Yes, 35 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: and it's with Grant Williams at the free throw line, 36 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: what the technical free throw attempt? And he gets the 37 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 3: very very rare free throw. Weggie, I mean, tass, you 38 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 3: had the compilation. It's only happened like what four or 39 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: five times since we. 40 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 4: Store four real ones. And it's great when it's a 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 4: tech free throw because no one can touch it. 42 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 3: That's amazing. And then no minutes later is mac Biambo 43 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 3: in Orlando a little left hand hook shot. There you go. 44 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, also rare. 45 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 3: And then this one a little controversial Austin reeves three 46 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: point attempt. It sticks for a second and drops, but 47 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 3: the officials blew the whistle and it was a jump ball, 48 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 3: and even though the Kings were like what that fell 49 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 3: out right away? 50 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 4: But a couple a couple of the officials didn't like 51 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 4: that call. 52 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 5: I feel, well, that was that was a little premature, 53 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 5: but hey, they want We'll take it. 54 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 3: Calls a call. That's a leggie. That's ten on the season. 55 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 3: We're on pace for fifty nine. And that wasn't it. 56 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: Because also on Friday night we had the leggie from 57 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 3: Derrick Rose. Oh yeah, where he gets that ball to 58 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: just stand still on the back of the rim. I mean, 59 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 3: those are even those are even more than the freezer weggie. 60 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know, I know, I guess Draymond Green 61 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 3: had one last year. 62 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 4: Those are more rare, A lot of rarities. So three 63 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 4: weggies on one night, that was the second time that 64 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 4: happened in one week, which it was the first time 65 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: that happened as we track them here, we tracked them 66 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 4: for nine years. And then a tech free throw weggie. 67 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 4: We've only seen four free throw weggies since we started 68 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 4: recording them. I was, I was late Friday night, I 69 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 4: was going back over all the starter shows trying to 70 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 4: find every single one and yeah, there's only been four 71 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 4: weggies from the free throw line. 72 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 3: And a lot of them have happened in Boston. 73 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 4: Two have happened in Boston and on the same side 74 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 4: of the rim, on the same rim. 75 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 5: Wow, that was a buzzy weggie though, that Grant Williams one. 76 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 5: I feel like that one made the rounds like that 77 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 5: was that was the closest to a viral weggie that 78 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 5: we had so far this season. With the way he 79 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 5: ended up going to the free throw line and the 80 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 5: fact that it was a technical free throw, that was 81 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 5: big time. 82 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 3: And you had Bruce Brown pointing at it. It was 83 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: he was talking shit to my stupid weggie. You're gonna 84 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 3: be a no doubt, you're idiot. So yeah, you're right, great, 85 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 3: great week Yes, that's amazing. All right, let's get into 86 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: winners of the NBA weekend task, get us started. I 87 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 3: think everybody knows who you're gonna start with there. 88 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's some good performances this weekend, but it's got 89 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 4: to start with Joel Embiid because on back to back 90 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 4: nights he had one hundred and one total points. It's 91 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 4: a little bonkers. On Saturday, it started with forty two 92 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: against the Atlanta Hawks, and at the beginning of this 93 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 4: game I was watching it. Maybe he was a little 94 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 4: surprised that the Hawks were giving him so much room 95 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 4: because I don't think he was touched before he got 96 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 4: to twenty points. Really, they're giving him room because he's 97 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 4: just two big, overpowering guys and he was in the 98 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 4: mid range and that shot was absolutely pure. He was 99 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 4: shaking everybody even when he put it down on the floor. 100 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 4: And going into this game, maybe he thought, I got 101 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 4: no James Harden, gotta do this on by myself. Also, 102 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 4: we're sort of at a low point of the season. 103 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 4: We're five and seven, but he did it all himself 104 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 4: to get them to six and seven. He also had 105 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 4: ten board, six assists, two steals, two blocks to go 106 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 4: along with the forty two. But that was nothing compared 107 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 4: to what he did on Sunday against the Utah Jazz. 108 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 4: Again a back to back and Joel Embiid usually those 109 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 4: two don't you know, equate to a monstrous game in 110 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 4: the second half of a back to back, But he 111 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 4: was balled and he had thirty three points going into 112 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter against the Utah Jats, who are very 113 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 4: tough and they keep games close. So they needed Joel 114 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 4: embid to come out at the beginning of the fourth 115 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 4: quarter and make some magic. And everything was going through 116 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 4: him in the fourth quarter, absolutely everything. They tried Rudy 117 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 4: Gay on him to try and stick with him with 118 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 4: his footspeck. 119 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 5: That didn't work well. 120 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 4: To watch the clips again against Rudy Gay, he was 121 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 4: shaking him and getting so much separation against a guy 122 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: who is supposed to be a forward, and it just 123 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: shows you how athletic Joel Embiid is against Jared Vanderbilt, 124 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 4: who was pretty good, but in his face, but at 125 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 4: that point in the game, I mean, he just was 126 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 4: seeing mesh like even a hand in his It was 127 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 4: just going in. They tried Kelly Olinick for peskiness, but 128 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 4: he was just going through Kelly Olinick and was too 129 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 4: fast for him. And they tried Lowry markin in for 130 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 4: foot speed. Couldn't be stopped. Everything going right. So he 131 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 4: had forty six with about six point fifty left in 132 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 4: the fourth, Doc needed to get him a blow because 133 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 4: there was going to be a timeout coming up. Doc 134 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 4: doing some coaching, so he sat for just about a minute, 135 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 4: you know, plus that timeout. Then he came out and 136 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 4: James Harden came over to him and his volure Louis Vatan, 137 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 4: and said something to him, probably, hey, man, go get it. 138 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 4: I'll come back in a couple of games. I'll help 139 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 4: you out and go get your career high, probably is 140 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 4: what he said, because his career high was fifty. It 141 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 4: was forty six as he came back into the game, 142 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 4: and then he scored every single point the rest of 143 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 4: the way for the Philadelphia seventy six Ers, thirteen more 144 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 4: to get him to fifty nine. No one else hit 145 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 4: a freaking basket in the entire fourth quarter. No Philadelphia 146 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 4: seventy six er he hit a basket. He had twenty 147 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 4: six of the twenty seven points for the Sixers one 148 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 4: free throw. He even had the energy with twenty seconds 149 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 4: left to get in Lowry mark in his ear as 150 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 4: he went to the free throw line because this was 151 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 4: a tight game to talk trash to Lowry marketing. Lowry 152 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 4: missed both doing it even at the free throw line. 153 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 4: Great free throw line defense there, but the defense actually 154 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 4: was important. You have five blocks, yeah, and some playoff 155 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 4: falling over guys like recovery falling over guys type of blocks. 156 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 4: So the fifty nine points amazing. Obviously only one three 157 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 4: pointer eighteen of twenty three on twos. He did hit 158 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 4: twenty free throw some ridiculous efficiency there. Line but but 159 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 4: but the bigger part probably if you're a Sixers fan, 160 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 4: eleven boards, eight assist amazing and seven blocks. And after 161 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 4: the game, he was asked, what would you tell your 162 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 4: son about this game if you know, looking back, this 163 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 4: is your career high, and he said, I'd probably tell 164 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 4: him that I had a fifty point quadruple double because 165 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 4: it was damn close. Yeah, he's gonna round up, you know, 166 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 4: elevenboards he went to it. Yeah, and they need it. 167 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 4: It's it's it's almost uh yeah, all the recipe for 168 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 4: a monstrous game. Because Harden was out, so that meant 169 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 4: when he was on the bench, the Sixers stuck. They're 170 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 4: minus seventeen with him on the bench, so he needed 171 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 4: to come out and play every single minute. And he's 172 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 4: a monster, an absolute monster. 