20

36
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 2: We got lots to talk about, so let's start with them.

37
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: Is this news? Is this news? The segment here on

38
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,800
Speaker 2: No Dunk Square, I give you some NBA headlines and

39
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 2: we debate whether or not they're newsworthy. I'm gonna take

40
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 2: two headlines here to start and go back to back.

41
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: All right, NBA dot Com San Francisco, Bay Area to

42
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: host NBA All Star twenty twenty five. That's official. And

43
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 2: then right off of that from ESPN Adam Silver, I'll

44
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: take responsibility for All Star game lacking effort. Okay, So

45
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 2: San fran getting twenty twenty five All Star weekend and

46
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: then Silver saying he's gonna take some respect ability here

47
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: for what's been going on with these lackluster All Star games.

48
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: Is this news? Yeah, that's news. We know where we're

49
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: going in twenty twenty five.

50
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,079
Speaker 3: We're going to the Bay Baybay should be good.

51
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, haven't been to the arena yet.

52
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: You know, spent a lot of time in San Francisco

53
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: for NBA related events over the past decade with the

54
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 3: Warriors going to the finals time and time again. Fun city,

55
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 3: big city, gonna be very crowded for All Star weekend,

56
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,119
Speaker 3: a high density city. So yeah, I'm excited to see

57
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: the new arena. And you know, I guess at that

58
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: point Steph Curry will be getting even closer to the

59
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: end of his career there in the Bay So a

60
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 3: nice way to you know, I mean not saying he's

61
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 3: going to retire after twenty twenty five, but it's cool

62
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 3: for him to get to host an All Star Game

63
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 3: as one of the faces of the league.

64
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then this second hot headline I think is

65
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 2: one where we can really unpack here. So Silver said Monday,

66
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: he will take responsibility for the lack of intensity a

67
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: parent in recent NBA All Star games, a realization he

68
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: came to after speaking with Chris Paul. Okay, because Chris

69
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 2: Paul recently pointed out to Silver that all of the

70
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: pregame and halftime distractions, the hoopla of the All Star

71
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 2: Game are interfering with the players normal game day routines.

72
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: So Silver is taking some of the responsibility, taking some

73
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: of the blame, saying, we're sending mixed signals, right. We

74
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: want these guys to treat this like a real game,

75
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 2: you know, and have some intensity, not finals intensity, but

76
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 2: some real game intensity. But then we have all this

77
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 2: other stuff going on and it's mixed messaging. What do

78
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: you think about this? Do you think this is fair?

79
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: Do you think this is silly? Who is to really

80
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 2: blame for these shitty All Star Games?

81
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 3: Well, my advice to Adam Silver would be You're not

82
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 3: a piece of space age titanium, So don't be so

83
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 3: hard on yourself. This is not Adam Silver's fault. This

84
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 3: is an excuse from the players. When I think back

85
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 3: to the most distracting halftime at any All Star game ever,

86
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 3: it's Mariah Carey at the two thousand and three All

87
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 3: Star Game, which was Michael Jordan's final All Star game,

88
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: which was a classic. It went to double overtimes, skeets.

89
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 3: I mean, this was a big time game, one of

90
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 3: the best of all time, and had a monster celebration

91
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,919
Speaker 3: at halftime and before the game. You go back to

92
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: recent memory, the best All Star game we've had in

93
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 3: the past couple of years, definitely twenty twenty in Chicago.

94
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 3: That was when Common was doing his rhyming introductions. Ye

95
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 3: chance the Rapper performed at halftime. The thing I took

96
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 3: away from this, there's a quote from Chris Mullen at

97
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: the end of Mark Spears's story there where he says

98
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 3: Mullen said, the key for those All Star games being

99
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 3: competitive in the nineties was having two NBA superstars in

100
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 3: Magic Johnson and Larry Bird taking the charge. The top

101
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: guys have to set the standard like it's Bird and Magic, Mullen,

102
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: tol Dandscape.

103
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 2: That's it. That's all it comes down to. Yep.

104
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 3: Did the top guys that are playing out there care

105
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 3: to give us a good game? If they do, we'll

106
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 3: get a good game. They cared in twenty twenty. It

107
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 3: was just after Kobe Bryant had passed away. That was

108
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 3: a guy who took All Star Games seriously. They did

109
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 3: the Kobe inspired elam ending for that game, and players

110
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: gave it. They're all out there, So I think if

111
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 3: there is a commitment from everybody to make this a success,

112
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 3: it will be a success. It doesn't come down to

113
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 3: are they taking longer for introductions, do they have a

114
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 3: halftime act that's exciting to watch? That stuff does not matter.

115
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: It matters if you care to put on a good game.

116
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 2: So you don't think if back in the nineties, I

117
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 2: don't know, Fresh Prince and DDJZ Jeff were giving us

118
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 2: a twenty minute set at halftime, that would have changed

119
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 2: how Magic and Larry looked at the game and it

120
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,359
Speaker 2: would have affected their intensity. No, I don't think so.

121
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 3: I think there's been performances for a long time, and

122
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 3: there used to be good All Star Games.

123
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess on one hand, I get the idea

124
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 2: of like we can scale back a little bit we

125
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: don't have to pretend this is the super Bowl. You know,

126
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: it doesn't need to be that nuts. But sure you

127
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 2: are still trying to sell the game and get people

128
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: tuning in. And sometimes that takes a musical artists or

129
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: something fun at halftime, celebrating a legend or something like

130
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: that in the case of MJ with Mariah Carey. But yeah,

131
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: this is an insane excuse and like this idea, like, hey,

132
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: we're just looking for a basketball game, so now we're going,

133
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 2: you know, get rid of the elam ending and you know,

134
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: get rid of the draft, Like let's just play basketball, Okay,

135
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: just play hard, don't. I really don't think it has

136
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 2: to do you know, with their schedule being all at

137
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 2: a whack for them to go, you know, a little

138
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: competitive in the final six minutes of an All Star Game.

139
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 2: I don't think it had to do with a longer

140
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 2: build up to the start of the game or a

141
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 2: longer halftime. This that's this is weird. We're out of

142
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 2: our routines, come on, come on. But hey, okay, well

143
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,880
Speaker 2: then then there's no excuse. Then this year it sounds like,

144
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know what they're gonna do, but

145
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: it sounds it's gonna be a little more normal, like

146
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 2: a real basketball game. So they should play hard.

147
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 3: They should play hard, Okay, Yeah, And honestly, we're not

148
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 3: even asking for twelve minutes.

149
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: No, that's the effort in the fourth quarter.

150
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 3: Like you're saying, we need about six minutes, Like keep

151
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: it close, don't get lowan out either side through three quarters,

152
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 3: so that we have a chance at something exciting possibly

153
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 3: happening at the end of the game. I also think that,

154
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 3: like I can't imagine people are tuning in for the

155
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 3: halftime x so from one perspective, I'm like, nobody's tuning

156
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: in to see Chance the Rapper. Oh, Chance the Rappers

157
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 3: performing at halftime of the All Star Game. That's not

158
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 3: a draw, so makes some sense here. I also love

159
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 3: that anytime there is uh something that's not going well

160
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 3: for the NBA, they just send Joe Dumars out there.

161
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: He's like the dad of the NBA.

162
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,599
Speaker 3: They're like, you gotta have an eighty two game mindset,

163
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 3: all that resting that doesn't actually work. I did the

164
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 3: math on it. You gotta do your best out there.

165
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: You don't have to, you don't have to play hard

166
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 3: all the time. But you gotta give some effort. My

167
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 3: dad used to give me more money on my report

168
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 3: card for our efforts. You know you would get a

169
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 3: grade yeah yah through F grade, but then you would

170
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: also get an effort from your teacher. I got paid

171
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: much more for the efforts. And that's what that sounds

172
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 3: like we're getting here from Joe Dad Dumars.

