53
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 4: get into the basketball. We had another Wedggie. The pace

54
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 4: is back high cast for the season, this one Isaiah

55
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,640
Speaker 4: Jackson with the block Weggie recovering there nicely on a

56
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 4: Gary Harris layup attempt to stick it in Orlando.

57
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 7: Extremely nicely recovery by Isaia Jackson can come from way

58
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 7: out from the stricted area, like two feet. Check that

59
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 7: Weggie tracker. How far has a man jumped to create

60
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 7: a WEGGI? I mean that is far.

61
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,399
Speaker 4: Oh you're saying we have dunk scores. Let's get weggie scores.

62
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 7: Well, you can actually measure a distance between a player's

63
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,239
Speaker 7: foot and the rim. Yeah, the dunk scores. I don't

64
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 7: know if that's really all that.

65
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 4: We had low dunk scores last night, though, Jalen Green

66
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 4: had a bunch of them. Okay, still keep my eye

67
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 4: on it. Anything over one hundred.

68
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, they're cool now. Yeah, well, Jalen Green, you're

69
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 6: not kidding man. Three of the top five.

70
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 5: That's huge.

71
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, never seen that before.

72
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 5: Which ia you the best dunk of the night.

73
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, but again low dunk score. Let's get into the

74
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 4: games because we got a ton to talk about here,

75
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 4: and then we'll do sort of a look back on

76
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 4: the last week really of the NBA season, talking about

77
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 4: some under the radar performances and surprises and stuff like that.

78
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 4: But Pallo banc Caro best night of his career on

79
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 4: Monday night. We watched it on playback. Shout out to

80
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 4: everybody that joined us. Tied the Orlando Magic record for

81
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 4: points and a half. Scored thirty seven through the first

82
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 4: two quarters against the Pacers, finished with a career high fifty,

83
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 4: tying the fifth highest scoring effort in Magic history. Trey

84
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 4: Kirby wants to get the nickname Big Rig up on

85
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 4: Palo Bancaro's basketball reference page. Honk, Honk, Come on the

86
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 4: Big Rig.

87
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 5: I love it.

88
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 6: The guy is just running people over in the lane.

89
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 6: You know, the guards were a little too short to

90
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 6: be guarding polo and the jumper was on for him

91
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 6: last night. And then all of the bigs, all the

92
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 6: front court players for the Indiana Pacers, they're just too

93
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 6: light in the shorts to deal with hum big rig.

94
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 6: He did hit the too small at one point on

95
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 6: a take I think in the fourth quarter where he

96
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 6: just rumbled straight to the lane and finished. But I

97
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 6: do think he could use like the pretending you're honking

98
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 6: a horn as a celebration.

99
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 5: Good it would catch on.

100
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 6: You know, we just talked with Honey fi Abdura kieb.

101
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 6: We need new kinds of fun nicknames. That's some creativity

102
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 6: in the NBA. I'm giving you one here. But man,

103
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 6: what in a performance from Palo Bonkaro. He's had an

104
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 6: awesome start to this season. There's not a lot of

105
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 6: guys that are PLO size who have his skill level.

106
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 6: He's been a great playmaker this season. He's averaging a

107
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 6: career high a career high six assists per game, also

108
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 6: a career low one point eight turnovers per game, really

109
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 6: helping his efficiency. He's not going to shoot the ball

110
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 6: as well as he has to start this season. He

111
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 6: was on fire last night as well, but he's getting

112
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 6: a lot of free throw attempts. Maybe they're a little high,

113
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 6: but this guy that draws a ton of contact, he's

114
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 6: really hard to guard. So I don't know if he's

115
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 6: gonna finish the season. What's he at right now? He's

116
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 6: at like a twenty eight and a half points per game,

117
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 6: nine rebounds, six assists. I still think he could easily

118
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 6: be a twenty five point per game score this season

119
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 6: with the way he's shooting the ball and you know,

120
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,679
Speaker 6: the free throws he generates.

121
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 5: Biggering in today's NBA.

122
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,119
Speaker 7: I wonder if it'll stick, just because modern day NBA

123
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 7: we don't really have big post players.

124
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 5: I know he does run over in a post player, No,

125
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 5: I know.

126
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 4: I know it's trucking through guys not a couple times

127
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 4: in that game that we watched.

128
00:05:58,880 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 5: I know.

129
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 7: There's just not a lot of truckers in today's NBA.

130
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 7: I guess, I mean it could.

131
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 6: You could have a lot of truckers in today's NBA.

132
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 5: They do it really, yeah, for sure.

133
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 7: Although it was awesome to see him in the fourth

134
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,159
Speaker 7: quarter do that to aaron Ne Smith and basically say

135
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 7: to the referees, pick your play your fowler here, who

136
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 7: is it? I mean we're both run into each other.

137
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 7: I'm having the game of my fricking career. You got

138
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 7: to give it to aaron Ne Smith, who was very

139
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 7: angry and fouled out because of it. But that was

140
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 7: awesome to see. What was also awesome to see was

141
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 7: the depth this Orlando Magic team has, because that was

142
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 7: the big question, you know, last year and leading into

143
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 7: this year. They gave Franz Wagner that big, big money.

144
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 7: They gave big gig money, just big money. They gave

145
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 7: KCP that big contract. And after that thirty seven point

146
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 7: first half for Paul Boncarro, he slowed down to the

147
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 7: third quarter because the Pacers started doubling.

148
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, they started finally started doubling them a little bit.

149
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 5: What are we gonna do?

150
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 7: They lost Franz Wagner in the first half to illness,

151
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 7: and then third quarter Jones Sucks, who did have a

152
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 7: great game, did start to slow down, and so they

153
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 7: were looking for somebody else to do it. Sugs helped

154
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 7: out a little bit, and then Anthony Black was watrous

155
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 7: in the end of the fourth quarter, hit two threes.

156
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 7: The young kid drafted at nineteen, how he's twenty, still

157
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 7: got a baby face and was put in the corner

158
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 7: each corner and hit a three in each side, So

159
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 7: huge for him as he grows as a player in

160
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 7: this Magic team does have some depth. Even though we

161
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 7: were listening to the broadcast, We're listening to the Pacers

162
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 7: broadcast and Quinn Buckner was saying, we.

163
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 5: Got more players in them.

164
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 7: The Pacers broadcasts just saying we're deeper than them, and

165
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 7: it is absolutely true. However, the Orlando Magic team has

166
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 7: just bought on, all in on their guys and Wagner

167
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 7: Bancaro now Anthony Black who's their backup point guard instead

168
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 7: of Mark el Full too, they decided to let go.

169
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,559
Speaker 7: So a really really fun game between these two teams

170
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 7: that feel like they're going to be rivals for a

171
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 7: long time. Yeah, they both had forty seven wins last

172
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 7: year and it's not going away. The Pacers and the

173
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 7: Magic just have bought into both their teams, so they're fun.

174
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 4: Pello Bancaro sixteen for twenty six from the floor, fifteen

175
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 4: for twenty two at the free throw line. So we

176
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 4: left a lot of points on the board, but thirteen boards,

177
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 4: nine assists. Last night. He had two blocks as well,

178
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 4: and yeah, it was funny like he just had the

179
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 4: jumper going, like everything was going in the first half

180
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: and they were not running a second guy at him.

181
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 4: Sort of was a little perplexing what the Pacers were

182
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 4: doing there, but then started to do it, and yeah,

183
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 4: it was gonna be other guys that had to step up.

184
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 4: Youre right about Anthony black Task. I think he hit

185
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 4: a three from both corners down the stretch there, you know,

186
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 4: wide open, but gotta knock him down and gotta keep

187
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 4: him on us. And right now, we'll get to it

188
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 4: a little bit later when we talk about surprises and

189
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 4: trends and stuff like that. But like the Magic, the

190
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 4: offense looking real good. They're three point shooting looking real good.

191
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 4: They were the worst last year in the league, so

192
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 4: they've improved there. But when you look at other fifty

193
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 4: point games in Magic history, you got McGrady with the

194
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 4: sixty two back in two thousand and four, we got

195
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 4: Shack with a fifty three point game in nineteen ninety four.

196
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 4: Nick Anderson, that one always catches everybody by surprise. He

197
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 4: had a fifty point game against the New Jersey Nets

198
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 4: in ninety three, and then McGrady has like three other

199
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 4: fifty point games. But Pallo on the list now, and

200
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 4: it feels like to me there will be maybe another

201
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 4: one or two from Paolo this season when he's cooking

202
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 4: like that and get into the line. We canna have

203
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 4: another fifty point game this season.

204
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 7: I think for him, this is clearly is gonna be

205
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 7: his best year. He's just growing. I know we were

206
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 7: all talking about Cacp and all that external growth, but

207
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 7: Bankcero is just becoming a better player, simply.

208
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 4: Be an all NBA guy here through the first week.

