16
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 3: Could it be the last and that's the pie? Yes?

17
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 1: Could it be the last one?

18
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: Task?

19
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: That's an interesting question. There's what a third of the

20
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: pie left?

21
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 3: Yes? Approximately?

22
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: It's like how badly do I want it today?

23
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 3: You know you don't have to do it tomorrow.

24
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 2: I know, deep I know a part of me would

25
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 2: love to put this away today.

26
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: But you know it's a lot.

27
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: It's a lot of so let's at least, uh, you know,

28
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: whip it up halfway there.

29
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: At the same time, if it is a third left,

30
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 3: it's kind of what you've done in each of the

31
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 3: first two days.

32
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so we're gonna try this.

33
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 5: There's a lot of freelances.

34
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 6: I feel like you had a strategy and now you've

35
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 6: just got.

36
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: I will admit I had like weird, like pumpkin pie

37
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 2: dreams last night, which is never a good sign. I

38
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: know you've eaten too much pumpkin pie. But here we

39
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: go day three and as I get into my first

40
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: bite JD, we had wedgie number ten and it was

41
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: Keegan Murray getting the block on jail and Green test.

42
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 3: Great defense by Keegan Murray to hang with Jalen Green

43
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: and stuff it. First one we've seen in a while.

44
00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 5: It's been a long time.

45
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 6: Shouldn't left you, but that was a nice block forty five.

46
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 6: I mentioned I think last week that Jalen Green gets

47
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 6: blocked at the rim a lot, but he did say

48
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 6: that add another one to the list. I think that

49
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 6: might be his thirteenth time getting blocked at the rim

50
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 6: and our tenth.

51
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 3: Legie Beautiful still had a good game after that, still

52
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 3: chipped in in, but tough one. They're kicking Bray. He's

53
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 3: a good defender.

54
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm not adding much of this conversation.

55
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: I really, I really, I really attacked the pie this morning.

56
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 5: You're hitting it hard.

57
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've realized the pie needs to be afraid of you,

58
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: so I need to come a little more aggressive with this.

59
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, anymore eating mey more. Weggies pace is

60
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 3: only forty five. That's really drastically slow.

61
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: It really has slowed down. But that's okay. Weggie's coming, bunches.

62
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: Let's get into the NBA Cup.

63
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: The quarterfinals are set.

64
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: We had five spots in the eighteen bracket that we're

65
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: clinched last night as group play concluded. We're going to

66
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 2: through some of the more notable games, but no reason

67
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: to bury the lead here. Your knockout round matchups next

68
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: week are in the West, number one Thunder hosting the

69
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: number four wild card Mavericks, and then you got the

70
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: number two Rockets hosting the number three Warriors because the

71
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: Warriors lost last night there to the Nugs. The West

72
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 2: quarterfinals of the NBA Cup featuring four newcomers to the

73
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: knockout round.

74
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 1: Gotta like that. We're gonna have fresh Vegas blood.

75
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 3: Maybe yeah.

76
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 2: In the East, it'll be the number one Bucks hosting

77
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 2: the number four wild card Magic and MSG gets a

78
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 2: knockout game. The number two Knicks will host the number

79
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: three Hawks. So let's get into some of those games

80
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: last night. Let's start in the East. We'll then move

81
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: to the West. But the big game that you know,

82
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: all eyes were on task was the Knicks eventually rolling

83
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 2: to win East Group A against the Magic, but the

84
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 2: Magic maintain the wild card spot. I mean, it was

85
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 2: a weird night when you think about it, because you're

86
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: not only watching results, but then you're like getting into

87
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 2: point differentials and you're like, oh my god, the Magic,

88
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: Like they can't lose by like thirty six thirty seven.

89
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 2: They got to get back into this game, and they

90
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: did enough there in the fourth part.

91
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the point differential was pretty funny listening to that

92
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 3: all night long as the broadcasters had to recite these

93
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 3: point differential lines. Maybe I was having pumpkin thoughts as well,

94
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 3: because I was thinking about the Ortlanto Magic going into

95
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 3: the quarterfinals and thinking watching Franz Wagner and a thirty

96
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 3: point performance awesome from him while he was getting smoked

97
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 3: by the New York Knicks. I was thinking, this is

98
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 3: in a way a blessing that Paula Bancaro has gone

99
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 3: out and Franz Wagner has had to take on this

100
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 3: new role of being this number one guy because if

101
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 3: they want to go anywhere in the playoffs, and this

102
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: team looks so strong defensively, they need something offensively from

103
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 3: Franz and to be that number two guy. So he's

104
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 3: had to take it on. And he was awesome going

105
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 3: at Ogn Andobi or whoever they put on him. He

106
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 3: looked so good. At the same time, the team that

107
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: looked really good was the near Knicks. Offensively, No, they

108
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 3: looked fun.

109
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: Now there's the number one offense in the league now

110
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: under tips, I think so. Yeah.

111
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 5: They're definitely the number one offense over the last.

112
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 6: Ten games, and maybe more important, they are I think

113
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 6: seventeenth in the league on the defensive end of the

114
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 6: ball end of the ball.

115
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 5: That doesn't make sense.

116
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 6: Defensive hemisphere of the ball, but they're seventeenth. They're not

117
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 6: going to be a great defensive team, right, They're not

118
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,359
Speaker 6: going to finish top ten, But if they can be

119
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 6: in the fifteen range somewhere in the middle, that's gonna

120
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 6: be good for the Knicks. And they definitely looked better.

121
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 6: Franz was good, but Og was definitely making them work

122
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 6: ten for twenty two from the floor from Franzo A

123
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 6: good night, but not a crazy night.

124
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 5: But then the.

125
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 6: Perimeter players for Orlando just really couldn't pick up the slack.

126
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 6: I didn't think Jalen Suggs five of sixteen, KCP went

127
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 6: three of seven from three, and Anthony Black had a

128
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 6: rough one six points four turnovers. Just looked a little

129
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 6: rattled to me. So yeah, the Knicks were good enough

130
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 6: on offense. The score looks even better if the Magic

131
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 6: don't come through with a clutch fourth quarter point differential

132
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 6: thirty one to sixteen for them still ended up being

133
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 6: a big time Nick's victory, but they have figured out

134
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 6: their offense totally. The pick and roll with Brunson and

135
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 6: Towns is basically unstoppable right now.

136
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,239
Speaker 5: Towns was just doing.

137
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 6: Bits last night, had that post up on Moe Wagner,

138
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 6: Bumps him, bumps him again, stops, looks at the ref.

139
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: Hey, no foul, all right, fadeaway jumper.

140
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 6: Awesome, And this guy has the craziest that's he that

141
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 6: was so good. He threw the pass to the corner

142
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 6: with his left hand, spun around. I don't even think

143
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 6: the guy made the shot. He finished with zero assists.

144
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 6: Even though he had that crazy tip to Michale Bridges

145
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 6: at the end of the quarter as well. But Towns

146
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 6: is playing great, Brunson is playing great. They've got a

147
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 6: decent enough defense right now, and eventually they'll get Mitchell

148
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 6: Robinson back, They'll get precious at you a back. Maybe

149
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 6: they're able to make a move at the trade deadline

150
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 6: as well. Good stuff from the Knicks.

151
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: Game and the clear favorite against the Atlanta Hawks next

152
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 3: week in the quarterfinals game as the home team. They're

153
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 3: still playing at home in the quarterfinals, is still playing

154
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 3: in these cities before they go to Vegas for the

155
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 3: semi finals, so obviously they're rolling, and I was in

156
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 3: Vegas mode. I guess watching the Orlando Magic as well,

157
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 3: the three German players twenty of forty last night for

158
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 3: the Orlando Magic because you got both Wagners and a

159
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 3: Da Silva, So twenty four bet German money in Vegas.

160
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe maybe they'll they if they do

161
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: get there. They're obviously the underdog as well, I would

162
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 3: say going into Milwaukee for that game. But anyway, that

163
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 3: was that was a smoker.

164
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that was a smoker, head like, yeah, the

165
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 2: only thing that was interesting was it did briefly look

166
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 2: like the Knicks could sort of throw things into chaos

167
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: when they were up by thirty seven points against the

168
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 2: Magic in the third quarter, and like that would have

169
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 2: been if that sort of difference had stood, it would

170
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: have been enough to eliminate Orlando and suddenly the Celtics

171
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: would be going on as a wildcard. But yeah, Orlando,

172
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 2: Wagner got them there in the fourth, chipped away and

173
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: then it looks more respectable and they move on as

174
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 2: a wildcard team. Let's talk quickly about the Bucks, because

175
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 2: they destroyed the Pistons as well, and that was a

176
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 2: game that whoever won it was winning that group Milwaukee

177
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 2: did they take Group B. They're the number one seed.

178
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: As we went over one twenty eight, one oh seven,

179
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 2: Jannis nearly perfect ten of eleven, and Dame was pretty damn.

180
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 6: Good too, ten of eleven and unfortunately started ten for ten.

181
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 6: That's a kicker, missing the last one. But Yannis was

182
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 6: awesome last night. He had four or five mid range jumpers.

183
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 6: I've talked about how much better he.

184
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 5: Is this season.

