24
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: We like that, and no one says the six right

25
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: except for Drake.

26
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

27
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: I feel like when I said that, other Native Toronto

28
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: Torontians are like, yeah.

29
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, no like the six. I mean if

30
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: you were maybe born like in two thousand.

31
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: Sure, oh I like that.

32
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 3: But but yeah, that's that's what old people call it

33
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: slang for Toronto back then.

34
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, I'm sorry. I can't not refer to it

35
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: as the six. It's to call it my generation. But

36
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 2: I'm just yeah, look, can I say I don't even

37
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 2: know what you're referring to? How was your draft experience

38
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 2: as somebody who you know, same city as the team

39
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: that will ultimately be bringing the wearer, the bearer of

40
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: the look of the evening into your city? What did

41
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 2: you think of? Like, what when you saw that Grady

42
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: Dick was still available when the Raptors came up? Was

43
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 2: every fiber of your being just being like please?

44
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 3: It was? It was the complete opposite. So here's the thing.

45
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 3: Like I've watched the the suit was a lot, you

46
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 3: know what it is. I would have loved the suit

47
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 3: if it didn't have the tournament underneath like that that

48
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 3: was to me. It was like, tone it down a

49
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 3: little bit, but no, Like, I've spent so much time

50
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 3: just digging into this NBA draft because it's very rare

51
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 3: that the Raptors have a lottery pick, and now it's

52
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 3: a second one, and like a decade that they've had

53
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 3: and so it was just exciting to go through all

54
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 3: the names and then you're, you know, team picks thirteenth

55
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 3: and you still have all the guys with Kobe Bufkins,

56
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: they can't wit More's all these names that you've been

57
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 3: digging into, and Grady Dick the teamMy shooting desperately need

58
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 3: a shooting. But I was like, SA's fit and I

59
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 3: was like, not him, just awa. It was a lot

60
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 3: and I've never been more wrong about something in my

61
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 3: entire life. Two minutes later, I'm like, oh, wait, he's

62
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 3: actually the best pick ever. I'm sorry, he's the best

63
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 3: rookie ever. So sorry to you know, Vince Carter, Scottie

64
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: Bart's like, I found my favorite rookie as a Toronto Raptor.

65
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 3: But yeah, no, the Damon stottlemyre yes, yes, let's go back.

66
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: Into the way back machine for the elderly folks.

67
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I remember when he was drafted the same

68
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: year I was born.

69
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: That's right, But yeah, that the fit's great.

70
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: I have a theory on the turtleneck of it all,

71
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: which is that Grady dick Is actually has a six

72
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 2: to two person's body, but his neck is three feet long,

73
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: and so in order to like kind of hide and

74
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 2: draw attention away from that, we got the turtle neck

75
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: and just maybe the bejeweled suit in general could have

76
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 2: been the thing. I think he's still great. I just

77
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: when I saw a picture of him without it, I

78
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 2: was like, WHOA a lot of neck, A lot of neck.

79
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 3: Also going to pair it with the pants too. I

80
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 3: don't know if you guys know this, but the pants

81
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 3: just did not fit, so he had to wear just black.

82
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: What happened?

83
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so he Oh, okay, you've done your research.

84
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: No, I was gonna say, I did have that. His

85
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 2: suit did pose the question we're going to show restraint there.

86
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: Turtle neck but slacks.

87
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 3: On, which so itchy?

88
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, June, and it's.

89
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 3: Got to be really hot. I don't know.

90
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it in the sense that, like in

91
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: the beginning, it was like, what's the nicest suit I

92
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: can wear? Kind of thing, and now we're like fully

93
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: entering this like drip swag era of just like doing

94
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: whatever you want to do and it doesn't matter what

95
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: anybody else's perception. And I just love that he had

96
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: this whole backstory. He's like, well, you know, I'm not

97
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 1: in Kansas anymore, you know, doing a little do Yeah,

98
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: like I'm Dorothy out here with it. But yeah, I

99
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 1: think it's also because as our producer Jabari was like

100
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: also brought up, it reminded us of BJ from Righteous Gemstones.

101
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: That was my very first thought when I saw it.

102
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 2: I was like, who is this Bja looking person? I

103
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 2: forgot the draft was happening tonight and people were tweeting

104
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: that out and yeah, yeah, I mean other people were

105
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: comparing it to like a figure skating outfit, but I

106
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: thought he was giving BJ the whole time.

107
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah.

108
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 2: It just shows a tremendous amount of character confidence to

109
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 2: be wearing something that like bit forward right at a

110
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: time when there are so many eyes on you and

111
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 2: it can go so horribly wrong, Like you have to

112
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: just be so comfortable in your own skin to do that.

113
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 3: Brady Dick, So you know you're memeable already, Yes, walk

114
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 3: on that court, you know, you're memeable, and I'm just saying,

115
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 3: like ruby slippers, why why weren't your shoes just red

116
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 3: and sequenced? I know they're different, but you know what,

117
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 3: I love it now. He just seems like a lot

118
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 3: of fun and I kind of wish that we had

119
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 3: the pants to go along with it.