173
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 2: This really does sum up how much of a player's

174
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: commissioner Adam Silver is when he's going to this exten saying,

175
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: you know what, this is my fault. I'm to blame

176
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 2: for this. You know, Chris Paul and the guys are saying, oh,

177
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: their schedules, crazy man. When it comes to the All

178
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 2: Star Game, Ah, I overdid it. I thought everybody wanted

179
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: to see Chancellor Rapper. You know, by bad by bad,

180
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: you're going too far in my opinion. But let's just

181
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: I guess this is a classic wait and see here

182
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 2: in Indianapolis in twenty twenty four, it come February, you know, okay,

183
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,599
Speaker 2: it's back to basketball.

184
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 3: It's back to BASKETBA. Let's see if I got a

185
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 3: couple of questions for you skeets. What I'm seeing here

186
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 3: from Chandler in the stream team who says.

187
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift for halftime.

188
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 3: I think if Taylor Swift said I want to perform

189
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 3: at halftime of the All Star Game, the NBA would

190
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 3: be like, actually, we are going to do all that stuff.

191
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 3: We're going to have a very long halftime because people

192
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 3: would absolutely tune in for that. Number two Skeates, I

193
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 3: got to connect five for you. Okay, here are your

194
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 3: five players to connect all right, Ricky Davis, Steve Francis,

195
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 3: Larry Hughes, Tracy McGrady, Jerry Stackhouse.

196
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 2: Uh oh, I think I know. I believe these are

197
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: all dunk contestants in the two thousand Dunk Contest in Oakland,

198
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 2: the one that Vince Carter obviously put a show on.

199
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 2: That's exactly right.

200
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: The twenty five year anniversary of the two thousand Dunk

201
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 3: Contest will be the twenty twenty five All Star Games,

202
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 3: hosted by the Warriors once upon a time. So I'm

203
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 3: saying we got two years to get the Dunk Contest

204
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 3: completely two complete success mode.

205
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,199
Speaker 2: Okay, I love it. Oh yeah, that's great. Yeah yeah,

206
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 2: I mean, hey, just bring Vince Carter back. I have him.

207
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 2: Don't sure how old believe you At the point I mean,

208
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 2: at least let him be a judge. He's got to

209
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: be a judge for that one. Yeah, yeah, okay, I

210
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 2: love it all right. Next headline here from Dave mcmanhamon

211
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 2: at ESPN Lebron James lack of free throws prompts Lakers

212
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:55,959
Speaker 2: to contact MBA. Is this news? This ain't news? Why

213
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 2: this is not news at all?

214
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 3: Because this happens all the time in general and specifically

215
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 3: with the Lakers. The twenty twenty bubble, the Lakers sent

216
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: clips about Lebron getting filed too much. Twenty twenty one,

217
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: the Lakers sent clips about Anthony Davis getting foled too much.

218
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 3: Last year, we had the league apologizing for sleepless nights,

219
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 3: that they were going to have sleepless nights after the

220
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 3: Lebron went to the hole and didn't get a foul

221
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 3: call against the Celtics. Remember that was like Patrick Beverley

222
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 3: bringing out the camera taking pictures. Yeah, the league apologized

223
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 3: for that. Even in the playoffs last year, the Los

224
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 3: Angeles Lakers were irritated that the Golden State Warriors did

225
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: this exact same thing to them. Stan Steph Curry wasn't

226
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 3: getting filed enough in their series against the Lakers. It

227
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: happened so often. I found this from Sam Amck writing

228
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 3: about the Lakers and the Warriors during last playoffs. Sam Wrights.

229
00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 3: In terms of the process, teams have a team Inquiry

230
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 3: website where they can indicate which plays they wish to

231
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 3: be reviewed. After each game. That information is shared with

232
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 3: their opponent, as is any email, text, or phone call

233
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 3: in which a dispute of any specific call is communicated.

234
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: They literally had a tip line for this. Yeah, so

235
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: it happens all the time.

236
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 2: Every team does it. Yeah, They get their staff to

237
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 2: put together the clips or upload them, and then everybody

238
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 2: has to review it at the NBA. I think what's

239
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 2: interesting is like, so when does it come public? Why

240
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: does it come public? Why is Dave mcmanhamon on this.

241
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 2: You know it is Lebron giving him on a little

242
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: nudge saying, hey, we're you know, we're sending in the clips.

243
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 2: Didn't like how I was officiated against the Heat. Let

244
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 2: the world know, Dave that Lebron is pissed and frustrated

245
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: because it was that specific game. I mean, there is

246
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: one play where Lebron gets popped in the face by

247
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 2: Thomas Bryant. I think it's late in the third quarter.

248
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 2: You can fire up the clip, you know, funny enough,

249
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 2: I think the ball bounces back to D'Angelo Russell and

250
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: the Lakers actually score on the possession. But yeah, Lebron

251
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 2: is like, I got hit in the face. There's another

252
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 2: one though, I think it's in the second quarter where

253
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: Duncan Robinson. You know, there's some contact sort of in transition.

254
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: I think Lebron thinks he got sort of pushed from

255
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: behind or bumped, but there was no call, ye you know,

256
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 2: from the officials. So he's just tired of this very

257
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 2: difficult to officiate. You know. His whole thing is like

258
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 2: I never flop, I'm never trying to embellish. I actually

259
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 2: do believe that. I don't think you see him a

260
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 2: lot of times like he's trying to play through the

261
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 2: physical contact. He drives a lot, and that's the thing

262
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 2: they're like, hey, look at the numbers. This guy drives

263
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: a ton, and then the free throw attempts don't seem

264
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 2: to make sense, though there are other players in the

265
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 2: league who drive just as much or more and also

266
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: don't get to the line. I get why, but this

267
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 2: is why all the teams are doing this. Everybody feels

268
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: like they're being slighted and getting the short end of

269
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 2: the whistle. Yeah. And if you.

270
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 3: Saw the press conferences or heard the quotes from Darvin

271
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 3: Ham from Lebron after the game against the Heat, they

272
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 3: basically said all of this same stuff that is now

273
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 3: coming out via protest with the league.

274
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,079
Speaker 2: And the Thomas Bryant foul.

275
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you're right, the Duncan Robinson looked like a

276
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,479
Speaker 3: foul too, but the Thomas Bryant one is pretty egregious.

277
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 2: Sure that one is bad, but the stats back it up.

278
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 3: You mentioned yesterday on the show Lebron owns the restricted area. Yeah,

279
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 3: right now. Dave McManamon has the stats. Thirty four players

280
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 3: so far this season have seventy or more drives.

281
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 2: Lebron is eighth. Lollis foul rate like he isn't drawing

282
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 2: a ton of fouls.

283
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 3: He goes to the hoop. He's always been very, very

284
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: hard to officiate. And I do feel like we've had

285
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 3: a rough and tumble start to the season skeets, and it

286
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: feels like they're letting a little bit more contact go,

287
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 3: which is cool to watch. But we've talked a lot

288
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 3: already this season about how dedicated. Lebron has been to

289
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: getting inside and getting to the hoop, and he's not

290
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 3: taking a ton of foul shots. So I see their beef.

291
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's also like, hey, if I'm gonna keep

292
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 2: doing this, I'm gonna keep driving. You got to put

293
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: me to the free throws right couple of times. So

294
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: he's upset there. Yeah, eighth lowest rate among those players,

295
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: Like you said, to record a decent amount of drives.

296
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: So there are other guys. There are seven other guys

297
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: in fact, who have just a equal of gripe maybe

298
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 2: And and you know what, you see that stat you

299
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 2: actually got to go look at the drives. You got

300
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: to see, like, well, how much contact is there are

301
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: these some of these wide open dunks I assume, so

302
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 2: there is that as well. But this is nothing new.

