39
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 5: A nice batch this week. I'll start us off, Hey, lads,

40
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 5: I have been doing a ton of NBA sporicle quizzes

41
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 5: and one player I always miss when listening scores is

42
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 5: LaMarcus Aldridge. Is it just me that has forgotten how

43
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 5: completely dominant he was for Portland. Just wondering if there

44
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 5: are any other players from the last couple of decades

45
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 5: that you guys think quietly slipped under the radar. Ps.

46
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 5: Has JD been keeping up to date with the Yasmin

47
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 5: and Jeff drama on Coronation Street? That's from Adam in Belfast? JD,

48
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 5: What the heck is Adam talking about?

49
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: Ooh that Jeff? I hate Jeff. Yeah, I'm about twenty

50
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: episodes back, give or take, which seems like a lie,

51
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: but it's it's it's a daily show, so I'm about

52
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: four weeks back, and uh so I'm not completely up

53
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: to date. I've seen on the Coronation Street Instagram that's

54
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: something BIG's coming and they've been setting it up for

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: a long time because Jeff's been gaslighting and abusing Yasmine

56
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: for a while now. He made her believe that she

57
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: had an alcohol problem by f making her think she

58
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: was forgetful about stuff. He locked her in a box

59
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: for a few hours. It was it was a magic Yeah,

60
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 1: well yes, sort of. He killed her favorite chicken, Charlotte Bronte,

61
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: and then served it to her for dinner.

62
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: Are you are you is the storyline.

63
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, but she stands by him, and

64
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: her granddaughter is the only one who seems to see

65
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: Jeff for who he is. But something BIG's coming. They've

66
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: been setting it up for months and and and I

67
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: appreciate you asking, Adam, and I can't wait to find out.

68
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: My grip box is filling up and I gotta, I gotta.

69
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 5: Get on it.

70
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: How old are Yasmin and Jeff.

71
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: They're older, they're id say they're in their sixties.

72
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh okay, late sixties granddaughter?

73
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, oh yeah wow. It speaks to wild

74
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 5: wild stuff. And let me apologize to Yazmen at the

75
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 5: pronunciation there. I don't want to be a storyline in

76
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 5: Coronation Street from the idiot podcaster pronouncer Nemra. Let's get

77
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 5: to the basketball part of it. A guy that has

78
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 5: sort of slipped under the radar with how good he

79
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 5: has been. I think Dwight Howard has slipped under the radar.

80
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 5: I think people remember him for the negative events of

81
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 5: his career more than how dominant he was. That has

82
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 5: just overtaken the Dwight Howard resume. Not being serious enough

83
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 5: to win is probably one of the bullet points on

84
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 5: his resume right now, the field run with the Lakers,

85
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 5: run ins with Kobe, all those stops at the end

86
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 5: of his career where his teammates were apparently happy to

87
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 5: see him go, reportedly screaming and yelling into their phones

88
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 5: how happy they were to see him go. He's remembered

89
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 5: more for his flatulence, I think, than his dominant play.

90
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 5: It's it's crazy because he's a Hall of Famer, but

91
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 5: he also played defense. I think that was his primary attribute.

92
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 5: Although you know, he was good on the offensive end,

93
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 5: and people don't care about defense, So I think Dwight

94
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 5: a Hall of Famer is more. I know he's got

95
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 5: his reputation back a little bit this year, but still,

96
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 5: I mean, he hasn't been in a lot of people's

97
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 5: eyes dominant for nearly a decade, which is wild to

98
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 5: think about him. Mean, he has great six seven years

99
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 5: to start his career and now he's.

100
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 3: Played a pretty long career.

101
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 5: This is year sixteen for him. He'll definitely play a

102
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 5: seventeen eighteen, so that's pretty solid. I think people just

103
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 5: forget about how dominant Dwight was. Anybody else got something

104
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 5: to add, Yeah.

105
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: I mean, just off of Dwight. You sort of slipped

106
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 2: it in there, like it feels like he has sort

107
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: of saved face a little bit this year, right like

108
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: in building back up somewhat of a reputation because I

109
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: agree with everything you said there. I mean, he was,

110
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,119
Speaker 2: you know, he was basically a joke for a couple

111
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,919
Speaker 2: of years, but had played pretty damn good basketball with

112
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 2: with the Lebron and the Lakers this year, and I

113
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 2: think had had gotten a little bit of respect back

114
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 2: on his name, just a little bit, and maybe would

115
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 2: continue to do so if this season continued or the

116
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: next couple, Like you said, I will, I'll hat a

117
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 2: guy that I just always forget how great he was.

118
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 2: And I guess it's similar, maybe in a weird way,

119
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: to LaMarcus Aldridge. Jermaine O'Neil. Jermain O'Neil was a damn

120
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 2: good basketball player, and I you know, I forget about

121
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 2: him a lot, but I looked it up. You know,

122
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: six time All Star, three time All NBA, played over

123
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: a thousand games in the league, scored thirteen thousand points

124
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: a couple twenty and ten seasons in there. I think

125
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 2: three averaged twenty four points per game once for Indy,

126
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: and I had totally forgotten that he finished third in

127
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: an MVP vote one year three h four two. Well,

128
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 2: two guys going in the Hall of Fame in Kevin

129
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 2: Garnett and Tim Duncan. So Jermain O'Neil was a damn

130
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: good player. There were better players at his position than

131
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: him during his run, but you know all those actly,

132
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: I just said, that's a pretty good basketball player. And

133
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 2: I do forget about Jermaine O'Neil from time to time.

134
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 3: Well, he was just trending recently for the Malice in

135
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: the Palace anniversary. So yeah, Jermaine O'Neil, Yeah, he was awesome.

136
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 3: The main thing I'll always think about Jermaine O'Neil is

137
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 3: I was convinced he was left handed for the entirety

138
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,239
Speaker 3: of his career. I don't know why. I just played

139
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 3: like a left handed guy, I thought, But yeah, Jermane

140
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 3: O'Neil was great. Another guy from the early two thousands

141
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 3: or you know, mid twenty twenty tens Amari Stoudemier. We

142
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 3: talked all day. We've talked six times about Sean Marion's

143
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 3: case for the Hall of Fame. Amari Stottamaier was the

144
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 3: man in Phoenix, right behind Steve Nash. He was All

145
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: NBA six times, he was an or five times. He's

146
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 3: an All Star six times. Sean Marion obviously had the

147
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 3: longevity over Amari. But Amari, for you know, when he

148
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 3: was at his peak, when he was playing in Phoenix,

149
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 3: even that first season in New York, he was just

150
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: an explosive finisher. He was All NBA First Team at

151
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 3: one point, they considered him the best center in the league,

152
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: despite nobody really being convinced that Amari was totally a center.

153
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 3: But nobody thinks that Amaro Stadamayer has a Hall of

154
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: Fame case at all. But when you look at it,

155
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: he had like seven incredible seasons, like top of the

156
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 3: Pops kind of seasons. That's a good one.

157
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, I've I'm going to throw Manu in there

158
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 4: because I think Manu just doesn't get the recognition that

159
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 4: he deserves, you know, because he was on the Spurs

160
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 4: and they were all such a good team together. But

161
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 4: when you look at his resume, I mean, he's an

162
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 4: absolute lock for the Hall of Fame for me, but

163
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 4: I'm not sure if he's going to get in. I

164
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 4: mean I think he probably will. You know, four time champion,

165
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 4: All Star, All NBA Third Team twice. I think that

166
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 4: gets forgotten. He should have been Finals MVP in two

167
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 4: thousand and five, and he's had the European success and

168
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 4: the Argentina success. So but I he he is a lock.

169
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 2: Well like with the international play. Yes, yeah, I don't

170
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: hope you're right. I hope you're right.

171
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 3: I don't think he slipped under the radar at all.

172
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 2: Hell no, I do.

173
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 4: I do because I think I think people. I don't

174
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 4: think think. I think people like obviously look at Tim

175
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 4: Duncan and then they sort of lump Tony Parker and

176
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 4: Manu together. I don't think enough people really appreciate it.

177
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 2: I don't think Gennobil's better than Tony Parker. Am I wrong?

178
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 3: I would say he has a more at least a

179
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 3: more well liked legacy in the NBA for sure. You know,

180
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 3: everybody is a manager, nobili fan. Nobody's saying, oh man,

181
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 3: this guy's terrible. It's not like when he first came

182
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: to the league and everybody was calling him a flopper.

183
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 3: By the time Manu retired, he was beloved.

184
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 4: Yeah. I just I think when you look at his

185
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 4: pure numbers for what he did in the NBA, they

186
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 4: don't jump off the page. Actually it's what I think

187
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 4: a lot of people look at. But his entire basketball resume.

188
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 4: I mean, he's he's a certainty for me, and I

189
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 4: hope he does get in in his first try. But

190
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 4: you know, sometimes players like that dude just get overlooked.

191
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 4: You know, people just don't quite appreciate how how good

192
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 4: he was and how important he was to the Spurs.

193
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just, yeah, you have genobili On like your

194
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: Mount rushmore of his players of all time. So sure

195
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 2: to you, he's under the radar, but maybe yeah to

196
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 2: everyone else, maybe let's whar people think greed, disagree with

197
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 2: the man who being under the radar? Or who else

198
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 2: do we forget? There's obviously a ton next question, it's

199
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 2: up nothing but layups. I was watching the Warriors highlights

200
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 2: from the twenty seventeen eighteen season, and I noticed it

201
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: didn't matter if Kevin Durant hit five threes in a row.

202
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 2: The crowd was never as loud as one transition Steph

203
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: Curry three. So my question is there a player on

204
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 2: another team that seems to get his home crowd going

205
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: more than anyone else on the team, even if he

206
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 2: isn't the best player. Also, I can't think of a

207
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 2: good name for the role that that person would play.

208
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,680
Speaker 2: Turn up, love you guys awesome both those questions from Brian.

209
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, a guy that may not be the best

210
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,079
Speaker 2: player on the team before whatever reason, he's obviously a

211
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 2: fan favorite of some sort and his home crowd just

212
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: erupts when he does something impressive and wone come to mind, Trey.

213
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 3: I think there's a couple of different genres of this

214
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 3: fan favorite, a player who gets the crowd completely fired up.

215
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 3: On one hand, you got the novelty acts and you

216
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 3: know the guys that are kind of at the end

217
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 3: of the bench, the absolute freak shows in the NBA.

218
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: You're Boban, Brian Scalabrini, Alex Caruso, Kent Baysmore, Taco Fall,

219
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 3: the unusual guys who everybody loves when they come into

220
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 3: the game because more than likely your team is having

221
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 3: a blowout victory and we're gonna get to see something

222
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 3: silly happen here that happens all the time. Everybody's familiar

223
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 3: with those. The other genre, I would say is the

224
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 3: our guys, guys you've raised up from the mud to

225
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 3: become a valuable player on your team. A couple that

226
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 3: come to mind for me are Fred van Vliet and

227
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 3: Pascal Siakam with the Raptors since they came through the

228
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: G League system. And then for the Celtics, Marcus Smart,

229
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 3: the guy is like the heart and soul of their team.

230
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 3: And you know, he could score three points in the game,

231
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 3: but if he dives on the floor ten times, the

232
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: crowd's going crazy.

233
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would add to that list. Maybe a

234
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 2: Patty Mills. Sure, you know, playing so long in San Antonio,

235
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 2: I feel like when Patty Mills hits the three, that

236
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 2: place goes bonkers too.

237
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 3: You want to talk about it under the radar guy

238
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: from the Spurs. Maybe Patty Mills lately.

239
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, Patty is great. He's been great for Australia too.

240
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 4: Another guy is a bit of a journeyman, but everywhere

241
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 4: he goes, the crowd gets into it because he comes

242
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 4: off the bench and is just a walking bucket because

243
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 4: whenever he gets a ball, they just go Lou when

244
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 4: it's Lou Williams. So sort of started there with Michael Cooper.

245
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 4: The Lakers used to do that back in the day.

246
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 4: But I think. I think that's what you know. People

247
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 4: know when Lou comes out, it's like, great, we're going

248
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 4: to see some guy just go out there and go

249
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 4: on a bit of a scoring stretch.

