63
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,560

64
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: Somebody, please dunk on your grandma. That's all we're asking. Yeah,

65
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: dunk on your grandma, Yes, but just.

66
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 4: Don't hurt it, all right, Winners and losers of the

67
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 4: NBA weekend. We'll tackle a whole lot here from the association.

68
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 4: Let's start with the winners task. Who you got first?

69
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: As we used to say on the starters, Let's get

70
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: into it. The Derek Rose renaissance, it continues, Baby. He's

71
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: on his way to a six Man of the Year trophy.

72
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: And even if he doesn't get there, I think the

73
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: narrative has changed enough around Derek Rose that he's starting

74
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: to feel a little bit like Vince Carter, where he

75
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: reached his peak, fell off big time, and then sort

76
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: of found his way as a sixth man on the roads.

77
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: Saturday in Houston, de Rose had ten of his twenty

78
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: points in the fourth court. Or he's becoming their fourth

79
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: quarter assassin, they win the game. Blake Griffin was also

80
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: out of that game in the second half because of

81
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: a left knee injury, that same knee that he had

82
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: surgery on in the spring. So that I think bodes

83
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: well a little bit for the the Derreck Rose narrative.

84
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: If they continue to win games in the fourth quarter

85
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: as Derek Ross has been doing for that team, I

86
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: think he's got a little bit of a Vince Carter

87
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: vibe and we talked about him potentially getting into the

88
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame a few weeks ago or a couple

89
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: weeks ago on Beach Steppin, some scoffed, totally understandable. He's

90
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 1: not quite close. But if he really turns that narrative around,

91
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: as he started to last year with a really good

92
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: season in Minnesota as a sixth man. Now he's doing

93
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: it with the Detroit Pistons as their closer. This I

94
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: think this bodes well. Again, he's young enough if he

95
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 1: gets that right mentality like Vince Carter did basically saying,

96
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna play As he's playing twenty

97
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: four minutes a game, most of those in the fourth

98
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: quarter or a lot of those in the fourth quarter,

99
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: and you're if he's just awesome in that quarter, then

100
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: the narrative changes big time. And who the heck knows

101
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 1: about his Hall of Fame chances, But I think a

102
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: sixth man of the Trophy is a legit. He's got

103
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: a legitimate shot at Yeah.

104
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 4: I mean if he plays like I don't know, Lou

105
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: Williams light here for four or five seasons where he

106
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 4: becomes this closer in that six man role. Yeah, Okay,

107
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 4: maybe maybe he has a better case to get into

108
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 4: the Hall of Fame. I'm skeptical that it happens, but

109
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 4: I'm very happy to see him sort of flourishing in

110
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 4: this role. I mean, he did this at times for

111
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 4: the Wolves last season, but you know, yeah, so far,

112
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 4: so good.

113
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 5: With yeah fifty. I don't know if that was off

114
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 5: the bench or whatever for the Wolves last season, but

115
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 5: it showed that he can still score and he's still

116
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 5: because the big problem with him is health and his

117
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 5: knees and his ankles and whether or not they can

118
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 5: play for another five years.

119
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: I think another problem is just attitude. I mean, it's

120
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: it's hard for a guy to go from MVP to

121
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: oh hey, I'm a six man. It's just it's just hard.

122
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 5: It's funny because let's say you reverse his career and

123
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 5: say he started off with all these injuries and he

124
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 5: bounced around a few teams, and then all of a

125
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 5: sudden he got healthy, and then all of a sudden

126
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 5: he became an MVP. You would think he's probably forcing

127
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 5: his way into the Hall of Fame.

128
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 4: That well you're saying, you're saying to flip his career, Yeah, yeah.

129
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 5: If he sort of ended the way he started. You know,

130
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 5: that would probably strengthen his case because we go, oh,

131
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 5: this guy, we thought he was finished, but he's he's

132
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 5: come out to know where to win MVP.

133
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: But I that would be an amazing story.

134
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm also still you know, skeptical, like it's it's

135
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 5: you know, he's performing well, no doubt, but I think

136
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 5: as well being on the Pistons and the team that

137
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 5: may or may not even make the playoffs, that's also

138
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 5: going to just affect him. It's people are just going

139
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 5: to kind of forget about this season. If he wins

140
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 5: six Man and he's certainly in the running, it helps,

141
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 5: but he has to do a whole lot more. And

142
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 5: you know, you mentioned Vince Card, but I still think

143
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 5: it's more like a Dwight Howard. He needs to really

144
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 5: rehabilitate himself and then being on a team where he

145
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 5: can actually win a championship.

146
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 2: I thought it was funny that after the win he

147
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 2: said he wanted to be like Kobe and play for

148
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 2: a long time and never change his game, which he hasn't.

149
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 2: He plays the exact same as he does. Because he

150
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 2: saw some of the highlight mixes called it vintage Derreck

151
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 2: Rose and I was watched. I was like, I don't

152
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: know if this is vintage Derek Rose. He's doing pull

153
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: up jumpers all the time down the clutch, but he

154
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 2: was making them. And then I start thinking, oh, yeah,

155
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 2: when he was with the Bulls, he took way too

156
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 2: many jumpers. I was like, go to the room every time.

157
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 2: But now that he's a little bit older, a little

158
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,840
Speaker 2: bit wiser, has been healthy for a few seasons, He's

159
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 2: been able to work on his jumper. I remember him

160
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: telling three D a while ago that he finally doesn't

161
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: have to rehab in the summer, so we can actually

162
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: work on his game. It's paying off. The six man

163
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: role is good for him. He gets to do everything

164
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 2: he wants when he has the ball. He doesn't really

165
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: need to worry about getting guys involved, though he does so. Yeah,

166
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 2: moving into the six man role has been good for

167
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: Derreck Rose and has been good for the Pistons. He's

168
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: he's been maybe their best player so far this season.

169
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Drummond is putting up big time stats. Blake

170
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 2: is their best guy, but he hasn't looked right throughout

171
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: this season. Rose has won them quite a few games.

172
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if Blake continues to be injured as he

173
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: was the second half that game. Had to sit out

174
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: with that knee injury as I slipped in there, the

175
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: one that he had surgery on. That's scary for them

176
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: and Derek Rows will have all the opportunity in the world,

177
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: but yeah, they have to win games for him to

178
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: really really reabilitate his image. But against the Rockets, there's

179
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: a whole lot of space out there with that defense.

180
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: They're just like him do whatever he wants. But he

181
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: was doing it well.

182
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 4: One of my winners of the weekend Lebron James Lebron

183
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: maybe had the perfect weekend when you think about it. Friday,

184
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 4: his Lakers going to Miami and they pulled out a

185
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 4: very competitive one to thirteen, one to ten win. Lebron

186
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 4: Okay Classic twenty eight, twelve and nine. He hit four

187
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 4: threes in that one. He was plus nine and again

188
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 4: a very close game. All right, that's on Friday. On Saturday,

189
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 4: Dad Lebron, he got to go see his son Brony

190
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 4: make his Ohio debut. He watched him hit the go

191
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: ahead shot and his team's win over Lebron's old Saint

192
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 4: Vincent Saint Mary Irish so he's cheering on that squad,

193
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 4: all right, So he's got a win, and he's dad

194
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 4: Lebron seeing his son ball out and he wins. And

195
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 4: then on Sunday Lebron here in Atlanta, he wasn't done.

196
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 4: He posted a cool thirty two thirteen and seven, another

197
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 4: four mad threes. He's a plus ten in again a

198
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 4: close game, as the Hawks made it competitive but lost

199
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 4: by five, so the Lakers win one on one ninety six.

200
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 4: This would have been a twenty point blow blowout if

201
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 4: the Lakers hit a three. Lebron was the only one

202
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 4: that could hit a three in this game for the Lakers.

203
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 4: But still the Lebron highlights in this Sunday game too.

204
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: I was down there at the fortress, so was Trey.

205
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 4: I mean he had he had the double clutch sort

206
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 4: of like pump dunk. He had the spin in the slam,

207
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 4: he had the dropping the bounce pass between the legs

208
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: to Dwight who was trailing, who hammered it home and

209
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 4: he hit bomb three. He's the ones here were hitting

210
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 4: from the logo. And he had the fake block on

211
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 4: Rondo after Rondo did Lorondo fake path behind the back

212
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 4: and then laid it in and Lebron did what you

213
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 4: don't see often fake blocked his own teammate. So they

214
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 4: were having fun. And again that's like the perfect weekend.

