thank

67
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: everybody who has listened to the show, who has commented,

68
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: because I went back and I thought about over the

69
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 3: past eighteen years, since we started the show nearly eighteen

70
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 3: years ago. I go look at people's comments and usually

71
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: they're about, Hey, I love the show. You guys do

72
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 3: so much for me. And it was literally flipped, that

73
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: entire little narrative flipped. Everybody out there doing a lot

74
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 3: for me, just saying get back, get back, get back,

75
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: and that really helped me. And that really, really really

76
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 3: really really did help me. So family, friends, everybody, you guys.

77
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 3: I think maybe one day we'll get into a deep

78
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 3: dive of the hospital stay, which was extremely long. But

79
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 3: not now, let's just get to the basketball stuff. So

80
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: I appreciate it.

81
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: Are you excited to be back talking hoops?

82
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 3: Of course? Of course in the hospital it was October,

83
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: a lot of baseball. Take it in. I was lucky

84
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,479
Speaker 3: enough to be in front of a television and I

85
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,119
Speaker 3: was waiting. I was waiting for basketball, which is still

86
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 3: the best sport in the world, and so absolutely I

87
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 3: took it all in.

88
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, well let's get into it and yeah,

89
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 2: I think we should do a deep dive of yeah,

90
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: your hospital staying in your recovery. But I can't believe

91
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: when you just said eight weeks ago. It feels both

92
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 2: like yesterday and also ten years ago at the same time.

93
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 2: It's one of those things we're pumped to have task back.

94
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,120

Speaker 2: star rating and review. Well you remember what we do.

98
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: Of course, winners and losers of the NBA Weekend. Why

99
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: don't you get us started with your big winner? Who

100
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: do you have?

101
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 3: Yeah? Why not the Los Angeles Lakers? Why why are

102
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 3: they this early in a show? They're five hundred. Do

103
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 3: they deserve to be a winner of the weekend? I

104
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 3: think so. I think they're slowly getting themselves back to

105
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 3: being a playoff type team. On Friday, they beat the

106
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 3: Suns in their first nd season tournament game. They went

107
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 3: into Phoenix and they handled the business. I loved how

108
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 3: they took Austin Reeves out of the starting lineup, the

109
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: guy that we talked about all summer. Here's their third

110
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: best player. They just pulled him right out and he wasn't.

111
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: He was sensational. I know they pulled him out of

112
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 3: the starting lineup, but that's because they wanted him to thrive,

113
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 3: to be Austin Reeves. And that fourth quarter he was great.

114
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 3: He played every single minute. He had five assists. The

115
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 3: ball was going through him instead of going through D'Angelo

116
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 3: Russell like it happens when he's sharing the starting lineup

117
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 3: together with d Lo. That's the way to do it.

118
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: And I loved how head coach Darvin Ham said after

119
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 3: the game. He remember managing nobly he came off the

120
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: bench and how important he was to that San Antonio

121
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 3: Spurs team. I love him. He was part of those

122
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: Pistons teams that played the the finals. I forgot he doesn't.

123
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 3: He didn't play a lot in the finals, but he

124
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 3: was there. Reeves set everything up and the guy who

125
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 3: took his starting spot was Cam Reddish, And I think

126
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 3: Reddish could be that guy we know, I know, we

127
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 3: get excited about him here. He could be there Lonnie

128
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 3: Walker who had that huge fourth quarter in the playoffs

129
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 3: last year. Slowly, Lebron does these things to guys to

130
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 3: help him you know, get supported. He had a huge game.

131
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 3: He had five threes, he had the three that really

132
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 3: put it away. Lebron set it up with a minute

133
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 3: ten left. I thought he was great. Austin Reeves was great.

134
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: I thought, Lebron is just getting ready for Las Vegas.

135
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 3: He wants to be in the n season tournament final.

136
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 3: He does.

137
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: Wow.

138
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got to have something Jordan doesn't have. Yeah,

139
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: in season tournament win.

140
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 3: And season tournament win. Yeah, put it up. Put it up.

141
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: I hate how they call it the IST, but whatever, and.

142
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: Let's catch it on. Let's catch it on big time.

143
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 3: I heard that a lot this past week Devali separate

144
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 3: celebrations because Indian standard time. I was hearing a lot.

145
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 3: I heard the people saying, just like me, I like

146
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 3: to show up late d the Indian standard time. We

147
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 3: set the time. We set the time early here on

148
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: IST so people would show up when we wanted them

149
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 3: in standard time. Anyway, Lebron was hobbling around that game

150
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 3: on Friday, so or people worried about his injury. He

151
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 3: set everything up thirty two, eleven and six, and then

152
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 3: they could just sit him on Sunday, which was great.

153
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: I know.

154
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 3: Adam Silver will say, Hey, you gotta play every game,

155
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 3: but it wasn't a national TV game, so you can sit,

156
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 3: no problem. He sat and they beat the Blazers, no problem.

157
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: Anthony Davis had to show up in that one thirty thirteen,

158
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 3: six and three blocks, especially because he was beating set

159
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 3: up by Reeves and by D'Angel Russell. Actually that was

160
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 3: that was pretty So they're five hundred. Their schedule has

161
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 3: been fairly tough to start this season. Now they got

162
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 3: an easy, easy, little run here. Next five to six

163
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 3: will be at home though. Yeah, I'm definitely hoping that

164
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 3: this team is a decent playoff team and that Polinka's

165
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: somehow merging of all these guys will help out. I

166
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 3: think it will. I think it'll work.

167
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: Lakers back to five hundred, back in the win column.

168
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: According to Tassi, here our first winner of the weekend.

169
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 2: T K, let's keep it moving because we have so

170
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 2: much talk about who you got next?

171
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: Chunky winners. Yeah, they feel like this this weekend Rockets,

172
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: they get a winner. They're on their longest winning streak

173
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one, thrilling one on Friday in the

174
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: team played this game on a three D court. Pretty crazy,

175
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: Red blue red. Oh, I've ever seen that before.

176
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 2: That's one of the wild looking ones.

177
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: I do not like it. I did not like those one.

178
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: But the Rockets did okay. They trailed by five about

179
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: two minutes left, but it was fred o'clock Van Vleet

180
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: back to back threes a couple of free throws scored

181
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: eight in the final seventy five seconds of this game.

182
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: The Rockets finished the game on a nine to one run.

183
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: That game in their fifth straight win. Then on Sunday

184
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: night they beat the nut No Jamal Murray still got

185
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 1: Jokic out there. Big games for Fred and Al Van

186
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 1: Vliet had twenty six points, four assists. Sheng goon ball

187
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: in this season twenty three, eight and five. But it

188
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: was really the Jeff Green revenge game. What's a season

189
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: high fifteen off the bench for Uncle Jeff, looking very

190
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: much like an uncle with his hair cut short right now,

191
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 1: it's given Clyde Drexler vibes. It's short, but you could

192
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: see he's still going fall. Jeff Green outscored the Nuggets reserves,

193
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: of which he was won last season, outscored them by

194
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: himself eight points on four of nineteen shooting for Denver's bench.

195
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: It's all young guys. They're trying to figure it out

196
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: this season to be able to have a cheaper team

197
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: going forward and maybe replace a Jeff Green. But it

198
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: did not work for the Nuggets. On Sunday, Jeff Green

199
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: was basically calling out Denver's place. Hit a three late

200
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, hit a free throw to help

201
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 1: ice the game late. I thought was pretty impressive. Nuggets.

202
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 1: Definitely bench is a work in progress. You could tell

203
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: that they were missing Jeff Green. But six straight wins

204
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: for the Rockets after starting zero to three. Ebe Udoka.

205
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: Maybe the signing of the offseason. Maybe it's Dylan Brooks,

206
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 1: maybe it's Fred van Vliet. It's clicking right now, good

207
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: stuff for Houston.

208
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was Bontemps on the Hoop collect

209
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: in this morning. When I was listening, it was one

210
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: of the tim's, either McMahon or Bontemps pointing out like

211
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,839
Speaker 2: we do always talk about Fred Van Vliet and Dylan

212
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 2: Brooks as the vets that came to Houston, but Jeff

213
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 2: Green should be included that in that mix, you know,

214
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: not because he's gonna like start like those guys or

215
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 2: light it up like those guys and contribute as much.

