WEBVTT - OKC's Wild Comeback, Ja and Jimmy Go Down, Is It a Wrap for the Nuggets? 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:04.960 On this episode of the Heat Check, Welcome Back. It's 0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:08.600 hotter than a Miami sidewalk in July. Right now, here's 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:12.600 what we're gonna talk about, John Morant. Every time something 0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:15.440 good goes down in Memphis, Ja Mare gets hurt o 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:18.599 case he comes back down twenty nine. They were down 0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:21.560 twenty six at halftime. Oh, the Rockets and the Warriors 0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:23.400 are in a full blown rock fight. I have to 0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:26.239 maybe just maybe recamp my take on Jalen Green, but 0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:28.280 I don't think I'm ready yet. Also, Jimmy Butler's got 0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:31.320 a deep gluten bruise pause. He's questionable for Game three. 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:35.200 Calves carved up the heat like a Sunday roast. Nick 0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:37.560 sneak past the Pistons to take a two to one 0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:41.159 series lead. Detroit ain't going down easy. Clippers now up 0:00:41.159 --> 0:00:43.120 to to one on the Nuggets, and it's getting very 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.520 spicy in the West. Plus we've got some League White 0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:50.040 updates that'll make your head spin. So much to unpack. 0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:53.880 It's twelve forty am on the East Coast, lots of 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:59.080 narratives to dissect. Wyatt Amanda Combo producer day, you know 0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:01.360 what time it is? That motherfucker beat the. 0:01:01.360 --> 0:01:07.920 Ship Hereriana your you're listening to the Hottest, the Hottest. 0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:11.039 It'd be a podcast out here. I said what I said, 0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:14.520 it's the check. 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:20.319 It's just a quitting Oh my goodness. So the Clipper 0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:28.560 Nugget game was on simultaneously as the OKAC and Memphis game. 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:30.920 And I don't know if you guys saw game one 0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:33.679 of the OKAC game where they smacked the Memphis Grizzlies 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:36.679 by fifty or a game two where we thought maybe 0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:40.479 Memphis would get a little razzley dazzly but they lost 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:44.200 by twenty. Okay, so I saw, Oh, it looks like 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.680 a little bit of a Memphis bounce back game. Who knows. 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.400 But the real game that we're all trying to watch 0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:54.320 is the Clippers versus the Nuggets. That's the best one 0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.720 pretty much of the entire first round. So I tuned 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.800 over there and it was back to back to it 0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:02.520 was Nick's baby, and then it was Okay, see baby, 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.000 and then it was and there was some overlap. Right, 0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:10.000 So I'm watching I'm watching the Clips game in LA which, 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.960 by the way, Steve Bamber's a wild boy. He gave 0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:16.640 everyone in the local section in the in the like 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:20.120 local fan section that they took the wall that they 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:23.720 call it. He gave them all horses. He gave them 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:26.960 all horses for their head. They were full. I don't 0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:30.680 even know how you like anyway it worked, But I 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:34.120 get a text and it's like, hey, what happened to Jaw? 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:37.280 And I was like, oh man, let me go see 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:41.280 what this is about Jahn Morant. At this point, Grizzlies 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:45.640 up twenty four points. Ja Morant takes it out in transition, 0:02:45.720 --> 0:02:48.360 which we know he loves to do. Loud dort the 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:52.160 dorture chamber, slightly slipping, tries to go up to contest, 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.440 undercuts Jaw in the legs. Jaw puts his hands down 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:59.360 to try to catch his fall, direct shot to the 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:04.400 hip pop Night Night Sleep Mask. And at that point, 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:08.600 like I said, I was like, Okay, well I'm gonna 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:11.160 I'm gonna turn back to this Clipper game again. But 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:14.880 then the Clippers now were up twenty and so I'm like, 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:19.960 all right, well, Grizzlies are now up nine. Team's obviously 0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:23.119 not very good without Jaw, despite what the critics say. 0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.320 And I'm like, I think the thunder my fuck around 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:29.080 and win this game, and boy, oh boy, won't you 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.519 know it, won't you know it? It was the Alex 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:36.520 Carusoe game. Man was putting them in their seat belts 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:39.880 and then in their basinet and putting the pacifier in 0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:46.960 their mouth. Grizzlies just a heartbreaker in Memphis. Okase outscored 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:51.520 Memphis sixty three to thirty one in the second half. 