1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: After months of waiting, finally sports are back in our lives.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 2: And isn't it great?

3
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: Real games, real results, and real meaning behind them. I

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: know what I'm watching too, in the NHL, where the

5
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: Toronto Maple Leafs finally break through and bring Lord Stanley

6
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: back to Hogtown. They well, they probably won't, but I'll

7
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 1: be watching for that anyway. On the baseball diamond hasn't

8
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: been great. Just watch an Aaron Judge for the Yankees.

9
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 2: Sock them dinger.

10
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: So far, that's been fantastic to watch.

11
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: And of course the best.

12
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: League in the world, the NBA down in Orlando in

13
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: the bubble, things have been going.

14
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: Great so far.

15
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: At the end of this will we see a new

16
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: champion where the Lakers break through, whether Bucks win it,

17
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 1: or where the Raptors go back to back, Well, only

18
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: time will tell for those things. But one thing you

Speaker 4: with the bad news because then you get the good

58
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 4: news and then it sets a good, good tone for

59
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 4: the rest of the show. Okay, any other any other

60

Speaker 4: picks out there? What do you guys think? Come on?

61
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 2: Come on?

62
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 6: I always want the good news first. I always want

63
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 6: the good news first. But I feel like I made

64
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 6: the call last time, so I'm happy to hop on

65
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 6: board here.

66
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 3: All right, we're going bad news. Are you awake tonight?

67
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 3: What's going on? I am?

68
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 2: I am all right, am. Yeah, give me the bad news, bros.

69
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 3: Yes. The Grizzlies announced today that forward Jaron Jackson Junior

70
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 3: will miss the rest of the season after tearing his

71
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 3: meniscus against New Orleans on Monday. This is not the

72
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: first time that you know, he's had a knee issue.

73
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: He sprained a knee in February and then missed like

74
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 3: I think it was nine games leading up to the suspension.

75
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 3: Of the season and he was bawling out here down

76
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 3: in the bubble. But Jaren Jackson Jr. Out for the

77
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 3: rest of it. And the Grizzlies we talked about them

78
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: last night. They're already h you know, looking for their

79
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: first w still and he was. I think it's safe

80
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 3: to say it was their best player down here, averaging

81
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: you know, twenty five points per game a little bit

82
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: over that and you know, hitting all those threes. So

83
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 3: a tough blow for not only Triple J but of

84
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 3: course the Grizzlies chances of either holding on to the

85
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 3: eighth or at least getting in the ninth their task.

86
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 3: What do you think of that?

87
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's terrible for him as I just individually as

88
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: the second big injury this season for him taking him

89
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 4: out and sticking with that second theme or that number

90
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 4: two team. He's their number two guy in general, even

91
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 4: though he's their best player so far through three games,

92
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 4: and they're lacking a third best player right now. It's

93
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 4: been a big falloff after Jared Jackson Junior and John

94
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 4: Rant at this point, who is struggling himself a little bit.

95
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 4: So this is horrible for their chances. I didn't think

96
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 4: even before the Jaron Jackson Knews that they were a

97
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 4: favorite in any of their games the rest of the way.

98
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 4: I thought they would be the underdog the rest of

99
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 4: the way, just because of the way they're playing, because

100
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 4: you're playing tough teams in the bubble, and it's not

101
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 4: going to be easy. Stay around for our pick and

102
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 4: payoff at the end of the show because they are

103
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: part of our pick and payoff where they're an underdog,

104
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,119
Speaker 4: whether Jaron Jackson Junior was playing or not. That being said,

105
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 4: still got a shot at making the playoffs because of

106
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 4: all those teams behind them playing against each other. Definitely

107
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 4: a good shot of being in that play in game,

108
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 4: regardless of their record, which I said last night, I

109
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 4: was questioning whether or not they're going to win a game, period.

110
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 4: So this is obviously very very bad news.

111
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 3: What do we think they're gonna do here with the lineup?

112
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 3: Is it as simple as put in good old Canadian

113
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: boy Brandon Clark into the starting lineup, who's been all right,

114
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 3: twelve and six shooting you know, unbelievable percentages down there

115
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 3: in the bubble? Or is it I think it was

116
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 3: Holland ro I saw tweet they're playing Utah you know,

117
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 3: is there a possibility with the way they play because

118
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 3: they're actually, you know, sort of small themselves. Utah, after Gobert,

119
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 3: do they go with a Grayson Allen or a Melton

120
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 3: in there next to Brooks and bump up slow mo

121
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 3: Kyle Anderson to the four lead? What do you think

122
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 3: you know, Taylor Jenkins and the Grizzly should do.

123
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: That's the problem.

124
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: They're very sort of thin at this position, so they

125
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: don't really have an automatic choice in there.

126
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 2: I think you probably go with Brandon.

127
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,039
Speaker 1: Clarke to start with, because he's a bit bigger than

128
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: who's Grayson Allen? You said, yeah, yeah, I mean Grayson Allen.

129
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: He might be able to come out and give you

130
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: some offense and shoot some points for you there. But

131
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: I think defensive lead is a little bit more of

132
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: a presence with Brandon Clarke. But yeah, if you're Tyler

133
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: Jenkins right now, you're like, well, man, I don't know

134
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: how they really replace him, because you know, sometimes it's like, well,

135
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: just bump a few extra minutes to one guy and

136
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: another guy and maybe make up for it. But you know,

137
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: Jaron Jackson was playing so well for them that it

138
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: really just leaves a huge gap for them, and it's

139
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: just such a blow because, you know, after the season

140
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: they've had coming into this bubble, we were all kind

141
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: of hoping that they could end this season on a high,

142
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: get into the into the playoffs, and they still could

143
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: in theory, but from what we've seen from Morant so far,

144
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: it's just not going to happen. I think they're going

145
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: to get overrun here, and this just makes it even

146
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: more difficult for them.

147
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 6: It's just the worst case scenario period for Memphis, right.

148
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 6: They've had such an overachieving season and people are feeling

149
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 6: so optimistic to leave with one of your franchise players

150
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 6: hurt in July or I guess August now at this point,

151
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 6: and the next season is going to be starting in

152
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 6: November or December, depending on when they actually report for campus.

153
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 6: Just that it's a really a double blow, right because

154
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 6: you'll still be recovering at the beginning of next season,

155
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 6: and obviously, as a young player on a young team,

156
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 6: it's basically him and John need to just be playing

157
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 6: together as much as they possibly can. Even if they

158
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 6: were to go oh to eight in the seeding games, right,

159
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 6: they're still playing games that matter at this point, and

160
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 6: that would have been huge. Like we were talking about

161
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 6: development for the Pelicans as well, but uh, I don't know.

162
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 6: It just it's too bad. I would go with Brandon

163
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 6: Clark as well. I think you might as well work

164
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 6: on developing him alongside joh I think the Grizzly look

165
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 6: pretty good when it's Jaron Jaw and Brandon Clark. They're

166
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 6: able to play a little bit faster, so maybe they're

167
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 6: able to find a little bit of magic there with

168
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 6: Clark stepping in.

169
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. I looked it up just because I was curious.

170
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 3: You know how many games did Brandon Clark start in

171
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 3: his rookie year? It was only three. They didn't go, well,

172
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 3: he's got to combine three points in three starts, Yeah,

173
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 3: really odd one. He I think he played three games.

174
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if he got injured in that one

175
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 3: or something happened. And the others, you know, limited minutes too.

176
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 3: It was like twenty and ten. It was actually playing

177
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 3: more minutes when he was coming off the bench, so

178
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 3: that probably means nothing. I'm with you, guys. I think

179
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 3: they just put him in there. You know, they got

180
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 3: to get a w here, and he's your best chance.

181
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 3: I mean, Grayson Allen has hit threes, but I have

182
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 3: a little more confidence maybe in and then just give

183
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: those minutes. Anyway, something got to come off the bench

184
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 3: to Grayson Allen and Milton and keep sort of that consistency.

185
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 3: So we'll see that sucked. Okay, the good news. The

186
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 3: good news, guys, we got another Weggie baby. Here we go.

187
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 3: Kendrick Nunn sticks Weggie number thirty eight on the season

188
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 3: and it was beautiful because we had Harlan on the

189
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 3: call with Reggie. But Harlan really selling the Weggie took

190
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 3: like a what he made a weird sound.

191
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he was suffering the weggie.

192
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, he pretended like he had underwear in between his cheeks.

193
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 4: He was I've got what great great Harley he was

194
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 4: on fire to.

195
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 3: Incredible call great Weggie too. That's you know, that's that's

196
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 3: where you get a lot of them right there there

197
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 3: on the on the on the wing for the three

198
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 3: point between the room and the back where he shot it, man,

199
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 3: where he shot.

200
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 4: It on the angle the angle for sure, like like

201
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 4: Marve likes to call it.

202
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, we'd have to. We have to get somebody

203
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 3: to look like at every wedgy. That's happened where they've

204
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 3: happened the most intrigued. Now it feels like that type

205
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 3: of three is at least three point shots where we

206
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 3: get them the most.

207
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 5: Part Kirk Goldsberry project, for sure. That's holler with that guy.

208
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think, and I think you're doubly as excited Skeetz,

209
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 4: because that's right in view of the camera. So you

210
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 4: have a nice full view of that wedgie. Oh yeah,

211
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 4: as it as it happens.

212
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, there's not a lot of you know,

213
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: manually operated cameras down there with humans operating them, so

214
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: it's a lot of robotics. And they went to a quick,

215
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 3: tight shot of that, well done, TNT right into it,

216
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 3: and you're right, Tess, I think they were helped by

217
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 3: the angle at all. So that was good. So thirty

218
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: eight and tests come on in only twelve to go.