216
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 2: But you see these flashes that he did in this game,

217
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: and just like being that leader, you know, Scarry sorry,

218
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: locker room leader and just a guy that's been around

219
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: forever and knows how to win, how it goes about

220
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 2: your business in the NBA. So just smart to include

221
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: him when you're talking about these guys along with Udoka

222
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 2: that have come in and given this team an identity

223
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: with all their young guns and Sheng Gun's been incredible.

224
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 3: I love how Jeff Green just went and got it

225
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 3: to go against his old team like that. He killed

226
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 3: him late in that fourth quarter is season high right there.

227
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 3: Fifteen points, just dropping it with that bald head. He's

228
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 3: got it shaved. Yeah, yeah, we don't know, we don't know.

229
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 3: I think I think he's done a good job of.

230
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: Just gracefully balding.

231
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, because I'm not certain that he's going full

232
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: bald you.

233
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it was it was, it was thinning certainly

234
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: at the end of his Nuggets tenure. He had a

235
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: little bit of a flat top, but I decided to

236
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: come on home. I think it's that his beard is

237
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: getting longer at the same time that's really enhancing the Balding.

238
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 3: Look, but that team as they start, it's Udoka just

239
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 3: putting all that confidence in guys. Like you said, Fred

240
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 3: van Vliet comes. I like how he's not taken every

241
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: single shot, like he is just setting up his team.

242
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 3: And Jalen Green has been awesome. His percentages have been

243
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: really good. I know he had a bad game against

244
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 3: the Nexts, but his percentages are great. He's just he's

245
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 3: just doing what he can do. Udoka, you can see,

246
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 3: just do what you can do, Fred Vliet, don't shoot

247
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 3: a ton from inside the arc because you're not gonna

248
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 3: have a good percentage. It's two point percentage not good.

249
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 3: But the same thing to you, Jalen Green, when you

250
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 3: get the ball at the free throw line, just go

251
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 3: buy everybody. And he's doing a great job at that.

252
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 2: And Dylan Brooks too. He's taking twenty shots a game.

253
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: He's like picking his spots.

254
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 3: That dude has fifty three percent from three point n

255
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 3: and al shehnguon the Rockets broadcast team doesn't want to

256
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 3: call him Alper and Changun. They just call him al

257
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 3: Al And yeah, that was awesome him going up against

258
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 3: the Okitch and Jabari Smith. They look like a real team.

259
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,199
Speaker 2: One of my favorite things in the NBA is when

260
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 2: a team that's been bad for a long time and

261
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 2: like young guys that have been there and gone through

262
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 2: L after L after L, when they finally get some

263
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 2: success in the league and just you see how happy

264
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 2: they are to be actually winning games. Like there's a

265
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 2: clip of Sheng Gun coming off the floor last night,

266
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 2: you know, high fiving the fans and like it says,

267
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 2: if you want a championship, because it's like, it's gotta

268
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: feel like that. There's a lot of L's since he's

269
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: been there, a lot of these young guys, and now

270
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: they're getting some succept they have a nice home schedule.

271
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: They're taking advantage it, though and racking up this winning streak,

272
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 2: which is pretty incredible.

273
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 1: What did you say, it's at six sixth straight.

274
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 2: That's awesome.

275
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 3: That is awesome.

276
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 2: I just love. I love when you see that, when

277
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, even if this doesn't last all season,

278
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 2: it probably won't, but it's cool moment for at least

279
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 2: they're like, oh, this is what this is what it

280
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: feels like to win some games.

281
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 3: Here in the NBA.

282
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, six wins in a row. They've all been in November.

283
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: I would have to guess that they haven't had a

284
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: six win month in the past three seasons, not since

285
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: Harden left town. Six wins in a month would be

286
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: a lot for a team that's winning twenty to twenty

287
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 1: five games. So yeah, they're cooking right now. There's obviously

288
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: early season success stories that don't translate for the entirety

289
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: of the season, but let's enjoy it while it's good.

290
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: Al Shengo no els.

291
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 2: For no no all right. My winner of the weekend,

292
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 2: Tyrese Maxey and the seventy six ers talk about win streaks.

293
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: Maxie scored a career high fifty points as the Sixers

294
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: improved to eight and one with their eighth straight victory.

295
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 2: They beat the Pacers one thirty seven one twenty six

296
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: on Sunday. You know you're playing the Ers when the

297
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 2: final score looks like that. Maxi twenty for thirty two

298
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: from the field, seven boards, five assists. He had three

299
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 2: blocks beautiful chase down block on Buddy Heel met him

300
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: at the rim. His previous I Maxi's was forty four

301
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 2: against the Raptors last season, but yeah, fifty now. He

302
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 2: raised his average to I believe twenty eight points, six

303
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: points per game. This guy is an All Star lock

304
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 2: if he stays healthy. And it was pretty cool after

305
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 2: the game. Sort of weird timing with our guy Tassi

306
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 2: coming back, but Maxi dedicating the performance to the Sixers.

307
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: Kelly who Bradge Junior, who was hit by a car

308
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 2: over the weekend. He suffered a fractured ribs, got some

309
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 2: injuries to his hip and his right leg. But the

310
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 2: good news is he was released from hospital. That's fantastic news.

311
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: And by all reports, yes he'll miss some significant time,

312
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 2: but he might be back this season. But Maxi was like,

313
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 2: I don't care about the fifties, like just talking about

314
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 2: Kelly Oubradgejunior after the game. But here we are six Ers.

315
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: This is like their best start to a season since

316
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 2: they went to the finals back in two thousand and

317
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 2: two thousand and one, back in the Iverson Kemi Mtumbo

318
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 2: days when they got him so well they got Iverson

319
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 2: and tumble out there right now Yeah, basically yeah up

320
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: versions right now.

321
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: I mean Maxie's putting up Lebron numbers right now. All

322
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: Star is like you're saying, it's a lot. He could

323
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: be All NBA if they keep winning this many games

324
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: and he keeps producing like he has great basketball player

325
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 1: and it seems like a great dude. And obviously Embiid

326
00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 1: loves him. He dubbed him the franchise after is that

327
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: better than the process? I mean, like yeah, ranking wise,

328
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: I would think so yeah, so interesting. A hierarchy of

329
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: nicknames there coming from Embiid, but he loves playing alongside him.

330
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: The vibes are good. It sucks what happened to Kelly Ubray,

331
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: but fortunately for the seventy six ers, they made a

332
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: trade just a week ago to bring in guys who

333
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: can at least substitute in Yeah for Kelly Ubray in

334
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: Batoum and Covington, who've actually been getting some decent minutes

335
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: here for Philly.

336
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, Maxie Man when his three ball is going and

337
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 2: even talks about like I hadn't had it like really

338
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 2: going yet until this one where he caught fire. He

339
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 2: feels unstoppable when you have to like like what do

340
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 2: you do? He's too fat, You can't get too close

341
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 2: to him. He's blowing by you, and he can finish inside.

342
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: He's got a great touch of off the glass high

343
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 2: and like like full speed, like that's really difficult to do.

344
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: And then then he's got like when he's pairing it

345
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 2: with the hardened like step back three or side step three,

346
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: it's like, what do you like? I don't know how

347
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: you stop it. And it was cool at the end

348
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: of the game in Beid like you got forty seven,

349
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 2: Come here, man, come here, franchise, we're getting you fifty.

350
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 2: Like he was demanding he take that shot, like give

351
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 2: him the ball and you know, and then he let

352
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: it rep and he got to fifty with the three

353
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 2: and beats.

354
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 3: Gotta feel good going into the postseason with this guy

355
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 3: being his guy. Why the heck not. I think he's

356
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: part of the reason why they traded James Harden in

357
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 3: the first place. I know part of the reason was

358
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 3: because Harden wanted to leave and everything that happened there.