185
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 6: Last night he's shooting him like with the leg kickout

186
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 6: as if he's Kobe Bryant. So comfortable getting into it.

187
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 6: He may have even shrugged after the last one he

188
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 6: made in the third quarter. I couldn't tell if he

189
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 6: was just like celebrating or going for a full MJ

190
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 6: shrug on a mid range jumper. Kind of odd, but still,

191
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 6: he's shooting forty eight percent on mid rangers. The league

192
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 6: average is forty one. He takes the fourth most per game,

193
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 6: and he's shooting the eighth best percentage. He's basically DeMar

194
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 6: Derozen from the mid range, and that guy we talked

195
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 6: about it is the best midrange player in the league

196
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 6: alongside like Devin Booker, Kevin durant Janis has been that

197
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 6: guy right now. Then you throw in Dame looking really good.

198
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 6: Dame and Giannis have scored twenty five or more points

199
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 6: in each of the last three games. Both of them

200
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 6: have twenty plus in each of their last five games.

201
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 5: This is clearly the best they have looked together.

202
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 6: They're working together more often, they're finding each other in

203
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 6: the pick and roll. They just seem to have figured

204
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 6: out their chemistry. After you know, it's taken a while,

205
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 6: it's taken sixteen months or whatever it is, but they

206
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 6: seem to have a bit of a rhythm here, and

207
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 6: the Bucks are looking tough. I'm loving what I'm seeing,

208
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 6: especially from y Honest.

209
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: They are definitely playing together and they still are amazing

210
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 3: at isolation ball and isolation times in games. You see

211
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 3: Dame in this game hit his first three buckets of

212
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 3: this game where it was just literally isolation ball. He

213
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: just felt so good. And then Gais comes out in

214
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 3: the second half a monster in that third quarter, fourteen

215
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 3: points in the first six minutes of that quarter, and

216
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 3: three of those were mid range jumpers, and then he

217
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 3: had a pump fake three that somehow Isaiah Stuart bid

218
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 3: on how do you bite on a three point shot

219
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 3: from yeah instead of cool? Which is really weird. So

220
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: he goes to the line for another one. That just

221
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 3: felt like the most even performance by the Bucks this

222
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 3: season of forty eight minutes. I mean, they really smoked.

223
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 3: They didn't have to play forty minutes, but it really

224
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 3: felt like a just like a full performance of them.

225
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: And speaking of that, Chris Middleton rumored to be coming

226
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 3: back very soon, as our Eric name reported that it

227
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 3: should be coming very very soon. Who knows if it

228
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 3: comes before their quarter final game, but I do think

229
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 3: he comes in for Andre Jackson Junior in that starting

230
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 3: lineup because Torrian Prince will be that fifth guy beside

231
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: our guys Giannis and Dame and Brooke. How can he shoot?

232
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 3: Would he shooting from three? I was surprised to see

233
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: that he's shooting fifty six point six percent from three,

234
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 3: leading the league at three point percentage. She's taking four

235
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 3: per game, so he doesn't take a ton. He has

236
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 3: to mandated to take four and that's basically about it.

237
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 3: And he banged home four or four in this one.

238
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 3: So he's going to be the fifth starter beside Milton Brook, Johannison,

239
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: Dame I assume, and Doc loves his old guy, so

240
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 3: how how could he not be? He just I can't

241
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 3: believe he's shooting that way.

242
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it when I saw your tweet last

243
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 2: night talking about Torrian Prince leading the league in three percent,

244
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 2: Like what is that right? There's actually only four guys

245
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 2: that are over fifty percent from three? Quick little trivia. Obviously,

246
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 2: Torrian Prince leading the way at fifty six point six percent,

247
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 2: like you said you had named the other three is.

248
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 3: A dairy milk his teammate.

249
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 2: No, it's not, no, No, it's not very milk, but

250
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 2: he's very close.

251
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: He's very close.

252
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 2: He's forty nine point five, was leading for a while.

253
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: He's fifth.

254
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 6: A J.

255
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 2: Green, I'm gonna have to give you some hints. One

256
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 2: one of the best players, well hold On, probably the

257
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: best player still in the NBA.

258
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 5: Yoki just doesn't take a ton No.

259
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 2: This guy we talked about through the first I want

260
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 2: to say, three or four weeks of the season because

261
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: he was playing lights out. He's still playing really well.

262
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 2: We're talking about his All Star case. He's never made one.

263
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 2: Non Powell still over fifty percent, right at fifty.

264
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 3: Points, a fifty to fifty guy.

265
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: And then this guy. I'd have to check how many

266
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 2: threes he's actually taken, but he has been the come

267
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 2: out of nowhere player of the year where you're like.

268
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: Holy crap.

269
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 2: This guy plays twenty minutes a game and has like

270
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 2: had big performances on one of the best teams in

271
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: the league. He attempts three a game, so it's not

272
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: a lot, but he's shooting over fifty percent. Short guy guard,

273
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: I think he's out with an illness right now.

274
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: I want to peepee No, no, not.

275
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: Peepe yeah no, not fast pep.

276
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 5: He's out with an illness. One of the best teams in.

277
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 2: The league, in fact, record wise, the best team in

278
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: the league.

279
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: Carris Lavert No, not Carros Wallas.

280
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 2: No, No, not Casey Wallace. Yeah, nineteen and three a

281
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 2: Mary Cavaliers.

282
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 4: No.

283
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 2: The other white guy George No? The other white guy?

284
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 2: Is he white?

285
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:03,200
Speaker 6: Let me say this, and I's like a Corroy named

286
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 6: every game, Max Drew's he's hurt. No.

287
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 5: Who's the other guy on the Cavs Dean Wait?

288
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 3: No, a white guy that were missing.

289
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 5: A shooting guard obviously, Sam Merrill I said him.

290
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 6: Not Ricky Rubio, he's gone, Mark Price, No, Ti Jerome

291
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 6: guys Tijerro, Ti Jerome.

292
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, shooting black dragon roll himself.

293
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: That's right. So the East quarterfinal matchups, just to remind you,

294
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: are Magic at Bucks and then Hawks at Knicks. Of

295
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 2: those two games, which one intrigues you more? TK, come

296
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 2: on Son, Hawks at Knicks, Trey Young and Madison and

297
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 2: Madison Square Garden elimination game, shooting them up. I can't

298
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 2: wait to see that.

299
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 6: You know that the Nicks still hate Trey Young even

300
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 6: though that series was nearly four years ago. He was

301
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 6: going off in the Garden but Tresh had some great

302
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 6: performances in big games against the Knicks. So I'm looking

303
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 6: forward to that one. Magic Bucks could be an ugly one,

304
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 6: or it can be an awesome game. Who knows, But

305
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 6: Hawks next, I think it's going to be a classic.

306
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 3: Great call. Yeah, that's the one. I will be cheering

307
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: for the Atlanta Hawks just so we can see them

308
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: in Las Vegas. Why not?

309
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 2: That's interesting? Would you rather just why you could go

310
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 2: see the Hawks forty one times here in Atlanta? Yeah?

311
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 3: Number one, I'm not doing that. Number two, you get

312
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 3: to see them in Vegas. Wow, whoa, I get free

313
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 3: tickets to go see them in Vegas.

314
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: You get free tickets too, Yeah, yeah, you could go.

315
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 5: You could definitely go.

316
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, would you rather see the Knicks? Just see the

317
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 3: Knicks in Vegas? Because they are the next one and

318
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: they'll be filling out the arena.

319
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you, the NBA is probably praying that

320
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 2: it's the New York Knicks moving on, not the hot

321
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: they are for that game that they'd be playing in

322
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 2: the semi finals there. But yeah, I guess the NBA

323
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 2: would want I guess you would want Bucks at Nicks. Yeah,

324
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: instead of the other two. That's what they'd be pulling

325
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 2: for for ticket sale. I don't know. People in Vegas

326
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 2: they go to anything. They're like, what else are we

327
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 2: gonna do? Especially in the winter. It's not like you

328
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: can go sit by the pool. All right, well there's

329
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 2: a game on. You want to go see the Magic

330
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: play the Hawks?

331
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 5: They're here.

332
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're playing at the T Mobile Arena. All right,

333
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: let's go.

334
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

335
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what people are gonna be doing.

336
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 5: That's what people are gonna be dood. I hadn't thought

337
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 5: you can't sit by the pool. Disappointing.

338
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

339
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 5: I don't know.

340
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 3: I don't know that.

341
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 2: It's pretty frigid.

342
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, they want the biggest of the names. There's no

343
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 3: doubt whether it's Nick's Warriors in the end or whoever.

344
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 3: Last year they had the Pacers out there. Speaking of

345
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 3: the Pacers, we haven't talked about the Toronto Raptors seeing

346
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 3: Scottie Barnes with a career high against the Indiana Pacers.

347
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: Here's the problem with the Cup.

348
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: When we get to the final night of the Cup,

349
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: I feel like all the other games don't count and

350
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 2: it don't matter. It's so weird and I know that's

351
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 2: like so dumb to think about because it obviously counts

352
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: to your record. Barnes is awesome, there's some other great games.

353
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 2: But if they didn't have stakes when it came.