303
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 2: I'm with you, this was not newsworthy. This wasn't news.

304
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 2: I fooled you. I got it in there. It looks

305
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 2: like news. It's a lower third on your screens to

306
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 2: but we'll see. I mean, after any sort of public

307
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: protests like this from a from obviously a superstar and

308
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: a big name team, watch that next game. How are

309
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: the whistles called in the Lakers game they play against

310
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 2: the Houston Rockets tonight. Ten plus trips on the ducket

311
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: Oooh okay, you're gonna hit the over, are you?

312
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: Yes?

313
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 3: I doubt Houston can guard him all that. Well, maybe

314
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 3: he'll get stuck by either Jabari Smith Junior or i'm

315
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: In Thompson. Young guys. They'll get called for a lot

316
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 3: of fouls. Sorry, Welcome to the NBA.

317
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 2: Okay, next one. Here we'll go to Blazer's Edge for

318
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 2: the headline. Unfortunate headline. Robert Williams the third to undergo

319
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 2: knee surgery. Is this news?

320
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is news, but it's bummer news for Robert

321
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 3: Williams specifically, and I mean the Blazers as well. I

322
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 3: don't know how long of a tenure that Robert Williams

323
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 3: was gonna have in Portland. But this guy fought through

324
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: a left knee injury in the twenty twenty two regular season,

325
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 3: came back early to help the Celtics go to the finals,

326
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 3: came back and the finals, played through it, had to

327
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 3: have another surgery in his left knee that summer. Played

328
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 3: thirty five games last season, just six this year, and

329
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 3: now he's dealing with a right knee injury.

330
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 2: So that just sucks.

331
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 3: I mean, the guy's only twenty six years old. He

332
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 3: signed through the twenty five to twenty six season, which

333
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 3: is good. I do feel like every time that he's

334
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 3: had surgery so far, he comes back and somehow looks

335
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 3: just as explosive as before. So it ain't over till

336
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 3: it's over. I guess we also haven't heard what kind

337
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 3: of surgery's gonna have. He could have one version of

338
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 3: the surgery that keeps him out for the rest of

339
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 3: the season. He could have a cleanup that lets him

340
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 3: get back sooner. I personally think he should sit the

341
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 3: whole season just so he can be healthy for next season.

342
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna miss an extended period of time. That's

343
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 2: where we're at right now as they weigh the decisions

344
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 2: with what surgery. Did you see how he injured his knee?

345
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 2: By the way, did you see the clip? I tried

346
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 2: to track it down. Was it just hitting knees? It was?

347
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 2: I mean I couldn't even see knee attack. Maybe there was,

348
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 2: like I thought when I heard him, like, oh no,

349
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 2: he fell, you know, coming down for a rebound. Yeah,

350
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: maybe stepped on somebody's foot and his knee like you know,

351
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: torqued one way, he took a bump from Triple J

352
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 2: in the lane and just fell back and then yeah,

353
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 2: grabbed his knee immediately and was like and I think

354
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: he sort of like tried to play through it, but

355
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 2: it just looked harmless, you know, in a weird way.

356
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 2: It's like, Okay, guy was almost like trying to take

357
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 2: a charge or he took a big hit and that's it.

358
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 2: But you know, these knees man on this guy. It's tough.

359
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: But every time he has come back, he turns right

360
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 2: back into one of the league's best rim protectors. This

361
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 2: definitely changes the equation of maybe trading him though, because

362
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: there was a lot of talk about that he comes over,

363
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: you know, Tyler does to Portland in that Drew Holiday trade,

364
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, what effect does that have on all of it?

365
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 2: Will he just be there for the season, probably, But yeah,

366
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 2: it sucks. It sucks. He is one of the best

367
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 2: defenders in the league when healthy, but he just can't

368
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 2: stay healthy with these damn knees.

369
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think he was gonna be one of

370
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 3: the bigger trade targets. I think so com trade deadline times.

371
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 3: So now if you're looking at Biggs, it's maybe, like

372
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 3: maybe Clint Capella. He's got this year and next year

373
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 3: left on his deal with the Hawks, but they're playing

374
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 3: pretty well to start the season. He's a big part

375
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 3: of their team. Miles Turner signed the big extension. We'res

376
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 3: but he's always going.

377
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 2: To be in the mix. He hasn't had a great

378
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 2: start so far this year.

379
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 3: And then I guess Valentunis and Olynik are probably in

380
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 3: the mix as well, but not quite the impact player

381
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 3: that Robert Williams can be.

382
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 2: No. All right, next headline here Sports Business Journal, Diamond

383
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 2: Sports reaches deal with the NBA. Let me explain this. So,

384
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 2: Diamond Sports Group reached a one season deal with the

385
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 2: NBA that essentially guarantees that Bali Sports RSNS Regional Sports

386
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 2: Networks will continue to carry NBA games through the end

387
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 2: of this season. Is this news my good man?

388
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 3: Well, I guess it's good that they're gonna keep streaming

389
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,239
Speaker 3: the games they said they were gonna say or they

390
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 3: were gonna stream, and also good news that the deal

391
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 3: runs out at the end of this season. Diamond's Sports Group,

392
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 3: Sinclair Bally Sports, whatever you want to call it. Yeah,

393
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 3: I think it's good that the NBA is getting out

394
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 3: of business with them because Bally sports the worst quality. Yeah,

395
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 3: for sure, it looks so bad. Yeah, they deal with

396
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 3: fifteen teams in the NBA, and it feels like you

397
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 3: can tell which ones they are when you're watching on

398
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 3: League Pass.

399
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, But I don't know.

400
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 3: I don't really have a huge take on this except

401
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 3: for that, I think local blackouts should.

402
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 2: Go away on League Pass. I agree, maybe that'll happen.

403
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 2: Maybe that will happen. Yeah, you bring up the broadcasts themselves.

404
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,159
Speaker 2: You're right, it's always got this sort of weird color

405
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: balance to it. It's sort of grainy compared to a

406
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 2: lot of the other ones. The sound is also not great.

407
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 2: It's pretty awful. So yeah, I guess it's good these

408
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 2: games will at least continue through the season because, like

409
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: there's some bankruptcy issues going on with the Diamond Sports Group.

410
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 2: But I'm with you, man, I hope that once these

411
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 2: are done, the NBA has got to get these regional

412
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 2: sports rights back, you know, from Diamond. At the end

413
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 2: of the season. They should fold them into League Pass.

414
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,680
Speaker 2: And if they even want to, if it's an absolute must,

415
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 2: I don't think they should, But if it is a must,

416
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 2: charge a small small fee, extra fee, I would call

417
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 2: it for those that want to watch local games to

418
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 2: at least make it profitable for them. Now, I don't

419
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 2: think you should. It should be in your league pass

420
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 2: cost and all of that, But the idea that people

421
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 2: get lead pass and then can't watch their local team

422
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 2: is the most insane thing. It's turning us a life

423
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 2: of crime skates, right VPNs, that's right.

424
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta go check out crackstreams. Right, It's so

425
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: silly local teams.

426
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 2: It is so silly. But yeah, I mean, I know

427
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 2: people with the Bali Sports app trying to uh to

428
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 2: watch these games. All I see on Twitter sucks. It

429
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 2: never works. I can't get it to load. So everybody's

430
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 2: gonna be happy when this is done. But yeah, there's

431
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 2: there's fifteen local broadcasts, you know, the MAVs, the Clips,

432
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: the Calves, the Spurs, among many others in there of course, yeah,

433
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 2: the Hawks, right.

434
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 3: I wonder how many teams will follow the model Sons

435
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 3: and Jazz are doing. They're taking their deals ran out

436
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,239
Speaker 3: at the end of last season, so they have their

437
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 3: own rights and they're just putting them on TV. They're saying,

438
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 3: we're not making money off of this, but more people

439
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 3: are going to see our team, right, which is the

440
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 3: most important thing.