359
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 3: But Tyre's Max, he couldn't become what he is right

360
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 3: now with James Harden there because he needs the ball

361
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 3: in his hands and he's just looking so incredible. He

362
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 3: just couldn't become what he wanted to be with James

363
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 3: Harden there, and he looks great. It's it's it's just

364
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 3: it's just that the blocks, as you said, that block

365
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 3: on Buddy Heeled What a block? Did you see him

366
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 3: pick t J McCown, Yes, Oh that was yes, I

367
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 3: didn't The close up showed all the biceps and shoulders

368
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: on Tyre Smacks. I didn't know he was that muscular.

369
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 3: But that was a tough guy to run through too.

370
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 3: He just does it all. He's great.

371
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a coincidence here that two of

372
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 2: our winners of the weekend, the Houston Rockets and the

373
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 2: Philadelphia seventy six Ers, teams that either well, teams that

374
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 2: both employed James Harden and then had maybe concerned that

375
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:24,959
Speaker 2: he was coming back to the team one of them

376
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 2: lose them anyway, We'll get to the Clippers and lose

377
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 2: through the weekend. Let's do another round here, sort of

378
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 2: quickly task. Who else you have a winner of the weekend?

379
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 3: Oh, Julius Randall. Because I was watching the Knicks and

380
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 3: the Hornets. It was a Sunday afternoon. It was a lovely,

381
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 3: lovely affair, and I was extremely happy for Julius Randall

382
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 3: because pregame during the national anthem, he had both his

383
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 3: kids right with him, which was really really cute. He

384
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 3: was holding one and then had arm around the other one,

385
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 3: and what was great is that he had to work

386
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 3: for the next two and a half hours, so somebody

387
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 3: else had to take care of them, probably his loved

388
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 3: one who had those babies, I'm sure, but that's that's wonderful.

389
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 3: And also I think just the note about Julius Randall

390
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 3: and how he's stunk to start the season, he really

391
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 3: he hasn't been himself, but that's because he had an

392
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 3: ankle surgery this past offseason. And the quote is bouncing around.

393
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 3: He said, I had surgery four and a half months

394
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 3: ago and it's a lower extremity surgery. So to think

395
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 3: that I would come into the season and just be

396
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 3: Julius off the bat is kind of naive. He's back baby.

397
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 3: Twenty seven percent through this first six games, not good,

398
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 3: but the last three games he has come alive. They've

399
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,239
Speaker 3: been his best games, and it's probably just because he's

400
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 3: feeling good. He had twenty seven to twenty three before

401
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 3: Sunday's game against Charlotte, where he wasn't didn't feel like

402
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 3: he was excellent, but it was his first fifty percent

403
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 3: game of the season, shooting fifty percent first time. He

404
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: had twenty three points, so I think he is starting

405
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: to feel better. This next team, it's a good team

406
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 3: to watch. Tibbs has them believing, you know, Jalen Brunson

407
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 3: gives it to our j Barrett when Julius Randall isn't

408
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 3: feeling good, and then Juli Randall will come it and

409
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 3: Mitchell Rock and his plane out of his head. So

410
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 3: it feels like a playoff e team even though they

411
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 3: haven't been absolutely excellent. Julius Rentald has not been himself,

412
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 3: so I'm not naive. I think he'll be best. I

413
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 3: think he will be his best, you know, as these

414
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 3: these weeks come on, he looked great.

415
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 2: They were a big game tonight against the Celtics. Nicks.

416
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Celtics.

417
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

418
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 2: Both team's obviously over five hundred five and four New

419
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 2: York Boston seven and two. Such the good ones on

420
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 2: NBA TV tonight, early start. Who else you got?

421
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: Luka Doncich gets a winner for cooking the Clippers on Friday.

422
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: It was an IST game, but not on an IST

423
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,639
Speaker 1: court due to manufacturing issues. Something always happens with the

424
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: courts when the Mavericks are going to be playing on

425
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter what it looks like. The Luca

426
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: completely owns the La Clippers. I don't know if anybody

427
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: did the Wikipedia entry for owned by switched out balmer

428
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: for donk, but it could have. It could have been done.

429
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: Forty four points for Luca on Friday Night seventeen for

430
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: twenty one shooting. Multiple dances from Luca in this one.

431
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: He was celebrating because he was on fire. He should

432
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: have had more, got to forty two points with seven

433
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: point fifty left in the third quarter, but that shot

434
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: put the Mavericks up by thirty two, so not much

435
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: needed from Doncic in the fourth quarter. He came in

436
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: for like three minutes in the fourth quarter to put

437
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: the game away, and basically as soon as he checked in,

438
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 1: he completely put the game away, to the point where

439
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: Kendrick Perkins, Oh yeah, he did some weird things to

440
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: a chair that celebrating this game. It was a horny

441
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: weekend from the NBA media. But Doncic, now, it's wait.

442
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 3: To find out what you're talking about. Actually he was.

443
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: He was like slapping a chair with his belt. That's

444
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 1: what Luka Doncic does to the I don't know, I

445
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: was getting a secretary vibes. You guys, remember that movie

446
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: was that James Spader and Maggie Gillenhall. It's a classic

447
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: classic movie.

448
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 2: Definitely, that's the type of detailed breakdown I'm looking at

449
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 2: from my NBA analyst.

450
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: That's exactly right. It was a secretary asked minutes from

451
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 1: Luca Dunche. But this guy's averaging thirty three point two

452
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: points per game against the Clippers across the regular season

453
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, only Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan score

454
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: more against the single opponent in their career. WHOA, Yeah,

455
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: four teams for Will, two for for Will for and

456
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: then two for MJ. And then obviously the Clippers for Doncic.

457
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,159
Speaker 1: Because we've seen them in the playoffs, in the bubble,

458
00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, on their court in the regular season,

459
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: in the end season tournament, it does not matter. Luca

460
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: is going to light up the Clippers. Follow that game

461
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: up with a mere thirty points in twenty eight minutes

462
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: on Sunday in a win against New Orleans, and watch out,

463
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving is coming around too. Against the Clippers on Friday,

464
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,679
Speaker 1: twenty seven points, five threes and twenty eight minutes for Kyrie.

465
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: Then against the Pelicans thirty five points, seven threes in

466
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: twenty nine minutes for Kyrie. These guys are completely cooking

467
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: right now. Dallas number one and three pointers made, three

468
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 1: pointers attempt did and three point percentage. That's a good

469
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: way to start your offense. So yeah, Luca, I don't know.

470
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: He's not on the Basketball Reference leaderboard, the MVP tracker,

471
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: he's not number one right now. Feels like he could be.

472
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he gets the votes anyways, because

473
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: the Matt Burricks look completely unstoppable. It Jokich is still

474
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: a top It goes jokicch Embiide, Maxie.

475
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I knew Maxie was high, very high.

476
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

477
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 2: I mean the guys out of the wins twenty nine

478
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: points per game. Yeah, and on a winning team, all right, Luca.

479
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 3: Him, Well, I just had to google Maggie Jillenhall. Didn't

480
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 3: know that she was Jake Jillenhall's sister.

481
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 2: You didn't know that.

482
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: I thought it was just a common last name.

483
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 3: Very lame. I just like saying it twice.

484
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: Still, Jillenhall. I guess they gotta have a dad, Eric Gillenhall.

485
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 3: Look it up. Yeah, what's their dad's name? Well, here's

486
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 3: something else that you should know. The Mavericks are the

487
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 3: fifth fastest team in the NBA. Yeah, you don't think

488
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 3: about that when you think about Luca Dodgers. She hasn't

489
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: been anywhere close to that since coming into the league.

490
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 3: They are evolving. They are getting the most out of

491
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 3: every Derek on their roster, and Lively and Jones Jr.

492
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 3: Like they are going hard.

493
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: Please please tell me it's Derek Steven.

494
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, Steve.

495
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 1: Tell you that.

496
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 3: So I got a note, So Bill jill Inhales, that

497
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 3: is that? Is that a person?

498
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 2: I let me go next year?

499
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: We our winners.

