12
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 1: who made fools of us all this season. Who did

13
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: we get wrong when it came to predicting what they

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: would do? Maybe good, maybe bad. We'll get into that,

15
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: but some games last night. I want to start with

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: Luca scoring forty two as the Lakers blew out the

17
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: Cavaliers one twenty seven one thirteen, took control in the

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: second quarter. The Lakers did never look back. Huge third

19
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: quarter pushed the lead to twenty and they won their

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: fourth straight thirteenth in their last fourteen games, giving them

21
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: fifty wins tasks, matching last season's total. Already here, it was.

22
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: A disappointing game. I thought I tuned in for this,

23
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 2: watching two teams I have some hopes for in the playoffs. Sure,

24
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: Cavs no resistance at all? Right to start, I thought, yes,

25
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 2: Luca went off. I thought his first opportunity was like

26
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 2: a practice shot. He was on the baseline. Jared Allen

27
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 2: didn't even go up to him, just off one leg.

28
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: Oh you're leaving me that open? Yeah. Sure, Austin Reeves

29
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: missed an opportunity, he got an offensive rebound with James

30
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: Harden didn't even want to box him out. I just

31
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 2: didn't think that they were providing any sort of resistance

32
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: at all. I mean, on the other end, he give

33
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: Jared Allen was doing his thing. I wondered if Evan

34
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: Mobley was even playing. Did he set a pick in

35
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: this game? I mean, don't I don't think he was

36
00:01:55,160 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 2: quiet game. Yeah, the big man working together thing I

37
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 2: thought could work with Evan Mobley up top, dropping it

38
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: to Jared Allen in opportunities when he was on the baseline.

39
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: You know, with some of those. It did occur in

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 2: the last few games, but in this one, Mobile wasn't

41
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 2: even there. Jared Allen was doing his thing. I mean,

42
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: he was taking Deandreyton from the three point line all

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: the way to the box. But I just didn't think

44
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: that this was anything to be all excited about it.

45
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: I mean, James Harden was whispering to Luca for like

46
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 2: a full minute during the game, covering his mouth. What

47
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 2: up with that? I know I'm doing some body language

48
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 2: reading there, but that was just disappointing. Wouldn't be surprising

49
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: to see James Harden not play all that well in

50
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: the postseason. I know there's just one game, but this

51
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 2: is it wasn't all that fun. While on the other side,

52
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: the Lakers without Marcus Smart, those guys, the Glue guys,

53
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: whether it's la Ravia or Ayton or Ruey or whoever,

54
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: they were doing their thing in this game.

55
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: Luca's a bad matchup for everybody, but especially for the Calves.

56
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 3: They just don't have anybody who has a chance against

57
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 3: the Max Strus got the main defensive assignment and he's

58
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 3: just not good enough.

59
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 4: To stick with Luca.

60
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 3: I think, like literally the best guy they could a

61
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 3: throw out last night was Naekwon Tomlin and that guy

62
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 3: is just new to the NBA. So I thought that's

63
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 3: bad to start off with Lucas putting up thirty three

64
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 3: A games so he scores on everybody.

65
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 4: But also a pretty bad scheme. I thought.

66
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 3: By the calves, they're in deep drop the entire time,

67
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 3: and that just gives Lucas so many options.

68
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 4: How many walk in threes did he have?

69
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 3: You would see, especially when Thomas Bryant was in the

70
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 3: dude was in the lane on a screen and roll,

71
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: so Luca just gets the guy off and it's a

72
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: wide open jumper. But if it wasn't Bryant, you know,

73
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 3: sometimes Alan would be a little bit higher. But Lucas

74
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 3: so good at it. He can drive for the float,

75
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 3: or he can drive to the rim. He can get

76
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: into an iso and just shoot it over the top

77
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 3: of a guy. He can get nale oop, which he

78
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 3: got a ton of. He can kick to the corner

79
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 3: like forty two points twelve assists. He was a little sweaty,

80
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: but not that sweaty.

81
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: Uh.

82
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: And on the other end, I thought Jared Allen, he

83
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 3: did have a good game, but I thought that was

84
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: completely by design.

85
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: From the Lakers.

86
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 3: La Ravia was right next to Donovan Mitchell the entire night,

87
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 3: wouldn't let him really get involved in any plays.

88
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 4: Same thing with James Harden.

89
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: They defended him pretty well well, So Jared Allen got

90
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 3: a lot of one on one opportunities and the guy

91
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 3: can score. So he went at eight and he had

92
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: a lot of great takes. He was busy on the

93
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 3: offensive glass as well. But I think that was kind

94
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 3: of a JJ reddick, like, if Jared Allen can beat us,

95
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 3: go ahead, Jared Allen couldn't do it, You're hoping for

96
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 3: Mitchell and Hardin to take you over the top there.

97
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 3: So I thought, good coaching coaching win for JJ last

98
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 3: night over Kenny Atkinson.

99
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 4: And Luca is just a special player and he's awesome

100
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 4: right now.

101
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, continued his incredible streak here, forty two points for

102
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: Luca last night, twelve as sists, five boards. I thought

103
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 1: this game was probably catnip for lucas stans who think

104
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: he is deserving of the MVP. Just an incredible March

105
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: that he capped off here. He scored over six hundred

106
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: points in the month of March, and just to put

107
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: that in perspective, Anthony Davis scored five hundred and eighty

108
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: seven total points for the Dallas Mavericks during his tenure there.

109
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: So Luca in one month, bad trade, it turns out eight.

110
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: And though I want to go back to him because

111
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: you said Jared Allen did have a good game, I

112
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: thought Eaton like sort of neutralized what Alan was doing.

113
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: And even mobily Ayton was aggressive. He was a bit

114
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: of a defensive force at times eighteen and nine. And

115
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: one of my favorite small plays from this game, third quarter,

116
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: Eaton comes up. He sets the slick gor toot screen right,

117
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: So that's the one where you're gonna flip the side

118
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: of the ball screen where you're gonna set the pick.

119
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: At the last second, it opened up the driving lane

120
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 1: for Luca, and as Eaten' rolled he sort of like

121
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: big body just got in the way, created more space

122
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: for Luca. He sort of flipped it in with his

123
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: right hand on the left side of the rim. But

124
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: he acknowledged Aton right away. He was like, that's a

125
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: hell of a play. Good pick, way to roll, And

126
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 1: I just like that, And so I thought he had

127
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: a game. He said, Jake Laravia, what five for five?

128
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: Hit a couple of threes and then really continuing his

129
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: strong playoff the bench six for eight. So those guys

130
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: chipping in and Lebron just got to have some of

131
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: the highlight plays exactly right. He had the chase down

132
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: block five seconds into the game. That's a new record

133
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: for him getting that, And then he had the big

134
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: alley oop which I think was created by an Ayton

135
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: deflection too. He was active on that end, like I said,

136
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: and that was the one where Austin Reeves I guess

137
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: it was just chuck it up just for.

138
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 2: Dunk.

139
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like that, this is better.

140
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, this wasler.

141
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 3: It feels like eighty percent of Lebron's baskets since coming

142
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 3: back from injury have been dunks. Like the guy's just

143
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 3: run wild a terror on the fast break. You're right,

144
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 3: eight and has been really good. It took him and

145
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 3: Luca a lot of time to develop chemistry. Early in

146
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 3: the season, Austin Reeves and eight and were connecting on

147
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 3: these alley oops and just understood how to play in

148
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 3: the pick and roll. But Ayton has figured out like

149
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 3: the cadences of the way Luca likes to attack, because

150
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 3: it's not just straight downhill like Reeves gets to does

151
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 3: his business right away, just goes straight to it. But

152
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 3: Lucas like, I'll put my guy in jail, I'll bob

153
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 3: and weave, I'll do all this kind of stuff, and

154
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 3: I'll wait till the last second, till there's a little

155
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 3: bit of help drop it over the top.

156
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 4: Shout out to Ayton.

157
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: He bought in.

158
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: Literally he gave the interview where or like the profiles

159
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 3: out on him where he's like, I'm not Clint Capella.

160
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 3: And from that moment on, he has been clin and

161
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 3: it's been great for the Lakers. Also, really going to

162
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 3: the bench has helped out a lot. It makes more

163
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 3: sense for the team. He's killing second units. They're eighteen

164
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 3: and eight with him coming off the bench, I think

165
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 3: he loses track of what's supposed to be going on

166
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 3: a lot of the time, and that really shows when

167
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 3: you're starting and playing with the other guys. But when

168
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: you can go against the second unit, you can dominate,

169
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: and that's what he's been doing.

170
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought when Deandreton did talk about post moves

171
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,119
Speaker 2: it was about a month ago. I thought, Okay, maybe

172
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: we're going to get that bad part of DeAndre in season. Nope.

173
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 2: I still kicking it. This still looks like a Dallas

174
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: Mavericks team to some degree, with Luca as your guy

175
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,679
Speaker 2: and all your working parts in Aighton usually Marcus Smart,

176
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: but now he's out with an ankle injury. We'll see

177
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: when he comes back. But Larabia pitching in, Ruey pitching in,

178
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 2: Jackson Hayes pitching in and off the bench. They are

179
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 2: absolutely clicking. I thought a funny Luca game or Luca

180
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: moment was when he was guarding Jared Allen in the

181
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 2: post and he wanted to go one on one. La

182
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: Ravia ran over and while the play is happening, and

183
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: while Jared Allen was catching the ball, Lucas says to Laaraviia,

184
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: hey man, this is supposed to be just me guarding him.

185
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: And as that's happening as he's been playing, Jared Allen

186
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 2: just spins around and scores. But Luca continues to complain

187
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: until the rady, Hey dude, I can guard him one

188
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 2: on one, so he knows what he's doing. That's that's

189
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 2: the you know, the the downfalls of a guy who

190
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: will give you a forty forty five fifty is you know.

191
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: He's a little.

192
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 2: He just complains a little bit here and there, but

193
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 2: who cares. Uh, he scores enough and all is good.

194
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: I think. On the other side, though, we'll talk about

195
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 2: guys who disappointed and who fooled us. But Evan Mobley's

196
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 2: got to get some plays run for him. It's kind

197
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 2: of like we used to say about DeAndre and he's

198
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 2: got to get the ball in the post and always

199
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 2: got to get the ball.

200
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 3: Uh.

