So just 44 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: being able to wiggle and get to the spots for 45 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 2: the smaller one, and then being able to use your 46 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: strength and skills to get wherever you want to get 47 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: to your spots for the for the bigger one. 48 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: Are your are your twins? Having that boozer. 49 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 2: One is much better noble one. Bigger, Yeah, not as big, 50 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: not not as big a difference by any mean, they're 51 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 2: probably maybe or twelve pounds different than maybe an inch 52 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 2: in height. I know they play with five. Oh yeah, 53 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: that's that's a must. That's that in shooting we're already 54 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: instilled in. 55 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: So let me throw this gym at you, bro that 56 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: you don't really that you don't really hear a bunch 57 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: of coaches teach you don't hear a bunch of some 58 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: of the intangibles to go in and teach you man, 59 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: you know what you know it's not teached when you 60 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: when you teach kids. 61 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: Composure, Yeah, being able to hand, Well, that's one thing 62 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 2: I think one is, no matter what he's good, one 63 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: is he goes through the flow. If he's emotion and ship, 64 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: he's way up here. And if he's missing shit, he's 65 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: way down here. So that's one thing I've been working 66 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: on with. The one that hurt himself was steady steady, 67 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: Joe Johnson, steady Eddie. They can't I should never be 68 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 2: able to look at your face and tell how the 69 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: game is going. For just being able to that. And 70 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: then I think of too. Another thing that's not taught 71 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: that this generation misses because they don't play pick up 72 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: in that kind of shit. 73 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: It just that ship play. Are you gonna go outside 74 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: and busting niggass? What's going on? 75 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: They don't play off the ball. If they don't have 76 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: the ball in the hands, they don't know what to do. 77 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: They standing.

We had all 173 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: these different events, card and we had all these different personalities. 174 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: Paul Piers, all these mother who could be the man 175 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: are used to being the man. So at some point 176 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: Vince would do something I'm the man type shit, Paul Pierce, 177 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: would you know? And that's what I was looking for. 178 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: I didn't see no one insert their dominance man that 179 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: and which leads me to keep going and saying. When 180 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: I was watching some of the collegiate games ninety five, 181 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: if you go through who came out of ninety five, 182 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: you'll see charge in the Vince car. You see some 183 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: real names. Not all of them came out at ninety five, 184 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: though some came out in ninety six, some came out 185 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: in ninety seven, and Vince car awaited ninety nine. You know, 186 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's really your journey, yep, 187 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: it's really how you going about into what messes. Not 188 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: to cut you off with messes. 189 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: A lot of kids up as they think they need 190 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: to get there quickly, and then they wash out and 191 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: instead of it may take you, your journey is different. 192 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: It may take you three years. It's okay. It may 193 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 2: take you four years. That's okay. But I just think 194 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 2: there's such a hurry up and get there, and then 195 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 2: when you get there, the whole league is a lot 196 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: younger now, so you're thrown in the fire and you're 197 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 2: not ready, then you're gone. You used to be able 198 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: to sit and develop for a couple of years. Now 199 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: some guys got to sit back and watch and get 200 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: beat up in practice and learn and do your rookie 201 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: duties and get the extra working and then when it 202 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: was your time, it was time to go. But now 203 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,839 Speaker 2: the league is so young that these young players want 204 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 2: to hurry up and get it, then get thrown in 205 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 2: the fire and then they're not ready, then they wash out. 206 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: Then you find super talented kids that are g league 207 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 2: got for their life, or have to go play overseas 208 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 2: instead of okay, maybe that's gonna take me two or 209 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: three years in college until I'm ready for that, and 210 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: that's okay. I'm gonna go in there at twenty one 211 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 2: ready to play instead of going in there at eighteen 212 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: and not ready to play, and then they're gonna judge 213 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: me on that. Then they're gonna get me out of it. 214 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: You see what college doing. 215 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 2: Huh? 216 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: And Matt Barnes, you got two more years eligibility?

I never sprained 248 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: my ankle after my third year anchor rotations. As your kids, 249 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: if I could ever give them a gym like I 250 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: seen that, Uncle Bean, give them a gym, Uncle Ticket 251 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: we're giving push up, sit ups, peanut butter and jelly 252 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: before you go to bed.

Ten 256 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: very easy one way, ten the other way. When it 257 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: starts to feel like this ain't shit, that means your 258 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: ankle is stronger. And if you look at ray Allen 259 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: stack House, they got super calves, right, And if you 260 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: know anything about those two, when they push off and go, 261 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: they push off the show. So if I can ever 262 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: give your voice a gym, especially when that mess his 263 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: ankle up, tell them to live on anchor rotations in 264 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: just ten before they go to bed and when they 265 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: wake up in the morning. If they can do that, 266 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: that means they are locked in. 267 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 2: And I got them with a new train to do. 268 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: That's real big on that hip hip flexion. 269 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: Stretching is another thing.

I mean, and I say this mentally, 303 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: I say this physically and how your game translates. First off, 304 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: you got to be an ultimate professional in the NBA. BRO. 305 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: I know, game optics and and and and load management 306 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: are options, but those are things that I think you 307 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: got to actually prevy up to. You gotta build up 308 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: to that, you gotta earn those things. Those things are 309 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: just not like sitting there, you know what I mean, 310 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: Like Jackson Hayes can come in and say, hey, I'm 311 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: load manager. You know you know what I'm saying, Like, 312 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: that's not that's for people who actually carry the load, 313 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: you understand. So with all of that point, I'm watching 314 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm watching college man with with Peterson in Kansas, and 315 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: some of these players already tap into a privilege that 316 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if they've earned. I know they probably 317 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: earned it on the on the high school level. I 318 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: don't know if they've earned it on this level. So 319 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: I'm just watching all of it. And then again we 320 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: go back to the bag. I'm watching physical play going 321 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: to some of these kids, and it's affecting their their 322 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: their overall and ce DOUAA tournament's probably one of the 323 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: most physical when it comes to basketball. We don't ever 324 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 1: talk about, right, So I like to see that style 325 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: and how those kids actually handle it, handle it and 326 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: the pressure. There's a lot of pressure in the watching. 327 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: So I'm from from those standpoints. 328 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 3: Now. 329 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: I'm not expecting everybody to be like today and finish money, 330 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: but I don't know if yeah, I don't know if 331 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: you can go in the league with that right there, 332 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: and actually, you know, you may have to develop another 333 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: year in the league. You hear me and some of 334 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: these players I think gonna be better NBA players.