215
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 4: He got two wins and he saw Brownie Jr. Hit

216
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 4: the game winning bucket off had a great steal.

217
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:47,199
Speaker 1: Going the other way.

218
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 5: It had load management written all over this game too.

219
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 4: He was listed as questionable.

220
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, with an elbow. It's like he's going to see

221
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 5: your son. He's playing the Hawks. This is a game

222
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 5: Lebron can just said a tight he did.

223
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,079
Speaker 2: I didn't think Lebron was playing super hard for this game.

224
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: Nobody on the Lakers was. They were going for highlights.

225
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 2: It was paying off and he still ends up with

226
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 2: thirty two and thirteen and seven. Laura messaged me during

227
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 2: the game, She's like, how's the game. I'm like, it's fine.

228
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: I've got two pictures of Lebron dunking already. And it

229
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 2: was like the second quarter because he was out there,

230
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: especially in the second quarter, trying to put his stamp

231
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 2: on the game and get into a highlight mix and

232
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 2: it was it was fun to watch. I mean, the

233
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 2: guy had the Fortress crowd eating out of the palm

234
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: of his hand. There were a lot of Lakers fans there,

235
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 2: but it made for a fun watch, it was.

236
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 4: And then after the game, I mean you thought that

237
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 4: he may not play in this yere rightly, he reiterated

238
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 4: he ain't gonna be sitting games when he's healthy. This

239
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,359
Speaker 4: is what he said. He says he has an obligation

240
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,679
Speaker 4: to teammates and the fans that obviously, you know, pay

241
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 4: good money to come watch him play. You know, he

242
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 4: went on about it, but that's basically what he was saying.

243
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 4: You know, who knows how many games I have left?

244
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 4: I don't know how many kids that may show up

245
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 4: to a game that are there to come see me play.

246
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 4: What happens if I sit out? And all that he

247
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 4: says he is he is going to be playing here

248
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 4: when healthy, and I mean so fun. He hasn' missed

249
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 4: a game.

250
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he mentioned earlier this season and he wants

251
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 5: to play old eighty two. So whether or not he

252
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 5: will do that come closer to playoffs, well he did.

253
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 4: Say, what once they've clinched and you know they can't

254
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 4: get any better or worse, let's say, when it comes

255
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 4: to standings or seedings.

256
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 5: Whatever, then yeah, then he might take a couple of years off,

257
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 5: but until then he says, no, Yeah, that was a

258
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 5: great pumpson and the Hawks felt like it was probably

259
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 5: a little closer than it was, but that's fine, you know,

260
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 5: that's well.

261
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 4: They had a great look to tie the game up.

262
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 4: Ye Vince Carter driving inside Lebron. Actually that was the

263
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 4: one blemish on his sort of perfect weekend. Lebron got caught,

264
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 4: you know, whether he was going to challenge Vince at

265
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 4: the rim. Yeah, Like the Hawks are down three, They're like,

266
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 4: what's how many He's like, I don't know, like twelve

267
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: seconds something like that in the game, so they need

268
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 4: a three. But they could do the old take the

269
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 4: quick two. You could still play the foulon game. Hawks

270
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 4: did have a time out too, so they could have

271
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 4: then advanced it. But Lebron sort of caught there. He

272
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 4: doesn't go enough at Vince. Vince could have laid it up,

273
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 4: but he's like, well, there's a guy wide open in

274
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 4: the corner. Unfortunately for the Hawks, with Cam Reddish, who

275
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 4: can't hit a corner three the same his life, had

276
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 4: a good look at it because Lebron wasn't near him

277
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 4: and he missed. And then Danny Green hit some free throws.

278
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 2: That was very funny the way Vince went in because

279
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,719
Speaker 2: everybody overplayed the three point line as you should, so

280
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 2: Vince had a pretty clear path to the basket, and

281
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: he was like walking down the lane like is somebody

282
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: gonna come? Is somebody gonna come? It probably took about

283
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 2: three seconds to go from the three point line to

284
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: the hoop. Lebron finally was like, I guess, I guess

285
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: I moved over. He kind of came over, whipped it

286
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 2: to the corner and yeah, reddish myss. Not even the

287
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: worst miss of a corner. Three though. Down the stretch

288
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: for the Hawks, Jabari Parker had another one from the

289
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: other corner, shot at about thirty feet from the corner.

290
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 2: That was a nasty air.

291
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 4: The crowd like literally more was.

292
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 5: Like whoa Vince? Sad to say, Vince had a couple

293
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 5: of moments in this game where I thought he looked

294
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 5: forty three. Definitely a couple of times it was just like, oh,

295
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 5: oh yeah, it's starting to catch up with a little beer.

296
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 1: He was only forty two.

297
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 5: He's only forty January.

298
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: Forty third pretty soon? Yeah, forty third, my god, which

299
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: is nuts. Yeah, but yeah, cameras missed that three. Trey Young,

300
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: nice hug for him afterwards, trying to consume him a

301
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 1: little bit. Yeah, they're not going to win a lot

302
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: of games right now if you can't hit shots. The

303
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: Lakers took this game off and they still won it,

304
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: and you talked about load management skets. Maybe they should.

305
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: Maybe Lebron will not miss a game this year. That's

306
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: why that the whole talk about him sitting out games

307
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: at home or players sitting out games at home, is

308
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: a good idea. So the road team doesn't see them,

309
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: you know, gets to see them. I should say, and

310
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: all the all the road fans, Lebron sit at home

311
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: against the Lakers, just like you know, Giannis did sit

312
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 1: out a game last week. That was load management. It

313
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: wasn't a quad injury. Chill out at home. I think

314
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. I once one comment

315
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: about the the ultimate disrespect that going to fake a

316
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: block on your own teammates shot. That is that the

317
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: that is the ultimate disrespect. I mean, that is hilarious.

318
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

319
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: I saw Lebron spin a ball on the three point line,

320
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 2: stare down the guy, and then drill a three right

321
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 2: in his face during the playoffs. That was pretty nasty too,

322
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 2: U Lebron. The ultimate disrespect, though, was Kevin Herder on

323
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 2: the Jumbo Tron last night. He did the Peachtree ATL

324
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 2: Wrap bracket. At one point he picked Rich the Kid

325
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: over Outcast and the crowd boot. They put like a

326
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 2: growling face emoji up on there. A suspect pick from

327
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 2: Kevin Herder though. I mean they had.

328
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 4: Kevin Herder literally picked like a sixty four bracket in

329
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 4: a minute.

330
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 2: It was pretty crazy.

331
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: They got through it. It's like it's like Kevin Durant

332
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: talking about the Knicks. The next haven't been cool in

333
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: a long time. Podcast hasn't been together for a long time.

334
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: It's a great point.

335
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: It's understandable for mister Herder as a kid. It's understandable

336
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: the kid.

337
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 4: When Lebron did that fake block on Rondo's layup of town,

338
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 4: like you know, we were all up there going what

339
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 4: did we what just happened there? Like everyone was trying

340
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 4: to like clarify, like he did just sort of playfully

341
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 4: fake block that, right.

342
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: Like what happened when he was in practice?

343
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I don't know if you've seen it. The

344
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 4: great Twitter account and Instagram account dunk comp and they

345
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 4: got a sticker there on your computerly, Uh, they had

346
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 4: an old clip of Vince Carter is sort of doing

347
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 4: something similar back when he was with the Nets. Because

348
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 4: I couldn't remember. We're sitting up in the game one.

349
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 4: I can't remember ever seen that, but it has happened

350
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 4: before somewhat similar. Vince. I think I think he thinks

351
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 4: he's getting like the alley oop on the two on

352
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 4: oh break when he was back in the Nets, So

353
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 4: he's sort of just playfully. Yeah, yeah, where Lebron's is

354
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 4: more of the fake block. It was an entertaining game again,

355
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 4: it was almost I was almost happy. The Lakers couldn't

356
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 4: hit a three, so it was very close. And uh yeah,

357
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 4: cam b Reddish Cambridge had a rough Game's not gonna

358
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 4: lie he Yeah, some pretty brutal turnovers.

