Speaker 3: Yeah? There you go. All right, we got a fun

23
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: one here. We're gonna be drafting last night's best games

24
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 3: because we had a very busy slate in the NBA,

25
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: and a little bit later on we're going to share

26
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 3: some stats you need to know after two weeks in

27
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: this season. But my, oh my, we missed some weggies.

28
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 3: I can't believe this, but we uncovered two edgies last

29
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: night from November first. That's right, five or six nights ago.

30
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 3: First one was Memphis, Utah and is John Collins, our guy,

31
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 3: John Collins sticking one early in that game, so that

32
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 3: was officially wedgy number one. Guys. Again, this is from

33
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 3: November first. That was a quickie. Same night we had

34
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 3: Brandon Miller, the rook for the Hornets in Houston, drew

35
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 3: the foul, but he stuck the weggie on the shot

36
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 3: went to the line, so it counts. So just like that,

37
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: we actually have two edgies. But I didn't sleep at

38
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 3: all last night. What the hell happened? How did we

39
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: miss these? How did the people miss these? What? What's

40
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 3: going on?

41
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: Wednesdays are a big night? This is a Wednesday night skeets. Uh.

42
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 4: Perhaps there was a Halloween hangover you know where, just

43
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 4: out of it without the sugar coursing through our cysts.

44
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 4: We missed these ones. You slept poorly, you said, knowing

45
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 4: we missed them. I slept great since we found this

46
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: because it was a disappointing start to the season. Did

47
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 4: not have any wedgies through almost two weeks of the season.

48
00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 4: Little did we know they were just hiding in plain sight.

49
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 3: I know, it's incredible. Thank you to everybody that helped

50
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 3: us find these. We learned about the one that first

51
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 3: one John Collins at some point there last night, and

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 3: then on playback last night, Thanks everybody that joined us

53
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 3: live on that. Somebody brought up the idea like, oh

54
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 3: there was another one, and you were like doing a

55
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 3: deep dive while we were live on playback and we

56
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: got it. I mean again, I didn't sleep. I watched

57
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 3: all of the games that we've had this season. I've

58
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 3: watched over one hundred games. Last night and went.

59
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 4: Through the locks grinding tape exactly.

60
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: I mean, it's I don't know, everything is a lie.

61
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 3: Now there might be one hundred weggies this year for

62
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 3: all we know.

63
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 4: Please let us know. You see something, say something that's right,

64
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 4: that's right.

65
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe that'll get us going, like it's a nice

66
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: reminder that if you do see a wedgie, even one,

67
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: if you think it's a little controversial, like does it count,

68
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 3: tweet at us at Jay Skeets, at Trey Kirby at

69
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 3: no dunk sink and let us know we could also

70
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 3: blame x slash Twitter.

71
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 4: I think it was partly then.

72
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: I don't think the tweets were getting through. I wasn't

73
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 3: say it could be what's going on? Yeah? Anyway, we

74
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 3: got two weggies, so that is great. Happy birthdaated you

75
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 3: JD two wggies. All right, let's get too drafting last

76
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 3: night's best games or whatever games you actually want to

77
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 3: talk about. Trey, you get the number one pick once again,

78
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 3: where do you want to start?

79
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 4: Coming up?

80
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: Curvy does love this. I like you getting us started.

81
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 3: So what's your number one pick from the twelve games

82
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: last night?

83
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 4: You know, number one on the draft board heading into

84
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,239
Speaker 4: the draft process. Skeets the number one offense Boston Celtics

85
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 4: versus the number one defense Minnesota Timberwolves.

86
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 3: After all of.

87
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 4: The pre prep for the draft, still the game of

88
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 4: the night at the end of the night. Oh, couple

89
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 4: of takeaways from a huge Minnesota win. First one to

90
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 4: me this Timberwolves defense is legit skeets. They held the

91
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 4: Celtics to one hundred and one points in regulation, that's

92
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 4: their fewest this season. They went on to get one

93
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 4: oh nine and o t but who cares. They held

94
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 4: the Celtics under forty from the field for the first

95
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 4: time this season, forced eight turnovers, a season high for Boston,

96
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,799
Speaker 4: and the Celtics only hit eleven threes. That's their fewest

97
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 4: this season. Yeah, waking up this morning, now Boston sucks.

98
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 4: They're all the way down in third for offensive grading,

99
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: just based on last night. Because the Timberwolves are a

100
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,479
Speaker 4: big team. Mark Conley's kind of the only guy who's

101
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,599
Speaker 4: normal size for his position, but everything else sizeable guys

102
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 4: two seven footers in cat and Gobert Gobart has been

103
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 4: incredible to start the season. And then they have athleticism

104
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 4: and playmaking on the defensive side of the ball. Anthony

105
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 4: Edwards we saw getting steals. Jaden McDaniels is one of

106
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 4: the best defenders in the league and he's really been

107
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 4: weaponized early in the season. I mean we're two weeks in,

108
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 4: they're the best defense in the league. Who knows if

109
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 4: they finished the season like that. But the fundamentals are there,

110
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 4: and they definitely are tied in together and given quite

111
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 4: the effort on that end of the ball. The other

112
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 4: takeaway ant man was giant Man in ot. He was

113
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 4: pretty good in regulation. Anthony Edwards had thirty points, some

114
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 4: questionable shots, I would say down the stretch in the

115
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 4: fourth quarter, just wanted to take step back jumpers. They

116
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 4: did not go in, but the Celtics kind of let

117
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 4: him off the hook doing the exact same thing. But

118
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 4: then he hit the pim particles for the extra period,

119
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 4: scored eight points in OT to the Celtics eight points,

120
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 4: and it was takeover. Mody assisted Mike Conley on a

121
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,119
Speaker 4: three to put Minnesota up by one, then three straight

122
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 4: jumpers by Anthony Edwards after missing all those at the

123
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,799
Speaker 4: end of regulation. This was awesome to see. The building

124
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 4: was completely hyped. It was like a play in game there.

125
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 4: They were going so crazy.

126
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 3: It was a loud crowd. I mean, I was like,

127
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: what is this the nd season tournament? This is amazing.

128
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 3: It was awesome. You're right. He took over there in overtime.

129
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 3: He even had a heat check air ball three. Yeah,

130
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: after he was feeling it, but fifteen for twenty five

131
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 3: for aunt thirty eight points, nine boards, seven assists, had

132
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 3: this steal there. And then McDaniels, who obviously, you know

133
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 3: or I forgot, you know, missed a couple games to

134
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 3: start this season. You know, he's obviously back and you

135
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: know you're gonna get elite defense, which he gave them.

136
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: But then he's knocking down four threes eight of eighteen

137
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,679
Speaker 3: overall for twenty points. And this was a game in which,

138
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 3: you know, Karl Anthony Towns fouls out, yes, trull in overtime,

139
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: and maybe it was a blessing in disguise for the Wolves.

140
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,679
Speaker 3: I mean, we got to get that guy a Mister

141
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 3: Temper Boys shirt. Yeah, Carl Anthony town throws a lot

142
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 3: of little mini temper tantrents, you know, either a bad

143
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: call or a mist like or somebody misses inside. He

144
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: did it even when the Wolves, you know, botched the play.

145
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: I guess it was a rebound that they probably should

146
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 3: have had and they gave up. But yeah, what a

147
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: what a win here now taking down the Nuggets and

148
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 3: the Celtics for the Wolves.

149
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're the only team to have beaten the Nuggets,

150
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 4: the only team to have beaten the Celtics, and yeah,

151
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 4: Karl Anthony Towns definitely had a weird one. He just

152
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 4: plays like even Jim Peterson says it on that broadcast.

153
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 4: He just plays out of control offensively, the way he

154
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 4: drives in. He got that offensive file for like a

155
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 4: massive push off and then filed out just a couple

156
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 4: of plays later. And then obviously the Timberwolves took over

157
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 4: base as soon as talents went out, which was interesting

158
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 4: to see. You know, there's a lot of talk about it.

159
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 4: Will he be a trade target later on this season?

160
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 4: Understandable considering the draft assets that Minnesota gave away to

161
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 4: get Rudy Gobert. But the team is good right now.

