WEBVTT - Missing Out On A Trillion & Suspected Reptilians

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:16.680
<v Speaker 1>No, come on, come on this episode of the Heat Check.

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:21.639
<v Speaker 1>While everybody is off eating turkey and mashed potatoes and

0:00:21.680 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 1>debating on whether mac and cheese is a good side

0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:26.599
<v Speaker 1>dish or it's a trash side dish or not a

0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>side dish at all. I am here in the studio,

0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>in the lab. Shall we say for you? It wasn't easy, folks,

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:34.839
<v Speaker 1>It was not easy. I kicked and screamed like a

0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:38.320
<v Speaker 1>little baby today did not But here we are giving

0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>you Thanksgiving dessert, because that's the kind of philanthropic bitch

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:45.960
<v Speaker 1>I am. Some topics. One may be the biggest NBA

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:51.200
<v Speaker 1>story of the year. Is Kevin Durant actually a snake

0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>hiding in plain sight? Does he have grayscale? The internet

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>can't get enough of it. We are also going to

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>break down Jeff Green going into one of the most

0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 1>exclusive almost going into one of the most exclusive clubs

0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA, but of course Andre Drummond had to

0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.759
<v Speaker 1>fuck it up. And finally, I am going to bitch

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>about the subject that everybody knows is bullshit. How the

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.280
<v Speaker 1>NBA is fucking with my money? Past the gravy brock

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 1>and drop that motherfucking I have a serious question is

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:42.280
<v Speaker 1>it possible that we have a snake living amongst us,

0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 1>pretending possibly to be the best scorer in the world

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 1>in the association, It appears what was an innocuous tweet

0:01:54.960 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 1>turns out to actually be evidence in what might suggest

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>that at least one extremity of Kevin Durant might be

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:10.359
<v Speaker 1>actually a snake, a reptile, a reptilian disaster hit happening

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:14.320
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. I mean, it's very rare to see Kevin

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Durant really getting his feelings like he gets in his

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>feelings here and there about the Golden State thing, whether

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.799
<v Speaker 1>he bought the rings or not, whether he's actually a

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 1>bad guy because he didn't stay in Oklahoma City. But

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 1>he knows that he's the best, right he knows that

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:31.120
<v Speaker 1>he's in the pantheon of really great basketball players. What

0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:35.240
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't know, and I'm sure he's insecure about, is

0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 1>his looks. Like we all kind of are. We find

0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>little things about ourselves we don't like. I'm on my

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 1>seventh round and in Visiline right now, so you can

0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:49.359
<v Speaker 1>tell what my insecurities are. It's literally the fifth refinement

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>to try to fix this one fucking tooth, So I

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:54.600
<v Speaker 1>get it. Kevin Durant, Like if someone's like, oh yeah,

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna dissect her mouth structure, which we have, but

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.640
<v Speaker 1>we are on picking about Kevin Durant. And so the

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:08.200
<v Speaker 1>story now goes as follows. Slam kicks. Uh zoomed in

0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:10.360
<v Speaker 1>on a photo of Kevin durant shoes. It was all

0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be a nice tweet about how sick Kevin

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Durant's new signature shoes are. It was quote, you can

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 1>say a lot with them saying what a caption, You

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:29.800
<v Speaker 1>can say a lot without saying anything at all. And

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>of course, in the age of the Internet, in the

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 1>age of sending photos to people with the ability to

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>zoom in the internet, zoomed in, they zoom zoom, shake

0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 1>the room, and everybody was like, what the fuck is

0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 1>up with Kevin Durant's ankle. There was this very small

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 1>amount of skin between his legs leave and his sock.

0:03:53.080 --> 0:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Clearly he knew that that was gonna be the outfit

0:03:56.440 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>choice because he didn't decide, or hadn't in a long time,

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>decided to moisturi eyes. Uh, and oh my god, it

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>looked like the skin had been shall we say, uh

0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:15.440
<v Speaker 1>neglected NBA Twitter came in and burned a house down

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:19.719
<v Speaker 1>for how parched his skin was. Bam out of Bio

0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 1>found it. Center Power Forward of the Miami Heat found

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:27.920
<v Speaker 1>it so alarming that he had to start a group

0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:34.400
<v Speaker 1>chat just for that. He sent it to Draymond Green

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:38.800
<v Speaker 1>to be like, hey, Fam, you see this shit. This

0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.200
<v Speaker 1>is out of hand. Probably a lot of crying emojis,

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 1>like probably some gifts, Probably some crying emoji. This is

0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.800
<v Speaker 1>what Draymond Green had to say about it.