250
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's why it's going to be so weird if

251
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 5: the NBA does come back, that you don't have this

252
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 5: factor whatsoever with the crowd. Yeah. Let you know, the

253
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 5: Golden State Warriors not in the playoffs, but a team

254
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 5: like that just wouldn't have that momentum, that adrenaline pumping

255
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 5: through their veins when Steph lights it up. And we've

256
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 5: been here in Atlanta, and I think a few years

257
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 5: ago Kyle Korver was that kind of guy. Specifically with

258
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 5: the threes. You kind of have to know what's going in.

259
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 5: When you're talking about the threes, you got to feel

260
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 5: like it's going in for the fans. And I wonder,

261
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 5: I wonder if it's crazy enough to actually pipe in

262
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 5: some music for the players on the floor. Is that

263
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 5: stupid pipeing some music, pipeing some fans. It's probably stupid.

264
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 5: It's not going to happen for this summer. I would say,

265
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 5: you're in, you're playing for the for the guys on

266
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,599
Speaker 5: the floor. Yeah, playing they're going up and pipe in

267
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 5: some fans just as so it's not squeaky squeak, and

268
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 5: it's not like you're playing in an empty gym. I

269
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 5: wonder if they try that out just to give it.

270
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you've been talking about I mean, we just

271
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 2: talked about it on the Updown Report yesterday on that podcast, Like, Yeah,

272
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: the idea as the viewer getting virtual fans and task

273
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: you talked about having you you'd like to in theory

274
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 2: hears things like, you know, fake crowds, put in stuff

275
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: like that. But the next level is will the players

276
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 2: hear that? That's interesting, yeah, because I guess in a way,

277
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 2: you could just give that to the viewer. But in

278
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 2: my head I always thought that the players would be

279
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 2: hearing it too. It's weird. That's strange, weird.

280
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,199
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wonder. I think I think it's going to

281
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 5: be silent in there.

282
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 2: Oh man, what team if we were to take the

283
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 2: current sixteen playoffs and that's all we do with no fans,

284
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: it'd be a fun debate to have, like which team

285
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 2: is hurt the most by not having live fans in

286
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: a playoff game? And which team is actually like hurt

287
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 2: the least. Maybe because of their fan base, and it's

288
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 2: not that crazy of Jem to play it.

289
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 4: I don't know.

290
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: It's something we can to talk out at a later podcast.

291
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 5: I would throw in as a name for this type

292
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 5: of players, as Brian asked, firecracker. It makes the place

293
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 5: go boom.

294
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, firecracker, Ah, firecracker, Patty Mills.

295
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 5: Sure, sure, he's a little firecracker, all right, next one here, Hey,

296
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 5: no dunks. I was thinking about how weird it will

297
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 5: be for a kid in twenty years to be looking

298
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 5: at NBA stat holograms on Wikipedia and see twenty nineteen

299
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 5: twenty season canceled or shortened due to global pandemic. Has

300
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 5: there ever been a time you've been looking through old

301
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 5: stats in NBA history and seen something? Thanksually the entertainment

302
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 5: Dve in Calgary, but from Toronto, Lee, you've seen anything

303
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 5: odd when looking through the NBA almen.

304
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 4: Acts, Well, yeah, whenever it comes to minute Bowl Like,

305
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 4: he just had some of the craziest lines of all times.

306
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 4: So I pulled out a couple that I really liked. Here.

307
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 4: He had a two point thirteen block eleven rebound game.

308
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 4: He had another six point twelve block seventeen rebound game.

309
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 4: And at one stage he had a triple double with

310
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 4: ten points, fifteen blocks, and nineteen rebounds in a game. Now,

311
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 4: I'm not I haven't verified this, but apparently in college

312
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 4: Minu Bowl had a game he had thirty two points,

313
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 4: twenty nine rebounds, and.

314
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 2: Thirty one blocks.

315
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 4: That's what.

316
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 2: That's what. That's what the internet is saying.

317
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 4: Now where I've found it, I've found it with other

318
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 4: you know, big lines that did happen. You know, like

319
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 4: fat Lever had thirty one point, sixteen rebounds, twenty and

320
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 4: he says Shack had twenty four to twenty eight and fifteen.

321
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 4: So it may have happened in college that minew Ball

322
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 4: nearly had a thirty thirty thirty with blocks. Yeah, at some.

323
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 2: Point in that game, maybe stop driving into new Ball.

324
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: Just take take the jumper man, take them three. But

325
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: that's the thing.

326
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 4: If he's getting all those blocks, has he getting all

327
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 4: those rebounds as well?

328
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good one. Minew

329
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 2: Bull lines those are odd anything else, Guys.

330
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 3: Every Wilt Chamberlain stat just seems messed up or like

331
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: a misprint when you actually look at his like his

332
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 3: basketball reference page. The one that sticks out to me

333
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 3: the most though, is the sixty one to sixty two season.

334
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: He played forty eight point five minutes per game. He

335
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: averaged more minutes per game than there are in an

336
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 3: NBA game.

337
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 2: Crazy, Yeah, overtime, that is a weird.

338
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 3: One overtime, But he also was ejected from one game

339
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 3: after playing a mere forty minutes, so he must have

340
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 3: gone into so many overtimes while also averaging fifty points

341
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: a game that season.

342
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 5: Sort of a long minut Bowl. A defensive center came

343
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 5: from the continent of Africa, Dick Cambi mctumbo, who was

344
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 5: an All Star in his rookie year, which you know,

345
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 5: not every superstar gets. You know, Lebron wasn't an All

346
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 5: Star and his rookie year, Kobe wasn't an All Stars

347
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 5: rookie year. But if you're an All Star in your

348
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 5: rookie year, you're gonna be Rookie of the Year at

349
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 5: the end of the year. But to Kembe didn't win

350
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 5: Rookie of the Year, that's just strange and went to

351
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,360
Speaker 5: Larry Johnson that year. You know, the guys, the superstars

352
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 5: that get, you know, an All Star honor like MJ

353
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 5: or Shack or Tim Dunkin and the Rookie Year. They

354
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 5: also hold up the ROI at the end of it.

355
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 5: I would think that a guy who was an All

356
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 5: Star and didn't win Rookie of the Year is probably

357
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 5: the only guy who's ever done it is Dick Cami

358
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 5: mc tumbo.

359
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 3: It's a guess.

360
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: It's a mild guess.

361
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 5: But I wasn't gonna go through all the Allman accidents.

362
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,719
Speaker 2: Did we ask mc tumble about that when we had

363
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: him on the starters?

364
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 5: Remember, no, he was he was holding court after he

365
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 5: was on our show, and everybody was around him, and

366
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 5: you know, to Cambe, just be in to Cambe told

367
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 5: the story of him being an All Star in his

368
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 5: rookie year and not winning at the end of it.

369
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, So we talked to him about it, just not

370
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 2: on the area.

371
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 5: Well, he was talking to everybody else. It's not like

372
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 5: we were asking any questions to Cambay just was willing

373
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 5: to chat and chat and chat to anyone, to anyone

374
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 5: who would listen. He was great.

375
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 2: That was one of my favorite moments at the starters,

376
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,719
Speaker 2: Just Tumbo's sitting at our desk and everybody, just like

377
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 2: you said, gathered around him as he held court. Just

378
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,680
Speaker 2: telling stories. Oh my god, it's amazing, all right, next

379
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 2: one here, no dunks. I was watching some behind closed

380
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 2: doors Bundesliga this past weekend. The soccer looks the same

381
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 2: as always, but hearing the echoing shouts of players and

382
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 2: coaches instead of the roar of the crowd is very weird. Yes,

383
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 2: German soccer back in our lives. What we're talking about here?

384
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 2: If NBA games are played without fans, I think we

385
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 2: should get someone like maddioa soundboard with cheers and chance

386
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 2: that they can play over the loud speakers during the game.

387
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 2: Look at this is what you're talking about.

388
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 3: Test.

389
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: What would you put on your soundboard if you're running

390
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 2: audio in an empty NBA arena? This is from chief.

391
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 2: Oh we all got chieved right there. So yeah, a

392
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 2: Maddio soundboard? What are you putting on a task?

393
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 5: If I was a PA announcer in the arena, I

394
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,919
Speaker 5: don't think i'd put anything on it. I think I

395
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 5: would just flow with the game. I'd see a big

396
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 5: three from whoever go up calcor I would just throw

397
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 5: something out there. I would just be excited on the mic.

398
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 2: What's your voice like your.

399
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:42,239
Speaker 5: H Yeah, let's let's have some fun out there like her.

400
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: I love it.

401
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, exactly. I wouldn't go be as annoying as

402
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 5: the and one guy's no offense. But like I wouldn't,

403
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 5: I wouldn't have a running dialogue for four eight minutes.

404
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 5: I mean, you got to keep it. You got to

405
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 5: keep it a little bit special, you know. But but listen,

406
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 5: if you're throwing stuff in the soundboard. I did come

407
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 5: up with a few of these as well. Guys on

408
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 5: fire hit a few in a row, hits another. I

409
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 5: want to hear Jim Carrey from the Mask smoke. Okay, okay,

410
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 5: guy gets blocked stop right now, thank you very much.

411
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 5: I think people, I think players would absolutely hate that.

412
00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 5: So that's a good one. Get him riled up. And

413
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 5: my last one here players scores using some footwork like

414
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 5: a euro step. Here comes the Hodd step up and

415
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 5: then all the fans that aren't in the crowd with

416
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 5: saying murder. But that's what I got. I got, I

417
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 5: got those three right there.

418
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, this idea of someone sort of doing the end

419
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 2: one guy, like you said, is pretty funny to me.

420
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 2: We should just get the NBA jam guy. Oh yeah,

421
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 2: Tim Kim, Tim kits Row I think his name is

422
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 2: and just yeah, give him a mic and have him

423
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 2: just do NBA jam line boom shacka laka like during

424
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,679
Speaker 2: the game. Might be something there. He would do it.

425
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 3: I know that. Yeah, that's that's for sure. He would

426
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 3: love to announce some starting lineups. I'll hit you with

427
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 3: some lines. I think it's a great idea. Just have

428
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 3: him fired up. That's another way you can get fans

429
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 3: to interact with the game, right. You can do that

430
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 3: at home just calling out NBA jam lines. Go for it.

431
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 3: I was surprised to see that the TBJ soundboard, both

432
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 3: versions still available online. You can look it up. Listen

433
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 3: to all those classic drops. The one that stuck out

434
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 3: to me is that when an opponent is complaining to

435
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,639
Speaker 3: a referee, I would love to hear somebody drop that

436
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 3: cool story brool broth.

437
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 4: Well, anything from Cam Stewart at any time I think

438
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:39,719
Speaker 4: would still be hilarious.

439
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: Exactly Tim Barth.

440
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 3: Leonard.

441
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, when Tess was talking there, I would I was

442
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: reminded of when he did the impersonation of the guy

443
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: selling pop corn and peanuts bat up in the stands

444
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: and I just just just to add a little atmosphere

445
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: to the empty arena, just task going Popcuard. Do you

446
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: know the guy I'm talking about?

447
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:12,960
Speaker 3: Right?

448
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 5: You got it? Was it Shock Card, Popcard, Peanut caramel slugie.

449
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 1: It was strawberry strawberry slash.

450
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 5: As soon as I said caramel slash? Is caramel slushi

451
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 5: a thing I.

452
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 2: Don't think should be sounds delicious?

453
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 5: Uh? He is? I actually have to find his name.

454
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 5: He's been working in Toronto, all over the sports team

455
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 5: for decades, still getting gigs. Oh yeah, hopefully he's still working.

456
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 5: Hopefully hopefully still working. They should They should just have

457
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 5: him in there in empty arenas making it happen. Yeah,

458
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 5: it's good. That's a really good point.

459
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 2: Just wandering around with strawberry slushies for no one to buy.

460
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: The teams might buy it, you know, get thirsty while.

461
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 5: Theyre playing, or caramel slushies because no one would buy

462
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 5: those anyways, whatever the heck those are next? Email here?

463
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 5: Hey No Dunk Contest participants. I was telling a buddy

464
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 5: of mine, now a diehard No Dunk's listener, about Lee's

465
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 5: championship asterisks list. This got me thinking about other arbitrary

466
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,400
Speaker 5: notes from previous NBA seasons and with the last dance

467
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 5: wrapping up. I'm interested in the best player debate, but

468
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 5: not of all time. I'm talking season to season. For example,

469
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 5: MJ was indisputably the best player in the ninety seven

470
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 5: ninety eight season, but who was it the season after

471
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 5: or in ninety nine, two thousand, et cetera. I feel

472
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 5: like Lee would have a blast doing this and would

473
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 5: love to hear you guys thoughts on this. Turn ups, lollipops, ostriches,

474
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 5: Ryan in laps, lollypops, ostriches.