162
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: I would not personally trade Towns. He's still seven feet tall,

163
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 4: he still rebounds. He has had some shortcomings in the playoffs,

164
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 4: no doubt about it, and maybe that's something in the

165
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 4: future that they do. But the team is rolling and

166
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 4: it helps having two seven footers out there. Even though

167
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 4: Towns is not a great defensive player, the size that

168
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 4: he brings alongside nas Reed coming off the bench, like,

169
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: it's great to have a guy like nas Reed when

170
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,199
Speaker 4: you have file trouble for Karl Anthony Towns.

171
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 3: It's sort of insane. The Wolves won this game despite

172
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 3: their two seven footers shooting a combined two for eleven

173
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 3: at the free throw line. Yeah, Towns didn't shoot one. Nah,

174
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 3: he was an over zero for zero zero percent or

175
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: one hundred percent, depends on how you look at it.

176
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 3: Go bet shot two for eleven at the line. I

177
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 3: don't want to bury the guy here because he's been really,

178
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 3: really good. Was really good in this game. You know,

179
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 3: fourteen points, twelve boards, that's what he's out there to do. Obviously,

180
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 3: defense didn't miss a shot, but two for eleven, what

181
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 3: are you, Chris Dudley, that's some crazy numbers.

182
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 4: He's not that.

183
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 3: Bad usually at the line, but wild. They pulled it

184
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 3: out and took over and was it was just special

185
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 3: when the place was going insane. That was an awesome crowd.

186
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 4: Man.

187
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 3: They're like they are just ready for any any small

188
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 3: taste of success there, even a big win over you know,

189
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 3: a previously unbeaten team there in Boston feels like you said,

190
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 3: like like a playing game or a playoff moment.

191
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 4: They've had slow starts the past couple of seasons, even

192
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 4: before Gobert got there, just kind of getting derailed at

193
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 4: the start of the season, have to put it all

194
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: together heading into the play in tournament or into the playoffs.

195
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 4: If they were able to actually play good basketball for

196
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 4: the entirety of the season, there's a chance they host

197
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 4: the playoff series.

198
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 3: I think for sure. All Right, my number one pick

199
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 3: from last night's games, I'm gonna go with Julius Randall

200
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 3: and RJ. Barrett leading the Knicks to the one eleven

201
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 3: ninety seven victory over Harden's Clippers debut. We're really picking

202
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 3: this one because we can talk about James Harden how

203
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 3: we looked with his new team there in LA. But first,

204
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 3: some love to the Knicks. Julius Randall best game of

205
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 3: the season for him, twenty seven points on nine to

206
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 3: twenty one shooting. I know you're gonna see nine to

207
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,559
Speaker 3: twenty one and go that was his best game.

208
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was hooping, Yes, significantly.

209
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 3: You could do without the six turnovers, but he was

210
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 3: obviously scoring, which was great to see for Knicks fans. RJ. Barrett,

211
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 3: he returned from a sore left knee. He had twenty

212
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 3: six also had too many turnovers, but he chipped in

213
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 3: six boards and four assists. This was a tie game.

214
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,839
Speaker 3: Heading into the fourth quarter seventy six all in a

215
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: Madison Square Garden low scoring game at seventy six there,

216
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 3: And I thought Dante di Vincenzo was awesome throughout the game,

217
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,559
Speaker 3: but specifically in that final frame. You know, we had

218
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 3: this one on playback down the stretch there because it

219
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 3: was close. He was making play after play, you know,

220
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 3: just playing harder than most everyone else out there. He

221
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 3: had twelve points, six boards on the night, and the

222
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 3: Clippers were out rebound at forty eight to thirty one.

223
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 3: Mitchell Robinson played a part in that as well, outscoring

224
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 3: the Knicks did the Clippers fifty six to thirty eight

225
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 3: in the paint. So good stuff from the Knicks there,

226
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 3: especially from Julius Randall and Barrett these guys that are

227
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 3: up and down and Randall's been just down, down, down

228
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 3: to start the season but had a little breakout there.

229
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: But let's talk about James Harden. Yeah, let's get your

230
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 3: take right away. He played thirty one minutes, seventeen points,

231
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 3: six assists in his first game since being traded from

232
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: the Sixers, first game since May. Yeah, that was Ashley

233
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 3: shocking to me.

234
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, it's his debut cool, he's finally

235
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 4: starting for a new team here. But yeah, he hadn't

236
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 4: played in literally six months, and it looked like he

237
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 4: didn't do anything. The first quarter just passed it.

238
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was feeling out the game, feeling out his

239
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 3: I guess his veteran teammates there looking for zubats nice dimes.

240
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 3: But you're right, did didn't even attempt to shot down

241
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 3: I don't think so. Yeah, finished six for nine from

242
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 3: the field, though he did say, quote felt kind of

243
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 3: weird out there, not really having a preseason game or

244
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: an opportunity to participate in a full training camp, none

245
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 3: of that. Out there, just basically winging it.

246
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,439
Speaker 4: He also was like, I was tired. They were moving fast.

247
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 3: You think he did say he was tired and fast.

248
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: I think Tyler even commented on, Yeah, the conditioning was

249
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 3: a factor, But yeah, how do you do? How did

250
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 3: you think he you know, gelled with Russ and Kawhi

251
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 3: and Paul George in the limited run he got here

252
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 3: in one game.

253
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 4: Not great. I didn't. I was not impressed at all. Really,

254
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 4: it was too much your turn, my turn. You could

255
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 4: tell that. A It was Harden's first game in six

256
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 4: months and his first game with three other players who

257
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 4: are ball dominant players. You know, Paul George was kind

258
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 4: of chilling in this one. He took eleven shots, finished

259
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 4: two for eleven. He probably shouldn't be the guy that

260
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 4: fades into the background on this. We've talked so many

261
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 4: times over the years, how it's tough to be the

262
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 4: third guy coming into a super team and how are

263
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 4: you going to get your shots? James Harden is coming

264
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 4: in as a third option here, who wants to be

265
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 4: a first option when in reality, Kawhi Leonard should be

266
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 4: the guy. He took six shots in the first half.

267
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 4: At halftime, Tyler said, you're a best player, man, you

268
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 4: need to take more shots. So it's gonna be kind

269
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 4: of on Kawhi to maybe go against his nature here

270
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 4: and be outspoken and say, hey, we start and end

271
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 4: with me, because that's the reality of the Clippers if

272
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 4: they're ever gonna do anything in the playoffs, if they're

273
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 4: ever going to be a competitive team here, it's gonna

274
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 4: be Kwhi Leonard going terminator mode and looking like a

275
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 4: top five guy in the league. How do they get

276
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 4: the best out of Leonard with Harden, with Westbrook taking turns,

277
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 4: Like you said, Basically the only thing they had figured

278
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 4: out last night was we can run a pick and

279
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 4: roll with Zubots at any time because there's three Hall

280
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 4: of Famers just spacing the court on the outside. But

281
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 4: you also don't want to be running your offense pick

282
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 4: and roll with Zubots every single time on the court,

283
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 4: I don't think.

284
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 3: So there's a.

285
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 4: Lot for the Clippers to figure out. This is probably

286
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 4: why they are happy to get the trade done so

287
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 4: early end of the season, so they have a lot

288
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 4: of games to iron things out. But minus thirteen with

289
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 4: the starters on the floor last night for La.

290
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good point about maybe you're better off

291
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 3: having done this deal. Now there's gonna be some growing

292
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 3: pains you you are waiting to get Terrence Man back

293
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: to the lineup. You know, this dolt of energy. There

294
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 3: a guy that you didn't want to trade for James Harden.

295
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 3: So they've got time. But yeah, after one game, it

296
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 3: wasn't all that inspiring.

297
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 4: This game was pretty cheeks skiz.

298
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah it was, And that's the only reason I took

299
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 3: this one earliest for the Harden Clippers debut. But let's

300
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 3: keep it going. What's your number two?

301
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 4: Pick? My number two pick. Maybe this one's a reach,

302
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 4: but I'm taking the Philadelphia seventy six ers beating the

303
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 4: Washington Wizards one forty six to one twenty eight and

304
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 4: instant classic skis. Yes, this is an Embiid pick right here.