201
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: He just wasn't involved at all in this game. And again,

202
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 2: that big the big thing. If it's going to work

203
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: with Cleveland, it has to be mobilely involved and Alan

204
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: off the ball instead of just going to Alan all

205
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 2: the time. So that was that was poopy to start

206
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 2: the game. The whole the entire thing was poopy for

207
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 2: the Cavs.

208
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 3: What if Jared Allen's just better. Yeah, he's a better

209
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 3: passer than Mobley's.

210
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think.

211
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: He has like more reliable go to moves.

212
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 2: Uh huh. Well, if you're running, if you've got those

213
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 2: two guys on the floor, he just has to be involved.

214
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's the thing. I don't care if

215
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: Alan scores more. Yeah, Mobile has to touch the ball,

216
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 2: he has to set some picks and Mobile they can

217
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: they can be interchangeable with Alan on the on the

218
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 2: the baseline or whatever. I mean, Mobile just wasn't even there.

219
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: I don't.

220
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: I don't think you know that, or is that sort

221
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: of the coaching st like your star players. It's probably both. Right,

222
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: one's got to be he has to be more aggressive,

223
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,839
Speaker 1: more demanding, and also maybe you need to implement him more. Yeah,

224
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: but yeah, not a great performance from the cast. My

225
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,679
Speaker 1: final thought in the Lakers, did you look up Luca's

226
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: dunk score for his final buck out of the night.

227
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: I was just curious. I forgot to. He was very

228
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 1: happy though, to get that fast break dunk right at

229
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: the end, and you could see, you know, it was

230
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 1: all alone, games sort of over, and he's like, I'm

231
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: gonna dunk this. Okay, Well, so he goes up and

232
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: got the two hands slam.

233
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 4: He did not make the top five.

234
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not surprising. Yeah, it was probably one of

235
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: the lower dunk scores season, but hey still dunked it.

236
00:09:58,840 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: All right.

237
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: Let's move on to the Rockets winning over the Knicks.

238
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: Also a pretty dominant performance. Okay, found it.

239
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 4: He got a twenty three point four not as lowest

240
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 4: as the season.

241
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: Really, No, right in the middle right.

242
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 4: No, that's his lowest.

243
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I sorted by Luca and got some gars

244
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 3: is mixed.

245
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: Up with I mean, how many dunks does Luka Doncici

246
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,719
Speaker 1: even have this year? He's got four rated on the

247
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: dunk scale.

248
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you don't get a star rating for those.

249
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: Basically a star, you know, gets his points boosted at all. Nothing. Wow,

250
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 2: that's real. Yeah, that's real.

251
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: Back to the Rockets here, I guess similar in a

252
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: way that it was an ass kicking really sort of

253
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: from front to back. The Rockets never trailed in this game.

254
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: They led by double digits for most of it, and

255
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: you know that was after a monster first quarter. They

256
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: scored thirty seven, kept the Knicks to something like twenty one.

257
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: So they had a great lead and they kept it.

258
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 1: Durant scored twenty seven and it was just overall tasted

259
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: extremely efficient night. Rockets shot fifty four percent from the field,

260
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: really good from three, forty three percent from deep, and

261
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: they barely turned the ball over. And that's how you

262
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: get to this really impressive victory. And the Rockets, man

263
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: got everybody like scratching their heads. We sort of like

264
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: they look good parts of the season. Then they looked

265
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: like garbage and then you're like, I don't know, and

266
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: now they're like, you know, stringing together some quality wins

267
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 1: here as we get closer to the postseason.

268
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. The difference I think with their starting lineup is

269
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 2: they pulled Read Shepherd to get Tar Eason out there.

270
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 2: He didn't want Reach I assume Imaduka didn't want Reach

271
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 2: Epherd having to run after Jalen Brunson and get destroyed.

272
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 1: It was a matchup reason. And it sounds like Read

273
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 1: Shepherd will be back in the starting lineup tonight against

274
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: the Bucks.

275
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 2: And he finished the game. And that was a very

276
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 2: very very solid game from Reach Epperd getting involved defensively,

277
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 2: his hands involved multiple steals. So you saw that from

278
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 2: one side. And the Knicks, you know, off to that

279
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 2: slow start. Maybe they can come back. Well, these last

280
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 2: few games have been all sort of slow starts. You know.

281
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 2: They've averaged ninety seven points over the last three games.

282
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: That's too low for a great team. They had just

283
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 2: twenty two assists in this game. I thought the ball

284
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: wasn't zipping and the Rockets were doing a great job

285
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 2: of cutting off og or whoever. I mean. I think

286
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: they just did a really good job of cutting off

287
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: mckel bridges and stopping the passes. But I went to

288
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: the raw numbers. I didn't go as hard as dunk

289
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 2: score numbers, but I went to the passes numbers. They

290
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,200
Speaker 2: only had two fifty nine in this game, thirty below

291
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: their average. Like it wasn't zipping around and the Rockets again,

292
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 2: we're doing really good job of cutting off passing lanes

293
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 2: and all that. But this was the standings loss for

294
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 2: me because the Knicks had an opportunity to jump on

295
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,079
Speaker 2: those Boston Celtics jump up a little bit. With Boston

296
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: losing on Monday, they could have been just one and

297
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 2: a half games back Boston for the second seed. They

298
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: got the tiebreaker right now. They do play them one

299
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 2: more time on April ninth, another two and a half back,

300
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: and they ain't gonna catch them for a second. It

301
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 2: just seems unlikely, But Rockets kicked ass. Maybe it was

302
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: because it was legend night in Houston, and legends for

303
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: the Rockets were there. For the comments out there, they're

304
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 2: getting their new team back next season. It just feels

305
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: like the energy was good. There were just man, they

306
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 2: came back. I shouldn't say they were met. They came back,

307
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 2: Carl Look did, but yeah, not a great effort to

308
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: start in this game.

309
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if this is like, is it

310
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 3: more important to talk about the Rockets being great? I

311
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 3: thought they were awesome. I thought five assists on forty

312
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: two makes. That's the most assists they've had in a

313
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 3: game at all this season. This is the best offensive

314
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 3: game I've seen them play maybe the entire year. The

315
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 3: ball was really moving. I thought it was interesting that

316
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,079
Speaker 3: they were cooking so hard. That doesn't make any sense,

317
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 3: just like cooking hard.

318
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: I was going to go with save Jamie Oliver right now.

319
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 1: He's cooking so hard, chopping hard. Yeah, they were, And

320
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa Reed Shepherd's not out there.

321
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 3: I'm I'm noticing this Reed comes in really slow start

322
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 3: in the second quarter. And then Reid was completely cooking.

323
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 3: He was cooking hard as well. So yeah, this was

324
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 3: just great offense. I thought from the Rockets extra passes this,

325
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 3: you're open in the corner, but there's a guy stunting

326
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 3: at you. Guess what we're getting into the wing. He's

327
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 3: hitting the three. This was just great ball movement from

328
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,320
Speaker 3: the Rockets. The most cohesive they've looked easily since the

329
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 3: All Star break, I would say, and then on the

330
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 3: flip side, like New York was equally as bad. They've

331
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 3: lost three straight now. Their last good win was early

332
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 3: in March. Like they're squeaking by tanking teams. They haven't

333
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 3: beaten a team with a winning record since March sixth.

334
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: You're wondering are they going to have a starting lineup change,

335
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 3: because that's something that Mike Brown has hinted at in

336
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 3: the past, and they were down big early in this

337
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 3: one as well. That was a concern last season. Is

338
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 3: the starting lineup the correct mix of players? Like does

339
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 3: it make sense to have Josh Hart out there? Does

340
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 3: it make sense to have Michale Bridges out there? When

341
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: this guy does absolutely nothing games at a time. The

342
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: Knicks are looking as bad as they did after winning

343
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 3: the NBA Cup, like they went on their great win

344
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 3: streak here in the middle of March, and just the

345
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 3: exact same way. They're not giving an effort. They seem

346
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 3: like they're just ready for the playoffs to start. Every

347
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 3: postgame interview is like, Oh, we got to be better,

348
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: We got to get on track before the playoffs. You

349
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 3: got like five games left. It's a lot of not

350
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 3: a lot of t to be trying to figure out

351
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 3: how to actually fit together going forward. So I think

352
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,040
Speaker 3: I don't know, mate, I don't think panic is the

353
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: right word for the next. But you can't be feeling

354
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 3: too good going into the postseason playing this poorly.

355
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: I was thinking how great the Knicks or how much

356
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: they would fit right in in the Western Conference with

357
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: the way they play the ups and downs. There's sort

358
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: of been rockets like the Wolves, like where it's like,

359
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: catch them on the right week, look like obviously a finalist,

360
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: catch them on the wrong week, Like, what the hell's wrong.

361
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: With this team?

362
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: Are they just like, yeah, just going through the motions

363
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: right now. I've said that for a while now. With

364
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: the Next I think more than any team, they're like,

365
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: let's just start the playoffs already, Like we know where

366
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: we are, We like our squad, we have confidence we

367
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: can go far. And I do believe they'll ratchet it

368
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: up a little bit come postseason. But still not good.

369
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: It doesn't give you a confidence as you end the

370
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 1: season like this. This was an ass kicking. Also, Jad,

371
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: please throw up the Western Conference standing. I'm going to

372
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: it a little early, but the Rockets with that win

373
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: go to forty six and twenty nine. That ties them

374
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: with the Wolves in the fifth sixth spot, but that

375
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: series is tied one to one. They play on April tenth.

376
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 1: Those two teams. I'm talking Minnesota Houston. It's sort of

377
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: crazy that insane comeback by the Wolves last week that

378
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: you guys talked about here on the show. I mean

379
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: that could be the deciding factor. That was, like what

380
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: they came back from like fifteen down. Yeah, to squeak

381
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: that out and pull out that victory, and it could

382
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: come into play here. Otherwise, the Rockets have that tiebreaker

383
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: and could be the designing factor again between playing you know,

384
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: the Lakers or the Nuggets. So I just wanted to

385
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: make note of that.

386
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 3: But Rockets also have the easiest schedule remaining in the

387
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 3: Western Conference.

388
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: Was that good for a team like this, I'm not sure.

389
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 3: At least they're winning, you know, they beat the next

390
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 3: and they beat some bad teams as well, So just

391
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 3: got to stay locked in against the bad teams.