475
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 2: That was horrible. Sorry, worst one I've ever done. I'm

476
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 2: usually better at that voice. Alright, what do you think?

477
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 5: All right?

478
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, great question, Ryan, You're absolutely right. I did have

479
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 4: a blast doing this one. Had to put the kids

480
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 4: on the TV yesterday for a couple of hours while

481
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 4: I went through each season.

482
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 2: Here's a couple hours.

483
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 5: Yeah.

484
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 4: Well, you had to dig a little pretty deep for

485
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 4: some of these because ma'am, you know, I mean, we're

486
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 4: going back twenty years. So all right, So anyway, this

487
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 4: is good because you know, we often talk about, you know,

488
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 4: how many MVPs would a guy like Lebron have if

489
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 4: he you know, versus how many actually has? So now

490
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 4: I have the definitive results. Okay, and I used a

491
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 4: pretty simple philosophy. I just looked back at the season,

492
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 4: including the playoffs. You didn't have to have won the title,

493
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 4: but just not flamed out either. So let's start with

494
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 4: the tough one. Ninety eight to ninety nine, the season

495
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 4: that nobody cares about calm alone was MVP. Spurs were

496
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 4: champs in a shortened season. But everyone sort of forgets

497
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 4: about this season. And I don't think one player truly dominated.

498
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 4: But I'm going with Alonso Morning finished second in MVP

499
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,959
Speaker 4: voting and he romped away with Defensive Player of the Year,

500
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 4: so two way impact. Now that he blewed in the playoffs,

501
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 4: that's the problem. They lost to the New York Knicks

502
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 4: in five, but Tim Duncan went on to win the

503
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 4: championship and finals MVP. But was he truly the best

504
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 4: player then? I don't I think so. I don't think

505
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 4: he was that season.

506
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 2: So going we are you are taking playoffs into consideration?

507
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 4: I am, I am, but but see you know immediately

508
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 4: it sort of like has a bit of a fault

509
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 4: there because the Heat lose when they really should have won.

510
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 4: They should have gone to the finals that season. They

511
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 4: absolutely should have a number one seed in the East,

512
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 4: but they didn't.

513
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 3: But again, your asterisks have astisk they do, man.

514
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 5: They do.

515
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 4: I mean I had it when I have a formula

516
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 4: that's that's impenetrable and then it falls down in the

517
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 4: first season. Anyway, Yes, ninety nine, two thousand, Shaq was

518
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 4: MVP in the Landslide and really starting to dominate the league.

519
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 4: Lakers won sixty seven games, although they went to five

520
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 4: games in the first round with the Kings and almost

521
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 4: lost to the Blazers as well in seven if you remember,

522
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 4: obviously that classic Game seven in LA. But they won

523
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 4: the title in six over Indiana. Shack went for thirty

524
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 4: eight and seventeen on sixty one percent. He was the

525
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 4: best player in the league. In two thousand, two thousand

526
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 4: and one, Allen Iverson was the MVP and had a

527
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 4: great season, but he wasn't the best player. Shaq was

528
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 4: at the prime peak dominance for me, and you really

529
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 4: only have to look at the playoffs. The Lakers only

530
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 4: lost one game, and of course it was a famous

531
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 4: Iverson forty eight point game, the step over. But no one,

532
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 4: I don't think, really would say Shaq wasn't just the

533
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 4: behemoth that he was in two thousand and one because

534
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 4: he was just dominant. Kobe was great, Iverson was great.

535
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 4: But Shack should have been MVP that season.

536
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 2: In two thousand and two thousand and one. You should

537
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 2: have repeated, yes, he.

538
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 4: Should have, Yes, he should have.

539
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 2: You got a little trivia, A little trivia question about

540
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: two thousand and two thousand and one for all you guys

541
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 2: who led the league in total points scored that year,

542
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 2: and it wasn't Iverson, and it wasn't Shack McGrady.

543
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 5: No, Glenn Robinson.

544
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 2: No crazy, that would be a crazy ram. No, but

545
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 2: it's a It is a crazy sort of player. Better

546
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 2: than those it better, yeah, better, better, tough though, got

547
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 2: to tie to Michael Jordan.

548
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 3: Alone.

549
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 2: No, it's a guard.

550
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 3: Mitch Richmond.

551
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 2: No, no, not a Hall of Famer of this player.

552
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 2: He's a coach, I believe now, he's not a coach

553
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 2: in the NBA.

554
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 6: I should have said Penny hard No, no, oh, tough

555
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 6: one Howard no, no, no, no, no. He's trying to

556
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 6: think if Tass has done any television work with this guy.

557
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 2: I don't think you have.

558
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 4: Gary Payton, no, no, no, no, he coaches.

559
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 2: He's a two time All star. He was in ninety

560
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 2: five YIX rookie if that helps, played for a lot

561
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 2: of teams.

562
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 3: Antoine, Jamison, Jerry.

563
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 2: Staco, thanks for playing.

564
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, tough one, good one, all right, good one?

565
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 2: Sorry, all right.

566
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 4: Two thousand and two thousand two, Tim Duncan was MVP

567
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 4: and starting to show his dominance in the league, but

568
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 4: Shack was still the best finished third in m VP voting,

569
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 4: second year in a row for him. But the Lakers

570
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 4: brush past the Spurs in five in the conference finals,

571
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 4: then swept the Nets to three peat. Shack was Finals MVP.

572
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 4: He was still the best player in the league for me.

573
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 4: Then two thousand and two, two thousand and three, back

574
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 4: to back MVPs for Duncan officially in a championship for

575
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 4: the Spurs and the Lakers dynasty was coming to an end.

576
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 4: McGrady had a good season. KG, Kobin Shack were great,

577
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 4: but I'm going with Tim Duncan for this season because

578
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 4: they ended the Lakers run in the playoffs, even though

579
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 4: the Lakers were starting to implode a little bit. But

580
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 4: Duncan MVP and Finals MVP twenty three thirteen and three

581
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 4: blocks on the season, a pretty dominant season for him

582
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 4: and three to two thousand and four. This was a

583
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 4: tough one because the Shaq and Kobe feud was at

584
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 4: its peak, but the Lakers still made it to the

585
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 4: finals with home court advantage and really, you know, could

586
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 4: have and should have won the championship, but they just

587
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 4: hated each other. But I don't think either Kobe or

588
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 4: Shack was the best player that season. I think it

589
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 4: was down to Duncan or KG, And I'm going with

590
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 4: Kevin Garnette. Kevin Garnett played eighty two games and took

591
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 4: the Wolves to the Western Conference Finals. They obviously lost

592
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 4: to the Lakers there, but it was almost like a

593
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 4: breakout year of sorts for KG because he went so

594
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 4: far in the playoffs and he had a monster season

595
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 4: twenty four to fourteen to five a block a still

596
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 4: and a half and two point two blocks a game.

597
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 4: So I'm going with KG for three to oh.

598
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 2: Four, right, And that was the one I alluded to

599
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 2: KG one, Duncan second, and Jermaine O'Neil three that year.

600
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 4: You're right there, you go, yeah, four h five? Well

601
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 4: closure ears for this one Canadian fans, because Steve Nash

602
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 4: returned to Phoenix, had a great season and won MVP,

603
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 4: But I'm actually going with Shack because of the impact

604
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 4: he had in Miami only twenty three and eleven, but

605
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 4: the Heat finished fifty nine and twenty three and the

606
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 4: Spurs won the title and Duncan's was finals MVP, But

607
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 4: that should have been man, Who's MVP in the finals

608
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 4: that year? And this is why I'm not going with

609
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 4: Duncan that season, because the Spurs at this point were

610
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 4: really starting to show just how good they were as

611
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,239
Speaker 4: a team. You know, well coached Parker was great at

612
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 4: that point. Man, I've already mentioned they had a very

613
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 4: very good team and the Heat. This is where the

614
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 4: Heat really blew it though. They led Detroit three to

615
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 4: two in the conference finals but lost in seven. Dwayne

616
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 4: Wade missed Game six with a rib injury and was

617
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 4: probably a little banged up in Game seven. So I

618
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 4: went back to Shack for that one, just because again

619
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 4: he took the Heat into immediate contention. As great as

620
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 4: Dwayne Wade was, Wade still wasn't a superstar at that point.

621
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 5: Crazy the point total for Steve Nash in that year, Yeah,

622
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 5: first MVP year, Yeah, fifteen hours.

623
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like the Suns obviously had a great season,

624
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 4: and he was great, but I don't think he was

625
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 4: better than Shack, and I don't think Shaq likes the

626
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 4: fact that Nash won that one either. Now we head

627
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 4: into the post Shack pre Lebron dominance era five to

628
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 4: six back to back for Nash on the official ballot,

629
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 4: but Kobriy averaged thirty five a game that season and

630
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 4: he had the eighty one point performance. The Lakers finished seventh,

631
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 4: so it wasn't a great playoff run. Of course, they

632
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 4: blew the three to one to the Suns as well,

633
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 4: but when you look at that team with Smush Chris Mim,

634
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 4: they did have lamar Odin, but that was about it.

635
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 4: But I'm going with Kobe for that season because I

636
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 4: felt like, if you well, I'm going with him. Because

637
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 4: I felt that if Kobe wanted to go for forty

638
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 4: five at night that season, he could have. So it

639
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 4: was kind of like a I'm just going to do

640
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 4: everything I can for this team and drag them along.

641
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 4: Would have liked a little more playoff success, of course,

642
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 4: but I don't think Shack dominated. Lebron wasn't quite there yet.

643
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 4: And again, I don't really think think Nash was the

644
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 4: best player in the league at that point. So you know,

645
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 4: another tough one now, this one O six, O seven.

646
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 4: This was Dirk when he led the MAVs to the

647
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 4: sixty seven wins. And Dirk was great, Mas were great team.

648
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 4: But Lebron, Lebron started here, I think when he became,

649
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 4: you know, the best player, because in O seven, you

650
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 4: remember that was when they upset the Pistons in the

651
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 4: conference finals, and Lebron took that awful Cavs team to

652
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 4: the finals. They got swept by the Spurs, and again

653
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 4: the Spurs were a very very good team, but I

654
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 4: think Lebron was already sort of saying I'm the best

655
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,200
Speaker 4: player in the league. If you were to pick a

656
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 4: team the next pick a player to start a team

657
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 4: with the next season, I think he going with Lebron

658
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 4: from then, from the end of the six oh seven season. Uh. Now,

659
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 4: it gets a bit boring because you know, once Lebron's

660
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 4: the best player, you know, he's pretty much the best

661
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 4: player for a lot of years here, and I think

662
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 4: pretty much pretty much because Kobe was MVP and O eight,

663
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 4: But again I think Lebron was the best player now

664
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 4: in the playoffs. This was, of course when the when

665
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 4: the Celtics and the Cavs had a great series and

666
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 4: it went to seven games. Lebron had that, you know,

667
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 4: that huge dunk over the Celtics. But I still think

668
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 4: that Lebron was the best player, even though the Celtics

669
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 4: went on to win the championship and Kobe was MVP.

670
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 4: But you know, it was at that point we were

671
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 4: really seeing Lebron live up to all the hype. So

672
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 4: give that to Lebron in seven, eight, eight, o nine. Yeah,

673
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 4: Lebron sixty six sixteen calves.

674
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 2: I mean they blew it.

675
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 4: They blew it in the playoffs, losing to the Magic,

676
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 4: of course, But at that point, no one was picking

677
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 4: Lebron to be No one was picking anyone better than Lebron.

678
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 4: Nine to ten, back to back MVPs in real life,

679
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 4: and four straight seasons as the league's best player. In

680
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 4: my opinion, you weren't taking Kobe at that point. Kevin

681
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 4: Durant wasn't quite there yet, and Lebron and Dwight was good,

682
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 4: but Lebron was better. Ten to eleven. Voter Fatigue said

683
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 4: in a little bit, Derek Rose had a great season

684
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 4: leading the Bulls. The Bulls had the best record, but

685
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 4: in the conference finals you saw what Lebron did there

686
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 4: to to Chicago. Dwight was impactful at both ends, no

687
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,600
Speaker 4: doubt one defensive player of the year. But still you're

688
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 4: picking Lebron and you're picking him in the shortened season

689
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 4: eleven and twelve he won.

