I love it. 56 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 2: Busy night last night in the NBA. A lot of 57 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 2: fun stuff to talk about. So we're gonna play a 58 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: little bit of what you Got, what you Get? All right? 59 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,399 Speaker 2: This is usually where I freestyle over the hot beat, 60 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: So take it away, what you got? I got nothing, Barge. Luckily, though, 61 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 2: we did have something in the NBA last night. Kevin 62 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 2: Durant returned and finally made his home debut in a 63 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 2: nice win over the Timberwolves for the Phoenix Suns. The 64 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: Sacramento Kings smoked the Rockets one twenty to eighty. They 65 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: lit the beam and clinched a playoff spot for the 66 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: first time since two thousand and six, and both Joel 67 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: Embiid and James Harden returned to the lineup as the 68 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 2: Sixer beat the Mavericks in Philadelphia. So, guys, what was 69 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: last night's best win? The Suns, the Kings or the Sixers? 70 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 3: What you got, Jerome, I mean, only one of these 71 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: wins was seventeen years in the makings. So I think 72 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: it's gotta be the Kings. I mean, huge for the 73 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 3: Sons and the Sixers, if anything, for them to just 74 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 3: round out their rosters and look at it looked like 75 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: full just going into the playoffs. But no, it's it's 76 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 3: all about the Kings. I feel like we're gonna be 77 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 3: talking about that a lot during this We already had 78 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 3: a short drop this morning, A shout out Skeets for 79 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 3: having that on deck for us. But no, I mean 80 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 3: we saw it. You know, iPhone didn't exist, Facebook was 81 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 3: in its infancy. Daniel Powder, you know, had a bad day. 82 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: What was like top of the charts, you know, So 83 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 3: Brad Miller shoutow, Brad Miller, Miller, big shadow, Brad Miller. 84 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: There's really no other option in my opinion, Like, everything 85 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 3: looks good on the horizon for the other two, but 86 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: it's all about the Kings. Baby, Yeah, what'd you think? 87 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: Asha pretty cool seeing the Kings actually clinched their playoff berth. 88 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, the last time they did it, I was in 89 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 5: the sixth grade. 90 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: I was gonna ask what everybody was doing back in 91 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: two thousand and six. I was drawing blood at a 92 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: blood bank. Man. Sixth grade. 93 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 5: Sixth grade, man, I was eleven years old last time 94 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 5: they were in the playoffs. So yeah, to me, it's 95 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 5: the Kings too. That's definitely the win, the big win. 96 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 5: The Suns them getting to win. It didn't really move 97 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 5: anything the Sixers. They kind of just moved up an 98 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 5: extra game on the calves. But for the Kings to 99 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 5: be back in the playoffs again for the first time 100 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 5: in forever. Like I said, I was eleven, it's a 101 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 5: big deal. It's a big deal. 102 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 2: So like that, Beam, what were you into when you 103 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: were eleven? 104 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 5: When I was eleven, the same stuff I'm into now, basketball, 105 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 5: Dragon Ball, and Star Wars. I haven't changed much at all. 106 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: Neither of live to be quite honest, I don't draw 107 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: blood anymore, but I do still like Needles. What about you, Jeroma? 108 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: Were you doing back in six. 109 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 3: I was in university hanging out super late at Tim 110 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 3: Horden's with all of my classmates and friends. I do 111 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 3: remember one time, like middle of the night, two in 112 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 3: the morning, just a long day and bad day came 113 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 3: on and we just sat there listening, you know, contemplating life, 114 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 3: thinking it. You know, the Kings are so consistent. We'll 115 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 3: just keep on doing this for the next seventeen years. 116 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 3: But here we are. We actually made it around. 117 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a pretty special moment last night in Houston. 118 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: Obviously the clinch didn't go well in Sacramento, but they 119 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: looked at the schedules, how they had the rockets coming 120 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: up and knew they were gonna get it done. There 121 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 2: was a massive light the beam chant in Houston, which 122 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 2: was pretty cool. Also, Keegan Murray hit three three pointers 123 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 2: last night to pass Donovan Mitchell for the most three 124 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: pointers ever in a rookie season. He's at one eighty 125 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,119 Speaker 2: eight now still has time to add to that, could 126 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: possibly get to two hundred, I suppose. But man, what 127 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: a story for the Kings to actually be able to 128 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: clinch this playoff birth I remember back when Dearon Fox 129 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: was entering the draft. I had to do this thing 130 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 2: for NBA TV where I rode on the bus and 131 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: just like walked down the aisle, sitting down and talking 132 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: to all of the draft prospects. First of all, Darren 133 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 2: Fox was just taking pictures of his watch the entire time, 134 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: like he'd just gotten a sweet new Tisa watch or 135 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 2: something because he was gonna get drafted. Just had like 136 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 2: a thousand pictures. I thought that was cool. We also 137 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: had him on Summer League a little bit later that year, 138 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 2: and the guy just had so much charisma and you 139 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 2: could tell he was going to be a leader for 140 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: this Kings team. It didn't happen for them for the 141 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: first few seasons of his career. There were definitely some 142 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: dark moments where it kind of seemed like Fox had 143 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: lost the light in his eyes compared to how he 144 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: was when he came back into the league. But to 145 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: see them succeed after the SA Bonus trade last year, 146 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 2: very very cool for the Kings. Very cool to see 147 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: Brad Miller getting a lot of love. There's a great 148 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: piece on The Athletic Today from Anthony Slater. He can 149 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: subscribe at the Athletic dot Com slash no dunks for 150 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 2: only a dollar a month. You know, I'm loving the 151 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: brad assance here in Zach er Medo because the guy 152 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: was an all star way back when. So yeah, I 153 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: got to talk to him now. But we'll see what 154 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 2: the Kings do in the playoffs. Other big news in 155 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: these games, of course, was Kevin Durant returning to the 156 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: Suns for the first time in about three weeks after 157 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: suffering that injury to his ankle during pregame warmups. One 158 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 2: of the weirdest things We've talked so many times since 159 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: the Kevin Durant trade, since his injury, how every time 160 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: this guy comes back, it looks like he's never missed 161 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: any time. No rust ever keeping Durant, and we completely 162 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: jinxed him. He went five for eighteen from the field, 163 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 2: finished with sixteen points. 164 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 3: He was rusty, he was a little just what just 165 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,839 Speaker 3: wasn't until just over five minutes left in the second Yeah, 166 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 3: that he actually hit his first bucket. But I just 167 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 3: remember watching through just like, oh, it's all these like 168 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 3: bunnies for Kevin Durant mid range, like this is just 169 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 3: bound to happen. But then he got to the free 170 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 3: throw line to miss one at a two, and that's 171 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 3: when I'm just like, you know, we're in a situation 172 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 3: now where it's just like, oh, Katie's really got to 173 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 3: get back into it. I guess sometimes you actually do 174 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 3: need to shake off the rest. 175 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and sometimes you need to turn on the Daniel 176 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: powder because you just had a bad day from the field. 177 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 2: Sometimes that happens. A lot of credit I do think 178 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: goes to Jaden McDaniels, a good player to be guarding 179 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant because they are shaped very similar, very quick, 180 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: very long. Obviously, but I did think Katie was still 181 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: getting to his spots. He was just missing. They had 182 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 2: that little Wired segment with him and Monny Williams where 183 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: Moni comes over, He's like, greatness doesn't shake his head, 184 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 2: they're just missing shots, man, And that's exactly what it was. 185 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 2: Once he is back to getting his rhythm, he'll be 186 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 2: doing all right. And the important thing I would say 187 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 2: for the Suns is that they won with Kevin Durant 188 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 2: not playing very well, because don't forget, they still got 189 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: an incredible team around this guy. Chris Paul I thought 190 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter was awesome. The way he was 191 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: orchestrating a good shot every single time down for Phoenix. 192 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: He finished with eight points in the quarter had two assists. 193 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 2: Devin Booker only had five points, but it felt like 194 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 2: he was scoring a lot more. They just played with 195 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: more execution on the offensive end. Their defense was solid 196 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 2: as well. And for Minnesota, they've had a couple of 197 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 2: nice wins here. Apparently there's an intestinal flu kind of 198 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: like ripping through their entire team, so I don't blame 199 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 2: them for being a little fatigued down the stretch. 