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:57.480 Shay had thirty j Dubb had twenty four, Chet Holmgren 0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:01.800 had five threes. Swap swat sweat when he needed it. 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:04.520 Sky Pippen junior ball a little bit twenty three points. 0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:07.400 Jum Ran at only fifteen. So yeah, it looks like 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.720 it's night night. I just don't know how you really 0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:14.000 emotionally come back from being up twenty nine points, your star, 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:18.279 your franchise player going down in the playoffs with a 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:22.080 big injury again for like the fifth straight time, and 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:24.600 they rally back and beat you when you think you 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:29.040 can maybe still a game at the crib tough scene. Okay, 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:33.520 see probably now gets the sweep, if not a gentleman's sweep, 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:37.000 and they have a whole week to recover, lick their 0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:41.440 wounds from that fighting performance in Game three, and they 0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:46.120 get to see the winner of this Minnesota Lakers series 0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:49.360 and probably beat the shit out of them as well. 0:04:49.520 --> 0:04:53.000 Moving on, Moving on, that was a spicy one where 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:57.240 the it really got spicy. We have to dive in 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:00.359 to this chapter of this heated playoff sagabi between the 0:05:00.440 --> 0:05:05.040 Rockets and the Warriors. So I was kind of rude 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.640 to Jalen Green last episode. I said he made so 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:11.640 he did make some boneheaded fucking plays. I'm standing ten 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:13.680 toes down on that. But I said he wasn't a 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:16.640 winning player, and I still don't think he is. But boy, 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:20.320 oh boy, after a fucking shaky ass game where he 0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:25.800 had seven points three for fifteen shooting, Jalen Green thirty 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:30.680 eight points eight for eighteen from three, I said, these 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.599 boys don't have any offensive engines and he was room roomen. 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:39.520 He was rooming. He had fifteen in the third quarter alone. 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.280 I gotta give him his props. He's the youngest guard 0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:45.120 in NBA history to have eight or more threes in 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:48.840 a playoff game. So he bawled shng Goon did his 0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:53.160 goddamn thing. But really, what was the main storyline besides 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.080 the Warriors losing to the Rockets in a way that 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:59.360 made the Warriors look very pedestrian, which they do tend 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.839 to do without Jimmy Butler is the Jimmy Butler suffered 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:06.120 what was originally considered a pelvic contusion, had a mid 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.960 air collision with Arman Thompson. A lot of people said 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.159 that it was dirty. A lot of people said that 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.800 Arman Thompson was dirty. A lot of people said Draymond 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.560 Green was dirty by pushing Amen Thompson. A lot of 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.720 accusations going on out there. Jimmy played just under eight minutes, 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:23.640 had three points before leaving the game. And now we 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:30.320 know it is a deep glute bruise, deep glute contusion. Anyway, 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.600 he may not play Game three, which is I'm going 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:39.400 to say, a major setback for the Warriors. Also, Brandon Pajemski, 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:43.760 he was dealing with the stomach ailment. He had no 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:48.120 points in fourteen minutes after scoring fourteen points in game one. 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.240 Kind of a full circle moment and with Jimmy Butler out. 0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:56.520 DMPCD is his nickname, Jonathan Kaminga. He came into the game, 0:06:56.800 --> 0:07:00.599 got some minutes and he struggled. He looks like remember 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:03.240 Jonathan Minga said he was gonna get paid max money. 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:08.480 He made no significant impact. Steph Curry was getting locked up. 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.240 He had twenty. He had relentless defense. They were putting 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:15.120 bodies on them, bodies on the bodies on him. Rockets 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:20.320 forced fifteen turnovers. Tarry Easton was nasty. He had fourteen 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:22.760 points off the bench and it was chippy. Let's just 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:24.760 be honest. These two teams kind of don't like each other. 0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.640 There were a bunch of physical confrontations and nine of them. 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.800 Jalen Green had a flagrant one for elbowing and Draymond 0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:34.600 in the face Tarry Easton through a towel at Pat Spencer. 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:41.040 Does anyone know who Spencers? Okay? Following a Fred van Fleet, 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:44.640 Steele and a Jalen Green layup, Van Fleet and Draymond 0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:49.240 had a heated exchange leading to a scuffle Draymond Green. 