219
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 3: You don't you don't have your little faith in fifty.

220
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 3: I've seen the whole time.

221
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 4: Sure, fifty, let's do it. They've we've had thirty one

222
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 4: games down there already in the bubble. They're flying two edgies.

223
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 4: It's a it's a quick pace. It's a it's a

224
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 4: quick pace. Can they keep it up. Are they? Are

225
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 4: they the Rockets? Can they keep this up? Playing small ball,

226
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 4: playing wedgie ball entire time on there? We'll see, we

227
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 4: will see.

228
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 3: We got a bit of a new segment here tonight.

229
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 3: We're calling it. Read it.

230
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 4: Give me a ten point scale, and I'm like, yeah.

231
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 3: Sure it is a ten. This is an A and

232
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 3: this is a an eight point five.

233
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 4: You know, it's a lot of fun.

234
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 3: I like to rate things, very simple, guys, on a

235
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 3: scale of one to ten. I'm gonna have you rate

236
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 3: things that happened here on a Tuesday in NBA action.

237
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 3: So the first one, let's start with this. It was

238
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 3: beautiful on a scale of one to ten. Le rate

239
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 3: Devin Bookers buzzer beater versus the Clippers.

240
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,320
Speaker 1: Ten being the best of course, Yeah, well if you

241
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: I never know, Look, this one's obviously a ten. I mean,

242
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: a buzzer beating, game winning swish over a challenge a

243
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: title contender in the Clippers has to be a ten.

244
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: But I mean, I just want to talk about the

245
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 1: build up to this, because the Sons had the ball there,

246
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 1: and Devin Booker had the ball, but he passed its

247
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: weight and Ricky Rubio ended up taking a bad shot,

248
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,319
Speaker 1: Zubatz gets the rebound, makes the pass, and then Michael

249
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: Bridges makes an incredible defense. He've played a sort of

250
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: make a loose ball, the Sons get it back, and

251
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: then Devin Booker does what a franchise guy should do.

252
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: Takes a ball and says, right, I'm not passing to anyone.

253
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to go and finish this off, and he

254
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: ends up basically taking at one point almost four of

255
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: those Clippers ends up shooting over the outstretched arm of

256
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: Paul George Kawi. Leonard is there as well, but that's

257
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 1: what a superstar and a franchise guy has to do

258
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 1: in that situation, like say, I'm just going to take

259
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,199
Speaker 1: this shot. It's going to be on my shoulders here.

260
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 1: Obviously if you miss it goes to overtime. So it's

261
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: not like, you know, they would have lost the game.

262
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: But Devin Booker, I look at, you know, watching back

263
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: over this last quarter. He came on with six fifty

264
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: five to go, and they scored twelve points, and of

265
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: those twelve, ten of those points were either a Devin

266
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: Booker basket or an assist. And I thought that was

267
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: one time we've seen because it hasn't been a great

268
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 1: career in terms of team success for Devin Booker so far,

269
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: but that coming down the stretch is again a franchise

270
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: altering player right there taking control. Had a great pick

271
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: and roll with DeAndre Ayton to get a basket, and

272
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: those other ones just went to his spot, that little

273
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: mid ranger and knocked in.

274
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 2: Jumper after jumper after jumper.

275
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: Ricky Rubio was the only other one who scored a basket,

276
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: and that was I think he might have got a

277
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: hockey assist, but that really one wasn't counting, didn't really

278
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: count for Booker. But I thought overall the close out

279
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: this game against the Clippers, who were at full strength

280
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: for what they have in the bubble right now, was

281
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: a very very impressive win.

282
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,599
Speaker 3: The best part maybe being that it came against the

283
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 3: Clippers who now have Joe Kim Noah, who you'll remember

284
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 3: last summer had the infamous clip. They're playing pickup ball

285
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 3: and Noah's out there barking to double team Devin Booker

286
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 3: on the side, and Booker is like, you can't double

287
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 3: team and pick up what is this bull crap? And

288
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 3: Noah's like, of course we can, and then here he

289
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 3: is basically like you said, Lee doubled tripled, actually more

290
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 3: like it and does it over Noah in the clips

291
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 3: and swishes it. I mean, just pure Tray Kirby with

292
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 3: that little feet away and a great celebration too, just

293
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 3: the straight up playing on the ground or lie down.

294
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, Shavasama, I'm not into celebrations, is what he said.

295
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 4: So the guy's got me because I was on the ground,

296
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 4: I had no choice. They came down.

297
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 5: That was awesome.

298
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 6: Iron sharpens iron. I wonder how close it was like

299
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 6: a year to the day from the Joe Kim Noah clip, right,

300
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 6: like was it three.

301
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 5: Hundred and sixty eight days? Who knows? And it just

302
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 5: like came around perfectly.

303
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 6: But I mean, this is an easy ten if only

304
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 6: for it gave us the real, the first real iconic

305
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,959
Speaker 6: action shot from in the Bubble, the picture of Booker

306
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 6: hitting it over Paul George and you can see all

307
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 6: the virtual fans in the background reacting with their hands

308
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 6: up on their head.

309
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 5: How do they already know to react?

310
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 4: Man?

311
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 5: How do they know?

312
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 6: But it looks awesome, right, It's like the first classic

313
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 6: picture I think that we've seen from this And I

314
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 6: don't know that's pretty cool.

315
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 5: It was a great shot. And the Suns. I'm believing

316
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 5: in the Suns a little bit right now. I can't

317
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 5: believe it. I can't believe I'm believing.

318
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, the young Son's still perfect. One of the rare

319
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 3: teams down there, that's still perfect. I think there's only

320
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 3: three now after the Rockets lost the night. It's the Suns.

321
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 3: It's the Pacers and the Raptors and the Raptor or

322
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 3: two and all the other two teams are three and zero. Yeah,

323
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:06,679
Speaker 3: they're still in it. It's still so unlikely because they

324
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 3: were so far back when we started this thing that

325
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: they could get in there and force the Mega Bowl task.

326
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 3: But it is nice to see them picking up these

327
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 3: wins and being a fun watch. And then Booker, you know,

328
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: he was going he was going toe to toe with

329
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 3: Kawhi Leonard here really, like I know they weren't like

330
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 3: guarding each other every single time, but I mean, shot

331
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 3: for shot, the star guy on the teams were hitting

332
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 3: all these buckets down the stretch in this game. But

333
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 3: Booker has done this for three straight now down here

334
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 3: like good scoring games task but within the flow still

335
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 3: of the Suns offense. And then paired with Ayton, who's

336
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 3: played really well and bridges what he's given defensely there

337
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 3: that nucleus nucleus looks great.

338
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder that had to have the toe to

339
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 4: toe that he was going with with Kawhi influenced Kawi's

340
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 4: comment after the game, because Kawi just said, yeah, he

341
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 4: got to his spot. It was a hard shot and

342
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 4: you actually cut him off. You actually did a great

343
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 4: job of being a part of a double team that

344
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 4: really put him into a tough position. But I thought

345
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 4: that whole sequence there was it was almost like a

346
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 4: movie because it almost seemed a little made up the

347
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 4: way Rubio misses it and then Zubats collects the rebound,

348
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 4: but oh no, he makes a bad pass. Michel Bridge

349
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 4: is actually really nice. Yeah, but just as the commentator said,

350
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 4: a little overzealous by a Zubots who played a really

351
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 4: good game, and then Booker with that ridiculous shot, it

352
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 4: definitely seemed like a storybook ending. And yeah, they may

353
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 4: not have a storybook ending here in in Orlando, but yeah,

354
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 4: we mentioned you mentioned the core. We talked about it

355
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 4: last night. Cam Johnson looking really nice, DeAndre and looking

356
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 4: pretty solid, and just like we said about the Grizzlies

357
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 4: eight games in the Bubble, which feels sort of like

358
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 4: playoff games. I don't know if it's like if it's

359
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 4: just me, but it feels like all these games, you know,

360
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 4: especially for those teams down there, are all playoff games,

361
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 4: and so I'm getting a little sweaty watching them. I'm

362
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 4: sure it's good for all these dudes to be playing

363
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 4: in in these games, and yeah, I'm yeah, we've all

364
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 4: sort of ridden the high the wave of the Phoenix,

365
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 4: Suns here they come, type of type of idea. But yeah,

366
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 4: I'm riding it too. It's hard not to. It's hard

367
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 4: not to when when they go three and oer like this.

368
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 4: But yeah, there's just there's so many fricking teams and

369
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 4: so yeah, the only team I think you can really

370
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 4: count out are the Kings, uh, but the Blazer, Spurs

371
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 4: and Pels are still alive, and so yeah, you know,

372
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 4: they've shut us all up at very least. I don't

373
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 4: know if that was part of their motto coming into

374
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 4: the Bottle Bubble, but I'm sure they heard all the

375
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 4: talk about out there saying, hey, Wizards should not be there,

376
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 4: Suns should not be there. But I don't know is

377
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 4: this this is the best three game stretch of their season.

378
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 3: I'm sure one hundred percent, especially when you cap it

379
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: off with a Booker game winner. Yeah, that was that.

380
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 3: It was a great shot, And you're right, I think

381
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 3: that's true. It's like the first sort of iconic moment,

382
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 3: at least in terms of one shot here from the bubble.

383
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 3: With all of the photos and stuff like that. That's

384
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 3: one thing I'll say I've been enjoying about the bubble

385
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 3: life down here. These games, the Getty images, they're beautiful.