359
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 2: They're just living with it right now.

360
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

361
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 2: If we're gonna be good in the future, our young

362
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: guys are going to have to perform, So I got

363
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: to take some lumps.

364
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 4: That's exactly right.

365
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 5: All right, Well, just one thing quickly, because you mentioned

366
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 5: Lebron went back on Saturday to see his son Bernie

367
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 5: Junior play. I thought fantastic father son moment there, and

368
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 5: I cannot believe on Twitter people were slagging Lebron off

369
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 5: as if as if he was like trying to crash

370
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 5: his son's moment there father they're supporting himself.

371
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 4: Is that what the backlash is?

372
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: Yeah?

373
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 5: Like, I mean, Lebron just cannot d anything without some

374
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 5: people feeling like like if people hate him, that's what

375
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 5: that's what they do. Because for me, for him to

376
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 5: make that effort to go and see his son, I

377
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 5: thought was special because he talked about he said, I

378
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 5: miss my daughter going to gymnastics. I missed my other

379
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 5: kids birthday parts and things like that. So if his

380
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 5: schedule allows him to go there and cheer on his son,

381
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 5: good on him, Lebron father of the year stuff right there.

382
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 5: I just I know Twitter, like you can say anything, relax.

383
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 3: Father of the year to go from father, but he

384
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 3: missed his daughter's gymnastics.

385
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, but listen, he's there supporting his father, supporting his son.

386
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 5: I just can't believe anyone would see any negative aspect

387
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 5: of what he's doing there. I think that's ridiculous.

388
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 1: I guess that's sort of a snowball from other games

389
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: where he cheers too hard as said earlier, like he's

390
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: the camera's on him, and it's just like that's what

391
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: it is.

392
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 4: Now, I'd like to see where all these people are like, oh,

393
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,439
Speaker 4: these guys are soft, they're always taking games off, they

394
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 4: never want to play anymore, load management, blah blah blah.

395
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 4: And then here comes Lebrons like, now I'm not gonna

396
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 4: do that. I'm gonna play basically every game. Well, so

397
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 4: where are all the champions for him? Shouldn't you be

398
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 4: like in his corner like, yeah, Lebron's right, that's awesome.

399
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 4: You're a hater. You're a hater, doesn't matter.

400
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna take a few games off later you will.

401
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 4: Well, here's the funny thing. The Lakers have an unbelievable record,

402
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,880
Speaker 4: no doubt, they are squeaking out a lot of these wins. Now, yes,

403
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,880
Speaker 4: I do agree they were like playing half ass last

404
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 4: yesterday on Sunday against the Hawks. They definitely were.

405
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 1: But they do that from time to time for sure, right.

406
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 4: Right, but they a lot of these are close.

407
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 5: I mean they just theyd right.

408
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: There's another one.

409
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 4: There's been a couple other instances, but they're they're they're

410
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 4: still you know, racking up the wins of course, and

411
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 4: still trying to keep that separation between I guess the

412
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 4: Clippers sort of in second place there. I think there

413
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 4: are they like four and a half games up, very

414
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 4: very early. Of course you're still and getting those dubs.

415
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: And their point in differential is the same as basically

416
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 1: the same as the third place Stallas match. Speaking to

417
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: how close they are, just squeaking games out, they do

418
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 1: take off two and a half quarters and then you know,

419
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: when the game got's close, they say, Okay, I got

420
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: we got a freaking do this. Let's go. Let's go

421
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: do it. You slept it in there, Skeets. I thought

422
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: it was hilarious people calling Bronni James Lebron's son his

423
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 1: first game in Ohio, his Ohio debut. Yeah, it is

424
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: so funny, just so funny that it's high.

425
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 5: School basketball work that California is playing Ohio.

426
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 4: And again I think his team, Sierrah canon Is has

427
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,400
Speaker 4: like is on like a four state tour right now,

428
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 4: like they go everywhere.

429
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: They're very famous. Yeah, I mean, Bronni is coming off

430
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: the bench and he's Lebron James's son. That's how many

431
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 2: good players they have there. No, that's right, they are.

432
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 4: They have like ten more games on ESPN.

433
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 2: I think they have more games on ESPN than several

434
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 2: NBA teams.

435
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 4: I mean, I look, I'm gonna be completely honest. I

436
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 4: didn't watch a single second of the game. I saw

437
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,959
Speaker 4: the highlight. I saw the nice steal, nice deflection by

438
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 4: Bronnie Junior, nice finish, nice little up going the other way.

439
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 4: But I'm not watching a goddamn high school basketball game.

440
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 4: I'm just never gonna do it.

441
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 2: Did you watch Lebron when he when his high school

442
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: games wrong?

443
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 4: Oh? I didn't.

444
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,360
Speaker 2: I did.

445
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: I should.

446
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 2: It was when I was like my age.

447
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 4: You know, I'm not even sure I could have back

448
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 4: up in Canada at that time watching We definitely didn't

449
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 4: get ESPN. I don't think it was on like T

450
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 4: sent ters on, Like, I don't think.

451
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 1: I don't know it wasn't. Yeah, it costs thirty seven

452
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: thousand dollars intuition for the high schoolers to attend that school.

453
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,120
Speaker 4: Wow, yeah, it's like this is isn't like the Jenners

454
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 4: will go there and like it's.

455
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: A rosters include the sons of former NBA player Scottie Pippen, Kenyon, Martin,

456
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: Marvin Bagley played there, Kendall and kind of Drake has

457
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 1: been to games as a fan.

458
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 2: Waite is a teammate.

459
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,719
Speaker 4: Right, yeah, yes, amazing. All right, let's keep it going here. Uh,

460
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 4: who do you got for Winter of the Weekend? I

461
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 4: think this is a perfect place for them to come up.

462
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 4: The Milwaukee Bucks have won eighteen straight games. Now, no

463
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 4: one cares. Nobody cares at all. They beat the Grizzlies

464
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 4: and Calves on Friday and Saturday. Not great teams, so

465
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 4: fair enough, not caring about that. But the thing that

466
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 4: made me care a little bit about this was being

467
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 4: at the Hawks game talking to people, saying people cared

468
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 4: more about the Hawks winning nineteen straight games back in

469
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 4: fourteen fifteen. This Bucks team, I guess, because it is

470
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 4: stretched over the course of a month from November eighth

471
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 4: until now, it's not as impressive. Otherwise, why are this

472
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 4: team not winning Player of the Week or Player of

473
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 4: the month for their entire team? There's eleven teams ever

474
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 4: have won eighteen straight games, and they're one of them. Yeah,

475
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 4: so you're saying, they're saying if they didn't, I think

476
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,959
Speaker 4: they're last loss on like November eighth, Right, So you're

477
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 4: saying if that was all jammed into the month of November,

478
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 4: like it.

479
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: Theyly got an undefeated month.

480
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 4: Yeah that right, right, that is funny.

481
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: But like they have the ragining MVP. Giannis is at

482
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 2: the very least one of the top three MVP candidates

483
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 2: right now. It's not like the Bucks have a long

484
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: track record of success that this is totally something we

485
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 2: should be used to. It's not like the Warriors of

486
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 2: like exactly, or the Heat when they won twenty seven games,

487
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 2: and even then it was like, well, yeah, you should

488
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 2: win twenty seven games, you have the best, right, this

489
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 2: is still a fresh team. I think a team that

490
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: people are could get something new to watch. But you know,

491
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 2: eighteen Street Wins is flying under the radar. This is

492
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 2: coming in third on our Winners of the weekend.

493
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 4: They're hammering teams.

494
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're killing teams.

495
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 5: Find them on the ESPN too, you can't. You can't

496
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 5: find it. They never make the little view exactly. It's

497
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 5: so true though, This is I guess good in some

498
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 5: ways for the Bucks and Mike budenholes that like they're

499
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 5: sort of flying under the radar s I guess if

500
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 5: you want to take a positive out of it. But yes,

501
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 5: if you're a Bucks fan and you what you expect

502
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 5: to get the same treatment that the Warriors got when

503
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 5: they were on their rise. You'd be very upset because

504
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 5: this is just being swept under the rug. But we'll

505
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,120
Speaker 5: find out the door.

506
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 4: If they stay undefeated and the Lakers keep rolling and

507
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 4: we have that clash this coming Thursday, that will get

508
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 4: some eyeballs. That one's on TNT.