305
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 4: Forty eight points, eleven rebounds, six assists in thirty one minutes.

306
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 4: The guy played thirty one minutes, had an entire game.

307
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 4: In the third quarter, he scored twenty nine points on

308
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 4: ten to ten field goal shooting and nine for nine

309
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 4: in the free throw line, just in the third quarter. Obviously,

310
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 4: it's the Wizards. He's basically going up against Daniel Gafford, who,

311
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 4: unfortunately for him, played him well the first couple of

312
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 4: possessions in the game, so then be he had to

313
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 4: put it on rave reviews though from other Sixers in

314
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 4: the postgame, Nick Nurse said, that's pretty efficient. Tyrese Maxey

315
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 4: said he's good at basketball, and then Beade himself said,

316
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 4: we played a team. We played a team. This was crazy,

317
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 4: a big dub for Embiid. He could have easily gone

318
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 4: for fifty if he played it all in the fourth quarter.

319
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 4: But yeah, he was completely dominant in this one. The

320
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 4: Wizards have nobody to deal with em Bead inside, so

321
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 4: there was nobody to deal with him beat inside, especially

322
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 4: with Tyrese Maxie and set up mode. Eleven assists for him,

323
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 4: zero turnovers. It was just a pick and roll every

324
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 4: single time, especially in the third quarter. They racked up

325
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 4: the points. Also a nice little bench boost from Nick

326
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 4: batoum four to five from three.

327
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 3: Okay, I like that the Celtics lose to the Wolves

328
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 3: their first loss. The Sixers keep winning. That means Wednesday

329
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: night when these two teams play, I mean they're playing

330
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: for first place. Yeah, maybe in the Eastern Conference, or

331
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: at least to hand the other team their second loss.

332
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 3: I also checked basketball references, NBA MVP, a War Tracker.

333
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 3: After that monster in Bead game, I'm like, oh, I

334
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 3: wonder if he jumped up a couple slots. Yeah, Jokic

335
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 3: right now favorite sixty two percent. Yeah, but then it's

336
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: Embiid with about nineteen percent there of their Award Tracker vote,

337
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 3: and it's Luca, Tyrese Maxey, Tatum Koreean and so on.

338
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, he is putting up forty eight and thirty

339
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 3: one minutes. Not bad, not bad. It is against the Wizards,

340
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 3: but not bad in there rolling. I can't wait.

341
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 4: We played it C a team that is a that's all,

342
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 4: but that's a Lee Ellis quote.

343
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 3: This was a game of basketball. This was a game

344
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 3: of basketball. Yeah, all right, let's get it back on

345
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 3: track with an entertaining game here. You're hell well, both

346
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,720
Speaker 3: of us did. My number two pick sga, he returns.

347
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 3: He scores thirty, a very quiet thirty. That's what he does.

348
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 3: As the Thunder East passed the Hawks in the end,

349
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 3: one twenty six to one seventeen. It was it was close.

350
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 3: Isaiah Joe blew this game open at one point. He

351
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 3: hit three reason the span of fifty seconds that gave

352
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 3: him a nice cushion knocks got it to within I

353
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 3: believe six or seven sort of down the stretch. But

354
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 3: it was defense from OKC. They did a really good

355
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 3: job on Trey Young, who shot five of eighteen. Yeah,

356
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,719
Speaker 3: Lou Dort was the primary defender. I mean he had

357
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 3: a huge block actually on Trey Young when it was

358
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: still a game. There was like two minutes to go,

359
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 3: Hawks had the ball and Dort just like snuffed out

360
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 3: a three point attempt there from Trey Young. They went

361
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 3: the other way, and I think that was the one

362
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: where SGA threw the lob to j Dubbs, so that

363
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 3: put them up one, eighteen one or nine. It was

364
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,640
Speaker 3: basically game. But good stuff here from the Thunder, even

365
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 3: though they somehow won a game in which they gave

366
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 3: up twenty five offensive rebounds.

367
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's crazy.

368
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 3: I saw that going around Twitter last night from our

369
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 3: guy Slacked. I'm like, what hold on, that can't be right.

370
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 3: They're winning and they won, you know, sort of handedly

371
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 3: in the end. Yeah, they gave up twenty five offensive

372
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 3: rebounds and still won. They were helped out by the

373
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 3: Hawk shooting thirty seven percent from the field, So yeah,

374
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:58,920
Speaker 3: you can get all the offensive rebounds in the world,

375
00:17:58,920 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 3: but he still got a score.

376
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

377
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the D was there. Couldn't end some possessions,

378
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 3: but the D was there on some of these guys.

379
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 3: So I'll go with that one as my number two pick.

380
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:08,360
Speaker 3: Any notes on that one.

381
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 4: Twenty five offensive rebounds for the Hawks but only nineteen

382
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 4: second chance points.

383
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy.

384
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 4: It doesn't add up. Must have been the Oklahoma City

385
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 4: flu it gets everybody from time to time.

386
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: But yeah, the Tray Young stuff is weird.

387
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 4: He hasn't shot better than fifty percent from the field

388
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 4: in any game this season, shooting thirty three percent in

389
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 4: the early days of the season, only twenty seven from three.

390
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 4: The Hawks went on a nice little win streak right

391
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 4: here before this loss, so theoretically they're thinking, well, we'll

392
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 4: be good once he actually starts coming around. But between

393
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 4: the start of this season and the entirety of last season,

394
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 4: like trace percentages are not great skeets. We'll have to

395
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 4: see if he's able to be a little bit more

396
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 4: efficient going forward. But yeah, big dub for Oklahoma City.

397
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,240
Speaker 4: I saw a nice pass from Chet gpt to Case

398
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 4: and Wallace on the break. That's right, he said he

399
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 4: saw me and then he looked away, but he was

400
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 4: still looking from the corner of his eyes, so he

401
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 4: was fixing to do something crazy.

402
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 3: Yeah he did. Chet Holmgren had a good game. You know,

403
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 3: I already said Williams had a good game, obviously, SGA

404
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,120
Speaker 3: with thirty, Isaiah Joe hitting those threes, you know, everybody contributing.

405
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 3: I guess Giddy had a bit of a rough game

406
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 3: for him, but they got the They got the victory there,

407
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 3: and nice to see SGA back in the lineup. All right,

408
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 3: number three, pick, where are you going? Closest game of

409
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 3: the night. Perhaps a steal.

410
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's a great fist overall pick here ski

411
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,080
Speaker 4: its Bam out a bio triple double. Jimmy Butler scores

412
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 4: twenty eight. The Heat hold off the Lakers one o eight,

413
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 4: one oh seven. Maybe this dropped to the third round

414
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 4: because of the Heat's ugly court.

415
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did. Every time we went to playback to

416
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 3: watch this game, we're like, Oh, it's close entertaining, and

417
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 3: we're like, ugh, what the hell is the.

418
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 4: Core light's reflecting on the floor. No, it's a gradient

419
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 4: and a low contrast red font in the middle of

420
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 4: the black lane.

421
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 3: The Heat culture court looks absolutely atrocious, along with their

422
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 3: jerseys too. It just looks so bad. No, yeah, it

423
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 3: played a part, and it's slipping here because Bam and

424
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 3: Jimmy were.

425
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: I think so.

426
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

427
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 4: And also ugly court. Ugly the court during clutch time. Here,

428
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 4: the Lakers use the ten to one run to cut

429
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 4: the lead. To cut Miami's lead to one with two

430
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 4: forty left in the game. Neither team scored the rest

431
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 4: of the way. The last two minutes and forty seconds

432
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 4: of this game, neither team.

433
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: Scored three throws or field goals crazy, right, that's gonna

434
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 3: be rare.

435
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 4: But it came down to the final couple of possessions.

436
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 3: Here.

437
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 4: The Heat had the ball at twenty eight seconds left.

438
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 4: They were up one. They got a chance to ice things.