200 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the flu definitely got to him on that. 201 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 5: But like you said, though, it's it's really good for 202 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 5: the Suns to have like their team be good when 203 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 5: Kevin Durant is coming back, because whenever Kevin Durant is 204 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 5: Kevin Durant again, they're gonna be scary in the West, 205 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 5: and I think nobody wants to see him. And his 206 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 5: win is really good, so they could keep the four seed. 207 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 5: Don't fall down or actually they're to the fifty right 208 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 5: so right behind the Clippers, but they're right there under 209 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 5: them and they'll be fun. 210 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. The win actually, well, the Clippers ended up winning 211 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 2: last night too. They had a nice win. But Phoenix 212 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: is in the fourth seed right now, they're a half 213 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: game up, and that's gonna be I mean, they're so 214 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: close right now, Phoenix in LA the Clippers, they're gonna 215 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: be probably switching back and forth, and like you're saying, 216 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 2: Kevin Duran ain't gonna shoot five for eighteen. No, So 217 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 2: that's a problem for the rest of the league. As 218 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: for the Sixers, I thought that was a pretty solid win. 219 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 2: Joel Embiid back in the lineup, James Harden back in 220 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,359 Speaker 2: the lineup. Embiid went for twenty five points, nine rebounds. 221 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 2: Harden had fifteen and twelve assists, just making sure they 222 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:30,359 Speaker 2: got great shots. I didn't think Embiid was dominant offensively. 223 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: He played a good game, had a couple of big 224 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 2: baskets in the fourth quarter, but I thought he was 225 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: truly showing his impact defensively. Had that monster block on 226 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 2: Luka Doncic late, basically a defensive dagger. He was guarding 227 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: Reggie Bullock for a big part of the fourth quarter 228 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: and in the second half, just basically standing in the 229 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 2: middle of the lane daring the Mavericks to take open 230 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 2: threes and they could not hit him. Sixers did a 231 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 2: good job of running them off the line and making 232 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 2: the MAVs think about it. But the MAVs really went cold. 233 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 2: Three of twelve from three in the fourth quarter for Dallas, 234 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: which just ain't gonna cut it. But the play of 235 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 2: the game to me was two minutes left in the game. 236 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 2: James Harden almost fumbles the ball trying to grift a foul, 237 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 2: so it looks like he has an open jumper, could 238 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 2: have easily taken it, but he doesn't. He passes it 239 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 2: to him Bead, and Bead has the ball in the 240 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 2: at the elbow the high post he's thinking about attacking. 241 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 2: The shot isn't necessarily there, so he moves it. It 242 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 2: passes two more times, the ball ends up with Tobias 243 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 2: Harris on the post. Luca too small on him, an 244 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: easy floater for Tobias Harris to give him the bucket. 245 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: And that to me was just like the Sixers giving 246 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: up so many good shots, so many shots you would 247 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: be okay with with stars taking, whether it be Harden 248 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 2: or Embiid, but instead they just worked the ball, got 249 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: the best shot. They were playing for each other out there. 250 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: That was a grinded out kind of win for Philly. 251 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 2: I was super impressed. 252 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, disappointing for the mass for sure. And you know, 253 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 5: I was watching the game. I think in the final 254 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 5: four minutes of the game there was a couple of 255 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 5: bad whistles and not necessarily bad whistles, but whistles that 256 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 5: didn't go their way. They had the offensive for k 257 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 5: kleeber Bullock fouled and then Tim Hardway Junior had a 258 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 5: loose ball foul on a box out and that just 259 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 5: kind of like killed all of the momentum that they 260 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 5: had because I think right before that thing is when 261 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: Luca came down and hit the three, and it just 262 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 5: it just killed it. The whole game was over and 263 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 5: the maps are really sliding right now. They look awful, 264 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 5: and they're sitting outside to play in tournament. I don't know, 265 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 5: I don't know what's gonna happen with them, man, they 266 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 5: just what can you say about the MAVs. 267 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: Well, the weird thing to me, I mean, a tough 268 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: loss for the MAVs. They played really well through three 269 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 2: quarters and then fell apart in the fourth quarter. I 270 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: think it's the thirteenth time this year they've blown a 271 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: lead of tiny or more points. I actually thought they 272 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 2: played pretty hard. Yeah, all things considered, I thought they 273 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: did some nice stuff in the third quarter. They went 274 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: zone completely took Philly out of the game. Embiid was 275 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 2: out of rhythm. Luka Doncic was smiling quite a bit 276 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 2: in this game, exactly after he had said that he 277 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 2: hasn't been playing with the kind of joy that he has. 278 00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 2: But the fourth quarter was bad. Kyrie irving. His last 279 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: basket was with eight minutes left in the fourth quarter. 280 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 2: His last shot attempt was with six and a half 281 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: minutes left. It was the only time he took a 282 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: shot with Luca on the court in the fourth quarter. 283 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 2: Philadelphia was doing a great job of forcing the ball 284 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: out of Kyrie's hands, out of Luca's hands, trying to 285 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: make any of those Mavericks role players beat him, which 286 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 2: they could not. But also, it doesn't feel like Luca 287 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: and Kyrie are interacting with each other enough on the court. 288 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: You're never seeing Luca set a screen for Kyrie. You're 289 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: rarely seeing Kyrie set a screen for Luca. There's a 290 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 2: lot of possession where Kyrie's just kind of hanging out 291 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: in the corner waiting for a kickout pass. I don't know. 292 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: It does not look perfect right now. And then you 293 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 2: see the postgame comments from Kyrie Irving. He says, it's 294 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: kind of a cluster right now. Fighting for the play 295 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: in is not what I expected. They're nine to fourteen 296 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 2: since the trade for him, I was probably the biggest 297 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 2: backer of this trade of all of us here on 298 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: the show. There was certainly a risk, but I thought 299 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 2: it was like a further down the road risk right 300 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 2: the way I was anticipating Kyrie and Luca getting worse 301 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: being worse. Obviously the defense is a problem, but uh yeah, 302 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 2: bad stuff for Dallas right now. 303 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, the chemistry is not there. And like you described 304 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 3: that final play or that key play with the Sixers 305 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: that ended into the Pius Harris short like mini hook 306 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: at the end there, like you were seeing the exact 307 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 3: opposite like you guys are describing on the other end 308 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 3: with the MAVs, where it just seemed like it just 309 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 3: lived or died on whether Luca would hit the big shot, 310 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 3: which he did one of the times. But then you know, 311 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 3: you see the next time he gets that, like Joe 312 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: el embiid gets that big block, and it's just you know, 313 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 3: two teams with championship aspirations, one looks way better he 314 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 3: quit for playing in the clutch than the other you. 315 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 2: Guys killed it. I mean, that was an incredible first question, 316 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: straight up sicko mode. Moving on, we saw a fall 317 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: career highs last night. Drew Holliday became the fourteenth player 318 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 2: this season to score fifty or more points, putting up 319 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 2: a career high fifty one in a blowout win against 320 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: the Pace, one notch down on the scoring explosion chart. 321 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 2: Taylor Horton Tucker became the fifty fifth player to score 322 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: forty or more this season. He put up a career 323 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 2: high forty one in the Jazz win over the Spurs. Esh, 324 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: what was more surprising Drew's fifty one or thht's forty one? 325 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 5: What you got more surprising? I think it's tc ye Drew. 326 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 5: He was giving everybody buckets last night, like all over 327 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 5: the four post ups, mid range, whatever. But we see 328 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 5: him do stuff like this on occasion, like this happens 329 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 5: every once in a while. We know he's pretty we 330 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 5: know he's pretty consistent. Tha is t though. I mean 331 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 5: he only averages ten points a game for his career, 332 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 5: really right. 333 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: Under the top. 334 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 5: Actually, yeah, So he goes out there drops forty one 335 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 5: last night. He did it last year almost to the day, 336 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 5: like a week week away from there, dropped forty against 337 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 5: the Warriors. So he does it every once in a while, 338 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 5: might drop a forty piece, you know, close to forty, 339 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 5: But yeah, that's the most surprising for sure. 340 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the time to do it. End of 341 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 2: the season, you are always going to see the usual 342 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 2: player put up a huge stat line. Who can forget 343 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: ben Uzo with a triple double the very last game 344 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 2: for the Toronto Raptors. But yeah, THHD he had six 345 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: threes last night, which I guess was the key to 346 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 2: getting to forty points. Not necessarily a three point shooter, 347 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 2: but when he's hitting and when he's finishing the way 348 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 2: he was inside, I guess that's how you get up 349 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: to forty one. And like you're saying, forty in a 350 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: game last year for the Lakers around the same time. 351 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 2: This is when you get weird numbers in the NBA 352 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: right at the end of the season. But man, some 353 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: of the finishes he had. He had like a righty 354 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 2: on the left side where he kind of turned back 355 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 2: his body, which I thought was nice to see that 356 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: from THHT a lot, But even more impressive I thought 357 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 2: was he was finishing with his left hand. Yeah, that's 358 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: one of the main concerns I remember Lakers fans having 359 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 2: with thhds. He never used his left hand. It was 360 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 2: good to see last night, though, what'd you think Jerome 361 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 2: Drew's fifty one thht forty one. 362 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Drew's fifty one because, like like 363 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 3: Esh said, for sure, it's not something that is foreign 364 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 3: to Drew to do. But it's just when you look 365 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: at the game itself, you would think, if Drew Holliy 366 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 3: is gonna have a fifty point game, that is probably 367 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 3: gonna be really quiet for the rest of the team. 368 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: But no, Janni Santa to Compo has a thirty eight 369 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 3: point triple double, Brook Lopez still goes for twenty one points, 370 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 3: and then you mention how teach he does it on 371 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 3: six threes, Drew Hallidy does it on only three. Yeah, 372 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 3: and so if anything like it felt like the quietest 373 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 3: fifty one point game I've seen. If you watch the 374 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 3: uh like the NBA highlight recap for the game last night, 375 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 3: you're gonna see Jannis get a number of poster dunks 376 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 3: in big plays. You're gonna see Grayson Allen with one 377 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 3: of the Dunk of the Year candidates potentially, and then 378 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 3: from an editor's perspective, knowing, I'd like, if I had 379 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 3: to put this together, this package, it's just so funny. 