690
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 2: Well why not Dirk for ten to eleven with the

691
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 2: playoff run.

692
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 4: Yeah he did, he did have a good run, But

693
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 4: I just don't think anyone was picking Dirk as a

694
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 4: better player than Lebron for that season. I think, you know,

695
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 4: like the Heat should have well, they you know, they

696
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 4: made the finals. They led to one and Lebron definitely

697
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 4: didn't have a great final series. But that was a shock,

698
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 4: I think to everyone. I think at that point we're

699
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 4: expecting Lebron to just especially because they teamed up with

700
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 4: Bish and Wade, they were expected to win.

701
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 2: They finally did win.

702
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 4: In eleven and twelve, Lebron won the title, won league MVP,

703
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 4: he won finals MVP, not much more to stay there.

704
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 4: Same in twelve thirteen, they win the finals. He was

705
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 4: he was back to back MVP. Of course they win

706
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 4: in seven over the Spurs.

707
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 3: Here's a trivia question, who's the only other player in

708
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 3: the twelve thirteen season to get a first place vote

709
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 3: for MVP.

710
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was yeah, Yeah, he should have been unanimous

711
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 4: that season. Yep, that's right, That's right. Was Garry Washburn. Okay,

712
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,239
Speaker 4: thirteen fourteen, Now this was a little bit of a

713
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 4: tough one because Durant won MVP. But Lebron, as great

714
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 4: as he was, still had a great season, but he

715
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 4: sort of showed us already that he was in a

716
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 4: little bit of Cruiz ConTroll during the regular season, and

717
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 4: I think Durant led the league in scoring thirty two points,

718
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 4: seven rebounds, five assists, and they didn't obviously win the championship,

719
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 4: they lost to the Spurs, But I think I'm going

720
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 4: to go with Durant for that season just because, again,

721
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 4: I think Lebron sort of just took his foot off

722
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 4: the gas a little bit and Durant, Duran showed that

723
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 4: he was going to be a true superstar from that season.

724
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 4: So I'm giving I'm breaking things up a little bit

725
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 4: and going with Durant for thirteen fourteen.

726
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 3: LS fatigue right there.

727
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 4: Fourteen to fifteen, the Rise of the Warriors and Lebron's

728
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 4: first season back in Cleveland. Steph was incredible one, MVP

729
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 4: hard and second. But come playoff time, Lebron took over. Now,

730
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 4: remember in the playoffs, he lost Kevin Love in the

731
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 4: first game of the first series to the Celtics and

732
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 4: they swept them. They lost a couple to Derek Rose.

733
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 4: Of course Rose had that banked in game winner. They

734
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 4: put the Bulls up to one, but that was the

735
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,720
Speaker 4: last game the Bulls won. And then the Cavs swept

736
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 4: the sixty win Hawks, and then they lose Kyrie Irving

737
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 4: in the first game of the finals against the Warriors,

738
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 4: and they still go up to one in that series.

739
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 4: Lebron remember he had delavandover, you know, Tristan Thompson and

740
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 4: those guys, and it was like, man, if Lebron can

741
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 4: do this, he will be the champ or you know,

742
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 4: the greatest ever.

743
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 2: He wasn't able to.

744
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 4: But I think again, I don't think Steph was better

745
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 4: than Lebron that season. I think Lebron was still better,

746
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 4: but he just couldn't win the championship. Fifteen to sixteen. Now,

747
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 4: this one was a tough one because I mean it

748
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 4: came down to basically Game seven, and I think you

749
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 4: have to go with Lebron simply because they won the

750
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 4: championship from down three. Wow, I know.

751
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 2: This is the year Currs averaged thirty a game, right, Yeah,

752
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: he's thirty a games he was the year before won

753
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 2: they went seventy three to nine, of course, but I mean,

754
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,879
Speaker 2: you know, come playoff time down three to one like that,

755
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 2: that had never been done before.

756
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 4: What Lebron did?

757
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 3: You know?

758
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,479
Speaker 4: And seriously, after that series, would you taken Lebron or Steph?

759
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 4: I think everyone would have taken Lebron simply because what

760
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:11,279
Speaker 4: we saw him done.

761
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 2: It's so tough.

762
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 4: I mean, some of these could have gone either way,

763
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 4: but you know it, given the question and the way

764
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 4: it was framed us like this is what we talk

765
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 4: about a lot like Lebron's the best player, even though

766
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 4: other guys win awards. So so I went with that one.

767
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 4: I went with I went there. Okay, sixteen seventeen, the

768
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 4: Russell Westbrook triple double season. But I mean, you know,

769
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 4: he went out there and he did he did a

770
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 4: great job. He did a great job, but it didn't

771
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 4: really lead to any playoff success for him. Really. The

772
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 4: only question was would Lebron now be able to repeat

773
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 4: and beat the Kevin Durant teamed up Warriors.

774
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 3: They couldn't.

775
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 4: But again, I think we all looked and thought that

776
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 4: the Warriors were so stacked that it was tough for Lebron.

777
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 4: But was Kevin Durant or Steph better than Lebron? I

778
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 4: don't think so, because we know that basically the Warriors

779
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 4: had to stop Lebron and they win the championship and

780
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 4: they and they couldn't even do that really, but Lebron

781
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 4: was still the best player seventeen eighteen. Yeah, sorry, same again,

782
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 4: Lebron is still the best player. James Harden won MVP and

783
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 4: they gat a.

784
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 2: Lot of people would disagree with these ones, like you

785
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 2: could make the real strong case for a Durant because

786
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 2: that that was the argument, right, Yeah.

787
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 4: I mean it's but again, who would you pick if

788
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 4: you had to pick one player back then? Durant or Lebron?

789
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 4: I mean that's what I That's what I kept coming

790
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 4: back to him, like wherever I was picking Lebron, But listen,

791
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 4: I've got I've got one here. Eighty to nineteen. Last season,

792
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 4: finally a change because Lebron had a bad season by

793
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 4: his standards. He was injured, he missed the playoffs, and

794
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 4: even when he did play when he came back from

795
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 4: the playoffs, he just didn't look that interested. Yamas was MVP,

796
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 4: but Kawhi put an end to all that. And even

797
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 4: though Kawhi sat out twenty two games, he was finals

798
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 4: MVP and he took the raptors of all teams to

799
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 4: the championship. So I'm going with Kawhi for last season.

800
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,840
Speaker 4: I think he was the best player, you know. Like again,

801
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 4: Durant was injured of course in the playoffs, and the

802
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 4: Warriors should have won the championship I think going into

803
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,919
Speaker 4: that season, but they didn't, So I went with Kwie.

804
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 4: So my final count, Lebron should have had eleven m

805
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 4: vps by now Shack Shack four and then one each

806
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 4: to Duncan, Kevin Garnette, Durant, Kobe, Kawhi, and Alonso Morning. Unlucky.

807
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 2: Unlucky kids, Hey kids, Paw patrol. Daddy's done.

808
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 4: So unfortunately Steve Nash, Steph Curry, James Harden, and Westbrook

809
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:28,720
Speaker 4: all miss out on an MVP.

810
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, eleven m vps for all, Yeah, yeah, yeah, it

811
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 2: would be interesting. That would make the goat conversation at between.

812
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,919
Speaker 4: You know, when you look back at like Westbrook's triple

813
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 4: double season, like it was great, but I mean it

814
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 4: was just more like the storyline like, oh wow, he

815
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 4: did it, this is incredible. You know, no one really

816
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 4: thought he was the best player in the league.

817
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,279
Speaker 3: Did you give give any consideration to Kawhi Leonard during

818
00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 3: the sixteen to seventeen season, his last real season with

819
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 3: the Hurt in MVP, I remember Zach Low voted for

820
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,240
Speaker 3: him because he was a two way player.

821
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, no, for sure.

822
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 2: For sure.

823
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 4: It came down to though, like in that situation, you know,

824
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 4: who's the better offensive player, Lebron, who's a better defensive player?

825
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 4: Probably Kawhi. But again, when Lebron decides to defend, he's

826
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 4: as good as Kawhi in my opinion, And he still

827
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 4: was then even though again he's he's he's definitely eased

828
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 4: off on the defensive end, Lebron, but when he locked in.

829
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 4: And also remember like sometimes Lebron would play point guard

830
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 4: for the Heat, sometimes he would play center, sometimes he

831
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:32,399
Speaker 4: would play forward like that.

832
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 3: No one else can really do.

833
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 2: That, Sean Mary out there.

834
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 3: So there you go.

835
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 5: There you go.

836
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 2: All right, let's see if you guys agree disagree. I

837
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 2: think you gotta. I think you went a little too

838
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,760
Speaker 2: many with Lebron. If I'm being yes, I got maybe

839
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 2: a round more of a nine. Maybe I'll even give

840
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 2: you ten.

841
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 5: But yeah, I think that was my biggest beef. When

842
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 5: you're handing out nine, ten, and eleven to Lebron, you're

843
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 5: factoring in the playoffs and seeing him in a seven

844
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 5: game set, you'd probably picked Bron over other teams. But

845
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 5: the season is eighty two games. You kind of have

846
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 5: to play for most of those games. And then the

847
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 5: other beef is Steph. I know you said fifteen sixteen season,

848
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 5: they came back from three to one. No one has

849
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 5: done that, but no one did what Steph did that

850
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:19,800
Speaker 5: year either. Yeah, looknercentages, Yeah, thirty point like yeah, fifty

851
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 5: from the floor, forty five from three, thirty points per game,

852
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 5: the free throw line, Lee, what.

853
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 4: Was I know, there's no there's no doubt that that

854
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 4: was one I wanted to make the case for Steph.

855
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,439
Speaker 4: You know, I love Steph. I'm a big Steph guy.

856
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 4: But but again, I just had to look at the

857
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 4: final game of the season, and those finals three games.

858
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 3: You were under the last minute of the season.

859
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 4: It basically did we talk about Jordan's last minute against

860
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 4: the Jazz. What about Lebron's last minute against the Well,

861
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean Kawhi excuse me, Kyrie hits the

862
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 4: Big Three, but but you know, it's just it's like

863
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 4: the MVP of That's yeah, that's right, that's right, But yeah,

864
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 4: it was Thanks thanks for that question, Ron. I want

865
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 4: to do another one like that. So if anyone's going

866
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 4: to idea, I got one.

867
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 3: Next week, do the best sports podcast for every year

868
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 3: from two thousand and nine. We're coming from Lebronze eleven

869
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 3: on this one.

870
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 2: Look forward to that list. I look forward to it. Okay,

871
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: great great stuff there, leely oppressive work. Thanks for putting

872
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 2: your kids onto the TV for a couple hours. All right,

873
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 2: Hello no dunk a Rooney's medium fan here from Colorado.

874
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: I was just looking back at old stand up clips

875
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 2: from Blake Griffin recently and realized that he has sort

876
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 2: of observational sense of humor that kind of reminds me

877
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 2: of Jerry Seinfeld. Anyway. That got me thinking, if Blake

878
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 2: Griffin had his own sitcom like Seinfeld, who would be

879
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 2: his friend equivalence?

880
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 5: You know?

881
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 2: Is CP three, George is Alex Caruso, Larry David and

882
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 2: who plays Newman turn up Love you guys. That's from

883
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:00,399
Speaker 2: Daniel Oh, a medium sized fan of No Dunks. Why

884
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 2: don't you take this one? Who would be the NBA

885
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 2: equivalents of a Seinfeld cast.

886
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I like this idea, but I would like

887
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 1: to pitch that we make it more of a Curb

888
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 1: your Enthusiasm style. We send Blake back to LA after

889
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: he's retired. I mentioned that Dennis Robin kind of reminds

890
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: me of JB's smooth in the Last Dance. So he's

891
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: gonna live in Blake's guest house, sort of like Leon Black.

