28
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,520

45
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,760

46
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: you know, on earlier this week or over the weekend,

47
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: we lost a legend.

48
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 2: Bill Walts, the Great Bill Walton passed away at seventy one. Yeah,

49
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 2: far too far, too soon.

50
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did not realize that he was battling cancer,

51
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: so that had any as a bit of a surprise.

52
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: You know. One of the great commentators too. I still

53
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 1: think throw down big Man, still like one of my favorites.

54
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 2: One of the most unique, one of the great commentators.

55
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 2: My dad was friendly with him. My dad coached in

56
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: the league and I once overheard them talking to each other.

57
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 2: My grandfather was also really close to him.

58
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, said he was one of the greatest human beings.

59
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: I think.

60
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. But my dad was greeting him and was like,

61
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 2: how have you been billed? And he was like a

62
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: terrible I'm horrible at my job about commentating. I was like, yo,

63
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: you're like one of the one of the best. What

64
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: are you talking about?

65
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: Oh man, Yes, and one of my fellow Bruins. But yeah,

66
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: you know, rest in peace to Bill Walton. You will

67
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: be greatly missed.

68
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 2: A lot of great quotes, yeah, a lot of great

69
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 2: quotes from him circulating online too.

70
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. But I guess let's not waste anytime, huh.

71
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: Shall we just dive into.

72
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 2: I mean, there's nothing wrong with wasting a little time.

73
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about something else, man, Or what's your thought?

74
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: Which which supper.

75
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: League is coming up?

76
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 1: Who you got who makes your favorite barbecue sauce? I'll

77
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: go first. I like blood cells mild. That's just me. Yeah,

78
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: but any anything else beside besides the Eastern Conference from.

79
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: Doug McCain favorite Bill Walton quote a California, if the

80
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: Pilgrims landed here, the East coast would still be wilderness.

81
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 2: I love that. I love a little shade, intercoastal shade.

82
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: I'm an East Coast person, but yeah, there's a lot

83
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 2: at said for California. Anyways, I think that's the episode.

84
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: Thanks for coming on.

85
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: But man, that was that was a sweep.

86
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 2: Uh that was the sweep. That was like a very

87
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 2: entertaining sweep. Though like Game one was wild, one.

88
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: Was wild gave me a bit of false hope, I

89
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: must say. I was like, man, maybe no no, no.

90
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: No no no, no, Like how are you as a

91
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 2: sound like what's it like Warren to root for this team?

92
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 2: Like was that in doubt for you? Because for me,

93
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 2: as Halliburt was like looking at his hands like smiling

94
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 2: like we we're gonna do it.

95
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: I was like, poor, poor, unfortunate soul.

96
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and then they just like gave the ball

97
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: to the Celtics repeatedly, like they were like there was

98
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 2: a witch's curse on them. Did you have a feeling

99
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 2: that was coming?

100
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 4: Uh?

101
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 3: Not?

102
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 4: No, who's going to predict that.

103
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 3: I think obviously younger team fine, but them losing their

104
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 3: composure the way they did in Game one and then

105
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 3: ultimately again in Game three and again in Game four

106
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,919
Speaker 3: like it's and I guess maybe by that time we

107
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 3: should have expected it, and I think the Celtics themselves

108
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 3: obviously did, especially by Game four. But that first game,

109
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 3: you know, I was on edge, you know, like everybody else.

110
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 3: And the Celtics make a lot of people nervous, especially

111
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: their own fan base because I have a lot of

112
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 3: bad habits that they can't always get out of their

113
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 3: own way from. But in and is a good team,

114
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 3: so I'm not trying taking anything away from them. But

115
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: talent wise, the talent disparity was was fairly vast, and

116
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: that was the experience factor, and I think that's where

117
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: Boston was able to kind of get through there, especially

118
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 3: you know in that first game as Indiana just kind

119
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 3: of coughed the ball up every single position on the stretch.

120
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 1: There was crazy. It was crazy.

121
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 2: Right, there's a shakiness to everybody except the Celtics in

122
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 2: the in the Eastern Conference, the Knicks. Kind of like

123
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 2: if the Knicks had been able to not physically fall apart,

124
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 2: they were a little less shaky than everybody else. But

125
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: the Celtics are just, you know, highly competent. We've said

126
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 2: since about halfway into this season, that's the Celtics versus

127
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: the field. In my heart, it's always the Celtics versus

128
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: the field. There's only one team that I like consistently

129
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: rooted against it as the Celtics. But this is much Yeah,

130
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: but this is also a historically great team. I feel

131
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 2: like if another team like beats them, I feel like

132
00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 2: that's a massive upset, right, Like, that's they're like when

133
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 2: you look at their stats, it's it's kind of bonkers

134
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: how good they've been throughout the season, right, Like.

135
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: Warren, do you have confidence as a fan because you're

136
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: seeing the same thing like, well, objectively statistically like we

137
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: should be winning the championship, But there is there also

138
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: a part of you that doesn't want to fully obviously,

139
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: because anything can happen. But I know one Celtics fan

140
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: personally who is sort of like, I don't know why

141
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: this is a foregone conclusion. Not that they're saying like

142
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: not as aggressively, but they're like, look at the path here, like,

143
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: we're we're just blowing through teams. We're gonna get Chris

144
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Staffs back, and I just don't see. We're probably our

145
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: own worst enemy. Do you Are you operating from that

146
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: place too? Are you still leaving some objectivity to be like, well, no,

147
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: let's not get ahead of ourselves. Just because we're just

148
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: beating everybody up like it's nothing, doesn't mean it's nothing like.