392
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 2: Got some standings fun here coming down to the wire. Yeah,

393
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: on the East side, as I said, the Knicks could

394
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: have made a huge game on Boston, but I wonder

395
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: would they rather be in the fourth seed, as the

396
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: Cavs only trailed them by one game. Would they rather

397
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 2: have that side of the bracket where they play four

398
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 2: or five and then the Pistons in the second round

399
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 2: rather than the three six and then the Celtics in

400
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,439
Speaker 2: the second round. At least they can say, hey, we

401
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 2: beat the Pistons last year. This is a young team,

402
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 2: has never been to a conference final. If they face

403
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: him in the second round, we can do this.

404
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: I mean, if they're legit, they shouldn't care at all

405
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: who they're playing.

406
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the Celtics are definitely the favorite in that

407
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 2: second round if they end up playing.

408
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: Them, home court advantage.

409
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Cavs ain't winning right now, so thanks for good.

410
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: They're solid and third at that this point.

411
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,639
Speaker 1: And my final note on the Rockets victory is we

412
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: talk a lot and we get excited about every Lebron

413
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: James dunk. Kevin Durant had a pretty big dunk for

414
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 1: Katie last night. That the baseline one we took off

415
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: pretty far. Please check the dunk score. We have to

416
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: check the dunk score on every dunk. I'm just kidding.

417
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: It was a big dunk. I'm seventy five is too

418
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't on anybody's way too high, way

419
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: too high? Is it low? Sixties?

420
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 2: Oh? I thought.

421
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: Over eighty is good.

422
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 2: I thought I thought it was over one hundred.

423
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: But I think you might be thought he took off

424
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: for far uh sixties.

425
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 3: He's got a lot more dunks than Luca donc actually

426
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 3: contested forty seven.

427
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: Geez, that's it. Yeah, man can't figure out dunk score.

428
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: No one knows figure it out. Yeah, we're the only

429
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: one that cares. Okay, let's talk about another Western Conference matchup.

430
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: Drew Holiday scoring thirty Ovdia gett into the line a lot.

431
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: He scored twenty eight. Filled up the box score. Blazers

432
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: beat the Clippers. This is a big game because of

433
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 1: where they are in the play in standing. So the

434
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: Blazers are thirty nine and thirty eight. They're within a

435
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 1: half game here for the Clippers for the eighth place,

436
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: and you know a potential part of the play in

437
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: bracket where you get two chances to get into this thing.

438
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: But your takeaway from the Blazers could win here.

439
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 3: The Blazers treated this like it was one of the

440
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 3: most important games they had to play the entire season,

441
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 3: and you could tell they had eighteen offensive rebounds. Only

442
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 3: two of those went to Donovan Klingen. When you see

443
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,199
Speaker 3: eighteen in the box score for the Blazers, you're like, oh,

444
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 3: cling must have went nuts. But it was really the

445
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 3: second unit, like Chris Murray I think had four, and

446
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 3: you know, with a Brook Lopez being a starter with

447
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 3: Zoo Bots out, there's no backup center at all for

448
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 3: the Clippers and their second you know, it looked really

449
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 3: really tiny, thirty two second chance points for Portland. I

450
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 3: thought Obdia was good, just being too physical for the Clippers.

451
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 3: Like Derrek Jones Junior was doing his best. He's quicker

452
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 3: than Abdia, but Abdia is a very physical driver and

453
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 3: was just able to go through him time and time again,

454
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 3: getting to the rim, getting to the free throw line.

455
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 3: Drew Holliday you could tell was totally feeling it, just

456
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,719
Speaker 3: letting it fly anytime he had even a sliver of daylight.

457
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 3: So I thought this was a great win from the Blazers,

458
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 3: a team that like is having a really anonymous season.

459
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 3: I feel like they've been sitting there in the play

460
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 3: in for a long time. They just got over five

461
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: hundred with this win, I think thirty nine and thirty

462
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,680
Speaker 3: eight right now. I think they're probably having a better

463
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 3: season than they did last year, you know, but like

464
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 3: they just don't come up a lot, like none of

465
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 3: the guys that you thought would really pop pop, Like

466
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 3: Shading Sharp's kind of just been out there like he

467
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 3: just had a normal season. Drew has been really good, yeah, exactly.

468
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: Jeremy Grant had a better year. He was out last night. Drew,

469
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 3: like I said, Abdiya has been good. He made the

470
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 3: All Star team. But it just feels like a team

471
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 3: that exists. But I thought this was a huge win

472
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 3: for the Blazers last night.

473
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: I think Scoot Henderson playing a little bit better is

474
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: a nice development here for the Blazers. So the last

475
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: little stretch, this is this is good, This is better Scoot,

476
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: at least your thoughts.

477
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 2: And he's been interjected into the starting lineup two, which

478
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 2: was very interesting with no Shade and Sharp out there.

479
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 2: They got to make a decision and he's in there.

480
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 2: And the bench that you mentioned was the difference in

481
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 2: this game. I thought, you know, we like to talk

482
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, so the bench is always better at home.

483
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 2: They went on the road and did a great job

484
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 2: outscoring Portland. The rebounds from Chris Murray that was really

485
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 2: really important. I thought that turned it. And speaking of

486
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 2: turn it, if there's a segue to turning it on,

487
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 2: it's Drew Holliday turning it on. It's fun to watch

488
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: him as sort of a lead guard who has to

489
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 2: score with this offense. It's Audia and I thought coming

490
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: into the season, Shade and Sharp would have to be

491
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 2: relied on a lot, and he got injured and now

492
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 2: it's it's Avidia and Drew Holiday. So he's going to

493
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: have the green light at all times. And that'll be

494
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 2: fun in a playing game or potentially a playoff series.

495
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was one of Drew Holiday's best games of

496
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 1: the season. Like, you've got to go back to well,

497
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: early in March he had a gamer he hit eight

498
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 1: three pointers against the Grizzlies. He also played the Jazz awesome.

499
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: ALTI three times he's played them, or I know in

500
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: three games he's like lit them up. But that's the

501
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 1: Jazz played well against the Lakers, me I go back

502
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: to the start of the season for that. This is

503
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,919
Speaker 1: one of his best games. He was awesome and you

504
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: you brought up to eighteen offensive rebounds thirty two second

505
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: chance points. That's the Blazers game. I think they're one

506
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: of the top teams in both those categories in the league,

507
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: you know, when it comes to second chance points in

508
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,239
Speaker 1: offensive rebound. So that's that's the remo and I'm with

509
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,199
Speaker 1: you TK. They treated this like a sort of a

510
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 1: must win game, almost like a play in sort of example,

511
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: what's the word I'm looking for preview trial run? I

512
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: guess y, yeah, experiment. Yeah, Like we're going to be

513
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: having these games and it's one game to either either

514
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: get into this thing or not so really impressive stuff

515
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: there by the Blazers in a weird season. I'm with you,

516
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 1: like we talked about them a little bit at the

517
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: beginning because they're like, oh, they're playing okay after the

518
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: whole billup scandal and all that, and then it was

519
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 1: like Crickets didn't really talk about them all that much

520
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 1: as they just sort of maintained being decent and five

521
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,679
Speaker 1: hundred is solid for this team. Funny moment at the

522
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,479
Speaker 1: end of the game, though Clippers broadcast, which included our

523
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: guy bones Brent Barry, they show Jeremy Grant on the sidelines.

524
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 1: Blazers were pumped. This guy wears some unique things. He's

525
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: you know, fashion forward, and Brian Seaman, the play by

526
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: play announcer, said, I'm not seen a sweater like that

527
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 1: from Jeremy Grant JD. I think you have the photo,

528
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: and Bones said, yeah, looks like he's protecting the drawbridge.

529
00:22:55,080 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: This is a ridiculous shirt he's wearing. It's Game of Zones, Yes, exactly. Yeah,

530
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 1: Bones talking about Game of Zones.

531
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 2: That's great.

532
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so funny line from Brent Barry.

533
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 2: I mean I like the flur to lee on it.

534
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the collar hoodie? Is that a hoodie? I

535
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 2: can't even tell.

536
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: I think it's a part of the sweater.

537
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a part of the sweater, but I don't

538
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 2: know if it has a hood. If it's a hood.

539
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 1: I think louis sort of a look to him.

540
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 4: He looks bad.

541
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 1: I don't like this look.

542
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 4: That is a bad look. I don't like the color

543
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 4: on him.

544
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the color. Out of the color. Okay, he's hot.

545
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 2: He looks hot. I mean I'm sweat It.

546
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:33,360
Speaker 4: Doesn't look comfortable.

547
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: He looks hot, tired, Just lay down on the hood.

548
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 1: Other games from last night will chuck him up here

549
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: on the on the screen for everybody on YouTube. We

550
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: have the Magic beating the Suns, the Hornets kicking the nets,

551
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 1: ass Pistons beating the Raptors, and Bucks beating the Mavericks.

552
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:52,960
Speaker 1: I guess are the games that we didn't talk about.

553
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 1: Any other takeaways from from those.

554
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 2: Four Well, you jumped at the Bucks there. Alex Attokumpo

555
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 2: played in an NBA game. All four brothers, all four

556
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 2: Goober brothers have played an NBA. Yeah, that's pretty cool.

557
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 2: He's not in there is.

558
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: That history with four brothers? I think so?

559
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 2: Yes, well could Yeah, who else would it be?

560
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 4: I mean there's other berries, aren't there?

561
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: Yeah?

562
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 4: John Brent get a canyon.

563
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 2: We didn't get a canyon Barry in the n B

564
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 2: A uh, this is Drew. That's it, John Barry, that's it, Drew,

565
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 2: John Bent, Brent. I should say, yeah, that's it.

566
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: It's usually three threees were usually max out. Yeah, we

567
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: got all four.

568
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: No canyon canyon. Yeah, pretty cool. That's all I have

569
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 2: to say about Alex. Come out.

570
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: You don't think that's a please, Giannis.

571
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 4: We'll do anything. We'll even play your fourth brother.

572
00:24:53,960 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 2: I mean he was it is come on, well, when

573
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 2: they signed him in the first place, every every brother,

574
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: when they signed the Nasis, that's it's pretty evident why

575
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,359
Speaker 2: they want thenasis around coastas is playing in Europe. Alex

576
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 2: was playing with the Wisconsin heard.

577
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 1: Uh, they all played for the Bucks.

578
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 2: What do you mean? Two?

579
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: He never played for the Bucks.

580
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 2: He's an NBA champion with the lostme.

581
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: He also was on the roster.