892
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: He'll be a fixture in the house, a guy with

893
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 1: a unique worldview for Blake to bounce his ideas and

894
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 1: schemes off of. I would like to cast Nicki Glazer

895
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:43,480
Speaker 1: as his friend Nicki Glazer, the great comedian, and they

896
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: will have a sort of will they won't they kind

897
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 1: of storyline. He was on the Alec Baldwin roast with

898
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 1: her and he called her Larry Bird, and there's some

899
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: chemistry there. I think that she would The two of

900
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: them would be great. The Nemesis or Newman character. I

901
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:06,319
Speaker 1: would like to cast Zach Randolph. They both seem like

902
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 1: the nicest guys off the court, but I think it

903
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 1: would be hilarious if they hated each other. And correct

904
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. They did have a beef a

905
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: few years back during the playoffs and the Grizzlies were

906
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 1: playing the Clippers, and did Blake knock him down? And

907
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 1: then Zebo seemed hurt? And then Zebo started doing push ups?

908
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: Is that the two of them?

909
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think that's exactly right.

910
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:28,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

911
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 3: And I think that, like Zach Randolph, is maybe the

912
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,360
Speaker 3: single player that Blake Griffin has played the most against

913
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 3: in his career.

914
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: Oh really, Okay, well, definitely up there. That works great,

915
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: And I would cast to Kembe Matombo as Blake's agent

916
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:46,879
Speaker 1: who's just always saying no, no, no to him. That's

917
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 1: my pitch.

918
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 2: All right, let's write it well again, have to run

919
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,400
Speaker 2: it by Mattio the script, but we'll get on that

920
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 2: good stuff next one.

921
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 5: Here. Hey, Fellows, thanks for the great content. I've been

922
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 5: a fan since back in the tbjdy. My question is,

923
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 5: if you were to pick the best starting five from

924
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 5: movie ballers, who would you pick. That's Andy Ion with

925
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 5: that question, perfect question. Right now, we've been flying through

926
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,920
Speaker 5: all these movie reviews. So Skeats, take us through your

927
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:16,800
Speaker 5: top five.

928
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. I had a couple of rules before I get

929
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:22,839
Speaker 2: to my starting five. It's one, I couldn't take an

930
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 2: actual NBA player that was playing himself in a movie. Right,

931
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 2: So I'm not taking Michael Jordan from Space Jam because

932
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 2: he's just Michael Jordan. That seems like cheating to me.

933
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 2: I could take an NBA player as long as they're acting.

934
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 2: In Another rule, and I decided I couldn't double up

935
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 2: from a movie. So, for example, I couldn't take Billy

936
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 2: and Sidney, let's say, from White Man Can't Jump in

937
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 2: the end, I don't take either of them. But that

938
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,799
Speaker 2: was just a rule I made. So I'm sure I'm

939
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 2: going to get some blowback to this starting five. That's fine,

940
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 2: it's part of the fun. Here's mine my point guard.

941
00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 2: I haven't seen this movie, but I'm gonna assume he's

942
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 2: pretty good. Uncle Drew all right, Uncle Drew from Uncle Drew,

943
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving. He's my pointcard. Let's not overthink this. My

944
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:12,240
Speaker 2: shooting guard is Jesus Shuttlesworth from He Got Game, which

945
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 2: is gonna be the movie we're watching this Friday in

946
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,839
Speaker 2: Film Session. We're gonna watch Spike Lee's he Got Game

947
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 2: with Ray Allen in the role of Jesus Shuttlesworth and

948
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 2: he got Denzel in it. I mean, he's an incredible

949
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 2: player in this game. I won't spoil the movie yet,

950
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 2: but he's so damn good. He's basically getting his father

951
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 2: out of jail. That's okay?

952
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 4: Is Denzel Washington one of your favorite actors of all time?

953
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 2: Are you setting me up for some sort of office

954
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 2: quote here?

955
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 4: He's not my favorite active all time, my favorite active

956
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 4: all time.

957
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 2: It's Cindy correct.

958
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 3: All right.

959
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 2: My small forward is I'm gonna go Jimmy Chitwood from Hoosiers. Okay,

960
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 2: I want to appear shooting.

961
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,640
Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? Yeah? Yeah, you can hang with

962
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 3: the athletes today. Yes, he could basketball movies. He could.

963
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,800
Speaker 2: He's man, That's basically what he is in this movie.

964
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 2: So give me Jimmy Chutwood my power forward. This is

965
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,239
Speaker 2: the toughest decision. I think. It feels like, you know,

966
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of there's not a ton of

967
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 2: big guys in basketball movies. You know, it's a more

968
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 2: of a guard sort of bass story. But I'm going shep,

969
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 2: I'm taking Shep from above the rim. You know, he's

970
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 2: got some height there. In today's game, Tray as a

971
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 2: big guy, he can still step out there and shoot

972
00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 2: the jumper, and he's physical. He's sort of like he's

973
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 2: basically Charles Oakley with a bit of a jump shot

974
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 2: to him. So I want a little toughness on my team.

975
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 2: So Shep and to close out my starting five, I'm

976
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,760
Speaker 2: gonna go with Neon Budeau from Blue Chips. That is Shack.

977
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 2: He's incredible. You know, I was gonna have to pick.

978
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 2: I love Penny, So I was like, ooh, do I

979
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 2: take Penny or Shack. But in the end, I'll take

980
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 2: Neon as my center, my sixth man. Just around this

981
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 2: out Scott Howard from teen Wolf. Yes, yeah, you gotta

982
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 2: get You know, he never passes the ball. I was

983
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 2: gonna make him my starting point guard. But he never

984
00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:58,879
Speaker 2: passes the rock.

985
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 4: So he's clutched the he's clutch.

986
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,959
Speaker 2: He's clutch. He's clutched. So he can come off the bench.

987
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,800
Speaker 2: He can be my Lou Williams type of guy. That

988
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 2: might be a Wolfer.

989
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,479
Speaker 3: Is he going to be a man on the road.

990
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:10,839
Speaker 2: He will be a man at home.

991
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 3: You don't want to travel with the role wolf.

992
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:16,719
Speaker 2: No no, and then uh, my coach, just to close

993
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 2: this out, is you know, I thought about Eddie, I

994
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 2: thought about Coach Carter, but I want to keep the

995
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,960

1057
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 2: weather starting to warm up here in Toronto, I have

1058
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 2: to admit something embarrassing. I've been on a huge white

1059
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,720
Speaker 2: claw kick. I have to ask, have you guys tried

1060
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 2: white claws? What are your thoughts on these tasty treats?

1061
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 2: If you aren't into them, what's your go to summer drink?

1062
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 2: Feel free to share any recipe suggestions. Thanks for keeping

1063
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 2: us all entertained. Were up bart thin le? Have your

1064
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 2: had a weight clob? You tried one?

1065
00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 5: No?

1066
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 4: I haven't. No, they're seltzer I read. I didn't know

1067
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 4: anything about them, So no, no, I haven't tried one.

1068
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 4: Might try one? I might try?

1069
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 2: And sure, why not?

1070
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 4: But it comes summertime. It's a real British thing. But

1071
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 4: the best summer drink out there is Pims with lemonade.

1072
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 4: It is incredible and it's so refreshing, and it's like,

1073
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 4: it's hard to do even describe the flavor of what

1074
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 4: it is. I can't even really describe to you. But

1075
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 4: you mix it with the lemonade and then you can

1076
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 4: put in things like cucumber or strawberries or mint is

1077
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 4: really good in there, and you just sip it in

1078
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 4: a beautiful, hot summer's day, and it's so refreshing. The

1079
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 4: weirdest thing is you cannot drink it in winter or

1080
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 4: on a cold, cloudy day. It just doesn't go down

1081
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 4: as well. But when the sun shining, you got your

1082
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 4: sunny's on, you're sitting outside, you're just sipping away on

1083
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:57,920
Speaker 4: a Pims. It is the most refreshing drink you can

1084
00:51:57,920 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 4: possibly have.

1085
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 2: Pims cup beautiful. Yeah nice, Say, well, has anyone tried?

1086
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 2: I assumes you've had a white claw JD. You've had

1087
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 2: a white clad Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah, And what do

1088
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 2: you think you like them?

1089
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: I like them? They're lacroix Is with booze in them.

1090
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, that's not to like.

1091
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing. I find them a little too

1092
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 5: synthetic tasting. And that's from a guy who loves a Lacroix.

1093
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 5: There's something about him, a kick. I get off the kick, Jonathan.

1094
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 5: Maybe just a couple, but I don't know. I would

1095
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 5: find them a little gross after a while. But a

1096
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 5: summer drink. You just reminded me of Lee. I had

1097
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 5: a corona with a lime in it this past week

1098
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:40,040
Speaker 5: when it was really really sunny here in Atlanta. Nothing

1099
00:52:40,080 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 5: like a corona with a lime in it, and hey,

1100
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 5: they're struggling. They're struggling. Business is down for corona. So

1101
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 5: pick up a corona, put a line in it, hit

1102
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 5: the swim up bar. You're feeling good.

1103
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,840
Speaker 2: I'd prefer a lot of beers to a corona.

1104
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1105
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 2: I guess you're right. A corona on a hot day

1106
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:00,880
Speaker 2: is fine. I just found a place just up the

1107
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 2: road from where I am Lee Portuguese wine shop. They

1108
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:09,280
Speaker 2: actually have they sell super Buk, which is a Portuguese beer.

1109
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 2: It's a delicious, simple beer. I love it, so I

1110
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:14,799
Speaker 2: was pumped to find out that they sell it. It

1111
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,680
Speaker 2: comes in every week, So I'll just take a super Bok.

1112
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:22,400
Speaker 2: Although I also love a good gin drink like yeah fresh,

1113
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 2: yeah exactly during the summer is very good.

1114
00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah yeah.

1115
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 5: What about those Australias I brought over it to you, Skeets's.

1116
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 2: They come, Yeah, that's pretty good. Yeah.

1117
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,479
Speaker 5: Spain, that's that's that's a better Spain. Is a better

1118
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,120
Speaker 5: Portugal I've heard, and they've.

1119
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,880
Speaker 2: Got Dare you you take that back? I think you're

1120
00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 2: right with Jonathan what you were saying, though, task I

1121
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 2: think he'll be on this kick, as he called it,

1122
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,520
Speaker 2: for white Claw for a week or two, maybe a

1123
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 2: little bit longer, and then you just watch you'll get

1124
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:53,799
Speaker 2: tired of those very quickly. Something about that that you're like, oh,

1125
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 2: these are delicious. I could drink these all the time,

1126
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,600
Speaker 2: And like two or three weeks in you're gonna be like,

1127
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 2: I don't want another one of these, because I remember

1128
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 2: we're having that little run with a white claw too.

1129
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,840
Speaker 2: It's like, Okay, these are sort of gross. Now I

1130
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 2: don't want them.

1131
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,640
Speaker 3: That's the question to me. They just got white claws

1132
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 3: in Toronto. This was a last year thing. Come on, guys,

1133
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,799
Speaker 3: it's not Melbourne in the nineties. You can hear about

1134
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,320
Speaker 3: phone dogs in harmony.

1135
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 5: That's definitely a last year thing, for sure, for sure.

1136
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 5: And I've had made a nice little cocktail recently with

1137
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 5: some black strap molasses rum tasty, get in there. What

1138
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 5: the hell is black strat molasses rum? Who knows? But

1139
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 5: you throw some campari in there some tomorrow, no, no

1140
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,839
Speaker 5: nino in there. It is absolutely delicious. Give it a shot.

1141
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 5: Let me know how it is. It's bitter, it's sweet,

1142
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:43,279
Speaker 5: it's coffee, it's sugary, it's yummy. Next one here, Hey,

1143
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 5: no dunks. Getting to listen to you guys talk Survivor

1144
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 5: and the Last Dance has been a joy, especially hearing

1145
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 5: JD truly adds so much to the conversation. I think

1146
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 5: I found a way to get JD all in on basketball.

1147
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,440
Speaker 5: There has to be some way to combine Survivor and

1148
00:54:57,480 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 5: the NBA. Have twenty players go to an island in

1149
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 5: the offseason and compete in different basketball challenges, or with

1150
00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 5: the playoffs potentially being held in one location this year,

1151
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,240
Speaker 5: just have the Survivor crew get behind the scenes access

1152
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:14,840
Speaker 5: and then edit the season into fifteen episodes for fans

1153
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 5: to watch, sucking as much drama from the footage as possible.

1154
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,319
Speaker 5: Sucking that footage. I guess my question is, would you

1155
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 5: all be into Survivor beach ballers and how would you

1156
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 5: format it? That's from John and Ohio, JD. Why don't

1157
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,240
Speaker 5: you take this one? What's your format?