149
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: That by nature, I'm you know, a little bit softer

150
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 3: in my approach, you know, and try not to be

151
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 3: like hopefully aggressive. I think ball is talent wise, they're

152
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 3: in position that they should win the NBA Championship. However,

153
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 3: we've seen enough of this team in this organization to

154
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 3: understand that, hey, sometimes they don't always do the right things.

155
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 3: They don't always do the things that they want they're

156
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: supposed to do. And I think what a lot of people,

157
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 3: in my opinion, have been mythed about in addition to

158
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 3: not liking them just in general, but it's like they

159
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 3: haven't won with style points, especially in this Eastern Conference finals,

160
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 3: Like with the.

161
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 4: Talent is spready being what it was.

162
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 3: It wasn't like all right, they just you know, beat

163
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 3: the dog crap out of Indiana, Like there was close games,

164
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 3: you know, nemhard who most of the NBA public still

165
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: had never heard of many people up for thirty points,

166
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 3: and it's like, all right, well this is you know,

167
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 3: this is your king, this is your elite team. So

168
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 3: I understand why, you know, people are bullish, if you will,

169
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 3: on their potential championship aspirations. But the talent is there,

170
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 3: And if I can just be not necessarily nerdy for

171
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 3: a second, but the biggest thing to me about where

172
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 3: the Celtics are this season is they actually believe in

173
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: Joe Mozula's message. Like whatever he got, whatever he had

174
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 3: going on last year, wasn't it that that wasn't the vibe,

175
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 3: that wasn't the mojo. They are singing his tune and

176
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: they are bought in in a way that I didn't

177
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 3: expect them to be. But I also want to credit

178
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 3: guys on the bench like Sam Pasel and Charles Lee.

179
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 3: They've done a really great job of kind of captaining

180
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 3: that ship, and everybody's really bought into that.

181
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 4: So this is why they should win. But fans of

182
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: being Dallas, you know, and you got the Kyrie stuff

183
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 4: going on there, and that crap never excites me.

184
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 3: Man, I really don't want to part any of the

185
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 3: Boston crowd and him going back and forth with them

186
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: as well too. I'd rather avoid that and keep it basketball.

187
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 3: But there's not a chance to hell that happens.

188
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: Do you think potentially that could work to whose advantage?

189
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: Could that work in? Like in terms of yeah, that

190
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: would just take him to another level?

191
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like why would he not play the villain?

192
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 3: You know, and that while he's been a great soldier

193
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 3: this season for the Dallas Mavericks if you will to,

194
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 3: but that doesn't mean he has to go out there

195
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 3: and stop stump on the Leprechaun and that's simply the villain.

196
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 3: I think it's just like, all right, you know, he'll

197
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 3: he'll die in on the salty booze of the Celtics

198
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 3: fan hitting clutch shots, left hand floaters and all that.

199
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 3: And then yeah, I mean the press conference just like,

200
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 3: you know, those are things that make me nervous. I think,

201
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 3: you know, when it comes to the Celtic faithful, the

202
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 3: team itself should have enough to kind of rack all that.

203
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 3: But some of this time, when it gets when it

204
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 3: gets this far, it's it is the intangible and it's

205
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 3: the little things that can get you over the proverbial hump.

206
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 3: And I wouldn't want to give Dallas Rocarve specifically any

207
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 3: extra motivation or advantage, right.

208
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. There were multiple points throughout this series where the

209
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: Pacers was like Nemhart would score and I would be like, wow,

210
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 2: I can't believe that went in. Surely that is the

211
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: last point that the Pacers for in this game, Like

212
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 2: it just didn't. I don't know. I was always surprised

213
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 2: at how close they were able to keep it.

214
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 3: Uh.

215
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: Indiana is an exciting team, I think I stand by.

216
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 2: I think they gave them a better series than we

217
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: would have seen from the Knicks, even though it was

218
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 2: a sweep. I just I don't know. They had a

219
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 2: lot of weapons. Some of the losses were really really close,

220
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 2: and again losing Halliburton some injury luck for the Celtics

221
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: in the sense of, you know, I guess eight of

222
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: the twelve wins they've gotten, the team they're playing has

223
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 2: been playing without their best player.

224
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 1: How do you look at that warrant because I feel

225
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: like that's like a narrative that a lot of fans

226
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: are grappled or you know, they're they're like, so what

227
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:24,199
Speaker 1: like it's because.

228
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 2: We're a lot of Celtics haters.

229
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean, but going by what she All said,

230
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 3: even in the outset, you know, it was they were

231
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 3: supposed to be here, so how they got here is

232
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 3: inconsequential really, but I think it's the aspect, well, we

233
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 3: didn't get to see them sweat enough. And from my

234
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: viewpoint pan or otherwise, the biggest knock on Boston has

235
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 3: always been their inability to close close clutch games.

236
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 4: Now, should they not be.

237
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 3: In a clutch game against the Indiana Pacers with Harra's

238
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 3: Haliburton out of the lineup, Probably, but nevertheless they were,

239
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 3: and they found ways and essen they were able to

240
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: kick it out. So that's the biggest knock that's been

241
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: on the team, especially from years past that you've seen

242
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 3: that maturity and that growth, and obviously Goazak, Drew Holliday

243
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 3: had been you know immense in being able to turn

244
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 3: that narrative around in the short time into playoffs. But yeah,

245
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 3: I get I get Riverboy's coming from. And I agree

246
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 3: with you Jack. In terms of Indiana, Jalen Brown said

247
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 3: on multiple occasions, it's like he was like, as if

248
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 3: they didn't play them five other times in the regular

249
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 3: season without playing tournament included the pace and you know,

250
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 3: pun intended, but they were running up and down in

251
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: the floor and yeah, for twenty third or twenty fourth

252
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 3: in pace this year, it's almost like they weren't prepared

253
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 3: for Indiana to do that at times, which doesn't make sense,

254
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 3: but you know, anyway, they were able to get back.