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Jesus Christ came. Bam sent me a picture said there's

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>no way ks this ash, and I said, what the fuck?

0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.400
<v Speaker 2>And then I clicked on the link that Bam sent me.

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:02.840
<v Speaker 2>That was even ash, that was fucking scales and like,

0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it looked like you could go fucking skin

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.280
<v Speaker 2>him like an alligator and take it to the store

0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 2>and sell it. Like that's how bad. That's how bad

0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:15.919
<v Speaker 2>it was. I have not talked to Kevin yet. I

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 2>am looking forward to calling him today and getting his appear.

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I know he gonna say, fuck y'all, Uh, why y'all

0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 2>worried about my ankles? I already know what his response

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.120
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be to my brother Rich Kleimban Pick the

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:32.680
<v Speaker 2>lotion brand that y'all want to endorse and go partner

0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:36.279
<v Speaker 2>with them, because that'll be an incredible story if Kevin

0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:39.159
<v Speaker 2>just comes out the next game incredibly low shit, you know,

0:05:39.279 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 2>with skin looking impeccable.

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I love to see it, Oh my god, I'd love

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.320
<v Speaker 1>to see it. And Twitter some of the best I

0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:52.480
<v Speaker 1>would like to go through some of the best hits

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:55.760
<v Speaker 1>of Twitter. I scanned the internet for some of the

0:05:56.320 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 1>funniest notable jokes. One was KD lay so ashy, I

0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:07.560
<v Speaker 1>thought it was part of the sock. Another one I

0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>seen bros fresh out of prison that weren't as ashy

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>as KD was on National TV. KD being that ashy

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.960
<v Speaker 1>is hilarious just for the simple fact that it's probably

0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the ashiest anybody has ever been on National TV. Here's

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:29.159
<v Speaker 1>my best part. Had this sock came down any further further,

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:34.840
<v Speaker 1>they probably would have cut to commercial. Oh my god. Truthfully,

0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 1>in Kd's defense, it was it looked worse because it

0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:42.839
<v Speaker 1>was tattooed. If it was just raw skin, no black

0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>tattoo ink, making it look like he had a disease

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:51.200
<v Speaker 1>on that thing. Coupled by the fact you're like, god,

0:06:51.360 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 1>damn is that an alligator foot on there? Like, come on,

0:06:56.920 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>it looked like the Black plague hit them kind of

0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:01.360
<v Speaker 1>like it was like, ooh, do you need to go

0:07:01.400 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 1>and get that shit looked at? So how do I

0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>know that Kevin Durant was upset about it? Draymond was right.

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>He literally was like, fuck y'all. He got on Twitter

0:07:13.440 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and tweeted, I'm about to pull my y'all broke card,

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.480
<v Speaker 1>which anyone who doesn't make forty one million dollars, if

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 1>you're considering them broke, I'm sorry, then you're just an

0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 1>elite company about five people. He's like, I'm about to

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:28.840
<v Speaker 1>pull my y'all broke card in a second, fuck y'all.

0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:33.680
<v Speaker 1>So to me, this feels similar to like when you

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 1>go through puberty and your friends find that fact out,

0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Like when a young woman starts to develop boobs and

0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:44.640
<v Speaker 1>like you're not quite boobs yet, but you're not quite

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>flat chested yet, and your friends are like, yo, what's

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>up with your nipples? Bro? Like they literally just like

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I can see your nips and they all get in

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:56.840
<v Speaker 1>unison only that was Twitter, Like that was millions of

0:07:56.960 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 1>people on Twitter coming after Kate. It's like it's bad

0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 1>enough Katie that you never comb your hair fucking lotion

0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:12.440
<v Speaker 1>your raspy ass legs fam oh, and then the kid

0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 1>gets so sad. He gets like furious and he's crying

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 1>at the same time because he has no I it's

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 1>a collective bullying move and he gets so furious, but

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>he knows it's true. He can't do shit about it.

