Speaker 3: Just one fifty? Oh will just one fifty?

20
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: You want many fifties? Yeah? Dwight Howard would give this

21
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: a fifty oh yeah, easily. Brent Barry maybe not harsh judge.

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: I'm much more strict when it came to judging.

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: If you say that sounds like farts in here than

24
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 2: Dwyight Howard, Like, yeah, did you.

25
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: Say farts fifty? All right, So we're going to regap

26
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: all that just went down here on All Stars Saturday Night.

27
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: We'll maybe talk a little bit about Friday Night, the

28
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: Celebrity Game and the Rising Stars little tournament. And we

29
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: did have Chris Paul News he's officially retired. But we

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: start with Keyshaw Johnson dancing his way to a contest.

31
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 3: Wow, is infectious.

32
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: This guy brought the energy and some good dunks, no doubt.

33
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: Let's start with you TK your thoughts on key Shot

34
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: Johnson winning and this whole thing, the whole dunk contest

35
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: here tonight. Ta Johnson won. Good for him.

36
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 3: He sees the opportunity kind of an unknown player around

37
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 3: the league. You can't find a lot of his dunks

38
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 3: even on heat social media. So he said, I gotta

39
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 3: make a name for myself, and guess what he did.

40
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 3: That's what you get for going in the dunk contest.

41
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: We're gonna know who keishat Johnson is had some good dunks,

42
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 3: most notably he was dancing at every opportunity. People think

43
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: it helped. Like he squeaked into the finals just ahead

44
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 3: of Jackson Hayes, only one point different on the scorecards

45
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: at the end of two dunks in the first round.

46
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 3: Wasn't from selling the dunks afterwards with his dancing, Maybe so,

47
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 3: but it gotten hurt finals, Yeah, and he showed nerves

48
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 3: of steel, kept dancing the whole time even when the

49
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 3: cards were down. Carter Bryant hits a big fifty first.

50
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: One of the night.

51
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 3: What's Keishat Johnson gonna do. He's gonna do a solid dunk.

52
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 3: He's gonna get a forty eight. He did the windmill

53
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 3: from the dotted line, but danced hard, and that gotten

54
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: Carter Bryant's head. How do I answer the dance right?

55
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 3: And he couldn't meet the moment, unlike Keisho who did

56
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 3: his thing.

57
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: It is funny that key shot. Arguably his worst dunk

58
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: in the night was his final dunk. You know, the

59
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: the windmill as you called it, from well within the

60
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: free throw line. That looked to be I don't know,

61
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,239
Speaker 1: maybe three or four feet from the free throw line.

62
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: But he did the windmill. But the other one's task.

63
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: I mean the one. The first dunk took him an

64
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: attempt or two, but he dunked over e forty. He

65
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: did a little you know, hand behind the head Carl

66
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: Malone stell as he was siling that guy has the

67
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: biggest grin in the world. And then he did the

68
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: two hand reverse because he switched it up after a

69
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 1: couple of missed dunk attempts where he was trying to

70
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: go baseline through the legs. But then he did that

71
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: one in his first dunk in the final and I

72
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that was his probably best dunk. He

73
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: threw that one down and then yeah, like I said,

74
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: the final windmill. But overall, not bad at all. The

75
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: kid's dancing his heart out.

76
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: You know what they say, make sure you're dancing before

77
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 2: your first dunk attempt, because he came out there. He

78
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 2: came out of the hallway.

79
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: Dancing, yeah, oh yeah, showing his abs showed as a.

80
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: Lot, a lot, and his smile also infectious. He just

81
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: couldn't stop smiling the entire time he brought it. He

82
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 2: did seize the moment. Carter Bryant lost the moment that

83
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,839
Speaker 2: could have been his just losing the balls slipping out

84
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 2: of his hands on that reverse move. After talking to

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: Vince Carter mid ninety seconds that he had you know,

86
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: I don't know. He probably talked to Vince for about

87
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 2: fifteen eighteen seconds. After multiple misses, you just had to

88
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 2: throw it down. Vince did talk him up. He looked

89
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 2: like he was going to throw it down when he

90
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: went up there, he just somehow reversed in the air

91
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 2: the balls in his hands, and it looked like it

92
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 2: just slipped from the left to the right and out.

93
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 2: And so this could have been in Carter Bryant's moment.

94
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: It probably should have been.

95
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 2: It should have been.

96
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: And if he puts that down, you think he wins,

97
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: is what you're saying. Yeah, Oh, I think everybody the

98
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: loan fifty in this dunk content the.

99
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: Loan fifty he had yet. And both those guys were

100
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: smart in that they knew they didn't have to throw

101
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 2: down something spectacular with their second dunk, their second on

102
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 2: the first round show Johnson and Carter Brian they just

103
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: kind of threw it down. And what they had planned

104
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 2: for their second dunk, they brought it for the third

105
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,719
Speaker 2: dunk in each of them. So the dunkers are getting smarter.

106
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 2: That was obviously well planned.

107
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: Well, they were helped out by one guy in Jackson

108
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: Hayes having a hilarious brain fart and just dunking it. Honestly,

109
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: we're thinking, is he going from the free throw line? No,

110
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: he just just ran way back there and then ran

111
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: up and then just did a dunk. So that was

112
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 1: a big brain fart. And then obviously Jace Richardson who

113
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: was trying to get one off, like a pretty creative

114
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: pass from this guy in a leather jacket off the

115
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: corner of the backboard and he was trying to like

116
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: three sixty while he caught it. You know, there's a

117
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: lot of moving parts, is my point, and he was

118
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: not really coming close to ever putting it down. And

119
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: then he fell and wiped out on his ass and

120
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: looked like he smoked his head first and there was

121
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 1: more hair at least.

122
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, well he kept his head.

123
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

124
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 1: We we were got a little concern there for.

125
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't see that monitor at

126
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: the autom of it, so I couldn't see him lying

127
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 2: on the ground. I had to, I said, I said

128
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 2: ship and I got up. I literally had to stand

129
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 2: up to be able to see him on his back.

130
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 2: It's nice of us to start with the winner and

131
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 2: the runner up, but really, the two moments that are

132
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: on social media right now, unfortunately are that because unfortunately

133
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 2: Jaysreserds had ran into the side of the backboard. He

134
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 2: hit the side of the backboard, and it's Jackson Hayes.

135
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 2: Those are the two moments that are taking over because

136
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 2: those are the moments, not just because of what Twitter

137
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: is right now, but because it wasn't a spectacular night otherwise.

138
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: No, no, this is not as far as the don con.

139
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: You think this is the worst dunk contest of all time? Though,

140
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: uh not immediately, No, I don't think so.

141
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 3: I think this was a perfectly fine dun con right

142
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 3: right right, just somewhere in the vast middle.

143
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, And a big part of that is we came

144
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: in with the lowest of expectations, so that is playing

145
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: a part here. And obviously no big names. Basically nobody

146
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 1: knows these guys on the casual.

147
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 2: What happened to Jalen Durn just a question. I don't know.

148
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: I would have been an all star who's there? But yes, yes,

149
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 2: as far as they go. But you know, the two guys,

150
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 2: the young guys and Carl Bryant Keisha Johnson was a

151
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 2: little older. Actually, Uh, they were there, They.

152
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Were there, and we always say it just takes two

153
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: guys to give us a good dunk contest. And we

154
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: were getting there, we got we got there until it

155
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: just ended like a wet fart when Carter Briton couldn't

156
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: put down the final one.

157
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,559
Speaker 3: I mean, the three things you're gonna remember are Jackson Hayes,

158
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: Jase Richardson, and Carter Bryant running out of time.

159
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: You don't think he Shad's dancing?

160
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 3: Maybe so yeah, yeah, when you're when you're saying who

161
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: winners of all time, his name will come up back.

162
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he was.

163
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: Dancing the whole time, right, yeah, first think.

164
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 3: But I mean you could say that two things we

165
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: saw two things tonight that we'd never seen before. The

166
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 3: worst made dunk of all time in Jackson Hayes. That's

167
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 3: gonna be on the list.

168
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: It's yeah, it's there. He just he just ran up.

169
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 3: And dunked it. He was like, oh, man, forgot he

170
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 3: was I forgot to do something.

171
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: So I was supposed to do what.

172
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 3: I couldn't quite grasp it. And then Jason Richardson. It's

173
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 3: gonna go down as one of the worst misses of all.

174
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

175
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's unfortunate for him, Yes, I guess, yeah, no,

176
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: it is that doubt you wouldn't want. Like, what's worse.

177
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: I think I think Jase is going to be like

178
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: him falling. Unfortunately, it's worse something than Jackson Hayes just

179
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: doing a completely normal dunk.

180
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, like its Jackson Hayes's dunk, worse than Chris Anderson

181
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: or whatever. Yeah, I think it's not.

182
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: As well, it's not as forget it or no, it's

183
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: not as memorable.

184
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 2: Was memorable, Yeah, yeah, because it's it's just he actually

185
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 2: did dunk it. It's unbelievable that he came out there

186
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: didn't know what he was doing, and then he had

187
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: to talk to his dunk coach. Dunk coach had to

188
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 2: send him down and tell him, do.

189
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: You know where we are right now?

190
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: This is what we just what we live for, and

191
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 2: then he brought it on the second dunk with the

192
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 2: tap thing.

193
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: Yeah it was okay, it was he nearly made the

194
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: final it was one point.

195
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it.

196
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: Wasn't that much of a difference. And that was when

197
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: Keishad was struggling a little bit on his second attempt,

198
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: which was the one he did in the final, which

199
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: was awesome, like off the bounce, through the legs, sort

200
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: of under the rim looked great in the final, but

201
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: he was struggling with it on his second attempt, so

202
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 1: he switched it up, and he wisely switched it up.

203
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I was just smart, he was aware. I

204
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: can't say Jackson Hayes was a lot of this.

205
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 2: No, definitely not.