255
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: I don't know. I just know if they were physically capable,

256
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,319
Speaker 2: like the I don't know if the human body is

257
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: physically capable of the number of minutes, and then like,

258
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: you know, the number of minutes that everybody's putting in

259
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 2: across that whole postseason, and then you get into a

260
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 2: series against the Pacers, a seven game series against the

261
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: Pacers that takes a toll. I would imagine problem people

262
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 2: not me. I would have been fine because I'm in

263
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: a amazing shape. But so the one thing that is

264
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: giving Celtics haters hope that I think maybe shouldn't at

265
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: this point after watching that series. Is the theory that

266
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: NBA seven game series, playoff series finals series usually goes

267
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: to the best player, the team with the best player

268
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 2: like that. That's sort of an old kind of rule

269
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 2: of thumb in the NBA, and I think some people

270
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: I've been guilty of this, been like, well, Luca's better

271
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 2: than Tatum, so maybe maybe they have a shot. However,

272
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 2: I think the reason that that has happened in the

273
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 2: past is because other teams, like you kind of lose

274
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 2: your confidence down the end, or like you need somebody

275
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 2: who's just like Alpha, I'm gonna take the big shot

276
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: when things get kind of clogged up in a seven

277
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 2: game series, you need somebody who's just a bucket, who

278
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: can just get a bucket no matter what. I don't

279
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 2: see that being a problem for the Celtics. I really don't.

280
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 2: Like they have so many guys who are a clutch

281
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: and like Tatum could be clutch, but like he has

282
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: been like at various points, but like you know, Derek

283
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: White is clutch, like Jalen Brown is clutch, Like they

284
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 2: can get buckets down down the stretch. So I don't know,

285
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 2: I'm having a hard time. More like, as we get

286
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 2: closer to a series to the finals, I'm having a

287
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: tough time believing in that theory. But this might be

288
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: me reverse jinxing it and try trying to so.

289
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: I just remember, I think, wasn't it the game one

290
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: text threat or I was like, look.

291
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 2: At Tatum, he ain't clutched. Yeah, And then he started

292
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: making yeah yeah.

293
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: And I was like, see, I'm trying to motivate the

294
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 1: young man. That's going on, that's right. And then I

295
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: post that like crying face guy with the mask on

296
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: that's smiling and some clutch.

297
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 4: He did have ten points in that in that in

298
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 4: that overtime.

299
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely absolutely absolutely blew up in my face for sure.

300
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: If I shot that much, I'd have ten points in

301
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: the overtime. That's a spare Jack's there, you go.

302
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, like, where are you kind

303
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: of with the you know, I see a lot of

304
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: people too saying like for all the talk about you know,

305
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: Mitchell being out or Jimmy being out or Halliburton or whatever,

306
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: like no one's talking about Perzingis being out this whole time,

307
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: Like and that's also a story. I feel like the

308
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: Celtics are just so good that just wasn't necessarily a factor.

309
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: But where do you kind of come down on that.

310
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's obviously a bonus now because it sounds

311
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: like he's he says he'll be ready for the finals.

312
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, I'm not.

313
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 3: I would have been severely disappointed and you know, tiki

314
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 3: torches and whatever, you know, story Boston had they lost,

315
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 3: you know, in this conference finals or any of the

316
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: part of the playoffs just because they didn't have orzingis

317
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 3: like that's like he was brought in for the regular season,

318
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 3: but really to help solidify the championship, but especially with

319
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 3: these other teams on the industries that they have, he

320
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 3: was not needed. So I don't think it needs to

321
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 3: be a story. I understand, you know, I think you know,

322
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: the true Boston faithful if you will are gonna plamp

323
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 3: on everything that's that's adverse I think to their narrative,

324
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 3: if you will, I'm just not that.

325
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 4: Guy, you know, I can't. I can't be that for

326
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 4: the sake of a podcast either.

327
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, I think, you know,

328
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 3: porzinc Is coming back is a huge huge bonus. But

329
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 3: you also have to remember, and not that I'm trying

330
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: to qualify it, but he's ever been at the damn

331
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 3: Finals before. So five weeks off, your first game back

332
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 3: is NBA Finals, the first time you've ever been there

333
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 3: at that level of intensity, there's going to be a

334
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: semblance of Russ there. Whoever that is, whether that's Dallas

335
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 3: or if.

336
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 4: It ends up being Minnesota.

337
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 3: They so happened to come back, like you know, I

338
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 3: don't know how many minutes and how productive he'll be

339
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 3: even at that point. Well, hopefully by later stages of

340
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 3: that series, if it goes into later stages, he'd be

341
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 3: able to contribute in a way that he was brought into.

342
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, poor Zing gets revenge. Series is going to take

343
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: it to Dallas for trading him. That's what's happening.

344
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, well look everyone's going to have their own revenge narrative.

345
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: That's my impression of somebody I read it. All right,

346
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: let's uh should we take a break and yeah, turn

347
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: to the left out west, just making it flick turn.

348
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 2: You're looking at a map, I'm looking I'm facing north.

349
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, no, it actually doesn't really work anyways.

350
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 5: Uh, we're gonna take a break, We'll be right back,

351
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 5: and we're back.

352
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 2: We're what I tell you. I told you these MAVs.

353
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 2: These MAVs, man, they were they there, they got something

354
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 2: going on offense right now. Yeah, I was not confident

355
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 2: in Minnesota's offense coming in, and I think that was

356
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: the correct thing to be where about because they through

357
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,880
Speaker 2: four games. It's it's just you never really feel confident

358
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: like where their offense is gonna come from, Like right,

359
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: and has amazing moments, but it's not there yet where

360
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 2: he's just like unstoppable. Where's Luca even when his SHOT's

361
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: not going down, he's having twenty eight, fifteen and ten,

362
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 2: you know, right, it's in the loss. That's it. That's

363
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 2: the stat line in the one loss. But like Luca's

364
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 2: been incredible.