582
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 2: He didn't know. I thought yesterday Jalen Durna was so

583
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 2: good for the Pistons beating Toronto. He looked phenomenal. He

584
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 2: looked like the handle was going past Jaka Purdle the

585
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 2: fast break for that guy. I thought. Even his miss

586
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 2: with his left hand was pretty Uh he spun past

587
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 2: thirteen shooting. Yeah, he looked. He looked so good, his

588
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 2: finishes so good. Team effort was just there to take

589
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 2: out the Wraps. Sixty percent from the floor, fifty six

590
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 2: percent from three and even like the last two minutes

591
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 2: as the Reps made it a close game. Dannis Jenkins

592
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 2: out there guarding Jamal shut at the three point line.

593
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 2: Sheed goes by him, but Jenkins is able to recover

594
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 2: and block the snot out of him to lead to

595
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 2: a Duram bucket. So that's just effort, man. They are

596
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 2: they are peaking at the right time, and we'll start

597
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 2: to jump up people's vote picks in the first round

598
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 2: slowly here. I know we're waiting for Kid at the

599
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 2: same time to see if he returns. But they have

600
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 2: been absolutely impressive.

601
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Pistons beating the Raptors to clinch their first

602
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: division title since two thousand and seven. Two thousand and eight,

603
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: so eighteen years since the Pistons have won that Central Division.

604
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: And I'm with you, like these last couple of weeks,

605
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: if you were debating whether or not Jalen Duran was

606
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: an All NBA worthy player, I think that he's cemented

607
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: his status without Kid. He's been really really solid over

608
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: this little stretch as they keep winning these games. I

609
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 1: think he's a lot to be a top fifteen player

610
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: in the league this year and be voted in there

611
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: deservedly so. And then Dannis Jenkins, this guy was a

612
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: two way contract guy. He had twenty one points five

613
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: assists last night. He's averaging nineteen and seven since replacing

614
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: Kate Cunningham who had to leave. Obviously the starting lineup,

615
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: so as the starting point guard. I mean, that's what

616
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 1: a fine in this guy.

617
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 4: Totally. Yeah, he's good. He's just good.

618
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 2: He's that spark.

619
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: Any other thoughts.

620
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks was back, played its first game since February

621
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 3: twenty first. In the first ninety seconds, he had two

622
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 3: files of turnover and a technical.

623
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: He's back, baby.

624
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 3: He has one hundred percent back. Seventeenth tech of the

625
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 3: season for Dylan Brooks. So he'll be suspended if he

626
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 3: gets another one, which he'll get another one guaranteed.

627
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 4: Welcome back.

628
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 3: Forty five combined turnovers in this game, sixty one combined files,

629
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 3: seventy six combined free throws.

630
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 2: Disgusting cross and Dylan was bad. He had five files

631
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 2: with ten minutes left in the third quarter, and that

632
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 2: he shot it over the backboard late in the fourth corner.

633
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 2: He was a little rusty that hand that he broke.

634
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,719
Speaker 2: It ain't one hundred percent. If you're shooting it over

635
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 2: the backboard, it ain't right.

636
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame News Candice Parker, Let's go. Elena Dela

637
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: don a'mrio, Stodamayer, Rivers are among those set to be

638
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,919
Speaker 1: inducted into the Nasmith Basketball Hall of Fame Class of

639
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. We always say this when we get

640
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: into Hall of Fame news. This is like the eighth

641
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: time I feel like we've talked about it.

642
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 4: Yes, just the way.

643
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,119
Speaker 1: This news comes out over the calendar year. But it

644
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: will be official who the inductees are this weekend. I

645
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 1: guess Gonzaga coach Mark Few is also expected to be

646
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 1: one of them. But WNBA stars, I mean, you got

647
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: the jersey on TKA, you're a huge kandas Parker fan,

648
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 1: she's one of the greatest players of all time. I mean,

649
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 1: both of them are no brainers. Like they're both former MVPs,

650
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: both champions. But let's talk a little bit about the

651
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: the NBA angle, the Amari Statdameyer being the one, and

652
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 1: then even Doc Rivers.

653
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 3: Let's just talk about Chicago because this is a three

654
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 3: big Chicago players going in. Kandas Parker won a title

655
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 3: with the Sky from Naperville, the gout of all WNBA

656
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 3: players of all time indisputable.

657
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 4: Nobody can disagree with me.

658
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 3: Ellen Alayanadala Don won an MVP with the Sky, did

659
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 3: winner title with the Miss Dicks. Doc Rivers from Maywood

660
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:02,480
Speaker 3: Proviso East.

661
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, there you go.

662
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 4: That's great. Great stuff.

663
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 3: I am surprised though, that Amari Stodamier made it over

664
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 3: Blake Griffin.

665
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 4: They have identical cases.

666
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: The sext time All Star, five time All NBA Rookie

667
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 3: of the Year didn't win a title. But Amari retired

668
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 3: seven years before Blake Griffin, so I think he gets

669
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 3: to go in first.

670
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: This is good news for Blake Griffin.

671
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 4: He's for sure.

672
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 3: I thought he would be in now since he's so

673
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 3: affiliated with the NBA, being on broadcast and doing work

674
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 3: with Prime all this kind of stuff. But I'm surprised

675
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 3: they only chose one of them. I guess just save him, yeah,

676
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 3: because he will get in.

677
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think Amari got in because this is his

678
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 2: second year of eligibility while it's Blake's first. That's the

679
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 2: main thing I think in between the two of them,

680
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 2: and that's the biggest difference. Amari is an NBA champion.

681
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 2: If he doesn't come off the bench and get suspended

682
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 2: in that Western Conference Final against San Antonispurs, I think

683
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: they win that thing if he doesn't get suspended. But uh, yeah,

684
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 2: six time All Star, five time All NBA. It's hard

685
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 2: to keep him out. It's it's it's very hard to

686
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 2: keep him out career shortened by injuries. If he's not injured,

687
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 2: or if he doesn't take a step onto the bench

688
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 2: or onto the floor, I should saying David Seart says

689
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: you out of here, then he's got an NBA title

690
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 2: in my opinion. But it is interesting to see how

691
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 2: the candidates vote. It would be great if they had

692
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 2: transparency and we knew how they all voted, so we

693
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 2: could get into it a little bit. Because there's twenty

694
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: four votes, you've got to have eighteen to be eligible,

695
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: so seventy five percent basically of the House Honors Committee

696
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 2: they call him. It would be nice, But is the

697
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 2: NBA one an NBA player here at Mara just because

698
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 2: he is the biggest name to be eligible, or maybe

699
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 2: he's just getting in.

700
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, so this one, this one is obviously

701
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: headlined by the ladies, and deservedly so with these two.

702
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: But I'm Mauri's in there and Doug Rivers, you know, look,

703
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: he's fun to clown on right now. And obviously what's

704
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: gone wrong maybe with the Bucks and even over his

705
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: career with the blown three to one leads, which he

706
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 1: I guess is the clubhouse leader for three one leads

707
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,959
Speaker 1: blown in playoff series. But I mean, this guy has

708
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: a lot of victories. One ninety two in counting. That's

709
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: sixth all time. He's eighteen wins away from pat Riley.

710
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: He's the only coach in the top ten in victories

711
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: not to been inducted. Yet he's got a bunch of

712
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: playoff victories. He's got the title to another finals.

713
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 2: I think he'll have a good speech. I will say that.

714
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever been looking forward to a

715
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: speech from a coach at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony,

716
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 2: but I think he'll be good. I think he's a talker,

717
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 2: and you know, he thanked everybody around him, all the relationships,

718
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 2: all the hundreds of techs and that he received. He

719
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 2: sees that kind of guy, and that's that's why he's

720
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 2: been a coach for so long. He's not getting in

721
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 2: for what he did as a player, although he's are

722
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 2: All Star ones.

723
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: How long did he play? He must have a long

724
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: career plus ten years? Yeah, he did, twelve years, thirteen years.

725
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 3: I also think should make Wi Holds claw should be in. Okay,

726
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 3: good not great WNBA career, no title, no MVP, but

727
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 3: a six time All Star, our three time second team

728
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 3: All w led the league in scoring.

729
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: But this is the Basketball Hall of Fame. You factor

730
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:06,800
Speaker 1: in the college stuff.

731
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 3: She was a three time NCAA champion, two time most

732
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 3: Outstanding player in the tournament. She was going to be

733
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 3: Kandas Parker before Kandas Parker. So maybe not quite living

734
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 3: up to expectations is what keeps her out.

735
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 1: But I think she should be in there for sure.

736
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: And I guess the actual induction is in It usually

737
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: late August, early September something like that when we actually

738
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 1: do this.

739
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 2: I think they've been pushing it a little bit later,

740
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 2: so it's closer to the I'm wrong. Maybe they pushed

741
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 2: earlier so we could be a twelve month sporting league potentially.

742
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: Potentially, Yeah, they moved it, though, You're right, who will?

743
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: Is it a no brainer that Amari will pick Steve

744
00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 1: Nash to induct him. I would hope, so you would

745
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: think so obviously what they were like together eight years

746
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: there in Phoenix.

747
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, so why doesn't he get in last year and

748
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 2: gets in this year?

749
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: Who went true? Went in last year? Do you remember

750
00:32:58,200 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: off the top of your head?

751
00:32:59,080 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 2: Is that?

752
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: Vince? And I see No, Wait, Vince for sure. Yeah,

753
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: I can't keep.

754
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 2: Track of these.

755
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 4: Mellow right, mellow, Yeah.

756
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 1: Okay, well then you're getting to your reasons.

757
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 2: But the weird part is you've got twenty four people

758
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 2: who vote. You have to look at them individually. I

759
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 2: think the weird part is what's a ma's resume? Oh,

760
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: Vince Carter gets in, so he doesn't get in. It

761
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 2: just doesn't really make much sense to me. Hellow and

762
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 2: Dwight Howard was oh yeah.

763
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: D White last year, so Vince was year before or before?

764
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Vince was the year before.

765
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: I guess the year before Vincent Chauncey billups.

766
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 2: Okay, right, that's an odd one. Yeah, shock, But yeah,

767
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: the question of whether Chauncey will stay in the Hall

768
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 2: of Fame has been a question.

769
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 1: I forgot about that. Yeah, that's the more of the questions.

770
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, did Vince get put into the Hall of

771
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 2: Fame and then retired by the Raptors the following season.

772
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: That's weird. That's right, as Jersey retired twice in the

773
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: same season.

774
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's weird. Anyway.