206
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely not. And Jace Richards his first dunk was

207
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 3: pretty good. It was kind of like, uh, Jay rich

208
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 3: reignited dunk that they gave him, and he did do

209
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 3: a father dunk, Yeah, replicating off the glass, you know,

210
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 3: kind of turn and reverse it. It looked good.

211
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's much smaller than his dad. He obviously can't

212
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: jump as high. I mean yeah, Like I was shocked

213
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: by it because I talked all week about like, I

214
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: are sure this guy could even dunk, like like I

215
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: was like I was joking, but sort of joking, like

216
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: he's dunk like Kerry Irving, Like he just gets it

217
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: over the wrists and he gained dunk we've seen, But

218
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: that did shock me. That was pretty good.

219
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: It was.

220
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a good start that one. I mean,

221
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: the guy who passing it was not doing a great job.

222
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: Was the passer to blame, And it's a fair question.

223
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: It was a difficult past. He's trying to pass it

224
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: off the corner, off off the backboard.

225
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would say the passer didn't get better

226
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 2: after each attempt, no, multiple times to try and give

227
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: it to him. It wasn't a good spot. And that

228
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: last one was really close and literally Jase Richardson ran

229
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 2: into the side of the backboard because it was so

230
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: close and hit the floor real hard.

231
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: Why did they Why did the pass have to come

232
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: off the corner of the backboard. Couldn't you just moved

233
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: over a little bit and just put it on straight

234
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: glass Yep, would have been the same.

235
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 2: Thing, like the actual glass.

236
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just easier passes what I'm saying

237
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: to probably successfully complete. Yeah, and so the un trying

238
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: to do it three to sixty I get that.

239
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 2: But yeah, and so the dunker doesn't run into the

240
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 2: backboard that was a problem.

241
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

242
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's and I bring up social media unfortunately,

243
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 2: because those are the things we'll remember. As you said

244
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 2: that Jackson, maybe some dancing. Yes, yes, should have been

245
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 2: Carter Bryant's. But you were very upset about Vince Carter

246
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 2: talking to him.

247
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 1: You are on the live stream, you were, in fact,

248
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing, but you're like, he should get another ten

249
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 1: or twenty seconds.

250
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because he was talking to Vince this they

251
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 2: ache have ninety seconds. I think Vince started talking to

252
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: him about thirty five seconds left on the clock.

253
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was trying to hype him up.

254
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: He tried him and he didn't and he did a

255
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 2: good job because the dunk attempt looked pretty good.

256
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: And also Carter Bryant, as the stream team was pointing

257
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 1: out when we were doing this, they were like, he's

258
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: basically doing Vince dunks. That's what Carter Bright was doing,

259
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: like worst versions of Vince Carter's awesome dunk.

260
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: Yeah. The reason why I thought we could have got

261
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: a time pause because Vince is part of the broadcast.

262
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: He was bringing it tonight, you know, and so it

263
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 2: could have just sort of been part of the show.

264
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 2: Here's a pause, you know, are in between the rounds

265
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 2: of the boxer, you know, like this give him a

266
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: little little a little huff, little break, just give him

267
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 2: a sack. Just give him a sack, give him a second.

268
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 3: You gotta call the time out if you're having a

269
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 3: full conversation with Vince Carter, take.

270
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: Should be able to get a time out now, like

271
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 2: you can call time when you're in the home run derby.

272
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: You get one break, give me one break during dunk contest.

273
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: Actually we'll get to uh batting practice pictures sort of

274
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 2: the vibe a little bit later on. But yeah, I

275
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 2: do also think that it's because you can't pause the clock. Carter.

276
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 2: Brian should have known I gotta go. I like you,

277
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: I respect your game, I respect your performance in the

278
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 2: dunk contest. I will always remember that. But please let

279
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 2: me go dunk because.

280
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: You just ran hold on like Vince did his part.

281
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: He got him hyped up. He said, come on, kid,

282
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: is that your nickname? Yeah, they told us it was

283
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: your new nickname. You're the kid. Go throw it down,

284
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: and he threw it. Jamal Covert on the broadcast like

285
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: that's it. That's the one. Because it was a perfect toss.

286
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 1: He was high enough, he was high enough, and he

287
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: just like you thought, he like it looked at the

288
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: I think he just like he just had the angle.

289
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: Ever so slightly wrong on the reverse, thinking obviously it's

290
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: just gonna put it straight in the rim.

291
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 3: But he thought he was good, thought, oh yeah, it's

292
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: going down, and.

293
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: Then he and then he and then obviously the panic

294
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: set in because then the clock was really low and

295
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, he's just trying to get it down.

296
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 3: Young pep Dash is saying here in the stream team

297
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 3: he should have kept missing because if he misses all

298
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 3: of his dunks and his time runs out an untimed attempt. Wow,

299
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 3: you gotta know the loopholes.

300
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: Is that a real loophole?

301
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 3: I don't know, but Young Peptash is saying it with authority,

302
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: and it sounds like something that they would have the rule.

303
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: So the clock ends and then one more you get

304
00:13:59,360 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: to do one.

305
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 3: Farmer's chance.

306
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 2: That would have been memorable. You win it after the clock,

307
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 2: after the buzzer, that would have been awesome.

308
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: Okay, So yeah, not the greatest dunk contest, No, No,

309
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: amazingly not the worst, which is pretty wild. Would it's yeah,

310
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: we won't look, we'll be struggling to remember who won

311
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 1: this dunk contest in I don't know, probably next year

312
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: with us as we're old. But give it a three

313
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: or four years, we'll have no idea. We'll have to

314
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: really rack our brain and go, yeah, well he shot

315
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: no key shot looks like it's.

316
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: Like Jeremy Evans won a dunk contest because he jumped

317
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: over a paint, a painting.

318
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: Of himself he painted apparently, So that's basically key shot.

319
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: Like that his like his easel and paint was just dancing.

320
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: People expressed themselves in different ways. Yeah, we'll remember we

321
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: had spoken word or.

322
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 3: Anything like that.

323
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: The poet poet so Aaron Gordon came out to I'm

324
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 2: a classic man, but uh say, didn't he depo sang? Yeah?

325
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, is so stupid when he's pretty dumb when

326
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 3: you're talking about it.

327
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just compared to Jeremy Evans because it's like

328
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 2: a similar guy that we won't remember. But we'll remember

329
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 2: the painting more so than the dancing I think anyways,

330
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: because it's just there's a visual that he did.

331
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like Fred Jones comes to mind, like when he

332
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: won his dunk contest way back, like that was not

333
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: a good dunk contest. I mean Fred Jones is like

334
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: everybody's like, who the hell is that type thing? Like yeah,

335
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: he's probably where that's where we're at. But the problem is,

336
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: I gets unfortunate because like we did have two guys

337
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: that were throwing down dunks. They weren't taking a ton

338
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: of attempts. They were bringing, you know, some energy, especially

339
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: a lot of energy in Keia's case. So like the

340
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 1: recipes are there, they were they were trying, and they're

341
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: also dunking at like four in the afternoon. Here, it's

342
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: not even all Star Saturday Night. We got to change

343
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: that lower third. It's all Start Saturday Saturday, Saturday evening

344
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: or afternoon.

345
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and as who said it here ink hog neat

346
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: Oh we look, said Jeremy Evans over the painting was

347
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 2: actually twenty thirteen, the year Terrence Ross won, So Jeremy

348
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 2: Evans won it the year before when he didn't have

349
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: the painting. You see that's how much it's left. It's

350
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: burned in my brain, Is that right? Yeah? You see,

351
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 2: you guys don't even call me.

352
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: Jeremy Evans went in it again to defend thee. Yeah

353
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: he did jump over Gordon Hayward sitting in a chair.

354
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: I remember that, Yes, Yeah, he definitely did that. I

355
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: don't know why I remember that, but I do ye.

356
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 2: It was Gordon Hayward painting.

357
00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: No, no, no painting he was I think, I think, yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,

358
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: but we remember that even though he lost. All right, anyway, look,

359
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: respect for them going in it, Jacks and Hayes, come on,

360
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: no respect to him, respect it all. I just don't

361
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: do not think that is a smart guy. I literally

362
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: think he was like, well, wait, where where am I?

363
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 3: What do we do?

364
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 2: Yeah?

365
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 3: Warm up?

366
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: Any other thoughts on the dunk contest? And I see

367
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: our guy bones obviously scoring this one of the judges.

368
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: He had on the clippers jacket from his dunk contest

369
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: win thirty years ago to the not day maybe, but

370
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: to the weekend. Yeah, somebody could have off.

371
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 2: Somebody could have fixed that. He had his collar he

372
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 2: was wearing underneath his jacket was flared out over the

373
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 2: top of his jackboy.

374
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: Well maybe that's why he took the jacket off. You

375
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: only have it on at like the first one.

376
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah. But when they got to him and

377
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 2: they showed him on the camera, here's Brent Barry. Somebody

378
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 2: could have fixed his collar.

379
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: I liked how strict you was with judging. He was

380
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 1: the should be back the whole time was Doctor j

381
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: Doctor j has been on a lot of these and

382
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: he's always pretty good too. Dwight Howard he was like sort.

383
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: Of Brand was calling him out. Brand was looking at Dwight,

384
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 2: what are you doing forty nine on that?

385
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: Dwaight? Come on? Yeah? And mcgeeddy and uh, who's the

386
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 1: other one? There's somebody else there do Niek was he's

387
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: pretty kind when it comes to the dunkky. He's done

388
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: this a lot too. Well. I need some way to

389
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: do a breakdown on how many, Like who's our all

390
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: time dunk Contest judge leader, who's one of the most.

391
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: I think doctor Jake's got to be the leader.

392
00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of like Lebron he's got the long.

393
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: He did so, Yeah, I do want to know justo

394
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 2: was there really into the dunk contest? That guy just

395
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 2: loves everything. And we'll get to Damian Lillard and how

396
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 2: we respect how how much he respects the game. But yeah, yeah,

397
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 2: he was there at celebrity contests, the celebrity game, the coach.