I can use a couple, but I 337 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: just want to get your assessment on what you're seeing 338 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: from those young boys. If you're seeing some of the 339 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,479 Speaker 1: same things that I'm seeing. 340 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 2: I agree. I think the tournament is that next level. 341 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: It's the closest bridge between college and the pros. And 342 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: you see kids like Cam Boozer, who had a very 343 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 2: solid season, but when he went up against guys his 344 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: length and his athleticism, he was getting blocked more than 345 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 2: I had seen in the regular season. But then you 346 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 2: look at someone like Aka and I feel like he's ready. 347 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 2: I feel like he's ready to go. I feel like 348 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: aj the boyfriend BYU. I feel like he's ready to go. 349 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: I want to say that Peterson is ready to go. 350 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: But to your point, there was too much of this 351 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 2: during the season, whether it was cramps or whether it 352 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 2: was you know, management or I don't know what it was. 353 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: But to me, that has If I'm a GM, if 354 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: you're doing this in thirty games, what are you gonna 355 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: do in eighty two games? And this is not a 356 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 2: knock again because we don't really know they're talking about 357 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: he had full body cramps and all that kind of stuff. 358 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 2: But at the same time, ticket these kids are getting 359 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: over five million dollars a year, so you can get 360 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: whatever kind of supplements on the side, nutrition, ivs, whatever 361 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 2: it takes to kind of So again I think to 362 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 2: your point, like load management is for people who carry the. 363 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: Load in the league, and that's a great way if 364 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: you're carrying the load. 365 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 2: We understand the management, but you have that's something you 366 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 2: have to earn and get to. So I think it's 367 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 2: a very to I really like Kayler Wilson, the kid 368 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 2: in North Carolina that hurt his hand and didn't get 369 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: to play in the tournament. So I think that this 370 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 2: is a talented, very talented class. But also think coming 371 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 2: into it, the league is different. They're not running into 372 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: motherfuckers like you and the bigger Yeah, these guys that 373 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: are big and can move and are strong and have 374 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: a whole it's just a different kind of game. So 375 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 2: I mean, well, obviously we wish all of them the best, 376 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: but it's just gonna have to. 377 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: Wait and see. You think they're all gonna go in. 378 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: I think so. 379 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: You think so? You think everybody goes in? I think so. 380 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: Bro. 381 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: You know, if if all these kids go in, man 382 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: they got poor management. Some of these kids got poor 383 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: management around them, real shit, and they know and they 384 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: know they need to probably go back to school. 385 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: And you think about it. 386 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm saying this perspective. Don't know nobody's financial situation. 387 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: Nobody's living situation. I know, if you're in college right now, 388 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: you make it a real break. 389 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: Real fun. Could be taking a cut to go to 390 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 2: the league. 391 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: But that's another thing. If you got a change to made, 392 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: you know, damn there double what you just got in. 393 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 2: They're paying you just to get better, to develop. So 394 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 2: to me, it's kind of love. You missed college. But 395 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 2: I fucking love if they would have paid me, I 396 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 2: would have stayed eight years in college and they would 397 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: have just capt paid. Maybe told me I would have 398 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 2: loved to stay there, big baby said. 399 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: If they would have gave me an option to play 400 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: twenty years in college and paid me, I would have. 401 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: I said, shout out the baby, he just got. 402 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 1: He got phone, shout the big shout the phone. Welcome home, bro, 403 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: gonna leak up with him. Yeah, but I heard that. Man, 404 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: I didn't even know what that was. But let me 405 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: keep my eyes on that real she man, let's get 406 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: into it. 407 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 3: Name, Yes, sir, certifier, certified, certified, certain, faster, certified, certain. 408 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: It's a green shot. Yeah, we built differently. You ain't 409 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: watching the games like I'm watching it. You know you'm outside. 410 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 2: We're alive. 411 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: This is when you stopped the production that we go back. 412 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 2: And we want. 413 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 4: One thing about the NL bring up is going pro. 414 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: And you're a lottery pick. Yeah, you're seed, you know, 415 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 4: around thirteen to fifteen million a year if you're one 416 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 4: of those top picks. So I would say, curious what 417 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 4: you think about the top picks going one and done 418 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 4: versus Yeah, some of the guys is lower in the draft. 419 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: I think like an Elijah Renas is on it, and 420 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 2: this is my little nephew. I think he's kind of 421 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 2: on the bridge. And you said something early, I think 422 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 2: he's going to be a better pro than a college 423 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: player because it's much more spacing. But he, you know, 424 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 2: he came back after that knee, played ten fifteen games 425 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: and kind of showed his ship. Shooting percentage weren't where 426 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 2: they could have. And we had my it was my 427 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 2: birthday actually at the crib, and he came and he 428 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 2: took me outside and wanted to talk and asked what 429 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 2: I thought, and I just like, I feel like, if 430 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 2: you go back another year, you have a potential to 431 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 2: lead college back someone scoring, and you have a potential 432 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: to be a top five pick. If you come out 433 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 2: now and you have a good draft process. You can 434 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: catch that backside of the lottery, but you're for sure 435 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: a first round pick. So it's really up to you 436 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 2: on what you want to do. And it's just like 437 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 2: I want to lead to college and scoring. I'm like, 438 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 2: go back to school, bro, go back to school. You 439 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 2: got a talented freshman class coming into that ce, go 440 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 2: back to school. But it's just like I think to 441 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 2: your point that if you're a lock of that lottery, 442 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 2: that's life changing off the rip. But if you're not lottery, 443 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 2: college doesn't look that bad. And I don't understand what 444 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: the rush to get to the pros is. Like I 445 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 2: feel like now more than ever, you have to be 446 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: ready when you get there because it's such a young league. 447 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,959 Speaker 2: They don't have the old vets that you can sit 448 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 2: and learn behind. Now now you're thrown in the fire 449 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 2: or you're thrown in the G League. And to me, 450 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 2: college is much better than the G League. That part, 451 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: So that part, and guess what, you get to build 452 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 2: your name in college. And when you build your name 453 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: and you know, made money for the machine, you can 454 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 2: come back to the machine. 455 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: You build your brand too. 456 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 2: Look, you look on the women's side, and this is 457 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 2: kind of off top of Kaitlyn Clark and Andrew Reese 458 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 2: had a brand that was bigger than the entire W respectfully. 459 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: Before they went into the NBA. 460 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 2: So college is how you build your game and your 461 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: brand and then your lifelong connections with that. 462 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: With that college, Listen, those young ladies can go back 463 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: to those any respectable you know, I'm telling you made 464 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: When you're not put butts in the seats for for 465 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: some congraminus, man, you're not made money for the machine, 466 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: you can always go through that door lifelong. 467 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 4: Oh, you guys just brought it up. So I'm going 468 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 4: to bring it up to WNBA. We got some momentum 469 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 4: here with kind of they reached an agreement the Player 470 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 4: Association the WNBA. So now players can receive up to 471 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 4: twenty percent of the basketball related income, whereas before it 472 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 4: was less than ten percent the last deal. And now 473 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 4: there's super Max where you can make one point four 474 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 4: million dollars. There's just more money that the players are 475 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 4: going to be. 476 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: Able to do regulations. 477 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 4: So I'm just curious your thoughts. And they're expanding to 478 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 4: two more teams this upcoming year. 479 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: Where Houston came back that that was a travesty not 480 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: to have Houston where you understand the WNBA and they 481 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: set it off Commas where everything there's the first show 482 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: of the WNBA, you know what I'm saying. 