500
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 2: The Miami Heat are a winner of the weekend. I

501
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,239
Speaker 2: should say we're gonna have to take a break here

502
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 2: soon because we'll all just keep going and going and going.

503
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 2: But the Wolves could be in the mix. I know

504
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,200
Speaker 2: there's a lot of other teams, a lot of other performances.

505
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 2: You tell us in the chat, But I'm giving the

506
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 2: Miami Heat a winning the weekend. They went back to

507
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 2: back games on Saturday and Sunday. Saturday night, they defeat

508
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 2: the Hawks here in Atlanta without Tyler Hero who's going

509
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 2: to be missing a couple of weeks with an ankle injury,

510
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 2: and without Jimmy Butler in that game. On Sunday, they

511
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 2: defeat the Spurs in San Antonio, so both on the

512
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: road here again no Hero of course, and then no

513
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 2: Lowry in this game. They sort of rested him because

514
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 2: of the back to back situation. So they get both

515
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 2: these victories missing guys, and really the star was bam Adebayo.

516
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,719
Speaker 2: In two wins over the weekend, bam average twenty five

517
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 2: points per game, fourteen boards, five assists, two and a

518
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 2: half steals in a block. He shot nearly sixty percent

519
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: from the floor, He was almost perfect at the free

520
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 2: throw line, and he only turned the ball over three

521
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: times in those two games. This is a big guy

522
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 2: that has the ball in his hands a lot, so

523
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: that's a pretty impressive stat. But he got help on

524
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 2: Saturday Jimehawks junior career high twenty points. I thought he

525
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 2: looked awesome. He hit a couple threes, a couple sis.

526
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: He did work in the post. If you go watch

527
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 2: the highlights, like it's not just three pointers, like the

528
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 2: heat will find a mismatch and they'll give it to

529
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 2: a guy in the post, which is fun to watch.

530
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 2: In today's game, this guy, he's going to be like

531
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 2: you can just see it now. He's gonna be the

532
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 2: fourth or fifth best player on the championship team at

533
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 2: some point. I don't know if it's gonna be with

534
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: the Heat some other team. Lock me down or put

535
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 2: me down for him winning a title as the fourth

536
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 2: or fifth best player, probably starting with a team. And

537
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 2: then on Sunday it was Duncan Robinson. He scored twenty

538
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 2: six points. Josh Richardson revenge game for him, the Jeff

539
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 2: Green and Josh Richardson revenge games. He scored six in

540
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 2: the final two minutes. And so the Heat like they

541
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 2: just had these crazy runs in this game against the Spurs,

542
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,959
Speaker 2: like seventeen oh runs and another eighteen to five run,

543
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 2: another twelve oh run. So they came back from a

544
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 2: pretty big deficit two wins. Bam is playing the best

545
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 2: ball of his career right now.

546
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 3: He's happen. Yeah. Lock him in for an All Star

547
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 3: as well. Yeah, he's got to be.

548
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: He's never made All NBA, has he because there's too

549
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 2: many damn good centers.

550
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: He never got a third team I don't think he has.

551
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 2: He's a couple time All Star and he's made a

552
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 2: ton of All defensive teams. But I don't think he's

553
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: made all NBA. No, just pretty surprising.

554
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 3: He looks incredible when he's defending out on the perimeter

555
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 3: and he can steal balls like the way he's doing

556
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 3: it right now. That's a big five game winning streak

557
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 3: for the Miami Heat to be now six and four

558
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 3: because they start at one to four. It's it's one

559
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 3: of those like you said, the Wolves are doing really

560
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 3: well with their great center Rudy Gobert playing incredible six

561
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 3: game win streak. For them to go with the rocket

562
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 3: six game win streak, it's important to start it off

563
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,920
Speaker 3: like this. The Heat have found themselves pretty quickly.

564
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, because they won opening night, then they lost

565
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: a bunch in a row. Now they're on this this

566
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,240
Speaker 2: win streak here and like classic Heat, you know, it's

567
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 2: like Okay Hawkes Junior this game. Oh okay Duncan Robinson

568
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 2: this game, or Josh Richardson. It's like, it's amazing how

569
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 2: Spoe just continues to get the best out of these

570
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 2: guys and Bam is like they're he's like their best

571
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 2: player right now. Jimmy, Jimmy was there in the second game,

572
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: and you know it was fine, but it's really started.

573
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah for Jimmy, but Bam has picked

574
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 1: up the slack completely.

575
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 2: All Right, those are our winners. Let's take a break

576
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 2: and when we come back, we will talk about losers

577
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: of the NBA weekend. Okay, we've done the winners, and

578
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 2: you may have noticed that in the winners we did

579
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 2: not have our performance in the three and three tournament

580
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 2: this weekend. We'll explain that after the NBA stuff here, Trey,

581
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 2: why do you get a started NBA weekend losers?

582
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors get an NBA loser this weekend for

583
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: a couple of stinky losses, which, unfortunately for Golden State,

584
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: we're pretty similar. I think very concerning if I'm a

585
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 1: Golden State fan. Saturday in Cleveland, the Warriors gave about

586
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: fifty points in the paint, turned the ball over twenty times.

587
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: Steph Craig, nice game, thirty points, only went nine to

588
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 1: twenty four from the field. That's a bad shooting night

589
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 1: for Steph Curry. The big story on this one, it

590
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: was a weird tech for Draymond Green. Bizarre. According to

591
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 1: Steve Kerr, Draymond into the third quarter was really up

592
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 1: in the physicality. I thought he was kind of flying

593
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: around out there, putting body on body, but he took

594
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 1: it a little bit too far. Donovan Mitchell drives in

595
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 1: and gives him a little chicken wing. So coming back down,

596
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 1: Mitchell just veers into Draymond, knocks him down and immediately

597
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: starts pointing, Nana, nah, you gotta look at what he

598
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,719
Speaker 1: did before the refs went back to the future. Then,

599
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 1: when a couple of plays back, they saw the chicken

600
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: wing from Draymond gave him a tech, which was his

601
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 1: second tech of the game, which led to an injection.

602
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 1: Oddly enough, the Warriors started playing really well after that,

603
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: like that actually energized them. At the end of the

604
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 1: third quarter, they went on a nice little run, but

605
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: they gave it all back in the fourth quarter with

606
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 1: no Draymond out there to be quarterbacking their defense. Last

607
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: night basically the same stuff against the Timberwolves. Minnesota sixty

608
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,400
Speaker 1: two points in the paint. They were only nine seven

609
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 1: from three, but Golden State went twelve of forty three

610
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: under thirty percent. Steph Curry another huge game, thirty eight points,

611
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 1: this time eleven of twenty five, shooting forty four percent. Okay,

612
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: but not much else for the Golden State Warriors, which

613
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: is becoming a theme. Steph Curry has six thirty point

614
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: games this season. The rest of the Warriors have one

615
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: twenty point game for the entirety of the season. Who

616
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: do you think it was?

617
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 3: I read this, this was reading. I read this Marcus

618
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 3: Thompson article.

619
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

620
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 3: I do know who did it. I can't believe it's

621
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 3: not Andrew Wiggins. It's not Wiggins, he's been I mean,

622
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 3: it's a Bench's a guy from the bench.

623
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 2: Is it a Moody or a Kaminga or Sorrich saw

624
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 2: Rich Okay, I.

625
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: Think November three, Clay and Wiggins, like you're saying, are struggling.

626
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: Plays like sixteen points a game on fourteen shots, which

627
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,719
Speaker 1: looks better than Wiggins ten points a game on ten shots.

628
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,239
Speaker 1: He is just kind of invisible out there right now.

629
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,479
Speaker 1: The bench is inefficient. At least they are taking care

630
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: of the ball, and they're not always intive like they

631
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 1: have been recently. But basically it's becoming Steph Curry trying

632
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: to carry them to wins and it hasn't been happening

633
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: because somebody's got to do something. It's either got to

634
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 1: be Clay heating up it's got to be Wiggins given

635
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 1: a little bit more out there. Three straight losses though

636
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: for the Warriors, it's a pretty decent competition, but they're

637
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: trying to win a championship again this year. I guess

638
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 1: even more concerning would be that this was another home

639
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 1: loss last night for Golden State. Last year they couldn't

640
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: win on the road, which was a problem. But we're like,

641
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: you know, they're a team in disarray, A little bit

642
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: understandable so far, just one in three at the Chase

643
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: Center right now. You want to win your home games,

644
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: especially in the Western Conference where it's going to be

645
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: tight at the end of the year. So Curry playing

646
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: MVP level basketball, but it can't just be a one

647
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: man team.