209
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 6: Bronza shooting it well to start the season. Obviously didn't

210
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 6: play very much last night, but it has been ban Cao.

211
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 6: That is the reason that the Magic had exceeded early

212
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 6: season expectations. I mean, Cacp shooting like fifteen percent three

213
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 6: so far. He has not had a good game yet,

214
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 6: and the Magic are shooting thirty eight percent from three,

215
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 6: really nice, so their offense looks good. They shot what

216
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 6: thirty one percent from three last night, but that'll probably

217
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 6: level out over the course of the season. They're probably

218
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 6: a best like an average three point shooting team, but

219
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 6: I think they're a great foul drawing team, so that's

220
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 6: a good way for them to get their efficiency up

221
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 6: on the flip side, what's going on with the Pacers

222
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 6: twenty seventh and paid right now seventeenth In offense, Tyrese

223
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 6: Haliburton had his best game last night nineteen points, ten assists,

224
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 6: but he's averaging fourteen to five and five on thirty

225
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 6: four percent shooting. Doesn't seem to have the ball as

226
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 6: much right now. Weird stuff from Haliburton, I think.

227
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 7: And it feels like his his actual shot form has changed.

228
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 7: It feels like he's gotten a little bit faster, he's

229
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 7: sort of speeding up. The shot has declined big time

230
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 7: from three point land. He's shooting only twenty six percent

231
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 7: from three. Feels odd to see him shooting the ball.

232
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 7: All of his percentages are down. It looks like he

233
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 7: tried to change it to try and literally get it

234
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 7: off faster, but that ain't working.

235
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 5: But I do love seeing.

236
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, the magic you're talking about the other side, Jalen Suggs,

237
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 7: I think just has got fresher hit, better legs on

238
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 7: the offensive end because KCP is taking the other guys

239
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 7: the other team's offensive player. That's really helped. And Jamal

240
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 7: mostly is just an awesome, awesome coach trying to get

241
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 7: the most out of his team and telling a guy

242
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 7: like Anthony Back, a kid like Anthony Back, shoot from

243
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 7: the corners as much as possible, even though he's taking

244
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 7: a couple up top. Is shooting from the corners, even

245
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 7: though it's a bit of a shot put form.

246
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a shot release.

247
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 5: It starts at the nipples and like goes and goes

248
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 5: straight up.

249
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 7: I mean it's and that's why the corners are the

250
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 7: most likely place he's going to make now. But we can,

251
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 7: you know, we'll fly through Russell Westbrook and other guys

252
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 7: who are shooting way too much. Anthony Back is out there.

253
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 7: He played thirty plus minutes, but he just took smart

254
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 7: shots in this game. So Mosley is a Coach of

255
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 7: the Year candidate already one weekend.

256
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 5: Who's the coach of the year, Moley's Mosley's in there

257
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 5: for sure.

258
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 6: Top four. I've put JJ in there. I put Keny

259
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 6: Packinson in there, Yeah, Mackinson, spoon Hoolezer maybe yeah.

260
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 5: Yah, sure, yeah.

261
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 6: Good.

262
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 4: So congrats to anyone out there. I'm sure somebody picked

263
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 4: Pallo for the first guy to score fifty points in

264
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 4: a game this season. That was a question we obviously

265
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 4: did in our previous series. Let's keep it going here.

266
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 4: Darius Garland really good game, thirty four points as the

267
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,839
Speaker 4: Calves rallied to get past the Knicks. They win one

268
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 4: ten to one, oh four Cleveland four. And oh they're

269
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: perfect Kenny Atkinson coach to the air, for sure.

270
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 5: None.

271
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 4: But you know, they had had really easy schedule. They

272
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 4: were just beating up all the bad teams and then

273
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 4: played a good Knicks team in Madison Square Garden and

274
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 4: took care of business. And I thought, you know, Garland

275
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 4: was the closer in this, but everybody contributing.

276
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 7: Tests, Yeah, Donovan Mitchell bought into this team, signing that extension,

277
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 7: and that's because he believed in the other guys in

278
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 7: Garland and Evan Mobley and in uh Jersey Yeah, Jared Allen. Yeah,

279
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 7: I was looking for a nickname for him, but I'm

280
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 7: not calling him the Big Greg. But he had beautiful moves,

281
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 7: He had beautiful moves, he had beautiful finishes last night.

282
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 7: But Mitchell talked to his team apparently after those three wins, saying, yes,

283
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 7: we beat the bad teams, but it's the next game

284
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 7: that matters. And they beat the Knicks obviously in the

285
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 7: second half, especially the Knicks We're getting all over that

286
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 7: offensive glass. In the first half, eleven offensive boards and

287
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 7: only two in the second half. And Donovan Mitchell said,

288
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 7: you know, when he signed that extension, it felt like

289
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 7: he knew that he needed other guys to perform. Mobley

290
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,599
Speaker 7: looked awesome in this game, and Garland best game of

291
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 7: the season. Starting to look extremely comfortable. And it's an

292
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 7: interesting buy in for Mitchell because he was great last

293
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 7: year when those two guys were up in Garland and Moblei,

294
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 7: And now he's buying in completely to those two guys

295
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 7: being great and so far, so good on the two guards,

296
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 7: him and Garland on the floor and Jared Allen and

297
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 7: Mobley the two bigs on the floor looking great. There's

298
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 7: just so much confidence. And they don't even have Max Strus.

299
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 7: They they haven't got extreme performance out of that fifth

300
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 7: spot quite yet. But yes, great start, absolutely great start.

301
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 7: Looking like the second best team in the Eastern Conference

302
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 7: so far.

303
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 6: The continuity is huge, and you look at the standings

304
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 6: and it makes sense. On the Eastern Conference, the top

305
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 6: three teams are Boston, Cleveland, and Orlando.

306
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

307
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 6: In the Western Conference, the top three teams are Okay,

308
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 6: see the Lakers and Phoenix teams that were literally all

309
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 6: together last year. Maybe they changed a coach, maybe they

310
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 6: changed one starter, but you know, they're basically bringing back

311
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 6: the top eight, top nine guys. They know how to

312
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 6: play together. I was super impressed with Darius Garland taken

313
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 6: over in the fourth quarter. Six minutes left, Donovan Mitchell

314
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 6: checks out, Caves Are up two. Garland goes for eight

315
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 6: points and an assist. In the next three minutes, Mitchell

316
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 6: checks back in, caves Are up six, and Garland was

317
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 6: in a flow at that point. He scored another four points,

318
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 6: made a couple of nice defensive plays down the stretch

319
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 6: as well. I think Eastrip Brunson maybe on a fast break,

320
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 6: had another block from behind later. Calves are good, like

321
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 6: they got two guards who can handle the ball and

322
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 6: make plays in Mitchell and Garland. Their defense is awesome.

323
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 6: They held Karl Anthony Towns to eight shots. He had

324
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 6: six fouls in this game as well. Filed out the

325
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 6: bad kind of Towns game that's gonna happen. And you know,

326
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 6: I just think the Calves know what they want to do,

327
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 6: and they know how to play. They have a lot

328
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 6: of different formulations that they can be together on the

329
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 6: court together because last season they had so many injuries

330
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 6: where they had to figure out who was their personnel

331
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 6: that was actually available, so good stuff from the Caves.

332
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 6: It was nice to see them play a good team

333
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 6: and look like the better team.

334
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 4: There were so many times I remember on last year's

335
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 4: No Dunks where specifically you and me, Trey were like

336
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 4: pointing out, what the hell is Garland doing down the

337
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 4: stretch of games. We were always talking up like he

338
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 4: was forcing bad passes, just bad, ugly turnovers, weird shots.

339
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 4: Now a lot of it was chocked up, I think

340
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 4: to just like a weird year for him with the

341
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 4: injuries and stuff like that and trying to find his rhythm.

342
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 4: But man him returning, Garland returning to like sort of

343
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 4: all star form that really swings and catapults the Calves

344
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 4: into like a legit, legit like Eastern Conference contender, maybe

345
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 4: a team that could like really battle with the Mighty

346
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 4: Celtics because he's such a difference maker. And obviously Mobley's

347
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 4: played well with Kenny Atkinson here in the offense, he's

348
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 4: sort of running through him a little bit more. My

349
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 4: big takeaway with the four and oh record is like

350
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 4: we've barely talked about Donovan Mitchell, right, I mean, like

351
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 4: he's he's doing his thing. I think the percentages are great.

352
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 4: He's averaging like twenty four game, you know, twenty four

353
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 4: four and three whatever he's averaging. But that's a good thing.

354
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 4: We're like barely talking about him. These aren't like, oh,

355
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 4: Mitchell had to go for forty eight to get the

356
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 4: Calves to win, or you had to hit seven threes

357
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 4: to get the Cavs across the line. It's like it's

358
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 4: it's all their four main guys that are contributing. So awesome.

359
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 4: Start and do you have any thoughts on the Knicks?