775
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: All right, well, congratulations to whoever ultimately gets voted into

776
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. We're gonna take a break when

777

Speaker 1: I didn't get to fishing, by the way, apologies to you.

804
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: Let everybody out there. No ripping lips on my trip

805
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: to the Smokies like that. But we did go by.

806
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: We went. We stopped on the way back to Atlanta

807
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: at like another waterfalls, closer than it was in North

808
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: Carolina near Cherokee, I guess. And uh, we drove by

809
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: is it CoA? Those those call them playgrounds Koa. They

810
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 1: must have a stock to stocked pond. There were thousands

811
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: of fishermen.

812
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,320
Speaker 2: Wow, it was crazy.

813
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: I've never seen that many people on one body of

814
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 1: water fishing to Koa Derby. Perhaps maybe it was, but

815
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,320
Speaker 1: it sounds like it felt like it. I was like, oh,

816
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: that could be ripping lips right there, but I didn't.

817
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 1: All right, let's go rip, let's go rip in together.

818
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: You're the last person I read together. Yeah, I would

819
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 1: love to do that. Yeah, it's almost time for the spawn.

820
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:09,919
Speaker 4: Once the water get.

821
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: It a little, you're in the bath star hell. Yeah.

822
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 3: They're trying to protect them and we're just trying to

823
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 3: snatch off their beds.

824
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 1: The plastic gotcha fish, all right? Well, speaking of April,

825
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:36,799
Speaker 1: fools Day. We got a fun new segment called You Fool, Dude,

826
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: dumb Ass fish some fun questions here, seeing as it

827
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: is April Fool's Day, that we could sort of like

828
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 1: look back at the season we've had here the regular season,

829
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: maybe what we got wrong, We got tricked by some

830
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 1: of these teams. So the first question and play along

831
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: in the stream team with your answers there. I know

832
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 1: we pinned the question there. Which team made you look

833
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: the most foolish this season? We'll do players in a second,

834
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,240
Speaker 1: but team tasks who made you to look like a fool?

835
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 2: The New Orleans Pelicans made me look foolish. Zion Williamson

836
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 2: convinced me in that preseason press conference. He sat at

837
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 2: that table. I felt like I was looking at him

838
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 2: into the camera, and he started saying that Joe Dumar

839
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 2: is the new lead of the front office. He said

840
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 2: that I got to be responsible. I mean, he's holding

841
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,360
Speaker 2: me accountable. He said, if I slip up, He'll be

842
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 2: right there to make sure I get right back on earth.

843
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 2: He said. Me and Joey had a lot of man

844
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 2: to man conversations, and I said, I will not let

845
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 2: you down. As he was looking to me in the camera.

846
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 2: I thought he was talking to me. He's like, I

847
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 2: will not let you down. And he also said, last

848
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 2: year I learned my body. It wasn't me in the

849
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,800
Speaker 2: off season where I figured things out physically. It was

850
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 2: during the season. You know, we always see in the summer, oh,

851
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 2: this guy is healthy, this guy's fit well. But he

852
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 2: told me and told me he was talking to me. Yeah,

853
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 2: he told everybody that last year I got injured, but

854
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 2: I figured out how to get my body back right.

855
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 2: He got injured after six games last year, and then

856
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 2: this year injured after just five games played. They started

857
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 2: the season six and twenty four. Last year. I thought, okay, well,

858
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 2: if he's gonna play, then they're gonna be all right.

859
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,399
Speaker 2: That Wason did come back and play a lot this season,

860
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,320
Speaker 2: but they started eight and twenty two. Not all that different.

861
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 2: They were just bad. He told me that he learned

862
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 2: something from CJ. McCollum, He said, the guy I learned from.

863
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,880
Speaker 2: He called this like a transition period, a transition to

864
00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,719
Speaker 2: what I mean, it really hasn't changed all that much,

865
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 2: even though again, yeah, he played, and he said I

866
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 2: learned from Joe. Talent is natural, Greatness is every day,

867
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 2: he fooled me and the over under was only thirty

868
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: one and a half, and I thought thirty one and

869
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: a half. You learned everything from the great Joe Dumars.

870
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 2: You're better physically though.

871
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 1: This really made it look like the All Star Game

872
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: was going to be awesome.

873
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, wells, but he's trust worthy guy. He fooled me

874
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: last year at the All Star Game, recovered this year.

875
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: Sure they got it worked.

876
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, well maybe if they get rid of Joe, I'll

877
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 2: be buying the Pelicans stock for next season. But that

878
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,759
Speaker 2: start of last year again saying that he's better physically,

879
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: which again he has played, but he looked he lost,

880
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 2: missed such a big chunk. The team wasn't right. But again,

881
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 2: I'll be convinced again next year considering Dejone Murray will

882
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 2: be healthy or whatever. Everybody will sort of be healthier.

883
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 2: But I got I got duped once again.

884
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: Thirty one and a half.

885
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:41,719
Speaker 2: That's how low it was. And they're not going to

886
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 2: get there.

887
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 4: You don't think they're on their last six, No are?

888
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:45,439
Speaker 2: They have twenty six?

889
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:46,879
Speaker 4: I think they have twenty five wins.

890
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: Yeah I did, Yeah, I did the match.

891
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: They can't get I can't do it amazing played a lot.

892
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: He's gonna play over sixty games, is yeah, congrats.

893
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 2: Yeah he missed the wrong part. I mean, to miss

894
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 2: like November, you kind of have to play and get

895
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 2: your team going. They're eight and twenty two to start,

896
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 2: and they could recover. I mean again, they're not even

897
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: gonna win thirty games. Yeah, who cares. IVERY think it's

898
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 2: his fault though, I think the team is just poorly built.

899
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 3: Like they've got a lot of guys who are good

900
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 3: and not a lot of great players. And Zion has

901
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 3: played differently this year. I think he's trying to save

902
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 3: his body. I think he's trying to stay healthy. He's

903
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 3: just not quite as explosive, but he's still effective. Like

904
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 3: he's at like twenty one per game rather than like

905
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 3: twenty five to twenty seven. But like they started Jeremiah

906
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 3: Fears at point guard for the first twenty games of

907
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 3: the season.

908
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was that part. Zion was exactly the same

909
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 2: last year. He knew when he came back that I

910
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 2: can't be this go all the time type of guy,

911
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 2: and so his points slowed down last year and so

912
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 2: that I figured that he figured that out. They did

913
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,800
Speaker 2: change it up. They fired Willie Green, and they said, okay,

914
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 2: we're going in a different direction here. Derrek Queen's going

915
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 2: to be playing. But Trey Murphy has had an incredible year,

916
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 2: and you know, they haven't got it together until the

917
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 2: Jeante Murray kind of came around, they were kind of stable. Now, yeah,

918
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 2: they're supporting guys aren't good enough. But to be that

919
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 2: bad again, thirty one and a half is not a

920
00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 2: high aspiration.

921
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 1: No, I agree they.

922
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 4: Shouldn't be that bad.

923
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 1: No, absolutely. I mean it's still Zion playing sixty five games.

924
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 1: Yeah this season, that's going to be his like second

925
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: most played games in a season ever. And I was

926
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 1: gonna say, like, it's gonna be nuts that what this

927
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: is seven seasons of Zion Williamson. I know he missed

928
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: the one year entirely, but seven NBA years. There's not

929
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: even a playoff tab on his basketball reference page to

930
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 1: click on because he hasn't been there. And you know,

931
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: obviously got some untimed or untimely injuries there that took

932
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 1: him out. But wow, that's just incredible to me. He

933
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: hasn't even played in a postseason game.

934
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he definitely helped his team get there. Yeah, I

935
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 2: know that I know lost to the Suns.

936
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,359
Speaker 1: But okay, Zion gotcha with his hot bod.

937
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 2: He's good at press conferences right too.

938
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 1: You listen, hey, listen here, test Mellis. I'm feeling one

939
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 1: hundred percent this year. I'm coming in with a new attitude. Yeah,

940
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 1: am I boding? I'm ready to go.

941
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 4: Let's go.

942
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 2: The Cowboy. I'm gonna change it up. I've been watching

943
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 2: a lot of NBA coverage from my desk with my

944
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 2: monitor right in my face, so it feels like that

945
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 2: person again is right there. That's that's an e c

946
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 2: U on that person. I mean, that's extreme close up.

947
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 2: I'm like, that person is right there with me, and

948
00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 2: I think that's a factor next year. I'm zooming out

949
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 2: rolling that chair back. Talk to me. But we've all

950
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 2: been filled by Zion before. It's great that he's playing.

951
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 2: I guess you're gonna do it again next year.

952
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 1: That's my favorite part.

953
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 2: What about Jon Murray? At least they have.

954
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 3: I think does Johntay Murray missing two thirds of the

955
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 3: season is probably more than Zion missing twenty games. And

956
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 3: I mean they have no centers. They literally have no centers, right, Matkovich.

957
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 2: Looney Kevin Looney also got hurt that kind of Hey,

958
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:00,439
Speaker 2: look a question.

959
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 1: I know you focused on Zion, but the question was team,

960
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 1: and the Pelicans fooled a lot of people. We thought

961
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: they were gonna be much more.

962
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 4: He's not the most disappointing Pelicans in me, right, That's right.

963
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 1: I'm just saying something. Yeah, exactly, what about you, though?

964
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 1: Team that made you look foolish?

965
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,120
Speaker 4: I remember when the Bulls started six and one. That

966
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 4: was cool. They were fooling this all kings. I took

967
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 4: the over Wolves.

968
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 3: Timber Wolves never fooled me until they did, and then

969
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 3: they completely yanked the rug from underneath my foolish, foolish feet.

970
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 3: But my ultimate team that made me look the most

971
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 3: foolish the Houston Rockets.

972
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:31,399
Speaker 1: I don't understand what happened here.

973
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 4: They looked great.

974
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,080
Speaker 3: Last night, so clearly you can tell I pulled all

975
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 3: these numbers before last night. It happened, but before Steven

976
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:42,280
Speaker 3: Adams got injured. On January eighteenth, the Rockets were fourth

977
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 3: in offensive rating. Didn't make any sense. How are they

978
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 3: doing this? They don't have a lot of shooters. Everybody

979
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 3: creates on the inside. They did have a massive offensive

980
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 3: rebound rate, first in the league at forty one percent,

981
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 3: but after eighteenth in offensive rating, and you're thinking, Steven

982
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 3: Adams shouldn't matter this. The guy sets screens and gets

983
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 3: offensive rebounds. They're offensive rebounding dropped all the way to

984
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 3: second in the league, still grabbing thirty six percent of

985
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,399
Speaker 3: offensive rebounds. They get one fewer put back per game,

986
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 3: but for whatever reason, the offense just completely fell apart.