483 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 4: And so the Fertida's brought them back. That was a 484 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 4: record sale for WNBA. Team you needed was the Connecticut Sun. 485 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 2: Okay, who's the other? 486 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 4: So the expansion teams this upcoming year will be Portland 487 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 4: is gonna have a team in the Toronto who's gonna 488 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 4: have a team in Messiah. Jerry is going to be 489 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 4: a part of that that front office group. 490 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: Toronto having a w NBA team, that'd be dope. Don't 491 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: do something in a summer. 492 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 4: Right, So then there's two more. There's two more coming 493 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 4: in subsequent years. So by like twenty thirty, the league 494 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 4: was going to. 495 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 2: Have I just think and let me know what you 496 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 2: think on this. I think expanding too much, too fast 497 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 2: can water you down too much. You think, so, well, 498 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 2: it's just to me, there's there's the women's game is 499 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 2: growing leaps and bounds. But when you expand your spreading 500 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 2: out the existing talent you have, and then you're almost 501 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 2: forced to fill spots with people that may not have 502 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 2: made the league because you need bodies for these new teams. 503 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 1: Actually think we got an abundance of talent. I think, 504 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: I just I think look at look at the Aces. 505 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: We can go through the Aces team. You ever go 506 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: through a team like okay, see some of them, guys 507 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: can actually be starters and maybe team no question, a 508 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: whole nother thing on another team. That's what I'm saying. 509 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 1: When you can do that, Actually, I actually think that's 510 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: where the league is going. When you look at the 511 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: Lakers and they had god damn eleven Bob mcado was 512 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You remember that, that's where 513 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 1: you know the team is. I mean the league is healthy. 514 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 3: Uh. 515 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: I actually think we're going to get an abundance of 516 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: talent that we're not. We don't We're not going to 517 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: see you remember you remember when the Amen Twins came 518 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: and nobody told them coming and today was here. He 519 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: was like, holy ship right here. That type thing. We're 520 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: gonna have more of those happened in our in our lifetime, 521 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be right here. Look at all the 522 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: abundance of talent that that's coming out of two year colleges. Juco. 523 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: How there are prize in college and now you're getting 524 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: the Expirits player. Well, no one's talking about the euro player. 525 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: This is another thing I want to bring up. Man, 526 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: We're about to have a first Euro n C double 527 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: A the Illinois. The Illinois fighting line. Now they are 528 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: the first euro college team and they got a chance 529 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 1: to win it. Lord, they're gonna We're gonna see that. 530 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: Guess what, It's cheaper. These kids are more disciplined and 531 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: they listen and they have probably a little better passion. 532 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: Not saying they better players than none of that higher IQ. 533 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: They start earlier. They're not, you know, not saying they 534 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: don't have so many same distractions because those kids want 535 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: to be like us, you feel me. So I'm seeing 536 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,160 Speaker 1: a different narrative being created in college that no one's 537 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: talking about. And it's the international player Illinois. What's the 538 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: first team to make the investment on the international player 539 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: and have a style like that? Bro's bro, I don't, 540 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't. I'm gonna se him, keep it real.

It's about three four other guys on that 543 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 1: and like they are balling. I love it. Shout out 544 00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: to Illinois. Man, they got a real chance. Man uh 545 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: Man then has been. 546 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 2: Their favorite too, right, not to cut you off, I 547 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 2: think Illinois is is Illinois? 548 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: Uh, let me double check. 549 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 4: I know Michigan was favored when we talked about it yesterday. 550 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: Michigan on the steam roll right now, but Connecticut on 551 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: the heater right now. I mean, I love this. 552 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 4: This is a favorite against Yukon. Really and to your point, ticket, 553 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 4: they got five guys internationally, a couple guys from Croatia, 554 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 4: And I'm curious what you guys think, like is the 555 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 4: recruiting process going over the water is potentially more cost 556 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 4: effective than getting some of these US born players. 557 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm curiously if you as l A and Wimby was 558 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: available to go with. 559 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: I remember, back when I was actually in college, we 560 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: were in the fight for Tony Parker. 561 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: We were trying to get Tony Parker. That would have 562 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: been you know what I mean. 563 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: I remember them clearly talking about trying to get Tony Parker. 564 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 2: Obviously he chose to go to the league. But and again, 565 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 2: I never want to sound like an old hater or 566 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: but I just feel like American players have been given 567 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,719 Speaker 2: so much without actually their g from what we had 568 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: to earn. So to me, if I'm looking as a 569 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 2: college recruiter, you got to really be on your shit 570 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 2: as an American player with, like you said, understanding how 571 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 2: to be a pro, Understanding how to just carry yourself, 572 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: handy yourself, work hard, understand how to you know, build 573 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 2: character if you don't get what you want right off 574 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: the rip, because you know they have that over there 575 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 2: working with I think as a whole. As a whole, 576 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 2: the US is better, obviously, but these other players that 577 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 2: are coming over the water, that the handful that are 578 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 2: coming are really ready to play. They're ready to play 579 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 2: in college and they're ready to play in the pro. 580 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: So it's it's the game has changed. You said, build 581 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 2: professionally to be they're ready because you know, they don't 582 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 2: play junior high, high school. They play club. So you're 583 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 2: playing with grown ass men smoking cigarettes and drinking beers 584 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,479 Speaker 2: after the game when you ain't barely got some hair 585 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,119 Speaker 2: on your nuts, you. 586 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: Know what I mean. 587 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 2: So you're learning at an early age what it takes 588 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: to be in this grown man sport fourteen fifteen how 589 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 2: to chief a cigarette? 590 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 4: Do you think with what Illinois doing, this success they 591 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 4: have this will change kind of recruiting in the future. 592 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 4: For some of these US, I think. 593 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: It's just we play sports as a copycat game. 594 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 2: So whatever is working, people are gonna you know, for 595 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 2: everyone tried to build a Golden State roster for a 596 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 2: while and then Denver one and everyone started wanting to 597 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: go back to finding bit. You know, it's just like 598 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 2: whatever works, people are gonna try to copy instead of 599 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 2: figuring out what works for who you have. 600 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: Now, everybody want a Joker, And when Joker was killing 601 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: it seventy six, just thought, oh shit, we got to 602 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: be he can do the same thing. We're gonna put 603 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: you at the high post. Now you work big. Felt like, 604 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 1: I see, I see what you're saying. I say this. 605 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: So this, this right here is going to enter my 606 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: narrative of players coming back to colleges, because if you're 607 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: gonna have coming back to college, the G League overseas 608 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: and then the league and then you're gonna help me, 609 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna have abundance of talent. So some of this 610 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: talent ain't all gonna fall away and say that's why 611 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: we're looking at D two's and players at D three's 612 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: or these other colleges. You never heard of they got 613 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: some dope player. That's the abundance of time I'm talking about. 614 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: But to me, all this is gonna fall somewhere now. 615 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: I think if you're in college, I think the rule 616 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,920 Speaker 1: needs to go into play to think about if Matt 617 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: did four years, can I resign him? If he's willing 618 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: and wanting to come back to play for two three years? 619 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: Guess what that does to my to my program? Helps 620 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: to understand he can help with recruits. This is the 621 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: og that we need in college. This all helps the 622 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: development too of the young man getting ready to any 623 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: young lady getting ready to go off and be a professional. 