386
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 3: The lighting is fantastic because the lighting from arena and

387
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 3: arena changes. Some are great, some are poop, and these

388
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,920
Speaker 3: are just consistent. It looks three arenas as it is,

389
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 3: and they all look the same. Like I don't know

390
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: about you, guys, I can't tell ever what arena they're

391
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 3: playing in. They look identical right like on the broadcast.

392
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 3: I know. I'm sure there are little small things that

393
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 3: someone's gonna point out in the comments, but it's like,

394
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't know, are they in the Visa

395
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 3: Athletic Center is HP. I don't know where they are.

396
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 3: They look identical to me.

397
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 2: This is not a Cox Pavilion.

398
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 1: Thomas mac Thomas and mac no you can you can

399
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: tell the difference in those days these ones. It doesn't matter,

400
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 1: no one, it doesn't you know, because no one has

401
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: an advantage, so it doesn't matter.

402
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 2: They look great, which is good.

403
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 5: Yeah.

404
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 4: I do think the virtual fans there were upset with

405
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 4: the turnover, the giveaway, and that's why the hands.

406
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 3: That's what I think too, tests Yeah, because they're on

407
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 3: like the tiniest of delay, and I think they are

408
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 3: reacting as a clip, Oh, zoobots, what are you doing?

409
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 3: And then it's and then it sort of times up

410
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 3: well with Booker, or.

411
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 6: They are pre recorded, and that's why every arena looks

412
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 6: the same, and that's how the fans knew.

413
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 4: I don't know, yeah, just I mean it's a it's

414
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 4: a high intensity moment. Just throw up the video or

415
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 4: fans have hands on.

416
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: There exactly the well, well, the book and Noah exchange

417
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: was actually fifty weeks ago, apparently today.

418
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: It was August nineteen last year.

419
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: And someone's actually got the transcript. I'm just going to

420
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 1: quickly read it here because it's Booker. It's a broke

421
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: We're not doubling an open gym, bro Noah. Yeah, we

422
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: are I get that all season.

423
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: Bro. Come on, Noah, yeah, we are Booker.

424
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: Let's work in our game, bro. Noah, Yeah, we are Booker.

425
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: That's working our game. Noah, it's part of our game.

426
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: Booker running a double and open gym. Noah, yep, I

427
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: mean this is.

428
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 3: The best part. Noah actually helped Booker with this, uh

429
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 3: this game because it was doubled. It's like, thank you, man,

430
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 3: really appreciate it. That's a in exchange. Thank you for that.

431
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,679
Speaker 3: There Ley. All right, Our next one, TJ Warren with

432
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 3: another solid nights which when it came to shooting the ball,

433
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 3: very high field goal percentage once again. So rate this

434
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 3: out of ten, Trey. We'll go to you here first.

435
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 3: TJ Warren chances of winning NBA Bubble MVP. Not a

436
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 3: real award, but let's just make it one.

437
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 6: What do you think? How do you rate that his

438
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,239
Speaker 6: odds of winning big Bubble? Boy, I give it a

439
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 6: ten right now. It's an easy ten right now. I

440
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 6: told you I'm feeling very optimistic. But none of us

441
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 6: mentioned him yesterday when we were talking about the most

442
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 6: impressive players in the Bubble so far. At that point,

443
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,359
Speaker 6: he had a fifty three point game in a thirty

444
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 6: four point game, and little did we know that Skeets

445
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 6: was going to be giving him the woe Besy later

446
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 6: on in the show. Today, he comes out another thirty

447
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,719
Speaker 6: two points, another win for the Pacers. He's shooting sixty

448
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 6: five percent in the bubble so far. He has one turnover.

449
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 6: One turnover. It's crazy. I mean, he's probably not passing

450
00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 6: the ball a lot because he's on fire. He may

451
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 6: every single shart he takes. He's got to be the

452
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 6: MVP three games in.

453
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and his team's undefeated too, right, as I said, So, Yeah,

454
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 3: I don't see how. I mean, Anthony Davis has been incredible,

455
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: Luca's got huge numbers. There's other guys, but yeah, I

456
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 3: don't know how it's not him right now. The chances

457
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 3: like at the end of the older seating games. Can

458
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 3: Warren keep this up? Lee, That's the real question. Can

459
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 3: he keep going for what feels like, Oh, he's averaging

460
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 3: forty but you know thirty plus every night out down there?

461
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

462
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: Well, you know, people like to just the games to

463
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: come thick and fast when they're on a hot streak.

464
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: And he's got a game again on Thursday, then again

465
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: on Saturday, then again on Monday, then again on Wednesday,

466
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: so he's going to stay hot. And on Monday it's

467
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 1: the game against the Miami Heat. So Jimmy Butler didn't

468
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,360
Speaker 1: play today for the Miami Heat.

469
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 2: Hopefully got it.

470
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: I hope he's back because if Warren is hot and

471
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: he can put thirty five or something like that on

472
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: the that is just going to be so good.

473
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, it's great. I mean, you know, because he

474
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 2: is doing it in the offense. Again, he's just going

475
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:56,719
Speaker 2: out there.

476
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: He's confidence, he's shooting the ball, but he's not just

477
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: out there trying to his bomb away. Although again not

478
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: not to not to be a debbie down in here,

479
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: but his last two games were against the Wizards and

480
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: the Magic, who have just been awful, so he's had

481
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: plenty of opportunity out there. But now they faced the

482
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: Phoenix Sun, so another team that's playing really well. So

483
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: that'll be, that'll be.

484
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: I mean, I want to say.

485
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 5: It's a revenge game. Is a revenge game? This is

486
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 5: gonna be oh yeah, yeah, fifty five for this, this

487
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 5: is this is that games he's gonna had sixty sixty nine.

488
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 5: I don't know what it is.

489
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 6: Did you see some of the shots he was hitting

490
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 6: in the first half. Yes, I get one footed floaters

491
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 6: from the free throw line where he's kind of fallen over.

492
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 7: Uh.

493
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 6: The only thing I can relate it to is a

494
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 6: Tim Duncan fade away. But he was going forward and.

495
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 5: It was swish.

496
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 6: It was swishes from fifteen feet. It was just throwing

497
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 6: him up for the like the third game in a row.

498
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 6: Your heard their announcers call it. That's a heat check

499
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 6: and it went in. He's on a hot streak right now.

500
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 6: So yeah, like you're saying, Lee, keep the games coming

501
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 6: thick and fast.

502
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: Flip, He's like Flip Murray at the in the in

503
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Bossballround two thousand and five.

504
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: Sure, he just came out on fire.

505
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: Everyone tried to try and sell high on him, so

506
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: it might he might cool off TJ, but then fast

507
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 1: I go on. It's it's so weird. I know he

508
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: was drafted by the Suns. It feels like he never

509
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: played for them, though right now it's like that I

510
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: would just forgotten yease.

511
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 3: You know, I can't imagine you were watching a lot

512
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 3: of Phoenix Suns games when Warren was on the door.

513
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 3: Was I I'm not calling you out, not a lot

514
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,400
Speaker 3: at least, but yeah, he's got the Revenge game there.

515
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 3: This is it is fun. I'm almost pissed off with

516
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 3: him though, because at some point, especially now being six

517
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 3: days into this thing, six nights into this thing with

518
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 3: the bubble wrap, you know, you gotta like get up

519
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 3: away from the computer, away from your TV screen. Every

520
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 3: once in a while, you gotta get outside, right, task,

521
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 3: I go for a run if you can. So I'm

522
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 3: like at times like, okay, you know, a PACER's Magic game.

523
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 3: Both of them had, you know, had won a lot

524
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 3: of games so far down there. That's great, but it's like, okay,

525
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: what is this really gonna mean in terms of anything?

526
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 3: Maybe I can get out and not watch this one.

527
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 3: And then he starts on fire and then you're like, well,

528
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 3: I gotta see if he's gonna go for fifty again,

529
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 3: Like I can't leave. So it was almost infuriating to me.

530
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 3: He's too good. He's pissing me off, tasks, because now

531
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: suddenly I gotta watch Pacers games on top of all

532
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 3: these other you know, TNT games and the ones before that.

533
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I thought the magic were at least up

534
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 4: in his grill. I mean they're a pretty good defensive team,

535
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 4: but he just decided to heat check them. And when

536
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 4: you're hot, you're hot. When you're thick, you're thick, you're heating.

537
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 4: You're heat, and you're thick, and you're thick and you're fast,

538
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 4: you're good. So that's what's happening with that guy. I mean, yeah,

539
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 4: he's gonna slow down, but just keep it going until

540
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 4: August tenth, until Jimmy Butler comes back. I mean, that's all.

541
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 4: That's all I'm waiting for. But then we're gonna get

542
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 4: it in the first round of the playoffs. It sure

543
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 4: seems like anyways, unless the Heat can catch the Celtics

544
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 4: because they keep winning and there's a chance that the

545
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 4: Heat can jump into the three seed, but it sure

546
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 4: seems like the Pacers are locked into that five. So

547
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 4: we hopefully we'll get it for a full round. And

548
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 4: on August tenth, Jimmy TJ. Jimmy said, TJ's not even

549
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 4: in my league right now.

550
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,360
Speaker 5: He's there right now.

551
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, they aren't in the same league. TJ is running

552
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 4: the league right O.

553
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 3: Man I tweeted this out too. TJ. Warren and the

554
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 3: Pacers need to like get a petition going to the

555
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 3: league for next season to allow him to never take

556
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,239
Speaker 3: Justice Office Jersey because he's averaging forty per game when

557
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 3: he's got justice on his back. Just leave it there.