439
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 4: The Lakers are basically playing his zone with Anthony Davis out,

440
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 4: Christian Wood manning the middle. Bam Adebayo catches the ball

441
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 4: at the free throw line. He's having a great game,

442
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 4: travels doesn't even look at the rim trying to make

443
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 4: a play. So that was weird, but it gave the

444
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 4: Lakers a chance to win the game. Lebron drives hard

445
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 4: to the rim, draws two rises, kicks it out to

446
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 4: the corner. Wide open three for Donielle Marshall. No, no, no,

447
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 4: wide open three for Cam Reddish, Klanker Rooney. You never

448
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 4: want to hear Cam Reddish for the win, You don't.

449
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he's wide open. The guy can hit a

450
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 3: corner three of the well, he should be able to.

451
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 4: They got a lot of guys that are missing time,

452
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 4: and he missed that shot. I also kind of thought

453
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 4: Lebron could have dropped it off the Christian Wood for

454
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 4: a layup right under. He's sealed and bam was like

455
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 4: coming over obviously to take away Lebron's layup. But what

456
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 4: am I supposed to say? That guy is one of

457
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 4: the best passers in NBA history. If he thinks that

458
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 4: the better play is Cam reddish, he's probably right. That's

459
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 4: how you empower people. Give him shots to miss, and

460
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 4: then once it comes actual winning time, take the shot yourself.

461
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,239
Speaker 4: Some nice lines though. For the Heat Jimmy Butler went

462
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 4: for twenty eight BAM out of bio twenty two points,

463
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 4: twenty rebounds, ten assists. Well that's a lot of roast

464
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 4: beef and the first twenty rebound triple double in Heat history.

465
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, okay, I mean it's a hell of a lone.

466
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 4: Yeah. I guess he was probably think like, maybe Lebron

467
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 4: did it, he would be the only guy.

468
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, true, because like you're not gonna go a

469
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 3: lot twenty boards, yeah anything, like like maybe boards but

470
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 3: not sis. Yeah. Uh okay, interesting, Bam, great game and

471
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 3: you're right, honestly, great defense. Come over and at least

472
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 3: challenge Lebron there at the rim, make him make a decision.

473
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 3: Kicked it to Cam just couldn't knock it down, and

474
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 3: Austin Reeves had another decent game there for the Lakers too,

475
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 3: though they're losing here and Lebron is playing a ton

476
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 3: of minutes. And oh yeah, Anthony Davis left this game. Well,

477
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: he left it, he came back, he left it, he

478
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 3: came back, and ultimately they shut him down. I believe

479
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 3: he's got a groin injury, but he's saying he's good

480
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 3: to go on Wednesday, so maybe it's not serious.

481
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 4: Yeah. The good news you mentioned Austin Reeves. He's hooping

482
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 4: right now. Twenty three points, ten rebounds, nine assists. The

483
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 4: bad news is that the Lakers are zero and four

484
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 4: on the road to start the season. In the early

485
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 4: days here and then, Yeah, the Anthony Davis thing was weird.

486
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 4: It was like they called it a groin spasm. Sounds nice.

487
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 4: Sounded said it was a hip spasm. It doesn't sound

488
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 4: no nice. Nonetheless, he said he's supposed to be back playing,

489
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 4: or he wants to play at least Wednesday. We shall see.

490
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 3: Okay, my third pick, I guess sixth. Overall, I'm gonna

491
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 3: go with Giannis going for thirty six and twelve as

492
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 3: the Bucks beat the Nets one twenty nine five, close game,

493
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 3: back and forth, a fair actually game runs people. This

494
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,360
Speaker 3: was it was gonna be the Cam Thomas game if

495
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 3: the Nets had held on to win. This guy scores

496
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: forty five points on thirty three shots. Who that guy

497
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 3: will let it go. But he's on fire. Guys like

498
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 3: scoring nearly twenty nine points per game this season. But

499
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 3: in the end, the Bucks scored the final seventeen excuse me,

500
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 3: the seventeen of the final twenty seven points, so they

501
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 3: they got them when it mattered most. The freak did

502
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 3: a lot of his damage, lady. He had nine points

503
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 3: sort of during that late span, had a couple of

504
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 3: blocks as well, or he deterred a couple shots at least,

505
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 3: and they pulled it out. They needed this, I think

506
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 3: the Bucks did. The Nets are scrappy and they're missing guys,

507
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 3: so you know, no Claxton, no Cam Johnson. But the

508
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 3: Buck shot a season high forty eight attempts from deep.

509
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 3: As a team, they made sixteen of them. It's thirty

510
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 3: three percent shooting there. But the starters five for twenty

511
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 3: seven from distance. Yiannis, he took a season high seven

512
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 3: to three pointers. He only hit one, but it was

513
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 3: a big one. It was a second Chancey's right. He

514
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 3: took a three, he missed it. I think it was

515
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 3: brook Lopez that tapped it out to him and he

516
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 3: let it go again with some confidence and he splashed

517
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 3: that one. So a pretty important one. But you know,

518
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 3: always weird to see you, honest, shooting seven three pointers.

519
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 3: I can't have happened a lot in his career. I

520
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 3: didn't check, but he's.

521
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 4: Taken a lot of jumpers to start this early season,

522
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 4: too many. But maybe he's just trying to save himself

523
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 4: a little bit for further on down the line. Seven

524
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 4: Bucks players finished in double digits. I mean, they had

525
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 4: to scrap this one out though, against the tame that

526
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 4: they should beat pretty easily. But then you go back

527
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 4: and look at the guards who have played against Milwaukee

528
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 4: so far this season season an opener thirty one for Maxi,

529
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 4: twenty on eleven for Trey Young, the next game thirty

530
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 4: five for Tyler Hero, twenty four and eleven for Shrewder,

531
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 4: and then back to back games forty five for Jalen

532
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 4: Brunson and forty five for Cam Thomas. They are flammable,

533
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 4: yes right now, though Adrian Griffin has made a change

534
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 4: more drop for brook Lopez. Basically, the Bucks came and said, Hey,

535
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,919
Speaker 4: let's go back to what works here. It worked well

536
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 4: against the Knicks. I thought they played pretty solid basketball.

537
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 4: But I mean giving up one twenty five to a

538
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 4: NETS team that's just like Iso iso iso, that's bad stuff.

539
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do like that. Jay Crowder saw some significant

540
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 3: time down the stretch in this one. I thought he

541
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 3: was really good for Milwaukee and and helped him get

542
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 3: the victory defensely, at least down the end. Zilla wrote

543
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 3: in his newsletter this morning, speaking of like guards sort

544
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 3: of flaming the Bucks here, early Zilla wrote, quote something

545
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 3: that is probably nothing that I still feel somewhat obligated

546
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 3: to mention. Damian Lillard is a minus fifty three in

547
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 3: two hundred and two minutes this season. The Bucks are

548
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,439
Speaker 3: a plus seventy one in the eighty six minutes with

549
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 3: Lillard on the bench. Katzooks, it's right. I mean it

550
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 3: goes hand in hand with what you just said. A

551
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: lot of those points are putting Damian Lillard in the action,

552
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 3: and guards are are torching them. And Cam Thomas was

553
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 3: one of them, and until he wasn't that guy. That

554
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 3: guy has never seen a shot he doesn't love. But

555
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 3: forty five is forty five.

556
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,400
Speaker 4: I must say something that's interesting here when I'm looking

557
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 4: at all the break downs here, only fifty eight points

558
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 4: in the second half for the Brooklyn Nets and only

559
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,440
Speaker 4: three minutes and forty three seconds of playing time for

560
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 4: Malik Beasley.

561
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 3: Lillard is going to be starting.

562
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 4: He's going to be playing forty minutes a game when

563
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 4: it really matters for the Bucks, and he's not going

564
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 4: to be a plus defensively, which means you can't have

565
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 4: a guy like Malik Beasley out there all that often

566
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 4: alongside Lillard as well, because then there's two perimeter targets

567
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 4: for other teams. Yeah, you can deal with one of them,

568
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 4: I think, And you know, as Middleton comes along and

569
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,120
Speaker 4: is able to handle bigger minutes loads, maybe we see

570
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 4: less and less Beasley. But there was a reason he

571
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 4: was out of the playoff rotation for the Lakers last season,

572
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 4: and it's looking like that same reason could be the

573
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 4: case for the Bucks here.