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:27.960
<v Speaker 1>He tries to like say something mean back that literally

0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>hits nowhere, doesn't land at all. He takes his ball

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and goes home because he's got the ball, and ever

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:37.560
<v Speaker 1>he's like, Kevin, come back. We just playing. We just

0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 1>playing Kevin, We just playing, you know, Jerkin having motherfucker

0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:47.400
<v Speaker 1>get Kevin. Only that guy makes forty one million dollars

0:08:47.400 --> 0:08:49.640
<v Speaker 1>a year and he's one of the best pure scores

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:53.040
<v Speaker 1>in history to me, Top five story of the year.

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Like millions of people tweeting about how ashy Kevin Durant was,

0:09:00.720 --> 0:09:05.920
<v Speaker 1>Like literally it was trending. Kevin kd ashy that has

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.120
<v Speaker 1>everything that to me has everything. We now know also

0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:12.720
<v Speaker 1>that kd probably he's in the group chat too with

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:16.400
<v Speaker 1>with Draymond and Bam, all the people that played Olympic

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>basketball together in the bubble of Tokyo just to ship

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 1>talk other players. I'd love to know what was in

0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:25.720
<v Speaker 1>that group chat. Uh it being Kevin Durant, who also

0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.160
<v Speaker 1>has his own podcast, we know this story is not

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 1>going anywhere. I know he's probably going to say something

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.320
<v Speaker 1>about it. I'm surprised nobody asked him about it at

0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.840
<v Speaker 1>the postgame podium. Hey Kevin Durant, Uh, you know lotion

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.520
<v Speaker 1>when you get a shower or what? What's your post?

0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:43.160

<v Speaker 1>Oh man? How great? How great would that be if

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Durant and Draymond restart the feud because Draymond got

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 1>on a podcast and said it looked like he could

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.360
<v Speaker 1>sell his leg skin and they could turn him into shoes.

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Golden State plays Brooklyn January twenty ninth. Expect Draymond to

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 1>come to the arena with a super sized bottle of

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Jurggins just to get it under Kd's snake skin. You

0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 1>did I know.

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 3>Almobi one when out walk golf I feel like I

0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:34.559

<v Speaker 2>On me, the one they talk about, the one they

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:44.840
<v Speaker 2>and the may Nuts.

0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:49.280
<v Speaker 1>The funniest statistic in the league is called a trillion,

0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.800
<v Speaker 1>probably the most rare stat in professional basketball. Uh. It's

0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>when you get exactly no mentions in a box score,

0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:03.080
<v Speaker 1>none zero, no points, no assists, no rebounds, no steals,

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:10.200
<v Speaker 1>no blocks, no turnovers, nothing, nothing, just twelve zeros in

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 1>a row. A trillion. Twelve zeros a trillion. Yeah, it's

0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>so legendary that Mark Titus actually built his career over

0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>around that Club trillion brand. He has a podcast, Club Trillion,

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:29.440
<v Speaker 1>his handle on Twitter Club trillion after all of the

0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:31.240
<v Speaker 1>zeros that he got at the end of the bench

0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.440
<v Speaker 1>at Ohio State. He was there for four years. He

0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:38.400
<v Speaker 1>was at Ohio State, fifteenth man on the bench. Incredible,

0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:41.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of like an anomaly on its own. Like you

0:11:41.679 --> 0:11:43.920
<v Speaker 1>go four years and you still don't go up to

0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:46.199
<v Speaker 1>fourteenth or thirteenth. They're still that bad than in a

0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.400
<v Speaker 1>D one program. They hang let you hang around. You're

0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.600
<v Speaker 1>a glorified towel boy at that point. But you don't

0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 1>get DMPs. You are in the game. You play minutes,

0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:58.720
<v Speaker 1>but you don't contribute anything to society nothing, zero absolute zeros.

0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 1>And he had in that time exactly nine points in

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:07.679
<v Speaker 1>his four years at Ohio State, four seasons, d one

0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:15.720
<v Speaker 1>athlete and many many many trillions, many trillions. So Jeff Green,

0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Green is no Mark Titus. Jeff Green is about

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 1>to play his one thousandth NBA game. This guy has

0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:28.880
<v Speaker 1>attempted ten thousand, three hundred and thirty two shots to

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:34.079
<v Speaker 1>date in the fifteen seasons, playing for eleven teams. All

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.720
<v Speaker 1>I have to say, like, Jeff Green's been an elite

0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:41.360
<v Speaker 1>athlete for a long time, in high pressure moments for

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.160
<v Speaker 1>a long ass time. Like he's been in the league

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:49.760
<v Speaker 1>doing things. But you know how it goes. In Philadelphia's

0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>game against Denver, Jeff Green, Denver nugget played twenty three

0:12:55.520 --> 0:13:05.800
<v Speaker 1>minutes and recorded exactly one rebound, nothing, nothing else, zip, zero, nada.