648
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 3: Really.

649
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And what did you think about the Draymond Green,

650
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 2: you know, ejection there and I know he jumped on

651
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 2: was at Instagram and had a bunch of comments about it,

652
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: and like, like TK said, Steve Kerr was saying, I

653
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 2: didn't know you could even sort of go do that.

654
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,320
Speaker 3: No, I didn't know you could do that go back,

655
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 3: I guess. I guess they're just kind of change the

656
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 3: way games are officiated. How do you go back multiple plays?

657
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 2: Well, It wasn't really multiple plays more than tried to

658
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: say that, but it.

659
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 3: Was like two those two plays ago.

660
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I guess I mean, to me, it's almost

661
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: sort of the same I know, okay, it's almost the

662
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: same play. It happens, and then they come down and

663
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 2: Donovan Mitchell seeks him out and yeah, gives them the bump.

664
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,719
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, there's nothing much more to say than

665
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 3: that an ejection.

666
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: Fine, I guess, well it was because of the cause

667
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: of the tech. He had one in the in the

668
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: first half, right for arguing Yes, I mean he's like, okay, okay,

669
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: and now I'm in a team. Yeah. So yeah, that

670
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: was just I mean, that was just classic Draymond, and

671
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: he really was trying to get the team into it

672
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: because they played a pretty poor first half. I thought,

673
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: so second half he comes out, like I said, he's

674
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: smashing into people. He was trying to up the physicality,

675
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: give him some energy. It ended up working, but for

676
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: the longest time it was the retaliator is the one

677
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: who gets in trouble because you don't see the first play.

678
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: Now you're able to go back and see the first play.

679
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,479
Speaker 1: I also feel like Donovan Mitchell should have got more

680
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: than a common foul for like really just like yeah,

681
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: he's I mean, he chased them down from half court,

682
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: smashed into him. And then when it's instantly like I

683
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:14,479
Speaker 1: did it on purpose.

684
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 2: Yes, true, I'll give him this. He didn't come from

685
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 2: right behind into the back. Yeah, the move is to

686
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 2: hit him on the side.

687
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: That's true.

688
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 2: So you can sort of see it, you know, not

689
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 2: a Jokich Morris situation there, which you know, that's true.

690
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 2: It can go a lot more poorly in the lower back.

691
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 2: But you're right. He continued to play in the game.

692
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: He just got the one thing.

693
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,719
Speaker 3: It is classic Draymond because he said this reminds him

694
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 3: of the twenty sixteen Finals when he got suspended for

695
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 3: punching Lebron James in the testicles, where he got multiple

696
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 3: flagrant fouls throughout the postseason and then he was suspended.

697
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 3: It's something that Draymond likes to talk about. He likes

698
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 3: to talk about himself. That's fine. He also like to

699
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 3: talk about last year and how this team didn't have

700
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 3: any chemistry, and he said, this year we have kept it.

701
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 2: I wonder why they didn't have any chivastry.

702
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, sure, there's lots of infighting, and it's just

703
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 3: surprising how they've lost three games in a row because

704
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 3: they did look great to start the season. But Andrew Wiggins, well,

705
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,719
Speaker 3: what's going on? To say? Clay okay, like he can

706
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 3: score fifteen sixteen, but Andrew wigans scoring ten percent or

707
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 3: ten points per game and he's shooting what fifteen percent

708
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 3: from three? He's just not right. There's something just not

709
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 3: right there. I mean he he literally hasn't scored twenty

710
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: points this season. I don't know what the heck is

711
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: going on unless there's some serious in fighting where they

712
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 3: don't get along, because that's just strange. Like Andrew Wiggins

713
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 3: is still, you know, in somewhat of his prime here,

714
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 3: some maybe going on. I don't know. It's really their

715
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 3: defense that's really really struggling.

716
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: Another quick loser from this Warriors game, Anthony Edwards had

717
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: another monster dunk home, got teed up for flexing. That's ridiculous.

718
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they gotta do something about that.

719
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 2: Yeah that was un Sorry I chose't.

720
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: It was awesome and a minor flex. I felt like, yeah,

721
00:32:58,880 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: I see.

722
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 3: He loves Duncan on that baseline yes.

723
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, baseline shoe oh jump just.

724
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 3: Like the Utah Watson abbie. We're over again. Yeah, sure,

725
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: Look he looks great. He looks great.

726
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 2: Another loser of the weekend, the Los Angeles Clippers. Clippers

727
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 2: losing streak has now reached five games after they lost

728
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 2: to the Grizzlies one oh five to one oh one

729
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: on Sunday afternoon. Clippers are zero to four with Harden

730
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 2: in the mix. Ziller breaking down the Harden on and

731
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 2: off court numbers over the last four games. I think

732
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 2: they're worth mentioning here. At the Knicks, Harden minus eighteen

733
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 2: in his thirty one minutes, the team was I should

734
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 2: say plus four in the seventeen minutes he was off,

735
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 2: okay against the Nets minus fifteen and thirty six minutes

736
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 2: with Harden on the floor, plus eight in the twelve

737
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 2: minutes he was off at the Mavericks minus six and

738
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 2: twenty nine minutes with Harden on the floor, minus twelve

739
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 2: in nineteen minutes with him off, and versus the Grizzlies

740
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: on Sunday a minus twenty eight in the twenty nine

741
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 2: minutes James Harden was out there on the floor, plus

742
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: twenty four in the nineteen minutes with him off, So

743
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: Clippers have not won Hardens minutes in any of the

744
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 2: games this year, and uh they've won the non Harden

745
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 2: minutes in three of the four. Now is it just

746
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 2: on him?

747
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 3: No?

748
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 2: I mean there's other starters out there with him, a

749
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 2: lot of other star guys. But this Clippers offense, I

750
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 2: don't know how much you guys have been watching with

751
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,800
Speaker 2: Hardened in the mix. It is just ground to a halt.

752
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 2: It's brutal to watch and it's bad, Like you can

753
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,240
Speaker 2: just see players thinking. It feels like, is it's supposed

754
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,320
Speaker 2: to be like, you know, me here or am I sacrificing? Like?

755
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,240
Speaker 2: What are what are we doing here? Are we running

756
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 2: with Russ? Are we slowing down with Harden?

757
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 1: Like?

758
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 2: What's what's the game plan? And Tylero is now getting

759
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: frustrated in postgame press conferences, He's dropping f bombs. Tylou

760
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 2: never does that, but it's it's bad.

761
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: Here apologize as soon as the iPhone.

762
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm sorry, but yeah, his thoughts here on Harden

763
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 2: with the clips and just this team in general.

764
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 3: That's the ugliest offense to watch. It's big time, even

765
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 3: though they have for incredibly talented players in their early thirties.

766
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 2: It's not it. There's a zero movement.

767
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 3: That's what Tyler said. James Harden's got to get more

768
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,479
Speaker 3: aggressive and get into the lane and pass the people.

769
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 3: But that's not James Harden. I know he is an

770
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 3: incredible passer. Yeah, but your offense is going to stop

771
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 3: with James Harden with the ball like it's gonna it's

772
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 3: gonna slow down. Oh yeah, that's just James Harden.

773
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. But the way Harden's playing is not the way

774
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 1: that he's ever played. Like he's just catching the ball

775
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: and waiting. He's just catching the ball and waiting at

776
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 1: the elbow, like waiting for some actions to happen. Uh.

777
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 1: Tyler mentioned that he wants to have Harden playing with

778
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,320
Speaker 1: a big at all time. That's like the best offense

779
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: they've had is hard and running screen and roll with Zoubots.