360
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 4: Are you concerned about them here? How sort of like

361
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 4: sluggish they've looked early, like their offense in the half

362
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 4: court said, is a.

363
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 5: Slog that's sluggy?

364
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, mckelberg is a question that hasn't he hasn't

365
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 7: performed to his ability and it would help to have

366
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 7: another center besidekar Anthony town. So I think that's the difference.

367
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 5: But yet they they.

368
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 7: It is odd to see Kat get sent to this

369
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 7: team pretty late. It is a little like Cleveland last year,

370
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 7: like they their core just didn't get a lot of

371
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 7: reps together and so that that stinks for the Knicks.

372
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 5: That's it.

373
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 4: But you're not a king. You're not pressing the panic

374
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 4: button on New York.

375
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 6: No, they're thirtieth in pace right now. Everything takes forever

376
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 6: in the next it's just basically Jalen Brunton handling the

377
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 6: ball for twenty seconds. Can we get a shot out

378
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 6: of that? We'll see a mismatch there. We'll give it

379
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 6: to ogn and no Hill dribble for twenty seconds. They

380
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 6: don't necessarily have a flow or an offensive system right now.

381
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 6: The trade came in pretty late, Like Tass said, the

382
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 6: Bucks were complaining about it last year, So I guess

383
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 6: the Knicks will get a little bit of a pass

384
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 6: early in the season, but they're gonna have to figure

385
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 6: out a way to generate offense with Towns, not just

386
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 6: using him as a play finisher, but like getting him

387
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 6: the ball in advantageous positions, letting him draw a second

388
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 6: player and then maybe get a double team and we

389
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 6: can get some open shots. But right now it feels

390
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 6: like everything is a chore for the next to actually

391
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 6: get decent looks offensively. So I assume it'll get better

392
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 6: as time goes on, and they just you know, learn

393
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 6: where Towns wants to be on the court, how he

394
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 6: interacts with Brunson. But not a smooth start in the least.

395
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, but they are the third best offense in the league.

396
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,920
Speaker 7: Even though they play fairly slow, they get points. Their

397
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 7: defense is the worst in the league, and so that's

398
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 7: a little bit scary. At this pace. They can't be

399
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,239
Speaker 7: giving up you know. Obviously the Celtics were awesome, but

400
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 7: then you know they're still giving up a lot of points.

401
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 6: But the tough schedule, I guess for the Knicks.

402
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 5: To start playing Celtics, Pacers and Cavs.

403
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 4: Brunson got a little banged up last night, played through

404
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 4: the injury. But then Josh Hart left that game due

405
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 4: to injury. I don't know what his status is, you know,

406
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 4: like that guy, you know you got placed through I

407
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 4: feel like pain. So you never like to see him

408
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 4: go back to the locker room. Yeah, and then the cat,

409
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 4: I mean that was, like you said it. There tk

410
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 4: like a bad, bad cat game, like early foul trouble,

411
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 4: you know, frustrated, not a lot of shot attempts. Then

412
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 4: he like did his little cat you know, temper tantrum

413
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,679
Speaker 4: when he was getting up his late fouls like it

414
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 4: was just the that was the bad Karl Anthony Towns game,

415
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 4: but hopefully gets it out of his system. But man

416
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,719
Speaker 4: Calves looked legit there last night with the six point victory.

417
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 4: Another fun game between these two teams for the second

418
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 4: time the Lakers and Sons. Phoenix down eighteen points in

419
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,239
Speaker 4: the first half, but managed to get the victory one

420
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 4: o nine, one oh five, hand the Lakers their first loss.

421
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 4: And really, you know, Booker his best game of the season,

422
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 4: Durant doing Katie things, and then the rookie done, and

423
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 4: we had a Mason Plumley the plumb Dog helping out

424
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,719
Speaker 4: like it was a funny like lineup at the end

425
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 4: that was working for Phoenix to get this victory. I

426
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 4: don't know who wants to get it started on this one.

427
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 6: I watched this game last night when I got home

428
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 6: from the Hawks game, and then I watched it again

429
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 6: this morning, and both times I was like, no takeaways.

430
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 6: Kevin Durant is good and sometimes he's gonna make shots

431
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 6: that you can't defend. Same with Devin Booker. I heard

432
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 6: Eddie Johnson say he has the best left hand in

433
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 6: the NBA. Maybe it's true. I know it's the same

434
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 6: thing as you those skeets Mason Plumbley closing the game

435
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 6: for use off nerkiticch Nurkic was terrible last night when

436
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 6: one for six from the field, he was a minus twenty. Meanwhile,

437
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 6: Mason Plumley zero shots on the night, plus twenty three

438
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 6: and was just out there. You know, I think a

439
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 6: lot of the reason that the Lakers lost this game.

440
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 6: Not a great game from Lebron his first stinker of

441
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 6: the season, to be quite honest, But it looked like

442
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 6: the Suns were deciding we're gonna roll with what's working,

443
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 6: and I like to see that where they're not just

444
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 6: necessarily like, Okay, Tyas Jones, you started use of Nirkitch.

445
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 6: You started that means you're closing that obviously wasn't case done.

446
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 6: Got a lot of minutes in the fourth quarter, plumbe

447
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 6: got a ton of minutes in the fourth quarter, and

448
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 6: then Royce O'Neil was a guy in there for Ryan

449
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 6: Dunn as well. But good stuff from the Suns. Like

450
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 6: I think they're competitive this year. They do look like

451
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 6: they've changed their shot profile enough. Like I saw Kevin

452
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 6: Durant take a three in the fourth quarter that kind

453
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 6: of stuff helps. They need their star players to be

454
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 6: looking to shoot from outside, and that's obviously a Budenholzer influence.

455
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 4: Coach of the Year, everyone's going to coach of the year.

456
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 5: He is involved, for sure. He's up there.

457
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 7: Kevin Durant, Yeah, he's old man. He's playing great. He's

458
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 7: played thirty eight minutes in this game. He's played forty

459
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 7: minutes per game so far this season. That's a ton.

460
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 7: He had that fourth quarter run eight straight points. Now

461
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 7: the oldest players starts season with four straight games with

462
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 7: twenty five plus points. He looks like he's getting better

463
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 7: as he ages. But this team, the second iteration of

464
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 7: this team another year, they do look better getting contributions

465
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 7: from Royce O'Neil off the bench. I was surprised when

466
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 7: he got that contract, but he's definitely worth every single penny.

467
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 7: Ryan Dunn, the late draft pick, is awesome.

468
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 4: He's fun to watch. It's bad guy, moves his feet

469
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 4: on defense. He was a part of the reason why

470
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 4: Lebron was three or fourteen and only eleven points, Like

471
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 4: there was times we're done. Was just doing an incredible

472
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 4: job of staying in front of Lebron, just moving those Tootsies,

473
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 4: and I think, like a guy like that, it's sort

474
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 4: of amazing how one guy thrown out there can like

475
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 4: help a defense like it spreads. I feel like amongst

476
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 4: other guys, like we sort of saw it even with

477
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 4: the Hawks with Dyson Daniels a little bit. It works

478
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 4: like having a guy that plays his ass off on

479
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 4: that and I think makes everybody else play a little

480
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 4: bit harder or a little bit more locked in.

481
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 6: So so you guys weren't watching the Hawks game last well,

482
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 6: I mean, I know not last night was a good example,

483
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 6: but I'm saying the season and he does help, and

484
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 6: you know, I.

485
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 4: Think they need to find even maybe more minutes for

486
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 4: the Sun's Rocky Ryan Done. But yeah, that was a

487
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 4: it was a fun line up there where it's Booker, Durant, Beale,

488
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 4: Royce O'Neil. Yeah, there was plumb dog for a while.

489
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 4: But then at right at the end they throw Done

490
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: in for some defensive possessions and they get it done.

491
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 7: Hey, we're giving Coach of the Year awards now Rookie

492
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 7: of the year talk, and he needs to include Ryan Dunn.

493
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 7: He's got to be the rookie lad He's the twenty

494
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 7: eighth pick. He looks like he's sort of an undersized big,

495
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 7: but it doesn't matter. He plays ridiculously hard defensively. He's

496
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 7: a three point shooter when he wasn't one at Virginia.

497
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 7: Some way, somehow, he feels comfortable taking shots. He literally

498
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 7: can push the ball and take that shot if he wants. So, Yeah,

499
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 7: they have more depth. The Suns team definitely looks different.

500
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 7: I was definitely skeptical if they would be able to

501
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 7: do the depth thing. But the Tias Jones signing obviously helped.

502
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 7: The Monte Morris sign even helps a tiny bit. And

503
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 7: then yet you're Royce O'Neil and your Ryan Dunn's and

504
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 7: Bradley Beal only injured for one game at a time.

505
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 7: Now he played missing a game, he's missed.

506
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 5: You know, at this rate, he'd play.