354
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 6: To the Cup, I was like, Eh, if your team

355
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 6: has been eliminated before the last night of group play,

356
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 6: you shouldn't be able to use your court.

357
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 5: So people, that game doesn't count. This game is just

358
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 5: a standard regular season game.

359
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 2: That's a good idea. Yeah, but I'm about.

360
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 6: Ready to cross off the Indiana Pacers here. Yeah, they're

361
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 6: a disappointing team. Man, it is easy to score on them.

362
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 6: Scottie Barnes was on fire. The jumper was money. I

363
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 6: thought that was really why he got to his career high.

364
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 6: But he was getting wide open looks, knocking them all down,

365
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 6: and then anytime you put the ball on the floor,

366
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 6: he'd be able to get to the rim.

367
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 5: Basically no problem.

368
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 6: The Pacers are a bottom three defense in the league,

369
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 6: and they just don't look the same as when they

370
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 6: caught everybody by surprise at the beginning of last year

371
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 6: during the Cup.

372
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 5: Really when they kind of made their bones. So really

373
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 5: poor start to the season for them.

374
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, you called it at the beginning of the season,

375
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 3: tray that they really didn't do anything in free agency

376
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 3: to improve them, and then they come out and are

377
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 3: extremely disappointing. I would rather take or I would take

378
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 3: the Tronto Raptors in a series over the Indiana Pacers

379
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: than the Pacers against them. They just don't look as good,

380
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 3: they don't play as hard. There's no question they look

381
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 3: like a bad team. Tyres Haliburn came out after the

382
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 3: game and called out his team. Essentially, it was.

383
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 2: Well timed because he had a good game.

384
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: Yes, I noticed that, well lay thirty point game.

385
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 2: He was on fire. Actually, but then you're right, he

386
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: did call out the team, and somebody needs to. I mean,

387
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 2: I guess it's sort of had a little bump back

388
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 2: for Anthony Edwards with the Wolves, like your lead player, Sure,

389
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 2: hold the team accountable, hold yourself accountable.

390
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: But you're right, Yeah, the Raptors look, I thought Scottie

391
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 3: Barnes he got some open looks driving, but he was

392
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 3: doing it against Siakam at times, shooting over him, going

393
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 3: through him. I know the league would rather see the

394
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 3: Knicks than the Pacers in the finals in Vegas, but

395
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 3: one thing that they don't want to see is all

396
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 3: these coaches that were mad last night, including Rick Carlisle.

397
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 3: After the game, Rick Carlisle said, they're not trying to

398
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 3: just stop Halliburton, They're trying to hurt Halliburton. And then

399
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 3: you had Steve Kerr that will get to furious over

400
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 3: what's going on. Draymond Green luckily was not playing in

401
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 3: this one, or else he may have gotten involved. He

402
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 3: just had a sad face when Kameng follow this is

403
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 3: very funny. Or he may don't.

404
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna say you.

405
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: Doka also went off, didn't He.

406
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 3: Went right at John Gold. He may get suspended for that.

407
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 3: He went after him and got kicked out of the game.

408
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 3: So you had mad coaches.

409
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 2: The NBA Cup man cranks up the intensity. Baby, I

410
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 2: want that money. Do coaches get.

411
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: Paid the bonus?

412
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 3: A bonus?

413
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 5: Now you don't think so.

414
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 3: They don't get a medal, they don't get I know.

415
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 2: But you don't need The coaching staff gets arety much

416
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 2: any bit of this money.

417
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 5: Commemorative quarters.

418
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 2: It get a trip to Vegas that's sort of see

419
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 2: the Hawks play there, tickets to one of the what's

420
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 2: the Michael Jackson joke? All the coaches goes.

421
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 5: In front row called is this? This is it? Michael Jackson?

422
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:34,719
Speaker 2: So you look it up?

423
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 3: Is this good?

424
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: It was Michael Jackson Vegas Show.

425
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: What the hell is it called?

426
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 3: This is it?

427
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 5: This is it? That's what it is, right, It's called

428
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 5: one one. That's a record.

429
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: It's called one Michael Jackson one. Yeah.

430
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 6: If you want a good Michael Jackson. In fact, let's

Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that blew bye bye ja Yeah.

434
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: Michael Jackson won by Cirtaslay. I guess is what I

435
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 2: should say. It's at the Mandalay Bay. We went and

436
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: watched it. Our buddy Grish, Your buddy Grish, my buddy Grish.

437
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: He fell asleep during it. No, I think that was

438
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 2: too much Vegas fun. It wasn't because the show wasn't entertaining,

439
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 2: but he was passed out for like twenty to thirty minutes.

440
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: We're like, well, look at the glove.

441
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 3: Look at the glove.

442
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 5: It's going everywhere, like.

443
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, look at it.

444
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 2: Jackson glove passed out.

445
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 3: He saw it again though, really yeah? He again?

446
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah.

447
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 5: They playing music outside.

448
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about the West Cup date because this

449
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 2: was this was entertaining with what was going on there

450
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: and a couple of these groups. The Thunder beat the

451
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 2: Jazz one thirty three, one oh six, and about forty

452
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 2: five minutes later they learned that they were advancing to

453
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 2: the quarterfinals because they needed the Spurs to lose, and

454
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 2: they did. But we can start quickly here with Okay, see,

455
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a bit of an ass kicking

456
00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 2: there against the Utah Jazz. What are you laughing about?

457
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 3: Well, why do you want to talk about this game?

458
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: They are the best teams in the West in the league.

459
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 5: And the worst team. Yeah, guess what the best team won.

460
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,120
Speaker 6: I thought the most interesting thing from Thunder, Jazz and

461
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 6: Sun Spurs is that a Kevin Durant rolled his ankle

462
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 6: playing against the Spurs. He left in the second quarter,

463
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 6: didn't come back for the second half. He obviously just

464
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 6: got back from a calf strain. I don't know how

465
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 6: long he's gonna be out. You could assume maybe a

466
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 6: couple of weeks at the sprayed ankle, but maybe he's

467
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 6: tough and he just comes back right away. It didn't

468
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 6: look like a drastic one where they're like, I'm going

469
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 6: to crutch him off or take him off on a

470
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 6: wheelchair or anything like that. And the other thing was

471
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 6: that Jeremy Sohan looked like Caesar Romero Joker.

472
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, with his bright green, very sort of long hair. Yeah.

473
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 5: Interesting, look, he had a nice game fourteen point.

474
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 2: Those are your notes from thunder Jess.

475
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I thought it was cool when he pulled

476
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 6: out a gun and shot it and it just had

477
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 6: pole when it came out.

478
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,479
Speaker 2: So Sun Spurs, Yeah, Suns beat them one oh four

479
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 2: ninety three, said the Kadi injury. But unfortunately for both

480
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: those squads and their and they says they're both eliminated

481
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: because of what went on in the really entertaining game

482
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 2: and quite frankly a weird game between the Mavericks and

483
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,399
Speaker 2: the Grizzlies. Mavericks rallied late to beat the grizz one

484
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 2: one one sixteen and they earned the wild card berth.

485
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,959
Speaker 2: They were down fifteen in the fourth, they were down

486
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,919
Speaker 2: one eleven to one oh three with like three and

487
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: a half to go, and they stormed back. They were

488
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 2: helped out by the fact that they were in the bonus, Like,

489
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: oh my goodness, four minutes into the fourth quarter. They

490
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 2: shot a ton of free throws, and there were some

491
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 2: dumbfouls by Grizzlies players, and they were getting the maps

492
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 2: were a kind whistle, I thought, But anyway, weird game.

493
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 2: And then it was Dinwitty splashing some threes in transition,

494
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 2: then PJ. Washington and suddenly the Mavericks you know, win

495
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 2: and are in here as the wildcard. Just an insane game.

496
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: They won, and they had to win I think by four.

497
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 6: It was what they were saying on the broadcast last

498
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,479
Speaker 6: night to actually advance as the wild card. And not

499
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 6: only was this a cup game, this was our pickum game.

500
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 6: And I was thinking, oh.

501
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 1: Easy cover here.

502
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 6: So the Grizzlies, they were up twelve with eight thirty

503
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 6: I've left over the next seven minutes. They went one

504
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,159
Speaker 6: for eleven from the field. The one make was a

505
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 6: Ja Morant three pointer, and he thought he missed it.

506
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 6: He followed it as if he was going to get

507
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 6: the offensive rebound. Like you said, four turnovers, just dumb ones.

508
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 6: They got a steal and John Morant catches the outlet

509
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 6: pass out of bounds on the sideline. Ten fouls turned

510
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 6: into twenty six fourth quarter free throws for the Mavericks.

511
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 6: Some of those are like a technical some of those

512
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 6: are you know, the bonus right at the end of

513
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 6: the game when you're trying to play the foul game.

514
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 6: But a lot of free throws, certainly a lot of

515
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 6: free throws for the MAVs. I thought it was mostly

516
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 6: legit fouls except for the Grizzlies.

517
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 5: Then should have been getting similar calls.

518
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: Jaron Jackson got hammered one.

519
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 6: He got hit in the head shooting a layup underneath

520
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 6: by I think it was lively right, Yeah, bump bump,

521
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 6: hit in the head, missed the layup, didn't work out.