441
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's a good point. Well how many will

442
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: follow suit there or can do that or want to

443
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: do that? So yeah, I guess it's at least good

444
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: that they have come to a deal to just at

445
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 2: least make sure games are on on the network here

446
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,640
Speaker 2: on their app when it works, all right, final one

447
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 2: here the Athletics bring website. Go to the Athletic dot

448
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 2: com slash no do just get yourself a subscription. Steve

449
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 2: Kerr intends to step down as Team USA coach after

450
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 2: the Paris Olympics in twenty twenty four. Is this news?

451
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 3: I guess this is news because it tells us this

452
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 3: is now part of the Team USA cycle. You get

453
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 3: the coach, you lose the World Cup, then you get

454
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 3: the best players, then you win the Olympics, and then

455
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 3: you move on and start the whole thing over again. Right, So,

456
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 3: congratulations to Team USA on the gold medal and twenty

457
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 3: twenty four. I can't imagine any team would possibly challenge them,

458
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,719
Speaker 3: certainly not from their own continent. And congratulations to Eric

459
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 3: Spolster who I think should be the next guy.

460
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 2: You're probably right, yeah, Curse said quote to me. This

461
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 2: is a two year cycle, Okay, pop coach at the

462
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 2: World Cup and the Olympics. Now it's my turn to

463
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: pass the baton. I think that's kind of how it

464
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 2: should be. And then he notes here frankly, it's a

465
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 2: huge commitment too. So currently serving on Kerr's bench, Eric

466
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 2: Spolstra of the Miami Heat, Tylou of the Clippers, and

467
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 2: Gonzaga coach Mark Few is there as well. So I'm

468
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: with you. If Spoe wants it, it'll be Spoe's job.

469
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 2: That makes sense. The next cycle for international basketball following

470
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four Olympics start basically in twenty seven,

471
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 2: right with the World Cup, and then followed by the

472
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 2: Olympics in LA in twenty twenty eight. So you know,

473
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 2: it's still a commitment, but maybe less travel. If you're

474
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: the American coach and you're coaching TMSA in LA.

475
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 3: Brown will be forty four then, or nearing four before

476
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,880
Speaker 3: I suppose maybe he'll coach.

477
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's a lot of like you said, everybody,

478
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 2: all the stars want to come play and redeem the

479
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 2: team that got fourth in the World Cup and win

480
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,479
Speaker 2: a gold medal here in twenty four over in Paris.

481
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 2: I did have a laugh in Joe Varden's article, though

482
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 2: I didn't know that tam Usao is rolling out an

483
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 2: excuse for their fourth place finish in the World Cup.

484
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 2: Quote a nasty illness swept through the team on the

485
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,159
Speaker 2: final weekend in Manila, knocking out brandon Ingram against Germany

486
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: and three players out against Canada. It's absolutely true. Wow,

487
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 2: actually true wow. Making excuses now for losing to Canada.

488
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 2: That's new to me. No.

489
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 3: I mean that at the time, nobody cared about the

490
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 3: Canada game. You well, yeah, that was a game for

491
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:43,880
Speaker 3: third place.

492
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:44,199
Speaker 2: That's a.

493
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 3: Country like Canada would be happy with third place. So

494
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 3: Team USA did not care. This is more about losing

495
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 3: the previous.

496
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 2: Game to Germany. Yeah, Ingram there, so yes, Steve Kerr

497
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 2: in theory this will be his last head coaching job

498
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,959
Speaker 2: at the international level in Paris.

499
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 3: I think it was a much bigger commitment for Mike Kruschowski.

500
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 3: He coached for a long time and there was a

501
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 3: lot more pre stuff. You know, remember this year they

502
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:09,679
Speaker 3: came in They're like, we didn't even have tryouts. We

503
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 3: just picked the guys.

504
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good. Point.

505
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 3: That wasn't how it was prior to uh Popovitch, prior

506
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 3: to cur I mean Popovich had tryouts.

507
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I wonder how Eric Spolstro will

508
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 2: do it. Yeah, that's true. All right, we're gonna take

509
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: a first break when we come back. Oh baby, we're

521
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 2: tweets and your YouTube comments all your questions about the NBA.

522
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 2: Sometimes they're not a lot of fun here. So first one,

523
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 2: it is NBA related for sure. Who is getting the

524
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 2: next five by five in an NBA game? I'd bet On,

525
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 2: Scottie Barnes or Sara Thompson rookie there for the Pistons.

526
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 2: But are there dark horses? I'm missing Wemby blocks so much.

527
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 2: Maybe him that is from Ken in Denver. Ken in

528
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 2: Denver knows that we here at no dunks are five

529
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 2: by five sickos. We love. It doesn't happen often. Last

530
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 2: time it happened in the NBA twenty nineteen, use of

531
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 2: Nurkic was the guy to give us a five by five.

532
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 2: For those that don't know, five by five player registers

533
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 2: at least five points, five boards, five steals, and five assists.

534
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 2: I don't know why I put it in that order. Points, rebounds,

535
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 2: assists and then steals. Blocks is usually the order you go.

536
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 2: So you gotta get five in every category in the

537
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 2: box score. But yeah, uh, who do you think is

538
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: our best chance at getting one this season? You agree

539
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,400
Speaker 2: with Ken's picks? Where are you going?

540
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 3: I mean, Scottie Barnes, Sar Thompson, Wemby all solid choices. Yeah,

541
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: but you gotta have some dark horses because nobody would

542
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 3: have ever picked use of Nurkic. Nobody would have ever

543
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 3: picked Jamal Tinsley to do this. It's like random dudes

544
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 3: just have a crazy game. So here's my number one

545
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 3: dark horse for this.

546
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 2: Jalen Suggs literally shrugged that. Ja. Jalen shrugs. I don't know.

547
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 2: He's a committed defender. Just gotta get five points. That's easy.

548
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 2: Five steals, I think easier than five blocks. But who knows.

549
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: He just has a hot night tipping it from behind.

550
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 3: Maybe he gets credit for a low strip that turns

551
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 3: into a block. Suddenly you get a five by five. Yeah,

552
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 3: Jalen Suggs, I honestly, I don't mind it.

553
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 2: I did some research on this. We've only had four

554
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 2: five by fives in the last decade. Nurkic twenty nineteen,

555
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis in twenty eighteen, Draymond Green in twenty fifteen,

556
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 2: and then Nick Batoum for Portland back in thirteen. So

557
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 2: ten years ago. The only players with multiple five by

558
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: fives Ondrake Kirolenko he had three in his career and

559
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 2: keim Elaijuan had six. So I did look at the

560
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 2: last season and this season, who are guys that have

561
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 2: flirted with the five by five again over basically the

562
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 2: last two seasons. I wanted them to be good in

563
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 2: the points the rebounds in the CIS category, so we

564
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 2: put that into stat head and then I went with

565
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 2: three plus in the defensive categories. Here's the list of

566
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: names we've had three this season. Scotty Barnes yep had

567
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 2: a very good game recently a couple days ago where

568
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 2: he had three steals and three blocks, and then everything else.

569
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 2: Desmond Bean thirty three eight seven, three blocks and four steals,

570
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 2: all right, and then Evan Mobley fourteen to ten, five assists,

571
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 2: four blocks, three steals. I think Mobley is a nice,

572
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 2: nice pick here. Yeah, and then last year I won't

573
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 2: go through all the stats, but most guys had three

574
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: and three or three and four in the defensive categories.