987
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 3: And that's with most of their guys being healthy. They

988
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,760
Speaker 3: have four players who have sixty five or more starts

989
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 3: this season. Then it's kind of been a shuffle in

990
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 3: for who's going to be the fifth guy. Sometimes it's

991
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 3: a Kogi, it's been Reed Sheppard, Tari Easan has gotten

992
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 3: a chance. Tari Easton is maybe the biggest fool of

993
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 3: them all. Shot forty six percent from three before the

994
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 3: All Star Game, nineteen percent after before playing pretty well

995
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 3: last night. So it just doesn't make sense to me.

996
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 3: Both parts of it, like how are the Rockets so

997
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 3: good the first half of the season and also how

998
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:43,840
Speaker 3: did they fall off so hard in.

999
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: The second half of the season. I feel like a

1000
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 1: fool because I can't figure it out.

1001
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Tari Eason is a really interesting part because

1002
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 2: he's kind of an X factor in that he can

1003
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 2: do everything on both sides, but has been bad since

1004
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 2: the All Star Game, and he has his mom literally

1005
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 2: went on Twitter and asked Lethal Shooter, Hey, go help

1006
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,960
Speaker 2: that guy out because he was missed so many times.

1007
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:09,799
Speaker 2: The question is, yeah, with the guard position, as we've

1008
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,840
Speaker 2: always said with this team is reach upper. He's going

1009
00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 2: to be reliable come off season hopefully, and.

1010
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,680
Speaker 1: A rocket player. I feel like we've barely talked about

1011
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: this season, which is weird when like you get to

1012
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: your fourth year and like there's a lot of promise

1013
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 1: behind you. That's maybe when you blos him as a player.

1014
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: Is Jabari Smith Junior? Yeah, big up nearly talked about

1015
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 1: him and I'm not like he's been bad, but yeah, no,

1016
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 1: no real leveling up. I would say, obviously signed his

1017
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 1: contract extent, he's been fine, Yeah, which you know, obviously

1018
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: not hurting the team by any means. But I think

1019
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 1: some people had higher hopes for this fourth year. Is

1020
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: like someone when of these guys starting to figure things out.

1021
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 2: But Kevin Durant, while he was on Twitter on that

1022
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 2: burn account, sure did, Yeah, who was going to be

1023
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,359
Speaker 2: that guy to really step up? He's been fine. He's

1024
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 2: definitely been fine.

1025
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: My answer for this, i'm but I'm glad you brought

1026
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: up the Kings. I mean you you lock them in

1027
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 1: on the over I back to you. I didn't lock them,

1028
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 1: but I was like, oh yeah, here we go. And

1029
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: the Kings disappointed us, as they always do. So I'll

1030
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: leave that and I'll go with a team that made

1031
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: me look foolish this season, sir, Orlando Magic. I locked

1032
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 1: the Magic in to win over fifty and a half games,

1033
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: so I thought they were going to be one of

1034
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 1: these at least top four, if not top three teams

1035
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 1: in the Eastern Conference. Let me go through the points

1036
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 1: I was making in the preseason and how they fared

1037
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 1: zero point one. Oh guys, the addition of Desmond Bain.

1038
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 1: This guy's a career forty one percent three point shooter.

1039
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: That's going to give the Magic a much needed boost

1040
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:41,360
Speaker 1: in perimeter shooting. Because remember two years ago, Orlando finished

1041
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 1: last in three pointers made and last in three point percentage.

1042
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:48,239
Speaker 1: So that's twenty four to twenty five. This season, they

1043
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 1: ranked twenty fourth in three pointers made and twenty sixth

1044
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:56,840
Speaker 1: in three point percentage. Small improvements, yes, but the problem

1045
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: is it's not keeping up with the rest of the league,

1046
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 1: who across the board just generally got better. So that's

1047
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: rough point two. Simple was the formula was simple, was

1048
00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,680
Speaker 1: my point. All they gotta do is boost the offense

1049
00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,879
Speaker 1: while maintaining that lockdown defense, because that's their calling card.

1050
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:17,280
Speaker 1: They're elite defensively, well, they fell from second in defensive

1051
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: rating two seasons ago all the way to like middle

1052
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: of the pack. I think they bumped up a little

1053
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,879
Speaker 1: bit last night. Let's call it fifteenth heading into last

1054
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: night's game. I think they're thirteenth now in defensive rating.

1055
00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:33,760
Speaker 1: They don't. It's so weird. They're like just above average

1056
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: at one thing on the defensive end, it's rebounding. Otherwise

1057
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,720
Speaker 1: it's not really all that the good. They're just average.

1058
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: Whoops point three the Magic's point guard play. I was

1059
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: talking about Jaalen Suggs having a breakout year two seasons ago.

1060
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: He was set in career highs in points and rebound

1061
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 1: and steals and blocks, and then his season got cut

1062
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 1: short due to the knee surgery. I said, oh, that's okay.

1063
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,360
Speaker 1: They got tyas Jones in there. That's a great veteran

1064
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,760
Speaker 1: insurance policy. If sug goes down. So what happens Suggs

1065
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: suffers through injuries again, he's going to be closer to

1066
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:08,720
Speaker 1: fifty games played instead of sixty five. Plus this guy's

1067
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 1: twenty four years old. You would think he's thirty four

1068
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,839
Speaker 1: to thirty five. Yes, with bangs, he's always banged up.

1069
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: And then Tias Jones, dear Lord, you know, fool me once,

1070
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,759
Speaker 1: Shamn Shaman, you fool me, fool me if you can't

1071
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 1: get fooled again. Jones played forty eight games for the Magic.

1072
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 1: I don't remember a single thing Tias Jones did for

1073
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,919
Speaker 1: the Magic this year. He shot under thirty percent from three.

1074
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 1: He chipped in a cool three points per game. I

1075
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: thought that was a typo on Basketball Reference. I was like,

1076
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 1: I can't be that bad. Yeah, And he was traded

1077
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 1: to the Hornets for Dick All and he was rerouted

1078
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 1: to the Mavericks. Dick's been playing pretty good. Yeah, played

1079
00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 1: a few games for Dallas.

1080
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 2: He was waived.

1081
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,080
Speaker 1: Look he's on the Nuggets now. It's yeah, whatever, but wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong,

1082
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,319
Speaker 1: mainly the Sugs part, and he's so important. And then

1083
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 1: finally point four was I was focusing on Pallo Bancaro

1084
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 1: and Franz Wagner. They were coming off career years. I said,

1085
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 1: look at these guys, they're three. They're just one of

1086
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:11,240
Speaker 1: three returning healthy duos that score over twenty four points

1087
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 1: per game. It's Luca and Lebron, It's Brunton and Cat,

1088
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:20,880
Speaker 1: It's Palo and Franz. And Palo struggled for a majority

1089
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: of the season. He's starting the round into form a

1090
00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: little bit. And Franz. I mean, this guy's played four

1091
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 1: games in twenty twenty six. He's played two games state side,

1092
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: played two games in Berlin. Because they're like, oh he's German,

1093
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 1: get him out there. So I mean I drafted Franz.

1094
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 1: I may have taken Franz first overall in our first

1095
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: time All Star draft. I took him in the first round.

1096
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 1: I took him early, thinking okay, he's gonna blossom into

1097
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:48,200
Speaker 1: that player. So it's just they're never out there together.

1098
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,319
Speaker 1: This stat from the Sikos over at you know Ball,

1099
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: over the last two seasons, Paolo, Franz and Suggs have

1100
00:49:56,560 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 1: played two hundred and twenty seven minutes together there. That's like,

1101
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,279
Speaker 1: that's like a week and a half of basketball is

1102
00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 1: a week.

1103
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:07,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's nothing.

1104
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 1: They just can never get all on the same page

1105
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 1: be healthy as Yeah, so.

1106
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 2: I was wrong, But it's the injuries that I'm most

1107
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,480
Speaker 2: worried about. Our powows and sucks and not so much Frants.

1108
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,840
Speaker 2: I mean, coming into this season, it's understandable that you

1109
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 2: picked Franz to be a first time All Star. Yeah,

1110
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 2: he has been fairly healthy in his career. This is

1111
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:29,239
Speaker 2: his fifth year. His first four he missed three games,

1112
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 2: then he missed two games, and he was ten games chunk.

1113
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 2: Last year. Last year, last year was his first year.

1114
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,160
Speaker 2: He missed twenty five percent. He played in sixty games.

1115
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:36,919
Speaker 2: That was his first one.

1116
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: The oblique, the oblique tobacco blaques.

1117
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 2: Oh, that oblique disease was running rampant around the Orlando

1118
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 2: Magic locker room for some odd reason. But he probably

1119
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,479
Speaker 2: would have got there. If he played more this year,

1120
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 2: he would have have been an All Star. Maybe maybe

1121
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 2: it was your your Pascal Sia come he could have

1122
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:54,560
Speaker 2: taken that sp.

1123
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 1: I just got fooled though. I thought the defense ain't

1124
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: going anywhere. They if they which, they make the Desmond

1125
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 1: by Bain trade to help their offense, and they're shooting

1126
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:03,879
Speaker 1: and it's like.

1127
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 2: We all took the over. We all took the over.

1128
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 1: Okay, well there you go, and and this is a

1129
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 1: second Apron team looming. You gotta win now, and probably

1130
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:16,400
Speaker 1: their coach is gonna get fired. I mean they flame

1131
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 1: out here in the plan or even the postseason. I

1132
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: think it has to be him, unless they make another

1133
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: drastic move and split up a palo in front, which

1134
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,080
Speaker 1: I guess is a possibility. So anyway, they fooled me, man, Yeah,

1135
00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: fooled me.

1136
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 2: If Tys Jones ain't performing, it's the coach's fault. You

1137
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:34,400
Speaker 2: could see him performing in Denver. But it is hilarious

1138
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 2: when we go through our over unders. I think all

1139
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 2: of my superlocks are wrong. All six of mine look like.

1140
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 2: It's pretty hilarious.

1141
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 1: I did see. I took a look at our Eastern conference.

1142
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,320
Speaker 1: I can't say we all uh we're cooking in the East.

1143
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,360
Speaker 1: I mean I just did a.

