Speaker 2: tangents on that one, some great story times from Leley.

20
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: I had a business idea for dogs. JD talked about

21
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 2: his dogs, buttole it was a blast. It was a

22
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: lot of fun. So go check out that Beach step

23
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: In podcast. And then late last night. JD wasn't done

24
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: at the Classic Factory work in the late night shift,

25
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 2: the graveyard shift. Leley, you talked with Australian basketball legend

26
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 2: Shane Heel the Hammer and that podcast, of course is

27
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 2: up in your podcast feed and also on YouTube. How

28
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: did that go. I haven't had a chance to even

29
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 2: watch or listen to it yet.

30
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 4: It was a lot of fun, Shine Heel, He's a

31
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 4: legend in the Australian possible world. But I, uh look

32
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 4: felt a little bit guilty during this one because we

33
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: were a little bit late getting started a little bit.

34
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,239
Speaker 4: Poor poor old j D was just there and I

35
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 4: knew he had to do a little bit of scrubbing

36
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 4: at the end of it as well to get the audio.

37
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 4: There was a few little internet connection problems as well.

38
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 4: So I had a great time, but in the back

39
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 4: of my mind, I was like, JD might just cut

40
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 4: this one. I just say I'm going to be I've

41
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 4: been this a six o'clock in the morning. I've got

42
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,839
Speaker 4: to be up again at six o'clock tomorrow morning. So yeah,

43
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 4: it was a great, great chat there with the with

44
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 4: the Hammer and a lot of fun to talk to him.

45
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 2: Well, JD, did you consider it.

46
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, oh yeah, we're done here.

47
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: It was that bad? Was it were fine?

48
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: And it was fine? It was what else am I doing?

49
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 5: That's a quick point.

50
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 2: It's not like you're going anywhere. Also, I can't believe

51
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: we forgot to slip this in yesterday. That's on me.

52
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: It's my bad to be honest. But everybody tweeting at

Speaker 2: I like that. Ah yeah, so I guess yeah, Garth

64
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 2: Brooks putting on a show there yesterday. Okay, so we

65
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 2: got a lot to actually talk about here today on

66
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 2: this Thursday podcast We've got of course, tweeted the night

67
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 2: I got a fun top five we've got some iss

68
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 2: this news, But first five games, one thing, A lot

69
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: of basketball on last night. We won't get to every

70
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: single game, but the first one, you know where we're starting.

71
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving returns, but the new look Nets are beaten

72
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: by Colin Sexton and the Cavs in double overtime, a

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: really really entertaining gamely back and forth, obviously not a

74
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 2: lot of defense, and Sexton caught fire. But what's the

75
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 2: big takeaway from Cavaliers Number one fan Lee Ellis?

76
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 4: How can I take one thing out of this game?

77
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 4: Because this was certainly game of the night, maybe even

78
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 4: game of the season. Do you want took highlights, storylines, narratives.

79
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 4: I don't know which one was the most important one

80
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 4: last night, but let's go with highlights. Because Colin Sexton

81
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 4: in overtime put on one of the in double overtime,

82
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 4: I should say, put on one of the most incredible

83
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 4: overtime performances I think we've ever seen in the NBA

84
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 4: points twenty two combined points fifteen of the teams twenty

85
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 4: in that double overtime, and not only was he making shots,

86
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 4: but he was hitting Kyrie Irving with Kyrie Irving type shots.

87
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 4: While wearing Kyrie Irving's shoes, while wearing Kyrie Irving's number,

88
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: while playing in Cleveland, where Kyrie Irving was a superstar

89
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 4: there as well. It was just incredible and seeing seeing

90
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 4: the confidence in which Colin Sexton sort of played and

91
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 4: carried his team to the victory, because the Cavs led

92
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 4: this game a lot in regulation, and it sort of

93
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 4: felt like Kevin Duran is just going to say, Okay,

94
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,039
Speaker 4: little brother, you guys have had your fun tonight and

95
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 4: I'm just going to close this game out. They get

96
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 4: it to overtime, and then in overtime it's like they're

97
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 4: leading by two possessions there the nets, and you're like,

98
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 4: same thing. It's going to be one of those good

99
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 4: moral victory here from the Cavs. They fought hard, they

100
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 4: get it to double overtime, and then in double overtime,

101
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 4: Colin Sexton just became basically Alan iverson Michael Jordan, whoever

102
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 4: you want exactly Ellis hitting those three pointers and the

103
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 4: one that sealed it. To compare it to complete the

104
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 4: Kyrie Irving comparisons, was a side step to the right

105
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 4: wing over Jeff Green, not over Kyrie Irving. Reminiscent of

106
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 4: the biggest shot in Cleveland Cavaliers history. This was such

107
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 4: a fun game. There are so many storylines within the

108
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 4: storylines as well. I mean, obviously Kyrie's first game with

109
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 4: James Harden as a Brooklyn net the big three out there, well,

110
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 4: James Harden still had a triple double, Kevin Duran almost did,

111
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: and Kyrie had thirty seven points. So I mean they

112
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 4: all performed well. They played well. Defense let them down,

113
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: but more than the defense, it was just one of

114
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 4: those performances that we're going to look back at and say,

115
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 4: Colin Sexton was unstoppable. Good offense always beats good defense,

116
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 4: and that was another case of last night. Go back

117
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 4: and watch this game if he can. I don't think

118
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 4: we can really sum it all up in this show

119
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 4: here unless we want to go on for another hour

120
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 4: or two just about this game, because so many little

121
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 4: things happened, miss free throws, big shots, clutch moments, an

122
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 4: incredibly fun game to watch.

123
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 2: All on the day, slash Nate where you were wearing

124
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 2: a greetings from sex Land t shirt too, as we

125
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: pointed out on Twitter last night, and incredible timing on

126
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: your part.

127
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 4: Just amazing stuff and I mean, because I think I

128
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 4: don't think he was definitely coming back until earlier in

129
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 4: the day too, So.

130
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: That's right, he had missed some time. You're right, yes, and.

131
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 4: There's still no Garland out there. But seeing Kevin Love

132
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 4: on the side as well, just seeing how happy he

133
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 4: was for his teammates roaring away, cheering that they were

134
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 4: piggybacking each other, but they all had their face masks

135
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 4: on as well, like no one, no one broke protocol

136
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 4: on the side. Everyone was well behaved, and oh my god,

137
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 4: you know, there's there's just so many things that happened

138
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 4: in this game that you know, like I say, we

139
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 4: won't get to all of them, but Collin Sexton hitting

140
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 4: those threes and hitting the dagger to send the game

141
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 4: to second overtime because the.

142
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 2: Game tying three at the end of the first all

143
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: the time, Okay, that's I mean, there's a there's a

144
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 2: storyline right there, right. Why didn't the Nets foul first

145
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 2: off the second time? Because they had fouled first they.

146
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 4: Say out purposely they had one to give so it

147
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 4: didn't put him to the line, which is like, okay,

148
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 4: just to sort of break the momentum. But yeah, I agree.

149
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 4: If you're gonna do it, then you imagine fail him

150
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 4: that second time, especially because he's right there too, and

151
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 4: that one was over Kyrie Irving another sort of Kyrie

152
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 4: type shot, sort of almost like lost the ball, raised

153
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 4: up and knocked down the three.

154
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then why was Kyrie even on the floor.

155
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 2: I think you could make an argument for right Trey,

156
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 2: like you can ask Steve Nash like, like, that's a

157
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,239
Speaker 2: defensive possession. You're up three, you just need to stop.