575
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 2: LaMelo Ball, Kristaps Porzingis, bam Adebayo, Jimmy Butler, Steven Adams,

576
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: Nikhil Bridges, Ben Simmons, and Shay Gildess Alexander. So that's

577
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 2: the guys that have flirted with it. If you consider

578
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 2: flirting at least three and three in the defensive categories

579
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: and five plus in the other ones, which I do,

580
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 2: that's a flirt. That's a flirt. So I think you

581
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 2: know a lot of those names. You could you could

582
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 2: see why it could happen on any given night. You're right,

583
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: you gotta get like you need a play where you

584
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 2: get like two or three blocks, like right away, one

585
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 2: of those like weird ones where you just like rack

586
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: it up in a hurry. I think that helps your chances.

587
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 2: I also checked. The only guy to have five blocks

588
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: and five steals in the same game over the last

589
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 2: five seasons was Anthony Davis. He didn't get the five

590
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 2: by five. He was short in assists. He had thirty

591
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 2: seven points, twenty one boards, five blocks, five steals, two assists.

592
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: November twenty twenty two with the Lakers. So I mean

593
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,479
Speaker 2: eighty is a great solo definitely here. Yeah. Jillen Sugs, though,

594
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 2: I love, is the wildcard. Yeah. Sure, it's gonna be

595
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: a wild card guy. I hope he does it. It

596
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 2: would be amazing.

597
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 3: We asked early, but yeah, absolutely we will if Jalen

598
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 3: Suggs comes through with a five by five at any

599
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 3: point in his career. I'm digging up this show. November eighth,

600
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 3: committed to memory.

601
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 2: But we asked earlier. This week.

602
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 3: We were talking after Usar Thompson had his huge game

603
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 3: fourteen points, nine rebounds, four, four and four.

604
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 2: For assists, steals, and blocks.

605
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 3: We compared that to somebody who would have five or

606
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 3: more and four of the categories, but then only two

607
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 3: and whatever the remaining category, whether it be steals or blocks,

608
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 3: which is closer. About seventy percent of people say four

609
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 3: four four at the end is closer.

610
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: Than just one. That's how I voted. Well, I voted

611
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 2: the opposite side. That's fascinating. That's exactly right. It really

612
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 2: just sums up us as people, doesn't it how we

613
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 2: look at all? Right? Great question there, ken, all right.

614
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 2: Next one, Hey dunk a runs with the new n

615
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 2: season tournament and Ocean's eleven crossover and Trey's recent letter

616
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: boxed ratings of games. This got me thinking about the

617
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 2: film and basketball industries. If players are the movie stars,

618
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: does that make the coaches the directors? If so, who's who?

619
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 2: And comparing Hollywood's best with the NBA's masterminds. Ps Trey,

620
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 2: please drop the letterboxed handle and this is from Rob.

621
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 2: I've got some other notes from Rob's but you are

622
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 2: on letterbox I'm on letterboxed. Do you and you updated frequently? No?

623
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, I'm a rare updater. For me.

624
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 3: I'm not writing reviews. I'm rating movies, and I love

625
00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 3: the watch list feature so I can actually remember.

626
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,600
Speaker 2: Okay, you want to find me? It's my name. It's

627
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 2: just like everything else. What's the last movie you think

628
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 2: you raided on letterbox?

629
00:30:57,600 --> 00:30:59,959
Speaker 3: Last movie I rated was Taylor swifts Miss and Mary

630
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 3: Kana documentary. We watched it this weekend with the girls.

631
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 2: Three and a half stars at a five? Or is

632
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 2: it a four? O? Five? Okay? Okay, so it was okay,

633
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 2: it was good. It was good. Yeah. Yeah, were you

634
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 2: dancing in the aisles? It was at home? Oh? I

635
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 2: thought you meant the one. Didn't you go see Taylor

636
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 2: Swifton in the movie's.

637
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 3: I think I rated that one for four stars. Definitely

638
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 3: better the concert film Different things. I didn't even yeah

639
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,480
Speaker 3: that I found out. Uh, she's already got another concert

640
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 3: film on Netflix for the Reputation Tour. So I'll watch

641
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 3: that with the girls later this week. Concert film that

642
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 3: I would rate five stars. Stop making sense, talking Heads,

643
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 3: All Time Classic?

644
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, all Time class? All right? Well at Trey

645
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 2: Herbie then basically on letterbox. Okay, there you go, Rob

646
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 2: some rob notes with this and JD. I mean you are.

647
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 2: You're a movie buff, so chime in with this, you know,

648
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 2: answering this question, but Rob notes, okay, coach pop comes

649
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: to mind. My comp would be Martin Scorsese, a highly

650
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 2: celebrated and accomplished, somewhat crotchety old man who's been directing

651
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: or coaching for a long time. Some thing he should retire,

652
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 2: but he seems to find new stars to work with,

653
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 2: keeps revitalizing his career and remains one of the best. Okay.

654
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: And then other directors to consider Michael Bay flashy but

655
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 2: not always uh, you know, a lot a lot of

656
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 2: what's the word substance that's right to maybe some of

657
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 2: his flicks. Is there a Michael Bay coach? I mean,

658
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: I'm putting you on the spot here, Okay, okay, never mind,

659
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 2: consider it. Michael Bay, greta Gerwig, a Newish comer who

660
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 2: is shaking up the industry. Okay. Jordan Peel orchestrates thrillers

661
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 2: and has established himself as an exciting leader of the

662
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,719
Speaker 2: industry by subverting expected genre. So anyway, those are some

663
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 2: directors to consider. Any answers to this Pop Scorsese, I

664
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 2: love it. Yeah, that one that makes sense.

665
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, good one, no, no, no, wise, Pops is Spielberg

666
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: solid all the way through his career. Scarsese is all

667
00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 1: over the place, you know. But you give Spielberg a script,

668
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: He's you're gonna enjoy the movie. It's just solid, no nonsense,

669
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: you know, like.

670
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: Pounding a rock. That's yeah.

671
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: I mean you're in good hands with your in when

672
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: you're with Pops, right. Yeah. Like, if I'm gonna make

673
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: a movie, if I have a script, I want Spielberg

674
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: to make it. Period. Like if you that's your first choice,

675
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 1: Pops is my first choice, doesn't matter how old he.

676
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 2: I heard you on the recent or one of the

677
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: recent is this Good's going nuts about being upset with

678
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 2: I guess European theaters they wanted to put in an

679
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: intermission in May, which is like three and a half

680
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 2: hours long, if not longer.

681
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, three and a half hours.

682
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 2: And he says he's pissed off about that, says stop.

683
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: That that's right. Yes, I want it to be seen

684
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: as it was intended with a full bladder.

685
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 2: I want you to piss in your seat in that movie.

686
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 1: I have a Greta, a greta Gerwig. Okay, I think

687
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 1: it's actually Steve Kerr because Greta Gerwig very accomplished journeyman actor, right,

688
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: and then she switched to director and had immediate success.

689
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: Oh wow, her first okay, her first film was Ladybird,

690
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: got nominated for like eight Golden Globes out the Gate.

691
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 1: Like there was her first solo directorial debut. I mean

692
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 1: she had co directed something else before, but that's sort

693
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: of occurred to me, like that's great.

694
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, So okay, Jerome here chiming in on slack. There

695
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 2: we go. Doc Rivers is Michael Bay.

696
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: That's not bad.

697
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: That's pretty damn good. And then Brad Stevens is JJ Abrams.

698
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: Set the tone, left the role may need to come

699
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 2: back to try and bring it all the way not

700
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 2: too bad.

701
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 3: Okay, do you have any uh yeah, I mean I

702
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 3: had a Greta, I had a Steve Kerr, But I'll

703
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 3: give you some other ones. I think Jason Kidd is

704
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 3: m Night Shamalan and Eric Spolstra is David Fincher. There's

705
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 3: always a twist in an m Night Shamalan movie. There's

706
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 3: always a twist in a David Fincher movie. Both of

707
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,839
Speaker 3: these teams, the MAVs in the heat, they always play

708
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 3: clutch games, so you know something interesting is gonna happen

709
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 3: at the end. But David Fincher and Eric Spolster are

710
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 3: actually good.