780
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: But now Mason Plumley is out for a few weeks

781
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: with a I mean, they kind of got lucky that

782
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: he didn't suffer a season I think knee injury. The

783
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: way Randall rolled into his leg that looks ugly. But

784
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 1: they're playing so slow, and Tyler says, we need ten

785
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: games before we judge this and before we try and

786
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 1: figure some stuff out. But he also said we need

787
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: everybody to screen harder and cut harder and run harder.

788
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 1: So I'm saying in another five games, he's gonna have

789
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: the same problems because who's gonna do that? Literally, who's

790
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: gonna do that? We actually need a little bit more

791
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: of turntaking here. I'm like, just give it to Kawhi

792
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: and let him cook a little bit, give it to

793
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: Paul George, let him cook a little bit. Too much

794
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: standing around from everybody.

795
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder what Low's move will be here, because

796
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: he's gonna have to do something like one of these

797
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: guys to go to the bench. I wonder if it

798
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 2: I honestly wonder if it should be hardened and let

799
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,879
Speaker 2: him more operate with the second unit. But yeah, that's

800
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 2: gonna be his decision. It's gonna be russer James in

801
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 2: theory going to the bench. How will either of those

802
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 2: guys deal with that? Will be fascinating to see. Uh,

803
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,720
Speaker 2: even like Russ and Harden, they like Tylerui is subbing

804
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 2: these guys offensive for defense in the down the stretcher.

805
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 2: This is a close game against the Grizzlies. That's what

806
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 2: he was doing. Which is pretty I mean, it's pretty

807
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 2: weird and wild. But there was one play in particular

808
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 2: stood out to me. normOn Paell had a good game

809
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 2: offensively for the c but he had a massive brain fart,

810
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 2: like doubt. This was like two minutes to go, the

811
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 2: the Believer inbounding underneath their basket and they just fell

812
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 2: as like the defense just fell asleep. I think Bob

813
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 2: Bain just gotta just got a layup, Yes he did,

814
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: Like it was simple pick or something was barely even

815
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 2: that strange.

816
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't seem like this team is totally good.

817
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 3: They have obviously a ton of talented guys, but they've

818
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 3: got four guys who need the ball to handle the

819
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 3: ball and to run an offense, and it just feels

820
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 3: like there's too much of that. Ye like, when when

821
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 3: is Russ going to allow James Harden to do his thing?

822
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 3: When is James Harden gonna allow Quiet to do his thing.

823
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 3: It's just it's hard, and obviously they're just getting into it,

824
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 3: but still it just feels like this is going to

825
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,799
Speaker 3: be a stagnant bunch of guys. And they're too small

826
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 3: when you look at they're they're they're lining up up

827
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 3: against real good teams up against the Denver team, you know,

828
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 3: like the Suns who are too small, like the Warriors

829
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 3: who feel like they're too small at times. This team

830
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:01,359
Speaker 3: is going to get beat by big teams. With Paul

831
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 3: George and Kawhi Leonard as their three to four and

832
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 3: not a great backup center at this point with the

833
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 3: Plumbley injury, they're just gonna get out rebounded. And so

834
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 3: that's that's gonna happen. That's their defense isn't gonna be

835
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 3: good enough. There's too many problems on this team, Tash,

836
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,279
Speaker 3: what you got for another loser that we can Going

837
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 3: back to the draft here, the two of the top

838
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 3: three draft picks have ankle injuries, which is strange. The

839
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 3: number two pick, Charlotte's Brandon Miller, turned his ankle against

840
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 3: the Knicks on Sunday, and he looked fine. He played

841
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 3: for a few more possessions, but he was out the

842
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 3: rest of the game and who knows how long that

843
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,439
Speaker 3: will be. Hopefully it's not a long term injury. He's

844
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 3: looked okay since he got the starting lineup job when

845
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 3: Terry Rozier went out, he's looked okay. What's a little

846
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 3: bit more worrisome his number three pick, Scoot Henderson. He's

847
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 3: got an ankle injury, bone bruising. According to the MRI,

848
00:38:54,160 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 3: I hope all of his stats are deleted from the

849
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 3: internet because they don't look good. No, Scoo does not

850
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 3: look great. He's he's shooting poorly from everywhere on the floor,

851
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 3: under ten percent from three to thirty five percent from

852
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 3: the floor. He started every game with the with the

853
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 3: Portland Trailblazers, them trying to go in the direction that

854
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 3: every single draft expert was thinking, Brandon Miller's going number two.

855
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 3: How the heck would he would anybody think that when

856
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 3: this guy is available, Scoot Henderson goes number three. But

857
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 3: he has looked worse than Brandon Miller. It's astonishing. He's

858
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 3: under nine points per game. I hope he can come

859
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 3: back in a few weeks because it looks like he's

860
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 3: come back in a few weeks. But he's got to

861
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 3: look like more like Scoot Henderson. He doesn't look like

862
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,160
Speaker 3: himself out there.

863
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 2: Ankle injuries to the Rooks, Trey we got, who else

864
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 2: you got?

865
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm giving them Milwaukee Bucks the loser of the weekend

866
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: because they got smoked by the Magic on Saturday Night,

867
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 1: but also really kind of a stealth Magic winner because

868
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: I thought they looked incredible and this Milwaukee scored a

869
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: season low ninety seven in the loss, went nine of

870
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 1: twenty nine from three, had nineteen turnovers, and gave up

871
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: fifteen offensive rebounds. When you are not able to get stops,

872
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: you cannot give the other team that many possessions. I

873
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: thought the defense, though, was maybe worse for Milwaukee. They

874
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 1: gave up sixty five points in the first half of

875
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: this loss, and so many of the baskets were just

876
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: straight cuts to the hoop from the Magic Pollo and

877
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: Franz Great Games twenty six and twenty four, respectively. Jalen

878
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: Suggs I felt like was a step ahead of every

879
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: Bucks guard in this game. He had twenty went to

880
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 1: the line ten times. They could not stay in front

881
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: of him. And then Moe Wagner was everywhere in this game,

882
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,919
Speaker 1: nineteen points, seven of nine field goals. He was hitting

883
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 1: the glass, he was back cutting, hitting threes. The Bucks

884
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: right now just look very confused about everything on the

885
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: defensive end, who they're guarding, where they're supposed to be.

886
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: Sometimes if they're supposed to be in zone, or if

887
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: they're supposed to be in man the back court of

888
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: Cameron Payne and Malik Beasley as got it be the

889
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 1: worst defensive back court in the league right now, skeets,

890
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: you could score on them, I think, just wait for

891
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: him to look away, That's all it is, and then

892
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: they completely forget the guys are there. This is the

893
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: first time the Magic have beat Milwaukee since March of

894
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,800
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. Can you guess the leading scorer for the

895
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: Orlando Magic in March twenty eighteen and their victory over

896
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 1: the Bucks?

897
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 3: Oh, baby, you cannot, We can't.

898
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: There's no way, There is no way.

899
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 3: Is it a third Wagner brother.

900
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 2: Mysterious Wagner Brothers?

901
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 1: That was Bill Gillenhall. Actually we should have guessed Jonathan Simmons.

902
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: Oh lord, Jonathan Simmons thirty five, Wow, thirty two for

903
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: DJ Augustine and Big Booch putting up twenty two to

904
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:49,359
Speaker 1: nine nine. Yeah. But uh, it's been a long time

905
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: since the Magic have beat the Bucks. They got a

906
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 1: couple of nice wins right now, you do, Magic, Just

907
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: beat the Bucks. Just beat the Lakers. Uh, they're coming around. Meanwhile,

908
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: Milwaukee is grapping, struggling like they just don't know what

909
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: they're doing. Uh, Damian Lillard missing time, I guess helps

910
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: or hurts on the offensive end, but right now it's

911
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: kind of just been Giannis carrying them on that side,

912
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 1: and then they don't know what they're doing at all defensively.

913
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 2: They play your bulls tonight.

914
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: That's a good time to get get right to play

915
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: the bulls who you never know. You never know. The

916
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: Bulls used to be like the Magic They could never

917
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: beat the Bucks, but they beat them twice in games.