507
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 7: About sixty games. That's that's Beal rate right now, three

508
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 7: out of four round right. So Yeah, and Lebron ye

509
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 7: getting to eleven points, keeping that streak up twelve hundred

510
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 7: twenty six games with double digit scoring.

511
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 5: But it was closed, almost.

512
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 4: Was snapped last night, but he hit that one three

513
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 4: late to keep the game close too. Okay, a million

514
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 4: other games any other takeaways TK from last night. How

515
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 4: was the fortress? I mean, you saw the Wizards beat

516
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 4: the Hawks?

517
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 6: Of course, Tah, yeah, man, it was cool going and

518
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 6: see Corey Kisspert versus Garrison Matthews shootout. That is what

519
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 6: it came down to. I basically went to see the rookies.

520
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 6: It was a bad loss for the Hawks. Like you're saying,

521
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 6: the Wizards hit twenty one threes, twenty one to forty

522
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 6: four from three, and they shot twenty of forty seven

523
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 6: from two point range. It's always weird when the three

524
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 6: point percentage is higher than the field no percentage. But

525
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 6: that's what it was for the Wizards. They weren't even

526
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 6: passing the ball. They're just like bringing up in Kuzmo's

527
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 6: hitting threes. It was that was the Dyson Daniel's effect.

528
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 6: It was not in order for the Hawks last night.

529
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 6: But the rookie performance is in order. I would say,

530
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 6: what like this, Bob Carrington best rookie on the court,

531
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 6: followed by Keyshawn George. I didn't go to see either

532
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 6: of those guyes. I wanted to see Sarr and Risha

533
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 6: che Neither of them were good. Shay had a wide

534
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 6: open look at a corner three to tie the game

535
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 6: with a minute twenty left in the air, bawled, whoop?

536
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 5: Was that the side of the backboard? One?

537
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 6: Did it hit the side of the back It looked

538
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 6: like an air from where I was sitting hit the

539
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 6: side was it was rough? It was it was not close.

540
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 6: The best player on the court was I thought bill

541
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 6: all Kolbali. He was awesome on Trey Young put the

542
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 6: clamps on, held Trade to two of fifteen from the field.

543
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 6: Trade did have thirteen assists, but also six turnovers. Koli

544
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 6: Bali is huge, man like. He was towering over Trey

545
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 6: Young and kind of smothering him at times. That's the

546
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 6: kind of player that Trey really struggles with. Somebody who's

547
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 6: quick enough to move his feet but also big enough

548
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 6: to like challenge on the step backs and give rear

549
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 6: view contests when you actually get beat like Io'd assume

550
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 6: will always gives Trey Young trouble. And you know not

551
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 6: that Kooli Bali and Iowa are similar players, but they're

552
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 6: built similar. They're big, they're long, but they're also fast cool.

553
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 6: Bali was also great in the short role. He finished

554
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 6: with seventeen points. I don't know if he took a

555
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 6: shot in the first half, but they started using him

556
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,240
Speaker 6: as a greener because he was being guarded by Trey

557
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 6: as well, getting him the ball, letting him create from

558
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 6: the inside. I gotta say I saw the vision a

559
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 6: little bit for the Washington Wizards. They're still bad, man.

560
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 6: They're so young. You look at so many of their

561
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 6: players and they got straight up baby faces. But COOLi

562
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 6: Bali is humongous good defender. Sar is at the very least,

563
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 6: he's super athletic. He had a couple of nice blocks

564
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 6: in this game. Carrington is big, George is big. They

565
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 6: both give effort. I'm like, in a few years, if

566
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 6: they figure out how to play offense, I'm confident that

567
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 6: they'll have a good defense.

568
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's maybe what they're building.

569
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:32,640
Speaker 5: And COOLi Bali got.

570
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 4: The game saving you know, final stop on Trey Young

571
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 4: there too, Like that's where they were down to right,

572
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 4: Trey went for the win. But Coolibali like he's sort

573
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 4: a bit on the pump fag from Trey, but like

574
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 4: he's so big and so long that he was still

575
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 4: challenging the second attempt from Trey there. I mean, it

576
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 4: wasn't the I think Trey probably should have taken an inside,

577
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 4: maybe done his patent and floater and maybe got it

578
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 4: to overtime, giving you some free basketball down at the Fortress.

579
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 4: But he was looking for that three. But cool Bally

580
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 4: did a great job on him all night.

581
00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

582
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 7: I guess Trade did know that he was going to

583
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 7: have to go left, but he should have got a

584
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 7: way better shot off than that. It is straight young

585
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 7: and he is that talented, but he had a bad

586
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 7: night just overall. Unfortunately, any of.

587
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 6: The Hawk was in costume as well. He was dressed

588
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 6: as Beetlejuice for the majority of the game because I

589
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 6: don't think the Hawks play again in Atlanta until after Halloween.

590
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 6: But at one point he changed into an Australian breakdancing

591
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 6: costume and he was doing raygun moves.

592
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 4: Whoah, and he doing good ray gun moves like the

593
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 4: car yeah yeah, So I was like, what is this

594
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 4: guy supposed to be?

595
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 6: And then he started doing you know, I guess you

596
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 6: would call it the hip hinge.

597
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, the horizontal.

598
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 6: Ray gun's signature move. That's great stuff.

599
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 4: Okay, any other games you want to touch on tests.

600
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 7: Well, Boston pulled an okay, see where they kept it

601
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 7: close to the Milwaukee Bucks until the fourth court, and

602
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 7: I said, let's do this thing I do like the

603
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 7: Bucks were giving it a go. Yannis did play thirty

604
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 7: nine minutes. That's a heavy role for him, and he

605
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 7: shot twenty six shots, the most of his season. So

606
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 7: if you're looking at any sort of positive for the

607
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 7: Milwaukee Bucks, Yanni's tried to win this game, and Damian

608
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 7: Lillard also tried to win it with eighteen free throws.

609
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 5: He was going hard to.

610
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 7: The hoop watching old Al block, Yanny said that a

611
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 7: googo on a drive attempt is wild that Al Horford

612
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,959
Speaker 7: at his age is able to do that. That was Boker's,

613
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 7: so I guess he can. Hey, there's a little bit

614
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 7: of a win there for the Milwaukee Bucks. What was

615
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 7: painful was watching the Raptors Nuggets ending with thirty seconds left.

616
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 7: Scottie Barnes up four points, tried to score in the

617
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 7: paint and he got.

618
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 5: A while he got destroyed.

619
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,959
Speaker 7: By Nikolai Jokic's elbow and so he had to go

620
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 7: to the back actually because well, yeah he was it

621
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 7: was accidental, but then he's on the ground. He had

622
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 7: to leave the game because of concussion protocol. So the

623
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 7: Nuggets just go the other way down four. They got

624
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 7: five on four, so that leads to an easy bucket.

625
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 7: And so then they play the free throw game and

626
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 7: somehow Joel Murray sends it to overtime with a beautiful move,

627
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 7: but up four to thirty seconds left. That I was

628
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 7: painful to watch Scotty down and then the team gets

629
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 7: the numbers.

630
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 5: The other way.

631
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 7: But hopefully Scotty's okay because he had to leave this game. Yeah,

632
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 7: because he got hit by a big rig that named

633
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 7: Nicolayok that's a large man.

634
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he scored fortykch did as they rallied from fifteen

635
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 4: back to beat the Raptors. He said it was they

636
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 4: were up four, the Raptors were late, but they were

637
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 4: even up, like they were up like eight or nine

638
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 4: with like a minute and a half to go. I

639
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 4: was getting ready to send the task Milis thumbs up

640
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 4: Raptors tweet. It was like, okay, Raptors are going to

641
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 4: do this. Wow, what a win. But I didn't send it.

642
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 4: Luckily kept it in the chamber. And yeah, the Nuggets,

643
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 4: I mean the Raptors were missing free throws. They had

644
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 4: RJ stepping at a bounds like they botched it for

645
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 4: being honest, but the Nuggets got their first win of

646
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 4: the season. It took over time. It wasn't the prettiest,

647
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 4: but you know, you got to get that first one

648
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 4: off off your back. There, the monkey off your back,

649
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 4: that man raptors man. If that's what they're gonna do

650
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 4: all season, just play close games, entertaining games, but lose.

651
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 6: That's how it is exactly win right there.

652
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 4: Holy, we were close.

653
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 6: We almost beat him, but it took a playoff rotation

654
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 6: from the Nuggets. Yeah, to pull it out their benches

655
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 6: there existent I think they've lost every stint they've been

656
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 6: on the court so far this season, according to Worldwide

657
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 6: WOB But back to back forty point games for Jokic.

658
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 6: We were talking early in the season, how does Jokic

659
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 6: possibly win a fourth MVP in five years. I don't

660
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 6: think he's the leader right now, but the recipe is nice.