624 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: On the flip side, does that take you out of 625 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 2: contention to go to the league then, because you got 626 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 2: to think the league is rarely that there was Dalton 627 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 2: Connect twenty four. The league is rarely taking guys that 628 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 2: old darling. 629 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: Dog Connect right now can go average probably fifteen nineteen 630 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: on the show with the Hornets. He can go right 631 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 1: there in Utah. 632 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 2: Know what I'm what I'm saying is if I if 633 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 2: that somewhat like playing past and I heard it and 634 00:27:59,080 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 2: it was last summer. 635 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 4: Connect was twenty three. 636 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: Just to Clari, Yeah, playing past twenty three twenty four 637 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 2: in college is pretty much guaranteeing you that you're not 638 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,239 Speaker 2: going to the league. They're not drafting guys that are. 639 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: Although it's working in college for the game for every 640 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 2: reason you just said. But I think once you get 641 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 2: past twenty three twenty four in college and you haven't 642 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: been able to make that jump or you don't you know, 643 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 2: there hasn't been any interest, I think you're almost taking 644 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 2: yourself out of the NBA conversation at least to be drafted. 645 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 1: There's you may be able to. 646 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: Take another route and come the back way around the league. 647 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: But I feel like, although I hate it that there's 648 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 2: twenty six and twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven, twenty 649 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 2: eight year old guys playing, those guys aren't the guys 650 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 2: that are going to make. 651 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: The jump to the league. 652 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 2: Because you feel like, you know, it's still potential, and 653 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: if I see you at twenty three twenty four and 654 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 2: you're still not ready, will you ever be ready? 655 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: That's who you are though, That's what my point. Yeah, 656 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: that opportunity is for those players, right because you guess what, 657 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: that guy is either gonna go to the G League 658 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: or some other league. So would you rather be in college, yeah, 659 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: or would you rather be in the G League or 660 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: these other That's that's really what I'm saying. 661 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 2: I also think I specially dolls to say, Matt, I 662 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 2: think there needs to be an age cap, whether that's 663 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 2: twenty three twenty four. I feel like twenty four will 664 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 2: leave you six years removed from high school and if 665 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 2: you haven't got to figure it out by man, I 666 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: think you need to make them up only because you're 667 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: clogging up the pipeline. Because if I'm if we're coaches, 668 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 2: our job is to win. So I'm going to take 669 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: an older player that has experience and strength over potential 670 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 2: most of the time, because you know those older guys 671 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: off the rip are going to be ready to go. 672 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 2: So I just think they're clogging up the pipeline for 673 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 2: the kids that need, not the one that does, but 674 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 2: the kids that may need those two or three years 675 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 2: to develop in college. Those spots are being taken by 676 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 2: these older players. 677 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: It's almost like I got an Eddie Jones to here, 678 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: but I got a Kobe Bryant sid, I got a 679 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: Bonafi Star right now, All Star already.

So let's look at 697 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 4: Friday's matchup. We have the Celtics at the Bucks. 698 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: Ooh, Celtics at the Bucks. 699 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 4: I want to look at Jalen Brown's points more or less? 700 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: Is he gonna play? They probably gotta play. They probably 701 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: gotta win out all these six games. 702 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 3: Eh. 703 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 4: The Knicks are somewhat close to two games. 704 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna say actually, I don't think he's gonna 705 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: play that much in this game. I'm gonna say less. 706 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: And then I think the Celtics actually gonna blow the 707 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: Bucks out. You know, Johannis, I know everybody's out here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 708 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say less. 709 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 4: Okay, Bucks have had a lot of double digit losses recently. 710 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 4: Yeah there, yeah, all right, So let's look at the 711 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 4: Hawks at the Nests. 712 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: I want to look at the Nest Brooklyn. 713 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 4: I want to look at Jalen Johnson points more or 714 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 4: less for Jalen Johnson. 715 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 1: Again, I think all these teams, Atlanta being one of them, 716 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: are getting ready for the playoffs, and Jalen Johnson average 717 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: what twenty five? Something like twenty three? Yeah, I want 718 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: to say more, but I see the Hawks blowing the 719 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: Nets out too. And this is at Brooklyn too, right, yes, sir, Yeah, 720 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say more because it's New York getting there. 721 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: Get a rhythm.

So yeah, I'm gonna say more 724 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: for Jalen. 725 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 4: And then lastly, let's add one more player. We have 726 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 4: the Raptors going into Memphis. 727 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 1: Oh, the Raptors going into Memphis. 728 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 4: Yes, sir, and the Raptors they need wins here. Uh 729 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 4: so let's look at brandon Ingram. Points more or less 730 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 4: for brandon Ingram in this game. 731 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: Product. 732 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, brandon Ingram's girl is from mephis uh Glorilla. Uh so, yeah, 733 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say more. I'm expecting more from Ingram in Memphis. 734 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: And yeah, I think Memphis is go ahead and I 735 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: think they're one two three, can coon in it already? Yeah, 736 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: they they've already started the plan. So yeah, yeah, give me, yeah, 737 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: give give me more, give me more from Ingram.

So 740 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: he's probably not gonna win m v P. Nobody. We 741 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: we really giving this justice. We just acting like every 742 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: nigga can do this. Man, shout to the dawn. Man, Hey, man, 743 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,479 Speaker 1: don I know how I go. When you're going through 744 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 1: shaw off court, you actually have the court to be 745 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: able to just espress yourself. Man, this run that Luca 746 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: is oh man, I think he was what thirteen fourteen games? 747 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: He had over thirty. I think a couple of those 748 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: being faty faty faulties. 749 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: What is he agent like about forty points eight and 750 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 2: seven over this third What are they what fifteen out 751 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 2: of seventeen or sixteen out of eighteen. 752 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 4: So just I'm just looking at their last sixteen games, 753 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 4: fourteen and two, and Luca. 754 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 2: I know you gotta la, you gotta laugh, Yeah, you 755 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: gotta laugh, Surd It's like some fucking video. 756 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 4: Thirty seven and a half points, eight rebounds, seven and 757 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 4: a half a saist, two steals a game. He's shooting 758 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 4: basically forty percent from three and forty nine from the floor. 759 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 4: And uh, as I said fourteen and two during that start. 760 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 2: I think, respectfully, this is the first time, because I 761 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 2: know we've said it a lot and heard it a 762 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: lot over the last two or three years, that Bron 763 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: is kind of surrendered the keys and accepted that third role. 764 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 2: And I think this is where I feel like, this 765 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 2: is why the Lakers are better because to me, Bron 766 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 2: being in that seventeen point triple double range every night 767 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: and allowing Luca to be Luca and ar to bear 768 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 2: makes that team so much more potent. Instead of Lebron 769 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 2: having the score in the twenties. He can still do it. 770 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 2: Don't give her. He could definitely still do it, but 771 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 2: I think he found a way where he can preserve. 772 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 2: Let these two young boys go out there and do 773 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 2: the heavy lifting, and I'm still going to pop up 774 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 2: in the playoffs and give you thirty a few times 775 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 2: through this run. 776 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 4: So Matt, to your point, it just looked this up. 777 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 4: Lebron James's usage rate the lowest ever in his career 778 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 4: this season, and I think a lot of that is success. 779 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that is finally. 780 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: I think it's two parts, but I think it's him 781 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 2: finally being like, I'm listening to my body and I 782 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,879 Speaker 2: know I need these young boys to pull the sled, 783 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 2: and when it's time for me in the playoffs, I'm 784 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 2: still gonna splash up and give you maybe even forty ball. 785 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,479 Speaker 2: I mean, for sure give you a couple of thirty balls. 