158
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: I know no one on the net stops anybody, but

159
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 2: Kyrie is not gonna be the lockdown defender in that case.

160
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: You might want to put Brown on that on a

161
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 2: sex in that situation. I think that's a fair criticism

162
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 2: to what Steve Nash was doing in that position. What

163
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: do you think maybe in the playoffs you do that.

164
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 2: I don't think it really matters.

165
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: Last night, it's Kyrie Irving's return after being gone for

166
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. There's no way you're benching him

167
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: for an important possession, even if it's going to help

168
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: you win the game. You gotta stroke the ego a

169
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: little bit there. I would have liked to see some

170
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: kind of a substitution from the Nets. You know, they

171
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: had their starters playing for basically the last fifteen straight

172
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: minutes of the game. They looked tired by the time

173
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: it got to double overtime. But you're right, Lee, this

174
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: was awesome. This was great to watch sex bomb just

175
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: dropping Tom Jones here and there.

176
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 4: It was fun stuff.

177
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: So many weird calls, like the offensive foul slash face

178
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: smash that Kyrie Irving and Colin Sexton had at the

179
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: end of I guess that was the end of regulation

180
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: right at the end of fourth quarter with that challenge,

181
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: and it looked like, is this going to be a

182
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: double foul because Kyrie definitely hit him in the mouth,

183
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 1: but Colin Sexton definitely stuck his mouth on Kyrie Irving's elbow.

184
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: It felt like the Nets were gonna win this one.

185
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: In regulation. It felt like they were just rope a

186
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 1: dope in the calves the entire time. We're turning it

187
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: on in the fourth quarter, James Harden's gonna actually start

188
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: taking some shots instead of just being the point guard.

189
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: And you give it to Kyrie to try and win

190
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: the game on his first time back in Cleveland and

191
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: four seat in four years. It didn't turn out that way,

192
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: and lucky for us it didn't because this was an

193
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: awesome game. Was also great to see Jared Allen and

194
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: Torrian Prince having revenge games against the Nets. You were

195
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: looking out there. You even heard Richard Jefferson saying like

196
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: they don't have Jared Allen to stop Jared Allen anymore

197
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: because he was running wild for a little bit. Everything

198
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: that you would think about the Nets came true in

199
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: this game. Who's gonna be taken the last shots? Are

200
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: they gonna be able to get stops defensively? Are they

201
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: gonna have enough depth? It felt like it was gonna

202
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: work out in the end. But too much sex last.

203
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 2: Night, and too much sex, I would say too. I

204
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 2: mean that game tying three that Sexton hit over Kyrie.

205
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: I don't think he should have been out there, but

206
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 2: a huge shot and he sort of fumbled it like

207
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 2: you said, Lee and then still hit it. I think

208
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 2: the more impressive play may have been the one before that,

209
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 2: where I think it was Cheddy Osmond air bawls of three.

210
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: The Cows are down three. There's like fifteen seconds left

211
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: in the game. In the overtime period. It looks like

212
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: they're gonna lose Cheddy Osmond airballs it badly. Luckily he

213
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: did though, because Sexton grabbed it and then in one

214
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 2: fell swoop like put back, like a little up and

215
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 2: under put back. It was really gorgeous and that was

216
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: huge obviously it made it a one point game, and

217
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 2: then they had a chance, of course for him to

218
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 2: hit the tying three. Yeah, he was just and then

219
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 2: yeah in the double overtime, I mean, how many did

220
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: he string together in a row at one point? Was it?

221
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 2: Was it twenty points?

222
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 4: Twenty? Yeah, I think I think le Brunzi on the

223
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 4: other Cavs actually done that.

224
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 2: That is that's a lot. That's incredible. But you know,

225
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: a lot of the storyline from this one is like

226
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: what you did think of the Big Three, you guys

227
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 2: said the lines there, I mean, just massive for all

228
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 2: three of them. Though Harden didn't take a ton of shots.

229
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 2: But it's funny to me like hearing like some of

230
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 2: these pundits and analysts talk about like, oh, I mean,

231
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: you know, Harden needs more shots. Okay, maybe the ball

232
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: should be his hands more, but it's like the offense

233
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 2: is not the problem at all. There's no problem. It

234
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. They're gonna score one hundred and twenty five

235
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,679
Speaker 2: in their sleeep. These two guys, it's only defense, and

236
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: they have to play some of it. You do, you

237
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: gotta get obviously some time he stops and they're gonna

238
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 2: have to find some guys here like this, Jeff Green

239
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 2: at the five. You can't go all season with this.

240
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 2: I mean you can probably do it in spot minutes

241
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 2: here and in particular playoffs, you know, matchup, sure, I

242
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 2: get it. Not all season. Yeah, you're gonna run these

243
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 2: guys into the ground.

244
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: This guy got hit in the nuts so many times

245
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: last night. There's no way Jeff Green is gonna want

246
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: to be the center for the entire season. But it's

247
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 1: very funny to hear afterwards Hyree saying it's gonna come

248
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: down to defensively, what we're gonna put in the effort

249
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: on that side of the corner if we're gonna have

250
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 1: a successful season. Just like Steve Nash back in the day,

251
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: it's all about defense. No, it's not. They're gonna try

252
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: and out score teams. They should be focusing on defense.

253
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 1: But literally, who is gonna teach them?

254
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, they needed they needed PJ. Tucker to come back

255
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 2: in that hard and trade, like be included in that

256
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 2: trade so much, like just even a Tucker and of

257
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: course being a smaller guy, but a guy that can

258
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 2: actually play some defense and sort of get guys in

259
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,680
Speaker 2: the right position and stuff like that, like a Draymond Green. Like, yeah,

260
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 2: they gotta go get someone because this is not gonna work,

261
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: not all. Like it's gonna be fun as hell to watch,

262
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 2: I mean, because they give up so many points and

263
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 2: they score so many points on the other end. But

264
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 2: I don't think you can win. I personally don't think

265
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 2: they can win four playoff series like sleep.

266
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 4: Well, I mean zero defense. We saw them against the

267
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 4: Bucks the other night. They pulled it out, you know.

268
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 4: I mean, and the Bucks are probably, you know, their

269
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 4: biggest competition in the East. So you know, do they

270
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 4: have enough you think just in the East? I think

271
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 4: they still probably do, I think, But will that be

272
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 4: enough against potentially the Lakers in the in the finals,

273
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 4: I mean probably not. But you know, what does Sean

274
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: Mars do now? Does he has he got the ability

275
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 4: to go out there and get a quality I think

276
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 4: they need more than one defender. I think they need

277
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 4: a rim protector and they need a perimeter guy. Yeah,

278
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 4: So can he go out and get that because you

279
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 4: know you've got Lua Wu Cabareau who you know, that's

280
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 4: that's the opportunity for him to do it. But I

281
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 4: don't think he's quite up to the task of being

282
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 4: on the floor long enough. So there's still some things

283
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 4: to do here for the for the nest. But I

284
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 4: think offensively, you know, of course, all these guys can

285
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 4: score and get their basket whenever they want. How long

286
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 4: is it going to take before they really start clicking

287
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 4: and deciding how they're running that offense. Is it just like, okay,

288
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 4: your turn might turn his turn, or is it like, okay,

289
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 4: you know at the end of the games, we're just

290
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 4: running this with KD to get him his high percentage

291
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 4: looks where he can just curl into the sort of

292
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 4: top of the paint there and hit that shot, because

293
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 4: I think that's probably their most reliable basket, you know,

294
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 4: just run a screen. But that means someone like Kyrie

295
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 4: or Harden is out of that possession. So yeah, you're

296
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: good again, good problem for Steve Nash to have, But

297
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: I think you do need to almost say this is

298
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 4: our bread and basket play here because they need they

299
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 4: need some sort of definition.