365
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: Damn that whole duo. I mean, like, what was it

366
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,719
Speaker 1: that stat there? Kyrie and Luke are the first starting

367
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: backcourt these have at least thirty points in the same

368
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: game three times in a postseason in the last fifty years. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

369
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: they're doing They're doing something. They're doing something. And man,

370
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: Gafford looks fantastic too. I've I I went going in

371
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: look because as a Laker fan. I was like, yes,

372
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: you beat the Nuggets, be my champion now and do damage.

373
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yeah, you can't handle them. You

374
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 1: can't handle them, like aunt really needs he needs he

375
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: needs help. He needs help beyond what is on that

376
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: that bench and on that court at present. But yeah,

377
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: it was interesting too because that game four like sort

378
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: of like everyone was like, well, you know, Kyrie was

379
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: what fourteen and oh at that point and close out

380
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: games and this was his first blemish. And then I

381
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: guess aunt was saying He's like, I did not want

382
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: to be swept. So I took that personally and was

383
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: an assist shy of a triple double.

384
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 4: So I liked what Minnesota did there.

385
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 3: I think, you know, Ant was talking, you know, being

386
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,439
Speaker 3: aunt ish as he does, you know before the series,

387
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 3: like I got Kai that wasn't that wasn't working up

388
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,719
Speaker 3: so right, and they put McDaniels on him, you know,

389
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 3: and Kay's he struggled, you know, in that game, and

390
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,919
Speaker 3: dal still had a chance to win, and.

391
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 4: Lucas struggled as well.

392
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 3: So I think if you're Minnesota, you feel like you

393
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 3: can at least push just the six, especially going back

394
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 3: in your home floor although they haven't been amazing on

395
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 3: their home floor, you know, especially from that against Ednver.

396
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 4: But ultimately this is this is a spot.

397
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 3: Where hey, you just got to, as an old cliches,

398
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 3: go one game at a time. But I think you're

399
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 3: a thousand percent correct and what you've alluded to, you know,

400
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: with Aunt doesn't have Cat being able to do you know,

401
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 3: a number two type of things.

402
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 4: That's a problem.

403
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 3: And I don't I feel like this was I don't

404
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 3: know if this is a real thing on on Twitter

405
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 3: or whatever the case to be, but I damn near

406
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 3: fell out of my chair when Shaq called Cat mister meow,

407
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 3: and I was like, is.

408
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 4: This a real thing?

409
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 3: And I was searching for it, but I was like, yo,

410
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 3: he's got he can't be mister meow.

411
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,360
Speaker 4: He's got to be out there, you know.

412
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 3: With a like a full like roar and and not

413
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,200
Speaker 3: me out and like you know, like like like Kitty

414
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 3: in the corner.

415
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 1: Man.

416
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 3: So that so they need from Carl Anthony Towns, for

417
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 3: Anthony Edwards to and and and company to push this series,

418
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 3: you know, to six or seven games.

419
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh do we think what do we what do

420
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: we think? Six? Ken?

421
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: I mean that sounds like wishful thinking from a Celtics

422
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 2: fan that they're gonna.

423
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 3: Face listen, hold on And going back to that from

424
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 3: the other side, have the Sics did you see Jason

425
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 3: Tatum or the ghost of Marcus mart Tanya Hardening, you know,

426
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 3: Donovan Mitchell's legs or Jimmy What.

427
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 1: Are we talking about here?

428
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 4: Nothing.

429
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that looks especially like a witch's curse

430
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 2: at the end of that game one man, so that

431
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 2: anybody cursed anybody.

432
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: But I'm not saying it wasn't Lee Harvey Oswald, but wow,

433
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: where was Jason? Was he in dey Plaza? Yeah? I man,

434
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:38,239
Speaker 1: six games? Maybe I don't know. I really don't know.

435
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: I mean, here's an interesting question because you got MAXI

436
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: Kleeber came back in for his first little bit uh

437
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: in that game five? Was there game four? You think,

438
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 1: what do you think his impact is going to be

439
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: as compared because I feel like, you know, prising is

440
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,679
Speaker 1: coming back is one thing, and Kleeber could be potentially that,

441
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: but he's been out since May third, so I'm not

442
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 1: sure if it's gonna be.

443
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: And I think that's why Dallscott has got to get

444
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 3: this series over with so he can continue to rest

445
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 3: and rehab whatever. Because he's got like a holster on

446
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 3: his shoulder right now. I know that's what he heard,

447
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,679
Speaker 3: but that thing looks crazy, yeah, So I can't imagine

448
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 3: that's comfortable to shoot with. And that's the biggest thing

449
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 3: that he's out there for right is able to space

450
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 3: the floor. So he looked hesitant, you know what we

451
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 3: saw in game four, and then when he did try

452
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 3: to hoist it up because like he just had no choice,

453
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 3: was obviously well short. So I applaud him for being

454
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 3: out there number one, but I think understanding that he's

455
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 3: going to struggle right now and he needs some more

456
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 3: rest in essence to be able to get back into

457
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 3: game shape and be effective in the NBA Finals if

458
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 3: Dolls were to make it there.

459
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dallas has thirty five allups in this playoff successful valubs.

460
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,959
Speaker 2: The remaining teams combined have twenty I guess not remaining

461
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 2: anymore because the Pacers are out. So the Wolves have six,

462
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 2: the Celtics have eight, the MAVs have thirty five.