522
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 6: They were outscored twenty two to five. I said, the

523
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 6: Grizzlies are back. Unfortunately, Grizzlies back also means their half

524
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 6: court offense can be pretty bad. I thought part of

525
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 6: it was the defense from the MAVs.

526
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 5: PJ.

527
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 6: Washington did a great job on John Morant, like you said,

528
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 6: did what he was hitting big threes, but it just

529
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 6: looked like the Grizzlies couldn't get the ball inside.

530
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 5: And Marcus Smart was going insane and this one he

531
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 5: also was back.

532
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 6: I've been talking about how well he played on our

533
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 6: winners and losers on Monday. I forgot he was basically

534
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 6: a Grizzly but he had a couple of twenty point games,

535
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 6: really good stuff last night zero points, zero for seven

536
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 6: from the field, six assists. That's nice, but also three

537
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 6: turnovers and the dumbest foul.

538
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:25,880
Speaker 5: On Luka Doncic.

539
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 6: Grizzlies were up three fouls him underneath the Grizzlies basket

540
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,880
Speaker 6: ninety feet from the floor.

541
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 3: He hacked him.

542
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 6: He hacked him, Yeah, he hacked him. He knew it

543
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 6: right away. He also like saved an airball onto Luca.

544
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 6: He said he thought it was tipped. Yeah, I don't

545
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 6: think it was.

546
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,400
Speaker 1: I don't think it was. Everybody said, what are you doing?

547
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 6: He stepped on the out of bounds line before he

548
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 6: even saved it. Just dumb stuff, all so dumb.

549
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 2: And then there was a challenge by Jenkinson the Grizzlies

550
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 2: when it went out of bounds and it was like

551
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 2: whose ball is it? But now the rule is, well,

552
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,679
Speaker 2: if you think if the refs decide there was a

553
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: foul on the play, that can actually call that, And

554
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 2: they're like, and it was tough to see you first, Like,

555
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 2: it took me a couple replays to go like, oh yeah,

556
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,720
Speaker 2: Jared Jackson Junior was hooking there. So then they called

557
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 2: a fowl and that resulted in more free throws and

558
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: like they shot twenty six free throws in the fourth

559
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 2: quarter test Oh yeah, and they.

560
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:12,360
Speaker 1: Missed a lot too.

561
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 6: On the skin weeight roller Coaster, the MAVs are missing

562
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 6: all these free throws. He's like, this is making me

563
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 6: very upset. And then ten minutes later he said, I've

564
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 6: enjoyed the last ten minutes of my life.

565
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

566
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 5: I started making free throws and the Grizzlies could not score, and.

567
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: There was the stretch when yeah, it looks like they

568
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 2: weren't gonna make it into the knockout round, and then

569
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 2: they hit all these threes and like the mass broadcast,

570
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 2: they were like just laughing laughed. They were literally just

571
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 2: laughing for like fifty seconds of like how crazy the

572
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,959
Speaker 2: place was going and how quickly the game turned.

573
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 3: That was a real weird game. It was weird, yeah,

574
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 3: because I can understand Jess Skinwaight's roller Coaster. The maps

575
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 3: look like crap the entire game, and the third quarter

576
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,399
Speaker 3: is where it started. They had ten turnovers in a quarter.

577
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 3: That's hard to do. They got outscore thirty eight twenty two.

578
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 3: They didn't hit a three. They're zero for seven in

579
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 3: that third quarter. So the Grizzlies just looked awesome. Midway

580
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 3: through the fourth, it looked like, Wow, this team is

581
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,719
Speaker 3: hard to play because midway through the fourth they had

582
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 3: played eleven guys at least six minutes. I mean, that's

583
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 3: why they can play the fastest pace in the league.

584
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 3: They just go out and know zachied even in this game,

585
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 3: and look, Moran had twenty three at that point, they're

586
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 3: up ten. It wasn't like Moran had taken over this game.

587
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 3: But then they just blew up. You guys. Mentioned a

588
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 3: bunch of those things where Marcus Smart fell out of

589
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 3: the ball, fell out of bounds with a ball in

590
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 3: his hands, he fouls Luka don just the other side,

591
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 3: your coach challenges something but ends up getting a foul

592
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 3: called against you. Such weird stuff. Although at the other

593
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 3: side Spencer Dinwidie who closed the game with those big shots,

594
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: was Jason Kidd making a great move beside Luca and Kyrie.

595
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 3: They said, hey, you're playing over Clay, over Grimes, over Kleeb.

596
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 3: If they wanted to go a little bit bigger and

597
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 3: he came through, and I think long term, I don't

598
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 3: know how the MAVs continue to start Clay beside Luca

599
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 3: and Kyrie. You look at the numbers, it ain't all

600
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 3: that good. Might it just seems like Najie Marshall or

601
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,719
Speaker 3: Quinton Grimes is going to start in place place anyway.

602
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 3: Besides that, just a just a weird ending. Although Derek

603
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 3: Lively I fell Jared Jackson junior, but he was just

604
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 3: so good coming through with boards and blocks.

605
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 2: He's awesome, and and Washington's energy, like really I thought

606
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 2: won them this game. Though. The threes were huge of

607
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 2: course from Dinwiddy there like again he was sort of

608
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 2: wide open stepping into them. But those just the energy

609
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 2: from those two, like you said, just like ending possessions

610
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 2: with the boards hitting the ground.

611
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 5: PJ.

612
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 2: Washington like getting wrapped up with somebody just screaming, got

613
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 2: the crowd back into it as well.

614
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 5: Totally.

615
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 3: They're like PJ. Washington is a glue guy for them

616
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 3: essentially when you're playing with Luca and Kyrie and he

617
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 3: comes through. But I thought the glue guys for the

618
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 3: Memphis Grizzlies we would never talked about, have we, said

619
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 3: Brandon Clark's name once this season. No, but he came

620
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 3: out and he was just guarding Luca. Even Luca was

621
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 3: taking it to him. But he just does a great

622
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 3: job defending setting screens. He just goes to the hoop

623
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 3: for offensive rebounds. Taylor Jenkins deserves Coach of the Year votes.

624
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 3: There's no doubt about that. Playing so many guys who

625
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,399
Speaker 3: are able to just do those little small things. Like

626
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 3: even Marcus Smart coming off the bench, I'm sure he

627
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 3: doesn't like it, and he does dumb things. He was,

628
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 3: you know, a mishot after shot, make dumb moves. But

629
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 3: to be playing this many guys, and especially John Morant,

630
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 3: you'd think with this how this team is playing extremely well,

631
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 3: you think John Morant's taking over the team. He ain't

632
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 3: even close. He's taking three fewer shots per game than

633
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 3: last season, by far, his fewest since twenty twenty one,

634
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 3: only playing twenty seven point seven minutes a game, and

635
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 3: he was scoreless in this first quarter. It doesn't matter.

636
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 3: The team is still good because they're playing so many

637
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 3: guys doing extremely well. So TJ gets some votes and

638
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 3: he gets a quarter zip even though he's not going

639
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 3: to the quarterfinals. Just just Cus I just wanted to say, well.

640
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 5: Zip for the quarterfinals.

641
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 2: I like that. Actually, So the West quarterfinal matchups are

642
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 2: MAVs at Thunder, like Oka see is the number one

643
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 2: seat in the West after all the stuff that happened

644
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 2: last night, that's the four to one, And then it

645
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,879
Speaker 2: is Warriors at Rockets. And a part of the Thunder

646
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 2: getting the number one seed was those other two teams

647
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 2: and the Warriors and Rockets both losing their games last

648
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 2: night and again in fashion that got their coaches upset.

649
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: So these are some pretty interesting matchups here, I think

650
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 2: in the knockout round.

651
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 5: Playoff rematch, MAVs at Thunder.

652
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right? Is that your favorite of the two?

653
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: Are you locked in on both of these tks?

654
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 5: These are both gonna be awesome.

655
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 6: I mean, MAVs and Thunder is a great game that

656
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 6: the MAVs are a pretty solid defensive team as well,

657
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 6: and we know the Thunder are the best defense in

658
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 6: the league, one of the best defenses we've seen ever. Basically,

659
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 6: if they played a great series last year, and you

660
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 6: have to imagine that the Thunder will be a little

661
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 6: bit smarter about the way they approach this game. Warriors

662
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 6: and Rockets. It's not a playoff rematch, but it is

663
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 6: a trying to get into.

664
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 5: The play in tournament rematch from last year.

665
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 6: Remember, the Rockets went on a crazy streak at the

666
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 6: end of the year trying to butt their way into.

667
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 5: The ten seed.

668
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 6: But I think it was the Warriors were able to

669
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 6: pull it off, so should be good. Warriors Nuggets was

670
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 6: a wild game. Yes, minor Cup implications because this losing

671
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 6: the game means the Warriors are playing on the road

672
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 6: against the Rockets. But these are two teams that to

673
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 6: me are in kind of similar spots. They've got an

674
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 6: offensive superstar surrounded by a bunch of question marks, and

675
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 6: it kind of played out that way.

676
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 5: I thought Warriors.