120
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think once I started, like people started

121
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: posting like like compilations of his TikTok posts, I was like,

122
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: if I thought I couldn't like him more for his

123
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: history onic outfit, I'm like, this kid just loves like

124
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: he's goofy and he loves dancing. I mean he's not

125
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: a bad dancer, but he's not the best dancer, but

126
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: like you can just tell he's like I'm living my

127
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: truth at all times and I love the new backflips

128
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: off of stuff.

129
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 2: Yes, all right, so we did mention Grady Dick not

130
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 2: the only person bringing in case people are here for

131
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: draft analysis. Oh, I will just say last year I

132
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: followed draft analysis pretty closely, and I remember the one

133
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 2: thing I took away was that like Keegan Murray was

134
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: a real questionable pick. The only like big thing consensus

135
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 2: thing was people being like what were they thinking taking

136
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: him where they did and Benedict Metherine like also somewhat questionable,

137
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: and they were two of the best rookies, like two

138
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: of the best values that turns out, I just really

139
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: feel like you're wasting the limited amount of attention that

140
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 2: you can give to the NBA by like paying too

141
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: much attention to what people say coming into the league

142
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: because nobody knows anything, Like at this point, people really

143
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: don't know other than they seem to have a sense

144
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: that this Victor Webbingama guy is gonna be good.

145
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 1: I mean, or was he We'll get to that questionable video.

146
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: Yes, But so the one thing that I do like

147
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 2: to take away from the draft is just the fashion

148
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 2: has really been taking leaps and bounds forward. Obviously with

149
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: Grady Dick, I thought Wemban Yama suit was actually cool, Like.

150
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 4: It was felt French, it felt like couture, It felt

151
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 4: quture and French, and in a way that was subtle

152
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 4: enough that it wasn't Yeah, he.

153
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,559
Speaker 2: Pulled it off because it had a little tie up front,

154
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 2: like the Jackey had a little tie.

155
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: In like the sort of I wish I knew lapels

156
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: the way the lapels were see that.

157
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 2: I'm like not very fashion literate.

158
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I like that. It looked like it

159
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: was very Again, it was like it was one of

160
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: those minimalistic suits. But when you look close, you're like, oh,

161
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: there's a lot going on. Okay, I see you Wemby.

162
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 2: Also, I'm seeing this picture of him with everybody else

163
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,599
Speaker 2: who is drafted, and he is so tall. Well you

164
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: know if people have mentioned this, he's really tall from Banyama. Yeah,

165
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 2: and he can make shots from all over the court,

166
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: which is pretty cool.

167
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: What did you think of scoot Suit?

168
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: Scoot Suit was cool. I think that because it was

169
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 2: like a lot. It looked like, you know, a couple

170
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: of necklaces had been exploded on onto the suit, and

171
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: then he also had a lot of necklaces around his neck.

172
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: So it might have just been too much necklaces vibes

173
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: coming at me.

174
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't, I don't know. What's What was your

175
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: thoughts on on scoots very shiny jewelry suit.

176
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 3: I loved it. It looked like you could hurt somebody, yes, oh.

177
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: Right, like with an arrant arm Yeah.

178
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the more dangerous your suit is, go for

179
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 3: it's fun.

180
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: Spikes on it next year.

181
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the only one that really I didn't

182
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 2: like was Keyante George with the uh it was like

183
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 2: a very tight suit, very tight around the thighs and

184
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: then had a boot cut flare at the bottom, A

185
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: real risk with the with the pattern, the pattern kind

186
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 2: of evoked a hotel carpet.

187
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,479
Speaker 1: I like that, We're like, we're all in on sequence,

188
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: and then we're like this pattern was a bit of

189
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: a risk for me.

190
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 2: It just didn't work. Yeah, I think the combination of

191
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,559
Speaker 2: pattern with how tight it was didn't work for me.

192
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: Right right, I mean it's it's not as attention seeking.

193
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: I guess that's maybe what it is. It's like, if

194
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: you're going to go all in, go the scoot or

195
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: Grady level. Yeah, this feels like restraining the boot. Yeah exactly.

196
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: And this is a bit of a drown for me.

197
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: But hey, what do I know. I barely knew how

198
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: to say the word lapel until three seconds ago.

199
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 2: So I was disappointed with usually. I looked to NBA

200
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 2: Sports editors for my fashion advice, and they were given

201
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: his suit an F minus over on dig with the

202
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 2: one sentence, what in the hell was this for Grady Dick?

203
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 5: Right?

204
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 2: I believe it was iconic is what it was. Yeah,

205
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 2: and you yeah, maybe maybe stick to talk writing about

206
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: basketball over there. It's that time.

207
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm passioned staying in lane. I mean, maybe I think

208
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: we'll see some Halloween costumes of people doing great, because absolutely.

209
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 3: You're failing if you're not pulling that out.