380 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 3: You need to mention that a player on your team 381 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 3: got fifty one points, so you have to fit in, 382 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 3: you know, a couple of hook shots, a couple of floaters, 383 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 3: just very quiet things, and then at some point just 384 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 3: point out, oh yeah, and Drew Holiday got fifty one points, 385 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 3: a career high, and so on that end. No, it's 386 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 3: not surprising for Drew to get it, but it feels 387 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: like if you list, if you were told that Drew 388 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 3: Holly was gonna get a fifty point everything else feels 389 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 3: so surprising that happens around it. It's almost like a 390 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 3: microcosm of the Bucks the season that they could quietly 391 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 3: run up these numbers, be the have the best record 392 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,239 Speaker 3: in the league, and uh, we don't really talk about it. 393 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're absolutely right. Jannis had thirty eight points, seventeen rebounds, 394 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 2: and twelve assists and didn't have the best game on 395 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 2: his team. That's that's crazy, man, watch you. 396 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 3: Had fifty one and eight assists, it's not even like 397 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 3: he was just gunning. 398 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 5: He's had fifty one eight and eight, right, eight and eight, 399 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 5: so he almost had a triple double. Two a fifty 400 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 5: one point triple double, very close, just right there with 401 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 5: Jannis having a triple double, and like you said, everything 402 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 5: it was quiet. He was just giving them buckets. So 403 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 5: it is. It is weird like it is. It is 404 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 5: a weird thing. Droom, You're not You're not wrong. 405 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they have two players go for thirty 406 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 2: eight and eight, which I think is probably the first 407 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 2: time in NBA history that that's happening. But watching both 408 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 2: Giannis Andrew Holliday, it looked like they were the two 409 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: strongest men on earth, like youngest might actually be the 410 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 2: strongest man on earth, at least maybe in the NBA. 411 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 2: And obviously the Pacers didn't have anybody who could really 412 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 2: check him. He didn't get a foul call at one point, 413 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 2: so we just completely we're gonna go and we're gonna 414 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: be dalking anime here. 415 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 3: Super cyan mode Is that a thing? 416 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, okay, good. I wasn't actually sure how to 417 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 2: pronounce it. I've read it so many times, so I 418 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: wasn't sure how to be saying sane, but he went 419 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 2: super saying mode and he was just dunking all over everybody, 420 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 2: including Jalen Smith, who took a tough one on the face. 421 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 2: And then you mentioned that Grayson Allen dunk as well, 422 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 2: where he just fell so hard. I wasn't sad, but 423 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 2: nonetheless it was funny watching because Jiannis you expect him 424 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: to be the strongest guy out there, but you mentioned 425 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 2: it Jerome only three threes for Drew Holiday last night. 426 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 2: He took one long two and everything else was in 427 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 2: the lane. It almost kind of felt like the Bucks 428 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: were going at Jordan Warra. I don't know why. Like 429 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 2: former Buck Jordan Warra, they wanted to prove a point, 430 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 2: and it was kind of like Michael Jordany to me, 431 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 2: where it's like, there's not a lot of motivation to 432 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: beat the Pacers this late in the season for the Bucks. 433 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 2: But how about a guy we used to play with, 434 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: Let's take on him to make some bits. 435 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 3: Jordan war was their bj Armstrong. 436 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're exactly right, great call, and uh, it looked 437 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 2: like Michael Jordan versus bj Armstrong out there. The way 438 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 2: that Drew was just like anytime he would touch a 439 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: pacer with his shoulder or with his forearm. They would 440 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 2: go flying. It was like the easiest way to create space. 441 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 2: And then you're just saying dinking and dumping getting his 442 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 2: way to fifty one points. That was an awesome performance 443 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 2: for Milwaukee on the night. They scored one hundred and 444 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 2: forty nine points. They gave up one hundred and thirty six. 445 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 2: But kind of everybody just agreed, we're all playing defense 446 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 2: this game. We played defense every other game. 447 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 3: Say the Bucks the shot like fifty plus percent and 448 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 3: the Bucks like countered with sixty four percent. 449 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 5: It's just ridiculous. 450 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Boks made ten threes last night, 451 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 2: that's hardly anything. They turned the ball over eighteen times 452 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 2: and they still scored one hundred and fifty because they 453 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 2: got the two strongest men on earth moving on. My 454 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 2: worst fears were realized last night as the Lakers used 455 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 2: their loss on Sunday as inspiration for revenge against the Bulls. 456 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 2: Last night, even worse, the Lakers got multiple taunts in 457 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: on Patrick Beverley. Let's take a look. 458 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 5: Price, and that is indeed the case for Reeves. Beverlys 459 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,120 Speaker 5: pumped fakes, he could not get Lebron in the year. 460 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 2: Now, we'll take a long one bebound Vander. That's Lebron 461 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: yelling hell no, hell no, hell no, that Patrick Beverley 462 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 2: as he pumped fakes. A little bit later on the 463 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 2: dagger from Austin, Reeves hits the floater and Reeves hits 464 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 2: Patrick Beverly with the too small taunt after Beverly did 465 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 2: it to Lebron and their last matchup in La so Jerome. 466 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 2: What you got which is the or Patrick Beverly tout 467 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 2: hell no. 468 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 3: It seems like it seems like it should be obvious 469 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 3: that it's the too small retort. But it just that 470 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 3: that was gonna happen. You knew it had to happen, 471 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 3: especially if they get the revenge win. It's the hell no. 472 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: For me. If I was on the court and I 473 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,479 Speaker 3: had the ball in hand and someone just looked at 474 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 3: me and said, shoot, it's fine, I don't need to 475 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 3: do anything about this, it was destroying my confidence at 476 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 3: that point. There's no like to just yell hell no, 477 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 3: hell no on pump fakes. You know that that's actually 478 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 3: that's the verbal too small. Wow, that's the verbal too small. Yeah, 479 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 3: It's just it's just like there's no like you got 480 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 3: no shot, there's nothing going on. It's just it's minimizing 481 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 3: a person at that moment. Yeah, No, for me, it's 482 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 3: the hell no. It's it's almost like again, Lebron plays 483 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 3: chess while everyone plays checkers. He knows they probably expect 484 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 3: him to hit him back with some sort of too small. 485 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 3: But Lebron's way bigger than Patrick Beverly. There's no point 486 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 3: to doing the too small, So he's just gonna could 487 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 3: Pat Beverly and say, you never bothered me to begin. 488 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 2: With, Yeah, Lebron did, I guess? I guess, Papa, I've 489 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 2: already had his too small And he had a little 490 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 2: bit of a comeback and Lebron, like Lebron went to 491 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 2: throw a pass and definitely knocked it out and he 492 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: hit him with the Mtumbo finger. It's hilarious. You knew 493 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 2: the too small was coming though, Even Patrick Beverly said afterward, 494 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, I knew somebody was going to too small. Yeah, 495 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: I'm just glad it was Austin Breeves. It sounded like 496 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: a dad who was proud of his kid or something. 497 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 2: What's you think ash the hell no or the too small? 498 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 5: To be honest with you. I was going to go 499 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 5: with the too small, mostly because of the clip where 500 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 5: he was doing the Shannon Sharp impersonation afterwards, but I 501 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 5: think Jerome you kind of convinced me. Man, the hell 502 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 5: no is that's the one for sure, because if I'm 503 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 5: playing pickup, I know that there's guys at the gym 504 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 5: that I do this to all the time, like literally, 505 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 5: But I think Lebron should have waited till the shot 506 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 5: in the corner on pat oh, yeah, because like to 507 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 5: do it on a pump bake that's ultimate disrespect. Like 508 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 5: he's like, you don't even jumping, Yeah, don't even try, 509 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 5: Like I'm gonna block you. I'm not gonna do anything. 510 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 5: But if he was in the corner and he hits 511 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 5: them with the hell nah and just turns right, hell 512 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 5: Na just turns, then you're. 513 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 2: Like, oh, it's odd. 514 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I'm not sure. 515 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 3: Steph Curry's like, turnaround. 516 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 2: Yes. 517 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 3: When he looks away, it's that it's to look away 518 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 3: because I know it's not going in. Yes, I'm not 519 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: even looking the basket. I'm gonna go for the rebound. 