1158
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 1: Well? I love both of these ideas, and I think

1159
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 1: we should just combine it into the ultimate idea and

1160
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,919
Speaker 1: let's get Mark Burnett and Propston Silver and Robertson, Chris

1161
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 1: Paula on the horn, because let's pitch this. I mean,

1162
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: here's the pitch. We're taking the entire playoffs to the

1163
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 1: Survivors set on Fiji. Okay, we're going to build a

1164
00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 1: court right next to the ocean like you may have

1165
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 1: seen in Airbud or the Final Shot and the Way Back,

1166
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: televise all the games like usual. It'll be weird regardless

1167
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,600
Speaker 1: without the fans. So it let's just go all the

1168
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:12,759
Speaker 1: way and make a completely surreal experience basketball on the beach. Plus,

1169
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:16,760
Speaker 1: the Survivor crew is going to produce a Hard Knocks

1170
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 1: or a twenty four to seven style show that unfolds

1171
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 1: in real time, kind of like the Circus on Showtime.

1172
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:25,279
Speaker 1: That's a show that looks back at the week that

1173
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,400
Speaker 1: was in politics, but it's going to look back at

1174
00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 1: the week that was in the NBA playoffs, and it's

1175
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 1: going to tell the inside story of the path that

1176
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: each team is on. I mean, can you imagine that?

1177
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 1: And as the teams get eliminated, they're gonna have to

1178
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: go live at Ponderosa where they all have to hang out,

1179
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: reflect on the season and comment on the teams that

1180
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: are still in it. I think it would be great

1181
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:52,640
Speaker 1: for the NBA, It would be great for the game

1182
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 1: of basketball, would certainly pique my interest. So let's make

1183
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,400
Speaker 1: this happen. I mean, and they're all going to be

1184
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,400
Speaker 1: going to once But anyways, why not Fiji. That's not

1185
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:05,360
Speaker 1: a hard sell to these players, I would imagine, I

1186
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,319
Speaker 1: mean probably not.

1187
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 2: No, instead of uh, we don't, we can get rid

1188
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 2: of jerseys too. They can just play with their buffs.

1189
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,040
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.

1190
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 1: And then and then they have to play Survivor when

1191
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: the season's over, like they all have to play against

1192
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 1: each other. Oh yeah, teams or something.

1193
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:25,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, the championship team then goes right into Survivor

1194
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 2: and they have to vote each other out.

1195
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 1: Yes, but what if it was the NBA champion versus

1196
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 1: the NHL champions and then they have to play Survivor

1197
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: and then as the original Yeah, the two tribes. Oh

1198
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 1: I love it. Let's do this?

1199
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, good answer. Anything else to add to that, guys,

1200
00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:49,840
Speaker 2: I think he knocked it out of the park.

1201
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 3: There. Yeah, nothing to add I'm one hundred percent on

1202
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:56,280
Speaker 3: an in season reality show that's being produced within a week.

1203
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 3: Sounds awesome, all.

1204
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 2: Right, next one, fellow no Dunkers. In the wake of

1205
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:04,760
Speaker 2: reports of Rudy Gobert's recklessness surrounding COVID nineteen. I've been

1206
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 2: trying to find a trade for him out of Utah.

1207
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 2: What do you say about this? The Jazz trade Rudy

1208
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:14,919
Speaker 2: to the Bulls for Wendell Carter, Satius Young, and Thomas Saturanski.

1209
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,960
Speaker 2: The Bulls improve their defense and have someone who might

1210
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,959
Speaker 2: fit better with Markinnen. The Jazz get a young center

1211
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 2: prospect and improve their bench, a significant weakness last season.

1212
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 2: What say you yes? This is a who says no,

1213
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 2: we got one in. It's from Brian in Indianapolis. Trey,

1214
00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 2: you're the Bulls fan. What do you think? Wendell Carter,

1215
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 2: Thad Young, Sataransky for Rudy Gobert.

1216
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 3: I mainly think this is sad because on Sunday night

1217
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 3: I was thinking about Bulls teammates Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen,

1218
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 3: and on Tuesday night I was thinking about Bulls teammates

1219
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:51,920
Speaker 3: Otto Porter and Rudy Gobert. Somewhat of a downgrade. Rudy

1220
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:56,640
Speaker 3: no doubt the best player in this What say you deal?

1221
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 3: He's got the biggest impact on winning, and if he

1222
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 3: were to be away from Utah, they get way worse

1223
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,000
Speaker 3: just because of how instrumental he is. To their success.

1224
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 3: But I think it's an easier no for the Bulls

1225
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 3: because I think they would rather pay Wendell Carter for

1226
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:12,600
Speaker 3: the next five years than Rudy Gobert for the next

1227
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:16,000
Speaker 3: five years. You know, Wendell Carter is cheaper since he's

1228
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 3: still on his rookie deal. You imagine that his career

1229
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 3: is trending up, whereas Gobert is going to be super

1230
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 3: expensive when his deal is up. He's at In the

1231
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 3: best case scenario, he's at the peak of his powers,

1232
00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,880
Speaker 3: and he's able to plateau and stay there for a

1233
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 3: few more seasons before he totally falls off. The worst

1234
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 3: case scenario, the falloff happens as soon as you sign

1235
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:37,800
Speaker 3: him to a monster five year super max deal. So

1236
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:40,440
Speaker 3: for me, I think I would rather have the future

1237
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 3: of Wendell Carter versus the future of Rudy Gobert. Even

1238
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 3: if you would take Rudy tonight.

1239
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,880
Speaker 4: I agree. I think Rudy is clearly the best player

1240
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 4: in this deal. It's just whether or not you think

1241
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 4: Rudy's going to get much better than what we've seen

1242
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 4: from him the last couple of years, which is a

1243
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 4: very very good play, you know, impactful defensively and you know,

1244
00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 4: good enough offensively. But at this point point, you would

1245
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 4: only make that trade if you're the Bulls if you

1246
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:04,720
Speaker 4: felt Rudy was the piece, the final piece to sort

1247
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 4: of get you in contention for a championship, which they're

1248
01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:10,760
Speaker 4: not really anywhere near. So I don't think you would see,

1249
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 4: you know, a significant improvement there from the from the Bulls,

1250
01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 4: like maybe a few wins here and there, but it

1251
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: wouldn't really elevate them into contender status. So they've got

1252
01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 4: some other things, other pieces they need first, I think

1253
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 4: Chicago before they make that deal. But if you were

1254
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:28,280
Speaker 4: in a win now situation and you're the Bulls, would

1255
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 4: you would definitely go for it. But they're not, so

1256
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 4: by the time Rudy plays out that contract anyway, they

1257
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:36,000
Speaker 4: might not be much further along than when they are now.

1258
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, here's the concern too, Rudy Gobert, no matter if

1259
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 2: he starts the plateau and starts to go down with

1260
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 2: age and all that, he immediately makes your defense, you know,

1261
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 2: one of the better defenses in the league. And that

1262
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,520
Speaker 2: would then help the Bulls case to keep a guy

1263
01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 2: like Jim boil It around as coach because you know

1264
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:57,440
Speaker 2: he's a defensive minded coach, is he That's what they

1265
01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 2: keep telling us. But that suddenly makes them good and

1266
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 2: then Boiler maybe looks like he's a great coach, and

1267
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 2: you got more years of Boil and more push ups

1268
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 2: coming your way. So yeah, I mean, look, you would

1269
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 2: You're right, Rudy Gobert for those guys is like a

1270
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 2: damn yeah, that's that's awesome. But I hear what you're saying.

1271
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:16,640
Speaker 2: More long term picture as the issue there trade good question.

1272
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,400
Speaker 5: Though, Yeah, it was really it was a good analysis

1273
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 5: there by trade because it's it's sad to see the

1274
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,200
Speaker 5: the crop of free agents that the Bulls signed and

1275
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 5: Thomas said Aranski and Thaddeus Young and on and on

1276
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 5: and on and and what have they become. When they

1277
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 5: signed them. Everybody's excited, Oh, you know, these veteran guys

1278
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 5: are going to add something.

1279
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 2: And now I was very excited.

1280
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 5: Now they're you're literally giving them away. This this would

1281
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:42,200
Speaker 5: seemingly would be a trade for Wendell Carter, who's played

1282
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 5: two years in the NBA, for Rudy Gobert basically, and

1283
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 5: I hope Wendell Carter gets a little bit closer to

1284
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 5: the the expectations that he had because he's only played

1285
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 5: half a season. In each of those two seasons that

1286
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:00,080
Speaker 5: he's played, he's been injured, but he's been pretty so

1287
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,439
Speaker 5: when he's played, and I think that the Bulls would

1288
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,880
Speaker 5: be smart to hang on to him and hopefully get

1289
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:06,720
Speaker 5: him to do We.

1290
01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 2: Think Carter will be I mean, will he be as

1291
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,880
Speaker 2: good as Rudy Gobert at his best in his NBA career, I.

1292
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 3: Mean'sive Player of the Year. I think is a little

1293
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:18,680
Speaker 3: bit far fetched, but I think they can be. Not

1294
01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 3: that's the way they go about it, but I think

1295
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,800
Speaker 3: they can both be similar players where they're you know,

1296
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 3: I think Wendell Carter could be a defensive centerpiece for

1297
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,000
Speaker 3: the Bulls and also able to contribute offensively, which is

1298
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 3: what Gobert does for the Jazz.

1299
01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe it took a.

1300
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 5: Few years for Rudy to find his stride in the NBA, too,

1301
01:02:35,360 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 5: So go get him, wind Dell. All right, next one here?

1302
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 5: Hey know, Dinky Dongos, I was listening to last week's

1303
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:44,960
Speaker 5: beach Step and I really had to slow that down

1304
01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 5: to get that right. Hey know, Dinky Dongos, I was

1305
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 5: listening to last week's beach step in and was intrigued

1306
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 5: by dogs taking a fat dump on Tass's corner lot.

1307
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,360
Speaker 5: Did you know that dogs feel most vulnerable when they

1308
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:02,680
Speaker 5: are taking dumps? This man really likes saying dumps. Anyway.

1309
01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 5: This made me want to know times where you guys

1310
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 5: felt most vulnerable. For example, when I'm shooting hoops in

1311
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:11,840
Speaker 5: my driveway and a hot girl walks by, I feel

1312
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 5: like I'm destined to airball. Thanks for the entertainment as

1313
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:19,080
Speaker 5: always as from Blake in Dallas shooting air balls skeets.

1314
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:22,360
Speaker 5: When have you felt your most vulnerable?

1315
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:25,400
Speaker 2: Oh? Definitely when I took a dump on your lot

1316
01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,480
Speaker 2: right out there on the corner. I had to go.

1317
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 2: You wouldn't let me in the house for some reason.

1318
01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 2: I said, I'm doing it. I'm dropping this dump right here.

1319
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 2: I actually had thought long and hard about this. I

1320
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 2: think my answer is when we were with the Starters

1321
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:47,600
Speaker 2: doing sort of live television and at times maybe not

1322
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 2: in my head being like fully prepared. You know, you

1323
01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,880
Speaker 2: guys know me, I like to I like to probably

1324
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 2: over prepare, and there were times maybe where I hadn't

1325
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 2: or the script got completely sort of ripped up, and

1326
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 2: it's like, uh, oh, breaking news. And it's like there

1327
01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 2: is a hell of a rush with live television and

1328
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 2: the camera slip on and let's go, where are we going?

1329
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 2: What are we talking about? It's exhilarating. I absolutely love it.

1330
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:16,560
Speaker 2: It's so much fun, but it's you can feel nervous

1331
01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 2: as hell and I guess vulnerable is a is another

1332
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 2: way to put it at times too, So uh, that's

1333
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:24,880
Speaker 2: sort of where my mind went with this, besides taking

1334
01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 2: a dump on your corner line.

1335
01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:33,960
Speaker 3: That's why our pits were always dripping. As soon as yeah, it's.