300
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 2: I think bread and Basket player Bread with the basket.

301
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 4: Like two nights ago, we had two games and they

302
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 4: were kind of stinkers. Right last night when I had

303
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 4: the Hammer on, I was like trying to play catch up.

304
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 4: After that, everything went absolutely crazy. Last night. I'm like,

305
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 4: oh my god, I was just like you, trying to scramble,

306
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 4: trying to watch all these games, trying to consume all

307
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 4: this information and then sort of say it out in

308
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 4: a sensible format. This morning, I thought, there's no way

309
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 4: this is going to happen. Absolutely no way, lie by

310
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:00,679
Speaker 4: the City of Yours today.

311
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, you start to like panic when there's

312
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: too many close games on. You're like trying to keep

313
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 2: your eye on Okay, well what's embiid doing? Okay, what's

314
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 2: sex and then doing, oh my god, col Anthony had

315
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 2: a game winner, like blah blah blah, Like it's a lot,

316
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: it's a lot, but it's a good problem to have that.

317
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 2: We're like the Steve nash A podcast right now, you know,

318
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: this is a good problem. We got so many great games. Okay,

319
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 2: anything else from this Cavs Nets game, Okay, let's keep

320
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 2: it going. Then let's get to uh Embiid. He scored

321
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: forty two. He helped lead the Sixers past the Celtics

322
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 2: one seventeen to one on nine. Pretty high scoring affair

323
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: too for these two teams. Try a big takeaway from.

324
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: This one another MVP like performance from Joel Embiid. Like

325
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: you said, forty two and ten. He was dominant inside

326
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: and you can tell that the Celtics just don't have

327
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: an answer for Joel Embiid. It used to be Aaron

328
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: Baines back in the day. It used to be Al

329
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: Horford back in the day, but right now they don't

330
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: have anybody there because it's going to be either Daniel

331
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: Tice or Tristan Thompson. And Embiid was just putting them

332
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: underneath the basket, and the Sixers were doing a great

333
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: job of actually getting him the ball in places where

334
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: he could score.

335
00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 2: But the big.

336
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: Story is that Joe Embiid an MVP like line, also

337
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: a shack like line, twenty one free throw attempts, and

338
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: he got called out afterwards by Marcus Smart basically saying

339
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: if I took that many free throws, I'd score forty

340
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: two a game, to which Embiid says, well, guess what

341
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: you would know about flopping because you flop all the time.

342
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: And honestly, Embiid was flopping the entire time. But Daniel

343
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: Tice was flopping the entire time too, because he can't

344
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: guard Joel Embiid. He's got to do something to try

345
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: and take him out of his game. There's a lot

346
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: of bodies flying around. I'm sure Lee was loving those big,

347
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 1: strong bodies banging into each other, but I don't know.

348
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: Embiid is impossible to guard. Embiid is impossible to officiate,

349
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: just like shaqwas back in the day. He draws so

350
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: much contact. He is a bit of a grifter with

351
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: the pump fakes, and they're slamming into guys and taking

352
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: tough shots and trying to get to the line. But

353
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: that's a good way to be an efficient scorer. So

354
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: if you like free throws, if you're a Leelis and

355
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: you love free throws, this one's for you. But if

356
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: you hate flopping, maybe not. Because on Sports Center afterwards,

357
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 1: it was just the Phantom of the Flopper and it

358
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: felt like it was all just from this game. I

359
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: love it. I love to see that kind of beef

360
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 1: as well.

361
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 2: Well, what do you think, Lee of Embiids getting all

362
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 2: into the free throw line all these times, maybe selling

363
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 2: some of them, and then Smart's comments as well, this.

364
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 4: Is the Joel em Bead I want to see where

365
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 4: it's like they can't guard me, so I'm going to

366
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 4: force them to found me, get them frustrated, and then

367
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 4: I'm going to go to the free throw line and

368
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 4: knock them down, because that is what Shaq you know,

369
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 4: remember Hackershack started when guys just used to jump on

370
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 4: him because they couldn't stop him, and he would go

371
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 4: to the free throw line. Well, that's what Embiid needs

372
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 4: to do, because he didn't do this down in the

373
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 4: bubble when we saw the sixers and the nets down

374
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 4: a sixers and the Celtics time up there. Because he

375
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 4: has that physical advantage and you've got to make the

376
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 4: most of that, you know, because he's got that little

377
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 4: mid range game as well, where he can say if

378
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 4: I'm going to go inside and you're going to found me,

379
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 4: then I'm going to step out and if you give

380
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 4: me that little room, I'm going to knock down that

381
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 4: jump shot. So that's the sort of player he wants

382
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 4: to see. Now, I will say, no, Jason Tatum here

383
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 4: for the Celtics, he's likely to be back. I think

384
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 4: they play in tomorrow night, so that should be an

385
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 4: interesting rematch to have because I think obviously him is

386
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 4: their best player, so the Sixers were an advantage. But

387
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 4: Joel Embiid needs to be like I'm too big, I'm

388
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 4: too strong, and you guys are going to get him

389
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 4: foul trouble. I think Doc Rivers has been trying to

390
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 4: hammer that home because we have seen it a few

391
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 4: times this season and against a team like the Celtics.

392
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 4: This is likely a team they'll face or they'll certainly

393
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 4: have to beat in the playoffs if they're going to advance.

394
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 4: And Joelle Embiid is better than any of their bigs

395
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 4: that they've got, so good performance by him. But yeah,

396
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 4: the Marcus Smart stuff. I love Marcus Matt. I think

397
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 4: he's an incredible player. He's really got a lot out

398
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 4: of his talent because don't think he's a great sort

399
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,639
Speaker 4: of shooter, score a type of guy. But he can

400
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 4: never ever call anyone out for flopping. Ever, oh my god. Ever,

401
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,399
Speaker 4: one of my most engaged tweets from the bubble was

402
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 4: Marcus Smart against the Raptors, where he basically did a

403
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,679
Speaker 4: springboard dive Pascal Siaka into the thing. He got fined

404
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 4: for it by the NBA. So Marcus, I love you,

405
00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 4: but you cannot ever, ever under any circumstances site You'll flopping, does.

406
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: Everybody else right, right, unless you're looking in the mirror exactly? Yeah, yes, yes,

407
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 2: all right. Well look, I mean this is another awesome

408
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 2: game from Embid. You guys are right, I think if

409
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 2: you're the rest of the Eastern Conference especially, you gotta

410
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 2: the way he's playing right now, and he's out there

411
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 2: for most of it, and the numbers he's putting up

412
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,479
Speaker 2: and get into the line like crazy, and the difference

413
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 2: from Shack. Let me point out too, you know, hack

414
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: of Shack he could do because Shak's gonna miss one

415
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 2: of those two free throws for the most part, and

416
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 2: be it's like an eighty four percent free throw shooter

417
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: like this year. Like he is basically money for a

418
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 2: guy his size. He's pretty much cash at the line.