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:52.120 These are all separate incidents. Draymond Green received a tech 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.120 for shoving Opera and Shangoon during the game. In total, 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:59.160 the game had six technical fouls, one frank flagrant foul, 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.160 very tense atmosphere. They both just want a foul, foul foul. 0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:07.160 Rockets head coach Ime Udoka was pumped. He was like, 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:10.160 that's fucking what we do. He said, that's who we are, 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:13.440 that's our identity. For the most part. We understand that 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:15.960 they let us play both teams. It's in our favorite Yeah. 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:19.760 When you're allowed to just punch and just elbow and 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:23.120 just like do anything you want out there. Yeah, it's 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:27.840 like the Warriors are really built for that anyway. Saturday 0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:32.080 Game three, Chase Center, Jimmy Butler probably not available. Are 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.280 the Warriors gonna be able to adjust to this physical 0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:37.000 defense without their co star who's pretty much the only 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:38.880 reason the Warriors are in the playoffs right now? And 0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:43.960 can the Rockets get a game at Chase? Very fucking interesting? 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:48.800 All right, moving forward, we gotta do some roasting. We 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.800 gotta put a man on the hubachi. I didn't put 0:08:51.840 --> 0:08:54.840 him on the hubachi. I didn't. I didn't put him 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.599 on the hubachi. Do you know who are about to 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.760 put on the hibachi? It's a great question. We'll tell 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:04.680 you right after this break and a little word from 0:09:04.720 --> 0:09:11.240 our sponsors. Hey, and we're back. We're talking about putting 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:14.120 somebody on the hibachi, on the hot plate, putting him 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:19.000 on the gas foreman grill. That's Tyler Hero, Tyler Hero, 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:23.000 He's not looking good right now. Sometimes you wonder whether 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.560 the Portland Trailblazers should have put Tyler Hero in the 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:28.160 trade and taken him back because he's such a bucket, 0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:31.840 and sometimes the offense looks so anemic. Then sometimes you 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.280 see this and you say, goodness, gracious, I'm glad we 0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.760 don't have him on our team. Calves taking belt to 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.800 ass on the Miami Heat. A lot of people were 0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.760 surprised at game two was even as close as it was. 0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.120 Calves won by nine, but at one point it was 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:49.200 a two point game, round four four minutes left. You know, 0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:53.200 there's always like a random, random team and it just 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:55.480 jumps up and gets a game against the team that 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.200 they are far outmatched against. Donovan Mitchell, though, decides he's 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.160 gonna go crazy. He's gonna put the Cape on his back. 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:05.199 He gets ten points in the last two minutes. Oh 0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:08.280 ten points in two minutes. That's Reggie Miller right there. 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:11.360 But after the game, this is when, well, Tyler heroes 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:14.080 kind of on the hibachi all night, and this is why. 0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:16.920 So they asked Darius Garland, the other garf for the 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.360 Cleveland Cavaliers, hey, how do you finish the heat off? 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.320 And he said, playing his day, you pick on Tyler Hero. 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.240 You take care of the ball, don't play in tight 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:29.880 spaces and pick on their weak defenders. Yikes, that is 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.520 such a brutal thing to say, calling a grown man 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:35.240 out by name. We pick on Tyler Hero, That's what 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.720 we do. But here's the thing. Tyler Hero was already 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:40.480 getting cooked all game long. He was already getting put 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.679 He had grill marks on him because the calves were 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.400 killing him. Hero's always been a defensive liability and they've 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:50.920 done nothing to fix it. He's not gonna be anybody else. 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:53.679 And let's be honest, every time there's a star in play, 0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:57.839 Miami's like, hey you want Tyler Hero. Hey we got 0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:01.600 Tyler huro Kentucky Guard Tyler he pat Rileyes do you want? 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:03.720 Do you want? Do you want me to pep? Were like, no, no, 0:11:03.800 --> 0:11:07.120 I don't make it make sense, Miami. Let's talk about 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:10.920 his stats. Tyler Hero dead last in the NBA in 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:15.839 defensive wind shares this season. He's literally statistically the worst 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:19.480 defensive starting player in the league. Statline offensive league game 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.040 two solid thirty three, six' five plus one net, rating no, 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:27.000 blocks no, steals getting straight. Cooked and then you look 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.120 At Duncan, robinson who is probably just happy to be getting. 