520 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. There were some more great moments in this game 521 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 2: as well. Basically, like Lebron I think he was maybe 522 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: being guarded by Io Desumu or something like that, and 523 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 2: he just happened to be right over by the Bulls bench. 524 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,239 Speaker 2: He's basically like Pet pointing out Patrick Beverer. He's like, 525 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 2: he's in it, You're not. You're sitting on the bench. 526 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 2: He's playing me right now. So I thought that was hilarious. 527 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 2: There was a basketball game here as well. The Lakers 528 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 2: completely smoked the Bulls thirty eight and ten for Anthony Davis. 529 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 2: Lebron went for a mere twenty five points, hitting that 530 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 2: over just barely. But basically, the Lakers starters dominated every 531 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 2: single moment that they were in the game. The bench 532 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 2: would come in, the Bulls would come back, but then 533 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,959 Speaker 2: unfortunately the Lakers would put their starters back in. The 534 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves the too small. He just did it at 535 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 2: the inopportunity time. We saw the peak of the too small. 536 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: But it was cool that he hit him back. There's 537 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 2: a hilarious clip of Lebron talking about it postgame in 538 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: the locker room. We're in just a towel. He says, 539 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 2: they asked him what it meant that Austin Reeves hit 540 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 2: the too small on Patrick Beverly. He says that ar 541 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,959 Speaker 2: always got my back always, even though we loved Kobe 542 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 2: back in the day more than me, I forgive him. 543 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 2: They dug them an old Austin River or Austin Reeves 544 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 2: tweet where he basically says Kobe is better than Lebron. 545 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 2: Lebron obviously is familiar with that. But I think once 546 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 2: you too small on behalf of your teammate. Yeah, it's 547 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 2: all good. 548 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 5: Ultimately, I got your back moment. What a great teammate 549 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 5: Austin Reeves is to make sure that he gets revenge 550 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 5: for Lebron too small because you know Lebron can't handle 551 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 5: himself apparently. 552 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 2: Exactly so you're telling me your hell knowing people at 553 00:26:59,000 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 2: the pickup joke. 554 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm a little disrespectful in that, for sure. 555 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 2: You gotta be a too small guy too. 556 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 5: No, I've never hit anybody with a too small though. 557 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 2: No, never, what about this week? Maybe, Yeah, we're get in, Yeah, 558 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 2: you gotta get it in before it's completely just shark. Yeah. 559 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: In the other East Action, Nicks pulled away late to 560 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 2: beat the heat despite losing Julius Randall to a sprained 561 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 2: ankle in the second quarter, and the Nets beat the 562 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 2: Rockets thanks to thirty one from Cam Johnson twenty seven 563 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: from Mikale Bridges. So let's take a quick look here 564 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: at the Eastern Conference standings. They are changing all the time, 565 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 2: but a win for Philadelphia last night, a win for 566 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,439 Speaker 2: New York last night, a win for Brooklyn last night 567 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 2: means things basically stay the same in the top six 568 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 2: of the Eastern Conference. Three straight losses, though for Miami 569 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 2: right now. If they're gonna make a run at actually 570 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 2: making the playoffs rather than having to go through the 571 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: play in you gotta figure out something pretty soon because 572 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 2: they have been looking pretty poor. Nick's feeling kind of 573 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: bad for these guys. Little snake bit, I think ever 574 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: since they went on that wind streak. Jalen Brnson is 575 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 2: in and out of the lineup. He finally came back 576 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 2: last night, only to lose Randall to an ankle roll 577 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 2: which poorly timed, but twenty four points from Emmanual quickly 578 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 2: off the bench. Hope this guy wins sixth Man of 579 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 2: the Year. He'll probably be my pick at the end 580 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 2: of the season. Also saw that Tom Thibodeaux played five 581 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 2: guys the entire fourth quarter last night. Classic stuff any thoughts. 582 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 5: On these games. Just at the Knicks losing Julius Randall, 583 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 5: that's a big deal. You don't want the Knicks to 584 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 5: Nicks when they go into the playoffs. You want them 585 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 5: to be as healthy as possible and one hundred percent 586 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 5: as possible so they can get everything together. So that's tough. 587 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 5: That's a big blow for them. 588 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Randall's played every game this season. Obviously 589 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: played last night but only got in a handful of 590 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: minutes before he went out, So we will see the 591 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 2: diagnosis today. Hopefully he's able to get back on the 592 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: court as well. Out West, though, the Thunder beat the 593 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: Pistons just barely on Jalen Williams game winning put back, 594 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 2: a near buzzer beater. Think there was point five seconds 595 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 2: left on the clock after you can set out a bus, 596 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: what do'd you think. 597 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 3: It? Honestly, we talked about the Kings earlier. If the 598 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 3: Kings didn't have the season that they had, like the 599 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 3: feel good story of the season would be the Thunder opinion. 600 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 3: And you know, you would think a team that loses 601 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 3: a top pick in Chet Holmgren wouldn't be making any noise. 602 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,239 Speaker 3: But then you got Jay dub here, who's like in 603 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 3: the mix for Rookie of the Year. And beyond having 604 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 3: like such a good season, having like really good moments 605 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 3: like that, I think that's the kind of thing that 606 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 3: you need, like a game winner like this. I don't know, 607 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 3: things feel good in Thunderland. We did that short a 608 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 3: few weeks back, where it's like it must be feel 609 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 3: good to feel good to be a thunder fan. And 610 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 3: you know, it's things like this that's happening this season 611 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 3: that's like showing it time and time again. 612 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, Jalen Williams another great game we obviously had 613 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 2: the game winner, finished with twenty seven points, eight rebounds, 614 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 2: and six assists. He just scores from all over. Takes 615 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 2: all kinds of different shots, a lot of dunks this season, 616 00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 2: a lot of three pointers. I've been trying to come 617 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 2: up with like my comparison for who he reminds me of. 618 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 2: Here's what I've come up with so far. Lou all 619 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 2: Dang with Swag. Like, I think they're kind of similar 620 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: players in that they can guard a lot of positions. 621 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 2: They score from three, they score from the mid range, 622 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 2: they score at the rim. But Jalen Williams, I think 623 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: has a little bit more uh, just a little more 624 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: verb than lu All Dang does. Luell Dang more of a. 625 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 5: Workman like player. I agree with that, all right. 626 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 2: Here's another one I'll throw at you. Best possible version 627 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 2: of James Posey, Like James Posey more of a role guy, 628 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: but you know, h versus defender three point shooter. But 629 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 2: imagine if you had a handle and could go to 630 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 2: the rim like Jalen Williams. Yeah, not selling you as 631 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 2: much on that one up. 632 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 5: No, Actually I might like that one better. I don't 633 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 5: know why, but I think I like that one better. 634 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 2: All right, final possible comparison here Andrew Wiggins if his 635 00:30:53,920 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 2: best skill was savvy instead of athleticism. No to know. 636 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 2: I feel like Andrew Wiggins is a very good big 637 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 2: wing who kind of does it all. He's he's a 638 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 2: good three point shooter, He's obviously a great dunker. He's 639 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 2: kind of cut out the mid range of his game, 640 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 2: but he still got it there. He can score in 641 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 2: the post. I feel very similar about Jalen Williams. Also, 642 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 2: they're both very versatile defenders. They hit the glass. But 643 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 2: Wiggins is a much better athlete than jadab Is whereas 644 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 2: I think Jadab just knows how to play the game 645 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: like a ten year veteran, despite the fact that he's 646 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 2: only a rookie this season. So if savvy is your 647 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 2: calling card like it is for Jalen Williams, I kind 648 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: of think and athleticism is for Wiggins. What if you 649 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 2: just flipped them really makes you think, really makes you okay? 650 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 2: In the comments, obviously Smack was the best one, but 651 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 2: it also the Clippers beat the Grizzlies, no Kawhi, no 652 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 2: Paul George. They snapped Memphis seven game win streak. So 653 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 2: let's take quick look at the Western Conference standings. That 654 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 2: was a bad loss for the Mavericks last night, cause, 655 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 2: coupled with the Oka See win, a full one game 656 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: lead for the Thunder, the tenth seed in the Western Conference. 657 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 2: Westbrook was awesome last night. Thirty six points, ten assists. 658 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: There's an incredible picture of this guy flexing on the court. 659 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 2: I think he got an and one maybe on jaw 660 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 2: and the picture is taken from above. He's flexing in 661 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 2: the middle of the lane and somehow he's looking right 662 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: at the camera even though it's in the ceiling. I 663 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 2: don't know how he did it, but Westbrook five from 664 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 2: three to last night. You're not counting on that every night. 