419
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 2: But you gotta be these other Eastern Conference teams right

420
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 2: Tred like looking at him, be playing like this, going jeez,

421
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 2: we got we gotta might have to come up with

422
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 2: a game plan. We might have to get some guys

423
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 2: like you said, is it Bainsy, can you go get

424
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: him from the Raptors to try and slow him down

425
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 2: in a playoff series. I'm dead serious, Like, if he

426
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 2: does this, then that's it. That's just that tilts the

427
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 2: equation in the favor of the Sixers in any series.

428
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: In my opinion, if this is the embid, you get

429
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: the playoffs. Unfortunately, we've seen time after time, either because

430
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 2: of matchups guys that just get the best of him,

431
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,199
Speaker 2: like a Gasol or maybe even a Beanzy, or he'd like,

432
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,719
Speaker 2: you know, he's in and out of the lineup for

433
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: whatever reason because of injuries and illnesses and weird things

434
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 2: like that. So I don't know, man, I wouldn't want

435
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 2: to have to play him in a playoff series when

436
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 2: he's like this, And you wonder if they start thinking

437
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 2: about that a little bit some of the other teams.

438
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: Definitely, And it was even part of the strategy for

439
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: the Sixers a couple of seasons ago, right when they

440
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: signed Al Horford away from the Celtics. Citta, we're getting

441
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,959
Speaker 1: rid of your best embiid defensive stopper, So now that

442
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: guy's not there, he was telling Tristan Thompson, you're too

443
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: small and Tristan Thompson's like six ten two seventy five.

444
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 1: That's pretty impressive stuff. But like you're saying, what's it

445
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: going to be like in the playoffs, that's a long

446
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: time from now. How will Embiid be feeling health wise?

447
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 1: He has been on one for the entirety of the

448
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: season so far, but that's still four months to go

449
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: from here. And honestly, I think the Celtics would play

450
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 1: things differently too. The entry passes were a little bit

451
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: too easy to Embid, so you're probably see a lot

452
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: more pressure on the wings trying to make it tough

453
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: because it can be hard for a big guy to

454
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: get the ball down the stretch, but it was not

455
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: hard for Embiid to get the ball last night. I

456
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: also thought Tobias Harris had another good game. He had

457
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: twenty two points, only took seventeen shots, which seems like

458
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 1: a lot, but he made nine of them, also had

459
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: five assists. Doc Rivers has him making really quick decisions

460
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: and when he's not just catching it, should I pump fake?

461
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 1: Should I take a twenty foot? Should I take a three?

462
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: Should I move the ball? When he just catches it

463
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 1: and does something. It's working out and.

464
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 2: The bean town boys will be happy with Kemba Walker's

465
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 2: performance in this one too. Obviously had a bit of

466
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 2: a stinker there in his first game I guess against

467
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: the Knicks was it, and this one he was hitting

468
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 2: the three ball. I think he had five in total,

469
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 2: so he was looking a little bit more like you

470
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 2: know the Kembo with that that pull up off the dribble.

471
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: Three was going for him. So that's a good sign. Yeah.

472
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: It was another fun game though. This was one going

473
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,920
Speaker 2: on again where the Sexton game was going on, like jeez,

474
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: which one do I watch? How do I do this?

475
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: And then people, you know, I tweeted out, was like

476
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 2: which game do I watch? People say, well, just get

477
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 2: the mosaic view going watch four games. That's not what

478
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 2: You're not watching any game when you have four games

479
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 2: on your one screen. I'm sorry, you're not You're not

480
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 2: doing it. I can't do that two okay, you know,

481
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: because of break in plays and free throw you can

482
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,719
Speaker 2: get away with a little bit more. Not four. Am

483
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 2: I wrong?

484
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 4: Lely, No, you're not wrong. Yeah, you've got to watch one.

485
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 4: Because you watch one, you can consume one you're watching four,

486
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 4: you're not consuming any You're just sort of like, what's

487
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 4: happening there, what's happening and you're missing all the good stuff.

488
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 4: So yeah, you have to commit to one maximum of

489
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 4: two and then and then play the catch up game.

490
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: Right, Okay, that's what we do here. This was a

491
00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: fun catch up game for me this morning. I mean,

492
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 2: you saw the highlights I'm sure going around Twitter last night.

493
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 2: But Cole Anthony hits a buzzer beating three magic edge

494
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 2: the Wolves ninety seven ninety six leally big takeaway.

495
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 4: Ah man, both of these teams are probably looking at

496
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 4: each other going, great, we've got we've got the other

497
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,360
Speaker 4: team on the schedule tonight, because they've both been struggling

498
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 4: really badly. And it looked like the Timberwolves they are

499
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 4: up twenty, they're up two possessions. With thirty five seconds ago,

500
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 4: you were like, the Timbers are finally going to break

501
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 4: through here and they still couldn't do a col Anthony

502
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 4: hits one three from the corner there, jarref Vanderbilt had

503
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 4: a couple of three throws at the other end to

504
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 4: basically seal the game, plunk them both and then Cole

505
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 4: Anthony the rookie runs down the other end, hasn't got

506
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 4: any time to think about it, just fires away from three.

507
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 4: It's the dagger three that just it was just a

508
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 4: crushing blow for the Minnesota Timberwolves and Coyle Anthony's dad, Greg,

509
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 4: There's there's footage of him. If you haven't seen it,

510
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 4: go to like the NBA TV channels. You can see

511
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 4: just a big fist pump, just so happy for his

512
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 4: son to hit that big game winning shot in his

513
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 4: first chance in his NBA career and he does it.

514
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 4: So yeah, if you're if you're a Timberwolves fan, man,

515
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 4: things are tough right now. Karl Anthony Towns is out

516
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 4: with COVID and they just cannot catch a break at all.

517
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 4: They like, say, they led this one.

518
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 2: They were thirteen points with like six minutes to go,

519
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 2: and yeah, yeah it's pretty good lead.

520
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 4: You just could not finish it off. So yeah, maybe

521
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 4: don't go back and watch this one because it's it's

522
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 4: just it's just tough to see. I mean, you know,

523
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 4: like we certainly I didn't think the Timberwolves had a

524
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 4: great team this season, but you just want to see

525
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 4: a team have just a bright go their way, you know,

526
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 4: the ball go their way and against another team that's struggling.

527
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,239
Speaker 4: Last night was a perfect opportunity for them, and they

528
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 4: still couldn't get it. So yeah, tough one for the

529
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 4: minute Minnesota Timberwolves.

530
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 2: I was a pure game winner though. Oh yeah, holy anthey,

531
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 2: that was sweet. Like no lucky bounce or anything like that.

532
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 2: All the confidence in the world bringing it up, you know, Gordon,

533
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 2: I think is like maybe expecting even to get the

534
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 2: ball back. Yeah, you know, there's a ton of time.

535
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 2: Gordon got the rebound and kicked it out to them

536
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 2: so they could push it up floor. I thought Gordon

537
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: was expecting it back a little bit and nope, Coles like, no,

538
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 2: I got this one and to get it to drop

539
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 2: and great celebrations too and stuff like that. So hell

540
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 2: of a shot. I predicted last night on Twitter that

541
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 2: we were going to get one buzzer beating game winner.

542
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 2: I didn't think it would be this game, I'll be

543
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,719
Speaker 2: honest with that, but huge shot. Anything to add there

544
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 2: a TK.

545
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: Somebody tweeted me last night and said that the Magic's

546
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 1: numbers looked like macaroni and cheese noodles. That's all I

547
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: really have to add. Incredible shots by Cole Anthony. But

548
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,479
Speaker 1: the Timberwolve just completely fell apart. It was a ten

549
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 1: point game with like two minutes left, and it just

550
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: seemed like if you set a single screen offensively the

551
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: magic we're going to be getting a good shot, like

552
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: a pick and roll at the top. Once you come

553
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: around the pick and the roll, there's nobody there. There's

554
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: just no defense at all for the timber Wolves. And

555
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: that has been the case for a few seasons now.