661
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 6: Everybody else on the team sucks and he's putting up

662
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 6: forty at night. That could do it if they actually

663
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 6: start winning games. But you would like to see them

664
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 6: be a little bit better. I mean six for twenty

665
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 6: for Jamal Murray. I only saw the layup that he

666
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 6: made at the end there, but you I was watching

667
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 6: the scoreboard down at the Fortress. I was like, if

668
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 6: the Nuggets lose this game to the Raptors, they will

669
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 6: be leading every single show.

670
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 7: Well, yeah, yeah, they didn't have Manuel quickly on the

671
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 7: other side, and it was kind of a blessing in

672
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 7: disguise because they were throwing davey on Mitchell at Jamal Murray,

673
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,479
Speaker 7: and they threw Jamal shit at him, and they did

674
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 7: a great job until late. And that's kind of the

675
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 7: Jamal Murray thing is that he kind of gets good

676
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 7: in the fourth order, or gets good in the playoffs.

677
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 7: And he turned it on with that beautiful reverse layand

678
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 7: oh that was pretty timed extremely well.

679
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 4: After he nearly threw it away giving it to Yokich,

680
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 4: the post did a good job to save that and

681
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 4: then give it back to him and then yeah, little

682
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 4: hesitation dribble from Jamal Murray sort of I think Pearl

683
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 4: thought he was going to settle for the jumper baseline,

684
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 4: but Jamal took it in and a little nice pretty

685
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,239
Speaker 4: up and under to get the minto overtime, and then

686
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 4: sort of Jokic took over there. We had a pull

687
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 4: up yesterday before last night's games most disappointing NBA teams

688
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 4: so far. The Nuggets took the vote. This was before

689
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 4: the victory against the Raptors, fifty five percent of the vote,

690
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 4: over four thousand people chiming in on YouTube. Bucks at

691
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 4: thirty three percent, Pacers eight percent, Kings four percent. I

692
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 4: wonder if I did that again today, if we threw

693
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 4: it up again today, I feel like that's flipping for sure,

694
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,479
Speaker 4: more too to the Bucks. Yeah, after another loss and

695
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,959
Speaker 4: Peteon Pritchard hitting eight threes on them and stuff like that.

696
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 4: Oh my gut says that maybe the Pacers would get

697
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 4: more of the vote to with another loss. But you know,

698
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 4: the Nuggets did get one and the Kings did too.

699
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 4: I just want to slip this in here. Darren Fox

700
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 4: scored twenty four points. He's surpassed ten thousand points in

701
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 4: his career as the Kings beat the Blazers one eleven

702
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 4: ninety eight for their first win of the season. He

703
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 4: became Fox did the fifth player in franchise history to

704
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 4: reach the ten thousand mark. Can you guys name the

705
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 4: other four Kings to hit over ten thousand points? One

706
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 4: in the Sacramento era, I'll give you that it's just

707
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 4: one in the Sacramento era. Yeah, Weber No Mitch, Mitch Richmond. Okay, yeah, okay,

708
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 4: So twelve thousand plus points there for Mitch, and then

709
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 4: you got three other like oldies classic Robertson. Yeah, he's

710
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 4: twenty two thousand points. That's the only guy anybody knows that.

711
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 4: I feel like you know this other guy. He's got

712
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 4: a great nickname. Really, I'm gonna give you this nickname.

713
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 4: He's not small, he's not short tiny, he's tiny.

714
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 6: Archibald.

715
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, tiny Archibald hit over ten thousand points and one more.

716
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 4: You know him from an award. He's a part of

717
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 4: an award.

718
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 6: A twyman or a Stokee.

719
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 4: He's a twyeman Jackon. There we go, There you go.

720
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 6: That's how they let Tomar light the beam.

721
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:04,040
Speaker 5: They did.

722
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 4: They just like he looked like he was having.

723
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 6: Fun to do. Yeah, to be probably excited.

724
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 4: Any other games are your Bulls?

725
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 6: See the hat? Yeah, first time all season. I got

726
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 6: to wear this hat. Very exciting, crazy Bulls. When they

727
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 6: were down twenty in the second quarter. You know about

728
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 6: first half leads. Though, Bulls tied a franchise high with

729
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 6: twenty five threes last night, Levine and Vouch went off

730
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 6: in the fourth quarter. The Grizzlies no Ja Morant. Jared

731
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 6: Jackson Junior is on a minute restriction, so he's playing

732
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 6: like twenty four minutes a night. That just led to

733
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 6: Vouch getting some what open threes. He's been on fire

734
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 6: to start the season. But the Bulls look totally different

735
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 6: now that DeMar de Rosen is no longer on the team.

736
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 6: The Bulls are first in pace in the entire NBA

737
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 6: and their third and three point shooting like attempts makes

738
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 6: three point rate their sixth in percentage. They're playing a

739
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 6: super high variance style right now. And their win against

740
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 6: Milwaukee they went twenty one to forty seven from three.

741
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 6: Last night they went twenty five of fifty two from three,

742
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 6: and their losses against the Pelican they made ten to

743
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 6: thirty four and against the Thunder they went fifteen of

744
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 6: fifty three. Bulls have never taken fifty threes in the

745
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 6: game until this season. They've already done it twice, wow,

746
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 6: in the first two games of the year. So you

747
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 6: know they're going to be in a lot of these games.

748
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 6: They're going to beat some teams that they shouldn't beat

749
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 6: because they're just going to take a ton of threes

750
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 6: and sometimes you make them. They're basically like a college team,

751
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 6: so we'll see how it pays off. But they look different.

752
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 6: And a bunch of my friends now got antenna's, so

753
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 6: oh wow. Things have improved in the past.

754
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 4: And we did learn that antennas are not necessarily the

755
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 4: bunny ears anymore square antennas.

756
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 6: They got circle antennas. They'll do anything. Yeah, somebody said

757
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 6: you can just stick a paper clip in your coax thing.

758
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 6: I don't know if it's.

759
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 4: Clip it Okay, any other games, I know there's a

760
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 4: million others. We've got a lot of other questions here

761
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 4: to tackle.

762
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 5: Let's get to the question.

763
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 4: Okay, well we have some injuries. First, we have an update.

764
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,520
Speaker 4: Warrior Superstar Steph Curry will miss the next two games

765
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 4: with a left paer O'Neil strain and will be reevaluated

766
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 4: this Friday quote the MRI was positive. Steve cur said

767
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 4: after practice yesterday that's the main thing. No significant damage,

768
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 4: so that is good. But he's gonna miss a couple

769
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 4: of games. Here. What did we say? They have a

770
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 4: back to back against the same team, right, Pelicans? I

771
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 4: think is it the Pals. They play tonight and tomorrow. Yeah,

772
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:20,280
Speaker 4: here in San Francisco, So they're also without the Warriors,

773
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 4: without Anthony Milton, So you know, is it Podjemski, is

774
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 4: it Buddy Hill. We talked about that a little bit yesterday.

775
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 4: But at least Curry Tasks is only going to miss

776
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 4: probably a couple of games.

777
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 7: Yes, I've heard of this paraneal strain before. It's sort

778
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 7: of towards the rear of the the ankle. They're seeing

779
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 7: it before with friends that have gotten hurt. You got

780
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,959
Speaker 7: to take your time though. It's not like he's coming

781
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 7: back this.

782
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 6: Week, so get arrested.

783
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 7: That is absolutely for sure, and it's something that can

784
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 7: be aggravating, so you know, like one of those the hamstring, ah,

785
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 7: the grin will stay with you for a while.

786
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 5: It's one of those.

787
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 7: So he ain't coming back this week at this point.

788
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 4: Really gruesome injury last night in the Mavscheme, Jazz forward

789
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 4: Taylor Hendrix was wheeled off on a stretcher with a

790
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,879
Speaker 4: broken leg midway through the third quarter after he fell

791
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 4: to the floor without any contact, Like no other guys

792
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 4: near him. He was by the baseline near Utah's basket.

793
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 4: The team said he had a fractured right fibula and

794
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 4: dislocated ankle. If you've seen the clip, you know that's

795
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 4: exactly what it is. If you are one of these

796
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 4: queasy types, do not watch it because it's a very

797
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 4: gruesome injury and just odd to Trey. Sorry that like

798
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 4: how it happened, Just a man running and stopping a

799
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 4: young guy at that. Yeah, and for it to like

800
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 4: just snap like that or fold like oh yeah, noted a.

801
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,760
Speaker 6: Twitter doctor Brian Suitor, MD called it a non contact

802
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,439
Speaker 6: contact injury because basically it's like there's nobody around him, right,

803
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 6: but the way he lands kind of on his own

804
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 6: leg is what leads to the injury. Uh yeah, I

805
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 6: mean I assume he's gonna be out for the season

806
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 6: with the way it happened. It's a gross one and

807
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 6: his rookie season was kind of jeopardized by injury as well.

808
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 6: Only played forty games, got three in this year. Tough

809
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 6: start to your NBA career to basically miss your first

810
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 6: two seasons.