786 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 2: But I feel like if he's in that seventeen eighteen, 787 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: nineteen point range with ten assists and eight rebounds, it's 788 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 2: just like, to me, that's the most effective Lebron for 789 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 2: ar and Luca. 790 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: To run their run their race. Listen, man, this man 791 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 1: know what he's doing. They take, they take that. He 792 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: took his foot off the gas and this has been 793 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: the play now when he get in the playoffs. This 794 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: is what we're not talking about. First off, I want 795 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: to shout out Shaye Shaye Butter, because what Shaye Butter 796 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: did four years averaging third broo, and he's hitting midies. 797 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: It's not like because he put that midi in his game. 798 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 1: He got a face up three that he'll just straight 799 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: up head shot you right there, if you, if you, 800 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 1: if you get caught in the days and it's a 801 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 1: two and it's two steps, he'll shoot that ship. And 802 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: he shot that shit at a high clip. Then he 803 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: put the mini in his game. I'm saying all that 804 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 1: to say that shot to him because four years straight 805 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 1: up averaging thirty is hard, especially when your top on 806 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 1: the board and you're circled every night. That's just that's 807 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 1: the person to stop you understand. 808 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 4: No One says Jordan. 809 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: I know we talked about shout to Shade doing that. Man, 810 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: shout to the Joker too, bro. Nobody's talking about what 811 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: Joker's doing. Jokers damn near averaging the triple double in 812 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: front of anybody. And to me, no one's talking about never, 813 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: which is even more scarier because they are like dark Horse. 814 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 2: And I think they're okay with it though, because they've 815 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 2: won it and they know what it takes. They don't 816 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 2: they don't have to be at the top. They know 817 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 2: at some point you're gonna have to go on the 818 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 2: road and win anyway. And I think that Murray's having 819 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 2: a better season and they're scary. One person I want 820 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 2: to point out, and I don't know he obviously he's 821 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 2: in the conversation, but it's Wemby at twenty four and eleven, 822 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 2: but also the defensive impact. You can talk about SGA, 823 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 2: you could talk about Luca incredible, but they don't have 824 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 2: the defensive impact. I think Wemby will be the next 825 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 2: guy that did what Jordan did and what eighty eight 826 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 2: orty nine. 827 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 4: It's eighty eight season. He was Defensive Player of the Year. 828 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 2: Layer of the Year and MVP, and I know you 829 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 2: love it because he brought the energy back to the 830 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 2: All Star Game too. I feel like, I although it 831 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 2: was one taste, let's see if it carries over, but 832 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: he put that energy. I felt that that made these 833 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 2: guys be like, we got to keep up with this motherfucker. 834 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: We put a joke into the game right now. He's 835 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: making everybody raise their level of play. Yep, Like, if 836 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: you're gonna beat the Spurs, Bro, no, be's gonna have 837 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: to be at a heightened level. They're gonna have to 838 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 1: play at another level, you know what I'm saying, And 839 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to be the best versions of them 840 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 1: getting to the Lakers, and no one who finish this 841 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: point we can go to the next. I actually see 842 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: we're not talking about the intangibles that Lebron James comes with. 843 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: So I've been a testament to this. I've seen the 844 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: man turn it on and take it to another level. 845 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: I've seen him take over the game. I've seen him 846 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 1: control the game. And that's what I'm banking over. And 847 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: that's what I don't see in the narrative. And when 848 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: we get to the playoffs, guess who' gonna be able 849 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 1: to get to the whole and out of five drives 850 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 1: get three calls? You understand? Fourth quarter? You know what 851 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,879 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like when Lord hit the button, Yeah, I'm 852 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,520 Speaker 1: excited when Bron hit the button. Bro, you gotta really 853 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: be on that ship. Bro, If you ain't on the 854 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: other side, preparing the version of your button and being 855 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: able to like cattle balance now, bro bro. 856 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 2: So they're not thinking about this ticket. You're putting your 857 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 2: best to defenders on Luca in aar. 858 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Broun's nine 859 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: to ten times gonna be better than your third player, right, 860 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 1: or he should be right. He should be right, he 861 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: should Summer team's gonna happen, y'all. Listen to me, y'all. 862 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna get in here. And Austin Reeves always struggles 863 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 1: when teams double team Hill, well, he double teams. When 864 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 1: he's double team he doesn't get out of his head 865 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: quick enough. He's not more patient to get it back. 866 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: But then you got two game change yourself on the 867 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: same team. I actually feel like, listen, if if Luca 868 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: would have had this type of ain't changing with him 869 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: in Dallas when they went to the fights with any 870 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 1: they had a different look. That's all I'm gonna say. 871 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: But you gotta think the swing swing now is going 872 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 2: to bron swing. 873 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 1: You take that bat like Spaceline drive. Yeah, I like 874 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 1: them like as they're trending high, Yo, they ain't nobody 875 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: really talk about them, but they are climbing. They beat 876 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 1: some teams they should have beat. 877 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 2: But and you know, going into the playoffs, that is 878 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 2: getting hot at the right time. That's what they're being 879 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:25,359 Speaker 2: hot at the right time. 880 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,360 Speaker 4: That's the top ten in defense and offense. And defense 881 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 4: was a struggle that they had in the man. 882 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 2: Shout out to JJ because again being in that coaching 883 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: seed is probably the hottest seat in professional sports, and 884 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 2: I think he took a lot of heat, but understanding 885 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 2: how this it was going to take time to manage 886 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 2: these personalities and egos. But I know the type of player, 887 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: the type of man in the and the sicko he 888 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 2: is on detail and game plan and strategy, and I 889 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 2: think it's finally coming. Obviously, you want to give all 890 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,040 Speaker 2: the credit to the players that because they're out there working, 891 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 2: but I think JJ behind the scenes has finally kind 892 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 2: of got that lock a room understanding the vision and 893 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 2: and again the hottest team in. 894 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: The NBA, him and Bro had to get some understanding, 895 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: right Quier. 896 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 2: It's gonna take some time. 897 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 1: You know, you dance and you know what I'm saying. 898 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 2: And also too because and respectfully, j J was a 899 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 2: great shooter, but JJ was a role player, so I 900 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: think he took him a little bit of time to 901 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 2: earn the respect that he deserved. But it took a 902 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 2: little time to earn it, and I think he's earned it. 903 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:25,360 Speaker 2: And I think that you know, he's He's had his 904 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,399 Speaker 2: ups and downs with Luca. Publicly, we've seen it. I'm 905 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 2: sure there's been some behind the scenes up and down 906 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 2: with Bron. I'm not really sure how ar is is, 907 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: if he's a strong personality or not, but I know 908 00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 2: there's been some probably some some some struggles, and there 909 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: should be some struggles as you're continuing to grow. But 910 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: I feel like now they're on one accord and you 911 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:44,399 Speaker 2: can see it in their play. 912 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 1: Think about those players that you just named, type of coach, 913 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 1: you gotta beat it. Tell Bron, hey, hey, you got 914 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:53,920 Speaker 1: to get back on defense. Hey man, what the fuck 915 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: are you doing right here? 916 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 2: And he will and like I said, I think he 917 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 2: probably wasn't received as well first, but he don't give 918 00:40:59,520 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 2: a fuck. 919 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: He don't. But it's the way you gotta you know, 920 00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: how you got to present that you can't. You need 921 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,800 Speaker 1: these guys, bro see Luca to be the best lucas 922 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: you don't want Lucas shutting you down, waiting you off 923 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: when you wait, when you call something, bro, Nah, it 924 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: helps that when you and your best player are on 925 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 1: the same accord, Bro, it looks totally different. 926 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:19,760 Speaker 2: It's a different flow. 927 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 4: Despite the noise and everything's happen with the Lakers. JJ 928 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 4: back to back fifty win seasons for him. 929 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, fucking Luca and Bron, I don't want to 930 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: hear that shit. Lucy and Bron. We look back on 931 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,839 Speaker 1: this ship.