509
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: I got to.

510
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 5: Assume he's given. Given the fact that the Mavericks play

511
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 5: the Bucks likely without Luke don you know they're going

512
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 5: to continue their winning streak. You would think going into

513
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 5: that like his game, which is what you want.

514
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, people think the Bucks are boring. That's that is

515
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: what it comes down to. People think that they are

516
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: sort of the New Age Spurs. They're just not sexy enough,

517
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: which is it's crazy, but it also combined the fact

518
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,680
Speaker 1: that there are other things to talk about in the league.

519
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 1: They are nobody cares. It's true they are to me,

520
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,159
Speaker 1: they are the New Age Spurs. I don't know if

521
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 1: anyone's going to talk about them, even if they win

522
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: a championship. They'll just be that team that does good.

523
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 4: The one sort of bad news for the Bucks this

524
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 4: weekend though was the Eric Bledsoe injury. Looks like he's

525
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 4: gonna be able a couple of weeks with the leg.

526
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 4: I guess fracture is what they're calling you a version

527
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 4: or something like that. So, yeah, that hurts.

528
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 2: But George Hill has played well. Dante DiVincenzo good, He's

529
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 2: played well. He's the new spicy one. Yeah, fifteen points,

530
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 2: four usist, three steals, he was active. I mean, they've

531
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: got a couple of guys that they can throw into

532
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 2: blood Ce' spot for a couple of weeks. So which

533
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 2: shouldn't have broken leg take a little long.

534
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 4: Must be a very minor fracture.

535
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 5: They ran into each other, I think, didn't they on

536
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 5: that play?

537
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: Did it?

538
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

539
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 4: Weird and you got like Giannis is basically your point guard. Anyway,

540
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,959
Speaker 4: Middleton handle the ball if they need to, Yeah.

541
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: That'll be fine. It looks like Dante di Vincenzo took

542
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 1: on the Jannistetokunpo workout plan like he is. He's got

543
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 1: bigger from year one to year two. He looks tick.

544
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: And even you know the fact that Chris Midleton was

545
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: out earlier this season, they didn't skip a beat. They're

546
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: not going to skip a beat. No chance, they're too good,

547
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: uh Lee Winter.

548
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 5: The weekend team that we are probably not going to

549
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 5: talk a whole lot about this season, but in the

550
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 5: next couple of years we might is the Memphis Grizzlies.

551
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 5: They went one on one over the weekend. You mentioned

552
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 5: already they lost to the Bucks at home. But overlooking

553
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 5: that game, Jaron Jackson nine for fifteen from downtown, forty

554
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 5: three points in a loss, of course. But you know,

555
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 5: when you watch the Cruzzes, I've noticed he's been taking

556
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 5: a few more threes this year. He's shooting forty on

557
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 5: six attempts a game. That's pretty good because that's not

558
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 5: a pretty shot.

559
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 4: That is a weird shot.

560
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 5: It works release, and he feels confident like he steps

561
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 5: into a shooting You're like, now he's six to eleven. He

562
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 5: is a power fort he only gets four rebounds. Again,

563
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,120
Speaker 5: that's that's a bit of a concern there for your

564
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,159
Speaker 5: for your power forward, you know. And he hasn't improved

565
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 5: that from year one to year two. So it's great.

566
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 5: The ship three pointers is working there, But if you're

567
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 5: that big and that athletic, you'd like to see him

568
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 5: at least doubling his rebound count there, so he's got

569
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 5: something to work on there. Jay Moran, we know he's good.

570
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 5: He sat out again. Well see it again, what did

571
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 5: I say, Jay Jamaran? We know, we know he's good, but.

572
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: But I put it on your notes as Jah.

573
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 5: We know he's good, but he sat out again for

574
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 5: Rest this week because again he throws his body into everything.

575
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 5: Brandon Clark the Canadian off the bench.

576
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 4: She's going to see why don't we start singing all Canada?

577
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, well just let me finish.

578
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: Let me finish.

579
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 5: Brandon Clark had a great game twenty five and four

580
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 5: off the bench in Saturday's game win over the Washington Wizards.

581
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 5: And also Dylan Brooks, don't call me marsh On. He's

582
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 5: been fantastic for the Grizzlies this year. So again they're

583
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 5: not totally out of the playoff race this Yearly they

584
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 5: can if they can string a couple together, they could

585
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 5: be in that race for eighth or seventh because there's

586
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 5: a couple of teams Phoenix and Memphis, who you know,

587
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 5: I'm not sure if they can hang on to their

588
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 5: spots there. But if you look at what this Memphis

589
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 5: Grizzlies roster is, right, now I think that's that there's

590
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 5: a lot of hope and a lot of optimis in

591
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 5: a nice looking piece. Exactly agree with you there.

592
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 4: They think they got like another steal of the draft

593
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 4: in Brandon Clark.

594
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure.

595
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 4: Then like you said, Jah, and then Brooks is a

596
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 4: shooter and gives you some defense, and then Jaron Jackson

597
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 4: Junior can get fire the piece.

598
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: So he's just got to stop fouling. Yeah, his files

599
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 2: have gone up, which is why his minutes have not

600
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 2: gone up very much. That's his His biggest weakness is

601
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 2: that guy just hacks people. So when he's able to

602
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 2: stay on the court, he's awesome. People compare him to

603
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 2: Tim Duncan, to Kevin Garnett. Maybe he ends up a

604
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,679
Speaker 2: little bit more like Al Horford because he seems to

605
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 2: be a team first guy. You're talking Clark right now, No,

606
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 2: I'm talking I'm talking about Jared Jackson Junior. Oh yeah,

607
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: So I don't know. He's an impressive talent.

608
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, like I say, forty twos and then

609
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 5: forty percent on threes, Like he's hey, man, it works,

610
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 5: go for it. But uh yeah, you got you gotta

611
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 5: feel that if things develop Eeter Memphis. They're gonna be

612
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 5: a decent team in a couple of years time.

613
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: Yeah. The only real headlines the Bucks were making this

614
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: weekend was during that Grizzlies game Whereupo was sitting on

615
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: the bench and Jared Jackson Junior was going off and

616
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 1: he said, I gotta go guard this guy. I gotta

617
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 1: go do something. And and the fact that he went

618
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 1: at Bruno Koboklo in this game and that he had revenge.

619
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: He had this game circled on his calendar. That was

620
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: That was an article on the Athletic that he had

621
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: this game circled on his calendar because Bruno Koboclo talked

622
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: a little junk to him in the World Cup this

623
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: summer when Greece played Brazil and he dunked on his

624
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: head and he said, dunked on your head in this game.

625
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: He yelled at him and he had thirty seven.

626
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,719
Speaker 5: The people Leo get Janis angry, Mike Dunleavy, Ju and Bruno.

627
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 5: That's some.

628
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 4: That's some like Jordan level sort of pettiness, like memory, yeah,

629
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 4: like it's not that crazy man, but he's like, oh yeah,

630
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna kill him, man, He's like,

631
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,399
Speaker 4: all right, that's why you're amazing.

632
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 2: Got the tech for two thousand dollars. Fine, he said,

633
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 2: I'm a new dad. That's gonna be four months worth

634
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: of diapers. So now he's gonna have to dunk on

635
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 2: Bruno Kabok logain. He has cost my kid diapers.

636
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,159
Speaker 4: Basically, all right, a couple a couple more winners that

637
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 4: you got.

638
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 1: Tests squeezing Damar DeRozan here because we talked about him

639
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 1: on Thursday when he was playing the Cleveland Cavaliers. Fourteen

640
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: seconds left, Spurs up three tomorrow at the line with

641
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: a chance to ice it. Clank, clank, He missed both.

642
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: Kas went on to win that game in overtime. Saturday

643
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 1: in Mexico City versus the Suns, looking like it could

644
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: be the same thing, he hid incredible and one shot

645
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 1: to tie the game. Seven seconds left in ot free

646
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 1: throw to put the Spurs ahead and probably seal it.

647
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 1: He missed it, but the Spurs fought for it, ball

648
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: went out of bounds, they retained it and Paddy Mills

649
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: hit a game winner. So Damar escapes the criticism of

650
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 1: missing a lot of free throws and costing the Spurs

651
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: another victory. Because Paddy Mills made up for it, or

652
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 1: else we probably would have been talking about him in

653
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: a future segment of this show called a Loser, So

654
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: good for him. The Spurs four overtime games in a

655
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: row has never happened in NBA history.