811
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, stomach churning injury, I think is how Dan Devine

812
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 4: put it. But yeah, and yeah, you're right, Hendricks was

813
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 4: like getting starts here for the Jazz you know he's

814
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 4: getting reps, but yeah, he'll be out for the year.

815
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 4: Let's talk a little bit about the last week in

816
00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 4: the NBA. Got a few questions for you guys, for

817
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 4: everybody joining us on the stream team right now on YouTube.

818
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 4: Play along in the comments section. Tweet at us if

819
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 4: you want at No, didn't sink first one? You know

820
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 4: again about a week. I want to know which player

821
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 4: or team tasks has gone under the radar the most too.

822
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,200
Speaker 4: Maybe something we should be talking about more has just

823
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 4: been overlooked.

824
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 7: The Los Angeles Slippers are under the radar, and they

825
00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,439
Speaker 7: were under the radar before the season started. Nobody wants

826
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 7: to talk about a team that's talking about Kawhi Leonard

827
00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 7: being injured, and so no one.

828
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 5: Was talking about them.

829
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 7: But the guys that they added are doing some great

830
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 7: things on the defensive end. Chris Dunn, who would have

831
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 7: thunk get and Derek Ston are just awesome on that end.

832
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,839
Speaker 7: You talk about guys that are contagious on that end,

833
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:06,919
Speaker 7: it's those guys.

834
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they are getting.

835
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 7: After it, both guys, especially Done coming off the bench.

836
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 7: You know, he knows that he can just use all

837
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,919
Speaker 7: his energy on the defensive end. Two steals per game.

838
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 7: Derek Jones Junior will take the best player on the

839
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 7: other team one point seven steels per game. So that's

840
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 7: that end of the floor, and then the offensive end.

841
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 7: It's all going through Harden, but Zubats and Norman Powell

842
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 7: have been great with him. Harden has always worked really

843
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 7: well with a big He always has worked extremely well

844
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 7: with the center, and so him and Zubats are great together.

845
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 7: And then Norman Powell is a great guy knowing that

846
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 7: his role is going way up with Kawhi Leonard out

847
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 7: as a score man. He is still a bucket in

848
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 7: his young thirties, so he's doing lots of good.

849
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 5: Stuff out there. You know.

850
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 7: He beat the Nuggets by himself, and they're two and one.

851
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 7: Looks like they're on their way to their fourteenth straight

852
00:37:58,480 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 7: winning season.

853
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 5: It bokers when you think about that.

854
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 7: The only team that's at thirteen consecutive wins right now

855
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 7: winning seasons right now and yees, So they're two and one.

856
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 7: You know, it all depends on who they play night

857
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:12,479
Speaker 7: in and night out.

858
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 5: But to see what.

859
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 7: They did over the Nuggets over the Warriors, and they

860
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 7: lost they're only loss in an overtime game against the Suns.

861
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,839
Speaker 7: This teams is just a make care you want. I

862
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 7: can't believe I overlooked TYLERU as a Coach of the

863
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 7: Year candidate. Coach he does man to say, hey, Chris Dunn,

864
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 7: come off the bench, play your heart out defensively, and

865
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 7: don't shoot all the freaking time. You play a role

866
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 7: and the bench knows what they're doing. Like to think

867
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 7: that no Kawhi Paul gone that they'd be this deep.

868
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 7: They're deep, They're great and thanks to Tyler's great.

869
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 4: That's a good one. Where are you going? TK?

870
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 6: I was Clippers focused as well. To me, it's Harden

871
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 6: Like people don't realize hard AND's hooping right now. Twenty

872
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 6: five points per game, highest since he was in Houston,

873
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 6: eleven point seven assists per game, highest of his career,

874
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 6: eight point three rebounds per game, highest of his career,

875
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 6: six in the league, and usage percentage right now it's

876
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 6: the highest since he was in Houston. Guy said, on

877
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 6: a system, and guess what still kind of a system.

878
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 6: Of course, their offense is twenty third in the league.

879
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 6: They're actually not scoring really well. It's the defense that's

880
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 6: carrying on. But I think Harden will start shooting better.

881
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 6: He's at thirty six percent from the field right now,

882
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 6: nineteen from three, six and a half turnovers as well,

883
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,960
Speaker 6: but the guy gets to the free throw line as usual.

884
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 6: That helps, and he's really been great for a beats

885
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 6: to Zubots, I think it. Zubas has been the biggest

886
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 6: beneficiary of Harden taking the reins with Kawhi out twenty

887
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 6: two to fourteen and four assists per game for Zubots.

888
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 6: He killed the Nuggets too, I mean, yes, it was

889
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 6: Norm Powell. He was unstoppable. Also, Zubats was just a

890
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,240
Speaker 6: layup machine and when they were actually near him, easy

891
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 6: passes out Clippers. I can't believe how watchable they are.

892
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 6: They're fun to watch actually.

893
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, and those free throws are the highest that he's

894
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 7: had since his Houston days too, at ten per game.

895
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 7: I mean it's it's been a minute since he's been

896
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 7: that high. He's he gets after it, even though the

897
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 7: percentages are low. He said, I'm going to be the

898
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 7: system and he's doing it. So, yeah, the offense got

899
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 7: to get a lot better overall. But yeah, Hardham probably

900
00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 7: shoot better than nineteen percent from three.

901
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 5: The SHOT's got to go at some.

902
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 4: Point, all right, Little Clipper love from you guys. I'll

903
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 4: just show some love going under the radar. Even though

904
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 4: we talked about his team here earlier on the podcast.

905
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,320
Speaker 4: Jared Allen is averaging seventeen and ten. He's got to

906
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 4: steal a game, nearly two blocks per game. He's shooting

907
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 4: eighty percent from the floor. And because the Cavs are

908
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 4: four or no, Jared Allen right now is fifth on

909
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 4: Basketball Reference MVP Award tracker, which is pretty amazing. It

910
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 4: goes Shay chet Holngren, Jason Tatum, Anthony Davis. Those all

911
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 4: make sense, the numbers that are putting up, the teams

912
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 4: are on and then Jared Allen there representing the Cleveland Cavalier.

913
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 4: I guess Mobley's down at ninth, but Jared Allen he

914
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 4: just gets overlooked. But Kenny Atkinson, man, he's the Jared

915
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 4: Allen whisper. These two are together. This guy's unstoppable. So

916
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,480
Speaker 4: he just playing his role perfectly. Just to show him

917
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 4: a little bit of love, because you usually talk about Mitchell,

918
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 4: you talk about Girland. Even Mobley has looked a lot

919
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 4: more improved. They're definitely including him more offensively. But Jared

920
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 4: Allen just goes about his business, just does the dirty

921
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,239
Speaker 4: work and a big reason why that they are four

922
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 4: and o to start the season. All right, next question,

923
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,399
Speaker 4: what's been the biggest surprise? What do you got?

924
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 6: Trey Andrew Wiggins?

925
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

926
00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 5: Is he back?

927
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 6: Is Andrew Wiggins back? He's a little bit back. I

928
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,760
Speaker 6: think he's been good in every single game for the Warriors.

929
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 6: Had twenty in an opening night blowout win over the Trailblazers,

930
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 6: had thirteen rebounds, which is a huge indicator for Wiggins

931
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 6: in a blowout against the Jazz, and then he had

932
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 6: twenty nine in a loss. I thought he was the

933
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 6: best Warrior on the floor against the Clippers after Curry

934
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 6: went down. But he's taken more shots. He's kind of

935
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 6: unsustainably hot from the field right now. The guy never

936
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 6: gets to the free throw line, but he's really aggressive,

937
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 6: he's rebounding, and Wiggins is smiling all the time when

938
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 6: he's out there on the court right now. I think

939
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,880
Speaker 6: those are all positive things from him. The Warriors are

940
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 6: gonna need Wiggins to stay in this kind of flow

941
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 6: with Curry missing a couple of games. Maybe more here.

942
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 6: I think that Wiggins has outplayed Kuminga. I thought that

943
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 6: was the opposite lifelast year, like Kuminge had kind of

944
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 6: superseded Andrew Wiggins. But Wiggins looks like comfortable on the

945
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 6: court for the Warriors right now and he's playing the

946
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 6: best he has basically since the finals when they won

947
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 6: in twenty two.

948
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's unfortunately day to day right now with a

949
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 4: back injury, so he's questionable tonight and they obviously could

950
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,280
Speaker 4: use him here with no Curry, but we'll see hopefully

951
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 4: he can pay through that, play through that. But yeah,

952
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 4: he looks He definitely looks like there was a lot

953
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 4: going on off the court for Andrew Wiggins last year

954
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 4: with his family and the health of his father. So

955
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 4: I mean, you can feel like that's been alleviated a

956
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 4: little bit maybe, just like that's out of mine now

957
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 4: and you can just get back to hoopin And he's

958
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 4: been great. That's a good pick. I had him on

959
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 4: my short list here as a.