1144
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 2: Yours was magic where your super lucks?

1145
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 1: He doesn't?

1146
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 3: Right? Yeah?

1147
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, over for sure, But nope.

1148
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,360
Speaker 2: Trey went Nicks. It's not going to happen over magic

1149
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 2: over six ers under super lock.

1150
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 4: I might have missed on all my locks.

1151
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:13,360
Speaker 2: Yeah about my Uh, I got an over on the bulls.

1152
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 2: I thought six and one, we're cooking. They're not going

1153
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,280
Speaker 2: to get there. They're not going to get to thirty.

1154
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,360
Speaker 4: Two, and nobody expected them to actually do trades.

1155
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 2: I gotta say, though, just because somebody is calling us

1156
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,360
Speaker 2: out in the stream team that we didn't take the

1157
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 2: over on the Celtics, we all did all.

1158
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 3: I did it.

1159
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:31,680
Speaker 2: I did it. Here. There's a type out. Look at this,

1160
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:33,120
Speaker 2: Look at this, Look at my graphic.

1161
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 4: Take a look at my graphic.

1162
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 2: It says over over over.

1163
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:38,959
Speaker 1: Oh I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure we did.

1164
00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:40,800
Speaker 2: Have an edit session where there was a couple of

1165
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 2: mistakes there with our man matth Houston.

1166
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,240
Speaker 1: You got to look at the ones that are on Instagram.

1167
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,240
Speaker 1: I feel like those are the real ones. But anyway,

1168
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:50,600
Speaker 1: I think I took him under. Either way, Let's go

1169
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,440
Speaker 1: to the second question. Trey, you answer first, which player

1170
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 1: had you fooled this season?

1171
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:54,919
Speaker 3: Oh?

1172
00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 4: Many foolers for me. Ja Morant fooled me.

1173
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 3: I took the Grays over because I said, when John

1174
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 3: Morant and Jared Jackson Junior played together, they just win games,

1175
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,560
Speaker 3: went out, had thirty five points on opening night. Test said,

1176
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:08,239
Speaker 3: this man will be at the MVP table. I said,

1177
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:11,799
Speaker 3: you're right, he'll be there cook it. Yeah, he played

1178
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 3: twenty games like didn't even think about bringing him back

1179
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 3: after he went down with this mysterious elbow injury, which

1180
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 3: is your favorite injury that took forever to heal John

1181
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 3: Morant's elbow, Brandon Ingram's ankle last year, Frlens Wagner's ankle

1182
00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:29,720
Speaker 3: this year. Whatever Anthony Davis has going on, John Morant,

1183
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 3: he's fooling himself and he fooled me as well. October

1184
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 3: Josh Giddy Special Player. Oh yeah, twenty two points, nine rebounds,

1185
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 3: eight assists, forty eight from the field, forty five from

1186
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 3: three come on, looking worth that contract? He settled into

1187
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:44,919
Speaker 3: a seventeen eight and nine forty five and thirty seven.

1188
00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 3: A lot of losses, whole lot of losses. Brandon Ingram

1189
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 3: fooled me a little bit. Raptors needed a bucket getter,

1190
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,440
Speaker 3: and they got one. Somebody to shoot the ball at

1191
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:56,360
Speaker 3: the end of the shot clocks. He's putting up some

1192
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,719
Speaker 3: decent percentages twenty one to five and three. But I

1193
00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:00,719
Speaker 3: think he's maybe had the least impact of all the

1194
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 3: starters for the Raptors because he gives so much back

1195
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,800
Speaker 3: on the defense event, so he was an All Stars.

1196
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: It wasn't all starts, right.

1197
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:13,200
Speaker 3: Well, he's been pretty solid, yeah, solid, but they're better

1198
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 3: when he's on the bench, which is not good. But

1199
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 3: my number one fooler it's Mikhale Bridges because he's fooled everybody,

1200
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 3: and he fools people into making it into Karl Anthony

1201
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:27,440
Speaker 3: Towns fault. Bridges never gets a single percentage of the

1202
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 3: blame for the New York Knicks.

1203
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: It is always.

1204
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 3: Scapegoating Cat, and Bridges disappears just as often as Kat does.

1205
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,480
Speaker 3: Thirteen games with fewer than ten points, including last night

1206
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,400
Speaker 3: against the Rockets, He's got fifteen games with more than twenty.

1207
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,399
Speaker 3: It feels like there's enough shots for Brunson and then

1208
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 3: one other guy. Sometimes it's Cat, sometimes it's Bridges, sometimes

1209
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 3: it's Og, but it's usually not Bridges. I also think

1210
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 3: that it's kind of an indictment on him that he's

1211
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 3: not an on ball defender for the next Like this

1212
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 3: guy was traded for to really beef up their defense,

1213
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 3: and Landry Shammitt took his spot as the guy who

1214
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 3: guards the ball. And I don't know, maybe it's the smile,

1215
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:08,879
Speaker 3: you know, you don't want to say anything bad about

1216
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:10,800
Speaker 3: Michale Bridges because he's got a beautiful smile and he

1217
00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 3: seems like a gentle guy. But I don't think he's

1218
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:14,760
Speaker 3: been a very good player for the next of this season.

1219
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been average. Yeah, his offense has definitely taken

1220
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:21,479
Speaker 2: a hit. We all talked about Carling, the town's offense

1221
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 2: taking a hit in Mike Brown's system. McGill Burges has

1222
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 2: dropped off significantly, and we all expected a couple of things.

1223
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:32,800
Speaker 2: I expected him coming from Brooklyn. Those attacks from basically

1224
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,960
Speaker 2: the sideline above the break, We're going to be there,

1225
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:37,360
Speaker 2: and the defense was going to be there. He hasn't

1226
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 2: made an all defensive team in a long time. It was,

1227
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 2: you know, four full seasons here where he's not going

1228
00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 2: to make one since twenty one twenty two. That was

1229
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 2: a long time ago. Things things have gone different.

1230
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:49,359
Speaker 1: Now.

1231
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,480
Speaker 2: He'll come through with some key plays like he did

1232
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,359
Speaker 2: against the Pacers last year in the playoffs. He'll come through.

1233
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,280
Speaker 2: It's just not consistent. It's just not consistent.

1234
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 1: But if this goes poorly for the Knicks and whatever

1235
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,439
Speaker 1: that means, you know, like second round loss or whatever,

1236
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 1: like they're gonna have to make changes and the scapegoats

1237
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 1: always cat like Brunston's safe, og probably safe. But if

1238
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 1: it's not Cat, you're moving then it's got to be

1239
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,120
Speaker 1: Michael Bridges. But maybe good luck with that. This guy

1240
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,440
Speaker 1: makes a lot of money. Like it's only going up, up,

1241
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,080
Speaker 1: up right, Like this year it's reasonable, it's like twenty

1242
00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,439
Speaker 1: five million. Then it's up to thirty three, thirty six,

1243
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:27,920
Speaker 1: thirty nine, forty two million, player option in the future

1244
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 1: twenty nine to thirty Like, that's not it's not an

1245
00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:36,120
Speaker 1: easily tradable contract any mean, especially considering what they gave

1246
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 1: up for him. It's yeah, yeah, the draft capital for sure.

1247
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:41,719
Speaker 1: For sure. Yeah, maybe you get a little bit back,

1248
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:43,960
Speaker 1: but not even close to what they gave up to

1249
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: get him.

1250
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 3: He's fifth in minutes this season total minutes. He's taken

1251
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,800
Speaker 3: eighty eight free throws. Wow, how is that possible?

1252
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a good one.

1253
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:51,240
Speaker 1: All fade aways.

1254
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:51,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why.

1255
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:55,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, doesn't really seek out the contact, does he. Okay,

1256
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,120
Speaker 1: that's a good one. Who do you have as a

1257
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 1: player that fooled you?

1258
00:56:58,440 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 2: Evan Mobley fooled me. I thought he was going to

1259
00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 2: take the next step considering he won defensive Player of

1260
00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:04,879
Speaker 2: the year. He was an All Star. He was an

1261
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 2: All NBA player last year, but he wasn't used all

1262
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:11,840
Speaker 2: that much by Kenny Atkinson, just not a ton and

1263
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 2: I thought, okay, here we go. Last year in use

1264
00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 2: his percentage, he was one hundred and fifth in the

1265
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,240
Speaker 2: NBA twenty two point six percent. So there's room to

1266
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:23,440
Speaker 2: grow this year. Is that twenty two point one of

1267
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,280
Speaker 2: guys who played fifteen or more minutes, So he's one

1268
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 2: hundred and twentieth in the NBA. It's just gone down.

1269
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 2: And considering that Darius Garland was going to be out

1270
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 2: to start the season, I thought, this guy is going

1271
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,480
Speaker 2: to have to be relied on what it was. It

1272
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 2: was on Donovan Mitchell. It was on Jared Allen, of

1273
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 2: all people. And there's a reason they traded Darius Garland

1274
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 2: for James Harden is because they don't think they can

1275
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,959
Speaker 2: rely on Evan Mobley a lot. And so this coming

1276
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 2: off season is going to be really really interesting. Whenever

1277
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 2: they get eliminated from the playoffs, can they go forward

1278
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 2: with both Mobley and Jared Allen. It's highly unlikely they

1279
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 2: were able to get rid of Darius Garland because they

1280
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 2: saw that they needed something else. They wanted to go

1281
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 2: for it right here, right now and going forward. If

1282
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,040
Speaker 2: Jared Allen and Mobley don't succeed in the playoffs, which

1283
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 2: is probably not going to happen, they got to make

1284
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 2: a decision one way or the other. And yeah, it

1285
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 2: was odd. It was odd because Mobley had He wasn't

1286
00:58:19,520 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 2: even using in clutch time last year and that has

1287
00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:26,919
Speaker 2: gone up a little bit. But does anybody really rely

1288
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 2: or think that they can rely on on Evan Mobley,

1289
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:31,560
Speaker 2: Like when you watch the game, you don't think you

1290
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 2: can rely on them. He just there's just so many

1291
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 2: empty points, possessions. They don't go through them enough. But

1292
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 2: if he's the five, it might be different. I mean,

1293
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 2: they got to decide him and Allen. But yeah, the

1294
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 2: efficiency is down, everything is down. So this off sne

1295
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 2: is going to be interesting for them.

1296
00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 1: Is there good picks? Mckail bridges Evan Mobley. I'm going

1297
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 1: to go a tear down, maybe even further, but I'm

1298
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,600
Speaker 1: going with an awards prediction that I got completely wrong.