558
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 3: I think that that should be a rule we're all

559
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 3: cool with, Like that's fair. The guy's going for fifty

560
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 3: thirty fifty two, I guess fifty three thirty four to

561
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 3: thirty two. Just keep it on there because it is

562
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 3: working for him. My goodness. All right, our next one,

563
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 3: this was I believe the first game of the day.

564
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 3: Impossible to keep track anymore. The Nets they shocked the

565
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 3: Bucks one nineteen one sixteen. A bit of a surprise here.

566
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 3: Obviously they were missing a lot of their guys too,

567
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,439
Speaker 3: and they are taking on the Bucks. Great win. So

568
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 3: tass rate Brooklyn's upset win here scale of one to ten,

569
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 3: where you put it zero.

570
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter at all, and I don't think you

571
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 4: have to worry about it if you're a Milwaukee Bucks

572
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 4: fan at all. I guess it's the Net's biggest win

573
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 4: of the bubble. But and they're feeling good, no doubt.

574
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 4: This was a situation where, just like U Skeets, you

575
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 4: want to go for your jog, but TJ. Warren's going off.

576
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 4: I wanted to take this first game off, but Jamal

577
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 4: Crawford was going to be in attendance. He was going

578
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 4: to wear that Nets uniform for the first time since

579
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 4: signing a while back, and he's coming off a fifty

580
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 4: one point game that he played, you know, a year

581
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,640
Speaker 4: and a half ago, almost, So I want to watch

582
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 4: it and listen when the starters for the Bucks basically

583
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 4: don't play. Joannis and Chris Milton played the first half.

584
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 4: Brook Lopez set out this one. Wesley Matthews saw it out,

585
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 4: set out this one. It's hard to really get too

586
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 4: excited for it. It's it's like a game very upset

587
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 4: in twenty seven years is according to Yeah.

588
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: It was nineteen point favorites the Buck Yeah, something like that.

589
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 3: Yet eight and a half nineteen point favorites a year.

590
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 4: I'm trying to do the math that's nineteen ninety three,

591
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 4: because I was gonna I was gonna liken it to

592
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 4: the raps that the inaugural Wraps beating the seventy two

593
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 4: and ten Bulls. But that's not twenty seven it was.

594
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 4: That's only twenty four.

595
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, So the Nets closed at plus sixteen hundred on

596
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 3: the money line. In this game, they were a consensus

597
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 3: nineteen point underdog, and CBS Sports I think so I

598
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 3: saw it first said it was the largest upset s

599
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 3: It's ninety three task when the MAVs defeated the nineteen

600
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 3: and a half point favorite SuperSonics, Jackson going off, Yeah,

601
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 3: so it's big. I mean, it's got to be more

602
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 3: than a zero. You're right. The Bucks guys they started

603
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 3: coming out as the game went on because they're like,

604
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 3: we're not playing for anything. But that all said, when

605
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 3: those Bucks stars were in there, the Nets were still

606
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 3: beating them, so they were playing really well.

607
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 4: It just it's just reminded me like a game towards

608
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 4: the end of the regular season. We've seen a bunch

609
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 4: of them this year, so yeah, listen, it was weird

610
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 4: that Jared Allen wasn't even playing, and Karslvert wasn't even playing.

611
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 3: That Joe Harris wasn't playing.

612
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what That's what also makes it a zero

613
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 4: for me. They weren't trying to win this game. The

614
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 4: Brooklyn Nets decided, you know what, we're sitting guys. Why

615
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 4: are they sitting guys? I'm confused. I mean, I don't

616
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 4: think they're all banged up? Are they just they're just

617
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:25,880
Speaker 4: resting some dudes.

618
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 3: No, I mean there were injuries. There were body parts

619
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 3: attached to their names in the parentheses. But you're right,

620
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 3: I don't know how extreme they were. And Jared Allen

621
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 3: had been playing a ton I think too over the

622
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 3: last little while, so maybe that one was a little

623
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 3: bit more in rest. But like, are they not playing

624
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 3: for the possibility of Jacquevaughan keeping his coaching job. I

625
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 3: mean he is interim head coach right now. Think he

626
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 3: think he's four and one.

627
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 5: Nice?

628
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 3: And I don't know if you guys saw the reports,

629
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 3: it sounds like a bunch of the Nets players. They

630
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 3: got a little intel from some Rockets players who had

631
00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 3: just played the Bucks. They're all staying in the same

632
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 3: hotel by the pool, you know, hopefully having a what

633
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 3: a bucket of corona like g and in Vegas're like, oh, hey,

634
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,719
Speaker 3: you want to share a bucket of corona here, And

635
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: they talked about, hey, you can beat this team. Here's what,

636
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 3: here's the here's the blueprint, you know, like just pack

637
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 3: the paint, pack the paint, make that wall versus Jannis,

638
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 3: make anyone else. Try and beat you go to the

639
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 3: zone if you got to, which Vaughan implemented multiple times

640
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 3: in this game. There's a lot of two three zone

641
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: and then of course if you can hit a bunch

642
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 3: of if you can jack a bunch of threes and

643
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 3: hit a fair amount, you can beat the box.

644
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 6: Shut them, don't go chasing waterfalls. TLC was on the

645
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 6: fighting fire. He's actually had a couple of good games

646
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 6: here in the bubble, and he's a guy that'll have

647
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 6: those flashes and it's just like TLC, You're like, Wow,

648
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 6: look at these hit singles.

649
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 5: But are people still bumping TLC to this day. I

650
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 5: don't know.

651
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 6: Twenty four and the nets opener a dud in between,

652
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 6: and then twenty six tonight he can shoot the ball sometimes.

653
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 6: Maybe that's one of the guys that gets to stick

654
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 6: around when Kyrie and Katie really come back.

655
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and again, Tess, I'm sorry to keep coming back

656
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 3: to this. It's gotta beiher than a zero for this reason.

657
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw this on Twitter. At

658
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 3: least two people are now going to have to get

659
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 3: Nets tattoos because they were talking before this game. If

660
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 3: we beat the Bucks, I'll get a Jared Allen tattoo

661
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 3: on my back. If we beat the Bucks, I'll get

662
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 3: Chiosa on my forearm. They're screwed, then, like now you know,

663
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 3: there are receipts and we got a couple of tattoo

664
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 3: a couple of nets tattoos coming our way. So again

665
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 3: that's a that's something to me.

666
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 4: I don't know if the Jared Allen person is screwed,

667
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 4: that's not a bad tattoo to have throw on the back.

668
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 4: Ye chios A person screwed. But again I'm getting a

669
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 4: Chris chios A tattoo. That's so good.

670
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: He's the Chris Chris.

671
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 8: Yes, that's right, great reference for about two people. Yeah,

672
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 8: I'm him on popping packs and pull at Chris Corsi.

673
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 8: He would be the only person who knows who it is.

674
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: I'm actually giving this a minus one because Jamale you guys,

675
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: Jamal Crawford played come out there, hit a couple of

676
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: baskets and then he popped his hamstring so his his

677
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: bubble might be over in only six minutes here, but that.

678
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 3: Was unfortunate because he was he looked solid too. I mean,

679
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 3: I know it was very limited minutes, but like, hit

680
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 3: a couple Buckets had a couple of nice passes, and

681
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 3: you're like, okay, that makes sense.

682
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: Five points and three assists in six minutes. I mean,

683
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 1: so he was on track for another fifty pointer. He

684
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: was on track for back to back fifty pointers out there.

685
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just disappointing because a guy like him,

686
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 1: a veteran who you know, was out of the league

687
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: the entire year, comes back in, gets an opportunity, goes

688
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: out there, starts scoring, and then unfortunately does the hamstring.

689
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: But he missed those first two games I think because

690
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: of conditioning reasons. So yeah, you know, perhaps it's related.

691
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 2: But I don't know.

692
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 3: I mean, this one was a fluke because somebody like

693
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 3: stepped on the back of his leg. Like it was

694
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 3: I mean, it wasn't. It wasn't like like no contact

695
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 3: or anything like that. That's what happened.

696
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: But but what I can tell, I just remember when

697
00:30:58,240 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: when he was on our show and he was just

698
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: sort of like, you know, he had no plans of

699
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: ever retiring.

700
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: I don't think Mirk Crawford.

701
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 1: He'll be fifty five years old and someone's got a

702
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: ten day, He'll be ready to go, and he'll come out.

703
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 3: Firing He's the Julio Franco of the NBA. Going to

704
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 3: be okay, All right, Well, let's keep going here. The

705
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 3: Blazer's picked up another win tonight, defeating the Rockets by

706
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: eight right before we jumped on here, So Trey rate

707
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 3: the Blazers chances of making the postseason. This is obviously

708
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 3: another big win. Would you put it scale one to ten.

709
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 6: I'm going triple tens here, I'm going another ten. The

710
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 6: Blazers are balling. They look the best they have all season.

711
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 6: It was, as foretold, a perfect massive matchup for use

712
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 6: of Nurkics to really put his stamp on the game,

713
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 6: and his the way he looks so far in the

714
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 6: bubble has just raised their ceiling a little bit. We

715
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 6: see the Grizzlies have been struggling. They just lost Triple

716
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 6: j and with Nurkic looking in shape, he looks athletic.