1336
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 2: It's it's a real thing again. I love it. I

1337
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 2: loved live television. Absolutely think it's a blast. You're right

1338
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,640
Speaker 2: when it's over, you're like, god, that was awesome. I

1339
01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 2: feel like you played a like a sporting event. It

1340
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,920
Speaker 2: really does, especially shows where it is like, oh my god,

1341
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 2: where we go and Matty EO's yelling in your ear

1342
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:50,280
Speaker 2: and you know you're hearing JD talk, so like it's

1343
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 2: fun as hell and it's it's it's amazing and if

1344
01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:53,840
Speaker 2: you really pull it off, and I think we did

1345
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:55,720
Speaker 2: a lot of times, and it's even more fun. But

1346
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,840
Speaker 2: there were times where you know you're you're I would

1347
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 2: that we're about to go in the countdown the four

1348
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 2: three two, I like, holy crap, am I ready for this? Like?

1349
01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 2: Am I ready to talk to people like.

1350
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 3: You're like mad? I don't know if I'm gonna be

1351
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:09,040
Speaker 3: able to make it to this b roll man, I

1352
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 3: don't know.

1353
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, So vulnerable is just as another way to say

1354
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:17,080
Speaker 2: very exciting and nervous. I guess, but leg iunn answer.

1355
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, you guys now how I'd like to go

1356
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 4: into my kids' classes and read to them. So our

1357
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 4: three year old goes to an all Spanish school, and

1358
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 4: so I went in there and tried to read all

1359
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 4: Spanish books to these three year olds who spoke much

1360
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,840
Speaker 4: better Spanish than I did. And I was reading like

1361
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 4: a curious George and a pepper pig, and like it's

1362
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 4: you know, I would read read over it myself at home,

1363
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:42,000
Speaker 4: you know, I'd rehearse it just before I go into

1364
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:45,160
Speaker 4: the class. When you've got these like fifteen beady little

1365
01:05:45,280 --> 01:05:48,760
Speaker 4: pairs of eyes staring at you who speak the language

1366
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:50,800
Speaker 4: better than you do as a forty three year old man,

1367
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:54,360
Speaker 4: it's it's intimidating, you know, And I get a little

1368
01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:57,200
Speaker 4: sweaty in the pits there too, and you know, it's

1369
01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 4: the same thing. It's exhilarating because you're like, you're really

1370
01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 4: out of your comfort zone, but you're also very, very

1371
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:05,919
Speaker 4: insecure and nervous because if you pronounce a word wrong

1372
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 4: or a letter wrong or something like that, you just

1373
01:06:07,880 --> 01:06:09,960
Speaker 4: feel like these kids are going to be looking at you,

1374
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,200
Speaker 4: you know, judging you, going like, how does this guy

1375
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 4: not even know how to speak yet? You know. But

1376
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,520
Speaker 4: but it is so much fun and it's so rewarding.

1377
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 4: But I think partly it's it feels that way because

1378
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:24,560
Speaker 4: it is such a challenge to go in there and

1379
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:26,640
Speaker 4: do it and to try to, you know, speak to

1380
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:28,760
Speaker 4: kids in the language that they speak better than you.

1381
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 5: My most vulnerable is watching Survivor. I mean, I am

1382
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:38,400
Speaker 5: just ready to ball a moment's notice Ben taking a

1383
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:42,959
Speaker 5: knee for Sarah Lesina. Excuse me? Got me so many

1384
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 5: times during Survivor. I think it's when one person expresses

1385
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,440
Speaker 5: their feelings for somebody else. I don't care if it's

1386
01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:53,840
Speaker 5: a state farm ad or if it's I mean, really anything.

1387
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:55,800
Speaker 5: It could be an episode of Peppa Pig where the

1388
01:06:55,800 --> 01:07:00,160
Speaker 5: pig tells the other animals at the farm that you're

1389
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:04,920
Speaker 5: not gonna like this, but I really love you. Goat

1390
01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 5: Susie sheep, Susie sheep. Nice. Yeah, so that's that's when

1391
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:13,240
Speaker 5: I'm my most probable. I think. Actually, Danielle took a

1392
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:15,520
Speaker 5: video of me watching Survivor because I was really into

1393
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 5: a scene. I'm not sure if it was Ben and

1394
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 5: Lesina or I don't know if it was a family

1395
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:29,200
Speaker 5: reunion and seeing myself on camera basically crying capital the vulnerable.

1396
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:33,760
Speaker 1: Well, it's no wonder you feel vulnerable if your wife

1397
01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:39,760
Speaker 1: is videotaping during emotional times watching TV. But yeah, god,

1398
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,760
Speaker 1: I mean my most vulnerable for me is talking on

1399
01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:46,320
Speaker 1: this mic, and especially when I'm reading something, I can't.

1400
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:51,560
Speaker 1: I trip over everything and it's terrible. Yeah, it's I

1401
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 1: hate it. Come back basketball, God.

1402
01:07:55,560 --> 01:07:59,080
Speaker 2: So I don't have to say anything, that's right. What

1403
01:07:59,200 --> 01:07:59,919
Speaker 2: about you, Trey.

1404
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,880
Speaker 3: It's my kids keep me vulnerable as well, mostly doing

1405
01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,280
Speaker 3: yoga anytime they're awake. You know. I like to try

1406
01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,840
Speaker 3: and slip into the zen state, eyes closed, where it's

1407
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:11,760
Speaker 3: just me and my body. But that's dangerous when you

1408
01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:14,960
Speaker 3: got one kid who's all about sneaky cuddles. Sneaky cuddles

1409
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:16,800
Speaker 3: are fine, but you might not expect it when you're

1410
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,160
Speaker 3: in downward dog to have somebody come strolling through your

1411
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 3: legs and want to give you an upside down and kiss.

1412
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 3: That being said, it's a lot better than what Ala does,

1413
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 3: which is sneak attacks. She's getting big now, and I

1414
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 3: feel like anytime I'm face down anywhere, like if i'm

1415
01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:31,320
Speaker 3: you know, sometimes I'll joke around and just pretend to

1416
01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:33,679
Speaker 3: be asleep on their bed, or if I'm doing yoga

1417
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:36,960
Speaker 3: and I'm down face down, she just loves to run

1418
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 3: as fast as she can jump and land on my

1419
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 3: back with her knees, and she's like getting humongous. So

1420
01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 3: I'm feeling every time I close my eyes and both

1421
01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 3: of these kids are awake, you're either getting cuddled or

1422
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:49,880
Speaker 3: you're gonna be getting attacked by a fifty pound cannon ball.

1423
01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:52,799
Speaker 3: And let me tell you, it's just tough to meditate

1424
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:55,599
Speaker 3: when you're worried about, you know, throwing your back out

1425
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 3: or having to go to the hospital because of a

1426
01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:00,400
Speaker 3: sneak attack. Quiteulnerable.

1427
01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 1: You gotta lift, bro, I mean, keep the yoga going,

1428
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 1: but your kids are growing and that the attacks will

1429
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:11,960
Speaker 1: continue and she's only gonna get bigger. Trust me, take

1430
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:15,559
Speaker 1: it from me. I get attacked constantly around here, and

1431
01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,720
Speaker 1: Lican is taller than me. He gave me a high

1432
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:20,640
Speaker 1: five the other day. I thought I was going to

1433
01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 1: have to go to the hospital because.

1434
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:24,440
Speaker 2: He broke my wrist. Oh my god.

1435
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:27,760
Speaker 1: So work out, keep the workouts, but you got to

1436
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,760
Speaker 1: bulk up, man, You gotta it's it's it's no joke.

1437
01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:34,200
Speaker 2: That's why you're working out all the time.

1438
01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:36,920
Speaker 1: One hundred percent, Skeiths. That is why I work out

1439
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:40,759
Speaker 1: just to keep up with my kids, just because they're brutal.

1440
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:45,120
Speaker 2: Next one here, Hey, no, buff, Daddy's actually be careful here,

1441
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:48,160
Speaker 2: tessk this one might make you a little vulnerable. Like

1442
01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:51,679
Speaker 2: tested Lee, I was a survivor Nube loving my intro

1443
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 2: to the show. As a member of the stream team,

1444
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 2: I would typically watch each new episode on Thursday through

1445
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:01,760
Speaker 2: the Global app To Thursday of last week, I've only

1446
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:03,840
Speaker 2: got a few things to do before settling in for

1447
01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:07,000
Speaker 2: the finale. Was about to give Mugs the Dog his

1448
01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:09,519
Speaker 2: pre dinner walk and was thinking of finishing the most

1449
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:13,000
Speaker 2: recent beach step in pod. Queued up the Nodunk's playlist

1450
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,000
Speaker 2: and to my horror, discovered a new episode entitled a

1451
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:21,600
Speaker 2: King's coronation. My jaw hit the floor. Could these Survivor

1452
01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 2: hardoes really include a semi spoiler in the title of

1453
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 2: their Survivor recap ep As a Michelle stan I was

1454
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:31,200
Speaker 2: hoping for a long shot. Upset was that slim possibility

1455
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:33,759
Speaker 2: of hope just robbed from me? At the very worst?

1456
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:35,000
Speaker 2: Did Ben somehow win?

1457
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 3: Sure?

1458
01:10:35,880 --> 01:10:38,320
Speaker 2: Tony was the odds on favorite, but the suggestion he

1459
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,000
Speaker 2: may have taken the crown sapped some of the strength

1460
01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:44,679
Speaker 2: I would need to power through an unprecedented three hour

1461
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:48,639
Speaker 2: episode of reality TV. Ended up fast forwarding through most

1462
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,719
Speaker 2: of the tribals. Just felt like a formality to watch

1463
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 2: the inevitable long story for a short question? What's your

1464
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:59,759
Speaker 2: most long story? For a short question? What's your worst

1465
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:04,280
Speaker 2: experience having something spoiled for you? Slash spoiling something for

1466
01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:07,120
Speaker 2: someone else? All jokes aside. I appreciate the decade plus

1467
01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 2: of reliable entertainment. You guys are the best of the biz.

1468
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:11,879
Speaker 2: Turn up, love you guys awesome. That's from Sean in Ottawa.

1469
01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:14,559
Speaker 2: I wanted to address this first because I am the

1470
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:18,120
Speaker 2: man usually in charge of naming the episodes. Yes, that

1471
01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,200
Speaker 2: was me. I did go with a King's coronation for

1472
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 2: our final No Bust Survivor podcast. I thought long and

1473
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:26,800
Speaker 2: hard about it. In the end, I regret it. I

1474
01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:28,920
Speaker 2: saw one other person I really upset on Twitter. I

1475
01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 2: don't think it was Sean. I think it was somebody else.

1476
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 2: What the hell, Why are you giving us a spoiler

1477
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 2: in the title of the podcast. I don't know. I

1478
01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:38,599
Speaker 2: just thought. I just figured if you were watching surviv

1479
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 2: if you were listening to us talk about Survivor, you

1480
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:43,840
Speaker 2: were probably watching Survivor sort of the night of or

1481
01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:46,880
Speaker 2: before you downloaded the show. So that's my bad. That's

1482
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,280
Speaker 2: my bad. I should have just kept it a coronation,

1483
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,200
Speaker 2: and I originally had that, and then I added the

1484
01:11:51,280 --> 01:11:53,800
Speaker 2: King's coronation with a picture of Tony for when we

1485
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,920
Speaker 2: tweet it on Instagram. So I just wanted to apologize

1486
01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:00,200
Speaker 2: to Sean. You're right, that was out of line, out

1487
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,720
Speaker 2: a line. There's too much of a hint that that

1488
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:04,720
Speaker 2: Tony won, even though as he said, we all knew

1489
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:06,599
Speaker 2: he was gonna win. But I will call you out. Yeah,

1490
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:11,200
Speaker 2: you I'm questioning your Survivor fandom when you're fast forwarding

1491
01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 2: through the final tribal councils here that's not a good

1492
01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 2: look there, Sean, So come on, dedicate yourself to the

1493
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 2: show a little bit more. But apologies, apologies, but anyone

1494
01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:22,200
Speaker 2: have an answer to his question.

1495
01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:25,280
Speaker 3: I actually caught astray from that post as well. Skeets.

1496
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 3: Our friend Jen texted me. She says, those spoilers though,

1497
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 3: you sneak, and I just told her, Hey, I got

1498
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:31,840
Speaker 3: to put podcast money on the table here. I don't

1499
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,280
Speaker 3: have enough time to wait for everybody to watch a

1500
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:37,679
Speaker 3: Tony Win Survivor. But uh, you know you're gonna catch

1501
01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 3: some spoilers if you're on the internet enough.

1502
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:43,920
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, would you spoil the NBA Championship the next day?