463
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: There were some what video game esque like lobs and

464
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: like in that Series two, I was like, there can't

465
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: be somebody on the end of this one, you're like, oh,

466
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 1: and just that one last night with Derek Jones, Yeah, yeah,

467
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: I couldn't. I was like where did he come?

468
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 2: Wow?

469
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 3: Yeah?

470
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 4: And Linz Yeah, eyeing.

471
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: Through the air and like seriously it was it was crazy.

472
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: How many so with the Celtics wrapping up their series

473
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: Dallas still being in there is how many days of

474
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 1: rest potentially the Celtics going to have by the time game.

475
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 4: One again to being ten nine or ten days?

476
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: Nine or ten days.

477
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a lot of rest. That's basically like next season.

478
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,639
Speaker 2: So who knows what's going to happen.

479
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, what the haters? You can call it rust Maybe

480
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 3: they get rusty in that time as well too, right.

481
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, where are you in this rest or? Rust? Jack?

482
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: Are you on rust?

483
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 2: Oh No, I think it's Yeah, I think they're gonna

484
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: be rusty. I think it's I think it's gonna be

485
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 2: a mess out there. They're going to be They're going

486
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 2: to look like they're playing.

487
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: With the Celtics. If the Celtics don't win an eighteenth championship,

488
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: everything's a failure.

489
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 2: That's all I know.

490
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: That's all I know. You know at this point, that's

491
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: what that's what has to be Like, that's I'm going

492
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 1: to lean into it that hard now. But yeah, I

493
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: mean I have a feeling the rest will only benefit

494
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 1: the Celtics at this point.

495
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 3: Just can I can I ask a real question like

496
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 3: in this regard so no, is it really just it's

497
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 3: Celtics lore that that everybody is because when I I'd

498
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 3: have to think about this a lot, obviously in the

499
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 3: last few days, and there's not any really bad personalities

500
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 3: or bad people, like do you do you like? Most

501
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 3: people love Drew Holliday, Most people love Derek White Tatum

502
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 3: think maybe but maybe you think they were anointed before

503
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 3: they should have been, or one of the cases.

504
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: Being no, not even that. Like I actually I like

505
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 1: I like them, you know what I mean? I like

506
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: Jalen Brown like me, has no left I like that,

507
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: like me, Derek White is losing his hair, embrace the

508
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: bald and now has found superpowers. I like Jason he

509
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: looks like Jason Tatum looks exactly like my cousin I have.

510
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: It's for me personally, it's that I'm in the rat

511
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: race of counting rings as a Laker fan, like a

512
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: lifelong Laker fan. So for me, I'm just fully invested

513
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 1: in not seeing a number eighteen patch on the back

514
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: of that jersey. That's it's pretty superficial like that, because

515
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, like I really like

516
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: I kind of you know, there's nothing against them personally,

517
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: because I actually do like the players and I can

518
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 1: respect the fact that they're good. But then I have

519
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,479
Speaker 1: to process that through my toxic Laker brain and go,

520
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 1: that is bad that the men in green are this good.

521
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: We don't like that. That is an existential threat to

522
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 1: our ego. And that's for me just putting it very

523
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,719
Speaker 1: you know, bluntly. That's that's that's what it For me.

524
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: It all stems from my Laker fandom has really nothing

525
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: to do with the players at all.

526
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, for me, it's personal. It's I didn't like Danny Ainge,

527
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 2: and then I was like, oh, man, like, maybe maybe

528
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 2: I'll be okay with the Celtics once Danny Ainge leaves,

529
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 2: and then I didn't happened. I still really don't like.

530
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 2: It's also like sick, uh, you know, like with the fact,

531
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: you know, I'm a Sixers fan, and like the the

532
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 2: fact that they could have had Tatum and like traded

533
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 2: out of the position to have Tatum is just like

534
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 2: too much for my diseased heart to taste. I just can't.

535
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 2: It's it's pure vitriol. Like I'm a small, small man

536
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: on this subject. I am a person. How I feel

537
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 2: about this?

538
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 4: Was that Colangelo? Who is who? Who did that?

539
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? That was Colangelo? And I don't see what everyone thinks.

540
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 2: The big deal is find a new angle. That was

541
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 2: a good trade. Normal, It was a normal trade.

542
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: I mean, like, what are the what are the reasons? Why?

543
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 1: Like I because for me, I get just very narrowly

544
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: through my prism of Laker fandom being in LA like

545
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: why we don't like this Soltics? But I'm curious, like

546
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: I guess for the others, it's just I think for

547
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: fans of other teams, they're sort of like why why

548
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: do they get the like why are they exalted so quickly?

549
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,439
Speaker 1: I'm still trying to understand. I'm like, oh, y'all are

550
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: on my team, Like what is it? Because I know

551
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: y'all don't like the Lakers either, So where are you

552
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: coming from exactly here?

553
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: Does America like the Lakers more than the Celtics? Probably right?

554
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 4: Yeah?

555
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they like but they also have a

556
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: but also have a ton of haters. I mean, I

557
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: don't know if it's as because I mean, look at

558
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: how much they people were the people were sea walking

559
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: on our grave, you know what I mean, when when

560
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: the Nuggets just clapped us. So I know that that

561
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,479
Speaker 1: that energy is definitely out there for the Lakers. And

562
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: then yeah, and the Celtics probably like an equal measure.

563
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: But I'm I'm curious what everyone, Like, I get why

564
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: people don't like the Lakers. They obviously our fans are arrogant,

565
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: We are not rooted to reality in any kind of way.

566
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: I'm just demanding players who technically cannot be signed to

567
00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: the Lakers be signed to the Lakers. So I exist

568
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 1: in a different world, and I get that that is

569
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: annoying to many other people. But then when I'm like

570
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: with the Celtics, I'm like, I don't know, man, like

571
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 1: they they weren't really you know, it's been a while

572
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: since they were really really like that team.