173 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: I mean that's not hyperbole to say it was one 174 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,559 Speaker 3: of the greatest individual games we've ever seen in NBA history. 175 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 3: I know that's it's not, but fifty nine to eleven, 176 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 3: eight and seven in regulation is crazy. 177 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 5: It felt like watching what it must have been like 178 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 5: to watch Wilt Chamberlain because it did not matter who 179 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 5: the Jazz had out there. It's like market In and olynk, 180 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 5: come on, that's a joke for Joel Embiid if he 181 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 5: comes out with the right mindset, and he did, and 182 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 5: he dominated for the entire game. That's his career best game. 183 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 5: But it was like Embiid looked faster, stronger, bigger than 184 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 5: anybody else that the Jazz could throw out there. So 185 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 5: you're like, that's probably what it was like for Wilt Chamberlain, 186 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 5: but it was back to back games for Embiid. Do 187 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 5: it for an entire eighty two games and then you 188 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 5: are will But man, if you have a forty two 189 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 5: point game and it's your bad game from the weekend, 190 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 5: you're an easy winner. I did have a huge laugh though, 191 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 5: when he took the three pointer when he was on 192 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 5: fifty seven points, clearly trying to get sixty and took 193 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 5: like a spinning fade away three from two steps outside 194 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 5: almost cost the Jazz the gade, but clutch free throw 195 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 5: trash talk. He said he wanted to put his son 196 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 5: to bed, but guess what, his son was already in 197 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 5: bed got him. It goes to bed at seven every night. 198 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 5: My son goes to bed at seven thirty. That's why 199 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 5: I'm gonna lie to him about this. 200 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, they were just throwing bodies at him, multiple guys 201 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 4: in that fourth quarter. Well, at some point they were 202 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 4: just like, okay, let's get it out of his hands, 203 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 4: and Duck did a good job of getting him in 204 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 4: a position to get the ball back because no one 205 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,439 Speaker 4: else could score. Yeah, really the entire game, only one 206 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: other guy went to the free throw line for the 207 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 4: Philadelphia seventy six ers for two free throws. He just 208 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 4: did it, Oh, the whole thing. And yeah again when 209 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 4: he went to the bench, they stunk. So, yeah, it is. 210 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 4: I think you could put it up there in the 211 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 4: pantheon your trays, you know, implying that he doesn't do 212 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 4: it every single game is totally true. I mean, he 213 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 4: doesn't have to, he doesn't, but you could see like 214 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 4: he didn't. He wasn't doing it in the post. He's 215 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 4: doing in the mid post. And he's shaking guys, as 216 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 4: you said, like faster than guys. 217 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 218 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 4: On NFL Sunday, he looks like an NFL player. He's 219 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: so big, but he's shaking guards, he's shaking forwards out 220 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 4: there to get space and that that shot when it's pure, 221 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 4: it's sexy. 222 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,559 Speaker 3: And usually with Embid I mean not just the back 223 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 3: to back situation because of the schedule, but like we 224 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: always say, oh, like where did he go in the 225 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 3: fourth quarter? And this one he got stronger, as he said, 226 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 3: twenty six of his team's twenty seven down the stretch, 227 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 3: So feeling good. You know, maybe those little injuries that 228 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 3: had him nicked up there at the start of the season, 229 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 3: so he has appeared to shaking those and those are 230 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 3: big wins. I mean against the Hawks, against the Jazz, 231 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 3: to the better teams are so far early in the season, 232 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 3: and you know this was after they had lost a 233 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 3: bad one there on what Wednesday night or Thursday night 234 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: earlier in the week, midweek, and like the body language 235 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 3: looked bad for this team. We're wondering his doc River 236 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 3: is going to be around for the weekend, and embi 237 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 3: to make sure that he is at least with these performances, huge, 238 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 3: huge weekend from Joel Embiid, and the guy's averaging thirty 239 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 3: two points three points per game. That's fourth in the league. 240 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 3: I guess with Tatum, but there are just so many 241 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 3: guys putting up months or numbers when it comes to scoring. 242 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 4: That's how good he is. You can criticize him and 243 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 4: he can be dropping thirty points a game because it 244 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 4: feels like he could be doing more and it it 245 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 4: does suck at times though, when you're looking at the 246 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 4: Sixers big picture, they're seven and seven. Harden is out 247 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 4: and beat. It's gonna still have to, you know, put 248 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 4: together some monumental things here. The depth was supposed to be, 249 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 4: you know, the big thing that they did in the 250 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 4: off season with the Anthony Melton and PJ. Tucker. They'll 251 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 4: be fine. They've now got a hierarchy. I was saying it, 252 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 4: but it's still it's it's totally going through Harden or Embiid. 253 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 4: And hopefully Harden will be back soon. He'll shed that 254 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 4: matching valure and he is looking better in terms of 255 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: just being on the bench. He's dropped the walking boot, 256 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: so he should be playing soon because then he needs 257 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 4: the help. It sure looks like, all. 258 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 3: Right, Trey, what do you got for a winner of 259 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 3: the weekend? 260 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 5: Oh? You like points? I hear I like port Oh 261 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 5: winner of the weekend? Steph Carey for Friday's win against 262 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 5: the calves forty points, six threes, four rebounds by assist, 263 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 5: a steal in two turnovers. Great numbers, but it's really 264 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 5: the last minute eighteen of this game that gets Steph 265 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 5: the winner. Here down three hits a three to tie 266 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 5: things up. This is the late three pointer where he's 267 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 5: talking trash to the Cavs bench before the shot even drops. 268 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,599 Speaker 5: I like to see the innovation from Steph Curry. I 269 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 5: feel at this point right now, if you make a 270 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 5: corner or a wing three pointer, every single player in 271 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 5: the league right now is talking trash to the bench 272 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 5: if the shot goes in, every single one. But Steph, 273 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 5: we know, likes to do stuff on the balls in 274 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 5: the air, so he kind of joined those two things, 275 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 5: you know, celebrating before it went down and the trash talk. 276 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 5: Great to see. Next time down the court, a layu 277 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 5: to take a two point lead, the Cavs hit a 278 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 5: free throw, next Warriors possession, another three for Steph to 279 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 5: put him up by four. This is the clutch three 280 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 5: where he gave him the night Night celebration. Two clutch 281 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 5: celebrations in the final minute of this game. It was 282 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 5: an MVP like performance. He was the scoring leader in 283 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 5: the league after this game was done. Of course he 284 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 5: was past the next day because we have point inflation 285 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 5: right now. He's having his best season ever right now, 286 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 5: Steph Curry is, and unfortunately the Warriors need it because 287 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 5: stuff can only carry the Dubs to wins in home games. 288 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 5: Sunday night, it was decarrying Fox for the Kings winning 289 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 5: it in Sacramento. Another good game for Steph twenty seven, six, 290 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 5: four and three, but Golden State could not stop Fox 291 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 5: at all in the fourth quarter. Eleven points on five 292 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 5: of six shooting, a couple rebounds and assists the block 293 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 5: when he did miss. It was Demonta Sabonis on the 294 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 5: glass against the tiny Warriors team. Twenty five and twenty 295 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 5: two for Sabonis. But it's a lot of roast beef 296 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 5: had that huge put back late. Golden State now zero 297 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 5: to seven in road games this season. They turned the 298 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 5: ball over a ton. They don't rebound, as you saw 299 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 5: against the Kings there. They foul all the time. They've 300 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 5: had fourth quarter leads against the Hornets, Heat, Magic and 301 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 5: Kings and lost all of those games. And unfortunately it's 302 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 5: the veterans that are on the court in the late 303 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 5: fourth quarter here, So I don't know. Their bench has 304 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 5: been bad I think in general this season, but the 305 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 5: Warriors are just not quite having enough attention to detail 306 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 5: and not doing the little things. In the fourth quarter, 307 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 5: Steve Kerr said, we can't survive mistakes right now, and 308 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 5: that's what you saw. I thought against the Kings on 309 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 5: thats the bonus board. 