210
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like that better be the costume that we

211
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: see in Toronto. Is everybody wearing a sequence turtleneck? At least?

212
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: You know the times in October is Grady Dick season

213
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: in Toronto. We've got October, Halloween, September's frosh week, and

214
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 3: I just imagine every college kid is going to start

215
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 3: with the Grady Dick jersey just because Dick and number

216
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 3: one on the back. Just oh yeah, very much like

217
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 3: I'm nineteen and starting college right now, right Yeah, so yeah,

218
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: September October, that's his season here.

219
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: What's everyone's feelings about this draft class, because you know,

220
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: super Jabar is like, I really like this class, and

221
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: for me, I'm like looking at them and for me

222
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: as like an older you know what a geriatric millennium

223
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 1: I think is the word. I'm like, this feels like

224
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 1: the draft like when TikTok came to town. Uh, and

225
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: I love it, Like there's just something I don't know.

226
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: Everyone feels very much like they're doing their own thing

227
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: rather than maybe copying something else.

228
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 2: I finally feel seen as a member of this same generation.

229
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, mo on, how about you.

230
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 3: It's fun. I just I'm always excited about the draft.

231
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 3: You could probably ask me that about every draft class,

232
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 3: even the most like corrend this ones, and I'm like,

233
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 3: it's great. I'm having a ton of fun with these

234
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 3: kids coming into the league.

235
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so positive, so positive. We need more.

236
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 3: I need something, I need some.

237
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you got some excitement in the form of Grady.

238
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: I gotta say.

239
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 2: I gotta say when Bin Yama, you know, he's saying

240
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 2: all the right things, like couldn't have better role models

241
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 2: pictured with, you know, some of the greats in Spurs history.

242
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 2: But then we saw him on the court brickter Wembing Nabra,

243
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: I think is what we're calling this nail. So this

244
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 2: was funny because they invented something like the Internet invented

245
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: something called a debut shooting series. They were like, is

246
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 2: he came to his big debut shooting series, which is

247
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 2: not a thing that anyone has ever had. He put

248
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 2: on his uniform and was like shooting around on the

249
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: Spurs court and people were like tried to make it

250
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: into like this is a thing that NBA stars do,

251
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: is like they have their debut shooting series and everybody

252
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 2: watches and like judges based on that. And this one

253
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 2: headline caught my attention. Wembing Yama's catastrophic shooting series in

254
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 2: his debut with the Spurs missed almost everyone. There's courtesy

255
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: of Marca dot Com.

256
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: That's okay, So this is what, first of all, has

257
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: anyone done in open like a debut shooting. This is

258
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: the first of anything we've heard of this, right right, Okay,

259
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: So this is my These are my theories. In Europe,

260
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: when you have a high profile signing of a footballer

261
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: soccer player, you usually parade them out in the arena

262
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,199
Speaker 1: all the fans get to see and you start doing it.

263
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: You'd start juggling the ball and just kind of showing

264
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 1: people like kind of your skills, and a lot of

265
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: the times people will make a like a meal out

266
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: of somebody flubbing their themselves trying to keep a ball

267
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: up and be like, oh oh, he went in front

268
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: of the all the fans and couldn't do it, yikes.

269
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: So it's like it feels like a there's a very

270
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: like sort of European soccer sort of lens that they're

271
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 1: looking at this like event through And also Marca is

272
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: a Spanish outlet, so I have a feeling they're just

273
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: sending some shade the French's way by being like, oh no,

274
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: I'm I'm surprised they didn't do like Soccer Blue kind

275
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: of strophic Wemby debut.

276
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 2: To Mark Gasol Propaganda Network where they're like, you call

277
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: that at a center, I'll show you.

278
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't know. I think it's it's funny

279
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: to see how many people were like sort of having

280
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: fun with that clip but also sort of confused, like

281
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: what is he doing, like and who are these people

282
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: he's shooting in front of? And all they would do

283
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: is clap when he dunked the ball. Was kind of funny.

284
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: Those were the only ones he made. Miles. I'm just saying,

285
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: we've just seen the future. It's built out of bricks. Uh,

286
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: just saying, Spurs fans, you should be maybe this will

287
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 2: be like the only thing his moment, you know, how

288
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 2: like every great NBA player has to be like they

289
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: said I could never do it. I had my doubters,

290
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: like he might need to like put this on the

291
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 2: bulletin board, this Victor, Yeah right, exactly.

292
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: The.

293
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 3: San Antonio greaty Dick, great shooter. We could do a

294
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 3: one for one swap.

295
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think was it like a mere Bluomenfeld tweeted

296
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: something like that, He's like, what do you putting? Note?

297
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: Once the Spurs officially signed Wimby, they cannot trade him

298
00:15:54,400 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: for thirty days. We'll see. I mean, look, I think

299
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: everybody would take him. Uh, what else about the draft?

300
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: I mean, what'd you think? What do we think about

301
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: the picks? Any any surprises? Brandon Miller at the two,

302
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: Scoot the three, I.