656
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 5: That free throw he missed, though, was like the other

657
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 5: two that he missed it. It just lays them shorts crazy.

658
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, yeah, it's in his head.

659
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 5: And then Patty saved his backside, beautiful shot.

660
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 4: They got some pretty entertaining games down there in Mexico City.

661
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 4: Both of those games was of the MAVs Pistons right

662
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 4: a couple of days earlier, and then that one between

663
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 4: the Spurs and the Suns going to overtime. Great games.

664
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 4: I'd like to give a little mini winner of the

665
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 4: weekend to the Denver Nuggets, all right. They picked up

666
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 4: back to back wins, improved to seventeen and eight overall,

667
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 4: tied for third in the West. The Nuggets are, i know,

668
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 4: defeated OKC on Saturday one ten, one two. Then they

669
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 4: beat the Knicks on Sunday by six. Jokic, though, the joker,

670
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 4: he's breaking out a little bit out of that little

671
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 4: mini slump that he had going. He had a huge

672
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 4: game versus Okay, see twenty eight, fourteen, and twelve. He

673
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 4: got the WOA boy for the first time this year

674
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 4: for him and his fourth triple double. You know, you

675
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 4: just hear the Nuggets talk about Yo Kic after the game,

676
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 4: like Gary Harris was quoted as saying, when he is aggressive,

677
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 4: it just opens up everything for everybody else. He's that important,

678
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 4: no doubt. Versus the Knicks, he sort of took over

679
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 4: that when he scored eleven of his twenty five in

680
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 4: the fourth corps. He hit some big shots. So both

681
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 4: of these wins again, okay, see in the next I

682
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 4: get it not the greatest competition in the world, but

683
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 4: he got it going a little bit. And this was

684
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 4: without Paul millsapp who missed both these games because he

685
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 4: left Thursday Night's game with a Ray Quadris ship strain.

686
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 4: So good on the Nuggets again, maybe a little sort

687
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 4: of bounce back here, especially for Sally.

688
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 5: For the Joker, well, they'd last five or six going

689
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 5: into that, yeah, three game home track, So and it

690
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 5: was and I think I talked about last week's starting

691
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 5: to get a little concerned about them, And so their

692
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 5: last three wins have being Portland Oka, say in New York.

693
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 5: But that's what they have to do to get those wins,

694
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 5: get back on track and get Jokich just to show

695
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 5: a little more enthusiasm to be out on the court.

696
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 5: And I think he definitely has shown that.

697
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 4: It's some funny highlights too that gets over the weekend. Yeah,

698
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 4: like yeah, Joel Murray going off the backboard to himself. Yeah,

699
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 4: very very nice, and he was stuck. It was a

700
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 4: perfect play and finish it. You had Will Barton going

701
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 4: off Jokicic's back on Sunday because he got caught. I know,

702
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 4: he's a perfect big old target hit off it, but

703
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 4: ball just drops off that back and then they ended

704
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 4: up the ball found its way to Jamal Murray hit

705
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 4: like a step back three and the Yokic had some

706
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 4: crazy plays too. It's just a wild, entertaining Nuggets weekend.

707
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 2: I felt like he was spinning a lot. I felt

708
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 2: like there's so many Jokics post moves where he was spinning,

709
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: which was good to see. When people talk about him

710
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 2: being aggressive, it's the things like running down to the

711
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: block as fast as you can, beating guys down the

712
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: court on a fast break, and just setting up under

713
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,440
Speaker 2: the hoop. He's got that big old back.

714
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,479
Speaker 1: Use it. I saw Rebecca Harlow, Knick's reporter, tweet this

715
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 1: before Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets in Denver, where

716
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: the altitude is tough. She tweeted, Knicks have added beat

717
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: juice to combat altitude. Here's why. Drinking beatroot juice c

718
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: increases plasma nitrate levels and boost physical performance the more

719
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,400
Speaker 1: you know. So people in the fourth quarter when the

720
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: Knicks were up over the Nuggets, oh, it's working. The

721
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 1: beat juices working and to do it and they almost

722
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: won thanks to that beat juice.

723
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 4: That was a close cape big beat juice fans here,

724
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 4: I do love a beat Yeah?

725
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like juice.

726
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 4: Yeah you like the juice? Or do you like eating beans?

727
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah.

728
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 5: So you know Australia we put beats beat roots on hamburgers.

729
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, burger.

730
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 5: It was a great joke too. What's the difference between

731
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 5: a beetroot and an egg?

732
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 4: I don't know.

733
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 5: You can beat an egg, but you can't be a.

734
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 6: Roots because root has a differences.

735
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: You know what, JD do you want to take that back?

736
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: Wasn't it a good joke?

737
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 2: It was better it was fine, all right.

738
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: So those are you can't you can't beat it.

739
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 5: You can't the best thing.

740
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm getting my my sexual dictionary run.

741
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 4: It's just having sceps.

742
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't beat it.

743
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:00,040
Speaker 4: Okay, those are.

744
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 1: Okay, you can bet.

745
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 5: Well that's a dry one.

746
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:06,320

Speaker 4: Right, let's go to bed time for losers of the

768
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: NBA weekend. There is an obvious one. We had slipped

769
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 4: it in there early. You did when we were talking

770
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:26,239
Speaker 4: about the bucks upcoming schedule. Task got it has to

771
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 4: be the unfortunate news with Luka Doncic.

772
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: It is for sure. He went down with that ankle

773
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: injury early Saturday night against the Miami Heat, very very early.

774
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: I was impressed. So I was watching the Mavericks broadcasts

775
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: of this game live. I thought Mark followed Derek, Derek

776
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: Harper and Jeff Skinwade did a great job of not

777
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: crying on the broadcaster. I mean, that's their season. If

778
00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 1: he goes down with an injury, he left, he limped off,

779
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 1: although Jeff Skinway during commercials he did tweet kill me

780
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: and then with Luca ankle turn, I've lost my passion

781
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: for sports too extreme. No, I don't think that's too extreme.

782
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 1: But on the broadcast they were quite professional. And it's

783
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: only two weeks. Hopefully it is an ankle injury. Doesn't

784
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: seem the X rays or negatives. It doesn't seem like

785
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 1: anything else is affected. No knee injury, nothing upwards, no

786
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: evulsion happening there. NBA TV obviously suffers because the Bucks

787
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,240
Speaker 1: looking to win their nineteenth straight Monday Night. As you mentioned,

788
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: Lee against the Mavericks. But the Bucks can't take the

789
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 1: mass lightly. Mass fought back hard in this game without

790
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: Luca against the Miami Heat on Saturday, and they'll give

791
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 1: the Bucks a little run on Monday Night. They've got

792
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: an next man up mentality. As they say in the

793
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: sports world.

794
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,919
Speaker 4: They got great point guards off the bench. I mean,

795
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 4: I mean there is delon right, and then there's brunting

796
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 4: and then JJ if you get some burn like, yeah,

797
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 4: they're gonna be They're gonna need like Porzingis to really

798
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 4: start catching fire here. You're gonna have to be the

799
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 4: leader of the team without Luca, Tim Hardway Junior is.

800
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 5: Gonna have to keep knocking out I posing gets in

801
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 5: that role. Maybe yeah, gets a chance it gets a chance.

802
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 4: I mean their schedule it's crazy tough though here for

803
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 4: like this what you said, it's in Milwaukee tonight, then

804
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 4: they're at home to Boston, then they're on the road

805
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,879
Speaker 4: in Philly, then they're on the road in Toronto. I mean,

806
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 4: it's like and if you include the heat loss, the

807
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 4: overtime loss where they did fight and made it close,

808
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 4: that's like five of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.

809
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 4: That is the five best teams in the Eastern Conference.

810
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be easy. That would not gonna be

811
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,439
Speaker 4: easy with Luca or without Luca. But you're right, maybe

812
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 4: we see something different here from KP.

813
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 5: If it is only two weeks, then that certainly doesn't

814
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,480
Speaker 5: correlate with what the eye test showed when it actually happened,

815
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 5: or it looked worse.