Ain't nobody put the 957 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:40,440 Speaker 1: finger in. 958 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 4: Ain't nobody lay twenty nine minutes a night. 959 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 1: I see everybody keeping cooling. So what I'm saying, I 960 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: don't see. I see him as a bigger impression on 961 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: the league than the league actually on him. He's dominating 962 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: the league to where gods don't want to foul him, 963 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: Like you feel, we feel what I'm saying, Like I'm 964 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: looking at like at one point, do you show him down? Matt? 965 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: You playing defense? You gotta you know, give a office 966 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: have got different things. I don't see. 967 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 2: None of this is so long he'll give you these 968 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 2: weird like angle dunks that he'll take off from a 969 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 2: step inside the three point line of somehow dunk it 970 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 2: on you or throw it on the And you mentioned 971 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 2: three or four blocks, but he's also given me he's 972 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 2: changing four or five shots as well, Like you can't 973 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 2: go in there and float. That motherfucker's gonna grab the 974 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 2: you know. I mean, so he's alternating, altering shots, blocking shots. 975 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 2: He can keep a guard in front of him for 976 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 2: two dribbles. I mean, it's it's tough. I don't know 977 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 2: you've seen this man, I think now we have not. 978 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 1: There's no question they got a clip when he was 979 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: on one side it bro tod he had that city, 980 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: he got Lord he go go gadget. You know what 981 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: I'm saying. He is a real go go gadget. You 982 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 1: feel me? 983 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 2: Who's your MVP pick? 984 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: Then? Is it him a shitt? I say this man, 985 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 1: he's the most valuable to his team. I think that 986 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: if you take Shay off of Okay, see okay, so 987 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 1: he can still be not as good but be still competitive. 988 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 1: You take wind and be off san Antonio Rap, it's 989 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,800 Speaker 1: not the same. Yeah, So man, if I have to 990 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: give it to somebody. It's hard to go get Shape 991 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 1: butter though, because Shae Butner got the best team in 992 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: the league. Yeah, I have to go Shavee butter Man. 993 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:12,840 Speaker 1: I agree. 994 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,359 Speaker 2: I think Winby has arrived a little early. I don't 995 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 2: think at twenty two. No, I don't think he at 996 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 2: twenty two. I don't think people expected this kind of performance, 997 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 2: which which is amazing. And to your point, the defensive 998 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 2: side is his. He's going to continue to get better 999 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 2: on the offensive side. 1000 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: That's scared. 1001 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: But with that said, I think it's Shay, you know, 1002 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 2: with the with the with consecutive twenty point games, over 1003 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 2: thirty points and shooting fifty five percent from the field, 1004 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 2: defending champs and your team is number one again. 1005 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 1: Bro. You know you posted to you posted to like 1006 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 1: he not won it, Bro, acting like he was shit still, 1007 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: Bro got his foot on the gas, shot the shape 1008 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:53,800 Speaker 1: butter Man, you're getting it, broil shit bro walking ball anyway, 1009 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. 1010 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:56,799 Speaker 4: See you guys both got Shay. But let's look at 1011 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:58,359 Speaker 4: kind of the coach of the year, because I feel 1012 00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 4: like there's a lot of coaches. 1013 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 1: I like Jay. I like Jayalen Brown too. 1014 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: Man. 1015 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 1: I ain't gonna. I can't. Jalen Brown. This is I've 1016 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: never seen this version of him. He's he was my 1017 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: second women's my It's hard to say weinby second thing 1018 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 1: if you get forty one nineteen three, But I can't 1019 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 1: even go yourself. But those those four with Luca and 1020 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:17,760 Speaker 1: all that man was. It was a hard decision. 1021 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 2: If you ever think that losing you can find a 1022 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 2: benefit of losing your best player, because I think we 1023 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 2: I think Tatum is the best player on Boston. But 1024 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 2: I think him being down this whole year is given 1025 00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 2: Jalen Brown the confidence to show he can lead a team. 1026 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 2: It's given guys like Pritchard and the other role players 1027 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 2: a chance to step up. White and then there was 1028 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 2: no ego when he came back. He just coming off. 1029 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 2: Shout out Ja Tatum, Eastern Conference Player of the Week. 1030 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 1: He came back. 1031 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 2: So I think, to your point, Missoula. 1032 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: Is in the running. I think the coach of the 1033 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 1: Spurs is in the running. Yeah, I think big Johnson. 1034 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: I think bigger staffh bigger Staff is in the running. 1035 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 2: In Detroit. You gotta obviously look at the ok SE 1036 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 2: coach as well. I mean, they've been at the top 1037 00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 2: the whole year. So I think it's a four man 1038 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. 1039 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 1: Who's gonna win. The Mozilla say he don't give a 1040 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: fuck about it, but right, you know, it's crazy to 1041 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,480 Speaker 1: I think it's important for the coaches to get their flowers. 1042 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 1: I think not only the coaches, but the coaching staff too, 1043 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 1: and development group. We don't talk. We don't talk a 1044 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: lot about that. Those second and third defensive coaches are 1045 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:22,240 Speaker 1: those assistant coaches that put in the time for development 1046 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 1: that helps a lot of these kids get better. You 1047 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, that's what the flowers is. 1048 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, not just Joe Miszula, but 1049 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,040 Speaker 1: Joe Staff. 1050 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: He didn't give a staff credit. And I also don't 1051 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 2: think we're looking at how much Boston lost. Obviously Tatum 1052 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 2: was out eighty percent of the year, but you lose 1053 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:43,800 Speaker 2: to Drew Holliday, you lose a porzingis to lose there, 1054 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 2: that's a big losing. What for four starters. You lost 1055 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 2: four stars and came back. Tatum came back, So you're 1056 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 2: losing that much and and still to be sitting second 1057 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:55,479 Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference. As the hell of a feat 1058 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 2: that's that's that's major real talk. 1059 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 4: So to say all this, you guys like miss of 1060 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 4: the Year, I'm. 1061 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 1: Gonna take JB. Man. I didn't think beginning of the year, 1062 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,800 Speaker 1: at least on my list, I didn't have Detroit. I 1063 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 1: knew Detroit. I was expecting Detroit to be like five six, 1064 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: you know, they won't get back on the next And 1065 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 1: I see Kay climbing. Kate was a real live, uh 1066 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: MVP candidate this year. I saw the jump, the jump 1067 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 1: that I was expecting from some other players on other teams. 1068 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: I saw him make the superstar jump, you understand, and 1069 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: uh yeah. It gave me light so much that I 1070 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 1: watched durn Moore, I watched the whole Pistons team more, 1071 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,440 Speaker 1: and and and and what JB has created up there, 1072 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,239 Speaker 1: he's he's tapped into that culture that's always that's that 1073 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 1: that that that Piston coaches is always five basketball. It's 1074 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 1: always vibrating somewhere. It's always under some rocks where you 1075 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: cracking and it grows. Right. He's grown that defense that 1076 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: Detroit basketball to where it's vibbing. It's on another frequency there. 