Speaker 1: The volume. What's up, guys, and welcome to another episode
Speaker 1: of this doesn't have a name. If any of you
Speaker 1: guys have named suggestions, please let me know and comment
Speaker 1: down below in the comments. I'm sort of thinking like
Speaker 1: slow Nose Talks or something like that, but it's not
Speaker 1: definite anyways. This is just an episode where I talk
Speaker 1: by myself, no guests, so let's see us.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: So we're two weeks into the NBA season and here
Speaker 1: are some just overall big takeaways from the media. Right,
Speaker 1: the Calves and the Thunder are the only two undefeated teams.
Speaker 1: The Jazz unfortunately still haven't won a game, The Bucks
Speaker 1: are really bad, Brownie scored his first points, and Joelle
Speaker 1: Embiid got into a physical alter with a member of
Speaker 1: the media, so a lot of stuff's going on. My
Speaker 1: biggest takeaway is that the Dubs are five and one,
Speaker 1: and you know, Steph has only really played two and
Speaker 1: a half of those six games, which is very exciting.
Speaker 1: We went too and oh against the Pelicans, so it
Speaker 1: must suck to be a Pelicans fan, just saying, but
Speaker 1: it's been big. I loved all of our you know,
Speaker 1: signings from the off season. Kyle Anderson has been great.
Speaker 1: Danthony Melton had a little injury problem, but he's worked
Speaker 1: out for us. But the most important Warriors pickup of
Speaker 1: the season has been Buddy Healt. Let's talk about Buddy.
Speaker 1: One thing that I wanted to say, I noticed say
Speaker 1: in no context NBA moment before I go into this,
Speaker 1: when I looked up Buddy Healed to get some of
Speaker 1: his specific stats down on ESPN. It said Buddy Healed
Speaker 1: dash Golden State Warriors shooting guard. And then there was
Speaker 1: a picture of Danthony Melton, which I liked. So you know,
Speaker 1: if no context NBA takes that, hopefully I get credit. Anyways,
Speaker 1: I've been I've seen a lot of questions that I've asked.
Speaker 1: Has Buddy already filled Clay's shoes? Now that's offensive to
Speaker 1: Klay Thompson. Buddy hasn't and will never unless he somehow
Speaker 1: finds a way to win three chips fill Klay Thompson's shoes.
Speaker 1: But I do believe that these first six games have
Speaker 1: been incredible and that they have filled Klay thompson shoes
Speaker 1: from last season. Not the Klay Thompson that we know
Speaker 1: in love, not thirty seven points in a quarter not
Speaker 1: sixty points on eleven dribbles Klay Thompson, but Klay Thompson
Speaker 1: from the twenty twenty three to twenty twenty four season.
Speaker 1: I believe that in these six games those shoes have
Speaker 1: pretty much already been filled. Buddy's been a great fit
Speaker 1: for the Warriors so far. You know, six games in
Speaker 1: he shot fifty one percent from the field, He scored
Speaker 1: nineteen in the fourth quarter, and he is the leading
Speaker 1: scorer for the Warriors with Steph hurt, and I just
Speaker 1: can't think of a more perfect secondhand man for Steph.
Speaker 1: Andrew Wiggins has also been really stepping up, especially when
Speaker 1: it comes to scoring. Last year he was a little inconsistent.
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, there was games where he
Speaker 1: would go off, and there was games when he wouldn't
Speaker 1: really break fifteen points. And so I really loved what
Speaker 1: I've been able to see by guys on the Warriors
Speaker 1: that are not named Steph Curry putting up real big numbers.
Speaker 2: That's been really nice to see.
Speaker 1: On the topic of Steph, I think it's interesting because
Speaker 1: you know, he's only really played two and a half games.
Speaker 2: Buddy hild is the leading scorer.
Speaker 1: But from what I've seen so far, this doesn't really
Speaker 1: seem like it's going to be a thirty points per
Speaker 1: game season for Steph. It looks a little bit more
Speaker 1: like he's gonna step into a more traditional point guard
Speaker 1: role and get a lot of other guys, you know,
Speaker 1: the Jonathan Kamingas of the world, an opportunity to really
Speaker 1: come out of their shell, which I really like to see.
Speaker 1: You know, in his first game, he was I think
Speaker 1: either one rebound, yeah, I believe one rebound away from
Speaker 1: a triple double. So if this is a Steph Curry
Speaker 1: triple double season with you know, a few forty point
Speaker 1: games scattered here and there as a Warriors fan, and
Speaker 1: with Buddy Heald slaying like this, that is what I
Speaker 1: want to see.
Speaker 2: Let's move on.
Speaker 1: So today I saw that the Detroit Pistons went to
Speaker 1: their game on the subway. First off, that's really cool.
Speaker 2: I like seeing that. It's very down to earth.