310 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: So just so I have this right, two winners of 311 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 3: the weekend there, Curry. Curry went her incredible stuff there, 312 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 3: especially in the first game, and then the King's getting 313 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 3: some love. King's got to Oh my god, the Mike 314 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 3: Brown revenge Tour. What a week. Beat the Cavs on Wednesday, 315 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 3: the Lakers on Friday, and then the Warriors on Sunday, 316 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 3: and I think Mike Brown they play the uh the 317 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 3: Spurs coming up here too, so there's a little a 318 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 3: little coaching tree stuff there as well. But uh yeah, Sacramento, 319 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 3: this is this is great after that very Sacramento Kings 320 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 3: like start to the season where we were all pumps 321 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 3: coming in. They keep losing games, even they were they 322 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 3: were close and they were fighting them, but the defense 323 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 3: wasn't all that improved. And now they're like hitting their 324 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: stride here. And yeah, Fox was awesome in the fourth quarter. 325 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 3: I mean, you talk about attacking the rim and hit 326 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 3: a big three, and uh yeah, it's it's it's fun 327 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: to see as a longtime year and Fox supporter that 328 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 3: some of these wins are coming along with some of 329 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 3: these big stat lines and at least clutch shots. And 330 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 3: I thought Keith Murray was awesome too. In this game 331 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 3: against the wors He's hitting like pinned down threes coming 332 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 3: up top and it's like, whoa, Okay, I didn't know 333 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 3: you had that in your arsenal, but he had five threes. 334 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 3: Heard her helping he hit four threes. They just have 335 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: shooting now around Sabonis and his playmaking Fox taking over 336 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 3: Malik Monk off the bench with twelve. So the Kings 337 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 3: fire the laser. You like this laser beam they're shooting 338 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 3: off from a Sacramento after winds. 339 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, talk about I haven't talked about it. 340 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 3: I don't mind. 341 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 4: I do. I like it. That's it, that's all. 342 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 5: I've only seen one picture before they got any winds, 343 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 5: so I don't know. 344 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 3: Is it good. He had some pretty prominently purple laser 345 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 3: beam that's just firing up from there. YEA cool. 346 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 5: Cool. 347 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: I'm just good with things like that. 348 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 5: Just like lasers and me too, Yeah, just like. 349 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 4: Lit up monuments. Okay, back in Toronto, they would light 350 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 4: up the sea in Tower for any particular color depending 351 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 4: on the event. Lasers cool, new launched. 352 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 5: I feel like I feel like there was a lot 353 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 5: of skylights for new for whatever is. Let's like, let's 354 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 5: go to an event down at the Factory foundation was 355 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 5: it was that place called. 356 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 3: How do you feel about like getting like a really 357 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 3: bright spotlight outside of the classic factory here for every classic. 358 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, fire it up. It's a good idea. 359 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 6: The neighborhood would wonder what the hell? 360 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, but what if people showed up here? I don't 361 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: know about that. Think that you have any thoughts on 362 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 3: the Kings or Curry? 363 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, you guys. I'm so happy for you guys. You 364 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 4: got a five hundred team after twelve games. You should 365 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 4: be happy for the Kings. They're in the playoff there, Yeah, 366 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 4: slipped into night there. Yeah, the Fox block in the corner, 367 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 4: that was a phenomenal, just to see the extra efforts 368 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 4: happening to get Curry that he looked wide open, but 369 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 4: Fox to be able to leap out and get that. 370 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 4: The Warriors yet just extremely off. And uh, it was 371 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 4: odd too because I think the best defense that the 372 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 4: Warriors were playing where it was also at the free 373 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 4: throw line. The Kings just had bad free throw missed 374 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 4: a lot of free throw twelve and nineteen from the 375 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 4: line on Sunday. Expect him to lose that game. But yeah, 376 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 4: the attention to detail, I think is exactly right. The 377 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 4: Warriors have not won a game away from home. Very odd, Yeah, 378 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 4: very very odd. Even though Steph's doing a lot of 379 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 4: carrying And shout out to electrical keyboard on Reddit because 380 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 4: now we're using that Steph Carry nickname. 381 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 3: Let's see, this was my problem with. You just said 382 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 3: Steph's doing a lot of carrying, and I immediately think 383 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 3: he's palming the ball, he's getting away with someone. 384 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 4: Well, I didn't say Steph Carrey, Steph carry. That's true 385 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 4: my favorite spice. Actually, it's funny because my father in 386 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 4: law will say curry as in carry. Is there any 387 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 4: carry in that pasta? 388 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: What? 389 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: Well? 390 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 3: What he means? 391 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 4: It's weird because we're talking about Curry, but it's carry. 392 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 4: He just doesn't say it the way other people say it. 393 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 4: And now I have to say, well, did you know 394 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 4: that that's the hottest nickname for Steh Curry. Steph Curry 395 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 4: was Steph Curry. I know him as Steph Carry. 396 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 3: Went on the weekend to the Oklahoma City Thunder. They 397 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 3: scored two hundred and seventy seven points over the weekend, 398 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: no overtime periods. In two games against the Raptors and Knicks. 399 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 3: They scored two hundred and seventy seven points. On Sunday, 400 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 3: Josh Giddy, he's in Madison Square Garden and whenever he's there, 401 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: he just puts up a triple double twenty four to 402 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 3: twelve and ten for him. As a team, Okase shot 403 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 3: sixty two point five percent against the Knicks. And I 404 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 3: know we'll get to New York in the worst of 405 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 3: the weekend. But but, but, but the real reason I 406 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 3: want to talk about this team is I want to 407 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 3: lock in Shake Kills Alexander for the All Star Game. 408 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 3: I think this weekend stamped his his first All Star appearance. 409 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 3: I know it's early, it's only mid November games until February. 410 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 3: He probably break his ankle in his next game. It 411 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 3: will all be my fault. But scarcely he took like 412 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 3: it's so often now. He's the best player on the floor. 413 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 3: He'd had twenty one in the third quarter against the 414 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 3: Knicks there and blew the game open seventeen to two run. 415 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 3: It was sort of over there. His numbers this season 416 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: are are quite frankly eye opening. He's averaging thirty one 417 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 3: point one points per game, nearly six assists, four and 418 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: a half rebounds, and then the defense, which you've talked 419 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 3: about before, tests over two steals per game and then 420 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 3: a block and a half per Game's continuing to keep 421 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 3: these numbs up. You shooting fifty four percent from the floor, 422 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 3: thirty six percent from deep. Okay, You're like, whatever, it 423 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 3: doesn't take a lot. He knows it's not really his 424 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: game because he can get by anybody and get to anywhere, 425 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,160 Speaker 3: you know, from within the three point line to the rim. 426 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 3: So he barely takes any threes. And then he's ninety 427 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 3: three point four percent at the line when he gets 428 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 3: there because he's money there. He's automatic. Luca Curry, Ja 429 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 3: Morant are your three locks for the guard position? 