303
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: Mean that seemed to be what people were saying was

304
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 2: gonna happen. And Scoot Uh, I think a lot of

305
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: people are predicting Scoot is going to make Charlotte pay

306
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 2: or sad for what they for what they did to him.

307
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 2: But we'll see. I don't know it's they they also

308
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: like Jade and Ivy was like the one that everyone

309
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 2: was like, I can't believe they like didn't and you

310
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 2: know it's nobody knows anything. Well, right, we'll see this year.

311
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: But they already have odds out for the twenty twenty

312
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 3: four draft and like what what? Like Lebron James Junior

313
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 3: is expected to go seventeenth to the Atlanta Hawks?

314
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: Like what what are we talking about?

315
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 5: What?

316
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, why have we decided that Atlanta gets

317
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 3: a seventeenth pick? Why have we decided any of this?

318
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: Right? Well, people need to put the bed on. How

319
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: I mean, how are you, like what you know, putting

320
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 1: on your basketball fan had? How are you looking at

321
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: Grady Dick's arrival? Are you hopeful? What I mean? What

322
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: are your expectations? I mean, obviously he had a you know,

323
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: great time in Kansas, but what where are you? How

324
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: are you aside from the fantastic outfits, he's gonna walk

325
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: into the arena with what's your next thing you're expecting

326
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: from him? Yeah?

327
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know if you guys know this,

328
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 3: but the Raptors and Raptor fans specifically have just had

329
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: the worst year, Like the vibes have never been more off.

330
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 3: Of course, that's sort of capped off with changing the

331
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 3: coach because the vibes were so bad and I've never

332
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 3: seen a complete one to eighty before a single game

333
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: is played, and it's just because everyone seems to really

334
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 3: love Grady Dick, Like I know, I love like, I

335
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 3: love him. I think he's great. The tiktoks are a

336
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 3: lot of fun. We're having fun with it, but like,

337
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 3: I mean, what is he going to be? At most?

338
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 3: What the ninth tenth guy in the rotation and pub

339
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 3: it and make some shots?

340
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 2: But what a ninth tenth guy, you know, the.

341
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 3: Best in the league. If if you're looking at how

342
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 3: the vibes have shifted, it's a complete one eighty overnight

343
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 3: where everyone's just really excited for him.

344
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that is a testament to like it

345
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: just shows how much like as a fan base, like

346
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: we really want to move forward and you just need

347
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: this like sequined angel to come down from Kansas and

348
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, everything's okay, we'll see what happens.

349
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 3: I have to say it probably like has something to

350
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 3: do with a little bit.

351
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:27,400
Speaker 5: Of an Canadian inferiority complex where we're like, like bleacher

352
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 5: Report is talking about the thirteenth pick so much. I'm like, yes,

353
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 5: you and keeps covering Granny Dick's outfit, and I just

354
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 5: feel like people are in desperate need of some attention

355
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 5: from those major outlets, or it's like, okay.

356
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: The drafted it because of the suit. They were like,

357
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 2: we need some drip up here. The we've been trending

358
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 2: big on social right now, right, just grab them, snap

359
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 2: it up, man. You saying that, like the Raptors, like

360
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 2: vibes were bad. I'm just like picturing Nick Nurse leaving

361
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 2: there and being like, Wow, those were really bad vibes.

362
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 2: No other team can compete with how bad those vibes were,

363
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: and joining the team that I pull for the seventy

364
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: six ers, and just everybody in the organization being like, oh, Nicholas.

365
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 1: Welcome to Nay, welcome to Vieville. Yeah, all right, taking

366
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: a break.

367
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: Yes, we'll take a break, all right, talk about some

368
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 2: free agencies, some unrestricted free agencies, some trades that have

369
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 2: already gone down. Yeah, other excitement. We'll be right back,

370
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 2: and we're back. We're back, and free agency officially begins

371
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 2: Friday at six pm Eastern Standard time. Set your clocks.

372
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 2: But we've got plenty of rumors swirling around already. But

373
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 2: we've also had some big moves. Yeah, porzingis now a

374
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 2: Celtic m hmm. I mentioned on my other show, on

375
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: our other show, that Pregosian, the Russian UH hot dog

376
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 2: leader who was almost who almost overthrew Putin. I thought

377
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 2: Porzingis was trending all day Saturday. I was like, what

378
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 2: has happened to me? They are really these Celtics fans

379
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 2: are really up in arms about this in Russia. But

380
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 2: it's a it's interesting. It just like feels. So they

381
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 2: traded away the Celtics traded away Marcus Smart, They're bringing

382
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 2: in Poorzingis. The second I saw it, I was like, Okay,

383
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 2: my gut is that's that doesn't feel like a Celtics trade.

384
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 2: It doesn't feel like they got the better of that.