573
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 3: So yeah, I would imagine, like like a lot of teams,

574
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 3: it's the it's the overall fan base that can be

575
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 3: off putting. And so you know I have that and

576
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 3: I said, I Celtic cover if you will. But I

577
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 3: live in South Florida, so me with heat heat fans

578
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 3: like it's I'm sufferable.

579
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 4: I just I'm like, I just I'm suffocated, and so

580
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 4: I can't. I just can't. So and when I watch

581
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 4: outlets and.

582
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 3: Things like that too, like no, you're just you're you're

583
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 3: trying to create a narrative that, oh, nobody cares about Miami,

584
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 3: and it's just stop it, stop it.

585
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 4: Like culture gets shoved down my throat every every other day.

586
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 3: So honestly, it's the fans and some and and for

587
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 3: some folks it's media. Why there's such these polarizing things

588
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 3: about the Celtics. But I think, as you alluded to,

589
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 3: you know with Boston, this iteration of the Celtics, if

590
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 3: you will, you know, they're mostly decent guys. I mean

591
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: even b Brad Stevens in the front office like he's

592
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 3: a mom dude, like he.

593
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 2: Is like a good guy, good smart guy. Question, Warren,

594
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 2: I don't understand. I don't understand it, Like you know what, personally,

595
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 2: I don't understand. It doesn't make any sense.

596
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: I think it's because some our houses are so chaotic.

597
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: You look at the person who's like parents are together

598
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: and they're doing like, oh, yeah, I gotta figure out.

599
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 2: For you.

600
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: But your mom took you in at night, huh.

601
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 2: While you're under their car cutting their brakes. Yeah, we're

602
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 2: so happy for you.

603
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, outside looking at you, outside looking in Brad Stevens

604
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 3: the GM, or Brad Stevens a coach. No, they haven't

605
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 3: obviously won anything yet, but you know, he's better that

606
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 3: you're as Stevens as a GM or Brad Stevens as

607
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 3: a coach from what you can remember.

608
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 2: I mean, this isn't a fun conversation for me. Better

609
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 2: when he's like a great coach or like an even

610
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 2: better Yeah's like wow, amazing. I mean until this season,

611
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 2: I would have probably said coach. But this, like this

612
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: is truly like this is like a dream team level,

613
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 2: like just at the strength of the team across the

614
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 2: board is incredible, Like it's really I'm viewing this as

615
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 2: the Olympic Finals when the Dream Team went to the finals.

616
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 2: And if there's a loss there, I mean I can't

617
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 2: even imagine. And like the level of embarrassment.

618
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: Don't you guys still have like first round picks still

619
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: he's been punting those picks he punted I think two

620
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: picks to.

621
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 3: Get Derek White, so you might have I think we

622
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,719
Speaker 3: have a first round pick this year that is our

623
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 3: own whatever, but anyway, it's going to be late and so.

624
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but either way. But yeah, I mean

625
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: because then like like at the you know, like moving

626
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: Kemba and getting Al Horford and.

627
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 2: Just how Yeah, that's what's frustrating. There are times when

628
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 2: like things don't work out. You're like maybe this is

629
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: the fall and yeah, and you're like no, what. Al

630
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 2: Horford's going out of his mind. He's like Drew Holiday,

631
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 2: the one Holiday is the one that like I just

632
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 2: can't because I loved him. I loved like what he

633
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 2: did in the finals for the Bucks, and you know

634
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:23,640
Speaker 2: as a Celtics antagonist, I was like, like anyone else,

635
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 2: like anyone else please? Yeah, he's so perfect for them.

636
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: He's so perfect for basically anyway. I mean, if you'd

637
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 2: been on the six Ers, I feel like they would

638
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 2: have been pretty good this year.

639
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: And also like I know that there's stuff behind the scenes.

640
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 1: There's a like doctor Lori Santos who's like this like

641
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: happiness psychologist person, like she was working like with Brad Stevens,

642
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: Like he's like can you come talk to us? Like

643
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: the layers of thought that go into this is also

644
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: like pretty impressive, like having intellectuals. I know, Jack, Look,

645
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what am I going to do? Man? I

646
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: still guys, I still have to call it as I

647
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 1: see it. This is better.

648
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 4: And I.

649
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: Hate it. So Yeah, I hope this energizes Warren. I

650
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: hope you're able to live for like sixty more years

651
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 1: off the strength of our pain.

652
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 3: Can it's I am. I am on cloud nine right now.

653
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 3: I know they can't see me, but I am floating.

654
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 3: I appreciate you so much.

655
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 2: The machines are gonna love you guys. You guys are

656
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 2: gonna make such good batteries once the machines take over,

657
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 2: because you're just so so blowing positive energy.

658
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: I like that in your world. Jack. The happy ending

659
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: to this is that we fall to a matrix style

660
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: of dystopia and yeah, yeah, it's like, well, the Celtic

661
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: Expands will probably be the best batteries and then.

662
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: Get this thing out of here. Yeah, I'm all right. Anyway,

663
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 2: should we take a break and come back and do

664
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: the fastest segment of podcasting? Yeah, it's true. Here we go.

665
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: And we're back Warren shot, so, well, well, I think

666
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: you're maybe you're you're you're my favorite Celtics fan. I

667
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: gotta say, you know, because because.

668
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 2: Not tough competition. Man. Love.

669
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I think you're my favorite child and my

670
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 3: only child.

671
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 2: You or Donnie Wahlberg.

672
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: Wasn't Donnie at the game the other night?

673
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 4: Yeah?

674
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. But anyway, it is time for

675
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter rapid fire round of questioning. This is

676
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: the fastest question answer segment in all sports podcasting history. Warren,

677
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: you've done this before. We're going to ask you a question.