Speaker 1: It reminds me of that meme where jay Z is
Speaker 1: talking to that grandma, you know, on the train to
Speaker 1: his show and she asks if he's famous, hits really
Speaker 1: down to earth. It's a really cool vibe. Definitely can
Speaker 1: get some fire Instagram posts. But what I thought was
Speaker 1: funny was that it's the Pistons because if the Lakers
Speaker 1: or the Warriors were on a subway, think about how
Speaker 1: a Lebron or a step would absolutely get swarm But
Speaker 1: because the Pistons, sorry Kate, don't really have a nationally
Speaker 1: recognized star, it wasn't like that, Like there's no way
Speaker 1: a Grandma on the subway was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's Ron Holland that was my favorite player on the
Speaker 1: G League gig night.
Speaker 2: Like no one is saying that.
Speaker 1: So I wonder how many people were like, Oh, it's
Speaker 1: the Pistons, or how many people were like, oh, there's
Speaker 1: just some tall guys on the subway. I think that
Speaker 1: that's funny to see. But I would like to see
Speaker 1: that again. I want to see, like, you know, the
Speaker 1: Celtics or something hop on the subway. That'd be cool
Speaker 1: to see. Okay, Happy Halloween. I want to move into
Speaker 1: a little bit about Halloween costumes. So first off, I
Speaker 1: want to talk about Wemby's costume. I'm sorry if I
Speaker 1: pronounce this right, but I think it's.
Speaker 2: Kaa nosh.
Speaker 1: I watched a video on how to pronounce it ka
Speaker 1: no she I believe from the movie spirited away.
Speaker 2: He was scary.
Speaker 1: He looked really scary, but he also looked like he
Speaker 1: was about to face plan. He was like stuck in
Speaker 1: that dress sort of thing. As he was walking, he
Speaker 1: was like waddling, and I kept being like, oh my god, no, Wemby,
Speaker 1: don't fall, don't fall, don't follow you up such.
Speaker 2: A big future ahead of you. You know.
Speaker 1: I did like this costume, but I don't think anything
Speaker 1: compares to Wemby's rookie year. Slenderman Halloween costume is so funny.
Speaker 1: It just like highlights how skinny and tall and lengthy
Speaker 1: he is. And I know that the goal is to
Speaker 1: be scary, but I love that costume.
Speaker 2: I think it's so funny.
Speaker 1: So that was my honorary mention for NBA player Halloween costume,
Speaker 1: Jay Huff of the Memphis Grizzlies. You know, he went
Speaker 1: to the University of Virginia dressed up as Kyle Kuzma.
Speaker 2: That was my winner. It was hilarious.
Speaker 1: The outfit was so spot on, from the beanie to
Speaker 1: the length of the sweater. In fact, he actually exaggerated
Speaker 1: the length of the sweater, you know, instead of I
Speaker 1: think Kuzma's sleeves were about to his knees. Jay Huff's
Speaker 1: sleeves were dragging on the floor. I really like to
Speaker 1: see that. I believe I'm a few other people in
Speaker 1: the media. I think Taylor Rooks also did a costume
Speaker 1: similar to that, which I really like to see. It's
Speaker 1: funny to see other NBA players act as other NBA players.
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards was mister Incredible, which is cool, but I
Speaker 1: feel like he missed out on a perfect, perfect, perfect
Speaker 1: situation to be.
Speaker 2: Ant Man.
Speaker 1: You know, like, I'm not really a superhero person, but
Speaker 1: it's still would be really cool to see AMPI ant Man. So,
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards, if you're listening to this next year, I
Speaker 1: think we all want to see you dress up as
Speaker 1: ant Man.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: My last well two points combined for my last points
Speaker 1: of this short little segment, which is Bronni's first bucket.
Speaker 1: I know that there's so much hate surrounding it, but
Speaker 1: I do think it was really cool to see.
Speaker 2: I mean, how.
Speaker 1: Cool is that to be playing in a game, a
Speaker 1: professional game on the highest level with your dad and
Speaker 1: be able to score points. That's pretty awesome to see.
Speaker 1: I think we need to tone down the hate. It's
Speaker 1: still a pretty cool, pretty cool story. I do think,
Speaker 1: you know, Bronnie could obviously benefit from some time in
Speaker 1: the G League. Of course, I don't think he's ready
Speaker 1: for real NBA minutes, but I'm glad he got a bucket.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: On the topic of the James family, I saw a
Speaker 1: stat that said that Lebron's all time career average against
Speaker 1: the Raptors was fifty two points per game. And I'm
Speaker 1: not a Lebron bandwagon, right, but I do think Lebron
Speaker 1: is the greatest player of all time, so much so
Speaker 1: that I believed that stat. In fact, I wrote a
Speaker 1: whole ramp on my handy little iPad here about how
Speaker 1: this stat speaks for itself and shows Lebron's consistency and
Speaker 1: how Lebron has played late the Raptors sixty one times
Speaker 1: in these twenty two seasons, and how that's amazing. I
Speaker 1: got NBA centled it wasn't real. It was a fake stat,
Speaker 1: But I think the fact that I almost almost almost
Speaker 1: believed it shows all the points that I just said,
Speaker 1: how consistent Lebron has been, so much so that I
Speaker 1: believed in sixty one games against the Raptors it would
Speaker 1: be possible for him to average fifty points. Anyways, thank
Speaker 1: you guys so much for listening, and yet again I
Speaker 1: need those name Rex.
Speaker 2: Bye.