556
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: But it's likely always says practice your free throw, kids,

557
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 1: gotta knock them down.

558
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 2: Jared, Jared, Jared, and both of them, right, just had

559
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: to get one of them. Yeah, they were done too,

560
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 2: I mean at least and then it's a tie game. Yeah, cool,

561
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 2: hits that three, But yeah, tough loss of the Wolf's,

562
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 2: tough season for Minnesota.

563
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: Let's move on.

564
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 2: Trey Young thirty eight points, John Collins thirty one As

565
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 2: the Hawks rally cuck to beat the Pistons in overtime.

566
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 2: This was another overtime game. Try a big takeaway. All

567
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 2: that stuff is true. Clinton Cabella grabbed a whole bunch

568
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 2: of boards, so you know we had to do it

569
00:24:48,080 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 2: to him. Quint Cappella grabbed twenty six rebounds. That's a

570
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 2: lot of roast beef. Arby's sees what we're doing, loving roast.

571
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 3: Beef, no dunks.

572
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: We love roast beef, which is rebounds.

573
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, maybe six rebounds. Arby's recognizing that roast beef

574
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 2: equal rebounds. Now, I love to see it.

575
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 1: Just a bunch of roast beef aficionados, But I gotta

576
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: say I gotta say it. This was a dubious beef.

577
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: This was some whole hooked beef. So many of Capella's

578
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,919
Speaker 1: rebounds were tips, so many of his rebounds came on

579
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: his own misses. I counted I feel like Lee ellis

580
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: here watching every assist for the very solid play. I

581
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: watched every rebound. I count seventeen a real rebound.

582
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: Wow.

583
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: That being said, if this was Dennis Robin, Dennis Robin

584
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 1: would have averaged thirty rebounds a game if every tip

585
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: counted as rebound. But we are grateful for each and

586
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: every big beef here. I mean, where else are you

587
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: gonna see Mason Plumley shoot a hook shot, a skyhook,

588
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: giving Clint Cappella the easy rebound. As for the rest

589
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 1: of the stuff that happened on the court, the Hawks

590
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: were down seventeen in the fourth. It was not looking

591
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: good for Atlanta, but Trey Young and John Collins and

592
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: Kevin Herder were all great during the fourth quarter that

593
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 1: just kind of taking over. Trey was living in the

594
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: lane and he was finding guys on the outside, and

595
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: there were just some brutal, brutal defensive breakdowns for the

596
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: Piston So the Hawks probably would have been getting smashed,

597
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: been dragged through the mud today if they would have

598
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: lost this one to the Pistons the way it looked

599
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: like they were gonna They did a nice job to

600
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: get that beef and to get that comeback victory.

601
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 2: Absolutely, this would have been a brutal loss for the

602
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 2: Hawks if they went on to lose, let's say by twenty.

603
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 2: Big big block by John Collins too to force overtime.

604
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 2: I mean, Jeremy Grant's he's going to hit that bucket

605
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 2: like that's going to be a layup that last second

606
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 2: drive there at the end of regulation, and Colin's just nope, uhh,

607
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 2: and no foul called on the play and then they

608
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 2: went it in overtime. Yeah, huge victory, quick trivially Capella

609
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 2: Atlanta's first game with at least twenty five points and

610
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,639
Speaker 2: twenty five boards since who for the Hawks.

611
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 4: I'm not a.

612
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 2: Little tool. Horford would never eat that much beef.

613
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 4: No, I mean Moses Malone obviously did play for the Hawks,

614
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 4: but he was at the end of his career.

615
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 2: Tree Rollins, Paul Millsap, No, no, no, you gotta go.

616
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 2: Uh it's pretty amazing. Actually he did it in nineteen

617
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 2: ninety nine. I mean, it's not amazing the player to

618
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 2: have done it. I guess maybe as he went on

619
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 2: he got a little older, I guess to put up

620
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 2: these numbers. It was a little impressive.

621
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 4: Kevin Willis, No, he's.

622
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 2: Not that old.

623
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,120
Speaker 1: U Tumbo now he was there.

624
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 2: Whoa it was Umbo December fourteenth, nineteen ninety nine, twenty

625
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 2: seven and twenty nine from Combo against the Minnesota Timberwolves

626
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 2: when he was on the Hawks. Yeah. Crazy. The last

627
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 2: player I think to do it in the NBA is

628
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 2: a twenty five and twenty five is Karl Anthony Towns,

629
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 2: who did it in twenty nineteen.

630
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 3: So there you go.

631
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hawk's got a much needed victory because, yeah, if

632
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,400
Speaker 2: you lose to the Pistons, worst team in the league,

633
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 2: or at least one of the worst teams in the league,

634
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,360
Speaker 2: and after all we'd been talking about Atlanta, like what's

635
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: going on with Collins, what's going on with Trey I mean,

636
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 2: especially after the first half from Trey Young. I he

637
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 2: had like six points or something. He turned it on

638
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 2: in this game. Lloyd Pierce was basically like, we won

639
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 2: this game because Trey Young turned back into Trey Young.

640
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 4: He was aggressive. Yeah, he was super aggressive. Yeah, So

641
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 4: I wonder way that's been Maybe he just needed to

642
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 4: get over it and maybe's back because he and John

643
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 4: Collins had a couple of nos connections too, So absolutely.

644
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 2: And Trey Young set up Capella for the Jam to

645
00:28:58,480 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 2: you know, tie the game at one of six at

646
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: the ender regulation there. So that was big too. Yeah,

647
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 2: good game final one here. I just want to slip

648
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 2: this in because we haven't talked about them a lot.

649
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 2: Clippers beat the Kings one fifteen ninety six for season

650
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: high fifth straight victory. Kawhi had thirty two it's six steals,

651
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 2: Paul George nineteen career high twelve assists titus career high

652
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 2: for Paul George. But again, I just want to get

653
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 2: this in here, Cuz correct me if I'm wrong. I

654
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: haven't talked a lot of Clippers, and that's probably a

655
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 2: good thing. I know. Task talked about them on What

656
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 2: you Need to Know this morning, how the Clippers there

657
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: might be well, they might be boring, and that's good.

658
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: They broke this game open with thirty four points in

659
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 2: the third quarter. They had like these just they go

660
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: on these runs, like a nine er run, then a

661
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 2: thirteen oher run, and they are killing third quarters like

662
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 2: they are just coming out at halftime, just putting the

663
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 2: hammer down like they're Shane Hill. And it's scoring opponents

664
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 2: by combined fifty six points over their last five third quarters.

665
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 2: And believe it or not, the Clips have the number

666
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 2: one offense in the legally but like something like twentieth

667
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 2: ranked defense. So I think you're seeing though they are

668
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 2: playing with like a little more on the offense side

669
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: of the ball, like a little more freedom, a little

670
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,479
Speaker 2: more joy under TAILU then maybe what was going on

671
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 2: under Doc. But Kawi after the game said, quote, happy

672
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 2: with the wins we're getting, but we're not satisfied, which

673
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 2: is obviously the right attitude to have. And that's why

674
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 2: I don't think we're gonna talk about the Clippers much

675
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 2: during the regular season. Because we all know they're a

676
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: great team. It's just you know, obviously, come playoff time,

677
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 2: can you keep leads when you're up fifteen twenty on

678
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 2: teams like the Nuggets and not melt down. But they're

679
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 2: they're they're rolling right now.