1077 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: They're really believing in, really taking on the personality of 1078 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,200 Speaker 1: the city again. You know what I'm saying. Did you 1079 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: watch okay see in Detroit? I actually thought, okay, she 1080 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,720 Speaker 1: was gonna blow them out, But then I thought about 1081 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: what Detroit shows up with every night, and that's heart 1082 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: and grit, you know what I'm saying. So yeah, jb 1083 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 1: uh to go in there and yeah, take that team 1084 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 1: and make it to what it is and established re 1085 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 1: establish a culture. Man, Yeah, that's everything. And you can't 1086 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 1: even leave out the Spurs guy either. What's his name again, 1087 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: miss John? All the coaches I think, I think m J, 1088 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 1: I think in Missoula and JB. I think to me, 1089 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,439 Speaker 1: it's you throw them three up and whoever gets the wards. 1090 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 1: I'm not mad at anybody. Me too cool. 1091 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:39,760 Speaker 4: Let's go back to the playoffs. 1092 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: See, the Hawks are trending, bro, The Hawks are trending 1093 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 1: upwards so hard that they probably are the most scariest 1094 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, at least in the East for me. 1095 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 1: Nobody know they I think they're either equal to or 1096 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 1: have the best second half record of the season, So 1097 00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 1: are up there. Yeah. Yeah, like Charlotte and the Atlanta 1098 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 1: are like scary teams to see right now, they are 1099 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 1: the most trending. If I'm being excited about somebody. To 1100 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 1: be honest, I think Cleveland. Cleveland has an X factor 1101 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,759 Speaker 1: that is kind of riding under the Nick narrative, the 1102 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: Boston narrative. You don't really hear too much, you know 1103 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I think they're gonna make a lot 1104 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: more noise than than people put, especially James up there. 1105 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 1: Cleveland's a dope time in the playoffs. No better place 1106 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 1: now fit in Cleveland. Who they really come out. Toronto's 1107 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 1: back in it. They're trending that. I know they had 1108 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: like a little skate as of late, but they've been 1109 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,920 Speaker 1: trying to trend. But yeah, Atlanta, man, Atlanta is scary. 1110 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 4: So you think of the like the bottom half teams 1111 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 4: in the Easter, they have the most potential to upset 1112 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 4: like a top seed. 1113 00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: You don't want to see Atlanta Charlotte right now? Oh 1114 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 1: you're for who you are. 1115 00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 2: I don't think Boston because they've been there and done that. 1116 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 2: I don't think they're an upset candidate, but I have 1117 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 2: to see until they do it. To me, Detroit can 1118 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 2: be an upset candidate because they're young and this is 1119 00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 2: their first time at the top of the hill in 1120 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 2: a on time. 1121 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,439 Speaker 1: With a young new group. 1122 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 2: I think the Knicks can get through the first round 1123 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,560 Speaker 2: against the Raptors, and then it's going to be a 1124 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:09,800 Speaker 2: coin flip and what kind of player Cat's going to 1125 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 2: because I think he's just so instrumental his versatility and 1126 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 2: whether he has his foot on the gas or he's 1127 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,400 Speaker 2: going to be settling, I think will dictate where the 1128 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 2: Knicks go. And then to take his point, Atlanta is hot, 1129 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 2: and is it Jalen Johnson, Yeah, but Superstar, he's right 1130 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 2: in Superstar, right in front of our eyes. 1131 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 1: Comina is gonna have you know. There ain't gonna be 1132 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: no handcuffs on him. 1133 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,839 Speaker 2: They got a talented young team in a rebuild Moe 1134 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:37,320 Speaker 2: where they let go with Trey Young. But then Cleveland, 1135 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,719 Speaker 2: we've been Cleveland's been buzzing around for a long time 1136 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,879 Speaker 2: with Donovan, Mitchell and Big Fella and Mobley. And now 1137 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 2: you add James Harden, who has something to play for 1138 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:49,280 Speaker 2: because he has a history of struggling in the playoffs. 1139 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:53,239 Speaker 5: So Cleveland can be scary as well, very scary. They 1140 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,399 Speaker 5: got a lot of potential there. I was gonna say, 1141 00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:58,879 Speaker 5: Evan Mobley, he didn't have the year that we thought 1142 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:02,800 Speaker 5: he would have right, still has potential to drect breakout 1143 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 5: well webout to go to another part of the season. 1144 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 5: Guess who the focus is on, Donovan Mitchell, James Harden 1145 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 5: and then that's it right, perfect time to come in 1146 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,880 Speaker 5: here office to rebound, be a post presence. 1147 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: You know, playing that post high.

I hate that, Bro, I'll be wanting 1163 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 1: to see the natural creativity of how you would get 1164 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 1: out of this, you know what I'm saying, or how 1165 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,120 Speaker 1: they play in the summer, right that part, that's why 1166 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 1: like popping up to summer ball, because that's when you 1167 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 1: really see mufflers what you know what I'm saying. 1168 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 4: All Right, So that's the East. So it sounds like 1169 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 4: you guys like the Cavs potentially getting to the conference finals. 1170 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 4: But let's look West, so we have the Thunder there, 1171 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,799 Speaker 4: they'll play a playing team, Spurs playing team. Right now, 1172 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,960 Speaker 4: it's Lakers Rockets in the three six matchup, and then 1173 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 4: Nuggets timber Wolves in the four or five matches. The 1174 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,879 Speaker 4: West has some really good potential matchups here. 1175 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 2: I think to start with the Lakers, hottest team trending 1176 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 2: at the right time. And I said at the very 1177 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 2: beginning of the season that the Rockets not having a 1178 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,439 Speaker 2: true point guard was going to hurt them. I don't 1179 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 2: care about all the noise they're talking about with the 1180 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 2: Burners and Kate all that. To me, shit goes out 1181 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,480 Speaker 2: the window. But I think shout out to Amin Thompson. 1182 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 2: I think he's done a great job of kind of 1183 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 2: trying to fill a point forward role. His number are great, 1184 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,439 Speaker 2: he continues to get better, but I have to see 1185 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,920 Speaker 2: Katie at this point needs his spot in his kill spots, 1186 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 2: and I feel like him trying to initiate the offense 1187 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 2: and having the back guys down and that's taking away 1188 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:13,760 Speaker 2: his legs and taking away his shit. And then Sengoon 1189 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 2: is talented, but at the same time he needs to 1190 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,320 Speaker 2: get the ball in his spots where he can create 1191 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 2: or score. So I think not having Van Fleet, I 1192 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 2: like Shepard, but to me, he's more of a scoring guy. 1193 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,839 Speaker 2: Them not having a point guard is it was really 1194 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 2: to me a wasted season for this Rocket team. They 1195 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 2: should have went out and got someone at the deadline 1196 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 2: to fill that void until blad Fleet. So I'm taking 1197 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,280 Speaker 2: the Lakers in the Rocket matchup, and then that Minnesota. 1198 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,800 Speaker 2: Denver is good and Minnesota got him last year. It 1199 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 2: was either year before last year. Right, that's gonna be chippy. 1200 00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 2: I love McDaniels. Go Bear is gonna have to show up. 1201 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 2: You know, Ant's gonna show up. Jamal Murray is gonna 1202 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:53,919 Speaker 2: have to show up on the On the Denverer side, 1203 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:58,399 Speaker 2: we know what Yoka is gonna give us, and Reed 1204 00:53:58,520 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 2: Aaron Gordon. 1205 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:00,839 Speaker 1: Like it's that should go seven. 1206 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 2: That's gonna be a nice that'll probably be the best 1207 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,280 Speaker 2: first round UH series in the league. 1208 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 1: Ain't know what in the perfect world I wish they 1209 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 1: could be, Like I wish different could be over here 1210 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, could be over here and later yeah me 1211 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,480 Speaker 1: later that that's that right there is like a Western 1212 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: Conference final right there.