677
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 6: Nuggets last night. Steph Curry the only positive starter for

678
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 6: the Warriors. He was a plus five and a four

679
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 6: minute lost. Nikoley Jokic a plus twenty three and forty minutes,

680
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 6: so the Nuggets were a minus nineteen in the eight

681
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 6: minutes he sat, and every time Yokic would check back in,

682
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 6: it looked like he was just pissed he had to

683
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 6: get him back into this game. He's like, you blew

684
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 6: my lead? How dare you? But then he always got

685
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 6: him back into the game. The Doves are up seven

686
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 6: with two and a half minutes left. Steph Curry had

687
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 6: just made a layup, and the Nuggets outscored the Warriors

688
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 6: eleven to zero. Down the stretch, it was Jokic dancing

689
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 6: and shooting a floater over Buddy Healed. Jamal Murray gets

690
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 6: a nice deal, pushes at full court, gets a couple

691
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 6: of free throws. Gary Payton miss is a three. Jokic, sure,

692
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 6: why not, I'll just take a jumper, hits the front

693
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 6: of the rim and it somehow curls f over it.

694
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 6: An amazing touch on that one. Curry misses the three

695
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 6: because he had to chuck one up and it felt

696
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 6: like Yokic finds Gordon cutting for some free throws. Jokic

697
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 6: then on the other end, blocks Kuminga. Warriors retained the ball.

698
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 6: Wiggins tries to make a move, slips, falls, turns it over.

699
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 6: Yokic is the last man back. He's standing out of

700
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 6: the rim, beats everybody down the court, gets filed, goes

701
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 6: to the free throw line, knocks him down. That's when

702
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 6: he got hit in the face and it cut to

703
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 6: Draymond Green.

704
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 5: You know he was pissed.

705
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 6: He's like, I should have hit him in his face.

706
00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 6: It could have been me. But great stuff from the Warriors,

707
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 6: and you.

708
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 5: See the way that the war or sorry, great stuff

709
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 5: from the Nuggets, but the Warriors.

710
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 6: It was like if Curry wasn't making the threes, Like

711
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 6: if he didn't hit that step back three, that was

712
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 6: the only chance they had because Kaminga just couldn't get

713
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 6: it going. If you got to dribble it twice, it's

714
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 6: tough for Cominga to score. If you gotta dribble twice,

715
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 6: it's tough for Wiggins to score. And you saw that

716
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 6: last night. They gotta do something because they lost five straight.

717
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 6: Here they're playing on the road and they just look

718
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 6: like the strength and numbers thing ain't gonna work because

719
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 6: numbers two through thirteen can't do anything with the ball.

720
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, they missed Drey out there to some degree, but

721
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 3: Yokic would have torched Dre as he has in the past.

722
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 3: And Jokicic just he was MVP Yoach last night. He

723
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 3: was ridiculous. To play forty minutes. He's playing, by far,

724
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 3: the most he's ever played in his career. Is a

725
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 3: need for them. He just has to play and then

726
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 3: he took over in the second half and he was

727
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 3: hitting mid range shots. The mid rage ain't dead. The

728
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 3: good players have to hit them, and he was doing it.

729
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 3: And stan Van, as you said that that ball that

730
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 3: just went over the rim. Stanvan was like, wow, he

731
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 3: has got incredible touch, and it is true when you

732
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 3: see you watch it, Yes, it's so fricking soft. And

733
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 3: they they know how to beat the Warriors. This one

734
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 3: team knows how to beat the Words. They've now beat

735
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 3: them eight straight games. And it was great seeing Aaron

736
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 3: Gordon back for Jokic, just to have some help. He's

737
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 3: been out for a while. And he did come through

738
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 3: with some cutting dunks and all that. But Jokic realized

739
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 3: that Tramal Murray still ain't the same guy. Even though

740
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 3: he had a nice block against Kamika, he still isn't

741
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 3: the same guy. Yokic had to take over. The dude

742
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 3: had five steals. I mean, he almost had as many

743
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 3: steals as he had assists with only six assists in

744
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 3: this game. He's I know, we all say he can't

745
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 3: play deefense. We don't say that. A lot of people say, oh,

746
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 3: he can't play defense. What he wants he turns it on,

747
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 3: and now he has to turn it on for the

748
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 3: Warriors to be anything. Although I will say the last

749
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 3: thing about the Warriors going up against the Rockets, Dreamon

750
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 3: Green could be back for that, and we saw what

751
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 3: happened with Tarry Easton nearly getting into it with a

752
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,959
Speaker 3: fan yesterday. I mean that is the recip before a

753
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,320
Speaker 3: battle some fists next week in the quarterfinals. Yeah, because

754
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 3: there's a lot of feisty guys on the Rockets plus

755
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 3: dream Hung Green.

756
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 2: Just back to Jokic and those crazy like on off numbers.

757
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 2: To me, it's like Jokic is like us playing Tetris

758
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 2: with like a child. What I mean is like you're

759
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 2: playing Tetris. You're good at it, You're keeping that board, lo,

760
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: you're killing it. That block goes there, that block goes there,

761
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 2: and you hand them remote control to like a child,

762
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 2: and it's like they're just dropping them everywhere. It's like no,

763
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 2: you're supposed to make lines, and it starts building up,

764
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 2: biling on, like give it back to me, I'll lean

765
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 2: this up. You go to work, you know, you use.

766
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: A little tea there, let's slip it over there.

767
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 2: You thought it couldn't go like that and then it's

768
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 2: like you hand it back and it just goes up again.

769
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 2: It's like, God, he has to do everything. Help him out.

770
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 2: It's a square block. Just put it on another square block.

771
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 2: It's not that hard. I don't know.

772
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 3: I don't know.

773
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 2: It's just a weird analogy I popped in my head

774
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 2: when Trey was going over those crazy on off numbers.

775
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 5: Ceo Tetris.

776
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 3: Is that a thing?

777
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 5: I think there's a game called Pulio Tetris switch that

778
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 5: we have. It's pretty cool. They're battling each other.

779
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 2: Oh, that's fun. So the NBA Cup Quarterfinal schedule, let's

780
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 2: give you the actual dates and times here because we

781
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 2: do know this, and here it is by way of

782
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 2: the official NBA account. And all these games, well, actually

783
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 2: I should say three of the four games on tn

784
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 2: T one came on ESPN. But Tuesday, December tenth, we

785
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 2: start with Magic Bucks, followed by Magic Bucks, followed by

786
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: Mavericks Thunder. I thought I said Mavericks instead of Magic

787
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 2: but I didn't. So Orlando, Milwaukee, Dallas, Okase, those are

788
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 2: seven and nine thirty on Tuesday, and then the following

789
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 2: on ESPN it's Hawks in New York to take on

790
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 2: the Knicks, followed by the Warriors and Rockets on TNT.

791
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 3: The only games in the league those two nights. That's right,

792
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 3: nobody else play.

793
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 2: That's another funny part about this whole thing is like

794
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 2: the schedule comes out for all the teams that didn't

795
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 2: make them not and all the games that they have

796
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 2: to then now play.

797
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 6: We had two games today, so I playing basketball for

798
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 6: a month and a half here.

799
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 2: So Mike workinoff of The Athletic wrote I saw in

800
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 2: like their live blog last night quote, I think the

801
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 2: best thing to come out of the NBA Cup is

802
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 2: the concept of point differential. It has made these games

803
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 2: more fun and added more stakes to meaningless action. It's

804
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 2: like the NBA found a way to keep people paying

805
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 2: attention in a blowout with that without having to make

806
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 2: them bet on it. That was curious if you agreed

807
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: with Mike's sort of stance there and the point differential

808
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 2: hilarity of all these Cup games.

809
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 6: I do like the point differential hilarity. Okay, there's no

810
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 6: doubt about it. It was a factor in the Mavericks win.

811
00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,919
Speaker 6: It was a factor in the Knicks win even though

812
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,399
Speaker 6: well they still pull out the wind. But but the

813
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 6: Magic were able to lose by enough that it mattered.

814
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 6: So yeah, definitely keeps you entertained until the end of

815
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 6: the game.

816
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's an extra minute where you're like, Okay, what's

817
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 3: the score gonna be? What is plus minus going to

818
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 3: evolve here? That's about it.

819
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: An extra minute.

820
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I have to admit, at one point

821
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 2: last night, I'm looking at the Magic, Nick's going, what

822
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 2: are you doing, Orlando, Like you had a plus sixty

823
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 2: coming into the night, You're gonna like really blow this

824
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,279
Speaker 2: here and like let the Celtics back door. They wear

825
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 2: it way in here, and I got a little concern.

826
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 2: Now it's a huge It's tough to keep a thirty

827
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 2: seven point lead. I don't care who you're playing, Like

828
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 2: that's you sort of always were ready for the Magic

829
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 2: to like sort of chip away and do enough. But

830
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 2: I don't know.

831
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,240
Speaker 3: It's for that is where the hard hard hardest. Of course,

832
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 3: I don't know. Nobody really cares his fans I would say.

833
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 2: About the points differential.

834
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 3: I guess they did. I mean they hold on only

835
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 3: when the broadcasters talking about it late in the game,

836
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 3: that's all. That's the only time they really care about it.

837
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 2: Okay, but these games had more juice to them than

838
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 2: a normal early December game.