680
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 4: Man, wasn't one of the big things when the Raptors

681
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 4: won the championship the third quarter Rappers, that was Yeah,

682
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 4: that sounds right to me. Yeah, yeah, So you know,

683
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 4: Surge is there now, Kauhi is they're having a great season,

684
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 4: so maybe they're trying to get that back. Maybe Tyler's like,

685
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 4: listen the third quarters the championship quarter there and perform.

686
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 4: But for the Kings, look good signs for them. They

687
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 4: kept the opponent under one hundred and twenty points.

688
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 2: That was their goal. Literally, Luke Walton said that before

689
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 2: the game, our goal is to keep the other team

690
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 2: under one hundred and twenty points. Check. They just forgot

691
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: to score.

692
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 4: You think that's it. In the locker and they're like,

693
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 4: we got one, guys, we gotta win.

694
00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 2: We're gonna be get it.

695
00:30:58,840 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: That's a weird who cares, that's.

696
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,959
Speaker 2: A that's a mini victory for the Kings right now.

697
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 2: That's how bad their season's been. But yeah, Clippers, they're

698
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 2: they're rolling right now quietly, but they've got a couple

699
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,120
Speaker 2: of big games coming up, so they'll be a little

700
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 2: more eyeballs on them, I think, and whether they can

701
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 2: win those big ones on national television and maybe shut

702
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 2: some of the dotors up out there. All right, let's

703
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 2: get to a little Is this news? Just a couple here,

704
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: guys can throw a headline at you. You can tell

705
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: me whether or not it's news. First one, NBA postpones

706
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 2: sixth consecutive game for the Washington Wizards league. Is this news?

707
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 4: Yes? It is, because apparently they wanted to go ahead

708
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 4: with this game because the Wizard did have enough players,

709
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 4: but Bradley Beal, who's the players rep for the Wizards,

710
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 4: was like, we need some practice time first here because

711
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 4: we haven't played for so long that the chances of

712
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 4: somebody injuring themselves by not being ready enough is increased.

713
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 4: So they talked with Michelle Roberts, the NBA Players Association Rep, about, Listen,

714
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 4: we need to postpone this game. We need to get

715
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 4: some practice time first, because even though we have enough

716
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 4: players for the game, we've got to get guys, just

717
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 4: a little bit back into their flows. Haven't been even

718
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 4: able to practice until yesterday. I believe they have played

719
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 4: since January eleven. Yeah, so, and that's a ten day

720
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 4: break in between games. But just even that practice and

721
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 4: just being around each other so and it worked.

722
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: It worked.

723
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 4: So the game has been postponed again. Now the problem

724
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 4: for the Wizards is they're going to have to make

725
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 4: up all these games that they've missed playing at some point,

726
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 4: so their schedule could get just crazy. They could be

727
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 4: facing back to back to backs at some point. I'm

728
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 4: not sure exactly how the NBA is going to handle it,

729
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 4: but this is not the end of the world by

730
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 4: any means, but certainly this is becoming a big problem,

731
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 4: and the NBA wants, obviously the Wizards to be out

732
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 4: there to being able to make up these games as

733
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 4: quickly as possible. But I think Bradley Beal is very

734
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 4: much within his rights, and he's taken the right approach

735
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 4: by saying, we don't want to risk injury to any

736
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 4: players just to try to catch up these games. We've

737
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 4: got to be at least the lad to get prepared

738
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 4: and ready. So I think that's a rough uprece I

739
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 4: think the league sort of acknowledge that, so the right

740
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 4: decision has been made, even though this schedule is going

741
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 4: to get crazy at some point.

742
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 2: Tim Reynolds, I saw a tweet. If the Wizards play

743
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 2: all seventy two games, that's a big if. If they

744
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 2: even get to seventy two. But if they do and

745
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 2: the NBA doesn't schedule any makeups over that bye week,

746
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 2: Washington will have to play forty one times in sixty

747
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 2: seven days during the second half of the season because

748
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 2: they are missing some mad games here, Trey, but what

749
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: did you think about this? Likely said they had eight

750
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 2: available players. I mean, you know, by the rules they

751
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 2: were going to have to play this game. But they said, no,

752
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 2: we haven't practiced. Our conditioning is is crap, Like someone

753
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 2: could get hurt here because of this lengthy pause, and

754
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 2: the NBA agreed with them at least for this one.

755
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: I think JG nailed it in the stream. Team delays

756
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,719
Speaker 1: lead to less practice, lead to more injury. But delays

757
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 1: are necessary because of the COVID protocols. It's a vicious cycle.

758
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,959
Speaker 1: And that's exactly right. You're mentioning skeets that they might

759
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: not get to seventy two games and I would not

760
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 1: be surprised if that's the case. At the end of

761
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 1: the season, we see differing numbers in how many games

762
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 1: these teams have played, because it's likely that this sort

763
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: of shutdown will happen to another team at some point

764
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: during the season. And if you're having to take two

765
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: weeks off from playing games that matter, it's gonna be

766
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: tough to make them all back unless you're willing to

767
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,720
Speaker 1: be playing every two out of every three nights, basically

768
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: like you're saying forty out of sixty nights or whatever

769
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 1: it is. But it's going to be tough to make

770
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: up all these games. But it's also tough to take

771
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 1: two weeks off of basketball, come back and play competitive

772
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: games when you're trying to get into the playoff picture.

773
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: So it's tough. It's tough for the Wizards. I mean,

774
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: you guys had forgotten that Bradley Beal scored sixty points

775
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: the season. It's been so long that they played. I mean,

776
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: it's easy to forget the Wizards or even an NBA

777
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: team right now. Hopefully they get back, Hopefully people stay healthy,

778
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 1: both from a COVID standpoint and from a soft tissue

779
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: injury standpoint. It's the practice time helps. It was necessary,

780
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: but it puts the Wizards even further behind the eight ball.

781
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 2: The Wizards haven't played in so long that I forgot.

782
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 2: Fred Katz was a man, you're baby.

783
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 4: You're you're a big dog guy these days. Yet listen,

784
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 4: I remember Bale had sixty because last night when I

785
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 4: was talking to the Hammer Shane Hill, his career high

786
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 4: was sixty one in a game, and so I asked him,

787
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 4: would you rather score sixty in a game and lose

788
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 4: or zero in a victory? And he was like, you

789
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 4: know that a great question. He was like, when you're young,

790
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,719
Speaker 4: I think you take the sixty points. I think you'll

791
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 4: take that. You want to go out there and light

792
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 4: it up. But I said, yeah, I think come playoff time, though,

793
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 4: you'd be happy to exchange that zero for a victory.

794
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 2: And he agreed.

795
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 4: But you know, people love getting buckets.

796
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 2: People love it too. I do a question with this

797
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 2: whole thing, what would the league do if this weren't

798
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 2: the Wizards and it was the Lakers. I think I'm

799
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:51,919
Speaker 2: just fascinated by it.

800
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 4: What they shut down?