574
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have options at least to obviously play instead

575
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 3: of him, be it marjo On Beauchamp or Conaton or

576
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 3: even Crowder obviously in a similar role. That's a good point, though.

577
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: I was going to make one more, but now I

578
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 3: forget it. About that game. What the hell was I

579
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 3: going to sell you? I don't know. Let's move on.

580
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 4: It'll come man.

581
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 3: It was good too. It was probably a classic moment

582
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 3: we were about to have. It was probably a short

583
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,640
Speaker 3: we were about to clip, and it was gonna get

584
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 3: millions and millions of views. But I can't fucking remember

585
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 3: it at all. I told you I was up all night.

586
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,199
Speaker 3: Final pick. Okay, that was a bit for a bit,

587
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 3: but now it's actually angering me that I can't remember

588
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 3: final pick. Here, watch still on the board. Where are

589
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 3: you going?

590
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 4: I can hear the fans, they're chanting, oh, pick, Oh.

591
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 3: Don't do it?

592
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: Some love for the Bulls in eighteen threes and a

593
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: big duf against the Jazz. I even considered Indiana Pacers

594
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: scoring one hundred and fifty two on the Spurs, but

595
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 1: ultimately I got to go with Nicola Jokic, passing Lebron

596
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,199
Speaker 1: James on the all time triple double list in a

597
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 1: win over the Pelicans last night. Thirty five points, fourteen rebounds,

598
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 1: twelve assists for triple double number one hundred and eight

599
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: for Nicola Jokic in a six hundred and four games. Wow,

600
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: that's won every six games and I'm like, in the

601
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: past four seasons it's probably won every three games, hit

602
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: maybe two every three games.

603
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 4: I don't know, I'd have to do the math, but

604
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 4: it is crazy. I think the number one thing I

605
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 4: saw on Twitter last night as this game was going

606
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 4: on was bored Neo fighting Agent Smith in the matrix

607
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,159
Speaker 4: where he's just like, oh sweet, this is easy. This

608
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 4: is easy for me because it is so easy for

609
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 4: Yokich right now you mentioned it, he's a top the

610
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 4: Basketball Reference MVP tracker. Because this was a pretty easy

611
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 4: win for Denver in the long run against a good team.

612
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 4: You know, the Pelicans have some health problems, but Zion

613
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 4: was out there, Ingram was out there, and no Jamal

614
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 4: Murray for the Nuggets. That's concerning this. Yeah, he's gonna

615
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 4: be out for a while. But my favorite part of

616
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 4: this game was a rookie shootout career high thirty one

617
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 4: points and seven threes for Jordan Hawkins getting the start

618
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 4: for CJ mccollin there on the Pelicans, and then a

619
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 4: career high twenty one points in five threes for Julian

620
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 4: Strawther off the Denver bench. He had his own takeover

621
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 4: a moment basically in the fourth quarter, scored twelve points

622
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 4: in five minutes, hitting threes duncan. It looked awesome. The

623
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 4: guy looks like an actor to me. I don't know

624
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 4: who it is, but he just looks like it to

625
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 4: be maybe a character guy. But cool stuff from Jordan

626
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 4: and Julian last night. Did you see yo Kich post game?

627
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 4: Stepped to the podium and said, I know what you're

628
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,239
Speaker 4: gonna ask me, so let me just do it, And

629
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 4: then he proceeded to talk for two minutes with all

630
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 4: the questions he figured everybody was gonna ask him, and

631
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 4: doing a pretty good job.

632
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 3: Like he hit on like the rook like how they're

633
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 3: playing obviously, and the team they played against. It was

634
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 3: quite funny. Yeah. Then I think he got up and left.

635
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 3: He was like, let's just do this a lot quicker here,

636
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 3: and then he went through all his points.

637
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,479
Speaker 4: Maybe that's just how he lives his life, like he

638
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 4: can foresee everything that's gonna happen on the basketball court,

639
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 4: so he has all these triple doubles quite easily and

640
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 4: just cruises through games barely breaking a sweat and putting

641
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 4: up monster numbers in postgame press conferences. He knows the

642
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 4: questions that are coming.

643
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 3: This is why he's into horse racing. He knows how

644
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 3: the results are gonna go down. He's a modern day

645
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 3: Biff Tanner. He's got the Almanac. We figured it out.

646
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 4: Wow, what a scandal, What a scandal. It turns out

647
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 4: he went back to the future, found a sports almanac

648
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 4: and came back and it became the best basketball player

649
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 4: of all time. If I was Biff.

650
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: Tannon, that's what I would do too.

651
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 3: We've talked about this before, and like Jokich even uh,

652
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 3: you know, I wouldn't hit every shot because we have

653
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 3: to make it somewhat unbelievable. Yeah, exactly. People would be

654
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 3: on to me if I shot, you gotta miss some. Wow,

655
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:33,479
Speaker 3: he's got the sports Almanac. Wow, that's incredible. All right,

656
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 3: great final pick, My last pick here with with lots

657
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 3: on the board. You know, the Warriors got to win

658
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 3: in Detroit. The Pistons hung around for a good chunk

659
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 3: of that game. Then Curry sort of took over. We

660
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 3: had a couple other blowouts, Pacers just killing the Spurs.

661
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 3: Your bulls did quite well against the Jazz. But I'm

662
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 3: gonna go with Elprin shngun flirting with the triple double

663
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 3: to help the Rockets beat the Kings one to ninety seven.

664
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 3: What Yeah, Houston for the second consecutive game, just killed

665
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 3: the Sacramento Kings. The Rockets have won three straight. They

666
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 3: have improved. Three and three. They are five hundred for

667
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 3: the first time since October twenty second, twenty twenty one,

668
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 3: when they started the twenty one to twenty two season.

669
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 3: A very cool one in one let to start, but

670
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 3: they're three and three. Shenggun was awesome. He fell just

671
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 3: two rebounds, shy, he got it an assists. When you

672
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 3: hear seventeen twelve and eight, you think points rebounds, assists. No, no, no, no, no,

673
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 3: not with Shnggun. He had the assists. He just needed

674
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 3: two boards. And the reason he didn't get it is

675
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 3: because he played twenty six minutes, didn't play in the

676
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: fourth quarter, which was very Jokic like. But an awesome game,

677
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 3: and you really can see the effect that I think

678
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 3: Imay Yudoka, their head coach Van Vliet, obviously of that

679
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,760
Speaker 3: point guard and Dylan Brooks are bringing to this team.

680
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: They're playing with a little fu attitude. Shenggun after the game.

681
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 3: We're playing like animals out there right now. And Dylan

682
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 3: Brooks's on fire. This guy is not. He's on fire,

683
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 3: but he's not even attempting like twenty shots a game.

684
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 3: He is really playing controlled and is just hitting a

685
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 3: lot of threes. Kings are zero and three without Deer

686
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 3: and Fox, so big part of the slide here. He

687
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 3: might be back soon, But there's another reason the Kings

688
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 3: are owing three apologies to Deuce and Mo, especially Mo.

689
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 3: Don't think I haven't noticed that the Kings have not

690
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 3: won a game since the broadcast team added Mike Bibby

691
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 3: as a pregame postgame analyst. They haven't won. Now, that's

692
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 3: not a coincidence. You might say, it's Fox. Oh yeah, No,

693
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 3: it's Bibby. The Bibby vibes are there now and suddenly

694
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 3: things are gonna go to shit. Okay, that's my working theory.

695
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: We've got a lot of crazy theories here on today's show.

696
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 3: Jokicch actually as an almanac and Bibby is the reason

697
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 3: the Kings are on a slide. But yeah, weird Kings

698
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 3: schedule two. They've played fourteen, that's it. They've played the

699
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 3: Warriors twice and lost both. They've played the Rockets twice

700
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 3: and lost both and then the other teams they've played

701
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 3: they won. They beat the Jazz on opening night and

702
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 3: they beat the Lakers in overtime. Just a strange, weird

703
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 3: schedule from pretty weird. Yeah, but they need Fox back

704
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 3: big time. But still pretty embarrassing to get hammered like

705
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 3: that in both games one game. It's a long season.