839
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 3: Well, the NBA Cup, the NBA Cup is a huge positive. Okay.

840
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 3: The point differential part of it is, I don't care

841
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 3: as much. It's okay. Maybe it's like a plus point

842
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 3: five maybe added a little bit of strength and that much.

843
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 3: I don't care.

844
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 2: Hold on, now, I got to keep a point differential

845
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,800
Speaker 2: of your bonus points matters point.

846
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 3: Two five, Actually take it back. Point five is too high.

847
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 3: It's fine, that's fine.

848
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: It is yeah, I mean. Mike then went on to

849
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: say that.

850
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 2: He'd like to see point differential incorporated into like making

851
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 2: playoffs and stuff like that, and I was like, I

852
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 2: don't know about that. We're too many numbers. Maybe at

853
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 2: that point, too many games and stuff like that. He's

854
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 2: saying instead of tiebreakers as like head to head, even

855
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 2: though it is still he wants point differential to be

856
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 2: much higher in terms of tiebreaker situations. Then I think

857
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 2: it currently is. It's like fifth or sixth, like down

858
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 2: the list of like did this happen? Did this happen?

859
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 2: Did this happen? When you get when you get into

860
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 2: tie breakers for the playoffs, I don't need to go

861
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: that far, but I would have it behind head to

862
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 2: head matchup. Okay, you want you want to bumped up

863
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 2: then okay.

864
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 5: Sure, but higher than conference.

865
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 2: Right right, right, right?

866
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think net rating is more important. You would

867
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 3: just do net rating.

868
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 5: More than point differential, isn't it?

869
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,240
Speaker 3: Yeah? But what is it? What's the difference?

870
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:18,400
Speaker 6: Then?

871
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 3: Why are we talking? Why wouldn't you just say net

872
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 3: rating instead of like point differential game to game, team

873
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 3: to team versus team versus team.

874
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 5: Is that one hundred possessions?

875
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:27,879
Speaker 3: Right?

876
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,240
Speaker 5: Point differential is just yeah?

877
00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah?

878
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 2: And do you have to then throw out the other conference?

879
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 2: Is it only against your conference?

880
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yes, part of the head ta team. Listen, those

881
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 3: things were hard to follow yesterday.

882
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 1: Well, the West was hilarious, So I don't know, I.

883
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 3: Don't know if anybody really cares.

884
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 2: Did you check out? It was on the app and

885
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 2: obviously on the website. NBA dot com did have like

886
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 2: live standings of like who was in and the point differentials,

887
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 2: like as all the games were going on, and then

888
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 2: like every sixty seconds it would refresh. That was sort

889
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 2: of cool.

890
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 3: That's a very good point. You know. I take back

891
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: my plus point five because when I did. When I

892
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: did look at that, they were factoring in literally every

893
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 3: basket that was happening at that moment that they were

894
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 3: going up plus whatever. So that is as a as

895
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 3: a hardcore geek fan, you look at that and it

896
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 3: is interesting. So it is a little more interesting.

897
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: Okay, JD, come on over here. Let me give you

898
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 2: an update on the pie.

899
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 5: This is look nice and it's on the pie pie

900
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:27,359
Speaker 5: like we've really hit.

901
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, basically down to one slice of pie. I

902
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,760
Speaker 2: think that's fair to call it that.

903
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 5: That's a Thanksgiving slice right there.

904
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, not a big because I have no point

905
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 2: at the end because I ate the middle of this

906
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: pie first on Monday. But I think it could be done.

907
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 2: It could be done. But I want to talk about

908
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 2: the Al tournament teams Hawker eat. That is the dilemma.

909
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 3: But let's get it.

910
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: Let's get some whipped cream on this anyway, because we'll

911
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 2: do We'll do that part at least. Yeah, I wanted

912
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 2: to go through.

913
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,879
Speaker 3: I got the nutrition fat with cream. I saw that

914
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 3: up close.

915
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 5: I'm sure it's not good number that only twenty cows.

916
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 5: I found out on Thanksgiving.

917
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,479
Speaker 6: The heavy cream and heavy whipping cream are the same

918
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 6: in case you were wondering tell me more. Umm, I

919
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 6: don't think there's much more to add. It's the same product.

920
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 6: But look, here's what they're doing in grocery stores. You

921
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 6: go to uh Kroger, you go to a Publix, you

922
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 6: see all the bottles of cream. But on a Thanksgiving

923
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 6: idiots like me who don't know better are in there shopping.

924
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 5: So they just put the word heavy on there.

925
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 6: Because I know you're looking at the recipe and you're

926
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 6: looking for it to say heavy cream. I still had

927
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 6: to text my wife to make sure that heavy cream

928
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,399
Speaker 6: and heavy whipping cream are the same. So just look

929
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 6: at the word heavy if you're buying cream, and that's

930
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 6: my cream facts for you.

931
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 2: They tell me about your favorite grocery stores.

932
00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 6: Favorite grocery stores. If you're talking just snacks or frozen food,

933
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,279
Speaker 6: it would be Trader Joe's. If you're talking closest to

934
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 6: my house, I would say Walmart.

935
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 3: Interesting.

936
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 6: If you're talking about a better selection of wines and

937
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,680
Speaker 6: liquors and beers, I'm going to Kroger. And if I

938
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 6: want to sub sandwich skeets, I'm going to publics.

939
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 5: So I'll do all of them.

940
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 2: Thank you.

941
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 5: I bought my cream at Kroger.

942
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 4: WHOA, yeah, we're down to like, I mean, crushed it, bro,

943
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 4: let's call it.

944
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: I don't know, six fights left maybe something like that.

945
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 3: You're scoop Jackson, right, scooping it in. That was hard

946
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:46,239
Speaker 3: to do.

947
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: That guy was cooking man.

948
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 3: Kroger Cream. Publics, pubs, pubs, gotta have pup.

949
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 2: Okay, First off, I just wanted to give this a

950
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 2: little update because we were talking about monetary value you

951
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 2: to these winning teams and stuff like that. In addition

952
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 2: to the actual NBA Cup trophy, there is a monetary reward.

953
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 2: So the prize pool is estimated to be for the

954
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 2: championship winning team five hundred and fourteen thousand dollars per player.

955
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 2: Losing championship team not bad, two hundred and five thousand.

956
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,040
Speaker 2: You can get yourself a watch with that. Losing semi

957
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 2: finalists one hundred and two thousand for each player, and

958
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 2: then losing quarter finalists fifty one thousand. It's pretty funny.

959
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 2: Fifty and ninety seven.

960
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it goes down to the dollars.

961
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it's got to be a tax thing. That's weird?

962
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 3: Is this part of the bri I mean I don't know.

963
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 3: I don't know where I was pining for this because

964
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 3: last year it was.

965
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: It probably is.

966
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 5: They got it.

967
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 2: Don't worry, they definitely do.

968
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,759
Speaker 1: You can raise the prices, yeah, just round those up then.

969
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

970
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 2: So the NBA also announced an NBA Cup MVP and

971
00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 2: an All Tournament team. Lebrons was your MVP last season.

972
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,240
Speaker 2: So there's obviously a few games left and the stakes

973
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 2: get higher here as we hit the knockout rounds. But

974
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: I thought it'd be fun to talk through who might

975
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 2: be making the NBA Cup All Tournament teams. And I

976
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:18,040
Speaker 2: said teams. I pluralize that we're doing two true sickle style.

977
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 2: They only do one when it actually comes to the

978
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:24,280
Speaker 2: al tournament team. My only rules right now for deciding

979
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 2: who was on the teams through the group play, player

980
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 2: must be on a quarterfinal team. Okay, so apologies to

981
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 2: like Darren Fox Jokic. The other rule was player had

982
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 2: to have played in at.

983
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 1: Least three Cup games.

984
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 3: That was just a cutoff.

985
00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 2: You had to play in at least three of the four.

986
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 2: I guess you Kitch also wouldn't have made it for

987
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 2: that reason. The only playing two. I also tried to

988
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 2: make my teams here, you know, the old two guards

989
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 2: sort of three forwards formula. So with that said, my

990
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 2: NBA Cup All Tournament First Team. I actually didn't have

991
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 2: much problems making this. This came pretty easy. Shay Gildess

992
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: Alexander thirty and a half points per game through four games,

993
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 2: seven assists, five boards, two steals, shooting fifty percent, and

994
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 2: they're the number one seed there in the West.

995
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:11,680
Speaker 1: Good stuff.

996
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 2: Sweet Luka Doncic only three games, but he's averaging thirty

997
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,120
Speaker 2: one point three points per game, shooting splits a fifty

998
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,240
Speaker 2: two to thirty seven and sixty seven at the line.

999
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 2: He was like laughing last night when he missed those

1000
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 2: final two What the hell's gone on? Yeah?

1001
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 3: Weird?