0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 1>He took exactly zero shots. He didn't get a block,

0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:14.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't get a steal, not an assist, not a turnover,

0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:19.079
<v Speaker 1>didn't even commit a foul, did not even commit one

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 1>foul in twenty three minutes. That's pretty rare to do.

0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 1>The only statistical contribution. Contribution that he had in almost

0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.800
<v Speaker 1>a half a basketball game was a rebound, one rebound

0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:37.040
<v Speaker 1>that fell into his lap because fucking Andre Drummond missed

0:13:37.040 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 1>his free throw. We were so close to seeing an

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:47.319
<v Speaker 1>NBA trillion, Jeff Green, Fucking Andre Drumming that trillion should

0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>have been yours. Jeff Green. I do not know how

0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:55.559
<v Speaker 1>I can express how hard it is to play meaningful

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>minutes of NBA basketball and literally do nothing, not even

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:05.800
<v Speaker 1>a turnover. Twenty three minutes and you did nothing statistically zero,

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:10.119
<v Speaker 1>Like you played a half of basketball and almost contributed

0:14:10.160 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 1>in no way that anyone It was almost like you

0:14:12.040 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>weren't even there. Only I know that people are gonna

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:19.640
<v Speaker 1>give me the well trust, well, actually trust He was

0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:23.480
<v Speaker 1>a plus thirteen, all right, so we'll go yes, yes, yes,

0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Stats don't tell you everything. He played defense, he said, screens,

0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.640
<v Speaker 1>he worked his way around some picks. He even deflected

0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>a pass or two. He was minus one in the

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 1>game that the Sixers lost by fourteen, So he was

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 1>good on the floor statistically then when he was off

0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:47.640
<v Speaker 1>the floor. But come on, now, we were one. Andre

0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Drummond made free throw away from Jeff Green, joining the

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 1>most exclusive club, the Trillionaires Club. And I don't think

0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:01.560
<v Speaker 1>I can possibly convey how sad I am about that.

0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Like I wanted that for Jeff. I wanted him to

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:08.360
<v Speaker 1>go into a rarefy. It's like the uh, what's that?

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 1>The Mile High Club. It's like that, only worse, you

0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:18.760
<v Speaker 1>know less, definitely more rare, but worse less, worse, worse time,

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:22.600
<v Speaker 1>probably a worse time. We were so close to seeing

0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>so incredibly rare that I would have hung my hat

0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:27.920
<v Speaker 1>on for Jeff Green. Kind of a dope club I

0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 1>could love to see, like a Marked Titus Jeff Green

0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:35.760
<v Speaker 1>podcast collab. Maybe saw merch with Jeff Green's face. It's

0:15:35.800 --> 0:15:39.760
<v Speaker 1>like Club Trillion. And of course the funniest thing to

0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:44.080
<v Speaker 1>me was that, of course Andre Drummond was the fly

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:49.280
<v Speaker 1>in the ointment, as he always is. God damn it, jigga,

0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't like it if it don't gleam, blame in

0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the hell with the Christ.

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:54.440
<v Speaker 3>But the money ain't to put it down. Half of

0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.640
<v Speaker 3>a dog that's locked in the bring. When you hit

0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 3>the bricks blue with money, ain't a dang y'all want

0:15:59.320 --> 0:16:04.240
<v Speaker 3>to bloss We burn it up, drop a little paper baby,

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:06.480
<v Speaker 3>chaws it up. You see licking on your pim bit.

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:07.360
<v Speaker 3>Turn it up.

0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:09.760
<v Speaker 1>You see the money ain't The NBA thinks we're JD.

0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:12.720
<v Speaker 1>They think we don't. They think we just have all

0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the money. Money ain't a thing. Yeah, it's like we're

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>jay Z and JD and we're skate skirting our lambos

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>when you hit the bricks new whips. Money ain't a thing,

0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.520
<v Speaker 1>y'all want to floss with No. Money is not not

0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 1>a thing. Money is actually a thing for me, NBA,

0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Like we need to talk about it, NBA. I got

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 1>a beef. I have a beef. I have lost so

0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:40.160
<v Speaker 1>much money that I definitely don't have to be losing.