430 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 4: And I think, oh, you're going deep. 431 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,680 Speaker 3: Well, I think what's happening here is there's like a 432 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 3: race between three Kentucky guards for like possibly the fourth 433 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 3: or fifth Bots, SGA, Booker and Fox. I think it's 434 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: like those are the three guys that you know. Lillard 435 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 3: is injured, so there's that right now. He's gonna come 436 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 3: back and he's still gonna put on monster number, so 437 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 3: he'll be in the mix. Don't get me wrong, but 438 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 3: it's those three. I almost want to include Jamal Murray, 439 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 3: but his numbers aren't there. They're winning him. 440 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 4: In Denver, Booker's in. 441 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,239 Speaker 3: And then it's SGA and Fox like battling it out here. 442 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 3: I think SGA, man, it's like, forget they're nine and four. No, 443 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 3: I know he's back. Yeah, yeah, I think is gonna 444 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 3: make it. I think he's gonna make it. This is 445 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 3: the first year. I mean he's probably gonna win Most 446 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 3: Improved too, because this is what if you make the 447 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: All Star team and your numbers go up like that 448 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 3: substantial and your team's at least you know DC in 449 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 3: which they are, then he probably has that in the bag. 450 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,719 Speaker 3: But man, he's just like so fun to watch too, right, 451 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it is like complete control of the game. 452 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 3: He never rushed you look strong as hell. Guys are 453 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 3: bouncing off him and he's like goes left every time 454 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 3: as I've talked about and nobody can stop him. 455 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 5: Steve Smith like game, to be quite honest, the way 456 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 5: he you know, he just uses little subtle shifts and 457 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 5: movements and doesn't necessarily have to rely on taking three pointers. 458 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 5: It's cool to see a guy who goes to the rim. 459 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 5: That literally the only question with SGA. It's not like 460 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 5: if he's an All Star talent and putting on numbers. 461 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 5: It's if he's gonna play enough and if the Thunder 462 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 5: will stay good enough. They started and six last season, 463 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 5: six and seven right now, you were obviously talking about 464 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 5: shake kill. Just Alexander as an All Star last year, 465 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 5: so we shall see keep him on the court, keep 466 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 5: him healthy because the Thunder, I don't know, they feel 467 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 5: a little different this year. You know, it feels like 468 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 5: they've got they've just leveled up their team to be 469 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 5: a twenty five to thirty win team rather than a 470 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 5: twenty five to twenty win team. And maybe that's the 471 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 5: thing that makes the difference, because the guy's balling right now. 472 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 473 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, And you always have guys that missed the All 474 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 4: Star Game because of injuries. There's an injury replacement or two. 475 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 4: If we're going deep we're thinking about it that way. 476 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 4: But I love, yeah, the old school game of the 477 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 4: Steve Smith reference getting into the paint. And also he 478 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 4: pulled the chair on RJ. Barrett. That was old school 479 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 4: to see RJ. Barrett just land on his buttocks. But yeah, 480 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 4: shake Gill's Alexandra looks so strong and I don't know 481 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 4: if part of it is he's wearing shorts. Shorts so 482 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 4: you see the quads. He's a real quadzilla out there. 483 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 4: You see him being able to get to whatever spot 484 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 4: he wants out there. It's key. Yeah, we'll get to 485 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 4: the Knicks. Obviously playing the Knicks helps, But will Shay 486 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 4: stay healthy the rest of the season, because they could 487 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 4: have kept him out if they were really if they're 488 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 4: really trying to tank. He didn't have to play at 489 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: the beginning of the season because there's rumors that he 490 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 4: you know, he was injured to be out for a while, 491 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 4: but he came back, just like we're seeing LaMelo Ball 492 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 4: come back. The Charlotte Hornets could be tanking, but everybody, 493 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 4: everybody wants a piece, everybody wants wins. There's point inflation, No, 494 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 4: that's for sure. 495 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 3: There are eight guys averaging over points per game right 496 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 3: now eight and there's like two more that are like 497 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: right under that. 498 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 4: When will Joe Biden stop pointing? 499 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 3: Let's keep it going here, let's go a whole of 500 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 3: the round. 501 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 4: Here we got, I got sneaky winner. Jose Alvarado. He's 502 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 4: a sneaky guy, the Pelicans backup guard. They were coming 503 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 4: off a disappointing loss to the Blazers without Damian Lillard, 504 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 4: and we're in danger of having a second consecutive disappointing 505 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 4: loss against Houston, this time on Saturday night. They're down six, 506 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 4: about eight minutes left. Well, that's when Josey Alvarado comes 507 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 4: to save the day. He truly did. After a Pelican's 508 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 4: free throw, the Rockets are inbounding under their own hoops, 509 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 4: so Kevin Porter Junior gets the ball a standard inbound. 510 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 4: This wasn't a Hosey Alvarado sneak out of the corner thing. 511 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 4: Josel Sorry, I'm sorry. Kevin Porter Junior had the ball. 512 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 4: He's looking around to see who he passed to, and 513 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 4: Jose Alvarado's just being pesky in the backcourt, pokes it loose, 514 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 4: scores off the steal, and that key the Pelicans comeback. 515 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 4: He was just monstrous. The rest of the way, he 516 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 4: brought the energy, hitting shots, getting steels. He played every 517 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 4: fourth quarter minute. His fourth quarter line eight points, forces, 518 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 4: two rebounds, three steals. But the most important part save 519 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 4: the best for last, hilarious ending, brandon ingram of the Pelicans. 520 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 4: He sealed. The Pelicans come back with a huge dunk, 521 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,120 Speaker 4: which I thought, well, you really, you're really destroying these guys. 522 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 4: Eighteen seconds left, you need to throw it down like that. 523 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 4: But that was just the start of it. They inbound 524 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 4: and Jose Alvarado, it's a eleven point game, it's eighteen 525 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 4: seconds left. He's in the corner and he does the 526 00:23:55,400 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 4: old grand theft Alvarado steal from behind, which hasn't got 527 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 4: a lot of pub usually usually we talk about it 528 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 4: steal under twenty four seconds left. You're doing something like that. 529 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 4: Oh that's an unwritten rule that I love it. Alvarado 530 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 4: was not done. He steals it, and then Kevin Porter 531 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 4: June doesn't let him get away. He's just pissed. He 532 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 4: gets into his face. They both get tossed from the 533 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 4: game immediately, and uh yeah, the Pelican's arenas going nuts 534 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 4: because this guy just lit the fourth quarter on fire, 535 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 4: absolutely hilarious. And it was him. It was him getting 536 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 4: a victory. You need those you need those kinds of guys, 537 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 4: that kind of energy. It's a long season, man, Yeah, absolutely, 538 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 4: So he did it. He got them a win and 539 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 4: screw the unwritten rules, rip them up. This a new age. 540 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 4: Flip bats get dumb steals in the twenty four seconds 541 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 4: under twenty four seconds left. I loved it. I loved it, 542 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 4: and that so did everybody else, So did Joel Myers, 543 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: and ever. 544 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 5: Vin didn't love it. It's fair he hated it. He's 545 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 5: a loser of the weekend to me forgetting that mad 546 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 5: about it. But also, I mean, honestly a little bit. 547 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 5: Alvarado is a little bit of a loser of the 548 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 5: weekend to me. But I saw a task out here 549 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 5: in the winners already, so he did have an awesome 550 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 5: fourth quarter. But I'm like that, that to me is fine. 551 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 5: Last year from Alvarado when he was a rookie, like 552 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 5: an undrafted rookie or was he a second round pick 553 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 5: out of him but a surprising rookie. 554 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 3: Now he's a little bit established. You just won the 555 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 3: game in. 556 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 5: The fourth quarter with your team. 557 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, at first, I was like you. I was like, 558 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 4: that's too much, but uh yeah, I bought it. I 559 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 4: bought it after a bit. 560 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: You want to talk about good nickname, that's the greatest nickname, 561 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 3: grand theft Alvarado A lot Trey. Who you got for 562 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 3: a winner of the weekend? Your second one? 563 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 5: Sorry, I was just looking at Posey Alvarado draft undrafted, 564 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 5: undrafted fella. But my second winner of the weekend gotta 565 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 5: be Luka. Doncic went seventeen for fifty in a couple 566 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 5: of losses last week. Didn't score thirty in either one 567 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 5: of those games, and people were saying, is he wearing down? 568 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 5: Spend less than a month into the season, is he 569 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 5: wearing down? No, No, he's not. Forty two points, thirteen rebounds, 570 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 5: tennis is two steals, a block, two turnovers, thirteen of 571 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 5: twenty two shooting, really fun win against the Blazer's a 572 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 5: big time bounce back game from the Donk and he 573 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 5: is now leading the league in scoring. But he did 574 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 5: actually get some help in the win over the Trailblazers. 