717
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 6: You know, that's sometimes a concern with him, even when

718
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 6: he's playing during the regular season, is how in shape

719
00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 6: is and how ba up as he feeling. He looks

720
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 6: incredible right now, and he's just able to do so

721
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 6: much for them to change things and give them another facilitator,

722
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 6: somebody who can make plays alongside Lillard and McCallum. Then

723
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 6: you see Mellow heading a huge clutch jumper down the

724
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 6: stretch and he's just there actually doing the Olympic mellow thing.

725
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 6: He's been perfect for that role. Gary Trent Junior has emerged.

726
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 6: They're looking great right now, and with the Grizzly struggling,

727
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 6: he got a like a little bit a veteran team

728
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 6: who is making the most out of their bubble opportunity.

729
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 3: You guys agree with that.

730
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought this one didn't need to be as

731
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: close as it got in the end.

732
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 2: For the Blazers.

733
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: I thought, with Zach Collin's Whiteside and Nurkic, they could

734
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: have just kept pounding inside. And I thought they sort

735
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: of they went a little bit easy on the Rockers

736
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 1: because James Harden is again in foul trouble. He picked

737
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: up five, And I thought whenever they did attack the paint,

738
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: I mean they outrebounded Houston sixty four to thirty nine here,

739
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: and I just sort of thought, why not just get

740
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 1: going inside all day long? You know? I mean Jeff

741
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: Green was basically their biggest defender. I mean Covington was

742
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: down there as well, But I just thought the Blazers.

743
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: They got the win, an important win for them, but

744
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 1: it was a little bit closer than it needs to

745
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: be because things weren't going all that well for Houston.

746
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 2: And again they just had no.

747
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: Size at all, whereas the Blazers had three seven footers

748
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: out there and could have exploited it a bit better.

749
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, particularly in the sort of well

750
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: early on. I thought they just could have gone to

751
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: that early on and then and then let Damon Cej

752
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: do their thing. But but they got the win, and

753
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: that's all the counts. So good on the Blazers.

754
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 3: When Westbrook threw down that huge dunk with like four

755
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 3: minutes to go and did his classic like flex and scream,

756
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 3: I was like, this is deja vous for the Rockets again.

757
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 3: He had done that. He had had like a lit

758
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 3: game like big play where he screams and goes nuts,

759
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 3: and then the Rockets somehow played defense for a couple

760
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 3: of minutes and pulled it out. I'm like, oh my god,

761
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 3: they're going to somehow do this again. And at that

762
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 3: point it was a very very close game, so they

763
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 3: could have. But of course Blazers, you know, they were

764
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,959
Speaker 3: the ones hitting the shots late and yeah, I hear

765
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 3: what you're saying, Lee, I'm not sure I agree with

766
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 3: the idea of like just feed it to Nurkic. They

767
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 3: did that too, because a lot of the Rockets were

768
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 3: fronting a lot. Yeah, they had some nice passes over

769
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 3: the top, and then you're like waiting to see if

770
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 3: somebody from the weak side is going to come and

771
00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 3: help out on that. But I still like the idea

772
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: of beating the rockets with just spread them out a

773
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 3: little bit still and make moves and there's one guy's

774
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 3: gonna have a lapse in judgment defensively and then they're toast.

775
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:20,799
Speaker 5: I hear you.

776
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 3: You could also just like feed it into the big

777
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 3: guy and let him go to work and you're gonna

778
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 3: you are gonna pick up a lot of fouls that way,

779
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,399
Speaker 3: which they did at times. But Harden's a great post offender. Actually, yeah, yeah,

780
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 3: Tucker is a great post defender. Ryans want you to

781
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 3: post up right.

782
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 6: They want you to be put into a situation where

783
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 6: you're going for a low percentage two point shot. Like

784
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 6: postops are not efficient opportunities, and that's what they're trying

785
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 6: to entice, and if you fall into it, it can

786
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 6: it can ruin the flow of your game and it

787
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,439
Speaker 6: can be so deceiving too, right, Like you'll see tim

788
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 6: I fay Mosgov have a twenty and twelve game that

789
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 6: looks incredible in the NBA Finals, but you're like, if

790
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 6: he's scoring that many points, that means the ball's not

791
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 6: really moving to the people you want shooting the ball.

792
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, so, but it doesn't really matter in the end. Yeah, right, Blazers,

793
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 3: they got the victory tasks. And where do you rate

794
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 3: them here on their chances of actually getting into the postseason?

795
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 3: This is this isn't forcing the mega ball, but ultimately

796
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 3: getting in to the eight seed.

797
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 4: Oh this is uh as as far as it's like

798
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 4: getting jumping over the Grizzlies, Yeah not not, you know,

799
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 4: sort of middle of the back five six. They have

800
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 4: a really tough schedule the rest of the way out.

801
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 4: But yeah, I love their chances coming into this because

802
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 4: they have the best team of all those all those

803
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 4: teams now that they're healthy and NRK and uh and

804
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 4: even you know, I thought Trevor Reza was going to

805
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 4: be a big, big omission from this team when he

806
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 4: decided he wasn't going to play. But Gary Trent Junior

807
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 4: is absolutely balling and he's there, doesn't start, but he's

808
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 4: part of their closing lineup. And Mellow moves up to

809
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 4: the four, and he's working his butt off on on

810
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 4: the perimeter as much as possible. And stand Band said

811
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 4: this on the broadcast, both teams really really working their

812
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 4: butts off as much as possible. And and NRK and

813
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 4: Collins had a ton of upportunities. They missed a bunch

814
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 4: of gimmeas. But the Rockets, you know, we questioned their

815
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 4: size and their tenacity and if they're going to play

816
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 4: defense and if they're going to fight and scrap. They

817
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 4: have done it so far. They've shut us up so

818
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 4: far in the bubble. I question if they can do

819
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 4: it series in and series out, and whether whether they

820
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 4: can just overcome all that size. And I also question,

821
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 4: like you said about Russell Westbrook throws down.

822
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 2: The donk Ah.

823
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 4: He also likes to do that at the end of

824
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 4: the games when the games have not been decided and

825
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 4: he thinks that this thing is over. It happened earlier

826
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 4: this year a couple of games in a row where

827
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 4: he just goes nuts. He's still got a game to play.

828
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 4: Russ I mean he still got to finish this thing off.

829
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 4: But I don't I can't question him. I can't question

830
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 4: hard and Harden was making, you know, the right decision

831
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 4: when he was getting doubled every single time to pass

832
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 4: the Westbrook. It was sort of like Steph Curry being

833
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 4: doubled on the outside with the Warriors' days. Draymond Green

834
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 4: was the Russell Westbrook in that scenario. They played four

835
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 4: on three and then it's just shooters around and then

836
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 4: it's you know, these guys they came through. I know that,

837
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,919
Speaker 4: you know they lost, but the prototype is there so far.

838
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 4: But I wouldn't be taking the rockets to get far.

839
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,760
Speaker 4: But this Blazers team, I mean, they are the better

840
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 4: team of all those teams at the bottom of the

841
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 4: Western Conference playoff picture. Now that Nirk looks awesome, they

842
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 4: feel good and Mellow and Mellow is asking for that ball.

843
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,399
Speaker 4: He was begging for that ball from CJ. McCollum. There,

844
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:37,080
Speaker 4: that's his shot. And he's playing defense. So both really,

845
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 4: you know, historically not great defensive teams. But they're fighting

846
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 4: like it's the playoffs. So that's why these bubble games

847
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 4: are really really good. To start. I thought I expected

848
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 4: had lower expectations, but man, all these guys are bringing it.

849
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Blazers are now into soul spot for ninth,

850
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 3: so they're a game and a half back of the Grizzlies.

851
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,759
Speaker 3: They're a half game up on the Spurs, who are

852
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 3: in tenth. And we had slipped it in here on

853
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 3: one of the Bubble Bubble Wrap podcasts about this idea.

854
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 3: They actually have this little built in the facto tiebreaker

855
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 3: going for them too. I'm talking about the Blazers here

856
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 3: because they have one more win and one more loss

857
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 3: than the Spurs, so you get into percentage points, and

858
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 3: it actually because they've played more games, helps their chances

859
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 3: in a sort of a scenario where they would have

860
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 3: the same amount of wins, if that makes sense. So yeah,

861
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 3: the odds are good that they're going to get in

862
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,400
Speaker 3: here despite still tough competition. But every game is a

863
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 3: playoff game. And look, you also have Damian Lillar who

864
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 3: just closed this out and this one too, so I'm

865
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 3: gonna I'm gonna take him, you know. Of course, over

866
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 3: a Jah Morant DeRozan has been money. But you know,

867
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 3: Booker of course still growing into his role. But Lillard

868
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 3: just he's gonna be ahead of all those guys in

869
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: the Hey, it's a close game, it's a one point game.

870
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 3: We need a bucket, go create something. He's gonna hit

871
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 3: the step back three. You're gonna have faith in that,

872
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 3: maybe a little bit more than some of the other

873
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 3: guys who are all playing really really well down there.

874
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 1: What are we gonna say, Lee, Well, the Blazers are

875
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: two wins up on San Antonio recording.

876
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they have they all played the I guess

877
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 3: they have played three games. Yeah, But the thing is

878
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 3: the Blazers have thirty one wins. San Antonio Spurs have

879
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 3: twenty nine wins. Right, They've just played more games, and

880
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 3: so they just that's what's gonna help. Again, if there's

881
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,440
Speaker 3: a situation where they're just win percentage will be like

882
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 3: down to the like a fifth decimal there, they'll be higher.

883
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 3: That's what would get them in, which would be really

884
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 3: weird if that happens'd be very very strange.