1002
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 2: Eight boards, five assists, three point three steals through the

1003
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,720
Speaker 2: Cup group games from Luca there in the three my forwards,

1004
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 2: Franz Wagner in four games, thirty and a half points

1005
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,240
Speaker 2: per game, seven and a half boards, six point three rebounds,

1006
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 2: two and a half steals, shooting fifty one percent of

1007
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 2: the floor. After I looked at it, I was like, damn,

1008
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 2: it's like basically doing what Shaye Gildas Alexander's doing. Franz Wagner,

1009
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 2: So he makes the team here, especially with the magic

1010
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 2: advancing and then my power forward if you want to

1011
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 2: call them out whatever. Karl Anthony Towns in three games,

1012
00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 2: not scoring as much as these other guys, but twenty

1013
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 2: one points per game, thirteen point three rebounds, nearly two blocks,

1014
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,280
Speaker 2: and really strong plus minus numbers. So I got Katman

1015
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,760
Speaker 2: in there. And then Jannis is the final big three games.

1016
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 2: Yannis averaging twenty nine point three points per game, seventy

1017
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 2: five percent from the field, seven boards, nine assists, two blocks. Now,

1018
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 2: he has a lot of turnovers, but man, those are

1019
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: pretty impressive numbers. And we talked about him in the

1020
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 2: MVP race for crying out loud yesterday. So Shay, Luca, Franz, Wagner,

1021
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 2: Kat and Yannis good sound solid? Y Yeah for the

1022
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 2: first team. Yeah, second team's a little more fun if

1023
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 2: you're sticking with the same rules. I was torn on

1024
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 2: the guards. I thought Damian Lillard was a walk. Actually

1025
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 2: he played in three games, he scored basically just as

1026
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,479
Speaker 2: much as Jannis. He's hit sixteen three pointers, shooting fifty

1027
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 2: percent clip from deep, so that's some pretty impressive And

1028
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,879
Speaker 2: then I went I went with Steph Curry just over

1029
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,319
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson or Trey Young. I wouldn't be upset with

1030
00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 2: any one of those guys being your second guard. I went, Steph.

1031
00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 2: I know, it's sort of like the numbers are not

1032
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 2: like Steph, Steph God like MVP numbers, but man, the

1033
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 2: guys still like just a the'st like thirty nine percent

1034
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 2: from three during the Cup play and stuff like that

1035
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 2: on a whole bunch of attempts. The three forwards Jalen

1036
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 2: Johnson for the Hawks. Okay, he's averaging twenty twelve and

1037
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 2: seven through the Cup games. Good efficiency and nearly three

1038
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 2: stocks when you jam stocks and blocks together. And then

1039
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 2: my other two bigs two rockets. Elprin she gun averaging

1040
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 2: nineteen nine and eight, So was scoring not as high

1041
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 2: as some of these other guys, but really good defense

1042
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 2: as well, rockets are through. He's just I think he

1043
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 2: had I want to say he had two triple doubles

1044
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 2: in group action and then this one caught me by surprise.

1045
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 2: But I'm putting him on there, and it's not just

1046
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 2: because I'm a homer. Dylan Brooks sixty three percent shooting

1047
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 2: from deep in the in the in the four Cup games.

1048
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 2: Holy crap. So he was been pretty instrumental, obviously made

1049
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 2: some big plays too in some of these games. So

1050
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 2: I went with Dame Steph, Jalen Johnson, Sheng Gun, and

1051
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks. Dylan Brooks is like the three in that situation.

1052
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 2: Anyone I'm missing there the jump out to you guys.

1053
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 5: No love for DeAndre Hunter. What a surprise. I don't

1054
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 5: know his stats.

1055
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 6: I just know I saw him play one great NBA

1056
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 6: Cup game live.

1057
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 2: No, he's been good.

1058
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, I like it.

1059
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 6: I like the inclusions. Maybe you would include Torrian Prince.

1060
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 6: He's never lost an NBA Cup game. Undefeated with the

1061
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 6: Lakers last year, undefeated this year with the Bucks, I

1062
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,320
Speaker 6: respect and what He's shooting fifty percent from three, fifty

1063
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 6: six percent from three, so I'm sure his numbers during

1064
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:34,560
Speaker 6: Cup games we're pretty good.

1065
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, take the Bucks to win it all. This guy's

1066
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 3: the new Norse coal Man.

1067
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 2: He just.

1068
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 5: Right, the new Norris Cole.

1069
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 2: Would be your front runner for NBA Cup MVP. Who's

1070
00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,440
Speaker 2: been the best of probably some of those guys I

1071
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 2: named for the first team. I mean, I guess the

1072
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 2: Bucks are undefeated, the Knicks are undefeated. Those those are

1073
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 2: the only two undefeated teams.

1074
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:00,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, huh, do you have to pick.

1075
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 2: From one of those teams or do you go, you know,

1076
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 2: a shade or a front or something like that.

1077
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 3: Probably, I mean Jannis is competition though I'm not sure

1078
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 3: if this factored into your your teams. No, it shouldn't.

1079
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 3: But they played the Pistons to Heat, the Raptors and

1080
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 3: the Pacers, literally four teams that may not make the playoffs,

1081
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 3: maybe because a group of death. But but then you

1082
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 3: could say Jalen Johnson monster playing against the Celtics and Calves. Yeah,

1083
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 3: you know some bad ones there, Bulls and Wizards. Yeah,

1084
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 3: that was the Hawks. What a weird what a weird group.

1085
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 3: They beat the Celtics, they beat the Calves, They lost

1086
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 3: to the Bulls and beat That's a weird team, weird

1087
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 3: thing that's happening there. Did they lose to the Bulls

1088
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 3: in this competition? Yeah, but they've lost to the Wizards

1089
00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 3: twice this season, three and one. In this group.

1090
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:57,959
Speaker 1: They just lost.

1091
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 3: They played three times already.

1092
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've played in three.

1093
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 6: They may have played them back to back in October,

1094
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 6: like the last week of October.

1095
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 3: They played them.

1096
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was like the two good games that the

1097
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:07,880
Speaker 5: Wizards have played.

1098
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 2: It is a little odd that we don't have the

1099
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 2: Celtics or the Cavs into the knockout round and despite

1100
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 2: being clearly the best teams in the Eastern Conference for

1101
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 2: the first quarter mark of the season. But Hawks did it.

1102
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, the NBA Cup schedulers are happy those guys can

1103
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 3: be in the playoffs and fight for the NBA Finals. Well,

1104
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 3: you have other teams playing there.

1105
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 2: Happy. We had some news yesterday, guys, Paul Millsap retiring

1106
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,760
Speaker 2: from the NBA after sixteen seasons in the league. Champs

1107
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 2: of ESPN was the first to break this. The four

1108
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 2: time All Star was the number forty seventh pick in

1109
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 2: the six draft by the Jazz. Quickly became a really

1110
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 2: dependable score, pretty good low post defender, especially here in Atlanta.

1111
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 2: Like his game really took off, made a bunch of

1112
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,719
Speaker 2: All Star teams here. Millsap walks away from the game

1113
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,919
Speaker 2: as one of just eight players to ever total five

1114
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 2: hundred threes one thousand blocks in one thousand steel over

1115
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 2: their career. So Paul Millsapp officially hanging.

1116
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 6: It up and look at his face when he was

1117
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:10,359
Speaker 6: told about that stash, Like, whoa, maybe that was also

1118
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 6: my face when I was watching Paul Millsapp highlights yesterday

1119
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,240
Speaker 6: and remembered that he was part of the Hawks squad

1120
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:17,919
Speaker 6: that had the mismatched.

1121
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 5: Jerseys red top, black shorts. Weird look.

1122
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 6: But Paul Millsapp was pretty good here in Atlanta. Four

1123
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 6: seasons as a Hawk, four All Star appearances, won a

1124
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,440
Speaker 6: Player of the Month award, had to split it five ways,

1125
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 6: and I think he's maybe one of the new Hall

1126
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 6: of Very Good guys because you're seeing these highlights back

1127
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:36,520
Speaker 6: and I'm like, hey, there's Al Horford.

1128
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 5: He's definitely a Hall of Famer now won an NBA.

1129
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,839
Speaker 6: Championship, has extended his career plan longer than Paul Millsapp has.

1130
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,320
Speaker 6: Obviously has the two championships at Florida as well. Horford's

1131
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 6: probably getting in Paul Millsapp, I doubt it, but he

1132
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 6: was a very good player, So.

1133
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 5: He is a Hall of very good representative for me.

1134
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's one of those guys that probably won't be

1135
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 3: remembered twenty years from now when you discuss, well, who's that,

1136
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 3: Who's the All Star that you'll never remember, like LaMarcus

1137
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 3: Aldridge is part of that sort of discussion. It's a

1138
00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,719
Speaker 3: better career than Paul mills Paul Millsap just four All Stars, Yeah,

1139
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 3: with the Atlanta Hawks, all with the Atlanta Hawks in

1140
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 3: every single one of his seasons. I forget that if

1141
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,400
Speaker 3: you think, yeah, because he always remember Paul Milap as

1142
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:17,919
Speaker 3: a member of the Atlanta Hawks that he played longer

1143
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 3: than four years, but he was with Utah way longer.