665 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 2: But the way he's pushing the pace, the way he 666 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 2: is in the lane all the time, has really really 667 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: worked out for the Clippers. I didn't expect that to 668 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 2: be the case. So I'll take an L on that 669 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: one because Westbrook definitely won them this game, and with 670 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 2: Paul George down with injury, with Kawhi doing his load management, 671 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 2: this is a nice win for the Clippers because we 672 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 2: mentioned earlier they are still in a race for potentially 673 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 2: getting home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs. 674 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 2: We shall see, Jero. I was wanting to get your take. 675 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw Dylan Brooks's pregame outfit 676 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 2: last night. Black bucket hat, white dresser, blackmailman, shorts at 677 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 2: one's point, shoes. 678 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,479 Speaker 3: Right at this point, with all the different Dylan Brooks looks, 679 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 3: it's almost just like a silhouette that, like, I'm not 680 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 3: able to decipher anymore. He is just trying a new 681 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 3: thing each time. I don't know any of them particularly hit, 682 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 3: but I guess I should rep as the Canadian on 683 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 3: the podcast looks great, honestly, killing the game, like, do 684 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 3: your thig, Dylan, Yeah, I think the other thing. I 685 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 3: also want to mention just it's so funny. We talked 686 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: about the Drew Holiday game earlier. It's like jew Holiday 687 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 3: fifty one points on three three pointers, Russell Westbrook thirty 688 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 3: one points on five three pointers. Like they took each 689 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 3: other's stat line. 690 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, they kind of did. And hey, Dylan Brooks thirty 691 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: points last night, twelve to twenty four shooting, you'll take that. 692 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 2: I also saw that my main man, Chuck Anderson at 693 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 2: no pattern on Twitter. He said that Dylan Brooks his 694 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: fit looked like Beavis and butt Head from the waist, 695 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 2: which I thought was awesome. JD. Let's see this playoff 696 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 2: picture real quick. Things are changing every night, so we're 697 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,240 Speaker 2: looking at the matchups here. Play in tournament is staying 698 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 2: the same. In the Eastern Conference right now, would be 699 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 2: the Heat versus the Hawks, and the seven eight matchup 700 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 2: Raptors Bulls. In nine ten. Out West, it would be 701 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 2: the timber Wolves after their loss last night, would be 702 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 2: playing against the Lakers, who moved up a slot. That's 703 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 2: the seven eight matchup. Nine ten would be Pelicans versus Thunder, 704 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 2: and then we've got some four or fives, some three sixes. Ash, 705 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 2: you're looking at the playoff picture. If the playoffs started today, 706 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,879 Speaker 2: which they do not, we still got a week left 707 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: of the regular season. What kind of first round matchups 708 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 2: are you interested in here? 709 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 5: If the playoffs started today, I think the Warriors Kings 710 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 5: series would be pretty Oh yeah, I think it'd be 711 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 5: a test, obviously to see where the Warriors are, see 712 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 5: if they are back to being the Warriors or not, 713 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 5: or if they're just going to be this mediocre Warrior 714 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 5: team that we've seen, and especially starting on the road, 715 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 5: see if they could even take one on the road. 716 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 5: They always do, right, since they've always taken. 717 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 2: One, Yeah, they always have at least. 718 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 5: So that matchup would be pretty good just to see. 719 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 2: I think what you think, Jerome, what you're looking at here, 720 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 2: it is Warriors Kings. 721 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 3: Also for me, I kind of wish that the rankings 722 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 3: reverse that, like the Warriors were in the three spot, 723 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 3: because it would almost feel like the Sacramento Kings were 724 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 3: the twenty twenty three we believe Warriors going against the 725 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 3: twenty twenty three Golden State Warriors. Just there's just like 726 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 3: an element there that like it's such a great story, 727 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 3: and yeah, like it's such an interesting like this juncture 728 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 3: if the playoffs are today or even in a couple 729 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 3: of weeks, like where both of these teams are at, 730 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 3: Like where the Golden State Warriors are. They're defending champions, 731 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 3: but like do they have enough in the tank? Will 732 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 3: they be healthy enough to carry through? It seems like 733 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 3: they should be able to handle the Kings, but you 734 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 3: never know at this point. And so yeah, that's really 735 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 3: the one, Like you want to follow the Kings as 736 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: far as they go, and the fact that they're going 737 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 3: against the defending champs is going to be such an 738 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 3: interesting test in the first round. 739 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 2: Gonna be a spicy time. Can't wait to see. But 740 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: I mean we got five or six games left for 741 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 2: every team. That's can all completely change. Yes, we shall see. 742 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 2: We talked games, we'll talk news after the break. Stick 743 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 2: around back with no dunks during the break as she 744 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 2: came clean. Yeah you told me, Yes, indeed I have 745 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 2: too small to someone once upon a time, but in 746 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 2: a different way. 747 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, in a whole different way, because I always hit 748 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 5: people with the oh you're too small, Tom and Jerry, 749 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 5: Tom and Jerry, or even if you're too big, Tom 750 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 5: and Jerry, that's the mismatch, and that's what we're working with. 751 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: I'm not going to work that into my lexicon as well, 752 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 2: cause Stacy King on the Balls broadcast, he's always calling 753 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 2: out mouse in the house. Yeah, that's a classic Tom 754 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 2: and Jerry takes it to the next level. Yeah, what 755 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: about you, Jerome? You e were too small somebody. 756 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: It's very rare that I am bigger than someone on 757 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 3: the basketball. 758 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 2: I think. 759 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 3: I do remember one time I had to guard someone 760 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 3: just far bigger than me and and they were posting 761 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 3: me up NonStop, and I really had no shot at 762 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 3: doing anything. So the only thing I could do was 763 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 3: really play the mind game, and I just every time 764 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 3: you started backing in, I just started singing Love in 765 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 3: this club. By sure, I'm very uncomfortable with that. It 766 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 3: really threw him off his game and uh, you know, 767 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 3: not not getting no bunnies for them at that point. 768 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 5: Mind games, Jerome, I love it. 769 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 4: Mind games. 770 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,879 Speaker 2: I would start thinking about not basketball. If someone's singing 771 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 2: I want to make love in the club and the 772 00:37:47,920 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 2: post up, well, that's in the updown report. A lot 773 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: of news, some topics that you guys and we will 774 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: say if they're good or bad upper down. According to 775 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 2: ESPN's Adrian Wojanowski, Dwayne Wade, Dirk Novitsky, Pau Gasol, Tony Parker, 776 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:13,919 Speaker 2: Becky Hammond, and Greg Popovich have all been elected into 777 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 2: the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty three, 778 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,080 Speaker 2: with a formal announcement expected to come with the Final 779 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 2: Four in Houston this weekend. Pretty good class, but is 780 00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 2: it the best ever? Up or down? Twenty twenty three 781 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame class is the best ever? What you think? 782 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 5: Esh, I'll god out, m down, I'll go down. 783 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 2: Okay? Why is that? 784 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 5: Okay? I don't know. 785 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 2: That's a good reason. I mean, these are great players, Yes, 786 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 2: these are all great players. Dwayne Wade three titles, Dirk 787 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 2: one title, Pow two titles, Tony Parker four, Pop five, 788 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 2: Becky Hammond defending w NBA Champion coach. But we're not 789 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 2: talking about any of the top five player of all times. 790 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 2: That's really why I like holding you back. 791 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's really why, because I came here wanting to 792 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 5: say uh, but then I got to thinking, I'm like, 793 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 5: I mean, I just feel like when Jordan went in, 794 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 5: That's that's kind of is Michael Jordan, you know, is like. 795 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 3: The Jordan year. I do have it. So two thousand 796 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 3: and nine we have Jordan, David Robinson, Jerry Sloan and 797 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 3: John Stockton as like four of the big names in there. 798 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 5: And you see what I'm. 799 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 3: Saying, that is a good one. I also have the 800 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:30,720 Speaker 3: twenty twenty Kobe Tamika Catchings, Tim Duncan, KG and Rugi 801 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,800 Speaker 3: Tom Johanovic class, which I feel that's stacked. 802 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 5: That's the best one right there. 803 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:37,800 Speaker 3: I think that's the best one in my opinion. 804 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 5: See that's the reason I went down Jerome, have my back. 805 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 5: Thanks man, I got you. 806 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:43,840 Speaker 2: Because you like the twenty twenty class doesn't mean you 807 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 2: can't like the twenty twenty two. 808 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right. 809 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 2: I like three classes as well. To me, a lot 810 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,280 Speaker 2: of my personal favorites and this one, like I've got Dirk, 811 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 2: Wade and Pole probably all in like my top ten 812 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 2: favorite players to ever watch in the NBA. So I 813 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 2: love this class. But if you're talk talking about like 814 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 2: career achievements rankings on the all time list, it probably 815 00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 2: is more so similar to twenty eighteen, which was Jason Kidd, 816 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 2: Steve Nash, Ray Allen and Grant Hill. A lot of 817 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 2: incredible players some MVPs, but you know, like we're saying, 818 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: not a Michael Jordan or a Shack making the list 819 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 2: that kind of thing. But should be a really fun class, uh, 820 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 2: really looking forward to the speeches. Wade should be interesting. 821 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 2: I'm sure pau Gasol will be a tear jerker, and 822 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 2: Dirk probably will be one of the funnier speeches we've 823 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 2: seen in a long time. Yash, who do you think 824 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 2: they let give the final speech of the night.