385
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 2: And I was like, but I know better. I know

386
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 2: that Brad Stevens is super smart. So this is going

387
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 2: to eventually start making sense to me and I'm going

388
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,440
Speaker 2: to start being more terrified of the Celtics. And sure enough,

389
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 2: Porzingis had his best offensive season last season. I thought

390
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,959
Speaker 2: he was like on the down slow of his career

391
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 2: from he was really efficient and played some of his

392
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 2: best defense last season with the Wizards. So they're adding that.

393
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 2: And it did seem to me that like there was

394
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,719
Speaker 2: like just something with again, like the energy of that

395
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 2: team and having Marcus Smart be like the alpha on

396
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 2: the team. I don't know if like removing the alpha

397
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 2: necessarily solves your problems or maybe it does. I have

398
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: no idea, but it's it's definitely an interesting move that's

399
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: like not in line with like how they've seemed to

400
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 2: operate over the past like five years. How are you

401
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 2: guys feeling about Does this make you more afraid of

402
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 2: the Celtics less afraid?

403
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: I did the same thing. I was like persingis and

404
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 1: then i started like reading some more like analysis and

405
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, right, this this this could be something

406
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: very interesting because yeah, it feels like they're adding a

407
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: different dimension to their offense that maybe was there initially.

408
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, and I can see how this

409
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 1: all comes together. So I don't know. For me as

410
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: a Laker fan, I'm gonna go ahead and say I'm

411
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: not worried at all, and then privately in text, I

412
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 1: will probably text you in the middle of night Jack

413
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: said I had another presingus nightmare.

414
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: They also like got first round picks in the deal,

415
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 2: which it just always seems to happen like in a

416
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, that's Okay, that's a pretty even trade.

417
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 2: Oh and they also got a bunch of like picks.

418
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 2: The Celtics always just get picks, like somehow they just

419
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 2: always win the trade.

420
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know that I love the deal

421
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 3: for them.

422
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 2: It's to me.

423
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 3: I get the idea of bringing in porzingis. I've been

424
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 3: sort of banging the drum that Al Horford is aging,

425
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,880
Speaker 3: and we cannot keep talking about the Celtics team as

426
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 3: though they're the same of years past. Like I did

427
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 3: not have them making the finals this year, have been

428
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 3: very down. The Sixers would probably take them out very close,

429
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 3: but you know, can never be one.

430
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 2: I love Toronto just has I'm.

431
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 3: Banging the drum of the Philadelphia and then as soon as

432
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 3: in bed got heard, I'm like Celtics and seven and

433
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 3: it happened, and then I picked Miami over them. And

434
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,840
Speaker 3: my whole thing this entire time has been I don't

435
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 3: think people recognize how important Al Horford was for them,

436
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,399
Speaker 3: like on the defensive end, how important he was, and

437
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 3: you just watch him guarding in space and it's a problem.

438
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 3: It's not something that he can do as well as

439
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 3: he's done in years past because he's aging. And also

440
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 3: that three point shot completely disappeared. I don't know if

441
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 3: people know this, but when they made the finals, Like,

442
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 3: I don't know if like people are talking about this

443
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 3: as much. When they made the finals, Al Harford was

444
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 3: shooting with forty eight percent from three on like four

445
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 3: or five attempts a game. He was absolutely lights out

446
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 3: and unstoppable. In every series. He was averaging like ninetta

447
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 3: points in a series or something crazy like that. Like

448
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 3: he was just so integral to what they did, and

449
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 3: they don't have that. And like the Celtics philosophy right now,

450
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,479
Speaker 3: I guess is just we're gonna shoot more threes than

451
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 3: everybody else. And so Chrisausquarzingis comes in and he can

452
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,679
Speaker 3: space the floor so like and he sort of you

453
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 3: don't need to rely on Al Horford for as many

454
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 3: minutes as you know, Lily and Rob Williams is always hurt,

455
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 3: so you just have another center there. So I get

456
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: wanting Porzingis. I do not get not having Marcus smart. Like,

457
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 3: to me, that's the part where it just like they

458
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 3: lose me entirely because they already have no playmaking and

459
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 3: they just got rid of their only real point guard

460
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 3: who's like not even a point guard really kind of

461
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: combo in that way. But he's still their best playmaker.

462
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: And so it's like, Okay, you guys have all these shooters,

463
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,439
Speaker 3: but who's gonna who's going to pass the ball at

464
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 3: everybody else? And like you, who's your finisher? Who gets

465
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 3: downhill on this team consistently enough? I don't know. So

466
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 3: I'm confused by them. Laker fans, don't be worried. You'll

467
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 3: be fine.

468
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 2: If this was the seventy six ers, I would say, wait,

469
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 2: So you're trying to solve the problem with like the

470
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 2: toughness of your stars, because like that seems to have

471
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 2: been a thing. Is that like your best players were

472
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 2: not like quite as tough and like consistent and alpha

473
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 2: is like you wanted them to be in this past postseason,

474
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: And you're trying to solve that by just like getting

475
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,680
Speaker 2: rid of your toughest player, like to your like mentally

476
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 2: toughest player, because by comparison, he just made them like

477
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 2: they were relying on him too much. That seems like

478
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 2: a disaster. But Brad Stevens, I feel like he's he

479
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 2: knows something I don't. And rooting against the Celtics in

480
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 2: every game that they've played over the past decade. I've

481
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 2: been taught that, uh, it never it's never as simple

482
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: as it seems, right. But Marcus Smart for Memphis is amazing.