801
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: You mean, yeah, like I just wonder I have no like,

802
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: who knows, maybe it'd be the exact same, and it

803
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: is what it is. But you know, does it matter

804
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 2: that it's actually, let's be honest, the Washington Wizards not

805
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 2: a great team out of the gate here, you know,

806
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 2: not one of the you know, the mark marquee teams

807
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,919
Speaker 2: in this league by any means, I don't know. And look,

808
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: Brooks anticipates that the Wizards, six of the Wizards out

809
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 2: right now for health and safety protocols, are not are

810
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 2: likely not gonna be able to rejoin them on this

811
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 2: road trip they're about to go on, like San Antonio,

812
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 2: Houston and New Orleans. They have this little road trip

813
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 2: coming up. So they're still gonna be like mad short

814
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,879
Speaker 2: guys here. But I get what bial saying. At least

815
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 2: will maybe be conditioned to avoid injury hopefully, I mean

816
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 2: maybe not if they're playing like forty plus minutes in

817
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 2: some of these games or something like that, and somebody,

818
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 2: you know, this would be the worst case scenario for

819
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 2: the league. If Bradley Beal, let's say, a guy who's

820
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 2: obviously come up in tons of trade rumors, is their

821
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 2: star players, an All Star All NBA type of guy.

822
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: If because of all this this break him not being

823
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 2: conditioned you know something heaven't forbid, Like he tweaks, this

824
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 2: would be that would be the worst. That would be

825
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 2: the worst. So at least they gave him a little

826
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 2: more conditioning time. But gonna be tough to get the

827
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 2: Wizards games in. I'm with you, Trey. I don't think

828
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,399
Speaker 2: all these teams are going to have the same It's

829
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,399
Speaker 2: gonna come down to percentage points and stuff like that

830
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,280
Speaker 2: at the end of the year. All right, Our second

831
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 2: headline here sort of you know, has to do with

832
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 2: the first one NBA to enforce rules forbidding hugs and

833
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 2: handshakes with mid court security. Trey, is this news?

834
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: Very strange news, but it's news. Would Kevin Love have

835
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,400
Speaker 1: been in violation for having people on his back? Is

836
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,479
Speaker 1: a piggyback ride the same as a hug? Who knows

837
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,800
Speaker 1: it seems ridiculous. It seems like it's all about optics.

838
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 1: But we've had a Wizard's team that hasn't been able

839
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: to play basketball for two weeks. So anything that is

840
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 1: going to help keep people safe and keep games happening,

841
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: I'm for it. Like, I don't know exactly how you're

842
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: gonna legislate it. I don't know what these security officers

843
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,359
Speaker 1: are going to be doing on the side. Do they

844
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 1: have a whistle that they can blow an infraction if

845
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: there's a hug going down? Who knows. As long as

846
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 1: it helps, then I'm for it.

847
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 2: What do you think, Lee, is this just optics? I mean,

848
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,960
Speaker 2: did they even enforce this last night? For crying out

849
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 2: loud like of opponents, you know, sort of getting together

850
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 2: dabbing each other up? I thought I saw Sexton, you know,

851
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 2: you know, talking to nets players like in close proximity

852
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 2: and handsheeking or hugging or whatever. Did I not? Did

853
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 2: I make that up?

854
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 4: Well? The league should send around a videotape of every

855
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 4: time Kevin Garnett got into a fight in the NBA,

856
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 4: because remember what he would do. He would just go

857
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 4: like that, right, And that's what the players should have

858
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 4: to remember to do. Every time you score a basket.

859
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 4: Pretend you're in a fight, so you're like, no, no

860
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,359
Speaker 4: high fives, no hugs, I don't want any of that stuff,

861
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 4: and then you run back down the court and then

862
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 4: they won't interact with each other. I think that's it.

863
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 4: But no, to me, it's like, what's the point of

864
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 4: enforcing that?

865
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 2: Though?

866
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 4: Once you're out on the court and there's no masks anyway.

867
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 2: Exactly, because we're talking about this is supposed to be

868
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,240
Speaker 2: like really pre and post scheme, like hey, don't interact

869
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 2: with each other. Yeah, and then they go play fortyen

870
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 2: minutes of basketball exactly.

871
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 4: And when guys are on the bench after they get

872
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,879
Speaker 4: subbed out, they're supposed to wear a mask then, but yeah,

873
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 4: again you're taking that off when you go back out

874
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 4: on the court. And it's kind of like what George

875
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 4: Hill was saying, like, I mean, if you're expected to

876
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 4: go out and sweat and you know, bang bodies with

877
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 4: these guys, but then you're not allowed to really interact

878
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 4: with each other at all, and in the hotels or anything,

879
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 4: what's the point, you know, Like it's just it seems

880
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 4: a little bit. I understand they're trying to send the

881
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 4: message like we want to limit this as much as possible, absolutely,

882
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 4: but there is a certain point where in the game,

883
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 4: in the emotion of the game, people touch each other

884
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 4: and people get in each other's face, and it's very

885
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 4: hard to stop that. When you hit a game winning

886
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 4: shot or a big shot, your teammates want to come

887
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 4: and celebrate and share that moment.

888
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 3: With you.

889
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,719
Speaker 4: It's very hard to just be like, guys, stay away,

890
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,879
Speaker 4: stay away. So I'm not sure. I'm not sure how

891
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 4: effective it's going to be by trying to enforce it

892
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 4: and having people on the sideline saying stay away from

893
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 4: each other.

894
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 3: Guys.

895
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, the security out there, I saw Dan Feldman of

896
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 2: NBC Sports, Right, if the NBA is sort of like

897
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 2: hell bent on stricter enforcement for this type of stuff,

898
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,760
Speaker 2: then it maybe is better achieved, like by reviewing video

899
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 2: and issuing warnings and sort of like maybe finding violators,

900
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 2: like if they really want to go to that extreme,

901
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 2: not this idea of like I don't know, team security

902
00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:58,919
Speaker 2: just coming out to half court and like what they're

903
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 2: supposed to like make a line to break up the

904
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 2: two teams from you know, seeing each other and dapping

905
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 2: each other up. Like that's not going to do it

906
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 2: in my opinion, So maybe there's something there. Maybe they

907
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 2: just won't and maybe it is just you know, and

908
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,319
Speaker 2: that's fine, like some sort of optics thing. But I

909
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 2: sort of agree with George a little bit, like if like,

910
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 2: if you're going to this extreme, then why are we

911
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 2: even playing? Like like that's that's there's some truth to

912
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 2: that but anyway, inspired by this headline, I thought I

913
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:26,880
Speaker 2: hit you guys with a fun little top five.

914
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: Tom By Top five, Top five, tom By.

915
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 2: Top five top So a little top five fun. The

916
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 2: NBA placing team security guards on the court before and

917
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 2: after games to enforce the league's COVID nineteen health and

918
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 2: safety protocols. The idea is that security will help prohibit

919
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,400
Speaker 2: you know, DAPs and handshakes and hugs amongst the players.

920
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 2: But guys, the NBA team security, they already do enough.

921
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 2: They do enough work. We need some new enforcers in

922
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 2: the NBA. So this is my top five list of

923
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 2: people to lead the NBA's new no hugs security detail. Okay,

924
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 2: at number five, we'll go through quickly here Charles Oakley,

Speaker 2: former power forward. Yeah, no business, oak. If oak tells

928
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,919
Speaker 2: fist throne, all right. So number five, number four, mall

929
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:28,959
Speaker 2: cop Paul Blurt. Need some guys with some experience here,

930
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,720
Speaker 2: you know, forcing the rules. I've never watched Paul Blart,

931
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 2: but I just love saying Paul Blart, So let's put

932
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 2: him out there's.

933
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 1: Got to make I don't know, Kevin James, Paul Blart,

934
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,760
Speaker 1: same guy really looks like a hugger.