398
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 2: He was the coach and he was into it. He

399
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,040
Speaker 2: was eating popcorn and getting.

400
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: In He viewed not playing chomps, not playing hooping, he's

401
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: saying he might be right, and he's saying.

402
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 2: We're not stacked. You know why, because we've got chomps

403
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: out there that guy can't hoop. But he's there the

404
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 2: next night. He doesn't have to be here at the

405
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: dunk Contest. He didn't have to, but he was into it,

406
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 2: like with the Dunkers.

407
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: He's recording it on his phone. Yeah, why back, No,

408

Speaker 1: I don't, I don't.

409
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, show it to his kids.

410
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 1: Maybe he hands it off to like a social media

411
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 1: manager for his account, like hey, do I have anything?

412
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 2: But yeah, he is so into it. He would have

413
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 2: been so into playing tomorrow night at the All Star

414
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 2: Game because he really wanted this USA Versus the World thing.

415
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 2: He picked it up.

416
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 1: There on the bench. I guess with the team World.

417
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, I would think so, unless unless, as

418
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 2: Damian Lillard asked him in the whole way after winning

419
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,920
Speaker 2: the three point contest, unless he's got some some calshy

420
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 2: thing to do. Damian Lillard asked him, did you play

421
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 2: some money on Calshe on me to win the three

422
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 2: point contest, And that's caught on camera and he said, well,

423
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 2: whoa wah wahah, whoa who don't do that, buddy, don't

424
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 2: do that. I missed that too. That's too fun.

425
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the three point contest. Let's

426
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 1: talk Dame. Let me hit you with a mcmhimon lead here.

427
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 1: Damian Lillard hasn't played in a game this season for

428
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: the Portland Trailblazers as he recovers from an achilles' tear,

429
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: but when he stepped on the court for Saturday's all

430
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: start three point shootout, it was Dame time. Just as always.

431
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: M thanks mcmhamon for that Dame one competition. With a

432
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: final round score twenty nine, edged out Booker, he edged

433
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: out Canipple. This was fun because those were our three

434
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 1: picks to win this thing. I had Booker, you had

435
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: con you had Damian Lillard, so we all had our

436
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: guy in the end, uh and Booker, I guess sort

437
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: of similar to Carter Brian in a way. I had

438
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: a chance to win this thing. Basically had to hit

439
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: what two out of the final three balls, two out

440
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,439
Speaker 1: of three of his moneyball rack and he wins it.

441
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and just one to tie it to right, go

442
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 2: on right to it.

443
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: Right, So just two out of three and he has it.

444
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: But he misses his final three and Damian Lillard gets

445
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: it with a very good score and obviously a really

446
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: great performance. And he did it all in pants. Did

447
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: it all in that my first note, all pants.

448
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 3: A lot of guys were wearing pants so only fitting

449
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 3: like an elastic waistband and the guy rocking full legs

450
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 3: would win it. But Dame, yeah, a twenty nine, like

451
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 3: you're saying, Booker, I think had thirty and the first

452
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 3: round could have got to thirty one or thirty three

453
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 3: if he made his shots at the end. Very high

454
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,719
Speaker 3: scores all around, But cool that Dame did it, Like

455
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 3: we're gonna get into the dude really respects All Star

Speaker 3: Saturday Night, yep. And he's one of the all time greats.

457
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,719
Speaker 3: Maybe this helps him enter the great shooters competition, as

458
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 3: somebody mentioned when we were alive streaming, like, hey, he's

467
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 2: I did see on FanDuel today there are odds for

468
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 2: each shooter and where they're going to hit or if

469
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 2: they were going to hit from the starry ball don't

470
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 2: call it. Yeah, it was called starry ball until tonight,

471
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 2: until the State Farm ball, and Dame had the best

472
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: odds because he hit some deep balls and he was

473
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,360
Speaker 2: ready for this moment. So good for him.

474
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody in the contest hit both from

475
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 1: the logo state farm deep balls in the same I

476
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: don't think so.

477
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 3: There weren't a lot of deep ball makes period. I

478
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 3: think every once in a while, yeah, yeah, but I

479
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 3: don't think Dame hit one at least.

480
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe another one or two.

481
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 3: Sure.

482
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, this was awesome, great starting with it, I think, yes,

483
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 1: you know, I mean you could argue you could end

484
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: with this thing, start with it, and well you said

485
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: you heard my idea on the lasttream this should be

486
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 1: the only thing on All Star sites. But we have

487
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: like one hundred shooters, like.

488
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 3: A deep tournament six fourteen.

489
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you gotta shoot a lot of times. Oh

490
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: be fun. Now, once we expand to thirty two teams,

491
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 1: everybody sends a representative. Everybody sends a rep. That's interesting.

492
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: We just have a advanced we're shooting, baby, Well, we

493
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: could just put them. We could do it like old school,

494
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: like they used to do it. Two shooters at once,

495
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: split screen. We could fly through that. It'll be fun

496
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 1: as hell. Why not really cool anyways, Always.

497
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 2: The positive about that, no one would say no to

498
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 2: a unlike the dunk contest. Well, yeah, like they'll never

499
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: say no, I'm not going to shoot. That would never happens.

500
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: They're in the NBA. They're a majority of ys when

501
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: there's no defense, and these are the best of the best.

502
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, and production wise, it was cool to see the

503
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: fireworks behind the background.

504
00:23:59,560 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

505
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of neat, like as a shot

506
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 2: goes down, like, I don't know if it blinded anybody

507
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 2: blinded a shooter. I don't think so.

508
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: When were they firing the fire off like definitely racks

509
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: or like on big makes or.

510
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 2: Was it just definitely for the long balls like if

511
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: if you did hit the state farm from the lash

512
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 2: starry ball. Yes, it went off other times other times. Yeah,

513
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 2: it was hard to tell when, but it looked cool.

514
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 2: It looked cool.

515
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 3: Lead him a little more juice.

516
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought you were going to bring up when

517
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: you said production the camera guy they had in the

518
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: one corner camera guy or a woman. I'm not sure

519
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: they were doing the worst job of the night because

520
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: they were the whole time. Obviously they were moving too

521
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,119
Speaker 1: much with their camera because they were behind the shooter,

522
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: behind the rack, and they were really always wanted you

523
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 1: to see the guy pick up the ball, and so

524
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 1: he would go over and then because of the graphics

525
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:00,439
Speaker 1: on the left hand side of the screen, sometimes you

526
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: would not get back in time to then see whether

527
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: the shot went in. And it was always in that

528
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: I guess what you call that.

529
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 3: The bottom right corner.

530
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, bottom right corner. Sure, yeah, you're looking at the

531
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 1: rim on the right side. So that happened a lot.

532
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: There was a couple of times we were like, did

533
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 1: it go in? That's got to be a blocked off camera.

534
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: I maybe one d angles. What do you think how

535
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: do we keep that?

536
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 3: How do we keep that in frame so we can

537
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,240
Speaker 3: see I mean, I don't care that much about reaching

538
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 3: for the ret No, we don't need to see them

539
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 3: pick up if you want to see it, what's the

540
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 3: best way to accomplish that?

541
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean you're exactly right, like either pick

542
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 4: the rack or the arc in the air, and I

543
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 4: would argue, I would argue, you don't need to see

544
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 4: the arc, right, You want to see the grab and

545
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 4: the basket go in, but when it flies out of frame,

546
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 4: I know it's where it's headed. Yeah, you don't need

547
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 4: all of it. That's the thing that was causing all

548
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 4: the movement.

549
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, well yeah, a lot of yeah, because

550
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: he just kept going rocking back and forth where all

551
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: the other ones it felt like that wasn't an issue.

552
00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,120
Speaker 1: We were always seeing it. But anyway, it was very entertaining.

553
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: And Lillard joins Larry Bird and Craig Hodges as the

554
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: only three time winners of the event, which started in

555
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty six. So I imagine he's going to go in

556
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: this again. Why wouldn't Damian Lillard compete again? You're not

557
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 1: even playing this year, so he'll have a go at

558
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,479
Speaker 1: number four and to have the all time record.

559
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 2: You called Devin who got there super super close todame

560
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 2: and I wanted to bring up this tweet here because

561
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: it's an observation from our friend, our old friend coach Nick,

562
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: who says Devin Booker started in the left corner, unlike

563
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 2: everyone else. I thought conkaor Nipple did. But anyway, he said,

564
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 2: the cheat code is that it allows him to have

565
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 2: the initial rack on his right side. That means the

566
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 2: right corner rack is also on his right side. And

567
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 2: it led to a thirty point round. How did the

568
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 2: others not know this?

569
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: What are they?

570
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a little confused. Coach Nick never messes up.

571
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: But what do we run in there? What rack can

572
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: we run in there?

573
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 3: What do we rack it here? Yeah?

574
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 2: I don't get that. Sorry to bring that up, but

575
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 2: I thought I thought I thought maybe somebody was.

576
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:09,719
Speaker 1: Angry enough for a second.

577
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:17,160
Speaker 2: No, no, no, but what anyway, Okay, I thought is important.

578
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 2: It's super important.

579
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: That came up with that. That's our very only ellis

580
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: who was early to the game, who helped Steph Curry

581
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 1: arguably win his first three point content.

582
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, and and.

583
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 3: Del Curry to this day is talking about rack placements. Yep.

584
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 2: So he's saying on the broadcast, he's advising that for

585
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 2: conkor Nipple, who was great finishing third.

586
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. And they obviously the whole thing was

587
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: like who was the worst shooter? What was the worst

588
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: score Bobby.

589
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 3: Bobby had a low score.

590
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,880
Speaker 1: Maxie I feel like had mad max score. He might

591
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 1: have had the loss, but a lot of other decent

592
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: scores because we were like I always like it in

593
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 1: the starts because you're like, oh, what's it going to

594
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: take to make the final, And we were like probably

595
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 1: twenty five I think we were throwing out I don't know,

596
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: we were pretty close. Well I guess you had to

597
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: almost be higher than that, but they all were so Yeah,

598
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: you had to put down a good score, and they

599
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 1: a lot of guys did. So it was great. Donovan

600
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: Mitchell I like he didn't even pissed that he wasn't

601
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 1: in the final. God damn.