483
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 2: What an addition.

484
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we were all we were all worried what,

485
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 1: you know, what they would do without Dylan Brooks.

486
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: You know, he seems to be like what the what

487
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks wanted.

488
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: To be right right, you know, like exactly.

489
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he he you know, gives them some toughness,

490
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 2: gives them an identity. I think he's going to be

491
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 2: great there. Like he is a terrifying person to be

492
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 2: playing against because he's so tough on d He's got

493
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,719
Speaker 2: that just getting your best player's head type of energy

494
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,440
Speaker 2: and he's just a I feel like he was kind

495
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 2: of underrated because he was on the Celtics and like

496
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 2: there were questions of fit. But with Memphis, I feel

497
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 2: like he could be really good for them.

498
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 3: Now that he's off the Celtics, I can like love

499
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 3: him freely without that.

500
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 2: We're all like thank you, Yeah.

501
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 1: So Grady, he's actually one of my favorite players. And

502
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: then actually, you know, it turns out delete.

503
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 3: All my old Marcus Smart tweets.

504
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: Oh my already got my Marcus's most smart Memphis jersey,

505
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: so it's it's all, it's all fantastic. And then CP

506
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 1: three moving on down the Golden State Warriors U and

507
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,120
Speaker 1: then he had Jordan Poole getting juices chucked at him.

508
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 2: So CB three on Golden State is very interesting. I

509
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 2: have no idea how that's gonna work out. It really

510
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 2: seems like they were mainly trying to get out of

511
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 2: the Pool contract. Like I feel like that was a

512
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 2: bigger part of it than people are like acknowledging narratively.

513
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 2: But they were just like, oh, we've made a terrible

514
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: mistake and got out of that, and they're bringing in

515
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 2: CP three And it's not that much much of a risk,

516
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 2: I guess because it's like one year, but I guess

517
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: every year is a pretty big risk because your best

518
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 2: players are aging. But I don't know, it'll be interesting,

519
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: Like all of these trades have made the league extremely interesting.

520
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: Right Well, I think the other question is like how

521
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: does you know Chris Paul, Like is he going to

522
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 1: embrace you know, coming off the bench being more like

523
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,239
Speaker 1: seen as a backup, or what's where's his head going

524
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: to be at? Will he will he move into that,

525
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: will he be more adamant about like where he is

526
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: in the lineup.

527
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 2: I don't know. I could see it, like them trying

528
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: different things out. But yeah, a lot of people seem

529
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 2: to be like, oh, he would never accept like a

530
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 2: backup role. But I feel like he's been pretty flexible,

531
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 2: Like I obviously he's not. He's never been like asked

532
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 2: to be a role player off the bench or anything.

533
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 2: And I don't think that's necessarily what they're going to

534
00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 2: ask him to do. I think they'll he'll frequently have

535
00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 2: the in his hands whenever he's in the game, but

536
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 2: I think just scaled back minutes and you know, a

537
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 2: little more movement, and but I think it'll work better

538
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 2: than a lot of skeptics seem to be suggesting.

539
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 3: I think that, like, for one, it's just hilarious watching

540
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 3: Warriors fans have to root for Chris Paul. Like, I

541
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: think that part is just really fun.

542
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: I'm really excited about yours now.

543
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, But beyond that, I think that, like, you don't

544
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 3: have to have Draymond Green initiate the offense. You can

545
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 3: now have Chris Paul initiative the offense.

546
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 2: And if I'm like, if.

547
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 3: I'm the other team, and I have to now guard

548
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 3: a Chris Paul, let's say, Kevon Looney or Draymond Green

549
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 3: pick and roll. So I'm focused on that because that's

550
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 3: still the best pick and roll guard, even if he's aged.

551
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 3: And then you have Steph off Ball, and like, we

552
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 3: know what Steph off Ball is, but you've got to

553
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 3: focus on Chris Paul and his pick and roll and

554
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 3: Steph off Ball, and then you have Clay and Wiggans

555
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 3: spotting up. Like to me, that's just like the options

556
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 3: and what defenders have to do. Like, I think it

557
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 3: could be really exciting, but I also think there's really

558
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 3: big potential for disaster. And I love that as well.

559
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 2: But it's a really good point about Steph off Ball,

560
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 2: Like the best off ball player in our lifetime, maybe

561
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 2: of all time, has never really had a point guard,

562
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 2: like a traditional point guard that he's played with.

563
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 3: So Dreamland can screen for him, Like, yeah, it could

564
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 3: be fun.