935
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 2: I will say, oh yeah, true, true, it might be

936
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,240
Speaker 2: tough for him, like you just gotta go, hey, Paul.

937
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: I get it.

938
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:49,879
Speaker 2: Let me get one hug.

939
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: And he's like, ah, for me too. It's tough for

940
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: me too, I want to hug.

941
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 2: Okay, So my third one, uh, you know, it's more

942
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 2: of a team, but it's the WWE Security Team. No,

943
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,439
Speaker 2: these guys have a lot of experience, but like, let's

944
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 2: just get a bunch of them in there. If they

945
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,479
Speaker 2: can keep Goldberg and brock Lesnar apart from each other,

946
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 2: I'm sure they can keep calling Sexton and Kyrie Irving

947
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 2: from hugging each other. Okay, again, they work as a

948
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 2: as a unit. These guys, now, they usually get beat

949
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 2: up at some point too, but we'll throw them out there.

950
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 2: Number two though, for enforcing these rules Steve Wilcos from

951
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 2: the Jerry Springer Show.

952
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: Wow, Oh you mean from Steve Wilco.

953
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 2: This guy was so popularly, got his own show out

954
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 2: of it, and then I think he went to work

955
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 2: for the Mary Povid Show. After the Jerry spring Yeah,

956
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,719
Speaker 2: So he's made a career out of being, you know,

957
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 2: the guy to jump up on stage and and and

958
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,919
Speaker 2: keep this guy in the glasses back from this other

959
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,240
Speaker 2: guy because he slept with that girl, you know, stuff

960
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 2: like that. So I think Steve is Steve would happily

961
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 2: take this job. But you know, my number one on

962
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 2: this list, I'm thinking a little differently. We don't need muscle. Okay,

963
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 2: we need someone sweet Betty White. Hunt her out there,

964
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 2: just her ninety nine years old. If Betty White tells you, guys,

965
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,800
Speaker 2: you know you can't hug each other, you can't handshake,

966
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 2: I think you're gonna listen to this sweet, very funny woman.

967
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 2: So maybe this is you gotta we gotta pivot, We

968
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 2: gotta go with a different angle with this. We don't

969
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,479
Speaker 2: need muscle, we need Betty White out there. So that's

970
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 2: my top five list of people to leave the NBA's

971
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 2: new no hugs security detail. Who did I miss? Anyone?

972
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,439
Speaker 2: Come to mind? Guys that you would like to see

973
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,320
Speaker 2: out there, maybe to prevent all this you know, handshakes

974
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:35,760
Speaker 2: and hugs.

975
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 1: The security guard from Arrested Development who's always yelling no touching.

976
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're visiting I guess they go from judge Judy

977
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 4: as well. The co's his name?

978
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, I know his name is probably Steve.

979
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 2: If you run any of those type of shows, your

980
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:59,239
Speaker 2: name was Steve and you did security. Okay, well let

Speaker 4: A few people are saying about the wrinkley shirt, and

1028
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 4: it's true, it is wrinkly, but look at the look

1029
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 4: at the time of day it is there. You know,

1030
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 4: this is like I've been walking around in that for

1031
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 4: like hours, so it's.

1032
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: Not like a shirt that should be wrinkly.

1033
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, yeah, yeah, it's not like I just just

1034
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 4: turned up, but like, you know, ten in the morning,

1035
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 4: I said, quick, let's get the shirt off. This is

1036
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 4: like because it gets stink and hot in New York Exceptrember.

1037
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 2: So so why are you wearing a sweater under a

1038
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,000
Speaker 2: button shirt.

1039
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:54,360
Speaker 1: That's a lot of roast beef?

1040
00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,239
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1041
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 4: Oh my god, it's funny, isn't it, Like you just

1042
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 4: I was because when it is super hot, I do

1043
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 4: like a button up shirt over a T shirt, you know,

1044
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 4: because it does get a bit airy. But I don't

1045
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,320
Speaker 4: know why, I just basically just went the one button.

1046
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 4: I'm like, that's that's crazy even for me. I'm like,

1047
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 4: you knew.

1048
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 2: In twenty years time, I'm going to need this photo

1051
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 4: do I want to share this one or not? And

1052
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,800
Speaker 4: I'm like, I sort of have this. I sort of

1053
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 4: have to because it's you know, we talked about it

1054
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 4: and it's at the US Open there. But then I'm

00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 2: fantastic work, okay, pick them. Results not good for the

00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 2: boys here. We all took the Raptors to win by

1062
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 2: five or more. Oh we jinxed a heart of that.

1063
00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 2: Raptors got embarrassed. We even talk about it heat quality

1064
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 2: win front to back. Basically just played like garbage og

1065
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 2: the only Raptor actually doing anything out there last night.

1066
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 2: So that's a loss for everybody. We got three guys

1067
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 2: that are eight and eleven. We got task Tray and

1068

00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,360
Speaker 2: by the Pelicans and Jazz again, and we also have

1075
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,440
Speaker 2: go with that Lakers Bucks game. Lakers favored by one

1076
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,040
Speaker 2: and a half on the road in Milwaukee, Trey, let

1077
00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:37,680
Speaker 2: get us started. Where are you going with this one?

1078
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're basically just picking a winner here with the

1079
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: tiny little line, And I'm gonna go with the Lakers

1080
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,320
Speaker 1: because for the first time this season against the Warriors

1081
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 1: and their last game, they tried the rope of dope

1082
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,320
Speaker 1: and it didn't work. So I'm imagining in a Marquee

1083
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: game like this, they come out banging out of the gate.

1084
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,920
Speaker 2: Gimme La, here you go a league You know, the

1085
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 2: Bucks just lost too, right, agains that NETS game they

1086
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 2: had recently. Where do you go? Do you go? Lakers

1087
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 2: in Milwaukee?

1088
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:03,800
Speaker 4: Shit, it's a tough one. I think I'm gonna go

1089
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 4: with the Bucks just I think they're at harm I

1090
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 4: think again, it is it's just basically who's gonna win

1091
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 4: by a field goal here? So I'll take Milwaukee, but

1092
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 4: you should be a pretty tight one. Mm.

1093
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm torn I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with

1094
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 2: the Lakers tonight. You know, Lebron always likes something to

1095
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 2: you know, get them going right. Got to find a

1096
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 2: you know, inspiration in something. What's inspiration? That's not the

1097
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 2: word I'm looking for. What's the word. I'm looking for?

1098
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:30,760
Speaker 1: Motivation?

1099
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,760
Speaker 2: Motivation? Thank you? And maybe it's like you know, Okay,

1100
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:36,720
Speaker 2: the Bucks are one of the better teams in the league.

1101
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 2: We just came off a loss. Am I going to

1102
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 2: go try and get another MVP? Well, a big performance

1103
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 2: versus gianness would help that, right, you know, if you

1104
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,640
Speaker 2: put up monster numbers. So I will go with the Lakers.

1105
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:47,520
Speaker 2: This is a tough one. We got two of us

1106
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 2: going Lakers. We've got one of us going Milwaukee. Let's

1107
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 2: find out who tast is taking.

1108
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: I'm taking the Bucks.

1109
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 5: I think the Lakers are in a bit of a

1110
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 5: chill mode right now, and considering they're seven and oh

1111
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,360
Speaker 5: on the road. But they're going to Milwaukee where the

1112
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 5: Bucks are so good at home. That's a recipe for

1113
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:04,719
Speaker 5: a loss. Give me Milwaukee, Okay, So there you go.

1114
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 2: So it was Trey and I right with the Lakers,