575 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 5: Christian Wood was back after missing those couple of stinkers 576 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 5: from Luca. Nineteen points on seven to eleven shooting off 577 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 5: the bench, Tim Hardaway Junior sixteen points, three threes, five assists, 578 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 5: and Spencer Dinwoody hit back to back to back jacks 579 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. Scored twenty overall, hit six threes, 580 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 5: including those three backbreakers on the fourth quarter. This was 581 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 5: an awesome game though. Dave Willard was balling twenty nine 582 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 5: points twelve assists, Amfrety Simon's hit for twenty four points, 583 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 5: hit five threes, and Jeremy Grant has taken his game 584 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 5: to another level right now, thirty seven points in the 585 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 5: loss against the MAVs, five of nine from three. Stay 586 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 5: tuned for a new Sicico report because I'm loving the 587 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 5: way this guy is shooting the basketball. 588 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 3: Wow, Jeremy Grant's getting the Sicko report. H third team, 589 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 3: fourth team. This guy's been on several teams. 590 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, Thunder, Sixers, yep, Nuggets, Pistons. 591 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 4: You forget about the Thunder. 592 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, you forget about the Thunder days. You forget about 593 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 5: the Piston or the Sixers days a little bit, Yeah, 594 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 5: quite honest. But I mean I don't know. It might 595 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 5: be the oldest player to ever get a sicker of 596 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: a Portland There's only been two of them previous. 597 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 3: I can't wait. 598 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 4: No. Yeah, I was thinking that watching this game because 599 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 4: his drives. Sometimes he can shoot, but sometimes drives don't 600 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 4: look like they're going in, like he's just kind of 601 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 4: floating away, but he just flicks it up and somehow 602 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 4: they drop down. But this was a wild game going 603 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 4: into that fourth quarter. It's good to see Luca excelling 604 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 4: in the fourth quarters. That was more of the question 605 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 4: mark because his percentages have been dropping from half to 606 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 4: the third quarter to the fourth quarter. But he just 607 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 4: got held from Spencer Dinwiddie that that's a he's he's 608 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 4: one of those players that can just light on fire. 609 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:50,199 Speaker 4: Spencer gets hot, yeah, and he hit those those big threes, 610 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 4: and Jason kidd was doing a good job of not 611 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 4: having him one pass away from Luca. When he got hot, 612 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 4: he was a few passes away, so the defense can 613 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 4: rotate fast enough and then they cover Spencer, but he 614 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 4: was able to pass off to Reggie Bullock for three 615 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: on fire. Spencer's eleven point fourth quarter was really the 616 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 4: difference in this game. 617 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 3: Two other winners from the weekend, two other teams that 618 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 3: stayed undefeated over the weekend, The Wizards and the Celtics, 619 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 3: start with the Wizards. They swept their weekend back to 620 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 3: back against Utah and then Memphis. They got a little 621 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 3: lucky in the Memphis game because they were missing a 622 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,199 Speaker 3: lot of their key players. But still that's two of 623 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 3: the best teams in the Western Conference in terms of records. 624 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 3: Wizards have won four straight. They're eight and six. They're 625 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: doing all of this basically without Bradley Beal, who's missing time. 626 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 3: The bearded Porzingis twenty five in the game against Memphis. 627 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 3: Avdo with twenty one tied his career high. Could have 628 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 3: beat it if he made some free throws, but he 629 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 3: bricked a couple late. And Jordan Goodwin, who Jordan Goodwin 630 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: another strong showing ten and eight. This guy's a two 631 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 3: way on a two way contract. You wonder if they're 632 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 3: gonna like get that figured out there in Washington, because 633 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 3: he's adding something to them and they're winning some games here. 634 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 3: I know they did this last year too. Yeah, and 635 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 3: they shocked a lot of people. I'm not getting ahead 636 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 3: of myself saying the Wizards they are gonna be, you know, 637 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 3: the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference or anything. But 638 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 3: Porzingis is playing extremely, extremely well, like he if they 639 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 3: can keep this up, will be at least in the 640 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 3: conversation of making an All Star team, because his numbers 641 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: are there and they are winning some games and he's 642 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 3: like their leader right now with no bal And then 643 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 3: the Celtics, I feel they've gone under the radar all 644 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 3: year long, but they took care of Denver, they took 645 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 3: care of Detroit over the weekend, extended their win streak 646 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 3: to six straight games. They have the best offensive rating 647 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 3: in the league by a mile, by a mile, one 648 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 3: twenty point two offensive rating. Right now, they ranked number 649 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 3: one and three pointers made and attempted third and three 650 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 3: point percentage of thirty nine percent, number two in field 651 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 3: goal percentage, number three and free throw percentage. And a 652 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 3: lot of this is Tatum, who over the weekend averaged 653 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 3: thirty eight and a half points per game in the 654 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 3: two victories and too low. Yeah, I know, sorry, how 655 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 3: insane this weekend is guy scored thirty eight and a 656 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 3: half points per game in thirty nine minutes per game 657 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 3: over the two games over the weekend. And yeah, we 658 00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 3: have them like six or seven tier on our winners 659 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 3: can chart. Yeah, but in a footnote, I saw he's 660 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 3: got a Reddit nickname too. 661 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 5: You know what it is. It's also pun based.

Like their offensive production. 671 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 3: It's through the roof. 672 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, their offense is so good right now. They're like, 673 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 5: we were one of the best defenses in the league 674 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 5: of all time last year. We'll figure that out later. 675 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 5: Let's just score a bunch of points right now. And 676 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 5: it seems to be working. 677 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they definitely got that. Hey, we made 678 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 4: the NBA finals, so I will turn the defense up 679 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 4: a little bit later. It's calves like from when they're 680 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 4: going finals to finals to finals. No one should worry 681 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 4: about it. I don't think. 682 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, six straight wins that called me my sprongs, like, 683 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: oh yeah, a little wind streak going on here, taking 684 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 3: care of business. So yeah, Wizard Celtics had to throw 685 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 3: them some love. Any other any other dubs out there 686 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 3: for you guys from the weekend. 687 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 5: Darius Garland oh yeah, Darius Garland became the first fifty 688 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 5: point scorer in the league for about three hours until 689 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 5: Joel Embiid came. I mean, you were feeling bad for 690 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 5: Jason Tatum here we almost forgot Darius Garland uh spurring 691 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 5: the comeback against the timber Wolves. I guess D'Angelo Russell 692 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 5: probably gets a little bit of a winner of the 693 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 5: weekend as well for having his first good game of 694 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 5: the season and that went over the Cavs. Those are 695 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 5: a couple of nice games as well. 696 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 4: Something entered. 697 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: I mean obviously high scoring like you guys are saying, 698 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 3: but entertaining games like with these individual performances, some of 699 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 3: these close down the stretch, like like an awesome month 700 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 3: to the start of a season, which are sometimes like 701 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 3: like slugish here or there. You get some rough games 702 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 3: like like they're it feels few and far between when 703 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 3: you like sit down on any given night here to 704 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 3: fire up league pass, like you've got either monster performances 705 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 3: or like really close games down the stretch so you 706 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 3: can be bouncing around. 707 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 5: I guess you didn't turn on the balls last then, 708 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, well that was the thing that was nice 709 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 5: and they got blown out, so badly. I got to 710 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 5: turn in for Joel Embiid's incredible fourth quarter. 711 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 3: Well, I'll get to my raptors when we get to 712 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 3: the worst of the weekend too. Yeah, some dud performances 713 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 3: from our teams here from the Classic Afternoon. That's okay, 714 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 3: we got to your first break when we come back. 715 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 3: Losers of the weekend? JD, what do you got? Sweet 716 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:26,239 Speaker 3: dreams are meeting this? I gotta google, man, all right, 717 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 3: let's get to losers of the NBA weekend tasks. I 718 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: know you're googling. 