816
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,880
Speaker 4: It looked high, right, yeah, he grabbed higher. Yeah that

817
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 4: is never good.

818
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

819
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 5: So but if it is only two we'll we'll take that,

820
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 5: I think as NBA fans.

821
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 4: Fair enough, all right, who else you got for loser

822
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 4: of the weekend?

823
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 5: Well, I'm going with Unfortunately, the New Orleans Pelicans. I

824
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 5: think the Wheels have finally come off twelve in a

825
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 5: row losses. That is, Alvin Gentry got thrown out yesterday

826
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 5: in the lost at home to the Orlando Magic, and

827
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 5: obviously the season got off to a rockie start there

828
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 5: was Zion out, but that doesn't really save them from

829
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,320
Speaker 5: the fact that they just look awful at both ends

830
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 5: right now. And you know whatever, you know, there was

831
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 5: a lot of hope coming into maybe Lonzo Ball and

832
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 5: Brandon Ingram's been good and a few of these other

833
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 5: guys might just have a good season and be able

834
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 5: to keep them afloat while Zion was out, but that

835
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 5: is not the case. The Pelicans are now just I

836
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 5: mean second worst record.

837
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,800
Speaker 4: Is it? Six and twenty one? Yeah, it is weird

838
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 4: to see like the worst teams in the league and

839
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 4: you're like, okay, the Warriors, yeah, they're missing everybody. Okay,

840
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,399
Speaker 4: the Knicks, Yeah they're the Knicks. And then you're like, well,

841
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 4: Pelicans are six and twenty one. It's like, what's going

842
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,919
Speaker 4: on there? And they're starting to bet me the Cards

843
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 4: are bad too.

844
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 5: But in sort of the speculation about Alvin Gentry's job again,

845
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 5: I think he survives this season. I think because he

846
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 5: has some history there with Dave Griffin as well. From

847
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,399
Speaker 5: their Phoenix days, and I think, you know, he has

848
00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 5: that little built in excuse there of losing Zion and

849
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 5: maybe we see Zion, maybe you don't. But really it's

850
00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 5: gone a lot worse than they could have possibly imagined

851
00:36:58,640 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 5: when Zion went down.

852
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,760
Speaker 4: And the real question is does this have any effect

853
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 4: on Zion really truly coming.

854
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 5: I think it does.

855
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, they say it doesn't. Griff is basically on record

856
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 4: saying he's he's going to play. Yeah, He's gonna come

857
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 4: back and play.

858
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 2: I imagine it would be worse for Alvin Gentry if

859
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: Zion never comes back, because if he comes back, maybe

860
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 2: then he at least gets a chance to run out

861
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 2: the sort of full squad of the Pelicans and at

862
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 2: least see what's happening with Zion in the lineup. But

863
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 2: if they decide, yeah, we're gonna set him down, we'll

864
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 2: bring him back next year, I could see him moving

865
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,800
Speaker 2: on from Alvin Gentry during the season because the results

866
00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 2: haven't been there. They've had one five hundred season since

867
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 2: he took over, and he was kind of the most

868
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 2: sought after coach when that happened. Yeah, there is history

869
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 2: between Griff and Gentry from Phoenix but GM's also like

870
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 2: to put their own guy there, and Gentry's not his

871
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 2: guy right right now?

872
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Pelicans, that's tough. One tough, tough season so

873
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 4: far for the Pelicans fans. Who you got Trey Dion

874
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:58,760
Speaker 4: Waiters a boy? He just was a nominee for Worse.

875
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 2: Worst of the Week Friday, he was suspended. The Heat

876
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 2: said it was for failure to adhere to team policies,

877
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,439
Speaker 2: violation of team rules and continued in subordination. Okay, we said,

878
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 2: doesn't sound good. We'll see what happens. We found out

879
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,880
Speaker 2: what it was. Ethan Skolnik of The Five Reasons Sports

880
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 2: Network reported that a large part of the reason Dion

881
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 2: Waiters was suspended was because he posted a picture of

882
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 2: himself on Instagram on a boat when he was supposed

883
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 2: to be sick. Come on, buddy, if you've ever skipped anything,

884
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 2: the first rule of skipping things leave your phone alone.

885
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:30,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

886
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 2: Remember the time we went to Canada's Wonderland. Everybody agreed,

887
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 2: we're taking time, We're taking a day off. Everybody leave

888
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 2: your phone in the car. Our friend Daryl said, I

889
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 2: gotta bring my phone. Stayed off his phone, but he

890
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 2: needed to be able to answer some emails, and then

891
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 2: we went to the top of the Leviathan and the

892
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,720
Speaker 2: phone slipped from his pocket and crashed to the ground,

893
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 2: unveiling the ruse of skipping work. You cannot take your

894
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 2: phone with you if you're going to be out on

895
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 2: a boat party in when you're supposed to be sick.

896
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 2: That being said, this is now three suspensions for Dion Waiters,

897
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 2: zero games played, and two of them have come on

898
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: forms of transportation. So JD please give me the top

899
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 2: five music, top five.

900
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 7: Top five, top five, top five, top five, top five,

901
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 7: top five, top five, Top five, top five, top five,

902
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:27,319
Speaker 7: top five.

903
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:32,839
Speaker 2: These are your top five Dion Waiters transportation suspensions. At

904
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 2: number five, he was fake sick on a boat. Maybe

905
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 2: he was real seasick.

906
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: I don't know.

907
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 2: I assumed he was sick before he went to the boat.

908
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 2: Number four, Gummy's on a plane. A tough one who

909
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 2: hasn't freaked out having gummies on a plane, So let's

910
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 2: finish out the top five. At number three, gets into

911
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 2: a skirmish on a train. Maybe the conductor says, let

912
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 2: me see your ticket. He doesn't have a ticket. Next

913
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 2: thing you know, he's fighting with this guy somebody blasted

914
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 2: on Instagram. Doesn't look good for the Heat. Doesn't look

915
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 2: good for Dion Waiters and number so too sprains his

916
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 2: ankle falling off an electric scooter. Shout out to Monte

917
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 2: Ellis that once happened to him. But the number one

918
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 2: reason Dion Waiers would be suspended for some mode of

919
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 2: transportation farting a car on a road trip terrible.

920
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 5: And denying it or running up to it either way, Yeah, yeah, but.

921
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 2: It's not good for Dion Waiders. The Heat are now

922
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 2: apparently doing whatever they can to get rid of him,

923
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 2: and might just be waving him because according to Ethan Skulnick,

924
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 2: there is zero interest in trading for Dion Waiers. Zip.

925
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: The quote was, zip, that's what NBA teams think of

926
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 2: Dion Waiders. At this point, he might be done. We

927
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 2: might never see Dan Waiders on the quarter.

928
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 5: Wow, what a waste of talent.

929
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 4: I'd be wild. I just remember jer Smith is still

930
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 4: sort of I guess out there too. It's like if

931
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 4: jer Smith isn't going anywhere, I mean, like are people

932
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 4: I guess what I was thinking. Would teams actually want

933
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:55,879
Speaker 4: j R. Smith more than.

934
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: Dion Waiters probably.

935
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, yeah, I think they might too. Think that's rough.

936
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: He's got the touch of championship success with Lebron James,

937
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: so he's got that going for him. I do like

938
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: the fact that Instagram sleuthing proved fruitful, though, you know,

939
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: because it feels good to go on Instagram and try

940
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 1: and figure things out. I do enjoy that process, so

941
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: it kind of feels it feels like it was rewarded.

942
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he's he's put his account private now. I

943
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 5: can't find the fight allegedly put up.

944
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, he apparently wiped it. But I was like you,

945
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 2: I was going, I was trying to search everything I

946
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 2: can to findon Waiders on a boat, and there are

947
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 2: so many pictures of Dion Waiders hanging out on a boat,

948
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 2: but none specifically for this one. I guess he does

949
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,560
Speaker 2: live in Miami Sea. The boats are plentiful out there.

950
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 5: I believe someone didn't just screencap it though, and NBA

951
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 5: read it.

952
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: Let's check it.

953
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 2: Throw a hashtag TVT on that they'll be like, oh,

954
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 2: this must have been.

955
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 4: Two weeks ago. That's a nice workaround. Just always hashtag TVT.