602
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, he wanted it.

603
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 1: These guys wanted he had pants on too.

604
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 3: Cold up?

605
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: Is it cold in the Into It Dome?

606
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 3: We need a report.

607
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: Let's hear it was the cold in the Into It

608
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: dough the igloo they could call it if it's really cool.

609
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: They have the ice wall.

610
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, like thron the wall.

611
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Perfect.

612
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 3: Curious that the wall was so well attended.

613
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, so fired up? Well they're paid actors. Yeah,

614
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: our friends at Hello and welcome, Will and Alex and

615
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 1: our guy Jerome, who we had on the monitor behind

616
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: us with cash for most of the last few uh,

617
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: they were hypothesizing from Friday night's events at least that

618
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: they were paid actors on the wall. The rest of

619
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 1: the place was empty apparently. I don't know about tonight.

620
00:28:58,280 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: I can't speak to that, but Friday night was like

621
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: half empty for this for the Rising Stars game, and

622
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 1: but that wall was fill filled.

623
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 2: Some inside information. We got some inside information that's aid

624
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 2: it was pretty empty tonight as well.

625
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well, and that's three o'clock in two o'clock

626
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, so it's a weird time for people.

627
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 2: And that's in part why they started with the dunk

628
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: contest excuse me, a three point contest, so it didn't

629
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 2: start with the shoot around.

630
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 1: They were trying. What you're saying is they're trying to

631
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: get people in their seats to the start of it,

632
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: because if it's a skills competition or shooting stars, nobody's

633
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: gonna show up. They'll be like, I'll show up an

634
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: hour in exactly. Maybe you show up for the three

635
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 1: point contest. Yeah, yeah, but didn't work.

636
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: Well, I guess.

637
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: Not not full anyway. Any other thoughts on the three

638
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: point contest. Yeah, no, just good good. Should we end

639
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: with it? Should it be the final?

640
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 3: You got a shot?

641
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: Why not start with the dunks?

642
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, less pressure, try it. Try literally, We'll try anything

643
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 3: with All Star Weekend, except it has them with the

644
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 3: dunk contest. It changed the format one hundred times. Three

645
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 3: point contests used to be split screen. We've done eight

646
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: thousand different formats of the All Star Game. Yeah, just

647
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 3: try the three point contest last night. I see what happens. Yeah.

648
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: The good thing about that is like, you know, you're

649
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: just gonna end on a fairly like above average moment

650
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: yep like and more times than not, I know you

651
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: could have the odd like wow, that guy in the

652
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: final really shit the bed and he couldn't hit a shot.

653
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, that doesn't happen. All that off the barrier.

654
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 1: It's pretty close. Like more times than Knut comes down

655
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: like a final rack, here we go. Can you do it?

656
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: Can you win it or not? And obviously Booker didn't

657
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: tonight in the end, but the dunk contest is like

658
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: the ultimate high or the ultimate low, and it was

659
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: like tonight was like a oh, we had a chance

660
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: damn all right, another event made its return to us

661
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: here tonight. The Shooting Stars is back in our life.

662
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 3: What was that an event?

663
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: Eleven year hiatus? Wow, yep, long, it's been that long.

664
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,720
Speaker 1: And you know, after Chris Paul and Wheman Yama ruined

665
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 1: the skills competition completely broke it, didn't take it seriously

666
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 1: at the shooting spots in last year's event. They're just

667
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: like throwing the balls because they knew, oh, this is

668
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: just the time thing. Get them out of the way. Anyway,

669
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: we had the Shooting Stars and we had all these

670
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: teams and he had seven spots to shoot from, and

671
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: then we learned tonight. I swear we didn't know this.

672
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: A celebrity passer was incorporated to all these teams who

673
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: played like a sort of important part, like not like

674
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: you got to hit the shots, like those are the

675
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: most important part, but like you could sort of screw

676
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: up bad passes or where you put them. And we

677
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: saw a couple of hilarious passes, especially from Drew ski

678
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 1: H to Scottie Barnes. One in particular sailed like ten

679
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 1: feet over his head and I don't appear to hit somebody.

680
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,959
Speaker 1: I didn't hit Jason Richro and so yeah, we had

681
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 1: all these passers, these celebrity passers, and Rick Brunson for

682
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 1: Team Nicks, who was the star of the night to

683
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: us as he helped his son and his team get

684
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: the win. Like I can pass, he had the most

685
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: zip on his passes. Assistant coach right there.

686
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, we brought player. Yeah when and when you mentioned

687
00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 2: like a a practice pitcher, like a batting practice the

688
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 2: home run derby, Yeah, he was your guy. You brought

689
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 2: him up, You brought that position to groove it. Yeah there,

690
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 2: Jesus figure. He was a great Blue Jays one way

691
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: back when he was fantastic. Unfortunately, some of the things

692
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 2: on social media were, as you said, Drew Ski throwing

693
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: it into the front row. Yeah, we did not expect

694
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: a celebrity passer. We just thought I just personally thought

695
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: there would be a rack at each spot so they

696
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,440
Speaker 2: could just go to a rack and shoot it, which

697
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 2: makes sense.

698
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: Well, I thought they were going to do the whole

699
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: like you got one ball between your team, that's like

700
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: just hustle them, and that's how they used to do

701
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: it until they got to the half court shot and

702
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: then they could just pull a bunch of balls. Maybe

703
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 1: I'm misremembering it, but I.

704
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 3: Don't remember having a passer involved at all.

705
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: No, no, but I'm saying you rebounded your own shot

706
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: to get it to your other buddy, and it was

707
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 1: more of a dance.

708
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: Like that bounced off though, what would they do? I

709
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 3: just got a free ball.

710
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: Maybe, yeah, that's why I think the racks solves it.

711
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: But you want seven racks out there? Then we got

712
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: coach saying, oh, what's.

713
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 2: I think the NBA can afford seven racks to put

714
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: out there. So yeah, but I will say Jalen Brunson

715
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 2: and the Rick Brunson relationship that was great. Oh yeah, yeah,

716
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 2: because Jalen Brunson got the mic before he went for

717
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 2: the first round and said I'm not happy right now.

718
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 2: But it all came back around to explain itself. He

719
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 2: just that's his thing with his dad. He just he's

720
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 2: just the jokey thing with his dad.

721
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,800
Speaker 1: Is an upset to be at the Shooting Stars event

722
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: or to be at All Star Weekend. It was more

723
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: I just have to do this with my dad.

724
00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, dad. And honestly, it's good that Drewski wasn't there

725
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 2: for the second round because he was horrendous. Rick Brunson

726
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 2: was the guy who are the other passed Anthony Anderson?

727
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: It was okay. Actually two chains and two Chains was

728
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: yeah fine. His team obviously didn't make it.

729
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,840
Speaker 2: The Yeah yeah those three were good. Yeah yeah, I

730
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 2: mean Drew Sky kind of I think he kind of

731
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 2: wanted the moment for himself when he threw it out

732
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 2: into the front row or.

733
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: Was he making a social media moment with that, Oh

734
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 1: you're throwing out there?

735
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 2: No, I like, I don't know, but.

736
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: I'm with it.

737
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 3: Did it for the for the memes?

738
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 2: Sell afterwards was definitely?

739
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, it's like, okay.

740
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:39,879
Speaker 2: But what we didn't like is that the seventh spot

741
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 2: wasn't at mid court. Yeah, that's kind of weird.

742
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: The best part about the Old Shooting Stars competition was

743
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: Chris bosh inevitably hitting a half court shot.

744
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 3: That was fun, It was exciting.

745
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: So then they take that best part out of this

746
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: and have them shoot like just a deep three that

747
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,319
Speaker 1: Corey mcgetty props to him. He was splashing off his

748
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:00,320
Speaker 1: one legged deep balls. But come on, man, go to

749
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 1: half court. What are we doing? We see these shots

750
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: that long every night.

751
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, from the logo, but I got to give some

752
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 3: credit to Corey mcgetty. Like you said, he was Chris

753
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 3: Bosh esque in this one. And as he kept making

754
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 3: he made three in a row in the finals, and

755
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 3: after he made the second one, hit the fist pound.

756
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 3: After he hit the third one, he's strutting it off

757
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 3: as the ball is in the air. He was feeling

758
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 3: it like that was one of the hottest shooting nights

759
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 3: of Corey mcgetty's career.

760
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's funny is they lose, they lose. He was awesome.

761
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,439
Speaker 1: Did Allen Houston hit that many shots for the Team Nicks? Yeah,

762
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

763
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:36,919
Speaker 3: I don't know who.

764
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: I mean, Towns was hitting a lot of the one.

765
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: I think it was the NBA guys, the NBA All

766
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: Stars doing the heavy lifting for them. I don't remember

767
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: Alan Ruson hitting a ton maybe, but I.

768
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:47,919
Speaker 3: Gotta go back and check.

769
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 2: And Scottie Barnes also not hitting shots. No, I will

770
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 2: just say all in all.

771
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: Entertaining, it's better than the skill competition, not a question.

772
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 1: It's just been.

773
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 3: Was good.

774
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. The celebrity passing and the celebrity.

775
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,240
Speaker 3: Passers are going to be that big of an influence

776
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 3: on the scores. They need to be on the head

777
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 3: shots with the other guys. So it's got to say

778
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 3: Team All Stars plus Drew Ski.

779
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: Right. Well, they handed Rick Brunton a Victor Solomon. Yeah,

780
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: it was the victor to the Victor goes the Solomon.

781
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: You know, we came up with that's our new slogan.

782
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: Everybody gets a Solomon. Yeah, you're right, it's important. And

783
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: I don't think we even knew Rick Brunson was going

784
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: to be on this team, No, until like this announced it. Yeah,

785
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 1: which is still why was there even a Team Nicks

786
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: to be good with? Not a Team Clippers? What they won?