0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:42.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not like I'm just throwing out dollars out of

0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:46.280
<v Speaker 1>my fucking ferrari my whip. Like this is not real

0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:48.800
<v Speaker 1>life for me. Come on now. So I was on

0:16:48.960 --> 0:16:56.880
<v Speaker 1>bet MGM the other night debating, just vacillating, puzzled on

0:16:56.960 --> 0:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>whether I should take Portland minus six and a half

0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 1>against the Denver Nuggets. What so Michael Porter Junior is out?

0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:07.520
<v Speaker 1>I know it. He's out indefinitely. Jimal Murray out indefinitely.

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.960
<v Speaker 1>What about Yo Kichen? I'm looking I'm looking on Twitter?

0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:15.200
<v Speaker 1>What am I gonna do. I'm waivering. Is Ian is

0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.760
<v Speaker 1>he out? Is Ian is he out? He's questionable. I'm

0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:22.160
<v Speaker 1>looking on Twitter, I'm looking on stat mus, I'm looking

0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:28.280
<v Speaker 1>on NBA Fantasy Draft dfs, this, this, this, literally, I'm scouring,

0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:30.800
<v Speaker 1>like do I take this fucking bets or do I not?

0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Then all of a sudden, we see Yokich on the

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:37.280
<v Speaker 1>TV warming up line moves the four. I'm like, all right, well,

0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.680
<v Speaker 1>he's definitely gonna play. I'm stand away, stand away from

0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:46.280
<v Speaker 1>this game. Nope, comes ends up getting ruled out two

0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:50.320
<v Speaker 1>minutes before game time. Same thing ends up happening with

0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the MAVs and Luca against the Clippers. Same night, a

0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:57.879
<v Speaker 1>d also against the Knicks was ruled out. All you

0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.720
<v Speaker 1>saw boomed sickness. He's sicky, he's sicky. Oh he's ruled

0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.840
<v Speaker 1>out with the flu non covids's sicky, sicky, And then nope,

0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:09.560
<v Speaker 1>motherfucker played that game. Play that game. Yes he did.

0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:12.840
<v Speaker 1>And that's when I saw this tweet. You know, I

0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:16.040
<v Speaker 1>had a spiritual moment when I saw this tweet. It said,

0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:18.560
<v Speaker 1>it was almost like I felt it the moment it

0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 1>was tweeted, like, oh my god, someone got inside of

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:23.720
<v Speaker 1>my brain inside of my soul and tweeted this out

0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:26.199
<v Speaker 1>before I could even properly communicate this. This is what

0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:30.959
<v Speaker 1>he said. The NBA needs to be better with the

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:34.480
<v Speaker 1>injury deadlines. Still no word if ad is gonna play.

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Also no clue about Luca. How does the NBA expect

0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 1>people to wager on games? Fucking right, Jason McIntyre, This

0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:50.919
<v Speaker 1>shit right here, hits hard, This right here. This is

0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>why people hate betting on the NBA. This is why

0:18:55.320 --> 0:18:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the NFL has a ten page document on injury reports,

0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:03.880
<v Speaker 1>how to report them, when to report them, what fines

0:19:03.920 --> 0:19:06.200
<v Speaker 1>you get if you don't report them in correct order,

0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:12.199
<v Speaker 1>correct timeliness, and factually this is the NBA's policy, the

0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:15.440
<v Speaker 1>whole policy for them. Now have ten Like listen, ten

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:17.640
<v Speaker 1>page document versus this a little blurb that I'm about

0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 1>to tell you on a thirty minute podcast. Twenty twenty one.

0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Twenty twenty two season, NBA teams must report information concerning

0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:28.600
<v Speaker 1>player injuries illnesses in the rest for NBA games by

0:19:28.640 --> 0:19:31.639
<v Speaker 1>five pm Local time on the day before a game

0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:37.480
<v Speaker 1>local time. What do you mean that's nine p come

0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:39.879
<v Speaker 1>on other than the day of a back to back,

0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:44.000
<v Speaker 1>teams must designate a participation status and identify a specific injury,

0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.960
<v Speaker 1>illness or potential instance of a player resting. For any

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 1>player whose participation in the game might be affected by

0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:53.919
<v Speaker 1>some injury, illness or rest for the second game of

0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:56.640
<v Speaker 1>a back to back, teams must report the above injury

0:19:57.040 --> 0:19:59.680
<v Speaker 1>information by one pm local time the day of the game.