719 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's unbelievable. It was a quick google. 720 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was right up there was that, right, oh yeah, 721 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 3: oh yeah, oh yeah. Okay, who do you have for 722 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:41,719 Speaker 3: a loser of the NBA weekend. 723 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 4: Let's go to Sunday Afternoon you mentioned, okay, see destroying 724 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 4: destroying the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden. Now, 725 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: the next came out hot forty eight points in the 726 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 4: first quarter. Things are looking good. Then, okay, so he 727 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 4: got hot in the second. Okay, let's fine. An NBA 728 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,960 Speaker 4: team will fight back. Isaiah Joe bauming away from beyond 729 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 4: the line, throwing Robinson earl bombing away as well. They 730 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 4: had forty three points in the second quarter. Okay, all right, 731 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 4: but they had all the confidence in the world going 732 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: into the locker room. You expect the next to come 733 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 4: out a little jab jab in the third quarter, a 734 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 4: little bit of effort, no, nothing. They didn't stop them 735 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 4: at all. They let him score another forty three in 736 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 4: the third quarter. Sga shake gillis Alexander doing whatever he wanted, 737 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 4: twenty one points in the third quarter. Tibbs put Quentin 738 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 4: Grimes on him. Throw that body on him. He was 739 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 4: a non touchable in trade negotiations for a reason. But 740 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 4: Tibbs fooled me. Quentin Grimes is a situational player. Apparently, 741 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 4: Well that's the situation. 742 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 3: RJ. 743 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 4: Barrett only played two second half minutes. What's going on there? 744 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 4: Tib said. The other group was getting them back in 745 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 4: the game. They didn't get back in the game. They 746 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 4: got destroyed anyway. The Thunder They came in a bad 747 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 4: three point shooting team, twenty ninth in the league at 748 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 4: thirty one percent. They started sixteen of twenty five before 749 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 4: slowing down somewhat so going from like sixty four to 750 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 4: fifty five percent. Josh Giddy another triple double in Madison 751 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 4: Square Garden twenty four to twelve assists, ten boards, two 752 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 4: career games there, two triple doubles. He was having his 753 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 4: way and it got former All Star Wally's Zerbiak a 754 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 4: little peeve after the game. JD. I do think we 755 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 4: have the clip of Zerbiak going off about Josh Giddy. 756 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,399 Speaker 2: Josh Kitty's like kitty giddy, giddy, gitty giddy, triple double, 757 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 2: triple double through the lane, just doing whatever the heck 758 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 2: he wants. 759 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: Video. 760 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 4: That's a good video. 761 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 3: That's a great clip, Thank you. I gotta see that 762 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 3: a couple of times this season after a Pig Kiddy game. 763 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 3: I think from Thunderbets. 764 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 4: While he's could be on no dugs, I think, sir, sir, 765 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 4: what's got some no ducks? By Josh Gitty is like 766 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 4: the voice goes on going through the lane on MSG network. 767 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 4: He's right, that's the analysis. Yeah, the guy was just 768 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 4: like giddy, giddy, giddy doing one. They got They got 769 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 4: an flow in that second quarter and Giddy hit that 770 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 4: shot from the corner, which you didn't expect Josh Gatty 771 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 4: to hit, you know, rattled in Polkashevski's got. These had 772 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 4: the bounces going in and they could talk trash to 773 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 4: the next bench. What happens in the third quarter? Nothing? 774 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 4: And that was the disappointing thing with this next team 775 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 4: they want. On Friday, they beat the Pistons, but they're 776 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,359 Speaker 4: just one up, one down, one up, one down. And 777 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 4: although TIBs is playing some of the kids that he 778 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 4: should be playing Quentin Grimes and they should be fighting more. 779 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 4: So that was disappointing to see them give up one 780 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 4: hundred and forty four. 781 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 3: My god, I hope, I hope Tibbs took some next 782 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 3: Evos last night to them sleep, because I can't imagine 783 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 3: just stopping around his house Feuman mad that they gave 784 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 3: up one in regulation to okay, see, I mean a 785 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 3: little weird decision put Derreck Rose on SGA. I will 786 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:50,840 Speaker 3: say that it's like, okay, sure, good luck with that. 787 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 3: But I wonder how hot the hot seat is there 788 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: for TIBs. I mean, I know there's six and seven. 789 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 3: It's not bad and right they are in the Eastern 790 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 3: Conference mix, but uninspired and yeah, definitely confusing with some 791 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 3: of his lineup moves and who is getting burned and 792 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 3: stuff like that. Yeah, they keep dropping games, you know, 793 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 3: that'll get louder and louder of like, oh, well, Tips, 794 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 3: they've tuned him out the classic Tips thing, and they've 795 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 3: moved on, and maybe someone will move over in the chair. 796 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 3: They'll get somebody, but we'll see. Any thoughts on the 797 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:18,800 Speaker 3: Knicks sort of rough weekend. 798 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 5: Eighty six points in the second and third quarters. That's 799 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 5: like an entire games basically. So yeah, now the Knicks are, 800 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 5: you know, bottom half of the league in offense, bottom 801 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 5: ten in the league in defense, but they're right around 802 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 5: five hundred. So it's like, this is probably what the 803 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 5: Knicks are going to be. You know, they'll lose some 804 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 5: ugly ones, they'll win some games you maybe don't think 805 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 5: they should win, or they'll pick up a win against 806 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 5: the team that they should beat, like the Pistons on Friday. 807 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 5: But yeah, I think I would like to see a 808 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,479 Speaker 5: little more from Marj Barrett. It's weird that he didn't 809 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,720 Speaker 5: get that many minutes. He hasn't had a strong start 810 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 5: to the season. Grimes is kind of struggling as well, 811 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 5: coming back from an injury. But I don't know. To me, 812 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 5: it's more important for your young guys to get a 813 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 5: taste and to grow a little bit as a team 814 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 5: rather than have a ton of success here. So I 815 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 5: don't know, I don't know. They got a five game 816 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 5: road trip coming up here. We'll see how they do 817 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 5: on that one. Because there's some decent teams they're going 818 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 5: to be playing in. There's some stinkers. So if the 819 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 5: if this is an zero for five road trip, that 820 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 5: might be the end. 821 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they'll have to get some w's here. And 822 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 3: they missed Mitchell Rominson. I say this all the time 823 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 3: of the Knicks. He's always injured, so he's always out, 824 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 3: so we can always say it. They do. They miss him, 825 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 3: his sort of presence at least in there. It's a 826 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 3: little bit of a defensive identity. 827 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 4: But especially with their perimeter defense being yeah, pretty saloon dory, 828 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 4: they just they just let guys go. And that's why 829 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 4: I think Quentin Grimes would help. I mean, they have 830 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 4: Camradish in there, he's playing minutes. But yeah, that's why 831 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 4: Urgia Berrett sad I thought as well, anyway, everybody's sitting, 832 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 4: everybody's sitting. Everybody take a turn on the bench, because 833 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 4: no one can guard on that team. 834 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 3: All right, try let's keep it going. Who you got 835 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 3: for loser the weekend. 836 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I kind of feel like even with the Knicks 837 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 5: and with my loser here, it's a little tough to 838 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 5: find losers this weekend because there were so many good winners. 839 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 5: So a default l goes to the Los Angeles Clippers 840 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 5: because they have a two point lead with about eight 841 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,240 Speaker 5: minutes left in the fourth quarter of their game against 842 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 5: the Nets. But the Nets one on a twenty to 843 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 5: two run over the next five minutes, mainly because Seth 844 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 5: Curry caught fire. He hit three threes during the run 845 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,800 Speaker 5: pushed the Nets to four and one without Kyrie Irving 846 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 5: at the time, now in four and two after losing 847 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 5: to the Lakers on Sunday, but a great run for Curry. 