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.120 Paid he was A d three, player goes To, michigan 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:36.439 finds his way out of the, heat shoots some nice, 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:39.200 threes gets him to the. Finals all of a, sudden 0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:43.320 he gets a huge bag and he disappears. Anyway duncan's 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:46.360 ranked one hundred and seventy seventh in defensive wind, shares 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:51.920 just above guys Like Kyle, Kuzma Trey, Young DeAngelo, russell 0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:58.520 but Below Zach lavine And Kelly Oubre game two three 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:01.160 point zero boards won a six in twelve. Minutes SO 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.040 i just don't think you can really. DO i, mean 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.360 the fact That cleveland's up to two zero is not a. 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:08.840 Surprise the fact that the heater in the playoffs is a. 0:12:08.880 --> 0:12:12.280 Surprise And Darius garland exposed what we all know is 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:15.160 that the easiest game plan in THE nba is target 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:19.920 those weak gas perimeter, defenders those little last. Guards Even Davion, 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:23.000 mitchell who's not known to be a flame thrower but 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.400 is also supposed to be a lockdown, defender ranked one 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:29.560 hundred and thirty fifth in defensive win. Shares the stat 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:33.079 breakdown backs it. Up cleveland had nearly twice as many 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:37.200 blocks and steals As. Miami they forced thirteen, turnovers And 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:40.360 miami shot fifty two percent from the, field thirty six 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:43.920 percent from, three seventy five percent from the free throw, 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:48.080 line and they still. Lost and, meanwhile is this stat? 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:53.040 Real cleveland shot forty for eighty eight from three because 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:56.240 The guards are just chilling over two games and The 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.560 guards just simply will not close, out AND i think 0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:00.720 the game is just a little two fast for, Them 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:04.280 and Even zachlow said. It, listen they're passing the ball too. 0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:06.400 Faster they don't even know where the ball is the 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:10.120 three steps. Behind So miami might steal a game, maybe 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:15.800 but in, general this team is in. Trouble, trouble, Trouble, 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:20.280 Okay so we gotta talk about This knick, series The 0:13:20.360 --> 0:13:24.160 Rock fight. Series final Score nicks one to, Eighteen pistons one, 0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:29.000 sixteen and like the last two, minutes, drunk drunk as fucking, 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:32.280 hell there Were there was a free throw shot because 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:37.080 of a clock. ERROR i don't EVEN i was watching 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.560 AND i couldn't figure out how the math was adding. 0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.559 Up how did they scop right? THERE i literally didn't 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:48.240 see anyone change. Possessions what? Happened knicks lead to one 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:53.000 this series is officially hot and. Bothered they get a 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:56.839 massive road win In. Detroit The, pistons of, course had their. 0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:01.679 Chances Karl Anthony towns finally did. Something game Three nicks, 0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:05.079 Early game Three nicks. Late SO i do want to 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:08.640 talk a little bit About Tobias harris talking, shit because 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:10.960 this playoffs does feel like there's a lot of off 0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:15.440 the court extracurriculars going. On So detroit goes INTO msg 0:14:15.480 --> 0:14:17.320 and they steal a, game which we did not expect 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:20.600 them to. Do but the real, ones no Right game 0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:23.240 one probably should have been there. Too if it wasn't 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:26.840 for that twenty one to zero, run that explosion, pause 0:14:27.360 --> 0:14:30.080 The pistons probably up to one right. Now and just 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:32.920 Before game, three they're, like, Hey Tobias, harris what's different 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.480 about this Year's knicks team from last?

Lot, yeah thirty thirty 0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.880 nine and. Seven those points came. Late those points came 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:29.240 in the last three. Minutes four of the Five knick 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:32.880 starters had twenty plus. Points pistons hit forty three percent 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:36.280 from three and they still. Lost, Man Tobias, harris and 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.880 you said The knicks were, soft and then you go 0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:43.600 out and you melt in the, sun you drop casual 0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:47.320 two of nine shooting with a, five six and zero stat. 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:51.600 Line oh, baby that is The philadelphia seventy six, Ers Tobias, 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:56.760 harris not The Detroit, Pistons Tobias.