706
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 3: Happens all the time. It's rare to see it in

707
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: back to back situations, you know, back to back in

708
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 3: the sense that they played them two times in a row.

709
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 4: Here, Yeah, they're bottom ten on both sides of the

710
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 4: ball right now. You're expected on the defensive side, but

711
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 4: with Fox out, the offense just ain't the same. Quiet

712
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 4: game for sibonus last night, one of my big takeaways

713
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 4: is I think alprin she Gun has upgraded his dunk package.

714
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 3: This guy's throwing down every single night right now.

715
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 4: Had another big one last night, had a couple of

716
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 4: the first week of the season as well.

717
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 3: Looks more athletic.

718
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 4: That helps. And you know, the Rockets I think are

719
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 4: like fifteenth in defense right now. Yeah, if he can

720
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 4: hang defensively, he's gonna be a good player.

721
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 3: Yeah for sure. And speaking of plays, he had the

722
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 3: big dunk. Best play last night probably the Pacers Isaiah

723
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,439
Speaker 3: Jackson blocking web Min Yama at the rim.

724
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was sick.

725
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,879
Speaker 3: That was wild. I mean, it's like cool to see

726
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: anyone that's seven four get blocked. But like he came over,

727
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if Webben Yama was gonna dunk it.

728
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 3: I don't know what he was going to go, go

729
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 3: gadget arm and he just like lays it in. Its weird,

730
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 3: but uh, he got caught by surprise there Isaiah Jackson

731
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 3: as the Pacers, like I said, cruised to victory.

732
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

733
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,320
Speaker 4: It was either that or Furkan Korkmas finding Joel Embiid

734
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 4: cutting for a dunk. It was a sick furk mass

735
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 4: nice man nice.

736
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 3: I rewound it so many times.

737
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 4: I was like, is that him Corkma?

738
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 3: He didn't believe it. I didn't believe it. Why was

739
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 3: he in the dunker spot? Didn't make any sense more like.

740
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 4: The disher spot.

741
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 3: There you go, and I guess the only other game

742
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 3: we didn't mention was the Mavericks taking care of the

743
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 3: Magic on the Road one seventeen one or two. That

744
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 3: was close for a while. We were keeping our eye

745
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 3: on that one. The Dallas Cowboys, Orlando Magic, Dallas j

746
00:34:58,360 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 3: Dallas Mavericks.

747
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,320
Speaker 4: That was a you know, the Mavericks get credit for

748
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 4: a clutch win here because it was like a five

749
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 4: point game with specifically five minutes left, and then they

750
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,880
Speaker 4: won the last like five minutes by ten points. So

751
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 4: it wasn't a clutch game in the end, But since

752
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 4: those three seconds ticked off from five minutes to four

753
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 4: fifty seven, it counts well. Mavericks undefeated in clutch games.

754
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 3: Well, there you go. I'm gonna I'm gonna bring up

755
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,760
Speaker 3: some clutch stats after our first break, So don't go anywhere.

756
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 3: We'll be right back and then we'll give you seven

757
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 3: stats you need to know. Don't go anywhere, all right,

Speaker 3: Seven stats you need to know? Oh yeah, calculate them.

773
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 3: See the cards, see the stats. Here we go. We're

774
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 3: looking at some notable numbers from the first two weeks

775
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 3: of the regular season. Huge shout out, by the way

776
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 3: to Brian Martin at NBA dot com for inspiring the

777
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 3: idea and helping me sort of parse through this small

778
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 3: sample size. First one is what you need to know.

779
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 3: We love points here on No Dunks Mitchell and Embiid.

780
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,919
Speaker 3: They lead five players averaging thirty plus points per game.

781
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:48,800
Speaker 3: Last season we had a record tying six players average

782
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 3: over thirty points per game. So this year we're currently

783
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 3: at five. It's Donovan Mitchell and Joel Embiid at thirty

784
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 3: two point five points per game. Luca thirty one point six.

785
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 3: He's played seven games, Steph Curry thirty point nine. He's

786
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 3: played eight games. A lot on the road. The Warriors

787
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 3: have had a very heavy road schedule, and then Tatum

788
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 3: at thirty point five. We have thirty five others who

789
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 3: are averaging at least twenty points per game. Durant is

790
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 3: twenty nine point nine, so he's nearly there at the

791
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 3: thirty point per game mark. And then Cam Thomas I

792
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 3: said this earlier, He's at twenty eight point seven points

793
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 3: per game through seven games. Probably the most surprising name

794
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 3: there on the top of the leaderboard.

795
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 4: Any thoughts, who was the sixth guy that had thirty

796
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 4: points per game last season? Was it Devin Booker? Did

797
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 4: he get over thirty points per game? No, he's twenty

798
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 4: seven point eight. He obviously hasn't played hardly at all

799
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 4: this season. He's at thirty one point five points per game.

800
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,240
Speaker 4: So if he racks up enough games maybe he passes

801
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 4: Kevin Durant here to make it to tie the record

802
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,879
Speaker 4: at six. But otherwise I don't see anybody else getting there.

803
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 3: Well, Darreon Fox is actually averaging thirty one point three

804
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 3: points per game, but he's only played three games. Okay, yeah,

805
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 3: I highly doubt that would stay that high. That's insane,

806
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think you're right. I think I think

807
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,759
Speaker 3: that's six. That record tying six guys going over thirty

808
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 3: last year will probably hold, but we'll probably settle into

809
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 3: four or five here. That sounds right to me. Tyre's Haliburton,

810
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 3: by the way, is averaging twenty four and twelve any

811
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 3: shooting with shooting splits of forty nine forty ninety two

812
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 3: right now. Net beat there for Tyre's Helibert. Okay, the

813
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 3: Celtics and the seventy six Ers are top five on

814
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 3: both ends. We're talking offensive rating and defensive rating. Five

815
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 3: teams with the top offensive ratings in the league right now,

816
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 3: Pacers one twenty point four. Then the Celtics and Sixers

817
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 3: are tied at one nineteen point nine. You got the

818
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 3: Mavericks at one nineteen point seven and the Nuggets at

819
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 3: one nineteen point two. Those are some great offenses right now.

820
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 3: By the way, depends where you look for these NBA

821
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 3: dot Com and Basketball Reference. They're offensive and defensive ratings,

822
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: they're slightly different, so it might be, you know, a

823
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 3: little out of whack if you're looking at Basketball Reference.

824
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 3: I'm pulling from NBA dot Com. Five teams with the

825
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 3: top defensive ratings. Timberwolves right now significantly one hundred point

826
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 3: seven defensive rating, then the Knicks, then the Magic, then

827
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 3: the Celtics and the Sixers. So Boston and Philly both

828
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 3: five and one, are the only teams right now in

829
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 3: the top five on both sides of the basketball.

830
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 4: And I think you would say they've maybe been the

831
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 4: two best teams definitely in the Eastern Conference. You can

832
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 4: throw the Nuggets in the mix as well. I see

833
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 4: on Basketball Reference they are sixth on both ends right now.

834
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 4: They had that eighty nine point game where they just

835
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 4: it was their one bad game so far this season.

836
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 4: But those have been the three best teams to start

837
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 4: the season so far. Celtics expected, Nuggets expected, the seventy

838
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 4: six Ers. Playing this wall is a bit of a surprise.

839
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,879
Speaker 4: They don't seem to have any sort of effect from

840
00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 4: how things went down with James Harden. They obviously brought

841
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 4: in a whole bunch of power forwards. Now the vibes

842
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 4: are good. Everybody can score twenty points and they're starting

843
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 4: lineup it seems like and he got Furkan Korkman's just

844
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 4: dishing out.

845
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,319
Speaker 3: There, just dish, all right, Our next stat you need

846
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 3: to know, I promised you clutch points. Here they come.

847
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,520
Speaker 3: Steph Curry has twenty eight clutch points. He leads the way,

848
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 3: but we have seven players in the league that have

849
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,439
Speaker 3: already racked up twenty plus clutch points. Trey, you talked

850
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 3: about it. It's this idea of a close game. It's

851
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 3: in within five points in the final five minutes. That's

852
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 3: clutch play. That's how the NBA defines it. So Steph

853
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 3: twenty eight points nine to thirteen in eighteen minutes of

854
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,839
Speaker 3: clutch play. He's pretty good.