1144
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 3: He was such an undersized guy that just wasn't athletic

1145
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,720
Speaker 3: enough even in his Utah days. I flashed back my highlights,

1146
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 3: go to a guy that would pump and be able

1147
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 3: to hang in the air just long enough to scoop

1148
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 3: it in. But he was so undersized that power for it,

1149
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 3: and yeah, it was part of that Hawks front court

1150
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 3: that was also undersized him in Horford and couldn't go

1151
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:43,720
Speaker 3: and win. But he just played so hard. I couldn't

1152
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 3: believe that he got Defensive Player of the Year votes

1153
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 3: and was on an All Defensive team. That was shocking

1154
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 3: to me looking back at what he accomplished. But he

1155
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 3: is sixteen years, played a long time, But you did

1156
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 3: forget about it a lot.

1157
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you do think of him as Hawk more

1158
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,160
Speaker 2: then probably jazz player, even though he was there for

1159
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:05,760
Speaker 2: a long time. I had forgotten he was a forty

1160
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,320
Speaker 2: seventh pick, you know, like going that deep. That's a

1161
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,879
Speaker 2: hell of a fine for an incredible career. And yeah,

1162
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I wrote down Paul Millsapp finished fifth

1163
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 2: and Defensive Player of the Year in fifteen sixteen. That

1164
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 2: was the year kawhi Wan Draymond Green was second, and

1165
00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 2: then it was like Hassan Whiteside and DeAndre Jordan and

1166
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:24,919
Speaker 2: then Paul Millsapp got some votes, but he made the

1167
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:26,919
Speaker 2: All Defensive second team.

1168
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's and.

1169
00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 1: The Hawks were really good defense that year.

1170
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,279
Speaker 2: That's why you got the vote.

1171
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, horror forgot something too.

1172
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,400
Speaker 2: And man, they had a really good year where they

1173
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:39,440
Speaker 2: won sixty games, but then ran into Lebron James and Mecalfs.

1174
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 2: I mean, probably his best chance obviously to go deep.

1175
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was unfortunate, you know, Paul was so unfortunate

1176
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 6: for Paul Millsapp. His whole run with the Hawks was

1177
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 6: during the Lebron era.

1178
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 2: What Paul Millsap's greatest highlight, Man, I mean I watched

1179
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 2: I watched a dunk reel of Paul Millsapp and I

1180
00:51:58,840 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 2: was happy to see that.

1181
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 6: I saw his best dunk live. It was back when

1182
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:03,320
Speaker 6: the Hawks had like the Carmel court, you know, like

1183
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,319
Speaker 6: the yeah, before they had switched to the triangle. Look,

1184
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 6: he's got a big dunk on he goes by Rashid Wallace.

1185
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 6: Maybe it's on Brandon Bass. Okay, this is an SD

1186
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,200
Speaker 6: clip I'm talking about here, But he really cocks it back.

1187
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 2: In the jams A I think his best like highlight.

1188
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 2: And this was completely forgotten to me until I did

1189
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 2: a little research esterday. It's no Tracey McGrady thirteen in

1190
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 2: what was it thirty three seconds, but Paul Millsap scored

1191
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 2: like eleven points in twenty eight seconds versus the Heat.

1192
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 2: Do you remember this game, like way back in the day,

1193
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:37,640
Speaker 2: he like never took threes and then hit three threes

1194
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 2: and then another bucket like off a weird rebound to

1195
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,280
Speaker 2: score eleven points to push the game into overtime against

1196
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 2: the Heat in the final. Again, I'm talking twenty eight seconds.

1197
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:47,919
Speaker 3: Of the game.

1198
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 2: They went on to win the game too, incredibly. I

1199
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: think it was twenty ten. It was against Miami Heat. Yeah,

1200
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 2: so that's I don't know it.

1201
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 1: I was like wow, and like in Washing I was like, oh, yeah,

1202
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: we talked about this.

1203
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,319
Speaker 2: I do remember this game now, but like it's never

1204
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 2: talked about, like with the the McGrady performance of thirteen

1205
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:06,320
Speaker 2: and thirty five seconds?

1206
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 5: What is it thirty three? I think Okay, I had

1207
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 5: it right.

1208
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 2: Okay. Anyway, So Paul Millsap eleven points and twenty eight seconds.

1209
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 2: Do you remember where were you?

1210
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 3: Where were you man?

1211
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,879
Speaker 6: Lebron James twelve and one in the playoffs against Paul Millsap. Yeah,

1212
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 6: I guess it's that Millsap probably got to win with

1213
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:23,000
Speaker 6: the Nuggets.

1214
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess. Yeah, they kept spanking them. It wasn't

1215
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 3: Corver oh in sixteen. No, it was probably just twelve that.

1216
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 5: It was a crazy rud back.

1217
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, I remember the fifteen sixteen year. That was

1218
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 3: a good year when the Hawks were rolling and they

1219
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,400
Speaker 3: had that five player of the month month and the

1220
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 3: Warriors came here part of their seventy three nine uh season.

1221
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 3: And I say here in Atlanta because that was a

1222
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 3: pack stadium. It was super duper fun. That's what I remember.

1223
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:58,720
Speaker 2: That's your last Hawks game, last time you got free tickets?

1224
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 3: Why were your mad? Because I say, I want to

1225
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 3: watch the Atlanta Hawks in Las Vegas and area Atlanta.

1226
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 2: It's a little odd. I just wouldn't want to. I mean,

1227
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 2: I won't be upset if the Hawks are playing, But

1228
00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 2: it's like, you can go see don't you want to

1229
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 2: see other teams?

1230
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:12,880
Speaker 3: No, I've never seen another team before.

1231
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 2: Okay, well we've never seen a game in Vegas. In fact,

1232
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:18,640
Speaker 2: we've never even been in this arena.

1233
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 3: That's so true.

1234
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 5: We were supposed to have seen we have seen games

1235
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:23,000
Speaker 5: in Vegas.

1236
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:29,880
Speaker 2: Not in this arena, not in different Yes, we almost

1237
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 2: went to a UFC event, but it was ending when

1238
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 2: we tried to get in.

1239
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,120
Speaker 3: We're dumb. We didn't know the time zone different.

1240
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 2: No, we forgot all the.

1241
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:39,360
Speaker 3: Fights started.

1242
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:40,240
Speaker 4: It's weird.

1243
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 3: Five.

1244
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's too early.

1245
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 2: It's too early for fighting. Yeah for basketball, that was

1246
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 2: their eleven hours started early, right, Yeah, that's right, all right,

1247
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 2: pick them game.

1248
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 1: Last night. I did have the Mavericks.

1249
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 2: I was the one guy that had Dallas and holy crap,

1250
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,320
Speaker 2: like you said TK earlier, was like, bro, that's a

1251
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,320
Speaker 2: loss for me, And then suddenly no it's not, and

1252
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 2: I get the victory. They covered. They won by five,

1253
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 2: so it was a four and a half point line.

1254
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 2: So what's tonight's tell?

1255
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 3: As well? A strange one the Orlando Magic going into

1256
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,759
Speaker 3: Philadelphia where the Philadelphia Nienteery six Ers are three and

1257
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 3: a half point underdogs, and because the Orlando Magic are

1258
00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 3: so good and Embiid is out, I figured you guys

1259
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:20,400
Speaker 3: would all take Orlando. Why wouldn't you? That line seems

1260
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 3: way too small and going on bet MGM, that's why

1261
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,439
Speaker 3: everybody is on Orlando. So I took Philly. You guys

1262
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:30,279
Speaker 3: all took Orlando. I knew that going in. It's just

1263
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 3: a strange line. Three and a half points. Now, Joel

1264
00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 3: Embiid didn't play yesterday. There's rumors that he could be

1265
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 3: playing tonight by Paul George. He played yesterday, so he's

1266
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 3: not playing tonight in a back to back. So it's

1267
00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:46,400
Speaker 3: a strange that I would think that Orlando should be

1268
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,239
Speaker 3: a bigger favorite. But at the same time, I guess

1269
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 3: that is in Philly because Philly just got back Charlotte.

1270
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,879
Speaker 3: It just got by Charlotte yesterday in a super close game. Yeah,

1271
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 3: so this line seems small. Yeah, okay, but Embid also

1272
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:04,720
Speaker 3: out yesterday for knee injury management and personal reasons.

1273
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: You don't see that they're still trying to find the snitch.

1274
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 3: Well, there still work in the case. I think I

1275
00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,560
Speaker 3: think the sixers are trying to say, get off us.

1276
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 3: He's got two reasons not to be personal reasons. Does

1277
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 3: he have personal reasons? I don't know. We need we

1278
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 3: need another snitches.

1279
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 2: Hopefully everything's okay. Well, I've got exciting news. Here's I

1280
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 2: can't even talk anymore.

1281
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 1: The close.

1282
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 2: Something happens to my tongue. Somebody was saying, it makes

1283
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:35,879
Speaker 2: it difficult to talk. We are down to the final bite.

1284
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 2: In the end, it took me three days to eat

1285
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 2: the giant Costco pumpkin pie. But dare I say, I'm

1286
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 2: pretty proud of myself.

1287
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 6: Days two and you were on fire Days two and three,

1288
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:51,919
Speaker 6: you were shoveling it down.

1289
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:59,040
Speaker 2: I feel like Kobeyashi. Let's sing some karaoke boys. So

1290
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,239
Speaker 2: here it is final bite.

1291
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:02,400
Speaker 1: Everybody knows the rules.

1292
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 4: Uh.