Fight they want to fight. 0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:06.080 Everybody and speaking of, which there was a melee in 0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:08.760 the middle of the game Where Carl Anthony towns is 0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:10.840 fighting With Paul, reid WHO i didn't even know was 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:13.360 on The, knicks And Carl Anthony towns is getting a 0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.640 little puff in his chest out And i'm, LIKE i 0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.160 forgot what's going on With Isaiah, stewart the guy WHO 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:22.240 i don't know was ready to Kill Lebron james bleeding 0:16:22.280 --> 0:16:25.280 down his. Face turns Out Isaiah stewart's not playing in the. 0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:28.680 Game Isaiah stewart is his street. Clothes and the cameraman 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:31.800 smart must have been a real BIG nba fan because 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:35.360 he immediately panned To Isaiah, stewart And Isiah stewart was, 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:40.760 like he looks so. Sad he just wanted to be 0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:42.800 in the.

Fighting this is just a long ass, Post. 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:23.840 WILBARTON i thought he was one of the more underrated 0:19:23.840 --> 0:19:25.920 players in the. League Damian lillard loved playing with. Them 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:27.440 i'm happy you got to go out on his own 0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:30.280 terms and his good, Spirits but, HONESTLY i Thought wilbarton 0:19:30.359 --> 0:19:33.080 was already. Retired another piece of. News i'm a little 0:19:33.080 --> 0:19:37.000 perplexed about The. Bucks they are now down to zero 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.800 on a team that has made many bad roster, decisions 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.320 but they just locked up THEIR gm to a multi 0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:46.160 year contract. Extension i'm not saying he should have been 0:19:46.240 --> 0:19:48.800 fired or should be, fired BUT i am saying right, 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:50.840 now probably not the best time to extend. Him you 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:53.159 know What i'm, Saying because if you can't win With 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:56.280 jannis And, dame and you traded away the guy who 0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:58.600 wanted to stay his entire career there And Drew, holliday 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:01.600 who was the reason you got the first, ring All 0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:05.359 i'm gonna say is probably shouldn't be. Extended probably shouldn't be. 0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:08.040 Extended this team's just not good. Enough trading For Kyle 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:10.720 kuzma didn't make no damn. Sense Aj green doesn't make. 0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:14.440 Sense Torrian prince doesn't really make. Sense Kevin Porter junior 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.679 doesn't make. Sense this is not a championship. Roster this 0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:19.600 is just barely a six seed, roster just a very weird. 0:20:19.600 --> 0:20:23.480 Decision Scott, perry LIKE i, said is the NEW gm 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.360 of The Sacramento. Kings he has identified the biggest issue 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:29.800 facing The kings in the. Offseason you're gonna love this. 0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:33.920 One it's finding a point. Guard despite the fact that 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:37.919 this team has drafted six guards in the past seven 0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:42.280 years and had two franchise caliber point guards in Diarreon 0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:46.600 fox And Tyrese, haliburton he, says it's no secret we 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:49.560 need a true point guard with the current mixture of, 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.439 players and in my, opinion we need more length than 0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:55.240 athleticism along the front line if we want to elevate this. Group, 0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:59.439 wolf you know what that, means probably some bonus is 0:20:59.440 --> 0:21:02.639 gonna be. Traded he's not a true, center he doesn't 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:05.800 protect the. Room the man won't shoot threes anymore nearly 0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:07.159 as much as he did in the beginning of his. 0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.280 Career he's gotten better in the last season or. So 0:21:09.520 --> 0:21:12.240 but he is not long and he is not. Athletic 0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:15.119 he is, great but he is neither of those. Things 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:20.960 so maybe they give the bag To Kyrie. Irving maybe 0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:27.000 they give the bag To. Harden maybe they. LANGUISH i don't, 0:21:27.040 --> 0:21:31.560 know maybe they get Tyas jones Or Malcolm. Brock something 0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:35.560 has to change, here because that's just a wild fucking, 0:21:35.640 --> 0:21:39.320 segment a wild fucking. Statement late breaking. News we've got 0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:41.280 a huge upset in The Defensive player of The year 0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:46.399 Race Draymond.