711
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 2: Yeah night, Shyamalan night, give me Fincher over m night.

712
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: I had a Fincher as well. Yeah, I gotta Fincher.

713
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: It's he's not a current coach, but stan Van Gundy

714
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: because David Fincher and Jake Jillenhall had a little bit

715
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: of a falling out when they were making Zodiac, Like

716
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 1: Fincher's a guy who likes to take sometimes like fifty

717
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: or one hundred takes. Oh, jillen Hall is like, what

718
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 1: are you doing? What are you doing man? You know,

719
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: and then Fincher just kind of threw him under the bus.

720
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 2: You know.

721
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: It's like this guy was a kid actor. He's not

722
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,919
Speaker 1: an artist. He doesn't know. This reminds me of stan

723
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 1: Van Gundy and Dwayne back.

724
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 2: In the the awkward Diet Pepsi conference.

725
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 1: Anyways, it's a specific thing, but you know there's some similar.

726
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 2: There's something there. Another one from Jerome He's on fire,

727
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 2: Mike Malone, h is Sophia Coppola, I think the family tree. Yeah,

728
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 2: and talented and having success Yeah, absolutely checks out. I

729
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 2: want to see Priscilla. There you go.

730
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: Uh else, I had George Carl.

731
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 2: You went with a bunch of guys that aren't even coaching.

732
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 1: On I had to google sta. I don't know coaches, Okay,

733
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 1: George Carl is David o'russell. He fights with everyone.

734
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,439
Speaker 2: He definitely his whole cast. Yeah, they hate him.

735
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: I think he came to blows with almost too blows

736
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 1: with George.

737
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 2: Clooney, really hockeybees.

738
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: I remember that deal well. Lily Tomlin went at him,

739
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: but it was three kings that Clooney good. He's a

740
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: good director. And I think George Carl's a pretty good

741
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 1: coach too, right he was?

742
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,720
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, he won a ton of games. Obviously

743
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 2: came up short a couple of times, but and he

744
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 2: does get into it or he's got a lot of opinions.

745
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 2: He doesn't hold back, that's for sure, be it current

746
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,280
Speaker 2: players or now that he's obviously not coaching anymore, calling

747
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 2: out other guys.

748
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I got one last, Yez, you're on fire

00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: here a deep cut. This is a deep cut. And

750
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 1: then Trey, you may have to fact check me here,

751
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:28,879
Speaker 1: Tim Floyd, let's go me former former Bulls coach.

752
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 2: He was a college coach that had.

753
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, he came in right after Phil Jackson, right, yeah, yeah,

754
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: those are big shoes to fill, so Tim Floyd, Joss

755
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 1: Whedon came in after Zack Snyder left. Justice League, laid

756
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: a giant turd like awful. I mean, he didn't have

757
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: much to work with though, right, which, same thing, right, Like,

758
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 1: it's it's a Justice League. It's a bit of a mess. Yeah,

759
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,359
Speaker 1: and it had to be four hours as it turned out,

760
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:03,280
Speaker 1: for that was Zack Snyder's vision. Joss Whedon is like, nah,

761
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna Buffy the Vampire Slayer this and just like

762
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: just crank it out. And it was not good, difficult,

00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: put in a difficult to.

764
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,040

767
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 2: most directors. It's fantastic. I'm glad we did that one.

768
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 2: Well done, guys, All right, next one here, hey, mates,

769
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 2: just a question cooked up down under as it reaches

770
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 2: forty degrees celsius one hundred for you lads, well a

771
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 2: hundred for our guy TK or team Celsius over here, baby,

772
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: even though we live in the States. It's hot. Okay,

773
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 2: it's hot in Australia. Over the last few seasons, the

774
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 2: Warriors have seemingly done a large heel turn from the

775
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 2: most like team in the league to one of the

776
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 2: most hated. Is this the biggest heel turn for a

777
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:58,800
Speaker 2: team the NBA has ever had? Does anyone else top them?

778
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 2: The NBA did dirty by not sending an in season

779
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 2: tournament pack to you. That's from jac I brought that

780
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 2: up the other day. I saw another one. Somebody was unboxing.

781
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: Who the hell was it? Uh? Someone one of our

782
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 2: friends in the media. They got a box a n

783
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 2: season tournament. There's some there's some Hennessy. There's a little

784
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 2: shot glass or some nice glasses. It's got a beautiful

785
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 2: bo Yeah, nice light glasses, like sort of rock tumbler.

786
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 2: Oh okay, it's awesome looking. And we didn't I mean,

787
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 2: unless it's sitting in our peel box office, which we

788
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 2: haven't checked it a while. So what the hell? Anyway,

789
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,920
Speaker 2: biggest hill turn? You got it? You got one? Or

790
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 2: is this is it? The Warriors? I mean, the Warriors

791
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 2: is pretty good. They were the darlings but yeah, they

792
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 2: were the darling.

793
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 3: I mean, they were the darlings when they won their

794
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 3: first championship, and if you stretch back to the We

795
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 3: Believe Warriors, like that was everybody getting fired up. Not

796
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 3: to mention they were like decades long losers for a

797
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 3: long time, and then they've been on top of the

798
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,280
Speaker 3: game for you know, basically ten years. Twenty sixteen obviously

799
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 3: the turning point. They won seventy three, then lost with

800
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,920
Speaker 3: Draymond and Lebron getting into it with a nut slap,

801
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 3: and then.

802
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: Of course Kevin Durant joined the team, so that's a

803
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 2: huge one.

804
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 3: I don't know if you consider the Heat when they

805
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 3: got Lebron a heel turner, if that's just the Lebron

806
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 3: heel turn where he started wearing like fanged mouthguards, fangs.

807
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 3: His first season with the Heat, that was crazy, but

808
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 3: basically the second season came, he's like, that's not me

809
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 3: at all. Yeah, it wasn't working. The only other one

810
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 3: I could really think of the Memphis Grizzlies. When John

811
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 3: Morant was ascendant, he was very fun to watch. People

812
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 3: liked when they were talking trash. But then in the

813
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 3: middle of last season, even before the suspensions and stuff

814
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 3: with job. People were loving to dunk on the Grizzlies

815
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 3: when they were doing their walking down all stuff. Dylan

816
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 3: Brooks was a big part of it back then. Uh

817
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 3: Basically people just thought they were a little bit too

818
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 3: big for their breitches, having not yet accomplished anything outside

819
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 3: a regular season success.

820
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,319
Speaker 2: It's a that's a great call and recent call at least.

821
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 2: So the team that everybody was like really in on

822
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 2: and then everybody was like, yeah, you haven't done anything yet. Okay,

823
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 2: so what you won some regular season games? Why are

824
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 2: you acting like you're you know, you're the you're the shit.

825
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,400
Speaker 2: But uh, I think the Warriors is the best like

826
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 2: immediate turn because it's like, yeah, you know, they win

827
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 2: seventy three games and then they they bring on Kevin Durant.

828
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 2: People already have an opinion about him and him joining

829
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 2: up with them, and they're like, okay, now they're the villains,

830
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 2: and then you need your villain to be amazing, and

831
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 2: they were and he was winning finals MVPs and they're

832
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 2: winning titles. So I think that that helps out the

833
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 2: narrative here. But it's a good good calls there. Final

834
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 2: one goodey Oh yeah, we're taking a good Day and

835
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: an aoh never heard that before and jamming them together.

836
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 2: Australia coming through with the questions here good day. Oh.

837
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 2: I had the day off from work yesterday and I

838
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,839
Speaker 2: finally I finally got around to watching the movie Air.