960
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 5: Summer yesh, hopefully it's a Wiggins come back here.

961
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:41,240
Speaker 4: Yeah.

962
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,839
Speaker 7: My surprise is Jalen Green is shooting eleven and a half.

963
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 7: Three's a game that sounds like a lot for Jalen Green,

964
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,279
Speaker 7: because you know, the rap on Jalen Green is that

965
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 7: he just gets shot happy and that he's only been

966
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,800
Speaker 7: incredibly good shooting the ball for one month.

967
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 5: But he looks damn good. He's shooting his best.

968
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 7: From three point land at forty one percent. He continues

969
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 7: to hit them, so eleven and a half threes. I mean,

970
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 7: he's got to shoots the fourth most threes.

971
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 6: In the leak.

972
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 7: It sounds like a lot period, but as the threes increase,

973
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 7: you're gonna see guys shoot thirteen twelve eleven threes per game.

974
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,879
Speaker 7: So and is first, then it's Tyres Maxy who's bound

975
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,479
Speaker 7: to come down because Paul George and Joel Embiid aren't

976
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 7: taking any shots right.

977
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 5: Now, and LaMelo Ball is third. We'll see if that

978
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 5: keeps up.

979
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 7: But I think Jalen Green will keep up his three,

980
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 7: so he's going to go even higher in the ranks.

981
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 5: Will the percentage to stay up? I think so.

982
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 7: I think that's why Houston gave him this contract. He

983
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 7: can hit them to see that that percentage is it's

984
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 7: it's fairly high, and the numbers keep pomping out. He

985
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 7: had a great night last night, dropping thirty six, shooting

986
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,800
Speaker 7: seven of thirteen. Jalen Green, it's a three point shooting.

987
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, and they got the win in the old

988
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 4: Baseball series against the Spurs. Spurs couldn't take both of them,

989
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 4: so Houston got the victory there last night to split

990
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 4: that one. Good picks. I'm gonna go with a team here.

991
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 4: We sort of talked about it already a little bit,

992
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 4: but the Magic just having one of the best offenses

993
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 4: in the NBA is surprising in a good way. If

994
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,320
Speaker 4: you're an Orlando Magic fan, currently sixth in offensive rating

995
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 4: and they're hitting nearly sixteen threes per game, which is

996
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 4: wild because they were dead last in mad threes last

997
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,560
Speaker 4: season and you had slipped it in Trey you were like,

998
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 4: the weird part is Contavious coldboll Pope who comes to

999
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,759
Speaker 4: this team and we're like, oh, yeah, three and d guy,

1000
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 4: he's gonna give you great defense. They can actually hit

1001
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 4: a three, well, he hasn't been able to so far.

1002
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 4: He's two for seventeen. KCP is from distance, but it

1003
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 4: hasn't mattered because everybody else is on fire. Powell has

1004
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 4: been good at knocking down threes. Sugs is on fire.

1005
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 4: Gary Harris Franz, so you know, Anthony Black even contributing

1006
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 4: a little bit so can they if they look they

1007
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 4: have an elite defense. I just said, if they can

1008
00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 4: be above average offensively. This is a fifty win team

1009
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,440
Speaker 4: in the Eastern Conference and good start for them. I mean,

1010
00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 4: you're I don't know if teams are just like, well,

1011
00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 4: they couldn't hit any last year. Let's see if they

1012
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 4: can hit any of this, and like letting them see

1013
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 4: if they can knock him down, and they are. Will

1014
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 4: it continue? Probably not at the rate they're splashing them,

1015
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 4: not at least all those guys. But I guess the

1016
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,200
Speaker 4: good thing is, well, kcp's not gonna go two for seventeen,

1017
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 4: you know, over the course of a season. Yeah, that percentage,

1018
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 4: So that'll tick up, will somebody else ticks down? It

1019
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:18,240
Speaker 4: just you need to keep fronds pretty high. Gary should

1020
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 4: be okay. And then you know Palo obviously playing at

1021
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 4: an all NBA level and he's always going to get

1022
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 4: to the free throw line as well. So you're pairing

1023
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 4: a bunch of three point shots with a bunch of

1024
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 4: free throws. That's why they have one of these best

1025
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:28,799
Speaker 4: offenses right now.

1026
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 7: I'm surprised Gary Harris is playing at all, but he's

1027
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 7: in the rotation. Jalen Suggs. I thought he would have

1028
00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 7: more energy on the offensive floor, as I said, because

1029
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 7: KCP is there to help out defensively. But this is

1030
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 7: that time of year where we say, oh, this guy

1031
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 7: is so good and his numbers tend to come down.

1032
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,880
Speaker 7: You know, that's just across I mean, even.

1033
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 4: Bringing up Wiggins, we've seen like Wiggins, remember there was

1034
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 4: like weeks where he couldn't miss a three pointer. I'm

1035
00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 4: talking about seasons prior. So yeah, could it happen again? Yeah?

1036
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 6: Probably, But anyways you do that, I personally don't think

1037
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 6: they're gonna have ten guys shooting from three or no,

1038
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 6: probably not.

1039
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 7: Who there was a team last year that did basically

1040
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 7: the same thing that was.

1041
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 6: Like on shot really high percentages could be done.

1042
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, that started super hot first month, ridiculously high three

1043
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:13,920
Speaker 7: point percentage across the board.

1044
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 4: Yeah maybe maybe, Yeah, but the Clippers does ring a bell? Actually?

1045
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 4: All right, final question here, what trend is most or

1046
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 4: least likely to continue? In your opinion?

1047
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, the Nikola Jokic number one playing a ton is

1048
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 7: very interesting and shooting the three ball a ton because

1049
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 7: they don't want to see non Jokic minutes. They just

1050
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 7: do not want to see him on the floor, excuse me,

1051
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 7: on the bench, whatsoever. But this dude, he's playing thirty

1052
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 7: nine minutes a game. He would be playing the most

1053
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 7: by far in his career if he was anywhere close

1054
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,359
Speaker 7: to that. And he's shooting fifty five percent from three,

1055
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,360
Speaker 7: also by far the highest. So those are both questionable

1056
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 7: things that Michael Malone is just saying, Man, I don't

1057
00:46:57,800 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 7: know what we signed up for here with our bench,

1058
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 7: but Yoki, you gotta play, dude. So that's what they

1059
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 7: say every single game. Last game, Dario Sarch as their

1060
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 7: backup center, sat the second half. He played the first half,

1061
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:12,439
Speaker 7: and they said, oh god, this ain't good. You gotta

1062
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 7: sit already. I mean this is game four or game three.

1063
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 7: Excuse me for this team. So the Westbrook Peyne Watson,

1064
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 7: Julian Strather and Dario Sarch combination of four I thought

1065
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 7: would be okay because Westbrook would get enough out of

1066
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 7: the Strather Watson combo on the wing and Sarch. But

1067
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 7: really those two guys and Strather and Watson, they need

1068
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,560
Speaker 7: to combine and be one player because one is good

1069
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 7: on the offensive end and one is good on the

1070
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,600
Speaker 7: defensive end. Sarch just looks he looks old man. He

1071
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:47,279
Speaker 7: looks extremely old and Westbrook takes too many shots and

1072
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 7: so they got to find something otherwise. Ki, he's not

1073
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 7: going to get off the floor. But as Trey said,

1074
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,359
Speaker 7: that's MVP worthy stuff that he's doing right now at

1075
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 7: thirty two points per game, ten boards, seven assists and

1076
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 7: great freaking percentages. Great percentages. But I don't know how

1077
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,160
Speaker 7: long they can keep it going. But at the same time,

1078
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,600
Speaker 7: John Berry hasn't started all that good. Michael Porter the same,

1079
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 7: even though Aaron Gordon is contributing enough, and the Saint

1080
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 7: a Christian Brown replacing KCP prom.

1081
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 4: But stinks.

1082
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:22,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is.

1083
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,359
Speaker 6: They've lost too much in the past three years. They've

1084
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 6: lost too much, is what it is. And they have

1085
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,240
Speaker 6: three backup centers. They can't play any of them. Sorrich,

1086
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 6: you should have known when the Warriors let him go.

1087
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 6: If the Warriors let a veteran go, he's done. Think

1088
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,760
Speaker 6: about Namania be Elitza won a championship out of the league.

1089
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 6: Otto Porter signed with the Raptors, never played out of

1090
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,239
Speaker 6: the league. Sich is the next guy. He's just he's

1091
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,399
Speaker 6: just done. If it doesn't work with the Warriors, it's

1092
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 6: not gonna work. Zeke Nagy they paid him, can't play

1093
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 6: him at all right now, and DeAndre Jordan's just there

1094
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 6: for the vibes. Aaron Gordon is their backup center unfortunately

1095
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 6: is also their starting power forward. Yeah, so that's the problem.

1096
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 6: They played basically eight guys down the stretch last night

1097
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 6: and it's Game three of the NBA Sea Oh the malone.