918
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:27,360
Speaker 2: Well, there you go, there you go.

919
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 3: We'll see.

920
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

921
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 2: I mean I bring that up because you know, Milwaukee's

922
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,439
Speaker 2: five and four. Like let's say, let's say they lose

923
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 2: to Chicago tonight, fall of five hundred. I just want

924
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 2: to know how uh how hot's that seat getting there

925
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 2: for Adrian Griffin. I know this is just taking over

926
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 2: as a coach, but how long the leash is he

927
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,439
Speaker 2: given to get this team going?

928
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 3: Here?

929
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 2: With obviously the Damian Lillard acquisition and stuff like that,

930
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 2: you get twenty games, you get to the break us

931
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,959
Speaker 2: to get the whole season. Is it just all depend

932
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 2: on what Yannis thinks? Probably?

933
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I started thinking about Adrian Griffin, but at the

934
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 3: same time, it's sort of like what Yannis said when

935
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 3: he left the floor. He said, we don't know what

936
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 3: we're doing, and I think that just comes down to

937
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 3: the players for me. Anyways, they were five and two

938
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 3: before this horrendous two game losing streak here where Lebron

939
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 3: had or sorry, Lebron again has had a fifty plus

940
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 3: game and then a thirty five. And I thought it

941
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 3: was the backcourt that the campaign Beasley problems, but when

942
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 3: they went to the bench and Jake Crowder was out

943
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 3: there and Martin Bouchamp, those were the two guys that

944
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 3: really stunk defensively, guys then pack conton they had the

945
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 3: worst games of all of them. So it's it might

946
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 3: just be their depth, but or maybe they just don't

947
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 3: know what they're doing, which is really strange to say.

948
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 3: But you can see Chris Middleton just looking up at

949
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 3: the sky, just wondering what the heck is going on

950
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 3: with that team. They just don't know, which is really

951
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 3: where it did. And you see, yeah, the Magic were

952
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,800
Speaker 3: really aggressive and they're just going to the lane and

953
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 3: able to dunk stuff over and over and over again.

954
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 2: When I hear we don't know what we're doing. I

955
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 2: immediately think coaching, yes, really like what is the game plan?

956
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 2: What is our defensive strategy? Where are we going through things?

957
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 2: But I like, look, I don't think he's going to

958
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 2: be fired here the next couple of weeks or anything.

959
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 2: I think he's probably given a whole year to get

960
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: this team. The team's still going to be in the

961
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 2: postseason and all that. But I don't know, this hasn't

962
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 2: been hasn't given us a lot of hope here early

963
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 2: on in the season, like they're getting waxed by guards.

964
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 2: They played.

965
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: They played one way forever to the point where we're like,

966
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: you gotta try something else, Budenholzer, But maybe they should

967
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 1: just go.

968
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,799
Speaker 2: They sort of have been changing their defensive strategy back

969
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,439
Speaker 2: to a little bit more broke, stay back. Yeah, Okay,

970
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,560
Speaker 2: a couple other losers of the weekend here, got to

971
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 2: get your take on what happened in the Celtics Raptors game.

972
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 2: I don't know who's the loser from this situation, So

973
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,800
Speaker 2: you tell me. I'll give you the situation. Though. On Saturday,

974
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 2: Joe Missoula he called a coach's challenge with the Celtics

975
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 2: up twenty seven points over the Raptors with three point

976
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 2: thirty nine to go in the game. Some people believe

977
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 2: this is a basketball crime of the highest order. Raptors

978
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 2: guard Dennis Shruder was not happy, told reporters after the game,

979
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 2: you shouldn't disrespect us like that. Darko was pissed off

980
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 2: the Raptors head coach in the game. It was like

981
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 2: a little bit of like, what are you doing here, Joe?

982
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: What's going on? Joe?

983
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 2: You're you're killing us. This is you know, this is

984
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 2: in bad taste. This is disrespectful.

985
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 1: You know.

986
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,359
Speaker 2: The flip side is shut up Raptors, like you're getting

987
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 2: your asses hand into them, Like he's still trying to coach.

988
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 2: Do you have a take on this? Like if you

989
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 2: had to give a loser of the weekend to this,

990
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 2: do you just give it to the entire thing? Is

991
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 2: it more on Joe Mizzoula for calling the time out?

992
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 2: Is it more on the Raptors for whining about it?

993
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 3: I think I think they're both winners. I love it.

994
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 3: I love Dennis Shruder getting mad because this feels like

995
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 3: a Denis Shruder thing to do. He yets angry and

996
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 3: the Raptors will find their way. Not in that game,

997
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:44,240
Speaker 3: because they got this struck.

998
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 2: They play again soon.

999
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 1: I think they play it fairly soon Friday.

1000
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm good. I'm good with winners.

1001
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 2: What do you what do you got to Yeah, how

1002
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 2: do you feel about this?

1003
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: Well? I remember Jack Armstrong laughing at Jim Boylan for

1004
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: calling a late time out like this. The balls were

1005
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 1: obviously down, so turn about. It's fair play. Raptors are losers.

1006
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,720
Speaker 2: Had to get your take on it. Also, you already

1007
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 2: slipped it in. I gotta get a loser of the

1008
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 2: weekend of the Mavericks in season tournament court. Whoever was

1009
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 2: in charge of that. It was delayed because of an

1010
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 2: issue something with a manufacturing defect. They said the playing

1011
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 2: surface required more more work to meet league standards, So

1012
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 2: they didn't play with their is T court on Friday night.

1013
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 2: They just had another one.

1014
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. They threw a sticker on it. Yeah, sticker in

1015
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,600
Speaker 1: the corner. Actually looked decent. It was like their their

1016
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 1: alternate court that matched their like black jerseys. Yeah, just

1017
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 1: comical stuff. Yeah.

1018
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 3: The Grizzlies in season court, in season tournament court. It's

1019
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,760
Speaker 3: my favorite one, the Grizzlies one. The Grizzlies one because

1020
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 3: it's sort of a neutral color on the outside and

1021
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 3: really colorful on the strimmage. Yep, I'm down with that.

1022
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,080
Speaker 3: I think that's perfect.

1023
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 2: You know, like the Rockets one where it's so it

1024
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 2: was all red, but then you've got a very bright blue.

1025
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 3: That looks that would be tough to play on. Yeah,

1026
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 3: working for the Rockets, I guess when you get when

1027
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 3: you see the camera close ups, I'm I just I

1028
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 3: don't think I could step on that. I feel like

1029
00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 3: they fall into it looks really strange.

1030
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 2: Also to us a loser of the weekend, not for

1031
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 2: the three on three tournament, yet we jinxed Mike Conley. Yeah.

1032
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 2: On Friday show. Well, I guess okay, I'll take the

1033
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 2: blame for this one. Mike Conley pointed out I had

1034
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 2: one turnover in two hundred minutes of action. We made

1035
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 2: a short about it. It was great, great traction, great engagement.

1036
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 2: People are like, wow, that's an amazing stat and then

1037
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 2: what happens that night. Mike Conley has four turnovers in

1038
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 2: that one game, So so much for that incredible uh,

1039
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 2: you know, assistant turnover ratio. It's still good. But sorry, Mike, sorry,

1040
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 2: we had to point out that you only had one turnover. Yeah,

1041
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 2: that came forty three seconds into the season. You hadn't

1042
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 2: had one since and yeah, yeah he got I guess

1043
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 2: you'd give Chris Paul maybe a loser weekend too to

1044
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 2: see him rolling into Mike Conley's legs. Yeah, they were

1045
00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 2: not apparently happy about that. Minnesota Timberwolves locker room was

1046
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 2: talking about it because it's Chris doing that thing where

1047
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,240
Speaker 2: you're like, you know he's going he's hitting the ground

1048
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 2: for the ball, but it looks like he's also purposely

1049
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 2: trying to roll into the guy going for it in

1050
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 2: this case, Mike Conley. I mean, we've debated about this

1051
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 2: a lot, like the idea of like is are you

1052
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 2: allowed to go for the ball when it's on the ground?