And yeah, 993 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 3: I think, like just all the easter eggs that you're 994 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 3: gonna have when you're like going to it, like they're opening, 995 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,520 Speaker 3: I think about the playoffs, So it couldn't be better timing, 996 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 3: and so yeah, I'll probably have to check it out 997 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 3: at some point. 998 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we absolutely need a Jerome report. I think said 999 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 2: on the website that reservations and walk ins are available 1000 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:12,439 Speaker 2: as of April third, which is Monday. And you mentioned, yeah, 1001 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 2: there's like cool little NBA Easter eggs all over the place. 1002 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:18,760 Speaker 2: Coolest one I saw looking at the previews and stuff 1003 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 2: was this piece of art that's modeled on the Kawhi 1004 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: Leonard four bounced game winner. It's got the ball kind 1005 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:30,320 Speaker 2: of tracing the path way up into the air, rattling 1006 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 2: around the rim and dropping through. I think that looks 1007 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 2: really cool. And yeah, I was actually kind of surprised 1008 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 2: by the menu. Jerome. I guess Top Chief Canada slash 1009 00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 2: Chopped Canada winner Erica Carbelnick did the menu. There's some 1010 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 2: interesting looking stuff on there, but not a lot of 1011 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 2: NBA puns, you know what. I'm what I'm looking at 1012 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 2: an NBA run restaurant. I'm expecting there to be I don't. 1013 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 3: Know Stepan Marbury. 1014 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:00,560 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly, like something like Ye there was like a 1015 00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:03,800 Speaker 2: Mavericks Margarita or something like that. It was like the 1016 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 2: Magations or something like that. But uh, yeah, I'm struggling 1017 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 2: right now. 1018 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 3: For it's a compo boy exactly. 1019 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 2: They don't have that, yes, yeah, but maybe they will. 1020 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 2: We shall see. I'm looking forward to your report, Jerome. 1021 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 2: Question I had for you, j D. If this is 1022 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,799 Speaker 2: the hard rock cafe for the NBA, I know you're 1023 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:25,960 Speaker 2: a big time hard rock cafe. 1024 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 4: Definitely not a fan. 1025 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 2: Speaking of grudges, Yeah, you absolutely first one in Toronto, 1026 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 2: I get it. That's where they played the first NBA 1027 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 2: game back in the day. I saw there was a 1028 00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 2: lot of memorabilia for that. Where will the next one be? 1029 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 4: Oh that's a good question. The next so the let's 1030 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 4: assume that it's successful, which it will be because Toronto 1031 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:54,240 Speaker 4: is a big basketball town. Now, uh, New York City 1032 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 4: has to be. Yeah, right next to the Garden, that's 1033 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 4: where the next one to go. 1034 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 2: It's a great call. They also had that property like 1035 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,839 Speaker 2: for their NBA store on Fifth Avenue or whatever like that, 1036 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: So yeah. 1037 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,919 Speaker 4: That is fair. Is that closed down? Then the NBA 1038 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 4: star on fifth. 1039 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,839 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm unsure on that. It definitely could be. Nonetheless, 1040 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,280 Speaker 2: we'll definitely go to one of these at some point 1041 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 2: and probably make a short out of it. I want 1042 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 2: to ask you one more thing about Toronto, Jerome. I 1043 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,399 Speaker 2: know you went to Will Lou and Alex Wong's live 1044 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 2: show with Bobby Webster yesterday. How was it? 1045 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,479 Speaker 3: It was really good? Yeah, shout out to the guys 1046 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 3: the Raptors Show, friends of the show. They put on 1047 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 3: an awesome live show, had Raptors GM Bobby Webster on 1048 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 3: with them and surprisingly candid for a GM like we 1049 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:45,160 Speaker 3: weren't given anything that was like leak worthy or anything 1050 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 3: that way, but they talked a lot about like draft process, 1051 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:49,799 Speaker 3: a little bit about the Kauhi trade, a little bit 1052 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 3: about all their thought process of Vision six to nine, 1053 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 3: things like that. My favorite takeaway was during the Raptor's bubble, 1054 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 3: Bobby Webster became the Fecto Espresso person. He brought his 1055 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 3: own machine. He made coffee for everyone, and so the 1056 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 3: guys asked him, who are like the coffee freaks of 1057 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 3: the Raptors And he had Marcus sol up there a 1058 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:16,319 Speaker 3: big like double espresso bitter black coffee guy. Uh, But 1059 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 3: the one that I really loved and took away was 1060 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 3: Tyler hansbro Psycho t two espresso shots pre game. Every 1061 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 3: game explains a time. 1062 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that explains why I never blinked. Yeah, he never 1063 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:31,919 Speaker 2: closed his eyes for forty eight minutes. 1064 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 3: Incapable of closing eyes? 1065 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 2: Yes, so what I mean? I don't know. I guess 1066 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:38,320 Speaker 2: once he got into the NBA he was kind of 1067 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 2: a grown man. Yeah, he was dominant college player. He 1068 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:44,680 Speaker 2: must have been doing like four or five shots before 1069 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 2: of those ones going completely wild. Great report. Love those guys. 1070 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:52,239 Speaker 2: Got one last little piece of news to talk about here. 1071 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 2: Stephen no Over at the Sporting News put out a 1072 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 2: great piece this week titled the NBA is all in 1073 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 2: on Anime.

It is 1104 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 3: just like one of the most beautiful animes you can 1105 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 3: come across.

We're going to start here. This is 1111 00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 3: arguably the anime of no dunks. It's called Attack on Titan. 1112 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:18,839 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 1113 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:20,359 Speaker 3: We have a clip. We have a clip that we're 1114 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 3: gonna pull up right now, resurface. 1115 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 2: We absolutely have a clip. 1116 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 5: Shot stap. 1117 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 2: The Titan. 1118 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 3: That is Trey as a colossal Titan. Although he had 1119 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 3: re knew he was a class star. He thought he 1120 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,800 Speaker 3: was the big the big meat man. The whole time. 1121 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 3: You thought you were meat man, but you were actually 1122 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,360 Speaker 3: colossal Titan. I pulled up from Wikipedia because I just 1123 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 3: realized when I started thinking about animes, it's actually really 1124 00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,439 Speaker 3: hard to come up with a synopsis, like a one 1125 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 3: line or for them. But this is what Attack of 1126 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:25,280 Speaker 3: Titan is. It is set in a world where humanity 1127 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,720 Speaker 3: is forced to live in cities surrounded by three enormous 1128 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:31,840 Speaker 3: walls that protect them from gigantic men eating humanoids referred 1129 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: to as Titans or Trey Kirby's. The story follows Aaron Yeager, 1130 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 3: who has to exterminate all the Titans after they bring 1131 00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 3: about destruction of his hometown. So this is like one 1132 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 3: of the I would don't know if we'll call it 1133 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 3: more recent picks, but it is an incredible show. The drama, action, art, 1134 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,479 Speaker 3: everything about it is so so good. Uniclode just dropped off, 1135 00:56:55,920 --> 00:57:02,160 Speaker 3: dropped a big attack on Titan, then collaboration set movies 1136 00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 3: coming out soon.

I guess you can 1143 00:57:20,400 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 3: call it that, but yeah, like gory your daughters.

I get what you mean 1153 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 3: by it. 1154 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 4: It's it's there's the least amount of what is going 1155 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 4: on here, you know what I mean? 1156 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 3: Actually actually is going to be our most grounded of him. 1157 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,520 Speaker 3: Number four. It's kind of like you can't talk about 1158 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 3: a basketball anime without mentioning slam dunk. So there's slam 1159 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 3: Dunk there. I'm to give myself that I have not 1160 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 3: actually seen slam dunk, but I have obviously been very 1161 00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 3: aware of its lore. We'll hold on this shot right here, 1162 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:19,520 Speaker 3: just because one thing I love about this if you 1163 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 3: look at all the art, like look at their shoes 1164 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 3: that they have, they actually give them all like real 1165 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 3: Nike shoes. Jordan's all that. It is really like such 1166 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 3: a great capture of its time. Rated one of their 1167 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 3: best animes in history. You really can't do a NBA 1168 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:41,439 Speaker 3: Siko list without mentioning the basketball anime that's slam Dunk 1169 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 3: right there. 1170 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 2: It's all about a basketball team. 1171 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 3: It's all about a basketball team. The one liner that 1172 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:51,640 Speaker 3: I haven't had it tells the story of a basketball 1173 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 3: team from Shohuku High School in the show in an 1174 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 3: area of Japan. That is the one liner for slam Dunk. 1175 00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 5: I think I've seen like a clip of this before 1176 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 5: and it was crazy. Yeah, you know when you anime eyes, 1177 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 5: I'm just going to make up a verb there an 1178 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 5: animi basketball. This is exactly what you would think it 1179 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 5: would look like, honestly, like it's just so. But it 1180 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 5: was interesting. I saw, like, I don't know, a couple 1181 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 5: of minutes of it. 1182 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 2: Uh, kind of surprising. It doesn't come up at all 1183 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 2: in Steven's peace over what the Sporting News Really. 1184 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 3: It's an older one, so I think like in some ways, uh, 1185 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 3: it kind of falls a little bit under the radar. Also, 1186 00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 3: like when you think about anime, you're thinking about like 1187 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 3: maybe more fantastical situations like you know we have with 1188 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:40,560 Speaker 3: Attack on Titan you name on here, So slam dunk 1189 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 3: is almost it is a slam dunk. It is so 1190 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 3: obvious to be a basketball anime put it on, so 1191 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:51,160 Speaker 3: it has to be on there. Number three. I love 1192 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 3: this one so much. It is One punch Man, One 1193 00:59:54,600 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 3: punch Man. What Jad mentioned ridiculous premises. One punch Man 1194 01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 3: tells the story of Saitama, a superhero who can because 1195 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 3: he can defeat any opponent with a single punch, grows 1196 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 3: bored from a lack of a challenge. So honestly, if 1197 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 3: I was recommending something that is light, short to watch, 1198 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 3: easy to consume, and very silly, I think One punch 1199 01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:27,120 Speaker 3: Man is gonna be up there as one of my options. 