565
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if he's there, I mean I think

566
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if we were. I mean, if we're

567
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: just to talk about Draymond too, there's all kinds of

568
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: talk about him. The last thing I read the rumor

569
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,239
Speaker 1: was Damian Lillard shut a restaurant down just to have

570
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: dinner with Draymond to talk in Portland because we all

571
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: know that. You know, he's got his eyes on reuniting

572
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: with Jeremy Grant and then also having Draymond on the team.

573
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: So that's also another thing. You're like, well, what's is

574
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: he saying or or what happens there?

575
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 3: Not sure?

576
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, dam shutdown a restaurant to have dinner

577
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 2: with me before. That's not that big a deal.

578
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: Probably what you talk about.

579
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 2: What didn't we signing for the Blazers obviously, Yeah, so yeah,

580
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 2: that's a good transition to unrestricted free agency, so hardens

581
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 2: on a player option. People now seem to think, as

582
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 2: we mentioned last week, most likely to sign in Philly,

583
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 2: Kyrie is an unrestricted free agent, seems most likely to

584
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 2: re sign in Dallas. But you know, is there another

585
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: team that makes sense for Kyrie? At the stage, Miles,

586
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 2: as a Lakers fan, are you signing for the No?

587
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: No, I am not moving Raptors.

588
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 2: What do you.

589
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,720
Speaker 3: Thinktors don't have the money?

590
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: But no, no, right right? Right? Right? I mean yeah,

591
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 1: what what like, I mean, where do you even see

592
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: a team that makes sense? For him.

593
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 2: I just I don't know, like it.

594
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 3: Go there because they're trying to go after front Van Vleet,

595
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna be honest, my whole summer is going

596
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 3: to be ruined. I can't even celebrate Grady Dick bring

597
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 3: back our free agents, So please go after.

598
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right, right, Yeah, they're they're definitely, They're interesting.

599
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 2: They are in every conversation. Just if we're talking about

600
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 2: an unrestricted free agent, you can assume that Houston has

601
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: shown interest and has announced that they're in the conversation.

602
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I feel like agents will probably even tell

603
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: that even if there's not they're like, well, you know,

604
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: Houston's knocking around too, Like no, they're not, Like, I mean,

605
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: it could it could they could be. They're like, you know,

606
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: you're right, You're right, they right.

607
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. Chris Middleton declined a forty one million dollar player

608
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 2: option to hit the market at thirty one, So that's bold. Yeah,

609
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 2: but I feel like people are expecting him to be

610
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 2: back in Milwaukee. Draymond his name has been you know,

611
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 2: the Pistons, the Kings, The Kings. Is funny because it

612
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 2: it does feel like anytime you have a huge impact

613
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 2: in a series in which you defeat a team in

614
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 2: the playoffs, that team will overrate you for the rest

615
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 2: of like their natural existence and your time in the league.

616
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 2: Not saying he's overrated, but like it just I've always

617
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 2: noticed that with like you know, Doc tends to do

618
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 2: Doc Rivers tended to do that a lot. But yeah,

619
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 2: also the Blazers maybe, Yeah, everyone's interested, which why wouldn't

620
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: you be, But we'll see Fred van Vliet the Rockets

621
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 2: reportedly interested in bringing in I would love him. I

622
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: think everybody's like, oh, Fred van Vliet is an option

623
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 2: that could happen. Rapper fans are not.

624
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 3: There's a large segment of the fan base that isn't

625
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 3: an understandable considering the year that they just had. But like,

626
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 3: I'm not a part of that group. Bring him back.

627
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 2: What's the complaint the defensively or.

628
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 3: Defense east lip I mean, like, but he is legitimately,

629
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 3: like you know it was in the running for a

630
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 3: third or second team All in the All Defensive team

631
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 3: last year, not this past year, but the year before that.

632
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 3: He is a good defender, but he's small. Yeah, actors

633
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 3: just they don't have enough finishing. He's also more of

634
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 3: a combo guard than he is a point guard, and

635
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 3: there's just a lot of fights about should he be

636
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 3: on ball, should he be off ball? But I think

637
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 3: the biggest thing is just his size that seemed to

638
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 3: get on people's nerves. And unfortunately he's you know, twenty nine,

639
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 3: he's not about to grow. We're not going to see

640
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 3: like a growth bard out of him.

641
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 2: You never know.

642
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: And also, look, six six 's one isn't anything to

643
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: laugh at. I'll say, you know, it's true. It's the

644
00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: fine like the fine height, it's a fine hype.

645
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 3: Is this a question?

646
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 2: The question?

647
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: Don't don't make him take his shoes off? Okay.

648
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 2: I walked by Tias Edney one time and he was

649
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 2: listed as I think six feet tall and.

650
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: Tias Edney is five to seven. Yes, yes, I remember.

651
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: I remember when I like went to like a meet

652
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: and greet with those UCLA players and I was like

653
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: disappointed as a kid even.

654
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, he seemed like a kid like you walked by.

655
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 2: He's one of the youngest looking people and also much

656
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 2: smaller in person than you would think, which a testament

657
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 2: to his game. You know.

658
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, completely, So.