855
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 4: Pretty good.

856
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 3: Lebron twenty six points, ten to fourteen shooting in twenty

857
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 3: seven point nine minutes. You know, we're obviously getting into

858
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 3: seconds there. Luca twenty five points, eight for eleven from

859
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,320
Speaker 3: the field, five to seven from three in about eighteen

860
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 3: and a half minutes across a perfect Dallas Mavericks clutch

861
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 3: play record.

862
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:51,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course.

863
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 3: Yeah. And then just a final note, when Minyama at

864
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 3: age nineteen, he ranks tied for fifth in the league.

865
00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 3: He's got twenty three clutch points.

866
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 4: Scored a ton and and that went against the Suns.

867
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,399
Speaker 3: Yes, that's all right, Yeah, eight or nine or something

868
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 3: that he had. All right, next one, let's talk a

869
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 3: little bit more about Wemby. Wemby versus Chet here for

870
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 3: the Rookie of the Year. Through the first two weeks

871
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 3: of this season, we got five rookies averaging double digit points.

872
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 3: Wemby and Chet Holmgren are leading the way tail of

873
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 3: the tape. Here's Wemby's stats. Nineteen point four points per

874
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 3: game on forty six percent, shooting about eight and a

875
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 3: half rebounds, one point seven assists, one point three steals,

876
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 3: two point six blocks. He's shooting thirty two percent from three,

877
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 3: seventy six percent at the line. He's averaging a lot

878
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 3: of turnovers three point six turnovers. You know, that's just

879
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 3: behind Scoot Henderson when you're looking at the rookies there.

880
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 3: I think Scoot was averaging for a game until he

881
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 3: left with injury. And Wemby's playing twenty nine minutes per game.

882
00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 3: Spurs are three and four. Okay yeah. Chet seventeen points

883
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 3: per game on fifty six percent, shooting eight rebounds, two

884
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 3: point seven assist per game, one steal, two point four blocks.

885
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 3: He's shooting nearly fifty four percent from three on three

886
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 3: point seven attempts per game, so not as many attempts

887
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 3: as Wemby, but decent amount. He's ninety percent of the

888
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,359
Speaker 3: line guy's basically money if he gets there, and he

889
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,399
Speaker 3: just like Wemby, playing just under thirty minutes per game,

890
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 3: OKAC four and three. So they're pretty comparable. So we're

891
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 3: gonna have a fun race here.

892
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, both great starts kind of as expected. I think

893
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 4: that when we look at the season long stats, they

894
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 4: will be kind of similar to this. Victor will likely

895
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 4: lead on the counting stats like higher points per game,

896
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,720
Speaker 4: higher rebounds per game, higher blocks per game, and Chet

897
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 4: will probably lead on all of the efficiency stats because

898
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 4: he's not the number one guy on his team. He's

899
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 4: not taking you know, like between the legs step back

900
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 4: three pointers like Victor, as they're letting him really explore

901
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,680
Speaker 4: his game, whereas Chet's playing like standard stretch five basketball

902
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 4: alongside a top ten dude in Shay Gil just Alexander.

903
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 3: So what you're asking from these guys is different.

904
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 4: And that's why it's gonna be pretty interesting when it

905
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 4: comes down to it in the Rookie of the Year race,

906
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 4: because okay, see we'll finish ahead of San Antonio, uh

907
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 4: in the standings, But I think it's over. I mean,

908
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 4: I think it's going to be over for the Rookie

909
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 4: of the Year race after that thirty eight point game

910
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 4: for Victor Webbinama. Who's going to vote against Victor we.

911
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 3: So that's a fair point, I don't. I mean, if

912
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 3: the Thunderer, I don't know, fifteen games better than San

913
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 3: Antonio at the end of the year and the numbers

914
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 3: are comparable, he's gonna garner a lot of attention and

915
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 3: deserving votes. I'm talking about Chet, of course. Uh, you know,

916
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 3: I understand what you're saying, though, I mean, I would

917
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 3: still be thinking Wenby's going to get it, and that's

918
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 3: how the votes will go. But I do think it's

919
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 3: going to be a lot closer than maybe some thought

920
00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,959
Speaker 3: coming in. Though there were people out there saying, hey, Chet,

921
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 3: Holmgren has a dark horse Rookie of Year pick. You

922
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:47,919
Speaker 3: were saying that's a long time I heard other people

923
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 3: say it. It's like that idea is like he's had

924
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:53,839
Speaker 3: a whole season in an NBA organization, obviously not playing

925
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 3: because of injury, and that's worked for other guys to

926
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 3: win this award, and I think it is a leg

927
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 3: up on some of the other guys, but any other

928
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 3: rookies have impressed outside of those two. I mean, I

929
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 3: don't think anyone else is gonna have a chance to

930
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 3: win Rookie of the Year. But who else is impress you.

931
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 4: Asa Thompson, I think has been like the third most

932
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 4: impressive rookie to me. Just the way he's able to

933
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 4: stuff the stat sheet so far. You know, the jumper

934
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 4: is definitely gonna be a work in progress. Every three

935
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 4: he takes is gonna be wide open this season because

936
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 4: nobody's gonna be closing out on him. But he looks

937
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 4: like he's already gonna be one of the top defensive

938
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 4: players in the league. Just the athleticism in the length

939
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 4: and the anticipation and timing that he brings out on

940
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 4: the perimeter. He's gonna be a lockdown guy like he

941
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,719
Speaker 4: gave Shae Gill just Alexander a ton of trouble in

942
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 4: their matchup.

943
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 3: Derek Lively the second has played great for the Mavericks.

944
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 3: Brandon Miller has really impressed. I know no one cares

945
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 3: about the Charlotte Hornets, but he's looked really good like

946
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 3: he belongs, of course as a number two pick. And

947
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,800
Speaker 3: a couple others that I'm sure we'll be talking about

948
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 3: as the season goes on. All Right, next one here

949
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 3: back to scoring we saw. Actually, I want you to

950
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,839
Speaker 3: guess how many forty plus point games do you think

951
00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 3: we had last season? By the entire season? Yes, how many?

952
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 3: Total number, not by the number of players. But I'll

953
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 3: give you both forty Burgers last season.

954
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 4: Give me an NBA season eighty two eighty two to

955
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 4: forty point games.

956
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 3: We had two hundred and three forty plus point games

957
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 3: last season.

958
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,319
Speaker 4: I didn't have any sort of rent up.

959
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 3: Guess fifty seven different players. That's a lot. Well, two

960
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 3: weeks into this season, there have already been eleven forty Burgers,

961
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 3: eleven forty plus point games by ten different players. Steph

962
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 3: Curry is the only one to do it twice. He's

963
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 3: the only one to go back and eat twice to

964
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 3: get a second burger. Forty one versus the Kings, forty

965
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 3: two versus the Pelicans, both wins. Zach Levine has still

966
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 3: the highest point output in a game, fifty one in

967
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 3: a loss to Detroit. Four other forty Burgers came in

968
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,640
Speaker 3: a loss. Cam Thomas there last night, Liburton, Brunson, and

969
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 3: Donovan Mitchell, and then the other ones uh In wins

970
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 3: Embiid with forty eight last night, Durant de Jontay Murray

971
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:12,200
Speaker 3: and Luca Okay, so like outside of maybe Cam Thomas,

972
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 3: but we've seen him do that before. I guess honestly,

973
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 3: Haliburton scoring over forty that's all hell of a lot

974
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 3: of points for a guy that's like, no one has

975
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 3: more of a playmaker. So that's a huge quarter. Yeah, exact,

976
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 3: Jordan wore a quarter, that's right, twenty five is what

977
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 3: it was.

978
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, but yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if he

979
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,320
Speaker 4: goes over forty again, great shooter. Yeah, and the Pacers

980
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:33,319
Speaker 4: just like play lightning speeds, so sure they are putting

981
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 4: up some serious points. But uh, what did you say

982
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 4: that the total number one from last year to one

983
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 4: two three, two oh three seems in jeopardy to me?

984
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 3: Fifty seven different guys.