787
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 1: But they won? Yeah, team Clippers? Why they are Team

788
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 1: Clippers to be.

789
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 3: Kawhi Hardman zubats but you.

790
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 1: Know Brent Berry or Kawhi Harden and Corey mcgetty. No, wonderful?

791
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:00,760
Speaker 3: Done it interesting?

792
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: Probably not? I mean, I don't who knows, who cares?

793
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: What else do we have? Tonight? We had Ludacrous performing

794
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 1: stand up Turn on Mike. It was on in some formats.

795
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: Apparently some local affiliates heard the Ludicrous concert. We did not.

796
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:20,919
Speaker 1: I don't know about you out there. We were watching

797
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: on Peacock here in the Classic Factory and for us,

798
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 1: we legit could not hear Ludacris rapping like it was

799
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: just his mic was not on. It would every once

800
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: in a while like cut in for a second stand

801
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 1: and but for the most party couldn't hear a thing.

802
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: And it became sort of a sort of funny. But

803
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: I guess other people were hearing it, and in arena

804
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: people were hearing it. We have people like on the

805
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 1: scene were saying, oh, yeah, it was great. You could

806
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 1: hear him.

807
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 3: You could hear him.

808
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: Yep. You were disappointed. You like music, your grand hill

809
00:37:55,840 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: about it, and this was disappointing. This was disappointed for you.

810
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 2: You know, you know what The good thing about it

811
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 2: was it wasn't super long. The NBA can mess up

812
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 2: on Saturday nights quite often, eating time for no reason,

813
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 2: like their task mil is telling us soliloquy for no reason.

814
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 2: But he did four tight songs. No, we didn't hear

815
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 2: it was three or four. Yeah, but I looked at

816
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 2: the clock. I just checked. I was checking that clock,

817
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 2: like like I'm I'm keeping the time here. It's like

818
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 2: I'm Matt Austin or I'm Tim Frank or Paul Benedict.

819
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 2: I just want to beat a time here.

820
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: My favorite thing is you keep time on things more

821
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: than anyone, but somehow we're always later. Make it make sense,

822
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 1: Well you are on timing for everything.

823
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, not great at not great at the beginning. Well,

824
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 2: it's all about the ending. It's all about the close.

825
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: The thing took three hours still, and you were like

826
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: when we when you first showed up, you were like,

827
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: this is gonna be fun.

828
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

829
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that they had a three hour, three

830
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 2: hour block here in the middle of these Winter Olympics.

831
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 2: I was surprised by that on a regular Saturday night

832
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,479
Speaker 2: nothing else going on. Yeah, the Olympics Saturday, eight three hours.

833
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 1: This is actually this is why they put it at five,

834
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: because primetime in Milan eight o'clock. Of course, I've been

835
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: watching the Olympics, and right now there are no Olympics

836
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: going on because of the time difference. Like it all happened.

837
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 3: This is editing.

838
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,399
Speaker 1: I don't think anything is actually live right now. It's

839
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: like the middle of the night and it'll.

840
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's done after six probably.

841
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,240
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah right right, it's like midnight.

842
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm just saying they had nothing else to show.

843
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyways, didn't need too much time. Luda didn't need

844
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 2: too much time, even though we didn't hear it. That's particular.

845
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 2: I guess the MIC's sort of working as as we're

846
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:51,439
Speaker 2: going through, uh, we're asking I was asking JD what's

847
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 2: going on in the truck? What's happening? Why is that

848
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 2: one particular mic off?

849
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 3: Anyway, you said busting with the boys, busting with the boys.

850
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: I didn't understand what you're saying with the boys they're

851
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: having trouble routing. Do you care to explain what happened.

852
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 2: In all like that, I honestly don't know.

853
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 4: But if it's but it's coming off the board, the soundboard,

854
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,359
Speaker 4: So if it's busted to the truck and they're hearing

855
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 4: it in the truck, and they're hearing it in the arena,

856
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,880
Speaker 4: but it's not going out to the live feed, or

857
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 4: there's a mix that goes to the live feed, it

858
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:31,800
Speaker 4: could be going through like a SMP person standards and practice,

859
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,719
Speaker 4: and that person was just leaning on the button the

860
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 4: whole time.

861
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 2: Who knows. Okay, It's like when we were doing Worst

862
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 2: of the Week on Friday and we could hear what

863
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 2: I was calling the Worst of the Week nominee the

864
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 2: NBA broadcast the voiceover guy saying Joem Brown making his

865
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 2: first career All Star game. We could hear that, but

866
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,280
Speaker 2: people watching couldn't. That's right, it was incorrectly busted.

867
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 4: Thanks for bringing that up.

868
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: Okay, with the boys, Will and Taylor hear it tonight.

869
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,360
Speaker 1: I need to know now.

870
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,840
Speaker 3: Could they hear ludicrous in the bus?

871
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: Uh? The other thing with the Ludacrous performance is there

872
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: was a small I don't know, at least for like

873
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: a minute or two, where we weren't sure if he

874
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: was wearing the fake big arms or he was jack

875
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 1: because he was jacked, And I guess I didn't realize

876
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:29,880
Speaker 1: how jacked Ludacris had become.

877
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 2: Wasn't he jacked in when he did Fast and Furious?

878
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I just don't think of him as like

879
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,879
Speaker 3: a I think a doctor Dre and Busta Rhymes and

880
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 3: Timbaland as guys who got like notoriously very strong and muscular.

881
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 3: But I guess Ludacros has as well. And he was

882
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 3: showing off the guns like he'd been working. I'm sure

883
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 3: he got a nice pump in right before the show started,

884
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 3: and he was he was arms forward, really huge.

885
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 1: I was working for anyway. Unfortunately we couldn't hear it,

886
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: but also probably would have hit a lot better in Atlanta,

887
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 1: maybe than Ellie, I don't know.

888
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:16,439
Speaker 3: Yeah whatever, he makes a crowd friendly rap or yeah,

889
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 3: these are not new songs.

890
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: We were here. I told Nora, like when I was

891
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 1: heading over here, I'm like, She's like, what else is happening.

892
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 1: Ludacris is performing Ludicris what that's all they could get?

893
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,320
Speaker 1: And I took offense to it for Luda. I was like,

894
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:31,839
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? That's not a bad get.

895
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, Nora, you gotta remember, like they're not paying

896
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: top dollar. We're not getting Kendrick Lamar. I mean, he's

897
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: already done it. First off, We're not getting someone like

898
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,439
Speaker 1: that level. You got to go like a guy. It's

899
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: like maybe needs some money a little bit, like to

900
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 1: do the performance.

901
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 2: You're saying Ludinese money.

902
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 1: I'm saying you did it for money throwbacks. You're right,

903
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: a lot of these people keep showing up. Anthony Anderson,

904
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: he's been at one hundred of these now. Queen Latifa

905
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: always there. Always, Kevin are incredibly not there, but usually

906
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 1: they all are. And I'm like, just tell their agents,

907
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,360
Speaker 1: like I want to be an NBA All Star Weekend.

908
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: I like being around the guys, I like I like

909
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: the jackal media. I'm saying I would hell, I wanted

910
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: to be in the celebrity game forever.

911
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 2: I gave what Nora is saying, though he hasn't made

912
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 2: a hit for a while. It's just was shocked NBC's

913
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 2: going with the old heads, John Tesh, Tomorrow, Lenny Kravitz.

914

00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 4: You think my kids are excited about that?

935
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: You fucking who? What song are you talking about?

936
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:31,759
Speaker 4: This is the problem. Like this, they're being smart about

937
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 4: the celebrity game, which nobody watches because it's the celebrity game,

938
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,479
Speaker 4: but it's it's influences and they're trying to go young.

939
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 4: Like I watched a bit of that broadcast. I was like,

940
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 4: who who are these people? And that's how it should be.

941
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 4: I'm fifty five years old. I should not be into

942
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 4: this at all, right, and this is the problem.

943
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:48,920
Speaker 2: There is no problem.

944
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: It's cringe. It's cringe.

945
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 4: You skeets were talking about talking about uh, you know,

946
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,479
Speaker 4: uh Snoop Dogg being the Olympics guy. I don't mind

947
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 4: that because Snoop Dogg is perennially cool, right, Like he's

948
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,640
Speaker 4: just a dude. Everybody likes taking him, not cool though

949
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 4: incredibly true.

950
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 2: And that cool exactly exactly. That's my point.

951
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 4: Bring him back next Well, he'll be obviously part of

952
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 4: La Olympics.

953
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: But all the dads, all dads are super happy.

954
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:23,360
Speaker 3: Oh look Snoop dog A snooping around during the Winter Olympics.

955
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:24,240
Speaker 3: They are very happy.

956
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 4: They kids are like, I'm not even watching it because

957
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 4: who cares?

958
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 2: Right, Like, this is the problem.

959
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 4: They can't watch sports, right, but there are kids playing.

960
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 3: So why would they chase young audiences? Well that's the

961
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:36,040
Speaker 3: problem that they're caught.

962
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 1: They're caught in between two paths.

963
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 3: Right, It's like, we want a younger audience, but guess

964
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 3: what they're No kid is tuning into All Star Saturday night,

965
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:43,239
Speaker 3: I know.

966
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 4: And all the kids who are playing in the All

967
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 4: Star Game don't want to be there because it's cringe.

968
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 2: They don't like it.

969
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 4: And that's that's the main problem. Right, So get artists

970
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 4: that they listen to and I'm not even like, I

971
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 4: don't even know who they are. We don't know who

972
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:58,959
Speaker 4: they are, right, I.

973
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: Think I want to say a K pop band performed

974
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:06,960
Speaker 1: during the either Celebrity Game or Rising Stars Game. I

975
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: want to call them Cortis. But I don't know if that's.

976
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,919
Speaker 2: What there was a soger boy in the Celebrity Game

977
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 2: was not what what who? A Korean pop band? So yeah,

978
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 2: maybe there was.