839
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,239
Speaker 2: The part where they're they are creating the Jordan one

840
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,919
Speaker 2: and discussing the NBA shoe policy of the time where

841
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 2: all shoes had to be at least fifty one percent white,

842
00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 2: got me thinking about some other silly NBA rules that

843
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 2: are still enforced. Personally, I'd love to see the NBA

844
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 2: adopt the international rules when it comes to rebounding the

845
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:09,240
Speaker 2: ball off the rim. Yeah, preach great one. What silly

846
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 2: NBA rules would you guys like to see changed or removed?

847
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: That's from Hurley in Melbourne, Australia.

848
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 3: I hate when somebody gets a technical foul for hanging

849
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 3: on the rim. After it does, It's happened a lot.

850
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 3: I think at the beginning of this season perhaps it

851
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 3: was a point of emphasis that we didn't really know about.

852
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 3: But a lot of times guys do it for safety,

853
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 3: that's totally fine. A lot of times guys do it

854
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 3: to celebrate, and it's even better. So that to me

855
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 3: is like you threw down a big dunk.

856
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 2: Let it out a little bit? What yeah, so yeah,

857
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,240
Speaker 2: why give that a tech? It's just like un sportsman

858
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 2: like that, you're showing off the other tea. Yeah, it's

859
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,799
Speaker 2: so dumb though, And you're right. Sometimes these guys are

860
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 2: just hanging up there because of their momentum and they

861
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 2: don't want to let go the otherwise they'd flip and

862
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,600
Speaker 2: fall on their back, or they're in traffic and they

863
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 2: don't want to drop under underfeet and legs and stuff

864
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 2: like that, and and the rest will like they decide

865
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 2: right like, oh, was he doing that for safety or

866
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 2: was he doing that because he wants to be a

867
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 2: Kenyan Martin about it and tell meybe slap a backboard

868
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 2: or two. But I'm with you, it's so stupid. Yeah,

869
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:14,600
Speaker 2: Like why why can Steph Curry go night night, good

870
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 2: night night to you babies. I just kicked your ass.

871
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 2: We're all like amazing, that's great, good, which it is,

872
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, I love it. But a guy

873
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 2: hanging on the rim because he threw down a huge dunk, like,

874
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 2: oh that's too far. Yeah, And if anything, he's actually

875
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 2: just putting his own team at a disadvantage. Inbound the

876
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 2: ball and go the guy's just still hanging there. That's

877
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 2: the disadvantage right there with you. That one is ridiculous.

878
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, Kenyan Martin the all time great backboard slapper.

879
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 3: These days we had gentle slaps. They throw it down

880
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,799
Speaker 3: and just yeah, little gentle touch. You see little Brown

881
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 3: do it every now and then.

882
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 2: Yeah he does.

883
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 3: Any other silly rules replay, yeah, replace Still it ruins

884
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:50,280
Speaker 3: most games.

885
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, we need to get rid of. I would like

886
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:57,760
Speaker 2: to take away some timeouts, yep, some challenges and replays

887
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,000
Speaker 2: and all that. I could do with about half of those.

888
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 2: Joel was talking on no bunts. We were talking about

889
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 2: the automated strike zone possibly coming to MLB. I guess

890
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 2: they're doing it down in the in the minor leagues. Now,

891
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: there's one where they just like basically the computer calls

892
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 2: balls and strikes and it's relayed to the ump and

893
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 2: that's it. But then there's this other system that they're

894
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 2: debating where the batter, the catcher and the pitcher will

895
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 2: have challenges that you immediately have to sort of trigger.

896
00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 2: And then I guess, almost like tennis, where they go

897
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 2: to like the Hawkeye and see if the ball hit

898
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 2: the line or not, it'll like happen right away. But

899
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 2: I'm like, do not do this, do not go down

900
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:38,879
Speaker 2: this slippery slope because it slows things down. Man, it's

901
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 2: not fun. And then I honestly hate it. I'd like

902
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 2: this so many like let's go to review, and it's

903
00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 2: like happening all the time, and I only think it

904
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 2: should be in the final minute or two minutes or whatever.

905
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,720
Speaker 2: That's it personal opinion, but yeah, too many replays.

906
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 3: Too many replays. I feel vindicated. I was against the

907
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 3: second challenge coming this year. Slow things down, and it

908
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,400
Speaker 3: absolutely slows things down and gives coaches another timeout. Like

909
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 3: that's Steph Curry game winner.

910
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 2: What a bummer?

911
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,600
Speaker 3: You know he hits the floater against Uh okay, see

912
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 3: they go to replay forever. It's a confusing replay and

913
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 3: it doesn't change anything except it makes us wait to

914
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 3: actually know what happened. It could have just been a

915
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 3: great moment.

916
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you're right, you're right. It's just like and

917
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 2: like not even like the idea of like, okay, let's

918
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 2: go replay, so that's gonna take two minutes, and you're

919
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,920
Speaker 2: like Okay, why you guys complaining about two more minutes

920
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 2: to a two and a half hour broadcast. You know

921
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 2: what it does, though, It just like ruins the flow

922
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 2: of a game at times. That's my number one complaints, Like, Oh,

923
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 2: this is going here, there's some movement here, this is

924
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 2: a flow to this game. It's getting exciting. And then oh,

925
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: oh was that a charge or was that a block? Oh,

926
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 2: let's go take a look at it. It's like, seriously, like,

927
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 2: no one cares that much. I'm sorry, unless it's in

928
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 2: a pivotal part of the game, then I okay, I

929
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 2: don't mind a team having a challenge. That's it. But yeah,

930
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,160
Speaker 2: that's a good one. Come on, tighten it up, Come on, Silver,

931
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 2: take some responsible for that.

932
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 3: People like accuracy, you know, too much, vagueness too much.

933
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 2: That's why people are afraid to do live live podcasts

934
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 2: like we do. True, you're afraid of it. So what

935
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna fuck up a name, I'm gonna fuck up

936
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 2: a stat who cares?

937
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: Move on?

938
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: You know totally, you don't need to tighten it all up.

939
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 2: My favorite is when I listen to podcasts where like

940
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,439
Speaker 2: they say, like okay and the movie hair, Oh, damn air. Okay,

941
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pick it up here in three two one,

942
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,800
Speaker 2: all right, watching the movie air and then you're like, whoop,

943
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 2: you forgot to edit that part out. I get so

944
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 2: excited when.

945
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:33,759
Speaker 1: I hear that.

946
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 2: That's great. I love when I love when the edited

947
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:37,720
Speaker 2: part gets looped. More than one.

948
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 1: That happens it.

949
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 2: That's why I just do it live. Yeah, come on, no,

950
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 2: it's not the end of the world. You mess up

951
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,240
Speaker 2: a line, you stutter over line, hows us all the time?

952
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 2: Just put the work in, you get better at It's.

953
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 1: Easy for us to say we did a live TV shows,

954
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,840
Speaker 1: easy for us to say, excuse me, I mean and

955
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:05,359
Speaker 1: now at this point.

956
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, honestly, it's just like who cares?

957
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,479
Speaker 1: That's also true.

958
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's like it happens when you're talking to your

959
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,839
Speaker 2: friends at the bar about the game. You're gonna screw

960
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 2: up a name or a player or a stat or

961
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 2: like you just roll with it, You move on with

962
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 2: it anyway. What a weird little tangent there. That's what

963
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 2: also happens. That's the beauty of it. Let yourself go

964
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 2: on the tangents, take a path that you don't think

965
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,240
Speaker 2: you're gonna go down and then come back. We always do, always,

966
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 2: we always do. Great questions, keep them coming, No dunks

973
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,959

00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,239
Speaker 3: Don't bring up the actual tweet of the night quite yet,

977
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 3: because I saw another one that I think plays into

978
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 3: the actual tweet of the night quite nicely. I saw

979
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 3: Alex Wong at Steven Underscore Lebron tweeted last night no

980
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 3: NBA games tonight. Perfect time to catch up on absolutely nothing.