885
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 4: Quick quick question about the original Gary Trent. Gary Trent

886
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 4: Junior's dad. He had he played a little with the Raptors.

887
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 4: I remember him as a I mean he's a you know,

888
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 4: sort of an undersized power forward at six 't eight

889
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 4: I remember that I thought he was a bit of

890
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 4: a scrapper, a bit of a fighter, if I do

891
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 4: remember correctly, Am I wrong?

892
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 2: Yeah?

893
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,720
Speaker 3: I just remember him as a classic, like yeah ninety

894
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 3: sort of low post guy. Yeah I don't. Yeah, so yeah,

895
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: I guess to answer what you think, like just a

896
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 3: bit called.

897
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 6: Them the Shack of the Mac right, so it went

898
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 6: to a small school, but he was the biggest guy there.

899
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 6: So yeah, I guess that fits the scrapper definition.

900
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 2: Mmm.

901
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:02,239
Speaker 4: I thought he almost literally he would be a scrapper though,

902
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 4: Like I thought he would throw down or maybe that's

903
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 4: just maybe that's just just personality or his basketball proto type.

904
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 4: He was a former repwarfing Yeah that's yeah, yeah, yeah

905
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 4: uh yeah. So because I saw maybe maybe I just

906
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 4: wanted a little bit of a brew haha, because I saw,

907
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 4: you know, when Gary Trent Junior kind of came down

908
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:26,439
Speaker 4: on Russell Westbrook. Westbrook was, you know, barreling his way

909
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 4: to the whole. So Gary Trent Junior gave him a

910
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 4: bit of a hard foul in the hands and Russ

911
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 4: Westbrook was very angry. I had a flashback Gary Trent.

912
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 4: The original thought that if if he's like his Papa.

913
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 4: Maybe we could see some some scrapping, but he kept

914
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 4: his school. Everybody was kept her cool. Russ doing a

915
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 4: lot of talking. Russ the most words I think you

916
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,960
Speaker 4: can hear on the broadcast because he's just always talking,

917
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 4: especially when you know he's driving to the hoop. He is,

918
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 4: he hasn't stopped moving, and because he has to create,

919
00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 4: he has to create everything for this team. When Harden

920
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 4: off the floor and so you tweet about they sat

921
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 4: both their their big guys there there. It was weird. Yeah,

922
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:07,919
Speaker 4: and they were good.

923
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:12,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, they actually I think you know, the lead went

924
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 3: down or sorry, the deficit, it went down like by

925
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 3: two points or something, but it wasn't brutal.

926
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I thought Westbrook actually wasn't all that special tonight.

927
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 1: Couldn't hit a free throw either, and he just yeah,

928
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: he just wasn't. He wasn't himself. It wasn't the sort

929
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: of player that he needs to be for the Rockets.

930
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:34,120
Speaker 1: And yeah, Jeff Green Man, Jeff Green, Okay.

931
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm moving on.

932
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,479
Speaker 5: When you start doing no skeets, we can't.

933
00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Jeff Green, what's your Jeff Green take?

934
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 2: My take?

935
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: Well, it's looks he gets those opportunities to shoot, and

936
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: Hassan Whiteside was had no interest in going out to him.

937
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: So it's like someone's in the corner. It's Jeff Green.

938
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: He had five three tonight. Another classic sort of maybe

939
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: this guy's all right, Maybe Jeff Green's he's going to

940
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 1: get himself another contract. You know, I thought I saw

941
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: the graphic. I think it was twelve seasons and he's

942
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:05,399
Speaker 1: pay on nineteams somehow, which is, you know, like he's

943
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: not He's not that bad that you think he would have,

944
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 1: you know, been just on so many teams for one year,

945
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 1: but he's been on That's that's it.

946
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 2: That's basically what he is. He just does one year and.

947
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 6: Then five threes in a game. If a team sees that,

948
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 6: they're like, I could use that in the playoffs. To me,

949
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 6: it seems like if he gets hit in the hands

950
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 6: with a perfect pass, that's going in, but if he

951
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 6: asked them to reach out of their way to catch it,

952
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 6: good luck. The other thing that I really took away

953
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 6: from this game, skeets, did you see the box out

954
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 6: highlight from PJ Tucker? This plug boxes out and stan

955
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:38,359
Speaker 6: Ban Gundy hits us with.

956
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 3: A coassssic box Out by PJ.

957
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 5: Tucker. This guy was raving about box outs.

958
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 3: It was a good one though, all that he will

959
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 3: got lower low.

960
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's so low and.

961
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,839
Speaker 3: He's just got there. And I also love Hey, if

962
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 3: we're talking PJ. Tucker, let's talk about how many shoes

963
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 3: this guy has? Hell, yeah, we got that report.

964
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 4: Yes, sweet, Hey, he got a little custom closet build

965
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 4: for his shoes. You see that in his hotel room?

966
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 3: No, I didn't.

967
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 4: Oh he got like a California closet for his shoes.

968
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 4: I mean he's got like a hundred cubbies for his

969
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 4: hundred pairs of shoes. Hey, I think it's worth talking about.

970
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 4: I know it's a thousand times, but I think it's

971
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 4: worth talking about. And you talk about the box out.

972
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 4: I don't notice any box outs anymore than I do

973
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 4: watch in the Houston Rockets, because you know they're smaller.

974
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 4: They're all boxing out and listen, I got a little

975
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 4: excited as well, just like stand for that. And one

976
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,479
Speaker 4: more thing about Jeff Green. We all got a Jeff

977
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 4: greenhu take God, we tried to be we tried to

978
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 4: be cute with John Hollinger Tray and I interviewed John

979
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 4: Hollingder at the beginning of the season, and this was Yeah,

980
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 4: it was Trey's question, but I liked it a lot

981
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 4: about Jeff Green saying, why does everybody sign Jeff Green?

982
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 4: John Hollinger, you as the former VP of the Memphis Grizzlies,

983
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 4: why did you? Why'd you take him on? And he said,

984
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 4: he's a fine player. Everybody signs him. That's why people

985
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 4: sign because he's he's decent. He's a decent player that

986
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 4: can do a lot of things. Now, he's not a superstar,

987
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 4: but he's a replacement player, as Hollinger and friends would

988
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 4: call him. I think I think that's what a replacement

989
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 4: player means.

990
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 3: I would add to that that I'm sure he's like

991
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 3: an awesome locker room like a super professional guy. It's like,

992
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,319
Speaker 3: all right, bring them in here, okay, great, all right,

993
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:34,760
Speaker 3: moving on? No, no, no, no, no, Jeff notes yeah everything.

994
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 9: No one more thing about this game. They're begging for

995
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 9: it on the chat. I can't do it because it'll

996
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 9: just randomly go to my face. So it's just like Mello,

997
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 9: that's fine that they want to hear mellow. They don't

998
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 9: want to see me.

999
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: But anyway, you need one of those paddles with the

1000
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: mellow fights and just hold that up.

1001
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:58,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, okay, that's a good idea.

1002
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 3: I'll try idea, all right. A couple more here, guys

1003
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 3: Shams and sam Amx say there's growing belief among the

1004
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 3: NBA's eight franchises not in Orlando that a second bubble

1005
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:12,280
Speaker 3: site being built for mini camps and intrasquad scrimmages will

1006
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 3: not happen. There is pessimism about in market mini camps

1007
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 3: for group workouts happening as well. So Trey rate it

1008
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,200
Speaker 3: like this, rate the likelihood despite this report of a

1009
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 3: second bubble still happening, one to ten, where you go.

1010
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:31,320
Speaker 6: Oh, zero, for sure, this is a big zero. I

1011
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 6: forgot that the delete eight was even really a thing

1012
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 6: and that they were putting together a bubble. And it

1013
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 6: seems like the NBA two because a GM told the

1014
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 6: Athletic after a Tuesday call about the thing, there's nothing happening.

1015
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 6: There's literally nothing happening. They're focusing so much on making

1016
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 6: sure that the games that really truly matter go off

1017
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 6: without a hitch, and that every sort of issue that

1018
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 6: arises they're able to address as quickly as they possibly can.

1019
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 6: And they're making it as perfect as they can. The

1020
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 6: teams have been left behind. They're gonna to figure out

1021
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,120
Speaker 6: something for the next few months before the season starts.

1022
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,879
Speaker 6: But it feels impossible to want to care at all

1023
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 6: about these teams that are playing games that do not

1024
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 6: matter when there are games that actually count from early

1025
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 6: afternoon until late at night. Like, when are you going

1026
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 6: to ever turn on a scrimmage of the Chicago Bulls

1027
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:19,720
Speaker 6: to see him punching the clock?

1028
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 9: No?

1029
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 5: Thank you? And I'm a Bulls fan.

1030
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think you're right. I'm with you.

1031
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 3: Zero's off the scale, so I'll go one. But what

1032
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 3: about Youulie?

1033
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to go I'm actually going to make

1034
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 1: a prediction. I think this second bubble does happen because

1035
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 1: the teams are going to want to get some real

1036
00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,160
Speaker 1: sort of scrimmaging games happening. And I think what's going

1037
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 1: to happen is when the Rockets get knocked out of

1038
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs, Jeff Green is going to get signed by

1039
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 1: one of the teams.

1040
00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just want to just slip another Jeff Green

1041
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 2: in there.

1042
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 1: I can't see it happening because I just can't really

1043
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: see why any teams would want to pack up and

1044
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,600
Speaker 1: have to go into that bubble environment for this when

1045
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: let's say it's a month of six weeks ver it is,

1046
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,439
Speaker 1: and then have to come out anyway and go through

1047
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,720
Speaker 1: another preseason training camp for four the season starts.