979
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:30,760
Speaker 1: That's fine.

980
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that guy's a name.

981
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: That guy's a ballhog.

982
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 3: I saw Keenan Allen block a shot.

983
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that doesn't pass. If he's in a boy band,

984
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,800
Speaker 1: I'd be shocked because he's not sure in the mic. Okay,

985
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:43,279
Speaker 1: so j D.

986
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 3: I think if if you think Playboy Cardi, if he's

987
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 3: the halftime act at the All Star Game, does that

988
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 3: change anything if he if it's Playboy Cardi instead of ludicrous.

989
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,240
Speaker 4: If it's two minutes and you put it on TikTok,

990
00:46:54,280 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 4: I guess I don't know like that, that's that's exactly right.

991
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 4: And look, little Chris is a big start, like he's

992
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 4: in ten or many many and that's where kids know

993
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 4: I'm from, probably right right right, you know?

994
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they they are selling these tickets to

00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 1: people in theory to show up to these events, and

996
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: they do want to like give you a show, like,

997
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: you know, a three hour show, So we got to

998
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,759
Speaker 1: have a bunch of filler. Yeah, And while we're in

999
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 1: commercial break here watching on TV, like we've been at

Speaker 3: But yeah, that is why though I agree j D, like,

1008
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 3: I think it was a good idea to do this

1009
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 3: two hundred influencer thing because it's like, if you're gonna

1010
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 3: reach a younger audience, it's going to be via social

1011
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 3: media and these people who are just there being at

1012
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 3: the events.

00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 1: like we're going to roll around eyes at it and

1015
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: like who cares? But you're right, like that's the whole point, Younger.

1016
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:05,920
Speaker 2: Now we know who Dylan Wang is. Apparently he's a

00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would It's the only reason we're getting John Tesh.

1052
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, we're back on NBC. People

00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, we get him.

1056
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 3: That's it.

1057
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,359
Speaker 1: Don't worry. We're not getting John next year.

1058
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,280
Speaker 4: Okay, and we get John Tesh.

1059
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: I love it, and incredibly I was right. The K

1060
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: pop band was called Cortus.

1061
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 3: Cortus. I love Cortus.

1062
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:11,959
Speaker 1: Can you name any member of Courtus in the five

1063
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 1: people in courtis pee wee?

1064
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:16,120
Speaker 3: No?

1065
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: But honestly, there's two like super American names, and then

1066
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 1: a bunch of Korean names. But Rick Mark, there's Martin

1067
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 1: and James, and then there's Korean names Kim, we got

1068
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 1: a Kim and ken Yo. Okay, where were we a

1069
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,480
Speaker 1: Friday night? Let's go to Friday night. I don't think

1070
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,399
Speaker 1: this is going to take as long as Saturday night.

1071
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 1: But we did have seventy six ers VJ Edgecomb getting

1072
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 1: named MVP and the Rising Stars winning it all for

1073
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:48,040
Speaker 1: Team Vince and VJ. Edgecomb did take the game or

1074
00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 1: a couple of games that he played semi seriously competition. Uh.

1075
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:55,960
Speaker 1: And he was awesome in the semi final game where

1076
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 1: he scored the final ten points. I think it was

1077
00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 1: to get the victory for Team Vince. And then he

1078
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 1: clinched the final with two big free throws after he

1079
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 1: attacked who wasn't Donevan Klingon. I think he put the

1080
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,440
Speaker 1: pressure on clinging at the rim. He hacked on the

1081
00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: art was definite foul and he hit two free throws

1082
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: to hit the target score. But anyway, any other takeaways

1083
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 1: from the Rising Stars game.

1084
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 2: Looks good, VJ looked good. He gave it to camp Spencer,

1085
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 2: got lots of separation to score ten straight. You called it,

1086
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 2: Skeatsy said, Vjachkin was going to do it.

1087
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 1: I did.

1088
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 2: This was the one I got right, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

1089
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,840
Speaker 2: And that in general they all did care. I thought,

1090
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 2: yeah about about the the shorter, you know, tournament style games,

1091
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 2: the shorter games, maybe that helps. I think it does.

1092
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 2: In general, it kind of does. Instead of going four

1093
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 2: quarters on Friday night and Rising Stars, it kind of

1094
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,879
Speaker 2: lasts a long time you.

1095
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 3: Get enough moments if they're going to the target score

1096
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 3: and it's close, like they're going to try hard for

1097
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 3: those four possessions and that makes it exciting for at

1098
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 3: least five or six minutes there. And you know, I

1099
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 3: think it's funny to see if you're a pickup basketball

1100
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 3: player that even NBA guys where it's like, we don't

1101
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 3: have to get a three pointer here, but if we do,

1102
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 3: we win, they're gonna take a three pointer every time.

1103
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,560
Speaker 3: Just like when you're playing pick up and you're playing

1104
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,320
Speaker 3: to nine and you have seven, nobody's taking a layup,

1105
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:17,440
Speaker 3: you're only taking two. And even NBA guys are like,

1106
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 3: I'm only shooting threes right now?

1107
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 2: Does that still happen? Everybody shoots the two and you

1108
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:22,400
Speaker 2: need to.

1109
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:23,399
Speaker 1: Generally in our run?

1110
00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, come on, walking off with a game

1111
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 3: winner is so much cooler when it's a jump shot.

1112
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to play defense, like, oh we scored. Oh man,

1113
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:33,960
Speaker 1: now we got to get another stuff too.

1114
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1115
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 3: The other thing I think though, is you said VJ

1116
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,439
Speaker 3: want it by going to the free throw line. Can't

1117
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 3: win it at the free throw line.

1118
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,359
Speaker 1: You KNOWE scored ended there.

1119
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,960
Speaker 3: Jamal Crawford said, you should have to win by two

1120
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 3: if it's at the free throw line fair enough, or

1121
00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 3: you should do it like pick up where you can

1122
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:51,399
Speaker 3: just keep hacking the guy. Yeah, every time they try

1123
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 3: and score inside.

1124
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 2: I'm totally with.

1125
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 3: Climactic.

1126
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you get a foul, it's your ball, you

1127
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 2: get the ball back. Yeah, you know, Yeah, I totally

1128
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:07,399
Speaker 2: agree with that. Although you know, VJ respects the game.

1129
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 2: I did like how he got to the arena with

1130
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 2: his Vince Carter throwback T shirt because Vince drafted him.

1131
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 2: And he said, when I was drafted by Vince, I

1132
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 2: remembered I had a shirt, so, you know, paying some

1133
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:22,759
Speaker 2: love to the the OG. So that was pretty cool.

1134
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 1: He also talked about getting a chance to talk to

1135
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Yeah a couple of nights prior or

1136
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 1: something like that, and how that meant a lot to him.

1137
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,800
Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty cool. And they talked about

1138
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 1: like set the tone for the weekend, like or at

1139
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 1: least for the All Star Game, like who knows what

1140
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 1: actually translates, but that's not probably not which is But

1141
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 1: here's my thing. That's so funny. It's like, this is

1142
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: the game that I actually don't give a shit if

1143
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 1: any play plays defense or tries. This is the one

1144
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: where they should just be going crazy and doing insane

1145
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 1: eli oops and in st darncan and doing O lady like.

1146
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 1: This is the one I truly don't care at all.

1147
00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 1: Like they're just a bunch of kids put on a show.

1148
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 1: So it's funny, Like the All Star Game is one

1149
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 1: I'd like to see them, like the best of the

1150
00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,960
Speaker 1: best compete for a little bit. I don't care about

1151
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 1: this one.

1152
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 3: But they did. But they did, they did, they did,

1153
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:10,399
Speaker 3: So you don't want the kids to care.

1154
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,759
Speaker 1: I mean, I just don't. I've never really truly cared

1155
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,759
Speaker 1: all that much about the rising stars, especially like once

1156
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: it went into this tournament thing. I get the understanding

1157
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 1: behind it, but yeah, I think with this class we

1158
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: have coming in next year, maybe go back to a

1159
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: nice old rookie versus sophomores. Yeah, I'm just saying we

1160
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,480
Speaker 1: could have a good one. Yep, if they take it seriously,

1161
00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:30,759
Speaker 1: and maybe it would be a good game.

1162
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:34,560
Speaker 2: But taking into account the amount of talent coming into

1163
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 2: the league, Adam Silver knows there's tanking is hot right

1164
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 2: now in this particular season, and there's a reason for that.

1165
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 2: They're going to be really good going up against this

1166
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:45,720
Speaker 2: current rookie class.

1167
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be a game, sense be a good game.

1168
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: Any other thoughts on rising Stars.

1169
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:53,399
Speaker 2: I did see Dylan Harper hit a game winner over

1170
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 2: his bro and that.

1171
00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 1: That was a moment. There wasn't a lot of like

1172
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,399
Speaker 1: sick highlights though from either of the games. No, there

1173
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,839
Speaker 1: was that that was a memorable moment. The Jumper VJ

1174
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:07,399
Speaker 1: like little run where he hit a bunch of threes.

1175
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 1: Red Shepherd crossed somebody over and hit a three that

1176
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,479
Speaker 1: was pretty Bozella's had a couple okay plays and maybe

1177
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,919
Speaker 1: one nice dunk, but nothing like crazy memorable. I don't

1178
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 1: think that's fine. I like the jerseys. I love the jerseys.

1179
00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:19,360
Speaker 3: Look they were okay, like it.

1180
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 1: I like the colors all right. Then we had the

1181
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:29,359
Speaker 1: Celebrity Game. Rome Flynn earns his second straight MVP. Teamiannis

1182
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: wins the Celebrity Game and a lot of people upset online.

1183
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,040
Speaker 1: How did Taco Fall not win MVP? That guy had

1184
00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:39,360
Speaker 1: twenty points, twenty one rebounds, five blocks, robbed guy was shafted,

1185
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 1: and Rome Flynn got it done. I think he had

1186
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:42,080
Speaker 1: seventeen points.

1187
00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 3: Or something.