1200 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,440 Speaker 3: It is like, it's the kind of thing that also 1201 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:35,880 Speaker 3: kind of works as like anyone who's into Marvel superhero movies, 1202 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 3: like DC anything like that, because it does tackle the 1203 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:43,760 Speaker 3: notion of it's essentially Saitama is like Superman, who Superman 1204 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 3: was super bored because nobody can defeat Superman except Saitama 1205 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 3: is like so powerful and you'll see not spoiling too much. 1206 01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 3: He literally does throw one punch at any given villain 1207 01:00:57,400 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 3: or adversary and takes them out completely. And so for 1208 01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 3: someone that powerful, how do you deal with it? It 1209 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,960 Speaker 3: is also its own kind of like self referential on 1210 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:10,480 Speaker 3: the like tropes of anime where you know characters are 1211 01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 3: constantly powering up. He is well the most powerful and unstoppable. 1212 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:18,160 Speaker 3: So One punch Man fantastic is a funny one, Like 1213 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:19,920 Speaker 3: it's funny we're talking. It's funny. 1214 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 2: Nice. 1215 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. Esh, have you seen One punch Man? You might have. 1216 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 3: You must have heard of it, though I've heard of it. 1217 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 5: I've seen like an episode maybe. 1218 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:27,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1219 01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 5: All all of my family and friends they love One 1220 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:31,200 Speaker 5: punch Man. They love all these animes that you said 1221 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 5: so far as well. Yeah, all of them actually so, 1222 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:36,439 Speaker 5: but I have not dove in yet. 1223 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, big hit in our house. One punch Man, for sure. 1224 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 2: There you go. 1225 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, number two, number two. It may be 1226 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 3: considered the goat of animes. It is dragon Ball. 1227 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 5: Is the guy. 1228 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 3: It is this one. It's it's such a long running 1229 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 3: series that like it is actually very difficult to like 1230 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 3: give you the one liner, but shout out again Wikipedia. 1231 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,160 Speaker 3: The series follows the adventures of protagonist's son Goku, from 1232 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,000 Speaker 3: his childhood through adulthood as he trains in martial arts. 1233 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:10,200 Speaker 3: He spends his childhood far from civilization until he meets 1234 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:13,480 Speaker 3: a teen girl named Bolma, who encourages him to join 1235 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 3: her quest in exploring the world in search of seven 1236 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 3: orbs known as the Dragon Balls, which summon a wish 1237 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 3: granting dragon when gathered. Along his journey, Goku makes several 1238 01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 3: other friends, becomes a family man that's questionable. Piccolo's real 1239 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:32,680 Speaker 3: father discovers his alien heritage and battles a wide variety 1240 01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 3: of villains, many of whom also seek the dragon Balls. Now, 1241 01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 3: this is arguably like the Jordan of animes. When it 1242 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 3: comes to anyone mentioning anime, I think you can't mention 1243 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 3: anime without mentioning this one. Early days of the internet 1244 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 3: big like anime music videos, I personally loved the jidas 1245 01:02:55,920 --> 01:03:00,400 Speaker 3: at am to the tune of Blank Two's Animal song. 1246 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 3: It's an incredible banger. May have inspired me to become 1247 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 3: the editor and producer that I today, But it is Yeah, no, 1248 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,439 Speaker 3: like Ash, I'm gonna let I'm gonna toss the rock 1249 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 3: to you taught to me a little bit about dragon Ball. 1250 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,360 Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I think you said like it's 1251 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 5: it's the Jordan of uh Okay. I would even compare 1252 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:22,080 Speaker 5: it to like what Magic and Bird did for the NBA. 1253 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,840 Speaker 5: So what dragon Ball did for anime the game? Yeah, 1254 01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 5: because like I think they tried to port dragon Ball 1255 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 5: over one time and it didn't work. And then too Nummi, 1256 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:32,720 Speaker 5: which is like something that happened on Cartoon Network back 1257 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 5: in the day, brought it back again found the right 1258 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:37,520 Speaker 5: voice actors, and then it took off and then like 1259 01:03:37,600 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 5: anime is now what it is over here? 1260 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 2: You know? 1261 01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:44,280 Speaker 5: So, Uhmison, I guess real quick, Jerome. My question is, 1262 01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 5: if Trey's never watched any like dragon Ball or anything, 1263 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:50,320 Speaker 5: would you start him on the og dragon Ball? Would 1264 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 5: you start him at Z? 1265 01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 3: I think you started at Z. 1266 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1267 01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 3: See, that's the thing that's difficult about getting into dragon 1268 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 3: Ball is there's so much dragon Ball. 1269 01:03:58,440 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 2: Like starting to watch the soap opera. 1270 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, watch fifty seasons. 1271 01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 2: It's like Survivor. I guess. 1272 01:04:06,720 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 4: Because it's the Coronation Street. 1273 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's obviously dragon Ball is huge because 1274 01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:17,080 Speaker 2: it even filtered down to me all through college. One 1275 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 2: of my good friends was Pat Murphy. At one point 1276 01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 2: in time, he had bleach blonde hair that he like 1277 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 2: slicked back, gigantic hair, So all through college we call 1278 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:31,280 Speaker 2: them dragon Ball Murph. Really yeah, that was the closest 1279 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 2: that anime crossover. He went super Saiyan he s yeah, yeah, 1280 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 2: he told it. He called it getting totally ridiculous or 1281 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 2: totally sideways. But I think the same general vibe for 1282 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 2: dragon Ball MURF and dragon Ball Z. 1283 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,040 Speaker 3: And Number one It is one of my personal favorites. 1284 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 3: It is one that seems to be such a hit 1285 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:54,200 Speaker 3: for a lot of NBA players. So you'll see a 1286 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:56,440 Speaker 3: bit of a clause here, but we're gonna go with 1287 01:04:56,560 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 3: Nearrudo Nerudo also in this jump series right there, let 1288 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 3: me pull up my I love these one miners so much. 1289 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 3: These are great.

I was thinking about it this morning. 1314 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,280 Speaker 3: Game six Lebron who lost his head man, that's rock 1315 01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 3: Lee who drops his training weights and becomes like superpowered 1316 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:36,600 Speaker 3: against Gara. I see Esh there smirking at that, and 1317 01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 3: then Esh I'd be like, talked to me about Naruto. 1318 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:42,400 Speaker 5: Okay. So I tried to watch Naruto back in the 1319 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:44,440 Speaker 5: day when it was to know me so I was 1320 01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 5: a child, and I was like, Wow, this is pretty good. 1321 01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 5: I got to like the first season, but then I 1322 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 5: I just had to go back to dragon Ball. Dragon 1323 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:57,920 Speaker 5: Ball I'll probably finish at some point. My sister is 1324 01:06:57,920 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 5: always getting on me because. 1325 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:00,680 Speaker 3: I have you ever got into the tune in exams, 1326 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:02,400 Speaker 3: Like once you get there, everything takes off. 1327 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:04,880 Speaker 5: I don't even remember. Like my cousin is the biggest 1328 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,480 Speaker 5: Ruto fan I think, ever, he's always he's he's the 1329 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 5: guy that always corrects me when I say Rudo and 1330 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 5: he's like, no, it's not.

I feel like, you know, 1333 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 5: obviously they took a lot of inspiration from dragon Ball, 1334 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:20,919 Speaker 5: but uh. 1335 01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:25,920 Speaker 3: And are they the Magic and Bird? Maybe? Are they? 1336 01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 3: Are they Jordan and Isaiah? Like the Blood rivalry? He knows, No, 1337 01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:34,440 Speaker 3: it's it is. It is one of the greats. That 1338 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 3: is our number one. There are again, like I said 1339 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 3: so many, Like I did not mention one. 1340 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:42,880 Speaker 2: Piece the stream team saying one piece, it's got like 1341 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,440 Speaker 2: a million episodes though death. 1342 01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 3: Note a huge one two Unyasha, like there's so many 1343 01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 3: animes Gundam we mentioned at the top there, Uh Hunter 1344 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:59,520 Speaker 3: hunter ex Hunter like just Demon Slayer is that the one? Yeah, 1345 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 3: there's like so many. I think part of like the 1346 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 3: list here was like inspired by Steph knows article just 1347 01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,600 Speaker 3: because there had been so many references we mentioned dragon 1348 01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:14,800 Speaker 3: Ball before Rudy Gobert once. Uh, I'm not here for 1349 01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 3: fat shaming, but I suppose if you compare them to 1350 01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 3: the character imagine Boo, I suppose that's kind of a 1351 01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 3: funny take on it. But no, there are a lot 1352 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:26,839 Speaker 3: of different options here. Esh, I know you took exception 1353 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,840 Speaker 3: to this list. I want to know, is it is 1354 01:08:29,880 --> 01:08:32,679 Speaker 3: it the listing? Are we missing something here? What's going 1355 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 3: on your Your. 1356 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:38,200 Speaker 5: List is ninety It's just the dragon Balls should be 1357 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 5: number one. It was my only quome. That's it. I've 1358 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:40,800 Speaker 5: swept up. 1359 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,840 Speaker 3: I'll give you that. I think. I think the fat 1360 01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 3: are in in terms of NBA Secoast is just that 1361 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:50,559 Speaker 3: Narudo seems to be having more of an in with 1362 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 3: NBA players, and it might just be that it's slightly newer, 1363 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:56,759 Speaker 3: it was still running a little more recently. That allowed 1364 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 3: a lot of the current crop of the generation of 1365 01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:02,800 Speaker 3: NBA players to get into it. But beyond that, No, 1366 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:06,400 Speaker 3: it's it's hard to deny dragon Ball is like one 1367 01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 3: of the best, if not the best, and still I 1368 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:13,080 Speaker 3: mean like dragon Ball super Heroes that just came out recently. 1369 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:17,680 Speaker 3: Incredible movie. Yeah, like, so, uh no, there's a lot 1370 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 3: of things to go into here, Trey, I don't even 1371 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: know where to get you started. I think I think 1372 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:27,719 Speaker 3: Attack on Titan or One punch Man might be good 1373 01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 3: in the sense that they're more digestible. Just because a lot. 1374 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:35,360 Speaker 2: Of hearing the list, those were top of mind for 1375 01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 2: me to sure find one episode each for the flights 1376 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 2: like to you know, to Houston and that kind of stuff, 1377 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 2: like I have a chance to watch it, then I 1378 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:44,920 Speaker 2: want to.

Hopefully not 1403 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:06,960 Speaker 2: because we do have another podcast come a little bit later.