1503
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:47,320
Speaker 1: I mean you're gonna congratulate in the title whoever won.

1504
01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:50,800
Speaker 1: So good point, you know, I mean, but I do

1505
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,640
Speaker 1: understand it. He's got a point. I mean, it is

1506
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:56,920
Speaker 1: a show, and I often I will watch the next day.

1507
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:58,639
Speaker 1: I'll wait and watch the next day.

1508
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:01,719
Speaker 4: So but don't you stay off social media for that reason?

1509
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:02,080
Speaker 5: They do?

1510
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,679
Speaker 1: But but I wouldn't say that podcast My podcast feed

1511
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,360
Speaker 1: is social media, right. This is how it was spoiled

1512
01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:08,639
Speaker 1: for him.

1513
01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 4: So that's what I I don't get when people after

1514
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 4: a big climax of an ending a season ending show,

1515
01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:16,160
Speaker 4: people are like, oh, you're spoiled for me. How do

1516
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:17,679
Speaker 4: we know what you're viewing?

1517
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:19,000
Speaker 2: The schedule is?

1518
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,040
Speaker 4: I mean, like you say, with the basketball, if you're

1519
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 4: not watching Game seven of the NBA Finals, then you

1520
01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,600
Speaker 4: wake up and someone's got a podcast that says congratulations

1521
01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:27,559
Speaker 4: to the Cavs. It's like, oh, you spoiled for me,

1522
01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:31,240
Speaker 4: Like watch it or stay on social media like what ell.

1523
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 2: Are you talking about?

1524
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:32,479
Speaker 5: Man?

1525
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:35,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well I didn't need to call it a

1526
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 2: King's coronation, I guess, but what would you what should

1527
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:39,080

Speaker 4: wonder what happened? Yeah, I wonder what happened.

1530
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:47,400
Speaker 2: That was a cool thing that happened.

1531
01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:47,960

Speaker 2: greatest Survivor player of all time. King, he's the king,

1544

1545
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,040
Speaker 2: an answer for this. You know something spoiled, you're pissed off,

1546
01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 2: or maybe you did spoil something for someone else.

1547
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:22,880
Speaker 5: Well, for Mother's Day a few days ago. Actually I

1548
01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 5: kind of pre spoiled something for Danielle. I said to her,

1549
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 5: you know, I want to get something for you. It's

1550
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:37,200
Speaker 5: a scale this really, I don't know, high end scale

1551
01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 5: for the kitchen that she liked at some point, but

1552
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:41,439
Speaker 5: I was I was saying it to her because I

1553
01:14:41,479 --> 01:14:43,479
Speaker 5: didn't remember exactly what the product was, and I looked

1554
01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 5: frequently outline I didn't find it. So basically I was

1555
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:47,360
Speaker 5: spoiling it for her to tell me what it was

1556
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:50,960
Speaker 5: so I could buy it. But I didn't end up

1557
01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 5: buying it, So it was just I didn't up buying anything,

1558
01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 5: so happy Mother's Day.

1559
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,439
Speaker 2: I thought about buying you something A different kind of spoiler.

1560
01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:06,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, mine's the same because with Mother's Day, I have

1561
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,320
Speaker 4: this stuff come from Shutterfly, and you've got to be

1562
01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:12,559
Speaker 4: careful when FedEx turns up because like if Roxanne's at

1563
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:14,840
Speaker 4: home or you know, she's outside when the truck comes

1564
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:17,120
Speaker 4: and this shutterfly, says Lee, and she's like, oh, what's

1565
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,439
Speaker 4: this And I'm like, oh, nothing, just pretend you didn't

1566
01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 4: see it. I'm just going to go and hide it

1567
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,080
Speaker 4: in the house for a little bit here.

1568
01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:27,679
Speaker 2: So yeah, and shontterfly comes like in a bright orange

1569
01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:29,920
Speaker 2: box across.

1570
01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. So it's like it's a bit of a

1571
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:35,160
Speaker 4: giveaway there. But you know, she's it's happened a few

1572
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:37,000
Speaker 4: times now over the years, so she's okay with it

1573
01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 4: all right.

1574
01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:42,360
Speaker 5: Last email. I know thrunks dwights like some city dwellers.

1575
01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:44,679
Speaker 5: I've been displaced from my Brooklyn apartment for two months

1576
01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 5: with my wife and two kids. Most recently we've been

1577
01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:50,720
Speaker 5: at my in laws house in Shorewood, Illinois, where we've

1578
01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,080
Speaker 5: occupied our time with our kids, work, and the Jordan

1579
01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:56,559
Speaker 5: Dock in that order. Since we can't really visit family

1580
01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,000
Speaker 5: and friends, I concluded the next best thing to do

1581
01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:03,440
Speaker 5: would be a safe visit it to tk's hometown of Plano, Illinois.

1582
01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:07,080
Speaker 5: The feedback from my in laws on Plano were I

1583
01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:09,879
Speaker 5: think I've heard of that, and I'm pretty sure, it's rural,

1584
01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:12,840
Speaker 5: so I need some help if I can convince my

1585
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:15,680
Speaker 5: wife that a thirty seven minute drive each way is

1586
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:19,080
Speaker 5: worth it. So what are trays top five things to

1587
01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:21,840
Speaker 5: do in his hometown? Ideally things that a No Dunks

1588
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,400
Speaker 5: fan can do in the current environment, but if playing

1589
01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:27,240
Speaker 5: pool basketball at a specific friend's house is on the list,

1590
01:16:27,320 --> 01:16:31,439
Speaker 5: I don't want to bias Tray ps. Baby number three

1591
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:34,439
Speaker 5: is due in October, and I deemed having skeets or

1592
01:16:34,479 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 5: tasks reading an email on a podcast would be the

1593
01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:39,320
Speaker 5: best way to tell some of our close family members

1594
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:43,040
Speaker 5: and friends instead of the more appropriate phone call zoom call,

1595
01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:51,280
Speaker 5: or through sending another sonogram picture in text that's from Brad. Congratulations, congratulations,

1596
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 5: you got tasks. Everybody knows I actually forgot.

1599

1600
01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:07,320
Speaker 3: of the best for baby announcements. You gotta go with them.

1601
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:08,559
Speaker 5: Way to go, Brad.

1602
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Nicen maternity mellis it's perfect. But let me answer

1603
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,720
Speaker 3: some questions here. You've probably heard of Plano, Illinois. We

1604
01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,759
Speaker 3: make all of the world's tackle boxes. Is it rural

1605
01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 3: Not so much anymore. It's doubled in size up to

1606
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 3: ten thousand people since I moved away. And is it

1607
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:27,920
Speaker 3: worth a thirty seven minute drive. No way. But I'm

1608
01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:31,040
Speaker 3: still gonna hit you with my five things to do

1610
01:17:34,280 --> 01:17:36,400
Speaker 3: the Plano Molding Factory store is closed. You can't go

1611
01:17:36,439 --> 01:17:38,639
Speaker 3: in there and get a kaboodle. You can't run into

1612
01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:41,320
Speaker 3: my classmates at super Walmart. You can't go to Subway

1613
01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,519
Speaker 3: and get a twelve inch sandwich for the price of

1614
01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 3: a four inch round. But here are five things you

1615
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:52,400
Speaker 3: can do tom By Top five, Top five, tom By

01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:56,439
Speaker 3: Top five Top five. You love golf, go play nine

1617
01:17:56,439 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 3: holes at Cedardale golf Course, or maybe drive to Sugar

1619
01:18:02,439 --> 01:18:03,080
Speaker 2: It's up to you.

1620
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:07,400
Speaker 3: At number four. If you like adventure, go play paintball

1621
01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 3: at my friend Billy Goldsmith's aunt's house. She opens up

1622
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,080
Speaker 3: the chicken coops. You can shoot your little paintball guns

1623
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,160
Speaker 3: out of it. It's a lot of places to hide

1624
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:16,920
Speaker 3: out there. You're kind of in a forest, you're kind

1625
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 3: of on a farm. It's a great time. Do you

1626
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:21,840
Speaker 3: love the great outdoors? Why don't you go fishing at

1627
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:26,000
Speaker 3: Silver Springs or the Quarry or Foley Park or Lake Shabanah.

1628
01:18:26,080 --> 01:18:28,720
Speaker 3: They got bass, they got crappie, they got bluegill. If

1629
01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 3: you're lucky, you can catch a brown trout. How about

1630
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,320
Speaker 3: seeing the sights. Yeah, it's a small, tiny town about

1631
01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:37,799
Speaker 3: an hour outside of Chicago. But we've got some world

1632
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 3: famous things in Plano. Twenty eleven's Man of Steel was filmed.

1633
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:46,320
Speaker 3: Plano is Smallville. You can drive down Main Street, Smallville

1634
01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:48,720
Speaker 3: and see a Smallville sign. You could also go to

1635
01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:52,599
Speaker 3: the Farnsworth House, a world famous piece of architecture from

1636
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:55,800
Speaker 3: mize Vanderoa. It's the first glass house ever made in

1637
01:18:55,840 --> 01:18:57,599
Speaker 3: the world. You can actually go there. It's in Plano.

1638
01:18:57,680 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 3: Why is it there? I don't know. You could go

1639
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:05,959
Speaker 3: drive buy a Webby Award winners childhood home. Is that exciting?

1640
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:08,720
Speaker 3: Maybe because maybe my mom will let you into the

1641
01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:11,160
Speaker 3: house to look through some TBT pictures and that brings

1642
01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:13,800
Speaker 3: us to number one. Have a TVT day, do the

1643
01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 3: things I used to do killing time during the long

1644
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:21,559
Speaker 3: break between morning football practice and afternoon football practice. Here

1645
01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:24,559
Speaker 3: are some fun outdoor things you can do to kill

1646
01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 3: a few hours. Build a potato bazuoka. It's out of

1647
01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:31,840
Speaker 3: PBC pipe, hairspray and an igniter. We had one. We're

1648
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:33,880
Speaker 3: shooting it, shooting it, shooting it. Then it stopped working,

1649
01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 3: couldn't figure it out, threw it on the ground, broke it,

1650
01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 3: took it back into the van with us, and it

1651
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:40,120
Speaker 3: went off in the van. That was very scary, but

1652
01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:41,200
Speaker 3: also very awesome.

1653
01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 2: Boom French fries. All afternoon, We're fried up, baby.

1654
01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:47,639
Speaker 3: Maybe you could go to the creek behind my mom's

1655
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 3: house and pour a whole bunch of gasoline into the

1656
01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 3: creek and set it on fire. We called it firewater.

1657
01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:53,880
Speaker 3: It was a fun thing to do when you're sixteen

1658
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,760
Speaker 3: years old. How about drive through a cornfield and when

1659
01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 3: you see a mailbox, throw a forty four ounce big

1660
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 3: gulp at the mailbox. What's going to explode? Is it

1661
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:07,000
Speaker 3: the mailbox or is it your pop? Fifty to fifty

1662
01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:09,559
Speaker 3: But my favorite thing to do in Plano. If you

1663
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 3: have the time, drive one hundred miles per hour or

1664
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,080
Speaker 3: more on Miller Road. We're talking fast and the furious.

1665
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:16,840
Speaker 3: When that first came out, all of us went and

1666
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 3: we were drag racing down that street. Very very dangerous

1667
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:23,760
Speaker 3: but also a rite of passage in Illinois. So those

1668
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:26,080
Speaker 3: are my five things to do. Have a tvtday, see

1669
01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:29,160
Speaker 3: the sites, enjoy the great outdoors, enjoy some adventure, or

1670
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:30,080
Speaker 3: play some golf.

1671
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:33,760
Speaker 2: Plano, Illinois a beautiful.

1672
01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 3: Spot, a beautiful spot. We still got some factories there.

1673
01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 2: Where the firewater burns bright woo. The mailboxes have a

1674
01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 2: little slushi on them or coca on them or something

1675
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 2: like that.

1676
01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:46,280
Speaker 3: Oh that one.

1677
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:48,280
Speaker 2: You are such a country boy man. Wow.

1678
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:52,240
Speaker 3: Man, you would never not believe the drama that the

1679
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:55,679
Speaker 3: mailbox vandals turned up. You know, we were out there,

1680
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:58,439
Speaker 3: we destroyed this one mailbox. Felt a little bad about it.

1681
01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:01,519
Speaker 3: The next time we drive by a gigantic sign made