And then 1406 01:02:59,640 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: you know what, I wouldn't want to be part of 1407 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:04,600 Speaker 1: no other time than it's not ticket. 1408 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 4: I want to go back to just talking about the 1409 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,440 Speaker 4: playoff matchups. You're from the future. I feel like you've 1410 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 4: got a good sense of what's to come. Who's a 1411 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 4: player kind of in this postseason coming up that will 1412 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 4: emerge and will end the postseason talking about, Wow, this 1413 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 4: guy really elevated his game. Who's that guy? 1414 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:24,160 Speaker 1: I to you, Oh, I feel like potentially, because we 1415 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 1: all the attentions should be and it's going to be 1416 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:31,800 Speaker 1: probably on Luca and Broun, Austin Reeves has the potential 1417 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 1: to have a really impactful right. Julius Rando is another 1418 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 1: person that I think has another level to him that 1419 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: he can actually be an impact from twenty five twelve 1420 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,240 Speaker 1: kind of you know what I'm saying, Like a lot 1421 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 1: of stuff. I see him that if he slows down 1422 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,920 Speaker 1: a little bit and just puts some simplicity in his game, 1423 01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 1: he can he can add he can add another ten 1424 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 1: to twelve points to his game, you know what I'm saying. 1425 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 1: Devin Booker, No one's talks about the Phoenix, Phoenixio Phoenix. 1426 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: To me, it's like the West Coast God damn Atlanta 1427 01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:14,640 Speaker 1: and not playing as well. But they got to cast 1428 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 1: the guys that play hard. Shout Brooks, Billan, Dylan brook 1429 01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks. They got they got g green back. He 1430 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,680 Speaker 1: just got back, he back. You know, he was hurt 1431 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 1: the majority of the year. But yeah, man, crazy run 1432 01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 1: that man. I'm a I'm a man, if I'm a man, 1433 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 1: if I'm gonna sit here and say somebody because I 1434 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 1: just put all the Joker Man, I think all the 1435 01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: flares been up on wind being it man, Joker, Joker 1436 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 1: on have one of these quiet dominant And I hate 1437 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 1: to say that because I don't want to see that 1438 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,680 Speaker 1: against my Wolves, But the Joker Joker been dominating for 1439 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 1: a long for a while, and we and it's been 1440 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 1: overshadowed by Luca or some eighty three. You know what 1441 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Bamn ship, you know what I'm saying, Big 1442 01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 1: fella been hooping quietly. 1443 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 2: My two guys are on the same t and in 1444 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:05,840 Speaker 2: the same back court. Baron Fox in the playoffs. I 1445 01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 2: think this will be his second time in the playoffs, 1446 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:10,080 Speaker 2: one time with the Kings and then Stefan Castle. I 1447 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 2: think he'll make y'all like him. He's dope on both 1448 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,160 Speaker 2: sides of the ball, and the Aaron is great on 1449 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,800 Speaker 2: both sides of the ball too, So I think that backcourt, 1450 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 2: with the way we already know what Wimby's gonna give us. 1451 01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 2: Wimby doesn't seem to be affected by no type of 1452 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 2: lights or environment, So he's going to be the constant. 1453 01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 2: It's always what your others are going to give you. 1454 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 2: When I say others respectfully, because both those guys Fox 1455 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,720 Speaker 2: and Castle both very good. But I think that backcourt 1456 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 2: can be the key. And what are they three and 1457 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,280 Speaker 2: one against okay See this year and more than one 1458 01:05:40,320 --> 01:05:41,440 Speaker 2: against okay See this year. 1459 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 1: I keep talking about this regular season ship don't mean shit, 1460 01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 1: but I'm just saying they're not. 1461 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:47,959 Speaker 2: They're not going to go into that ship against okay 1462 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 2: See afraid at all. They're gonna go in with a high. 1463 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 2: It reminds me of the way we win it against 1464 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 2: Dallas when we were the eighth seed with Golden State. 1465 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 2: We were three and one against him, if I'm not mistaken, 1466 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 2: in the regular season, and we went in believing as 1467 01:06:01,920 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 2: an eight seed, we don't give a fuck that Dirk 1468 01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:05,640 Speaker 2: was the MVP, and they won six seven games. We 1469 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,760 Speaker 2: beat these motherfuckers already, and that's the mindset we went with. 1470 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 2: So I feel like that's kind of the regularly doesn't 1471 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 2: mean ship. You're one hundred percent right, but they have 1472 01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:16,640 Speaker 2: the confidence to know that we can play with these dudes, 1473 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 2: and they're going in thinking we can beat these motherfuckers. 1474 01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,160 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

Let's start with Illinois and Yukon. 1510 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 2: You talked about him earlier. They built something different in 1511 01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 2: college basketball. They they they've built that that that over 1512 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 2: the water influx. These boys are playing and similar to 1513 01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 2: the NBA. Man, it's about being hot at the right time. 1514 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 2: So I really like them. I think yukon Is is tough. 1515 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 2: I think they take on the personality of their coach. 1516 01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:23,520 Speaker 2: But they're gonna have to be hitting on all cylinders 1517 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,960 Speaker 2: to get Illinois. I mean, they came back and walked 1518 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 2: duke down and hit the big shot to get themselves there. 1519 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:32,240 Speaker 2: But they're gonna have to be hitting on all cylinders 1520 01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 2: because these these these euro boys don't give a fuck. 1521 01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 1: About none of that. Do stiles matter? 1522 01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:39,760 Speaker 2: And yeah, I think I think so. I definitely think so. 1523 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:43,759 Speaker 2: I think styles are always always come into plays. 1524 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:45,120 Speaker 1: This Connecticut team. 1525 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 2: This Connecticut and who's who's the guy and he didn't 1526 01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 2: have a big game last game. I want to say 1527 01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 2: he's a senior or a fifth year senior, the one 1528 01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 2: that shot the ball really well, the bigger kid, what's 1529 01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:01,000 Speaker 2: his name, Caravan. He's got to be big because to me, 1530 01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:02,560 Speaker 2: you kind of doesn't have that guy that you know 1531 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 2: you're gonna go get that bucket from a. 1532 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:06,840 Speaker 1: Big fellow ship, throw that ship down a big fellow boy. 1533 01:09:06,920 --> 01:09:08,320 Speaker 1: I listen, shut the bit. 1534 01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 2: I like him.