People were hating 1405 01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:11,760 Speaker 2: on us for the pick them payoffs and ever since 1406 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:15,080 Speaker 2: somebody eight arbis they stopped doing it. No, we just 1407 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:17,400 Speaker 2: don't have any good ideas right now, but someday we will. 1408 01:11:17,560 --> 01:11:19,840 Speaker 2: This one is brought to you by bet MGM. The 1409 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:23,720 Speaker 2: results from last night, Skeets and Tass had the Lakers 1410 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:26,000 Speaker 2: to cover a one and a half point spread, and 1411 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 2: they certainly covered. That gave me a loss, so that 1412 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 2: moves Skeets's record to eleven and ten. I'm sure he's 1413 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 2: very excited to be over five hundred right now. Tasks 1414 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 2: is at seven and fourteen, and I am still atop 1415 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 2: the leaderboard at twelve and nine. Here are tonight's picks. 1416 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:46,000 Speaker 2: Only two games on the schedule. This is the spiciest one. 1417 01:11:46,479 --> 01:11:51,479 Speaker 2: The Boston Celtics traveled to Milwaukee to play against the Bucks, 1418 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 2: who just had a huge win last night. Skeets and 1419 01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,360 Speaker 2: I think the Bucks will cover a two and a 1420 01:11:56,400 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 2: half point spread. Task gets the Celtics because I think 1421 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 2: he was probably still asleep when we made these pairs. 1422 01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 2: And we can't have three of the same deer head 1423 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 2: on the graphic. That would be ridiculous. What do you think, Ash, 1424 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 2: Who's going to win this game? 1425 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:12,160 Speaker 5: I gotta go with Boston because you know I'm a 1426 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:12,720 Speaker 5: Celtics fan. 1427 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:15,680 Speaker 2: I do know you're a fake Celtics fan.

You're a Hawks. 1431 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 5: Look like I put it the other day, I am 1432 01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 5: a Celtics fan who cheers for the hometown Hawks. 1433 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 2: Respect. 1434 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:29,280 Speaker 5: It's because when I was getting into watching NBA basketball 1435 01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,080 Speaker 5: when I was in seventh grade. Yeah, this when they 1436 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,599 Speaker 5: just got KG they just got Ray Allen, and I 1437 01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:37,240 Speaker 5: was like, man, I gotta find a team that I 1438 01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 5: want to win, and that was the Celtics. 1439 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,320 Speaker 2: Oh, you made a good choice back then. That's pretty 1440 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:46,759 Speaker 2: crazy though. So you said sixth grade, you were eleven 1441 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 2: years old. That was the last time the Kings made 1442 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 2: the playoffs. You really got into basketball in seventh grade. 1443 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,000 Speaker 2: You've never seen the Kings in the playoffs. 1444 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,719 Speaker 5: I mean, I watched basketball, but I just didn't follow 1445 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,320 Speaker 5: it like the way I follow basketball now. Is I 1446 01:12:58,360 --> 01:12:59,639 Speaker 5: started that in like seventh grade? 1447 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,400 Speaker 2: Yes, I get you. All right, let's answer some rapid 1448 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 2: fire questions. This should be nice and quick. Yesterday's tweet 1449 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:09,680 Speaker 2: of the night seemed to show former WNBA player in 1450 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:13,600 Speaker 2: Atlanta legend Rene Montgomery at a Hawks game totally alone. 1451 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:16,679 Speaker 2: No other fans can be seen. You can't see anyone 1452 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:20,000 Speaker 2: at the scorer's table. Looks like there's nobody but her 1453 01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 2: watching Donovan Mitchell shoot free throws. Great way to see 1454 01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,400 Speaker 2: a game. What is something you'd like to see as 1455 01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,839 Speaker 2: a private solo show? Jerome? 1456 01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 5: What you got? 1457 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:33,800 Speaker 3: First off? I want to start this by saying when 1458 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,400 Speaker 3: you ask, when you said private solo show. I was 1459 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 3: incredibly uneasy with this in so many different ways. I 1460 01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 3: don't even know if I want because, like if it's 1461 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:47,960 Speaker 3: a concert or performance or anything like that, Like it's 1462 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:51,439 Speaker 3: just so awkward to be like the one person watching them. 1463 01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:54,639 Speaker 3: What is my angle to go in? And I think 1464 01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,640 Speaker 3: my angle is like, what was the place where you know, 1465 01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,519 Speaker 3: normally people weren't able to go and I could be 1466 01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:01,600 Speaker 3: the solo person who got to view it?

So but I 1493 01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 4: did pick a music thing, and I sort of I'm 1494 01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:36,240 Speaker 4: kind of taking Jerome's answer and making it musical. And 1495 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,640 Speaker 4: I'm now listen, I just sat through fifteen minutes of 1496 01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 4: you guys doing anime talk.

And as 1499 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 4: John Williams composing, it's him composing the score to empire 1500 01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 4: strikes back, and it's him talking to the composed the 1501 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:00,680 Speaker 4: You may have seen this clip as Shit's it's uh, 1502 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 4: he's talking to the I guess the composed the actual 1503 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:09,760 Speaker 4: conductor or the orchestra liaison, and it's from basically going 1504 01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:13,720 Speaker 4: from his head to the actual orchestra, and when he 1505 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:15,840 Speaker 4: hears it for the first time played back to him, 1506 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 4: it's it's an incredible moment. I got to play for 1507 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 4: you now. 1508 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,679 Speaker 1: So here it is so here twenty five seconds point one. 1509 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:25,759 Speaker 1: Some little objects float by the window, and the strings 1510 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:30,759 Speaker 1: would be sustained here. But it's a Celeste sounding logo, 1511 01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 1: I think her sounding logo here like that, but exactly 1512 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:41,040 Speaker 1: twenty five seconds point one. That way, with two clarinets, 1513 01:16:41,120 --> 01:16:45,559 Speaker 1: they are leaving the flutes free to play piccolo. Three 1514 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 1: piccolos at thirty six seconds as we see these bats 1515 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:55,559 Speaker 1: and it's suddenly presto with four piccolos doing sex tuple's 1516 01:16:55,560 --> 01:17:18,120 Speaker 1: about as fast as they can do them. 1517 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:26,439 Speaker 4: Oh boy, this is officially the dorkiest episode of NODONK ever. 1518 01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 4: But that's what I want to be. I want to be, 1519 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 4: I want to be. It could be present day John Williams. 1520 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 4: Guy's over ninety now and he's still a legend. And 1521 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 4: just to see him create from writing it on the page, 1522 01:17:38,520 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 4: which he probably still does to the orchestra. I just 1523 01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 4: want to be in the room. I want to be 1524 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:44,679 Speaker 4: in the room. 1525 01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 3: I'm with you, j I think this one of the 1526 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:50,559 Speaker 3: things was like to be flying the wall as like 1527 01:17:50,800 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 3: something truly spectacular or iconic was being made. 1528 01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:59,639 Speaker 2: So yeah, watching musicians create something is just like incredible. 1529 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 2: There's that scene in that Beatles documentary when they're writing 1530 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 2: get Back and it comes from messing about and suddenly 1531 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:09,840 Speaker 2: it's a hit song. Incredible stuff. Wild to see him 1532 01:18:09,840 --> 01:18:11,880 Speaker 2: doing it for a movie, talking about like the plot 1533 01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 2: points of the movie as well. But I'll say four 1534 01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 2: Piccolo's doing sex tuplet sounds like a different kind of 1535 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:19,040 Speaker 2: private solo show JD. 1536 01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:22,320 Speaker 4: And then either way, I'm rock hard. 1537 01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 2: All right. Here's a real thing I read this week. 1538 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:32,200 Speaker 2: A giant meatball made from flesh cultivated using the DNA 1539 01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 2: of an extinct wooly mammoth has been unveiled at a 1540 01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 2: science museum in the Netherlands. Apparently, the meatball was made 1541 01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:43,759 Speaker 2: of sheep cells inserted in a with a singular mammoth gene. 1542 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:48,040 Speaker 2: Called myoglobin. As we all know when it comes to meet, 1543 01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:54,160 Speaker 2: myoglobin is responsible for the aroma, the color, and the taste. Guys. 1544 01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 2: One is a time that science went too far. Jerome 1545 01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,759 Speaker 2: green ketchup. That's the thing. 1546 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:06,479 Speaker 3: When I think it was the thing. I don't know 1547 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:08,240 Speaker 3: if it made it across the border, but I know 1548 01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 3: one time I can't exactly recall when they decided, you 1549 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 3: know what, let's make the ketchup green. 1550 01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:15,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember that. 1551 01:19:15,600 --> 01:19:20,160 Speaker 3: No science, you've gone to science. I will not accept 1552 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 3: this condiment that is on the opposite end of the 1553 01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:25,080 Speaker 3: spectrum of Christmas colors. This is not the thing to do. 1554 01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:29,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, green tomatoes. 1555 01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 5: I know, but it looks the best. 1556 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. And also green tomatoes aren't as good as red. 1557 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:36,280 Speaker 4: But it's so stupid too, because kids already love ketchup, 1558 01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 4: and that's what it's for, right, So it's like, wow, 1559 01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,959 Speaker 4: we want to encourage kids to eat more ketchup. 1560 01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:44,600 Speaker 2: They love it already, they absolutely love it. 1561 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 4: So it's the stupidest marketing thing, I agree. 1562 01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:52,840 Speaker 2: Ash. One's a time that science went too far. Jada, 1563 01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:56,479 Speaker 2: you got the video.

This is a time 1565 01:19:58,880 --> 01:19:59,840 Speaker 5: that science went too far. 1566 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:01,760 Speaker 4: I forgot my tools again. 1567 01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 5: All right, for those listening, this robot right, well, now 1568 01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:12,439 Speaker 5: this robot is can jump and walk and has his 1569 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:15,640 Speaker 5: own mind, Like this is ridiculous.