956
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 4: What are you talking about? That wasn't I had a

957
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 4: transportation mishap with an electric scooter last night. Yeah, because,

958
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 4: as I said, I was down at the house game,

959
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 4: you know the game. Let's out. There's thousands of people

960
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 4: trying to get sometimes an Uber or a left home.

961
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 4: I mean I had taken the Marta, I had taken

962
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 4: the subway there. I was like, I didn't want to

963
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 4: take it back. I was like, okay, I'll probably grab

964
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 4: like a ride sharing service. But it's packed, like it's

965
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 4: just a madness, right, so you're gonna be there.

966
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 1: For so long.

967
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 4: So I was like, huh, let me just jump on

968
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 4: a scooter. It was a nice night, it was a

969
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 4: balmy night. I'll do that. I've done that before. So

970
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 4: I took the I took the Uber version of the scooter,

971
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 4: the Jump. There's obviously like five different services here in Atlanta.

972
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 1: At least you.

973
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,919
Speaker 4: Got the Birds and you got the Limes or whatever.

974
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 4: I took the Jump one from Uber. So I take it.

975
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 4: No problem, great ride get home. There's no one on

976
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 4: the street once I got over to that like our

977
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 4: neck of the woods, so it was perfect. I get

978
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 4: to my gate and you know, I go to lock it,

979
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 4: I get off it. I put the kickstand up, but

980
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,880
Speaker 4: my phone, my app won't let me lock the bike.

981
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 4: So I'm like, what the hell do I do now?

982
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 4: So I like what I should have done? Because I

983
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 4: thought it. I was like, well, all right, maybe I

984
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 4: should bring it into my property behind the gate, because

985
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 4: at the very lease, if it doesn't walk, it's there

986
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,280
Speaker 4: maybe and it's less likely to be used. I was like, Oh,

987
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 4: in my head, I was like, it'll probably just lock

988
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 4: a minute or two after no one's on it. I

989
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 4: just thought that for some reason, So I leave it.

990
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 4: Flash forward to this morning. Check my email, hope you

991
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 4: enjoyed your Jump East scooter ride. Your fee fifty five dollars.

992
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,439
Speaker 4: So I click it. Oh, oh crap. What I thought

993
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,479
Speaker 4: was gonna happen happened because I left it outside the gate.

994
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 4: Someone I don't know how long after I got off it,

995
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 4: but someone jumped on it. And you could see the map,

996
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 4: like you could see my ride to home, and then

997
00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 4: you could see this ride that this guy or woman

998
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 4: whoever had this ride, maybe it was multiple people. They

999
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,839
Speaker 4: took it everywhere in Atlanta. Fifty five bucks. That's a lot.

1000
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 4: Put some crazy miles on this thing. And and so

1001
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 4: I wrote them no problem, I wrote Uber, I said, look,

1002
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,840
Speaker 4: I couldn't lock the damn thing, so someone obviously jumped

1003
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 4: on it because the light stays on it too, so

1004
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 4: it's probably more like someone walking by. It's like, okay,

1005
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 4: don't jump, like right for you're right anyway, got the

1006
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 4: money back? Cool story, bro, But quite the mishap.

1007
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 5: Wasn't it?

1008
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 1: When you write the jump with a troubleshooting issue? Does

1009
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,880
Speaker 1: Rachel Nichols Shout out to.

1010
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 4: Ra Well played, all right, I've got a few loser

1011
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,359
Speaker 4: of the weekend, so it's just some mini ones here,

1012
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,280
Speaker 4: hornets bulls. You see that final score from the weekend

1013
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:35,239
Speaker 4: eighty three to seventy three. We were out on Friday night.

1014
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 4: I was with Trey. We're at a friend's house. Shout

1015
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 4: out to Larry Luke seeing his little Leo had a

1016
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:43,720
Speaker 4: new board son and we were coming back from his house.

1017
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 4: You know, it wasn't super late, but I'm like checking

1018
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 4: the scores and I'm like, what the hell? Three three

1019
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 4: says final score. I was like, there's no way that

1020
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 4: can be true. I was like, that's gotta be you know,

1021
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 4: sometimes the app doesn't work. I think I was on

1022
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 4: the score app. Shout out to the score app shout

1023
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 4: out to Joe Ross, and it wasn't.

1024
00:44:59,239 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: He doesn't work there.

1025
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 4: Oh okay, well he appreciates that show.

1026
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: Listen. That's why the score messed up because he doesn't

1027
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 1: want to. Yeah.

1028
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,399
Speaker 4: Well, anyway, it wasn't. It was right, It wasn't the score.

1029
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 4: It wasn't NBA's app. It was totally fine. It was

1030
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 4: eighty three to seventy three. That was the lowest offensive

1031
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 4: output of the season for both teams. Obviously, the Bulls

1032
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,439
Speaker 4: was the lowest of the NBA season, seventy three points.

1033
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 4: Charlotte shot thirty eight percent from the floor and the

1034
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 4: Bulls were even worse. They shot thirty percent. And then,

1035
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 4: oh my god, Boylan was trying to spin it after

1036
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,400
Speaker 4: the game. Guy, we were working on some things.

1037
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,720
Speaker 2: Defense was pretty good out there, the defense.

1038
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,239
Speaker 4: I laughed so hard at this quote from BEYONMBO, though

1039
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 4: I think he said it with a straight face. We

1040
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 4: had probably one of our best rebounding games. No, it did,

1041
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 4: because there was a million misses. Somebody had to grab

1042
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 4: boards and a bunch of them. Oh my god. So

1043
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,800
Speaker 4: that was just brutal. But kudos to the Bulls for

1044
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 4: bouncing back on Saturday against the Clippers. They did get

1045
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 4: a nice win there.

1046
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 2: So yeah, and kudos to the Golden State Warriors for

1047
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 2: scoring seventy nine points on Sunday, so it doesn't necessarily

1048
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 2: look as bad. But man, seventy three, what year is this?

1049
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:06,360
Speaker 5: Vin had forty nine himself the last time these two.

1050
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 4: Tough something else. To see a score like that, right

1051
00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 4: in twenty nineteen, that is like, I mean, I was

1052
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 4: tweeting about it, and people were joking like, what is this,

1053
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:18,359
Speaker 4: you know, nineteen ninety four bulls Nick's going on here?

1054
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 4: Like pat Riley must be loving this type of thing.

1055
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,280
Speaker 4: It's funny, said the Warriors. My other loser of the weekend,

1056
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 4: Draymond Green now coming in here. I was convinced that

1057
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 4: Kevin Knox was going to have like the whoopsie of

1058
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 4: the weekend. Remember those guys, remember the whoopsies on the weekend?

1059
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Kevin Knox basically dunked on his own net

1060
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 4: by by accent. He's going for the rebound, but it

1061
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 4: looked funny. It looked like he literally just threw it

1062
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 4: back home. But Draymond Green won up to him. Green

1063
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 4: threw an alley oop off the backboard to No.

1064
00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 2: One No.

1065
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 4: One on Sunday second quarter. He had the ball on

1066
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 4: the break. He really should have attacked the rim. I

1067
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 4: mean it was Corey Joseph trying to get back. Green

1068
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,440
Speaker 4: had a layup. I mean, he could have gone in,

1069
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 4: but for some reason he decides to go like pure

1070
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 4: house of highlights here and he just chucks the ball

1071
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 4: off the backboard too. I guess his trailing teammate, Glenn

1072
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 4: Robinson the third. I mean, he's the closest. He sort

1073
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 4: of jumps, but it's nowhere near him and there's like

1074
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 4: two other guys in the way.

1075
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would have been I mean, it would have

1076
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: been an all time highlight off. Somehow Glenn Robinson got

1077
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 2: over both of those guys for the dunk. But uh,

1078
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 2: I felt like Draymond had about two steps. Yeah on

1079
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 2: the defenders. He did get a layup.

1080
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 4: He did he did? I mean, yeah, maybe he saw

1081
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 4: like out of the corner of his eyes, like that's

1082
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 4: Glenn Robinson the third. That's a that's a Slam dunk

1083
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 4: champion winner right there.

1084
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 2: All he did in the dunk contest was dunk over.

1085
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, that's right. I think that's what he thought.

1086
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 1: He did.

1087
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 5: Make cast of highlights.

1088
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 4: Still, Yes, that's true, that's true.