1188
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 1: He looks like he was okay, Yeah he got moves,

1189
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 1: Yeah he got finishes. Yeah. Schaum's rough Night, over five.

1190
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: I want to say, from the field, I think all

1191
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: three point attempts fell in love with the three ball.

1192
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 3: Just want to see one go down.

1193
00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, but take it to the rack, man, Just get

1194
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,000
Speaker 1: an easy one. It's right, see the ball go through

1195
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: the rim. I'll get off your phone, man. Also, the

1196
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:10,280
Speaker 1: funniest clips from Shams in this game were like, anytime

1197
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: somebody else had the ball, Shams was doing the uh

1198
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: wacky waving inflatable arm filing too. Man, Like I'm over, Man,

1199
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,759
Speaker 1: I'm over. And there's so many clips here. I'm like,

1200
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm over, and people like, yeah, well you just missed

1201
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:25,279
Speaker 1: a three. I'm not gonna pass it to you again.

1202
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, rough night, rough night. Lots of shots of

1203
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: him on his phone. People were clowning him for that.

1204
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,320
Speaker 1: I don't know why that's funny to me. He should

1205
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:33,480
Speaker 1: have been playing with doing bets.

1206
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he should have gone Ben Simmons mouth had

1207
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:36,200
Speaker 3: it in his pockets.

1208
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1209
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 3: Maybe he was gonna like make a shot, get a

1210
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 3: tweet off or something like that.

1211
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,840
Speaker 1: Maybe, honestly, really shattered his confidence though. I was talking

1212
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 1: a lot of shit to the point where it almost

1213
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:52,239
Speaker 1: became like is this a bit like is he joking here?

1214
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,320
Speaker 1: It's like he legit upset with him for all the reporters.

1215
00:56:55,760 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 2: I like the pregame interview. Richard Jefferson said he's hey, yes,

1216
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 2: I saw the rosters. They're not fair, basically saying, yes,

1217
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 2: you got a great ROSTERA said you know it's not fair,

1218
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:14,719
Speaker 2: chumps he cannot hoop. Yeah. Then Mark Jones was also

1219
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:19,200
Speaker 2: part of Mark Jones also said we know that did

1220
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,919
Speaker 2: he mishear him? Does he does?

1221
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:27,400
Speaker 1: He doesn't suck, but yeah, you couldn't have.

1222
00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 2: But they also also production they cut away from Jannis

1223
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 2: trash talk and chomps. They cut away to show the

1224
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 2: the little practice. What are you doing? Show the former

00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 2: was also eating popcorn as he was saying that it

1228
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 2: was kind of funny, had a box of popcorn?

1229
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: Any other memorable moments from the celebrity game.

1230
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,280
Speaker 3: Keenan Allen had a great game.

1231
00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know who he was, but he's a

1232
00:57:58,680 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 1: football player.

1233
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:00,720

Speaker 1: it that high or it was getting rejected and it

1241
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 1: somehow dropped. That thing went so damn high.

1242
00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:27,360
Speaker 2: It was incredible. Yeah, there's several angles of the Matt

1243
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 2: shot from the opposite end to see how high he

1244
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 2: had to put it over Taco Fall. It was great.

1245
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:37,240
Speaker 2: I didn't think I'd come into this celebrity game appreciating

1246
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 2: Matt Ishbia's basketball game, but he went and ripped a

1247
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 2: rebound from Taco Falls hands.

1248
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 1: He also picked up Sham's ninety four feet one time,

1249
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 1: bumped him at a bound.

1250
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:49,919
Speaker 3: Yeah. I saw him throw behind the back pass wasn't

1251
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 3: converted miss lamp by whoe first teammate was. But Matt

1252
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 3: hbo I quitted himself pretty well.

1253
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 2: I think he did. He did. We thought we'd we'd

1254
00:58:58,080 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 2: see Shams hit some shots. That's what I thought.

1255
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh yeah, I mean Jeremy Lynn also hit an

1256
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 1: eight point shot in this game because they had this

1257
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 1: thing where you could like double points. I don't really

1258
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:15,360
Speaker 1: still understand how it actually worked, but once it was activated,

1259
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 1: every shot for whatever particular player or team or something

1260
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 1: was doubled and you hit a four point ruffles shot

1261
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 1: and that meant it was eight points. And that was

1262
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: basically the game. I think that wrapped it up for.

1263
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 4: It was a dice rolled, Yeah, and glow Reala each

1264
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 4: rolled the dice.

1265
00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:35,440
Speaker 1: Look at the old guy over here like in the

1266
00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 1: kids game. That's right, Yeah, that's where I live.

1267
00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 4: I live with the kids.

1268
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 3: They rolled, it was double time for jerial and hit

1269
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 3: the four point ruffles shot. Yeah, obviously they were.

1270
00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 4: They were inflatable dice, so they were. They rolled for

1271
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 4: a very long time, as seem it was like okay, ladies.

1272
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,640
Speaker 4: First to Gloriala says, now you go first. He rolls

1273
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 4: the dice and then she kicks his dice. When it

1274
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 4: lands on eight, she kicks it. It rolls a little

1275
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 4: more and more and more and lands on eight again.

1276
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,959
Speaker 4: So in your face, Gloriala, I guess she always having fun.

1277
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 4: I saw, yes, I'll bringing some energy to this.

1278
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 1: What a game? What a game game, celebrity game. Uh,

1279
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 1: that's all I got from the All Star weekend festivities.

1280
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:31,040
Speaker 1: We can pivot here to Chris Paul real quick if

1281
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 1: you want.

1282
01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's pivot.

1283
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 1: Finally, before we go, Chris Paul announced that he has

1284
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:38,600
Speaker 1: officially retired. In a post on Instagram, Chris Paul wrote,

1285
01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: in part, this is it. After over twenty one years,

1286
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm stepping away from basketball. As I write this, it's

1287
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:46,200
Speaker 1: hard to really know what to feel. But for once

1288
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 1: most people would be surprised. I don't have the answer, lol.

1289
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:54,200
Speaker 1: But mostly I'm filled with so much joy and gratitude.

1290
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 1: While this chapter of being an NBA player is done,

1291
01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: the game of basketball will forever be ingrained in the

1292
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: d of my life. And he went on to say

1293
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 1: a lot more, but that's the part we'll share with

1294
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 1: everybody here on the pod. Sort of weird. Chris Paul

1295
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 1: ends this way via Instagram, Like this past summer, he

1296
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:16,480
Speaker 1: returns to LA he joins the organization. That's one day

1297
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,040
Speaker 1: I assume still going to retire his jersey number. I

1298
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: would hope so that. Oh yeah, and then he announced

1299
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 1: earlier in the season that this would be his last year. Okay,

1300
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: here we go to the Swan Song, and we don't

1301
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: really get a retirement tour. Instead he gets told to

1302
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 1: leave and go home and then gets traded and waived

1303
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: by the Raptors. So just sort of just an odd

1304
01:01:37,200 --> 01:01:39,640
Speaker 1: ending to Chris Paul's incredible NBA career.

1305
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 3: Definitely, the going out with the Clippers in your last

1306
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 3: season would have been perfect, Like if he would have

1307
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:46,720
Speaker 3: stuck around the whole time. Obviously they had their friction

1308
01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:49,680
Speaker 3: and got sent home. So yeah, bummer end to the

1309
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,240
Speaker 3: way things went. I do really like that he included

1310
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 3: loll in his little closet tier. You can tell he's

1311
01:01:55,200 --> 01:02:00,160
Speaker 3: a millennial for that one. But yeah, I mean we

1312
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 3: were talking at trade deadline and even a little earlier,

1313
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,439
Speaker 3: like would he ever get bought out, would a team

1314
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 3: pick him up or anything like that, and I guess

1315
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 3: not a lot of what he talks about further on

1316
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 3: in this post is that he has been away from

1317
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:16,160
Speaker 3: his family for basically six years after his first run

1318
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 3: with the Clippers ended, and that's why he was really

1319
01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 3: going back, was to be closer to them and spend

1320
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,040
Speaker 3: more time with them. And apparently if he's not going

1321
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 3: to sign with the Lakers, there's no other teams in LA,

1322
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 3: so time was up, I guess.

1323
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,640
Speaker 1: So, yeah, just a weird ending to his career for.

1324
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 2: Sure, very weird ending. Does it count for the Toronto

1325
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,240
Speaker 2: Raptors to be his last basketball team? Will that ever

1326
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 2: be a trivia question?

1327
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:41,200
Speaker 1: Was traded to.

1328
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:45,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he never played for them, And I don't

1329
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 2: know if it was just because there wasn't a team

1330
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:49,960
Speaker 2: in LA that signed, because I feel like if there

1331
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:51,919
Speaker 2: was a team that was on the cusp of winning

1332
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 2: a championship and Chris Paul could be on the floor

1333
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 2: to play for them, to have a role, he would

1334
01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:57,120
Speaker 2: have done it.

1335
01:02:57,400 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 1: If he would have done it, But by all reports,

1336
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,000
Speaker 1: no name was calling and asking.

1337
01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:02,919
Speaker 2: Oh nobody did or else see would have done? I think,

1338
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,440
Speaker 2: you know, in my eyes, there was a chance that

1339
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:08,600
Speaker 2: Minnesota Timberwolves would have gone and got him if they

1340
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 2: didn't get ioed Asumu, maybe just to have somebody out there.

1341
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 2: But he also wanted to be playing. Chris Paul's not

1342
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 2: a guy to go sit on a bench or sit

1343
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 2: in a locker room to be a you know, raw,

1344
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,800
Speaker 2: raw guy. So that that's.

1345
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,040
Speaker 1: He was the opposite of he was sitting on the

1346
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 1: bench for the Clippers. Yeah, and when I was abroad.

1347
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, an ideal world, he was going

1348
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 2: to come off the bench for a team that was

1349
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 2: going for a championship, So.

1350
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 1: I thought that I didn't start six and twenty one.