1299
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:56,240
Speaker 1: I picked Khalil where to win six Man of the Year.

1300
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:00,040
Speaker 1: He was coming off the bench in the preseason. I

1301
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 1: got fooled.

1302
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 2: Man.

1303
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:02,360
Speaker 1: I was like look at this guy. He's everaging like

1304
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,680
Speaker 1: twenty and eleven off the bench. He's hitting threes now,

1305
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,640
Speaker 1: He's like added a little bit of a three point

1306
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 1: shot to his game here instead, this guy has had

1307
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:16,360
Speaker 1: one of the most wildly unpredictable seasons because he struggled

1308
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,720
Speaker 1: to carve out a consistent spot in in Spolstra's rotation.

1309
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 1: I know some Heat fans were very upset with Eric Spolstrom.

1310
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 1: What are you doing with this guy? Why is he

1311
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,920
Speaker 1: like playing three minutes in some games? Are you starting him?

1312
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: Are you not? He's logged fewer than twenty minutes in

1313
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 1: a game twenty seven times this season. It's like nothing

1314
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:39,560
Speaker 1: to do with health, Like just like matchups and Spolster

1315
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: not trusting him. He has had a lot of games

1316
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,920
Speaker 1: where he gets that first stint and his spode is

1317
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:46,040
Speaker 1: not like what he sees. You don't see a whole

1318
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 1: lot of khalil wear for the rest of the game.

1319
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 1: But here's a crazy stat this by way of the

1320
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 1: Miami Herald. The Heat are twenty three and two this season.

1321
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:59,920
Speaker 1: When khalil Ware posts a positive plus minus, so the opposites,

1322
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 1: that is, when he's in the negative, they have a

1323
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 1: very bad record twelve and thirty two. He had two

1324
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:07,400
Speaker 1: games where he's been a you know, a perfect zero

1325
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 1: in the plus minus box score. But that sort of

1326
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:12,959
Speaker 1: jumped out to me. Now some people make the case

1327
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:17,000
Speaker 1: the argument Spolstra's he's doing the tough love approach with

1328
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 1: Khalil Ware, who's only in a second year here, Like

1329
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,480
Speaker 1: he's a twenty one year old center. So Spoe knows

1330
01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 1: how important he is to the team's success, but he's

1331
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 1: like trying to keep him accountable. You got to earn

1332
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,320
Speaker 1: these minutes. That's one side. The other side, like I

1333
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,920
Speaker 1: mentioned there, is like Spolster, what are you doing, Like

1334
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 1: you're not giving this guy enough room to go out there, grow,

1335
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,520
Speaker 1: make mistakes and sort of just take your lumps here.

1336
01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 1: I don't know which side you guys fall on, maybe

1337
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,600
Speaker 1: somewhere in the middle. But the truth is that he'd

1338
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,400
Speaker 1: have been outscored when Ware's been out there and Bam

1339
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:52,320
Speaker 1: has been off the court. So overall, even though like

1340
01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 1: that weird plus minus I gave you, when he plays

1341
01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 1: well or is a positive, they win, and otherwise, you know,

1342
01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: when he's out there with Bam or without Bam, they're

1343
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 1: beginning outscored, Like by four point four points per one

1344
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 1: hundred possession, So and just a weird, weird season. I

1345
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,040
Speaker 1: thought maybe this guy would be one of the rare

1346
01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 1: bigs to win a six Man of the Year, but

1347
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:10,680
Speaker 1: instead it's been.

1348
01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:11,080
Speaker 2: Up and down.

1349
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's Christian would like super talented. The

1350
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,080
Speaker 3: highlights are amazing, like he looks great, but just like

1351
01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 3: on a game to game possession possession basis, he's not

1352
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 3: always locked in. I agree, I agree, and I think

1353
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 3: that's part of the reason Spolstra has a short leash

1354
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 3: with him. Yep, So can't he get consistency. Maybe he's

1355
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 3: only twenty one, like he's done a lot of time

1356
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 3: going forward, but at this point he just doesn't scream

1357
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 3: like literally heat culture to me, where he's going to

1358
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 3: be giving you exactly what you need at exactly every

1359
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 3: moment of the game.

1360
01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, totally agree. I don't know if we're doing

1361
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 2: April fools based on twenty four to twenty five season,

1362
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:48,400
Speaker 2: but I was April fooled by kloe Ware in the

1363
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 2: twenty four to twenty five season. I saw him winning

1364
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year after his first A little run

1365
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 2: there when he was given the leash by Spolstra. He

1366
01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:00,840
Speaker 2: was just hey, it's yours, go go start, and now

1367
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,240
Speaker 2: coming off the bench, you expect him maybe to be driven,

1368
01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 2: but yeah, the defense isn't isn't all there, no, and.

1369
01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 1: It should be because like you look at him, you

1370
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:10,840
Speaker 1: catch him on the right night, You're like, damn, this

1371
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 1: guy is like, this is what the future of that

1372
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 1: position looks like, right, A seven footer that should be

1373
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:18,600
Speaker 1: able to like or is athletic and give you some

1374
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 1: defensive force and then can even like step outside and

1375
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 1: hit a shot from deep. Like again, it's not a

1376
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: bad looking three point shot, but yeah, you know, spoll again,

1377
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:29,400
Speaker 1: I think it's this tough love thing and you don't

1378
01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: want to hear a Christian would comparison. You know. It's

1379
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 1: like some people compared it to even Hassan white Side.

1380
01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's like you gotta locke in my man.

1381
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 1: I was convinced I was fooled. And he's young, and

1382
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 1: maybe that'll turn out to be a aby that'll be

1383
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 1: right down down the line. Maybe there's a six Man

1384
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,600

Speaker 1: on a couch, you know. It's like a pretty simple shoot, right,

1422
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 1: And they start off with like a puppy, and so

1423
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 1: he's holding the puppy and they have him like reading

01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:10,440
Speaker 1: a vulture. Then they bring in an albino python and

1433

1438
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,320

01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:37,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't remember.

1444
01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't remember that either. I'll try and I remember

Speaker 1: if I can, if I can find it again. Great stuff.

1447
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,760
Speaker 1: Good answers on teams and players that fool you, Like

1448
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,280
Speaker 1: I said, let us know in the stream, team, let

1449
01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 1: us know in the comments. What about you? What'd you

1450
01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 1: get wrong?

1451
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 3: Was it April Fool's Day when the hornets had, like

1452
01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 3: I don't know, they had a dining saw. It looked

1453
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 3: like it was just posts and then it moved and

1454
01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 3: then like a lamello punched it in the face. I

1455
01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 3: don't know, just a classic prank might have been a

1456
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:10,760
Speaker 3: classic the best fools you guys pulled on me. It

1457
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:14,640
Speaker 3: wasn't April Fools. But for whatever reason, this was in

1458
01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:18,080
Speaker 3: Starter's era. I was doing a blind cereal taste test. Okay,

1459
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:21,240
Speaker 3: like maybe for whatever reason, I think it was, Kyle

1460
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 3: O'Quinn was able to like nail all of these cereals

1461
01:06:24,040 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 3: when he would taste them.

1462
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 2: So I try to do it.

1463
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:27,320
Speaker 4: I was like, great, I love to do this.

1464
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:27,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1465
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 4: He gave me like four cereals and the.

1466
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 3: Last one was carrots and milks.

1467
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 4: I feel like that was a task call.

1468
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 1: This man loves a carrot cat.

1469
01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:40,959
Speaker 4: This guy can't stop with a carrot prank. But easy

1470
01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,920
Speaker 4: to identify the carrot taste.

1471
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, quite different than cheerio or something. Carrots and milk

1472
01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:48,280
Speaker 1: is disgusting.

1473
01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:49,720
Speaker 4: I don't know why you guys put them in milk.

1474
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:50,320

01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:02,200
Speaker 1: had a play apartment.

1480
01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 2: It rings a bell for sure. Yeah.

1481
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:06,680
Speaker 3: I remember of debating whether or not to put milk,

1482
01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:08,720
Speaker 3: and we're like, I think I was like, we got

Speaker 1: four guys that are m VP front runners, they're winning

1506
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 1: a lot of these. It's making my life easy when

1507
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,800
Speaker 1: it comes to updating the little logo graphic got them

1508
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,559
Speaker 1: all save now in my template, we.

1509
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:42,920
Speaker 4: Got what like, uh five to six games left for

1510
01:08:43,000 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 4: these teams.

1511
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:47,040
Speaker 3: We're gonna get some weirdo's playing, especially like on these

1512
01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 3: teams that aren't trying to win here at the end.

1513
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 3: Who's a player that you think will get a random

1514
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 3: whoe boy in the last weekend?

1515
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:57,400
Speaker 1: Leonard Miller, I'm definitely giving one too. There we go

1516
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:03,000
Speaker 1: Remualer triple double. He's getting closer and closer the other night.

1517
01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:05,840
Speaker 4: He's the perfect player to get a random wow bloy.

1518
01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:08,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, he's not a ben Uzo, but he is

1519
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:10,240
Speaker 2: a perfect player. Like he is that type of player.

1520
01:09:10,320 --> 01:09:14,280
Speaker 2: We do have a question actually probably get to tomorrow

1521
01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 2: in a mail bag segment about whether or not you

1522
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:21,280
Speaker 2: should give out a whow boy to multiple or give

1523
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,600
Speaker 2: out multiple who boys stat line of the night to

1524
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:25,519
Speaker 2: the same player in the playoffs, Whether or not. It

1525
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:29,320
Speaker 2: just should be one whoa boy for Jokic or whoever.

1526
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:31,439
Speaker 1: I don't even Well, first off, I don't do it

1527
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:35,040
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Oh well, but you're saying if I

1528
01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 1: did that was Yeah, you're saying, if I did that,

1529
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:39,840
Speaker 1: somebody gets it, they're done.

1530
01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:41,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, in.

1531
01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:45,639
Speaker 1: Interesting angle. But my concern will be, Okay, I'll give

1532
01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:47,639
Speaker 1: it to Yo Kisch when he goes for twenty five,

1533
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 1: twenty two and nineteen in game two of the first round,

1534
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 1: and then flash forward second round he goes for thirty five,

1535
01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:58,560
Speaker 1: twenty eight and whatever twenty two, and I'm gonna be

1536
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:00,720
Speaker 1: like not giving it to him, and then people are