981
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,200
Speaker 3: What'd you do with your night off skates? You watch anything?

982
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 2: Oh? No? I did some prep work for No Bunths. Okay,

983
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:28,040
Speaker 2: so you have to do that when you do a

984
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,879
Speaker 2: live show. Got you you know, got ready for this one.

985
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,520
Speaker 2: Obviously a little bit I did get in some Winterhouse. Okay,

986
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 2: piece of shit show that I had to watch. That.

987
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 2: That's just something I like to do with my wife. Otherwise,

988
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 2: went to bed early. I was up very early the

989
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 2: day before we had our sister in law, Laurie was

990
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 2: in town and she left at five in the morning

991
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 2: to catch a flight to Nashville. What do you do?

992
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,959
Speaker 2: What do you do as a guest when somebody's getting

993
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:57,880
Speaker 2: up at that early to catch a flight. I like

994
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 2: to see them out. I like to get up, say,

995
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 2: you know, give them a hug, make sure they get

996
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,840
Speaker 2: their luggage in the car. I would I would have

997
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:06,880
Speaker 2: normally given a ride to the airport, but I feel

998
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 2: like that's that's a little much at five o'clock in

999
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 2: the morning. But I got up and then I was up,

1000
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 2: so I was up anyway. My point is I went

1001
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,439
Speaker 2: to bed pretty early last night. That's nice.

1002
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 3: We watched episode one, season two, The Gilded AGEO. Wow,

1003
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,080

00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:31,160

00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:50,879

Speaker 2: would you do or what have you done?

1024
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,520
Speaker 3: I would set that coffee and good night the night before, okay,

1025
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 3: especially especially if it was more.

1026
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:21,439
Speaker 2: So Nora's guests parents left. I gave him the hug

1027
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:22,280
Speaker 2: the night before.

1028
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 3: Great to see y'all have a safe drive tomorrow morning,

1029
00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 3: so that you didn't see them in the morning.

1030
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right, Okay. I did regret not seeing

1031
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 2: jan I'll be honest with you. See, I mean it's

1032
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 2: a nice feel like for the person leaving their house too,

1033
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 2: So then there's like, oh, you didn't have to get up,

1034
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,400
Speaker 2: and I'm getting up anyway.

1035
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: You know the problem is like you're sort of like,

1036
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta brush your teeth. You don't want

1037
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:47,840
Speaker 1: to be like breathing morning breath in their face. You know.

1038
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 2: Then it's like Nora went back to bed.

1039
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:51,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I you stayed up.

1040
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 2: I stayed up. Yeah I can't. I can't. I struggle

1041
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 2: with that. Yeah, I mean I guess I probably, but

1042
00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,799
Speaker 2: I like to have that coffee almost like instantaneously when

1043
00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:01,920
Speaker 2: I up to so once that's you know, crank it

1044
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:05,360
Speaker 2: through my syst you know, I'm up. I'm up baby. Okay, Anyway,

1045
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 2: we got tweeted night here.

1046
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, here's the real tweet of the night comes to

1047
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 3: us from a mere Blumenfeld who tweeted, what's the best

1048
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:15,480
Speaker 3: movie You've never seen? You'll see a lot of what

1049
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 3: the best movie you've ever seen? But he throws an

1050
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 3: n in there, what's the best movie you've never seen?

1051
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 2: You got a good one, skates. Well, yeah, would just

1052
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,719
Speaker 2: like to say I think a mere Bloominfeld right now

1053
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,760
Speaker 2: with Jake and Emir, they're doing a weird twitter bit okay,

1054
00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 2: like an ex bit, something about like tweeting things out

1055
00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 2: to see if they can get engagement to gage. So

1056
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,399
Speaker 2: I think that's maybe what's happening here. I know he's

1057
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 2: done it before. I assume this tweet also falls in

1058
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:40,319
Speaker 2: that category. But it's a great question. Yeah, so the

1059
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 2: best movie I've never seen? There are some classics that

1060
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 2: I haven't seen. Citizen Kane, say, from the forties, Casablanca

1061
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 2: from the forties, Lawrence of Arabia from the sixties. I

1062
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 2: told you guys the other day. Now I know, I

1063
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:56,719
Speaker 2: don't think it's on the same level as those. I've

1064
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 2: never seen a Christmas Story.

1065
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 1: That's that's a good I've never seen it for a

1066
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 1: guy who loves traditional television. Is just crazy to me.

1067
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 2: That's a weird one. But I have two really good

1068
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 2: ones I think that I think are really good movies.

1069
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 2: That it's that that are actually about things that I

1070
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:18,320
Speaker 2: generally like. That I haven't seen The Sting from nineteen

1071
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:23,160

Speaker 3: No way, Curtis Hansen.

1095
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 2: My badis so the sting in La Confidential. If we

1096
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:32,399
Speaker 2: remove like the super classics that are just old. Yeah,

1097
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,640

Speaker 2: Grant, that's great. I mean, probably it is.

1101
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 1: It's like three hours long though, But and they these

1102
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 1: movies have such a slow burn on them as well. Right,

1103
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 1: the pacing is dif different, so you gotta strap in

1104
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:56,799
Speaker 1: for like, all right, put your phone away and just

1105
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: you gotta sort of yeah.

1106
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,319
Speaker 2: Okay, So the sting in La Confidential, people seem to

1107
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,080
Speaker 2: like these two picks. I've never seen these, all right,

1112
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:18,560

Speaker 2: in La Company. I haven't seen it since I was

1118
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 2: also sort of fun and funny. I remember being a

1119
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:39,200

1177
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 1: till the end commercials out.

1178
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:02,280

Speaker 2: the whole marathon watch Man. That was.

1182
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,120
Speaker 1: That was a lot that was unnecessarily but.

1183
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 2: It did feel good to be like all these references,

1184
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 2: all these characters, all the storylines. Okay, now I understand

1185
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:22,439
Speaker 2: what people are talking about.

1186
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:23,120
Speaker 3: Uh.

1187
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 2: Still a lot of it was, you know, not for me,

1188
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 2: especially the well you know, not the original like four

1189
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:30,920
Speaker 2: or five, six now in whatever the series, but the

1190
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:37,360
Speaker 2: other ones. Jar jar binks big, Yeah, that was did

1191
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 2: I was like, I think Nora was gone and I wasn't.

1192
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 2: I was sick or something. It was a classically let's

1193
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 2: do this, Yeah we have Fast.

1194

00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,440
Speaker 2: we did all the Fast and Furious movies. Me for

1198
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 2: the first time, I mean like I.

1199
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 3: Think people said Jurassic Park, like I remember, I've seen

1200
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 3: for sure the first three, and then there was evidence

1201
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,680
Speaker 3: that I watched one of the new ones because like

1202
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 3: it kept showing up like on our streaming, it was

1203
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 3: like watched. I was like, I never watched Jurassic World,

1204
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,760

Speaker 3: the sequels to the new one.

1206
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, same, Okay, we could do that. That could be

1207
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 2: a summer series months.

1208
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:24,439
Speaker 1: Harry Potter want to think I've seen every all of them? Really,

1209
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:25,160
Speaker 1: I don't think so.

1210
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 2: I bet I had Nora. That's a Nora is a

1211
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 2: huge Harry Potter fan. I've seen. I've seen a majority

1212
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 2: of every movie for sure. What do you want to

1213
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 2: you want to go Lord of the Rings with Mattio?

1214
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:38,400
Speaker 2: He can't keep track of what happens in those movies.

1215
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 1: That would be good for our brand?

1216
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:48,760
Speaker 2: Good brand? What about Quentin Tarantino movies? I haven't seen that.

1217