1351
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so that was not possible, I suppose anywhere

1352
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:43,960
Speaker 2: in the league. So it is odd just to see

1353
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,240
Speaker 2: him go out like this right here, right now. But

1354
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 2: when we all look back, we'll say, well, what a career.

1355
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 2: I can't believe he has eleven million followers on Instagram.

1356
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 2: Seeing that post on the double check for I wouldn't

1357
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 2: think he's an eleven million type of guy.

1358
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 1: But it seems oh high, Okay, that's a lower Yeah

1359
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 1: you thought he would have lower Yeah, oh yeah.

1360
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, well why, I mean, no real reason I did,

1361
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:10,840
Speaker 2: just since we're on the Clippers. I did think this

1362
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 2: was a note from this weekend Kawhi Leonard doing that

1363
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,040
Speaker 2: interview with Chris haynes Man. Sure if you guys saw that.

1364
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,480
Speaker 2: But he was asked, do you feel like you have

1365
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:22,040
Speaker 2: enough time to get something together in the postseason? Is

1366
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:23,959
Speaker 2: it too late in the season basically, and he said,

1367
01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:27,280
Speaker 2: hopefully we do. Obviously right now with the roster, we're

1368
01:04:27,280 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 2: not contenders, just calling it out. We ain't going to

1369
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 2: be good. Essentially, we got a lot of young guys

1370
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,240
Speaker 2: that's learning. We want Darius to be healthy for the

1371
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:37,880
Speaker 2: second half. If he's there available for the second half,

1372
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 2: he is, but really need him to be ready to

1373
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 2: go next year. That's what this guy's thinking about looking

1374
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:45,200
Speaker 2: at So that's my mindset. Then you talked about Benedict

1375
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,240
Speaker 2: matherin the last two games. Okay, he kind of got

1376
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 2: it together, but looking for us to get a playoff

1377
01:04:50,760 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 2: berth and have some fun in the playoffs. He's got

1378
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 2: no aspiration, no real expectation for this team this season.

1379
01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 2: That was yeah, yeah, I know the.

1380
01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,880
Speaker 1: Right, but we're weird to hear somebody say, actually, but

1381
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:05,560
Speaker 1: one of the.

1382
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 2: Best players in the league last few months to say, okay,

1383
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:12,680
Speaker 2: you traded hard, you traded Zoobats, we ain't going to

1384
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,680
Speaker 2: do it. But he's already looking forward to next year

1385
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,840
Speaker 2: when he wants to be there. I suppose, you know,

1386
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 2: there was the talk about him leaving, possibly because they

1387
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 2: are not looking like they're going to be great, but

1388
01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:30,680
Speaker 2: maybe maybe next season is totally different before the trade deadline,

1389
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 2: but either way, he's already looking forward to next year.

1390
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 1: Back to Chris Paul. I want to know where do

1391
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 1: you rank him as when it comes to the greatest

1392
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 1: point guards of all time? Is he top five? Top three?

1393
01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:44,080
Speaker 3: Where do you have him top five?

1394
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 1: Okay, three, four or five? Yeah? I think most people

1395
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:47,840
Speaker 1: have them.

1396
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,400
Speaker 3: There now, Okay, I wouldn't happen to higher than for well, do.

1397
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 1: You consider Steph Curry point guard? For okay? If you do,

1398
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,240
Speaker 1: then obviously he is behind him.

1399
01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 3: So he's behind He's behind Staph Magic Johnson and Isaiah

1400
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:01,840
Speaker 3: Thomas guaranteed, and then Oscar Robertson, right, I just yeah,

1401
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 3: I don't really know how to judge Oscar Robertson, but

1402
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:08,080
Speaker 3: you haven't probably had a John Stockton, Yeah, yep, yeah.

1403
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:13,240
Speaker 1: Primarily exactly. Even with John Stockton, actually he made eleven

1404
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:15,959
Speaker 1: all NBA teams, Chris Paul did nine all defensive teams,

1405
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:18,919
Speaker 1: which is really pretty incredible when you remember the guy's

1406
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 1: six feet tall, like if that led the league and

1407
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 1: assist five times, in steals six times, and he ranked

1408
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:27,160
Speaker 1: second in NBA history in both of those categories. Assists

1409
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 1: over twelve thousand, five hundred and steals over twenty seven hundred.

1410
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 1: In retrospect, Chris Paul's NBA career I think can be

1411
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 1: summarized by like five moments or developments. I saw Sean

1412
01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:41,040
Speaker 1: Powell at NBA dot Com put together a great list.

1413
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 1: I included a different one here, though. The first one

1414
01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 1: is just his Rookie of the Year win. Like, he

1415
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:47,760
Speaker 1: comes into this league, he's the fourth pick overall, and

1416
01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:51,440
Speaker 1: he's basically asked to rescue a New Orleans franchise sort

1417
01:06:51,440 --> 01:06:54,040
Speaker 1: of right away because they were in a transition. They

1418
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 1: had previously located from Charlotte. Then Hurricane Katrina hits, and

1419
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 1: then there's suddenly playing games in like Oklahoma City, and

1420
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:05,800
Speaker 1: he's like seeing that franchise like through that pretty tumultuous time.

1421
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,720
Speaker 1: And he was elite right away, nearly a unanimous Rookie

1422
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:11,120
Speaker 1: of the Year winner, just awesome from the jump and

1423
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 1: helping them turn into a really good team too. That

1424
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:14,760
Speaker 1: was the thing with Chris Paul. Everywhere he went, the

1425
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:18,200
Speaker 1: team for the most part got really good, like way

1426
01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:20,680
Speaker 1: better than they were before the non trade to the

1427
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:24,360
Speaker 1: Lakers in twenty eleven. YEP, that's gonna come up anytime

1428
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,120
Speaker 1: we talk about Chris Paul. The league had temporary control

1429
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 1: of the Hornets, then Commissioner David Stern just shut down

1430
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:32,800
Speaker 1: the proposed deal that would a ship Chris Paul to

1431
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:36,360
Speaker 1: LA to team up with Kobe. Crazy. What a scenario,

1432
01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 1: yep for everyone involved. You know, how does that play out?

1433
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: Does he win there with Kobe? Obviously the trade after

1434
01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 1: that ended up working great for the Lakers. Like it's

1435
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 1: like a crazy sliding door moment. If the league said, no,

1436
01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 1: you can't do that trade Love City, Yeah, duh, He's

1437
01:07:53,640 --> 01:07:57,360
Speaker 1: gonna have his jersey retired. He eventually got back to La.

1438
01:07:57,440 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 1: It was only the Clippers, not the Lakers, and he

1439
01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 1: helped turn aleting stock of a franchise into Yeah, like, okay,

1440
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,680
Speaker 1: were are they a championship contender? They never made it there,

1441
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 1: but they were a good team that made some deep

1442
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:14,120
Speaker 1: runs and they were the joke of all franchises forever

1443
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:17,680
Speaker 1: until he sort of came with Blake and DeAndre Untimely

1444
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 1: injuries would be fourth on this list. Two notable ones

1445
01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,960
Speaker 1: in the postseason. Hamstring injury benched him for two games

1446
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 1: in the second round against Houston in twenty fifteen. Clippers

1447
01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:29,800
Speaker 1: blew a three one lead against against the Rockets, lost

1448
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 1: that series and then the Big One as a member

1449
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 1: of the Rockets, he pulled his hamstring again. Team was

1450
01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 1: up three to two on the Warriors in the twenty

1451
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,000
Speaker 1: eighteen Conference finals, and a lot of people think the

1452
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 1: Rockets would have won the title maybe if Chris Paul's

1453
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 1: hamstring doesn't fail him there. And then the final one

1454
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: is the twenty twenty one finals lost to the Bucks,

1455
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 1: where you know, everything did seem to fall in place

1456
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:53,439
Speaker 1: for Chris Paul and the Suns that year. They won

1457
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 1: fifty one games in a seventy two game shortened season.

1458
01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,400
Speaker 1: They beat the Lakers, they swept the Nuggets, then they

1459
01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 1: beat the Clip in the conference finals, and you think

1460
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:05,040
Speaker 1: he had a monster, monster game to help advance to

1461
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:09,240
Speaker 1: the finals. They're up two to zero against Milwaukee. Okay,

1462
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 1: you lose Game three, that happens, whatever, And then Game

1463
01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:16,599
Speaker 1: four was the Chris Middleton versus Devin Booker sort of shootout.

1464
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 1: They both had great games. Chris Paul did not have

1465
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:20,400
Speaker 1: a good Game four from what I remember, and didn't

1466
01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 1: have a great end of the series as the Bucks

1467
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:24,639
Speaker 1: came back and snatched what maybe would have been Chris

1468
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 1: Paul's lone championship. And instead he's on the list with

1469
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:31,680
Speaker 1: your Patrick Ewings, your Charles Barkley's your John Stockton's, you're

1470
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,240
Speaker 1: Cakarl Malon's and Chris Paul.

1471
01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 2: Those are like.

1472
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:37,720
Speaker 1: Maybe Reggie's in the mix too. But five or six

1473
01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:39,600
Speaker 1: guys that were elite guys that never won a championship.

1474
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,599
Speaker 2: Yep, Chris Paul, he was close, He was super close.

1475
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:47,439
Speaker 2: Those the only finals. Yeah, and that's why you know,

1476
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:49,600
Speaker 2: I have him a little higher than John stock Like,

1477
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:52,599
Speaker 2: there's many reasons what we can go through the whole list,

1478
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:56,160
Speaker 2: but there's the Steve Nash comparison. You know, Chris Paul

1479
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:57,439
Speaker 2: got to the final. Stevie didn't.

1480
01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:02,120
Speaker 1: Never did no. All right, we'll call it there. That's

1481
01:10:02,120 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 1: your All Star Saturday Night recap. Talked to a little

1482
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:11,439
Speaker 1: Chris Paul, talked a whole lot of Ludacris. That's right,

1483
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 1: that's right. Here's the fun thing. We're gonna do this