659
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 2: I don't know any any other free agency, potential restricted

660
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 2: free agency that has caught your attention to who you

661
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 2: guys are kind of keeping an eye on.

662
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: I mean, for me, it is always I just wanted

663
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: to see, not the unrestricted free agency side of it,

664
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: but just the where Damian Lillard goes, just to see

665
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 1: what the knock on effect is of that, because I

666
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 1: think that seems to be the one that will initiate

667
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: be the catalyst for a lot of other stuff. But

668
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: no other than that, I'm just in a state of

669
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,279
Speaker 1: suspended animation waiting for Webbin Yama to call me up

670
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 1: and maybe hang out or something. But he's a beautiful

671
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,880
Speaker 1: nails as well. Yeah, I was going to say, we

672
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: forgot to say he has beautiful nails.

673
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, really long nail back.

674
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that picture him holding the baseball. I remember my

675
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 1: person was like, my goodness, his cuticles fantastic.

676
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:02,959
Speaker 2: That was my very first thought there.

677
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And I was joking was, oh my god, wow,

678
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: but his nails are beautiful. Uh so Victor, please let

679
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 1: us know. But yeah, like Iman, what about you, what

680
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: any any kind of wild predictions for a free agency

681
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: or anything else you see?

682
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't even pretend that I care about other

683
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 3: teams when the Raptors can just break right in front

684
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 3: of my face. But I would kind of like to

685
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 3: see other teams break so like in brook Lopez just like, yeah,

686
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,320
Speaker 3: I'm forty years old. I don't know how old he is.

687
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 3: It's my last contract. Houston wants to give me a

688
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,839
Speaker 3: trillion dollars let me go. That would be fun.

689
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: He's thirty five, you know, to be fair, he's thirty five,

690
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: To be.

691
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 3: Fair, I apologize thirty five, I'm.

692
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 2: So old smiles that's yeah, five.

693
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: That I was about to get mad. You're talking about

694
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: Al Horford aging. I'm like, I'm Al Horford's age. I'm

695
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: older than Al Horford. No, that's fine, only this one

696
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 1: in space.

697
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 3: I mean, he's still a young puppin in life. But honestly,

698
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 3: as a Raptor fan, I'm just anxiously waiting for the

699
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 3: team to come back and us figuring out what we're

700
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,440
Speaker 3: going to do, and then for everybody else, I'm like, yeah,

701
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 3: have fun. But brook Lopez going to Houston just be fun,

702
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 3: just because like, I feel like he would go crazy

703
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 3: with those kids, and I like chaos. I root for

704
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: maximum chaos as long as it's not my team.

705
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 1: Gray The Shodenfreud a technique you're like, yeah, I'd like

706
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: to see the other things being disarray. Of course, I guess.

707
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of maximum chaos, Miles, I think it's time

708
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 2: to take a break and come back and have the

709
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 2: most chaotic, the fastest segment in podcasting history, that is

710
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,120
Speaker 2: about the NBA. So we're coming back with the rapid

711
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 2: fire segment. We will be right back. Everybody, hold on

712
00:36:51,960 --> 00:37:03,920
Speaker 2: to your butts and we're back.

715
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: I gotta go grade with everybody.

716
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 2: Well, that would be the fastest rapid fire segment ever.

717
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 1: This will be the fastest rapid fire segment ever because

718
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 1: we are going to be conscious also of our guest time.

719
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 1: But you have found yourself in the rapid fire round

720
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: of question. Okay, now we're gonna ask you a question.

00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: teams we want to cover in the off season, Spurs

745
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: or obviously want to talk about them. H what's a

746
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: team you're expecting things from? We've talked about obviously, the Rockets, Portland, Magic,

747
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: et cetera. Who else should we be keeping our eye on?

748
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 3: The Mavericks. That's the first team that came to mind,

749
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,399
Speaker 3: And now I don't think so because they seem boring,

750
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 3: but sure, m okay, now what is.

751
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: It about the Mavericks.

752
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 3: We're talking about Kyrie? And I'm just like, are they

753
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 3: bringing him back? They have to he want to be there,

754
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,800
Speaker 3: He's got to. It seems cutting dry.

755
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 1: Right right?

756
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: Okay, Mark, I think Cubans. I love that adding.

757
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: I think I was actually mad that it felt like

758
00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: the image of his face that was burned onto the

759
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: bun was like done in post and they didn't actually

760
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 1: burn it into the piece of bread.

761
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's like I was like, you didn't even you

762
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 2: didn't even singe the bread properly to have his face

763
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 2: on this done and post he is.

764
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Min, you got to keep this. You got

765
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:35,919
Speaker 1: to keep this going. We have to keep this going.

766
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 3: Sorry, But then I would have I would have walked

767
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 3: away without that tidbit. And now every time I see

768
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 3: the commercial, it's going to be.

769
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 1: They're messing around with you.

770
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 2: Why would they be called Mars Cubans if my face

771
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 2: isn't burnt onto them? I'm just saying exactly.