1098
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 4: Was like, we need a w We are going for

1099
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 4: this web for sure.

1100
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 7: The Aaron Gordon tippin was amazing. He contributed a beautiful

1101
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 7: tip in. But yeah, it's it's the guys who replace

1102
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 7: the replacers that's the problem. Christian Brown is freaking awesome,

1103
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 7: but who replaces him off the bench. They seriously do

1104
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 7: not have one. So yeah, the whole Bruce Brown can

1105
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:26,359
Speaker 7: be replaced, okay, but then you let somebody else go

1106
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,359
Speaker 7: and KCP and they just don't have enough replacing guys

1107
00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:32,239
Speaker 7: to replace the replacers. And yeah, the Nausey Marshall thing

1108
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 7: ain't working all. The Nause's ain't playing well in the NBA.

1109
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 7: Zeek Naji Naji Marshall for the Mavericks. He can't hit

1110
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 7: a three to this point, even though you're supposed to do.

1111
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:42,120
Speaker 5: But anyway, the.

1112
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,839
Speaker 7: Nuggets just got depth problems. I just I wonder how

1113
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,959
Speaker 7: long Yokic can deal with this. And he's he gets

1114
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 7: in there, He's like, Okay, I'll just shoot every three.

1115
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:50,839
Speaker 7: He never used to do that. You know, it's way

1116
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,839
Speaker 7: more threes now because he just realizes, dude, we don't

1117
00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:54,160
Speaker 7: have enough.

1118
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, same question for you, TK, Trent most or least

1119
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 4: likely to continue.

1120
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 6: I'm buying the Chet all star leap. I don't know

1121
00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:02,879
Speaker 6: if he will make the All Star team. It's tough

1122
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,040
Speaker 6: to make it, blah blah blah, all this stuff. But

1123
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 6: the guys at twenty four points a game, thirteen rebounds,

1124
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 6: three assists, a steal, and four blocks a game. Right now,

1125
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 6: these are unsustainable percentages, but it's not unreasonable. I don't

1126
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 6: think for Chet to be basically twenty and ten with

1127
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 6: a couple of blocks a game and a steal. He's

1128
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 6: made strides basically everywhere on the court. I feel like

1129
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,479
Speaker 6: right now, except for he's not shooting the three very well,

1130
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 6: but his handle looks better, he looks stronger, He's definitely

1131
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:31,800
Speaker 6: a better playmaker this season. Okay, see is also first

1132
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 6: in defense, so I wonder if when it gets time

1133
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 6: to coaches voting and that kind of stuff. They say, Man,

1134
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 6: this team is impossible to score on, and part of

1135
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 6: that is because they've got a great rim defender in

1136
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,239
Speaker 6: chet Holmgrin, So getting two All Stars will just be tough.

1137
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,319
Speaker 6: Shay will make it absolutely, But then I think, you know,

1138
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 6: Jalen Williams, and obviously Chet should be in the conversation

1139
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 6: come January. In February, he looks great, and he looks

1140
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 6: like he's like a top five center in the league

1141
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 6: right now. It's been a week, but the guy had

1142
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 6: a ton of potential coming into the league and he's

1143
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 6: playing up to it.

1144
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1145
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. If you're ranking them right now, it's

1146
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 4: it's Shay, And then Chet is ahead of Jaalen Williams

1147
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 4: in terms of like an All Star selection. Yeah, without it.

1148
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 7: I love how Chet just gets into his offense way faster.

1149
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:16,200
Speaker 5: In the mid range.

1150
00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 7: He just feels way more confident, and that makes sense.

1151
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,760
Speaker 7: This is his second year in the NBA. He looks

1152
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 7: like he wants to take two point shots, which it

1153
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:25,800
Speaker 7: didn't seem that way last year. In the mid range,

1154
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:28,040
Speaker 7: she looks great. What was that photo going around of

1155
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 7: his teammate Jaalen Williams going around looking a little plump. Well,

1156
00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 7: he was in his jersey and maybe it was just

1157
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 7: a profile photo, so the camera made him look like

1158
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 7: he had it looks like, yeah, belly a little bit.

1159
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 7: Maybe it's maybe he had a padding on his gut.

1160
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 7: You know, he's playing with those those pads. But he

1161
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,800
Speaker 7: had a tucked in jersey. Yeah, and he just looked.

1162
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 4: Could have been hard And ask could it have been

1163
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:55,400
Speaker 4: like billowing a little bit like the fabric?

1164
00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 6: I'm having trouble. I'm like, if I supposed to look

1165
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:05,040
Speaker 6: up a Williams chubby, Yeah, try plump plum? Okay, yeah,

1166
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:07,959
Speaker 6: all right.

1167
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 4: So let's hear your answers to all three of those questions,

1168
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,880
Speaker 4: sort of like taking stock here of one week of

1169
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,279
Speaker 4: NBA action in terms of under the radar and surprises

1170
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,000
Speaker 4: and trends and stuff like that. All right, tonight's pick

1171
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:23,040
Speaker 4: them game tasks. We're going MAVs Wolves, and Minnesota's favored

1172
00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 4: by five and a half at home, Mavericks back to

1173
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 4: back situation. Was this one of those schedule losses or

1174
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 4: Dallas coming off a win last night against the Jazz,

1175
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 4: Well they have no problem at least keeping it close

1176
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 4: or split on this one.

1177
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:39,799
Speaker 7: Yeah, when I first looked at that five and a half,

1178
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:40,479
Speaker 7: it seems big.

1179
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 4: It did seem a little big. It seems large. Yeah,

1180
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 4: but if.

1181
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,400
Speaker 7: You want to take it from the Minnesota side, they

1182
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 7: want revenge for that Western Conference finals that ended as

1183
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,240
Speaker 7: a gentleman sweep that the Maps took care of business

1184
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 7: three to one. So it is a little surprising that

1185
00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 7: we are split, and that Skeets and Asher taking Dallas

1186
00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 7: yep to win by six or more.

1187
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,879
Speaker 5: While oh no, no, no, to cover Yeah, by six or more.

1188
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 4: I thought Minnesota was fixed.

1189
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, then they that's totally wrong.

1190
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 6: I just sa yeah, exactly, that's why.

1191
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, five or least, Els just has to lose by

1192
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:12,960
Speaker 7: five or less. Wall Tray and I believe that Minnesota

1193
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 7: will win by six or more.

1194
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, no revenge, Trey, what do.

1195
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:17,799
Speaker 6: You think revenge? Yeah?

1196
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 5: I think so too.

1197
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 4: And uh after last night's results, it's tight right now.

1198
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 4: Tass and Ash for three and two, and Trey and

1199
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 4: I are two and three, and well, we don't have

1200
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 4: a lot of October left here, so it's we're gonna

1201
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 4: know by the end of this week. Who's wearing a

1202
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,279
Speaker 4: pickle costume for a whole week, so can't wait. We

1203
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:38,320
Speaker 4: got Nuggets Nets tonight, MAVs Wolves obviously on TNT, Kings Jazz,

1204
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 4: and then the late game is Pelicans Warriors also on

1205
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 4: tn T. It's only four games on tonight, so I

1206
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:47,480
Speaker 4: light schedule for us after a very busy last night.

1207
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 4: Any other stories from the Fortress, so you want to

1208
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 4: share something else?

1209
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 6: I went with Joe Mandy. Yes, our friend and a

1210
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 6: comedian slash writer. And he got recognized for being on

1211
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 6: the show Hacks. Good for him, yeah, and he was shocked.

1212
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,040
Speaker 4: Oh, it doesn't happen often.

1213
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 6: I wonder what the crossover is HACKS fans an NBA fans.

1214
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 5: Wow.

1215
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 6: Wow, But the guy just said Hacks is a good show.

1216
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 4: Oh he didn't say head show, just kept it moving.

1217
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 4: He didn't want to. I didn't want an autograph.

1218
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 6: What else? I got a bobblehead, got Harry bobbleh.

1219
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 4: First five thousand in the building.

1220
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 6: I was there early. Where to go? Players clubs? You know?

1221
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 6: One tweezy hat. Three forms of chicken last night's skeets

1222
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 6: shredded chicken, chicken, wing, chicken tender.

1223
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 5: Wow them.

1224
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 6: I like the shredded chicken. Okay, it was like I

1225
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 6: like a Chipotle chicken wakes with beans and rice. Very delicious.

1226
00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 6: And then I thought the tenders were better than the wings.

1227
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,760
Speaker 6: It seemed like a wing that was frozen and reheated.

1228
00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 6: You know how it is.

1229
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 4: I'm sure the tenders were the exact same thing. Yeah,

1230
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,520
Speaker 4: but a better fry. Yeah sure, sure, all right, let's

1231
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 4: have you back on the chicken rankings. I can't wait

1232
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,000
Speaker 4: to get down there. All right, let's call it there again.