1048
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,080
Speaker 5: I think I just think, oh.

1049
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 3: Hold on, hold on. I mean they may think that

1050
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 3: they may want to do that because they feel like

1051
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 3: they're being left behind. None of these guys on their

1052
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 3: teams are going to have gone what will it be

1053
00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 3: by the time, you know, there's maybe the start of the

1054
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 3: next season. Yeah, it's a long time. These guys can't

1055
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 3: even in theory, be playing like five on five against

1056
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 3: each other. They're all it's got to be like sort

1057
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,479
Speaker 3: of the one on oero tape workouts. Yeah, that's tough.

1058
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 1: Again, just to pack everyone up and put them again.

1059
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: Is you know, Chicago wherever they're going to go. It

1060
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 1: just it just seems to me that's another sort of

1061
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 1: headache that the NBA probably doesn't really want because let's

1062
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: say it's not as successful there as it is in

1063
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 1: Orlando so far, and you know, with the testing and

1064
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: say a team gets it, then it's just going to

1065
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: be in chaos. Who knows, but it just doesn't seem

1066
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: to be any point to doing it right now. I mean,

1067
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: we've got a league, we've got the resumption of the season.

1068
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: We're going to be in the playoffs in a week

1069
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,280
Speaker 1: or two time, and then we just move on anyway

1070
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: from the season because remember, you know, like at the

1071
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: end of April or halfway through April, we lose fourteen

1072
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: teams anyway, and then the other teams go on and

1073
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 1: play the playoffs anyway. So it's an extended break. But

1074
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: that's just what happens. And this year was different than

1075
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: twenty two teams got into this and the other right teams. Sorry,

1076
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,399
Speaker 1: just bad luck. You're just gonna have to figure something out.

1077
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: But I mean, when is next season even going to start?

1078
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 1: That's the other question. I mean, I can't say it

1079
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 1: happening in this calendar year. I think January February at

1080
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: the earliest, and even then probably not.

1081
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 4: Well yeah, and I think that's a huge, huge concern

1082
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 4: for the league right now, is what is going to

1083
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 4: happen next year. So, as Trey said, they've got to

1084
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 4: be on every single day right now wondering or just

1085
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,680
Speaker 4: on alert at every single moment, just in case something happens,

1086
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:44,879
Speaker 4: because it's easy to let you reguard down and think, well,

1087
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 4: this bubble is going to work out, but something can

1088
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 4: happen at any moment. So yes, there's this year, but

1089
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 4: there's also next year because they have, you know, have

1090
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 4: to really plan. They don't want to have to do

1091
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 4: another bubble situation again. As they've said, it's just a

1092
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,439
Speaker 4: huge undertaking, so that that's on their brains as well,

1093
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 4: and I don't think they want to undertake another bubble,

1094
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:07,080
Speaker 4: especially when the Warriors don't even want to do it.

1095
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 4: The Warriors said, we wanted to just do something locally.

1096
00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 4: The Knicks have eight free agents, so they kind of think, well.

1097
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,439
Speaker 3: The Knicks didn't reply to the email.

1098
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 4: Why are we going to do it anyway, I mean,

1099
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:19,319
Speaker 4: we have half our guys. Yeah, they don't seem to

1100
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 4: be talking much anyways. So then the other six teams.

1101
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 4: We talked to Hawks coach Lloyd Pierce a couple months

1102
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 4: ago or whatever. It was a month ago when the

1103
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 4: idea was fresh and he was on calls about it,

1104
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 4: and he was very excited that his team would be

1105
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,439
Speaker 4: going to play other teams. And I don't even think

1106
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 4: it was about it being televised or whatever. It's just

1107
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,280
Speaker 4: they want to get runs in. But I just think

1108
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 4: the benefits of the current bubble are a parent you

1109
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 4: make money because of the contracts that the regional sports

1110
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 4: or broadcasters have with the teams, so there's hundreds of

1111
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,360
Speaker 4: millions of dollars as well as the playoffs. But a

1112
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 4: bubble with the eight teams, there's no money. They're not

1113
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 4: making any money. And yeah, you could sell ads for

1114
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 4: this tournament, which isn't really a tournament, you know, it's

1115
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:07,239
Speaker 4: just a made up thing. But I don't think the

1116
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:10,560
Speaker 4: benefits really outweigh the risks. So I have zero hope

1117
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 4: that it's gonna happen and the local thing can happen, though, Like, yeah,

1118
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 4: they haven't been able to practice, but the Hawks have

1119
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:18,880
Speaker 4: got to set something up. The Hornets had set something up,

1120
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 4: the Warriors have set something up and deal with it

1121
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 4: that way, every team for themselves. But I think the

1122
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,799
Speaker 4: NBA has too much on their play right now. With

1123
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 4: the salary cap next year, there's just there's a lot

1124
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 4: of planning that has to be going on for next

1125
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:32,399
Speaker 4: year as well as what's happening now.

1126
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it will be fascinating to see if like these

1127
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 3: eight teams suffer. Though at the start of next year,

1128
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,840
Speaker 3: Let's say, like, are these eight teams continue to be

1129
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,400
Speaker 3: the worst eight teams in the league. Does it have

1130
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 3: anything to do with actually, you know, having nine months

1131
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 3: off or were you just the bad teams and you're

1132
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 3: still the bad team? It's sort of impossible to say,

1133
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 3: but you can see like why, like a team like

1134
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 3: the Hawks is a good example, like, well, you know,

1135
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 3: we just got in talking about how great this is

1136
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 3: for the Suns, you know, Okay, like the Wizards are

1137
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,360
Speaker 3: obviously getting minutes to guys and getting looks at guys

1138
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 3: and whether they're going to be with their roster moving forward.

1139
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 3: You can see why it's beneficial. I mean, even if

1140
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 3: you don't know, you know, no chance of making the playoffs,

1141
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 3: let's say there there is something there to that and

1142
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,399
Speaker 3: just playing competitive five on five basketball at that where

1143
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,879
Speaker 3: these other teams can't. But I'm with you, guys, it's

1144
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 3: not happening. And we were always saying right from the beginning, like,

1145
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 3: first off, let's see if this bubble actually works. Okay,

1146
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 3: it does, and it takes a lot of manpower and

1147
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 3: a lot of money, and you know, all of this

1148
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 3: stuff to pull it off, and then maybe they'll do

1149
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 3: it for these delete eight teams. But now they're just

1150
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 3: like I think that at this point they're just like, sorry, guys,

1151
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 3: you just like no one cares honestly, like you're so

1152
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 3: far down the list of like things we've got to

1153
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 3: worry about. That's just you're out of luck. So that's

1154
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 3: tough for those fans of those eight teams. I guess too.

1155
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 3: And we'll see if it has any impact on them forward.

1156
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:56,520
Speaker 3: Maybe it helps them. Maybe they're the eight best teams

1157
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,960
Speaker 3: because they're super arrestedly so fresh. Yeah, exactly, all right,

1158
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,719
Speaker 3: final one, Gendi, We're gonna see your face on this one,

1159
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,840
Speaker 3: because I'm coming to you first. I think it was

1160
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 3: Tory Craig. I saw it on the the Bubble Life

1161
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,680
Speaker 3: account there on Twitter. He went down a water slide

1162
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 3: while he was at Walt Disney World today. So I

1163
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 3: just want to know rate water slides from one to ten.

1164
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 3: Are you a fan or not?

1165
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 9: Judy, I gotta put it at a five point five.

1166
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 9: A water slide is a five point five, Okay, Okay,

1167
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,240
Speaker 9: in most scenarios, if you're just going to a water park,

1168
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,280
Speaker 9: you know, they're almost always disappointing. There's a lot of lineups.

1169
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 9: The ride itself is whatever. It's fine, I guess on

1170
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 9: a hot day it's semi refreshing. But if you're at

1171
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,919
Speaker 9: like if it's a side dish to the actual day,

1172
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 9: like at Canada's Wonderland, for example, they have the entire

1173
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 9: theme park, but then they have the water park right

1174
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 9: next to it. Yep, that's ten out of ten. Man,

1175
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 9: like in a heat wave after a bunch of roller

1176
00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 9: coasters and then you just slide on over there. Last

1177
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 9: time I was there, it was twenty sixteen. It was

1178
00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,800
Speaker 9: heat wave. We didn't bring our bathing suits or anything.

1179
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:09,320
Speaker 9: We just stripped down to our shorts, I guess, jumped

1180
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,800
Speaker 9: in the wave pool, went on the water slides.

1181
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 4: It was the most.

1182
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 9: Refreshing thing I've ever experienced.

1183
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:16,280
Speaker 3: So wow.

1184
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:19,280
Speaker 9: So if it's a side dish ten five point five

1185
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:20,840
Speaker 9: in general.

1186
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, Tory Craig has helped out here, I

1187
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 3: imagine in this scenario because he's no there's no waiting

1188
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,439
Speaker 3: in line. That's the worst part of the the worst

1189
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 3: part about amusement park, especially a water park. Like, oh,

1190
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:31,920
Speaker 3: you've ever done those ones where you've like had to

1191
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 3: like carry the big inner tube up something like upstairs.

1192
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:36,960
Speaker 3: I don't even know if they do the same more.

1193
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 3: I haven't been to a water parking so long.

1194
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,359
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, you ever do it with a four

1195
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:40,799
Speaker 5: year old?

1196
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:45,759
Speaker 3: Oh see that sounds like hell to me? Yeah.