1053
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:19,279
Speaker 1: We can?

1054
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 2: You know, this one was dirty, I have to agree,

1055
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 2: because he does turn into him.

1056
00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 1: Compare it to Randall and Mason Plumbley. That one was

1057
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: not like that was Randall just diving at the ball

1058
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: and Plumbley's legs were there. It sucks that it happens,

1059
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: but that was pure basketball right there. This one was

1060
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 1: like Chris Paul dives for the ball and then launch

1061
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: launch over Yeah.

1062
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:42,399
Speaker 2: I thought, yeah, luckily, you know, Mike Conley wasn't hurt.

1063
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 2: But our final loser of the weekend, it's NBA adjacent,

1064
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:49,720
Speaker 2: it's US in our three and three tournament on Sunday, TK, myself,

1065
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 2: Eshua Kid, one of his friends, shout out to Colby,

1066
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 2: here's the squad man.

1067
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 3: We looked great.

1068
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,480
Speaker 2: Uh this was after we went h and four and

1069
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 2: before we took off our pin and packed it up

1070
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 2: and went home. Rough day for your boys, But uh, yeah,

1071
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,879
Speaker 2: we were playing some decent competition. The TK was doing

1072
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 2: some deep dives on some of the teams we were playing.

1073
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 1: And yeah, they were good. They tagged a bunch of

1074
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,439
Speaker 1: guys U on the on Instagram afterwards, so I threw

1075
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 1: every one of their names plus basketball into Google to

1076
00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: see just how much better than they they were than

1077
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,879
Speaker 1: we were, And it was a lot. We're talking about

1078
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 1: the all time leader in games played at Georgia Tech.

1079
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 1: He had a thrunk on us in probably three threes

1080
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,000
Speaker 1: from the corner. Yeah, yeah, we got out.

1081
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 2: We tried to get out of the way for the throw.

1082
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 2: Was like, he's about to dunk this.

1083
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:41,959
Speaker 1: By the way, I know I wasn't in the play

1084
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,520
Speaker 1: because he left me behind at the three point Live

1085
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 1: on his way to the basket. Oh yeah, it was

1086
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 1: ugly the team that we lost to in the playoffs.

1087
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:51,760
Speaker 2: Ye playoffs.

1088
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we were zero and three, but we were in

1089
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 1: the play We made it. We made it. We had

1090
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: to battle back and it was not happening. They're like

1091
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 1: a professional team that travels literally around the world playing

1092
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 1: three on three tournaments. This one for them was to

1093
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 1: build chemistry and continuity. Afterwards, I went up to one

1094
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: of their guys, nice dudes, like even break a sweat

1095
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 1: in this one. He's like, no, no, uh yeah. If

1096
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: you see the picture, you'll notice three gray beards on

1097
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: our team. I think the only three gray beards in

1098
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: the gym yesterday.

1099
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were unfortunately the smallest team, even though we

1100
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,320
Speaker 2: had Trey, I mean trading a lot of the games

1101
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 2: was I don't know, he would have been the smallest

1102
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 2: guy on somebody.

1103
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 1: I think I was the smallest big guy that was there.

1104
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:36,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got.

1105
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 1: Called me a bucket.

1106
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 2: Didn't even know we had this.

1107
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I misssh he stepped out. Oh ah, this is

1108
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 3: exciting stuff. Look at there.

1109
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 1: We go to work tkah.

1110
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, for your podcast, listeners were showing the rare highlights.

1111
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 1: Man, this is actually the power of the edit.

1112
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I regret not being there. I wanted to come

1113
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 3: see you guys, But this is great. Maybe maybe we

1114
00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 3: should watch the whole thing, like when you guys get embarrassed.

1115
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 3: Do we have any footage of that?

1116
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 2: Well, apparently being the travels around the world that we

1117
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:12,720
Speaker 2: did lose to in our final game, they were filming

1118
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 2: the whole thing. It was actually my best game. I'd

1119
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 2: love to see that footage. We had a couple of

1120
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 2: nice foters actually, so if those guys could get in

1121
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 2: touch with me, I would love to have that. But man,

1122
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, yeah, we were the oldest team there,

1123
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 2: we were the smallest team there, and we were the

1124
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 2: whitest team there. Uh and uh that's right. Yeah, that

1125
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:33,479
Speaker 2: all up, And uh it was not great. We tried,

1126
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 2: we tried, we gave us, we gave it a go.

1127
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,640
Speaker 2: We didn't get well, No, there was one game we

1128
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 2: got absolutely destroyed.

1129
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't worry about that. Their their point guard average

1130
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: fifteen a game for Old Dominion.

1131
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 2: Played playing college act professional.

1132
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 1: The only game I actually feel bad about. We should

1133
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,359
Speaker 1: He actually might have been there at Basemore Era. He's

1134
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 1: probably after judging stats wise, but the first game. I

1135
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,920
Speaker 1: feel like, I don't know if we should have won,

1136
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 1: but that was the one we had a chance to win.

1137
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 1: Feels bad to lose to a team of free agents

1138
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: literally just random dudes who came to play basketball. But

1139
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: also we play together, Ashton Coleby played together, but we'd

1140
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 1: never played together, that's true. At the same time, we'd

1141
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:15,960
Speaker 1: obviously us at least, had never played this three on

1142
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:19,000
Speaker 1: three style, which was very fun. It was awesome, the

1143
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 1: FEBA three on three style. Sorry three x three, you

1144
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: gotta say that these days it was cool.

1145
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, cool. You don't like, you don't check the ball.

1146
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 2: It's NonStop.

1147
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 1: You score.

1148
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,800
Speaker 2: As soon as you score, the other team grabs the

1149
00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 2: ball and you just got to make sure you clear

1150
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 2: it out the three point line. But they can dribble out,

1151
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:35,879
Speaker 2: they can pass it out, and then you're like you're

1152
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,799
Speaker 2: live right away. It is NonStop. Like I was saying,

1153
00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 2: I was more tired playing this style of a three

1154
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:44,719
Speaker 2: x three than I was playing full court, because like

1155
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,800
Speaker 2: full court, you're jogging, you're taking a little break here.

1156
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:48,160
Speaker 3: There, not this man.

1157
00:52:48,440 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 2: You score, you're like, hey, yeah I scored, and you're like, oh,

1158
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:54,239
Speaker 2: your guys wide open. To the corner like a shit.

1159
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:55,359
Speaker 1: Well it goes.

1160
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 2: They got two points to my one layup. So anyway,

1161
00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 2: it was a lot of fun and it was for

1162
00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 2: a good cause. All the money, all the proceeds going

1163
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 2: to the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Foundation. So thanks to

1164
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 2: ESH for putting that together. Thanks to Colby for having

1165
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 2: TK and I on the team. Sorry we couldn't get

1166
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 2: us a victory. Maybe next year, Yeah, next year for sure.

Speaker 2: And then one more I saw this it made me

1187
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 2: laugh from Rohan. He tweeted, my brother just said Spoe

1188
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 2: and Pop should have done a polo shirt exchange after

1189
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:19,120
Speaker 2: the game.

1190
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:20,399
Speaker 1: L m ao.

1191
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 2: You know, we see a lot of players do it

1192
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: with their jerseys. I'd love to see coaches do it

1193
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 2: with their polos. Remember those guys that did it in Vegas?

1194
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love that. Yeah.

1195
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:34,320
Speaker 2: There they are exchanging their very colorful dress shirts because

1196
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 2: they had a great night out in Vegas. Jersey swap

1197
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 2: game respects game. That's one of my favorite photos. God,

1198
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 2: I love that. But yeah, why not we should get

1199
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,719
Speaker 2: coaches doing it, you know, sp Spo Pop taking out

1200
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:49,800
Speaker 2: their pulls and holding them up. They're on two opposite

1201
00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:52,400
Speaker 2: poles of how a polo shirt should fit.

1202
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 1: That's right. Eric likes it trim and Pop likes it oversize. Yes,

1203
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,240
Speaker 1: maybe they should try a formal Fridays got of suits

1204
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: for the n season tournaments on Fridays only.

1205