678
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: Just reply quickly, give us a sinct answer. Don't nothing

679
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: too long because we're trying to maintain our titles the

680
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 1: fastest question answer segment and populastnstry And if you take

681
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: too long, we will be rude to you and we

682
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: will take our anger out as Sixers and Lakers fans

683
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: on you in a way that is disproportionate and maybe inappropriate.

684
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: But you're a brave person. You're stand up man, so

685
00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 1: we expect nothing less from you. Are you ready?

686
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 4: Lets it get it popping right, start the clock.

687
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: Don't do any easy ones, Jack, but we gotta we

688
00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: gotta make Warren look, I'm.

689
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: Crossing the ones out right now.

690
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, good ones. Pull up, pull up his phone records,

691
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: pull up his phone records to that one. Yeah, the

692
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: ones from June twenty thirteen.

693
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, old Warren.

694
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,439
Speaker 1: Oh you made a lot of calls to this number.

695
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go.

696
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: Uh. First question, this is from the Discord and shout

697
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 1: out to everybody that goes on the discord. What what

698
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: What will the crowd reaction be like in Boston if

699
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,799
Speaker 1: it's Kyrie and the MAVs rolling into town. Will the

700
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,959
Speaker 1: turned up crowd get guys like Luca and Kyrie going,

701
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: Will it be an atmosphere that will just be terrible

702
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 1: for everyone? What are your what's your thoughts on the

703
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: atmosphere when they come to town?

704
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 4: Crash negative? So I think no chill, no chill.

705
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 3: So it's gonna be awful. And that's the one part

706
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 3: I don't want. Any part of Kyrie is gonna rains

707
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 3: of booze. And I just they don't throw stuff at him,

708
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 3: That's all I can say. Just it's not a great

709
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 3: fan base when it comes to Kyrie.

710
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: Sure, sure, sure, And like much of the way that

711
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: you're powered by the tiers of Laker fans. Kyrie is

712
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: powered by the booze of Boston fans, So yeah, that could,

713
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: that could. Yeah, that's a battery for him for sure.

714
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,839
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of talk about how the home

715
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 2: court advantage has gone away. People aren't like doing that

716
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 2: much better at home, if better at all at home.

717
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 2: What do you think? What's your theory on that?

718
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 3: Funny I listening to a show talking about that earlier today,

719
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 3: and rest has a lot to do with it, you know.

720
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 3: I think so the visiting team can kind of come

721
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,879
Speaker 3: in and you know, the travel is better, et cetera,

722
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 3: et cetera. But I just think teams are better proportionately

723
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 3: matched in general from what we've seen more recently in

724
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 3: recent years. So I don't think home court avenge is

725
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 3: what it once was, but you know, I'd still rather

726
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 3: have it than not, but it doesn't hold the same

727
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 3: weight that I think it did fifteen ten years ago.

728
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,040
Speaker 2: Also, there's something we've talked about in the past about

729
00:35:55,360 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 2: NBA players being sort of SPIKEE fueled and like feeling

730
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 2: like everybody it's them against the world. I wonder if

731
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 2: like there's a part of it where like they react

732
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 2: better to people like hating on them, like, yeah, right, exactly,

733
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 2: Like a lot of it is like, you know, just

734
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 2: made up hate, but like you know, you have to

735
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 2: motivate yourself somehow. But like it when you're on the road,

736
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: you actually get to like hear it and feel it.

737
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 2: And it's like the type of person who becomes a

738
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 2: great player these days has to do it in the

739
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 2: face of just torrents of you know, hate on social media.

740
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,480
Speaker 2: I just wonder if, like, for a modern player, that

741
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 2: is a more effective way to get going than like

742
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 2: the adulation of the home crowd is like curing booze

743
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 2: and anger. Right, that's my that's my loose, uh, soft brained.

744
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: You're like yeah, And then like people like MJ and

745
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: then Kobe kind of really made it that thing where

746
00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, go ahead, I want it and then

747
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: you stick that jaw out and you're like you're in trouble.

748
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 1: But that was a long time ago.

749
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, But like, I feel like the feeling of quieting

750
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: a crowd something that I have a lot of experience

751
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 2: with in our live shows. I feel like that's got

752
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,840
Speaker 2: to be one of the more powerful feelings that you

753
00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: can get.

754
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,160
Speaker 4: I can give you a terrible example, I played intramural.

755
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 3: Yeah basketball when I did, and we played against those

756
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 3: frats and yeah, you know, they brought their sorority girls

757
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 3: out and they and my little pickup team you beat them.

758
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 4: I felt some type of way.

759
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: That's true motivation.

760
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 4: So yeah, translates all levels.

761
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,720
Speaker 2: That is the experience of playing against the Boston Celtics,

762
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 2: by the way, is playing against a fraternity with a

763
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 2: bunch of thro.

764
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 1: We're playing siapp baby mine was Pike, so okay, yeah,

765
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 1: oh and gammified Beta coming. Don't worry, don't worry, I

766
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: will I'd hit airball or two in that game. All right?

767
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: Was that a question? Or are you getting sure?

768
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:06,800
Speaker 2: Let's school say that was a question.

769
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 1: Okay, that was a question. All right. Ward, you can

770
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,320
Speaker 1: go back in time to personally witness any finals matchup

771
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: from history. However, many games the series went, you get

772
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: courtside tickets to each game. What series are you sitting

773
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: court with?

774
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 2: Heat series are you choosing?

775
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 4: God, I'd go back into I can't remember what year.

776
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 3: I'm going to get it wrong, but obviously one of

777
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 3: the ones Bird beat Magic, so you know, I don't.