848 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,800 Speaker 5: A week loser, though, I will say, because the Clippers 849 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 5: had won five of six and they just kind of 850 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 5: went cold here, I thought in the fourth quarter. Some 851 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 5: good news though for the Clippers. No Kawhi Leonard still 852 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 5: at this point, but he's playing five on five now. 853 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 5: Tylo said he looked pretty good, but they still got 854 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 5: a ways to go. Lobbery over at the Athletic is 855 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 5: speculating it'll be the first week of December for his return. 856 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 5: Between now and then they've got some tough games because 857 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,399 Speaker 5: they play in the Western Conference, so you're never gonna 858 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:50,280 Speaker 5: be able to dodge everybody. But they've also got the Rockets, Pistons, Spurs, 859 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 5: and Pacers. If they're able to keep tread and water, 860 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,520 Speaker 5: they'll probably be fine. The defense is there usually when 861 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:58,040 Speaker 5: they're not giving up a twenty to two run in 862 00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter, but the offense has just been bad. 863 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 5: I think that's really what happened in this loss to 864 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 5: the Nets. They just went super cold. Paul George couldn't 865 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 5: find a shot, So an ugly loss certainly for the Clippers. 866 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 5: Good stuff from the Nets to honestly turn their season 867 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 5: around after Nash was gone, after Kyrie Irving was gone. 868 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 5: We'll see what happens whenever he actually comes back. But 869 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 5: you know, I'm milk with toast loser here for the 870 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 5: La Clippers. 871 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I watched that game and the offense did 872 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 4: it kind of fell apart. They are a team that 873 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 4: doesn't have a lot of guys that penetrate. It is 874 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 4: a jump shooting team, and that's exactly what happened at 875 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 4: the end of the fourth quarter. But to see Paul 876 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 4: George go in there and get slammed by Nick Klason. 877 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 4: That block there was huge. He said it was top 878 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 4: five of his career because it was, you know, a big, 879 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,279 Speaker 4: big moment in a game and a big player that 880 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 4: he did it against. It is odd to see the 881 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 4: Nets getting it together. Seth Curry's emergence from his ankle 882 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 4: injury was big twenty two in this one. And yeah, 883 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 4: they lost to the Lakers on Sunday. Very proud of 884 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 4: us for not really talking about the Lakers victory. Good 885 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 4: for us. 886 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 5: Anthony Davis that monster game he did. 887 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 4: He did, but yeah, strange. The only the only thing 888 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 4: I want to say about the Sunday game. Kevin Durant 889 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,800 Speaker 4: Lebron James didn't play again. They haven't played since Christmas 890 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 4: Day twenty eighteen. 891 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:17,440 Speaker 3: Against each other, against each other. 892 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is weird. Anyways, the Clippers I thought watching 893 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 4: that game as well, they had they had to pull 894 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 4: it out, but they desperately need Kawhi to come back. 895 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 4: And then reading the story from Law Murray, who covers 896 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 4: the Clippers for the Athletic and him projecting December third 897 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 4: as his return date even though he's already playing five 898 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,919 Speaker 4: on five, I thought, man, that feels like a long 899 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 4: time from now two weeks. But that's a very clipper, 900 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: it's a very qui thing. Yeah, I mean, so he's 901 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 4: probably right. There's some some days off where he can 902 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 4: come back, and it's I know that they can be 903 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,440 Speaker 4: fine if he comes back then, but who knows if 904 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 4: he'll be one hundred percent. I think you still got 905 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 4: to remain extremely skeptical. But I know he did it 906 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 4: to the Spurs. He came back and he won a championship, 907 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 4: So who knows With Kawhi. 908 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 3: Weekend loser has to go to the Toronto Raptors, who 909 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 3: went oh and two over the weekend Friday and Saturday night. 910 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 3: Friday against OKAC was abysmal. You rarely see Nick Nurse 911 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 3: wave the white flag and just bring in like the 912 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 3: deep bench and say, okay, we're not winning this one. 913 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 3: That's what he did though, and they got their asses 914 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 3: handed to them by the Thunder. They had eight players. 915 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 3: Thunder did score double figures for the first time in 916 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 3: franchise history. They had a Canadian kicking their ass and 917 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 3: it was an SGA. It was Eugene Omu Ruyi. Yeah, 918 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 3: you might drop a who on that who, a two 919 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 3: way player from Toronto area, but he had a career, 920 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 3: had twenty two points as Okac crushed the Wraps. Eugene, 921 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 3: a guy named Eugene. 922 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 4: Just let your ass up that you're gonna drop a Eugene. 923 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 3: So there was that, and then they followed up the 924 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 3: Raps did playing the Pacers on Saturday. They're in this 925 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 3: game obviously much more of a fight. Nick Nurse made 926 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 3: some lineup changes that in there Otto Porter in the 927 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 3: starting lineup, like, look, the Raptors, I should have said 928 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 3: this at the start. There is no Pascal Siakam, who's 929 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 3: their all NBA player. Fred van Vliet was in that 930 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 3: Thunder game. Then he was out because he's sick. This 931 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,280 Speaker 3: guy's just straight up like sick. They say it's non COVID, 932 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 3: but I don't know. There's a bug going around here 933 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 3: in Atlanta. I guess it's going around up in Toronto too. 934 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 3: Maybe the whole team is sick, and that's what happened 935 00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 3: on the weekend. But Van Vliet missed that second game 936 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,959 Speaker 3: because of the illness, and they put up a fight. 937 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 3: They're in this game going into the fourth quarter, and 938 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 3: then they just went ice cold. They shot six to 939 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 3: twenty one. They missed eight to nine three point attempts 940 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 3: and they fell to the Pacers, who did a lot 941 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 3: more work from three point land. In terms of it 942 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 3: was a bit of a math game there that Toronto 943 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 3: lost this one. And I know a lot of Raptors 944 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,720 Speaker 3: fans are going, what's going on with Scotty Barnes because 945 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,760 Speaker 3: he has not looked right, especially these last few games. 946 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 3: Is it sort of the bum ankle there, maybe a 947 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 3: little knee injury there. Should he even be playing? People 948 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 3: are wondering because it's so year though, because at times 949 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 3: in games he looks dominant, but then he is checked 950 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 3: out and non existent for a bunch of other portions 951 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 3: of the game. Defensively, he's like sort of lost at 952 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 3: times he's looked I mean, this has not been a 953 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 3: great second year here for Scotty Barnes because I think 954 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 3: Raptors fans do this. They get way ahead of themselves 955 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 3: and they appoint the guy like, oh, he's gonna be 956 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 3: all MBA, look at the trajectory and you know he's 957 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,399 Speaker 3: a second year guy and he's struggling, yeah a lot. 958 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 3: And it could be because of injuries, it could not be. 959 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,800 Speaker 4: But absolutely he is struggling. I don't mind the Passcal injury. 960 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 4: For the hope that Scottie Barnes finds his way, although 961 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 4: it's awful for you know, Passcal's rhythm and growth because 962 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 4: he was playing at a ridiculous level. Yeah, but just 963 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 4: some hope that Scottie Barnes finds his way because he 964 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 4: is Yeah, he does float right now. It's doesn't look. 965 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 3: He just doesn't look aggressive at times, and in this game, 966 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 3: especially when you've gotten no Sedakaman Van Fleet, he sort 967 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 3: of has to be way more aggressive. He's a second 968 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 3: yar place. You're asking a lot morong. But expectations are 969 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 3: high as rookie of the Year and obviously we know 970 00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 3: we can do it. It's just trying to put it 971 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 3: together there for forty minutes of a forty eight minute game. 972 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,800 Speaker 3: And Gary Trent Junior has been brutal for the Raptors. 973 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 3: He can't hit a shot and that's all Gary Trent 974 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,360 Speaker 3: Junior is really out there to do. He can't hit 975 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 3: a shot. He's hit one three point over his last 976 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 3: three games. I mean, it's been very bad in the 977 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,919 Speaker 3: month of November and at times they're like they're hoping 978 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 3: Gary Trent Junior can create for them and he's not. 979 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 3: That's not his game either, So it's it's rough right 980 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 3: now for the Raps. They're five hundred and again, you 981 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 3: know you're missing your best player, your best two players. 