1197
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, you learn a lot about stairs when you're at

1198
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 6: a water park, And that to me is why I

1199
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 6: was always I would give water slides up until last

1200
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:57,240
Speaker 6: summer a nine because I love the slide.

1201
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 5: I love the slide.

1202
00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,400
Speaker 6: I think it's uh, just what a threat, you know,

1203
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:03,880
Speaker 6: But the journey up there is just so arduous. I

1204
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 6: have to dock at a point, but I had some

1205
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 6: carriage on a flume, so now I have to go.

1206
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 5: I'm more like a six.

1207
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,839
Speaker 6: I still like it, but now I'm a little bit

1208
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 6: more hesitant to want.

1209
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 5: To do like My favorite ones are like the giant,

1210
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 5: tall ones.

1211
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,160
Speaker 6: Where you're going straight down right. Yeah, the scariest ones

1212
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 6: and apparently the most dangerous. When you got old, brittle skin.

1213
00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:27,120
Speaker 3: The heavier and bigger you get, I think your joy

1214
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 3: for the water slide goes down. Yeah, you're gonna start

1215
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 3: cutting up some things, and things are gonna hurt. Clear

1216
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 3: your water.

1217
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: Slide guy, Yeah, I haven't had one of those bad

1218
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,880
Speaker 1: experiences yet. I mean, I haven't been on water slides

1219
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,840
Speaker 1: for a while. I think the last time was Actually

1220
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: there's a way MCA here in Atlanta, not far away,

1221
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 1: and they have a big water slide that goes into

1222
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 1: the pool and I went there one day. It was

1223
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,200
Speaker 1: during the off season, so there was no one there

1224
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 1: and it was great. It had a great time, so

1225
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:50,400
Speaker 1: I was just going up and down and up and

1226
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: down all the time. But there was a natural water

1227
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 1: slide in Australia up in Queensland where you basically slide

1228
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 1: down these rocks and into like a pond or whatever.

1229
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 1: Is awesome, but it's scary as well, because you know

1230
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: those rocks are sort of like you know, they've been

1231
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 1: worn out, they've been divoted out over time. But if

1232
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:10,280
Speaker 1: you miss one of them or whatever, you're just slipping

1233
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 1: down on these rocks into the water. So it's great,

1234
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 1: that's great, But I also like those really big steep

1235
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 1: ones that you mentioned tree. I think there's one that

1236
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: water Canada's wonder length of being down that one, it

1237
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 1: only takes like five seconds or something, but you go down,

1238
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: you're almost going straight down.

1239
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:31,400
Speaker 3: Those freaking out the street. Yeah, that's what do you think?

1240
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 3: Where do you read water slides? You fan or not?

1241
00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 4: I don't like being injured. I mean that's that's the

1242
00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 4: number one thing with the water slide. That's that's I'm all.

1243
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,280
Speaker 4: That's all I'm thinking about. I'm not really thinking about, Wow,

1244
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:48,160
Speaker 4: what a thrill. I'm just thinking about getting popped here

1245
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 4: there elsewhere. Like what what tree said there? I mean

1246
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,480
Speaker 4: a torn flu good name. I mean, that's that's. It's

1247
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,800
Speaker 4: that's I think that's that. That just far out wears

1248
00:55:59,000 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 4: any excitement for.

1249
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 3: Me in a water park in general. Pretty gross.

1250
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:11,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I love a wavepool, though.

1251
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 9: I've spent I spent three hours as an adult in

1252
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:22,120
Speaker 9: a wave pool sitting there when the waves weren't happening,

1253
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 9: like waiting for the waves to come back. I can't

1254
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 9: wait for the waves to come back. I'm sure I.

1255
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,359
Speaker 6: Love it too, the anticipation and then you finally hear

1256
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 6: that buzzer pop.

1257
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:33,280
Speaker 5: It's the goggles.

1258
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:37,160
Speaker 3: I'll turn everybody in the chat right now, everybody listening.

1260
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,560

1261
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 3: people either are like quite low on them or love

1262
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:48,840
Speaker 3: them to death. Because like, you even go to an

1263
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 3: amusement park that has a water water park to it,

1264
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,759
Speaker 3: it's like some people are so into it, and some

1265
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 3: people are like, we're not going there. We came here

1266
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 3: to ride the rides, you know, and it's like we

1267
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 3: came here to eat the oka, We're not going to

1268
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:02,759

Speaker 3: we're breaking off, man, we're splitting off. We're hitting wet.

1314

00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:29,600

1316
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 3: players showing up to the game tonight, and I believe

1317
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 3: that's the plan going forward for the next couple. All Right,

1318
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 3: there's that tweetly and bringing the heat here at tonight

1319
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 3: on a Tuesday night pickham results from tonight. It was

1320
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,440
Speaker 3: the Rockets Blazers game. You guys tied it up with me.

1321
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:47,480
Speaker 3: You all took the Blazers to cover moneyline win. Congrats

1322
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 3: to you. I had the rockets. So that's an l

1323
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,800
Speaker 3: for me. But we're all three and three tas heading

1324
00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 3: into Wednesday here? What are we doing? By the way,

1325
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 3: are we going to the end of the seating games?

1326
00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 3: Are we going you know, the end of the month

1327
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,200
Speaker 3: like this will go into the playoffs? We haven't really

1328
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,080
Speaker 3: discussed that. I just realized, But what do you question?

1329
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:10,680
Speaker 5: It feels like a seating bubble challenge makes sense to me.

1330
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1331
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:15,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we got to decide because someone's going to

1332
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 3: be in place and then somebody I'm not doing anything.

1333
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 3: I'm not.

1334
01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're all three and three. This is a good

1335
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 4: time to decide.

1336
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: All right, right, I don't let's do the bubble and

1337
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 1: then decide if we're going to do the playoffs off

1338
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: to the bubble?

1339
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:30,320
Speaker 2: How about that?

1340
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, I'm fine with that, man, he sure, okay,

1341
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 3: all right, So seating games is what we're saying here,

1342
01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:37,520
Speaker 3: all right, you don't want to be in last place.

1343
01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 3: What's the game to for for Wednesday?

1344
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 9: Here?

1345
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 4: It's a six game scad on Wednesday. Now, not a

1346
01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:47,400
Speaker 4: lot of lines out, some players injured sitting out. Uh,

1347
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 4: so I have to go with an early one. So

1348
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:51,760
Speaker 4: I'm sure a lot of people listening to this will say, well,

1349
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:56,160
Speaker 4: that game's already done. It happens. The Grizzlies and the

1350
01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:58,440
Speaker 4: Jazz mentioned it off the top of the show. The

1351
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 4: Grizzlies desperate for a win they haven't won in Orlando

1352
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 4: quite yet, and the Utah Jazz are four and a

1353
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 4: half point favorites against Memphis.

1354
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:15,040
Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, that's that's tough, just because I'm still still

1355
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 3: holding on to a thread with Mcgrizzlies. They're not They're

1356
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 3: not making it easy for me though, And now they

1357
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 3: lost Jaron Jackson Junior. That hurts too. Oh boy, somebody

1358
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 3: got to read on it. Go nuts.

1359
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:28,480
Speaker 2: I haven't.

1360
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 1: I haven't been impressed with the Jazz, but the Jackson

1361
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 1: blow means that I think the Jazz have got five

1362
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 1: points in them, So I'll take Utah.

1363
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I'm also going to go on Utah.

1364
01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 6: Memphis has also played a lot early. This is their

1365
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 6: third game in four nights, and they had one like

1366
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 6: a two nights prior, so They've they've been an early

1367
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,120
Speaker 6: team on the schedule.

1368
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, give me the Jazz, tess. I mean, we

1369
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:55,320
Speaker 3: got both teams on losing streaks here, right with the

1370
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,320
Speaker 3: Grizzlies having won one and the Jazz. I think I've

1371
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:58,920
Speaker 3: dropped their last two, right, So who do you?

1372
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 4: Yeah? But I thought they pretty decent against the Lakers

1373
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 4: on Monday.

1374
01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 3: They fought.

1375
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 4: They just didn't have the the offensive firepower like the

1376
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:11,640
Speaker 4: Lakers do. So I'm comfortable taking Utah.

1377
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 3: It's gonna be the first time here on bubble Wrap,

1378
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 3: we're all going to be back in the same team.

1379
01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 3: I can't do it. I can't take the grizs. I

1380
01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:19,560
Speaker 3: think the Jazz get this win. I mean, the thunder

1381
01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:22,600
Speaker 3: right on their heels. Let's not forget too. You know,

1382
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:24,960
Speaker 3: there is seating that they're still playing for. And the

1383
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,760
Speaker 3: Rockets dropped one tonight, so you know the Nuggets are

1384
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 3: still in play.

1385
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 2: It's tough.

1386
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 3: It's tough. Are they do they really care? With no

1387
01:02:31,720 --> 01:02:34,520
Speaker 3: home court advantage? I think enough. I think they get

1388
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 3: the win. Sorry, guys, everybody's got the Jazz. Maybe we'll

1389
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 3: all be wrong. Maybe this is what we need to

1390
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 3: do to turn it around for the Memphis Grizzlies. I

1391
01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,120
Speaker 3: hope Grim, Brandon Clark, and Dylan Brooks shut off the

1392
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 3: few Canadians here on on bubble Wrap.

1393
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 4: All right, if we just pick the same the rest

1394
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 4: of the way. No one will have to do it.

1395
01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:54,320
Speaker 3: That's how we all said we would all have to

1396
01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 3: do it.

1397