778
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 4: Know if that's four fives. One of those one of

779
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 4: those years.

780
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: So I was, you know, a fledgling individual at that

781
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 3: at that time of my life and wasn't really following

782
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 3: basketball in that but I think just understanding what that

783
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 3: rivalry was like, not the first, but the most.

784
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:51,879
Speaker 4: I don't only say how, I want to say this, right.

785
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 3: One of the more iconic rivalries in NBA history, you know,

786
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 3: Bird versus Magic and Yeah, for something that I can definitely.

787
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:00,040
Speaker 1: Relate to, it's the year of my birth nineteen eighty.

788

Speaker 1: eye like all seeing eye kind of thing, And I

806
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 1: think like a hawk flying into the moon.

00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 2: Hey, I can't hate, all right, I can't hate. You've

808

00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 2: of my back, so yeah, exactly, I can't. I can't complain.

Speaker 1: so warrant.

812
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 2: We've seen teams around my belly button.

813
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, rod in the style you got away?

814
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 4: Is it?

815
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 1: Reggie? Who is it?

816
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 3: So?

817
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 1: We got teams like the Grizzlies, thunder Magic taking steps

818
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, to the next level over the last few years.

819
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: Who are Can you give us two teams you think

820
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 1: we can also expect something similar from that are going

821
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: to be in the conversation that previously wasn't because we're.

822
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 4: Seeing that is not those teams you just mentioned.

823
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the ones that fully encapsulate what I've just said,

824
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: go outside the bounds and give us a prediction.

825
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 3: So listen, I think Houston's closer than people want to admit. Yeah,

826
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 3: coaching is a real situation there, and I love Shanghu,

827
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 3: and I think jelling green is is going to be

828
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 3: a dude, So I I'd pick Houston there, you know,

829
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 3: try and think from an Eastern conference standpoint.

830
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,479
Speaker 4: There's not a lot like.

831
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 3: Right now you have mentioned, right, so yeah, you know,

832
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 3: I would hope Detroit gets rocked together, but they're nowhere

833
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 3: near where they be. So I guess I'll go with

834
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 3: the safe pick care and then in your conference finals

835
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 3: and I.

836
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 4: Guess the Pacers we'll see them again.

837
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: They should be so good, So I mean, man like

838
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:32,359
Speaker 1: them hard.

839
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, you talked about like you thought he would be

840
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:36,680
Speaker 4: the last time, me too.

841
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 3: You know, yeah, he's not particularly quick, but he's crafty

842
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 3: and you know a little half turns doing the smitty

843
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,239
Speaker 3: and you know leanings and decent shot.

844
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 4: You know, the little goosenack on his threes. Hey, I

845
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 4: could rock with that. I could rock. I think you're

846
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 4: a super producers saying the spurs.

847
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 3: But until they can get some help someone, right, it's

848
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 3: basically us three run around whether right now, and that's

849
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 3: that's not going to cut.

850
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 2: It right over under number of seasons until Wemby is

851
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 2: top three MVP voter.

852
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 3: Uh So over under I'm going to say over one,

853
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 3: but I'd say literally in the year three.

854
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 2: So wow, that's crazy.

855
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean and and I mean, that's that's contradicting

856
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,439
Speaker 3: what I just said though in terms of Spurs won't

857
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 3: be a good basketball team, you know, record wise, but

858
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 3: I don't know that we'll be able to deny his

859
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 3: his statistical impact. And if you know, people do say,

860
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 3: you know what, I want to go play with that guy,

861
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 3: you know, the Alien or whatever his logo is.

862
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, maybe they will be able to rebuild

863
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 4: a lot faster, but he's ridiculous.

864
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 1: Yeah.

865
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard to for somebody to live up to

866
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 3: the expectations in that first year that that was put

867
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 3: on him too. And I know, you guys rough a

868
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:50,479
Speaker 3: summer league and.

869
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 4: I don't, I don't.

870
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 3: I don't you remember the spectacle that it was, you know,

871
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 3: trying to watch him out there?

872
00:42:55,920 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: It was actually was he there? I didn't do you

873
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 1: remember the how quiet it got in Thomason Max Center.

874
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 2: This sec he will touch the ball even everyone's like, yo,

875
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 2: watch yeah.

876
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: And they're like, oh my god, he missed that dunk.

877
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 1: And I was like, this guy is a way strolls.

878
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 1: I'm calling it. I'm out on this webby guy.

879
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 2: And then he almost hit his head on the rim,

880
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: just like walking by, and I was like, oh, oh,

881
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:21,760
Speaker 2: this is gonna be weird.

882
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 1: He needs special awareness, uh A Warren. Finally, this summer,

883
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: you know, we're planning on doing a dive into some

884
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: nineties players, some of our favorites of the era. During

885
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: the offseason. We're gonna highlight different players, give us a

886
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: few recommendations of people that you think, you know, especially

887
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,839
Speaker 1: for newer fans, nineties era players that we absolutely they

888
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 1: need to be familiar with.

889
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 3: Well, I think I spoke about this maybe the last

890
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 3: time I was on, but I'm definitely it's an only

891
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 3: good a bit of goodie for me, the draws and

892
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 3: Petrovitch nets. So what Derek Holeman as well to d

893
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 3: C was a problem. He wasn't always motivated, but yeah,

894
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 3: he was a problem back.

895
00:43:56,239 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 4: In the nineties. And then to keep it Boston centric.

896
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 3: Reggie Lewis, you know, and not to make you know,

897
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 3: not to be morbid about it in any capacity. Obviously

898
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 3: he passed on. Uh, but he was a bucket, you know,

899
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,240
Speaker 3: he could he could really hoop. So those are guys

900
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,800
Speaker 3: I think, you know, people would love it should should

901
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,919