982 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 3: That's your chanceers are gonna be slim. But it's not 983 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 3: inspiring with this team right now, and a big part 984 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 3: of it, and I think Raps fans are like, oh, 985 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 3: we thought we thought Scotty would be carrying us to 986 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,839 Speaker 3: some of these wins when guys were out. 987 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 5: It does feel like he's playing like barely out of 988 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 5: position as well, right And I wonder if that's part 989 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 5: of it, because he's taken a lot more three pointers 990 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,799 Speaker 5: this year and taking fewer free throws. So to me, 991 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 5: that just says you're not in the lane as much 992 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 5: because you're gotta be a little bit of a point 993 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 5: guard for the Raptors and that's probably not necessarily his 994 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 5: go to position, but they've needed it since they don't 995 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 5: really have the depth off the the bench and that 996 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 5: Van Vleid has missed a little bit of time here. 997 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,959 Speaker 5: Siakam obviously is a big creator player for them as well, 998 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 5: so with him going out of the lineup, you've been 999 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 5: asking Scottie to be a little bit more of a playmaker. 1000 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 5: I don't know. He just needs to get back to 1001 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 5: kind of like scrapping and getting junk yard dog kind 1002 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 5: of buckets and then maybe his efficiency ticks up as well. 1003 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 5: The silver lining is that Fred van Blied only had 1004 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,200 Speaker 5: to play twenty eight minutes this weekend due to illness 1005 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 5: and getting blown out. They got to manage this guy's 1006 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 5: minutes because you see how important he is to their offense. 1007 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 3: Yep, no, for sure. And it is weird just to 1008 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 3: see the straight up sickness, the illness. You know, I'm 1009 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 3: feeling good man, not the flu it's. 1010 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 4: Going around though. Yeah, it is a lot. It seems 1011 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 4: to be happening in the NBA. Although the Reps have 1012 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 4: a fourth quarter sickness. They can't score at times in 1013 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter, especially without who he just mentioned. But 1014 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 4: it does happen to the reps, and that's that was 1015 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:51,240 Speaker 4: the hope with Scotty. Just be the point guard, hey, Scotty, 1016 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 4: and you're never a point guard. But he was doing 1017 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 4: it at times last year. He was running the offense 1018 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 4: at times, but it was really in ah okay, now 1019 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 4: it's my turn to run the offense. Wasn't a thirty 1020 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 4: minute type thing. So, yeah, we annoyed guys in Toronto. 1021 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 5: That's what we do. 1022 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 4: It's a little early, it's a little early to annoint him, 1023 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,520 Speaker 4: but it feels like it's coming. 1024 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 3: It's coming. You got to go through the growing pains 1025 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 3: in this league. So it's just all how you like 1026 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 3: react to it and try and get better. But I 1027 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 3: just like, I don't love how he's playing sort of 1028 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 3: disinterested on the defensive end. That that part. You know, 1029 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 3: you're you're the youngest, generally, the most athletic guy out there, 1030 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 3: like you got to be locked in on that end, 1031 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 3: and he's like the guys are like blowing by like 1032 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 3: back door cuts on him. He's sleeping. Maybe he's too 1033 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 3: thinking about the offensive end too much. I'm not sure, 1034 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,319 Speaker 3: but uh, wrap seven and seven and uh, I think 1035 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 3: a deserving loser of the week here despite all the 1036 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 3: injuries to these guys, which does suck any other losers got. 1037 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 5: All he does is win, win, win, no matter what. 1038 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,319 Speaker 3: Oh boy, but I gotta give a loser of. 1039 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,840 Speaker 5: The weekend to DJ Khalen's handles. Unfortunately, he showed up 1040 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 5: at the Miami Heat game as he often does. Yes, 1041 00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 5: he had a pillow for his shoes was funny. And 1042 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 5: at one point he just got to get on the 1043 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 5: court and take a three pointer, one of the perks 1044 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,760 Speaker 5: of the game. I don't even mind missing the shots, 1045 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 5: to be quite honest with you. But he gets on 1046 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,880 Speaker 5: the mic and he says, I'm nice with it, okay, 1047 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 5: And then he dribbles like Stanley from the Office got 1048 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 5: the chicken wing out here. 1049 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 4: It was just rare. 1050 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 5: It up for the three. 1051 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 3: Shot. 1052 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,320 Speaker 5: It's just the shot of He does like one dribble 1053 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 5: with the right hand and missus. 1054 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 3: All good, Miamy. 1055 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 4: He did make. 1056 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 5: But this hand hand on the knee, dribbling only right hand, 1057 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:50,320 Speaker 5: burning the mask. Good stuff, good weird stuff. 1058 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:54,840 Speaker 4: So much cringe, so much. Also, the the handing of 1059 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:59,760 Speaker 4: the ring over to the MC. He gets up and 1060 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 4: and like you said, he's just gonna shoot a shot. 1061 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 4: It wasn't like a contest. Just man gonna shoot a shot. 1062 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 4: He takes off his pinky ring and hands it to 1063 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 4: his holder. That didn't affect anything, that didn't the big diamond. 1064 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 4: You hold this while I pull up my pants and 1065 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 4: fire a ball. So much cringe, you guys, like the 1066 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 4: pillow under the shoes, I mean, but. 1067 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 5: It loses a little something for me. The pillow does. 1068 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 5: It's a funny visual when you see the pillow on 1069 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 5: the sideline. But seeing like the pre game, having to 1070 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 5: carry the pillow around with you, I don't like that. 1071 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:40,440 Speaker 5: You gotta get a pillow. 1072 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 3: He's got to be a pillow. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, 1073 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 3: you can't bring the pillow. Yeah, you weren't a fan 1074 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 3: of it. 1075 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 4: Well, I guess, but when you see the entire package 1076 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,959 Speaker 4: when he comes out there and the hand on the knee, 1077 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:57,959 Speaker 4: I didn't notice the hand on drib. 1078 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 3: So Stanley like, great call, all right, too good. Those 1079 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 3: are our winners and losers of the NBA weekend. I'm 1080 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 3: sure we're missing a few. Let us know here in 1081 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 3: the stream. Team let us know in the comments or 1082 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,279 Speaker 3: tweet them in at no dunk Saint gotta take one 1083 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,839 Speaker 3: more break when we come back. Pick them results and tweet. 1084 00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 4: Of the night. 1085 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 3: All right, pick them results from Friday night, we had 1086 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 3: the Wolves Grizzlies game. Memphis was favored by four and 1087 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 3: a half points, so they had to win by five 1088 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 3: and more than they did. Took care of business in 1089 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 3: the end. That's a win for me, it's win for 1090 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 3: Trey that's an l for taste. I've rough November here, 1091 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 3: you bet after your big win in October, I'm six 1092 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,279 Speaker 3: and two, Trey four and four, task two and six. 1093 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 3: What's tonight's game? 1094 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 4: Duayane Casey our old friend the Raptors boy visiting the 1095 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:46,760 Speaker 4: Pistons and Dwayne Casey head coach owns Toronto. It's amazing, 1096 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,919 Speaker 4: But they're five and a half point dodds at home 1097 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 4: to other Raptors. So you jumped on the Pistons. That 1098 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 4: makes sense. Trey jumped on the Pistons, and I just 1099 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 4: love bludgeoning myself with a terrible, terrible month. I'm just 1100 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 4: gonna keep going to win by six? Yeah, why not? 1101 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 4: That's a big line. It's a big, big, big one. 1102 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:05,799 Speaker 3: Freddie back. 1103 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 4: I expect the Raps to be back. I'm not sure 1104 00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 4: if Freda is back. I just don't care. I'm just 1105 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 4: going for although. Yeah, the Pistons, you know, they play alright, 1106 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 4: they should be all right. But I just expect the 1107 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 4: Raps after that dismal weekend two losses, to be back. 1108 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 3: But you would hope so. But Dwayne Casey, man, he 1109 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 3: always beats the Raps. That is a weird line. It 1110 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 3: should be a little closer in my opinion. 1111 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a big one. 1112 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 5: It's a big one, Kate, I don't think so. 1113 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, that's true. 1114 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 4: Yeah he missed Friday. 1115 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 3: All right, let's get to tweet of the night. 1116 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 4: Tweet of the night.