1089
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,240
Speaker 5: You get on there, whether it's super cool or super awful,

1090
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 5: you got on the super or this time.

1091
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 4: Kings crushed the Warriors one seventy nine. Yeah, despite Sacramento

1092
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 4: turning the ball over twenty nine times and they still

1093
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 4: won one hundred to seventy nine. What was going on

1094
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,600
Speaker 4: this weekend? But Draymond Man, I was just that is

1095
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 4: a guy we have not talked about at all. He's

1096
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 4: averaging nine six and six. He's shooting forty one percent

1097
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,800
Speaker 4: from the floor in twenty six point five percent from three.

1098
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 4: I mean, look, there's a reason, of course where we're

1099
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 4: not talking about him at all, but wow.

1100
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 7: But he is.

1101
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 5: Did he get that extension.

1102
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:25,879
Speaker 1: He did?

1103
00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1104
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Okay, he got paid.

1105
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 2: Man.

1106
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 5: I know, I know, I know. I thought I thought

1107
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:32,840
Speaker 5: they hadn't agreed it, but yeah.

1108
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 4: Turns out he does need superstars around, yeah, to make

1109
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 4: him look a little bit better. I mean, he's still

1110
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 4: a great player. I would still want him on my team,

1111
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 4: but I mean, yeah, not the situation for him.

1112
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:44,760
Speaker 2: He's a great playmaker when he is the third playmaker

1113
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,359
Speaker 2: on a team, but when they're running him out there,

1114
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 2: sometimes it feels like as point guard. Yeah, that's how

1115
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 2: you're getting seventy nine points. Do you guys think that

1116
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 2: James Harden will outscore the balls at some point? Seventy

1117
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:56,799
Speaker 2: three right now is the low water mark? Seventy nine

1118
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:00,839
Speaker 2: is pretty close, Harden. I mean, is it more likely

1119
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 2: that the team scores fewer than seventy three or that

1120
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 2: Hardened scores more.

1121
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 4: Than hardeneh Yes, Yeah, I think that's more likely.

1122
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 5: I think it's way HoTT at to score less than

1123
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 5: seventy three.

1124
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,919
Speaker 4: Harden just had a weekend or whatever before we get

1125
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,439
Speaker 4: back to backs, you know, yeah, fifty passes. Yeah, put

1126
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 4: me down for a hard and more likely scored seventy

1127
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 4: three or morell that'd be crazy. One hundred percent comments

1128
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 4: The three point you know record for maids in a

1129
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,359
Speaker 4: game is being broken this year. I don't see how

1130
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 4: it can.

1131
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,360
Speaker 5: Ty thumpson fourteen.

1132
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1133
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, like we've had like you were saying, yeah, we've

1134
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,760
Speaker 4: had so many guys at nine, ten, like eleven whatever.

1135
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 4: Feels like every second game somebody's doing that. So there

1136
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 4: are are losers of the weekend again, tweet out his

1137
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:44,440
Speaker 4: hashtag no dunks if we miss one.

1138
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: You brought up quick skeets the Draymond Green he's not

1139
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,240
Speaker 1: doing a lot of scoring. Airic Corene of the Athletic

1140
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: came out with a new stat this weekend. It's called

1141
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 1: the gasol because Marca Sol He's not doing a lot

1142
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,400
Speaker 1: of scoring either, but he impacts the game in a

1143
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 1: heck of a lot of ways. The gosole is when

1144
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 1: a player records at least five boards and five assists

1145
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 1: in the game but shoots four or fewer field goal attempts.

1146
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: It's tougher than you think. Only twelve gosoles have been

1147
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: recorded throughout the league this year. It doesn't happen very often,

1148
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 1: but Draymond Green.

1149
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:14,760
Speaker 4: He's got a couple.

1150
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 1: He is he is the active leader throughout his career

1151
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 1: with twenty three. He's trying to catch Dennis Rodman, who

1152
00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,359
Speaker 1: would be uh, he got from a second all time,

1153
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 1: He's only got thirty four.

1154
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 2: That would get the problem for him.

1155
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess. So who's number one? I don't know.

1156
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 1: I don't know's I probably should have had that right

1157
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 1: and the whole I think it might be Nate McMillan. Wow,

1158
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,959
Speaker 1: really he recorded fifty four career gosoles. Yeah, it looks

1159
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 1: like twenty more than any other player.

1160
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 4: So you're telling me Nate mc millan had fifty four

1161
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:47,920
Speaker 4: games where he had at least five boards, at least

1162
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 4: five was this, but didn't shoot.

1163
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: The ball four times a pointer?

1164
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:52,960
Speaker 4: That's what I mean.

1165
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he wasn't a terrible shooter, right, he's a

1166
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 1: real point g.

1167
00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fascinating. That's a that's a good one.

1168
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah the gasol.

1169
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 4: Let's get to tweet of the night.

1170
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 1: Tweet of the night, Wow, twitt. The tweet of the

1171
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 1: night is essentially the advice Raptors head coach Nick Nurse

1172
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 1: received from the legend Phil Jackson when he took over

1173
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,400
Speaker 1: for Dwayne Casey in the summer of twenty eighteen. That summer,

1174
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,319
Speaker 1: Nurse spent some time with Jackson at Phill's home in Montana.

1175
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:30,760
Speaker 1: So here's a cool story. As transcribed by Chris O'Leary

1176
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:34,920
Speaker 1: of Raptors dot Com, what or how Nick Nurse described

1177
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,680
Speaker 1: his stay in Montana the three days, it was breakfast, lunch,

1178
00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 1: and dinner, then talking late into the night. Finally, on

1179
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,680
Speaker 1: the last dinner, we were sitting in these rock and

1180
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: chairs and outside he says, I want to leave you

1181
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,000
Speaker 1: with two things before you go. So this is Nurse

1182
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 1: reciting Phil's advice for him. The first one he said,

1183
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 1: don't underestimate the basketball gods. You've been hired to make

1184
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:57,320
Speaker 1: the decisions that are best for the team at all times.

1185
00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: The second thing is, I want you to imagine you've

1186
00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: got a sword, one end is sharp, and you're gonna

1187
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 1: have to prod these guys. You're gonna have to get

1188
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 1: get on get on guys' asses. You're gonna have to

1189
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: push them, You're gonna have to make them play. You're

1190
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 1: gonna have to get them to guard. You're gonna have

1191
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 1: to get them to do all that stuff. But every

1192
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,359
Speaker 1: now and then, I want you to turn that sword

1193
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 1: around and look at the handle, and that handle is

1194
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: gonna represent compassion that you understand where they come from

1195
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 1: and what they're going through. It's a good thing to

1196
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: keep in mind. That's a treaty of the night from Chris.

1197
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,879
Speaker 4: The third thing Phil Jackson said was, come on, man, pop,

1198
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,919
Speaker 4: puff pass, let's get it on.

1199
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 2: Turn that sword around on yourself. What are you saying

1200
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:37,880
Speaker 2: to me?

1201
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 4: That's deep? That's deep. So Nurse was there in Montana

1202
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 4: three days.

1203
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:43,480
Speaker 1: I guess, I guess was a little bit of a

1204
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: coach summit.

1205
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:44,920
Speaker 5: That's pretty cool.

1206
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: Hanging out, that's pretty cool. That's pretty cool.

1207
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:48,880
Speaker 2: Sword summit.

1208
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 4: Just another Raptors related little news out of myself from

1209
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 4: the weekend. Serge Ibaka has like a new documentary out

Speaker 4: the NBA be coming a champion and I guess at

1212
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:02,879
Speaker 4: the Q and A, I believe it's.

1213
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 2: Up in Toronto.

1214
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 4: He uh, someone asked him, must have asked him about

1215
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:10,319
Speaker 4: Kawhi's shot, like the four bouncer, and Serge talked about

1216
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 4: how he nearly was like, I never really thought about this,

1217
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 4: but he was like, yeah, I nearly jumped up and

1218
00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:16,880
Speaker 4: was gonna like try and tip it in or I

1219
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 4: would have tried to. And he's like, I sort of

1220
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:20,439
Speaker 4: just didn't, you know, I didn't try.

00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,680
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and you I guess the buzzer was going off,

1224
00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 5: but in that moment you're just like, yeah, once it

1225
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,239