0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Reporters reports are updated on a continuous basis throughout the day.

0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:07.760
<v Speaker 1>That's a lie, no, they're not. The problem, though, is

0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:11.080
<v Speaker 1>that the NBA has an inordinate amount of late game scratches,

0:20:11.240 --> 0:20:15.679
<v Speaker 1>such as Nikola Jokic against the Blazers. So this problem,

0:20:15.720 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>to me is even more exacerbated and magnified by the

0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:25.359
<v Speaker 1>age of COVID really due to the disease, not only

0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:29.960
<v Speaker 1>that itself, but the wonky schedule that created so many

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 1>fucking back to backs for us. They get special rules

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:36.560
<v Speaker 1>for reporting things like load management. You don't have to

0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:39.720
<v Speaker 1>report load management until the day of but this time

0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:43.159
<v Speaker 1>because of this thing. Not to mention what happens if

0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:45.359
<v Speaker 1>you get like a last minute close contact, what happens

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>if you get the last minute close inconclusive test for

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:51.879
<v Speaker 1>COVID late gain scratch? All of this means, I mean,

0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>it's bullshit. It's bullshit. I've lost so much money on this.

0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:59.560
<v Speaker 1>All of this means that the NBA has become one

0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:02.680
<v Speaker 1>of the most unpredictable sports to bet on, which means

0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:05.240
<v Speaker 1>the worst bet sports to bet on. Like I like

0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 1>particular predictability with how things are going to go for me.

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:12.240
<v Speaker 1>The Lakers recently scratched Ady and Brawn late, less than

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.760
<v Speaker 1>an hour before game time, and the line moved seven

0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 1>fucking points. That's a lot. They just they just take

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:20.879
<v Speaker 1>it right off the board too. You don't even see it.

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Then you see it comes back up no eight points more,

0:21:23.800 --> 0:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>You're like, whoa, yikes, Blazers four point favors. If you

0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:30.560
<v Speaker 1>get that shit early and then something turns around, you

0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>are in bad, bad shape, bad bad shape. Blazer's four

0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:39.320
<v Speaker 1>point favorites against the Nuggets until yokich Win's completely scratched,

0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:46.280
<v Speaker 1>the line moved very quickly to eleven eight points. Are

0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:50.520
<v Speaker 1>you serious? A lot of times you're basically betting, not

0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:52.720
<v Speaker 1>just on a spread or a total, but whether like

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:55.800
<v Speaker 1>someone like Embiid is going to play or not. Like

0:21:56.160 --> 0:21:58.760
<v Speaker 1>that's an easy way to get burned. Embiad's pretty fucking

0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:01.320
<v Speaker 1>important to a team's success. Don't you think the only

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:04.359
<v Speaker 1>thing we can try to do. This is where it

0:22:04.359 --> 0:22:09.399
<v Speaker 1>gets insane. This is where it's like like, hey, who's

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:12.360
<v Speaker 1>in the arena right now? Like, oh, some random guy

0:22:12.400 --> 0:22:15.680
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter's like, hey, uh, I'm in section two thirty two.

0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at Nicolai okicch right now. He's got the

0:22:18.600 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 1>green bands around both knees. He's doing Oklahoma drills and yeah, yeah,

0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:33.840
<v Speaker 1>exactly exactly. But literally, those band drills, those band drills

0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:38.359
<v Speaker 1>are only designated, from my professional opinion, as a rehab drill,

0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:42.000
<v Speaker 1>not a pregame warm up. So in my estimation, Nicole

0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Okitch is out, and it's like do I trust Mark

0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:49.439

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 1>don't know, Like, is he fucking with me? Does he

0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:55.040
<v Speaker 1>follow every bedding account? She's trying to get some cloud?

0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:57.879
<v Speaker 1>What are you up to? Mark? You know? What is

0:22:57.920 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 1>your angle? Here? Is he sweaty? How sweaty is he? Ad?

0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Looks pretty sweaty? Is Oh? That means he's gonna play

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:10.280
<v Speaker 1>ads in not taking the bet. I'm staying away. I mean,

0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:14.760
<v Speaker 1>come on now, that would never happen in the NFL. Never.