985
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 4: Fifty seven different guys let's name them, all.

986
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 3: Right, I mean that's that is so many. Yeah, I'm

987
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 3: sort of with you. I don't think we get to

988
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 3: that level, but it'll be we'll get it. We'll get close.

989
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 3: You know, it will be over one hundred and fifty

990
00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 3: forty plus point games and we'll probably have thirty five

991
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 3: different guys like I. I mean, of course, we haven't

992
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 3: there's no Lebron, there's no A D there's no Anthony Edwards.

993
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 1: You know.

994
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like you go on and on and on.

995
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,400
Speaker 3: A bunch of great scores. As for big beef performances,

996
00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 3: which is twenty plus rebounds in a game, right three total? Yeah, bam.

997
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 3: Last night Vucci baby, he had twenty and DeAndre Ayton

998
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 3: hm with the most rebounds in the game this season

999
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:21,839
Speaker 3: at twenty three.

1000
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:24,399
Speaker 4: He's leading the league in rebounding right now.

1001
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 3: Eight.

1002
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 4: DeAndre Ayton as well. Yeah, Sabanis didn't have a good

1003
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 4: game last night. I think he had eight, so I

1004
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 4: dropped him point one rebounds behind DeAndre Ayton.

1005
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 3: Okay, keeping your eye on that. I like that always,

1006
00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 3: all right. Next one, here a stat you need to know.

1007
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,840
Speaker 3: This is fun. Lebron owning the restricted area. The guys,

1008
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,920
Speaker 3: what thirty eight years old, you're twenty one? Still the

1009
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 3: best in the restricted area. But we've had four players

1010
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:52,240
Speaker 3: who have scored over forty plus baskets in the restricted area.

1011
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 3: Lebron forty five field goals made in the restricted area,

1012
00:47:55,280 --> 00:48:00,439
Speaker 3: shooting seventy eight point nine percent. Zion forty two field

1013
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 3: goals made on sixty five point six percent shooting Giannis

1014
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 3: forty on seventy three percent shooting, and then this last

1015
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 3: one very difficult.

1016
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:10,760
Speaker 4: You want to take a stab out of it at Yokic

1017
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 4: or Embiid, then not.

1018
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 3: Yolkic or Embiid. That's why it's interesting. With forty field

1019
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 3: goals made at eighty one point six percent.

1020
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:19,400
Speaker 4: Shooting forty field goals eighty one.

1021
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 3: That's tough. You gotta like this guy is not getting

1022
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 3: the ball and going to work. He's just scoring in

1023
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,240
Speaker 3: the restricted area, probably on alley oops.

1024
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon.

1025
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:35,280
Speaker 3: Nicely done, sir nice. Aaron Gordon is forty for forty

1026
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 3: nine in the restricted area outside of it, two for

1027
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 3: eight from in the paint non restricted area, one for

1028
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:47,240
Speaker 3: eight from mid range, and four for sixteen from three spell.

1029
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 3: He is doing his work at the exact room. But yeah,

1030
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,759
Speaker 3: Aaron Gordon, the fourth there is or at least forty plus.

1031
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 3: That surprised me, know yourself, that's right, final one. You

1032
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 3: sort of already slipped it in. But the Celtics, they

1033
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 3: lead the lead league with the best fourteen point one

1034
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 3: net rating. The next two seventy six ers twelve point six,

1035
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,280
Speaker 3: Nuggets eleven point eight, and those are your three best teams.

1036
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:16,719
Speaker 3: So good job net rating Celtics, Sixers, Nuggets. However order

1037
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 3: you want to put them in, it does feel like

1038
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 3: right now through two weeks they are the best teams

1039
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 3: as they leave the league in net rating. Fun note here, though,

1040
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 3: Spurs ranked dead last in the NBA with a minus

1041
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,440
Speaker 3: eleven point six net rating.

1042
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 4: They got smoked one game, right, they got smoked?

1043
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 3: Two games?

1044
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, that'll do it.

1045
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, two shallackings. They lost to the Clippers by forty

1046
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 3: in late October, and they lost to the Pacers last

1047
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 3: night by forty one. But so there's three and four.

1048
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 3: But they have the worst net ratings stuff at.

1049
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:48,279
Speaker 4: The end of the year.

1050
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 3: That's right. So there you go again. Thanks to Brian Martin,

1051
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 3: Thanks the NBA dot Com. Some stats you need to

1052
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 3: know early in the season. Two weeks in, does it

1053
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: feel like two weeks to you? Feel like two months,

1054
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 3: two days, two hours, two minutes. It feels like perfectly

1055
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 3: two weeks.

1056
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,840
Speaker 4: It feels like we've watched exactly two weeks of basketball.

1057
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 4: I agree with the teams that are starting to reveal

1058
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 4: themselves too.

1059
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 3: When will we be doing another tier?

1060
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 4: Yeah? See, for me, the next tier ranking has to

1061
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 4: be post trade deadline. Okay, we're getting to look at

1062
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 4: what the teams actually are going to look like.

1063
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 3: I'm fine with that.

1064
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,440
Speaker 4: In the postseason, yeah, save your teers, save your tiers.

1065
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 3: One more break and when we come back. Tweet of

1066
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 3: the night, don't go anywhere. Okay, let's start wrapping up

1067
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 3: today's classic with a little tweet of the night.

1068
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 5: Tweet of the night. Wow.

1069
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:42,439
Speaker 3: A few tweets from the same guy named Ben at

1070
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:46,279
Speaker 3: Ben underscore dow set. I thought this was interesting. I mean,

1071
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 3: this is for the sick cos only, but this is

1072
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 3: fascinating to me, so Ben reported yesterday. His sources say

1073
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 3: in two and a half weeks since my initial report,

1074
00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 3: which he had below on a Twitter thread on issues

1075
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 3: with the NBA new Hawk Eye optical tracking system, problems

1076
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 3: have only increased in scope. Tensions between the team's staffs

1077
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 3: and the NBA League office are sky high after another

1078
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:16,400
Speaker 3: disastrous league wide call today. He went on to explain

1079
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 3: here examples of problems teams are seeing the data from

1080
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 3: this Hawkeye optical tracking system. It's it's coming through with

1081
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,799
Speaker 3: glitches showing more than ten players on the court at once.

1082
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 3: That's a problem. Specialty in season turny courts are confusing

1083
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 3: the cameras, resulting in bad data and full games of

1084
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:41,880
Speaker 3: team data are still missing. There is no timetables for recovery.

1085
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:45,399
Speaker 3: So this is I guess, causing quite the friction here

1086
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:49,879
Speaker 3: between the teams, like and coaches that just want their

1087
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 3: they want their data from this new system in play,

1088
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 3: but it's like it's not working and these courts are

1089
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 3: having an effect on it.

1090
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,439
Speaker 4: So they just switched cameras and the cameras are worse. Yeah,

1091
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 4: the ideas like these, well, the cameras are better, but

1092
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 4: they're worse so far.

1093
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 3: It's yeah, they're not working in terms of inputting the data.

1094
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 3: These the ideas like this hawkeye stuff, from what I

1095
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 3: can tell, is more like what tennis uses, you know,

1096
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 3: to see obviously if the ball is in and out,

1097
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,320
Speaker 3: and a couple of other sports that they've tried to implement.

1098
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 3: But they're batching it here, and so teams are now

1099
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 3: getting pissed and coaches are getting pissed at the at

1100
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 3: the data nerds, like this doesn't make any sense, it

1101
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,319
Speaker 3: doesn't work, and the NBA is sort of refusing to

1102
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 3: take responsibility for these issues. Yeah, it's a really weird

1103
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,280
Speaker 3: story that I've been sort of following here since Ben's

1104
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 3: reporting on it. But I love that the courts, those

1105
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,439
Speaker 3: crazy courts, that the things all messed up, and there's

1106
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:40,839
Speaker 3: like more than ten guys out there.

1107
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,760
Speaker 4: We've never seen anything like this. Even cameras are confused.

1108
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:48,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we'll keep our eye on this Hawkeye optical

1109
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 3: tracking system drama. If you want to call it that,

1110
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 3: it's call it there. Any other thoughts. I thought you

1111
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:59,040
