Speaker 1: for the month of November. But first we start with

19
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: some sad news. Lenny Wilkins, one of the true legends

20
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: of the game, died on Sunday. The eighty eight year

21
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: old Wilkins grew up in Brooklyn. He played for Saint

22
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 1: Louis Cleveland, Portland, and then coached six different franchises during

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: his thirty two seasons on the sidelines. This guy was

24
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: named to the NBA's fiftieth Anniversary Team in ninety six,

25
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: to the seventy fifth Anniversary team in twenty twenty one,

26
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: and was also honored as a Top ten and Top

27
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: fifteen coach as part of those anniversary celebrations. But Lenny

28
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: Wilkins gone at eighty eight. But what a true basketball lifer.

29
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, he touched so many things in his basketball life,

30
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 2: and he was that settling coach I found over his years.

31
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: Obviously helped Seattle win that championship. Then in Toronto when

32
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: a lot of people didn't want to be in Toronto

33
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 2: and things weren't going right, he comes in and helps

34
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 2: them win their only playoff round in the first twenty

35
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: years of their franchise. He was just that guy to

36
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 2: settle everything down and help them. Hopefully, in honor of Seattle,

37
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: they get that franchise back for the name of Lenny Wilkins,

38
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 2: because he was Seattle basketball for a long time.

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, Lenny Wilkins, to me is a guy I learned

40
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 3: about through basketball cards and everything. You would find out

41
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 3: was kind of unbelievable, Like he led the NBA in

42
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 3: wins as a coach for a long time, and then

43
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 3: you go back and you're like, wait a second, he.

44
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: Was a Hall of Fame player as well.

45
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 3: Wait a second, he was a player coach for multiple seasons,

46
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 3: and I looked it up. He never led his team

47
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 3: in minutes when he was the player coach, which I

48
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 3: think is a lot of integrity. Wow, play yourself the most.

49
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 3: But yeah, in the Hall of Fame as both a

50
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 3: player and a coach. And pretty amazing career for Lenny Wilkins. Yeah,

51
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 3: nine time All Star, he was the seventy one All

52
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 3: Star Game MVP. And then all the coaching. He has

53
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 3: over thirteen hundred wins. I think he's third all time

54
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 3: when it comes to regular season coaching wins. Popovich, Don

55
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 3: Nelson and then Lenny Wilkins. And yeah, it was pretty

56
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 3: cool that he was like one of the last player coaches.

57
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 3: I think Dave Cowens did it too, but there's something

58
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 3: awesome about that. I'll do both. Yeah, you get two paychecks.

59
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 3: Oh probably not definitely not back then. Yeah, but this

60
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 3: I also feel.

61
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 1: Like for a guy that's been around forever, was around forever,

62
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 1: Like I can't remember anyone having an ill thing to

63
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: say about Lenny Wilkins. And you hear all like the

64
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: like the support coming out obviously after his passing, like

65
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: Steve kursaying, just like the most thing about him is

66
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: like his dignity and he had that quiet confidence. But

67
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: he was just well liked by everyone. It felt like,

68
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: both as a player and as a coach.

69
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, as I mentioned that, that settling feel for a

70
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 2: guy to be on your bench, that's what he was.

71
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: Brought everybody together, never got under people's skin. It sure

72
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 2: felt like.

73
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, we also lost another legend in our world this weekend.

74
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,160

92
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 3: the first time. And you know, my adult life is

93
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 3: what it feels like.

00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: shared in or tweeted in twenty thirteen that said, pretty

96
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: happy to find out that when you google NBA dogs,

97
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: Yams is the first image result. I've checked. Unfortunately, Yams

98
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: is not still the first image result for NBA dogs.

99
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: It's a lot of Christian and Scooby for being honest.

100
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: That's pretty amazing. At a certain point, Ams was so

101
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: rest in peace.

102
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a there's a photo of he wearing a

103
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 4: bulls hat.

104
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: Is that why?

105
00:04:58,760 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

106
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: So I know she was happy to see the bulls

107
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 3: doing so well. This beginning good all the time.

108
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: You know, Well, we had some wedgies this weekend. Let's

109
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: get the spirits back up in here. Number nine and

110
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 1: number ten over the weekend Friday night, Nick Claxton stick

111
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 1: at Claxton. We're calling him on this one getting his

112
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: hand in there on the offensive rebound attempt. A lot

113
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: of bodies in there, but I think it really is

114
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: Clacton Claxton jamming it in there. So that was number

115
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: nine NBA Cup game. And then this one controversial. Oh boy,

116
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: Jeremy Grid he got the offensive vowel call and then

117
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: travel let's be honest, and then sticks it and we're like,

118
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: should we count it? Should we not? It didn't result

119
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: in free throws, it didn't result in the jump ball.

120
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: It fouled him out of the game. We put it

121
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: to a poll on Twitter, like seventy percent of the people.

122
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 2: Said, you got to count that. What else are they

123
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 2: going to say? We got to see that? Hey, every

124
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: Weggie is a snowflake. That travel thing that he turned

125
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: and we've never seen that before. He's raking with the ball,

126
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 2: he's playing with it in his hands and shoves it

127
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 2: in there. Never seen before, Like come on continuation, it's ah, yeah, okay, Reggie, Yeah,

128
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 2: why not.

129
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: I have counted? Who cares? We're ugh to ten? He

130
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: love to see it, don't you. All right, let's get

131
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: into NBA weekend winners and losers. TK, We're gonna start

132
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 1: with you We'll do a couple rounds of winners eventually

133
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: make our way to losers.

134
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:16,919
Speaker 2: What do you got winner of the weekend?

135
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 3: The first place Detroit Pistons smack the nets on Friday,

136
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: won a nail bier against the seventy six ers on Sunday,

137
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 3: And if I'm being honest, I would have given whichever

138
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 3: team won a winner of the weekend. Oh that one,

139
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 3: But it was the Pistons who pulled it off. Six

140
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 3: straight wins for them, this is their best ten game

141
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: start since the five six season. It was yet another

142
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 3: Caid Cunningham takeover in this one. Two points in the

143
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 3: first half, just one of nine shooting, though I do

144
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 3: think he was playing a pretty solid floor game, getting

145
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 3: off the ball quickly with the blitzes that the Sixers

146
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 3: were thrown at him.

147
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: But Caid caught fire.

148
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 3: In the second half twenty four after halftime, abed seventeen

149
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 3: in the third quarter really dragged the Pistons back into

150
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,559
Speaker 3: the game. He scored five of the last seven points

151
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,280
Speaker 3: for Detroit and assisted on the other two. Had the

152
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 3: huge dunk where he just leaves Kelly Ubre in his

153
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 3: dust and throws it down over Andre Drummond, who realized

154
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be able to get up there, but

155
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 3: I can jump a little bit. He also had a

156
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: jumper to put Detroit up by three with seventeen seconds left.

157
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: Kind of a weird play from Philadelphia, I thought, down three.

158
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: I was like, were they just trying to not get fouled?

159
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 3: You know, because a team on defense wants to file

160
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: when they're up three, so you have to kind of

161
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 3: be picky and choosy when you're gonna file. Philadelphia was

162
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: moving the ball quite a bit. It looked like there

163
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: were several shots they could have taken, but they didn't

164
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 3: take any of them. Kid, though, has been the closer

165
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 3: Kofe called him Closer Kid when we had him on.

166
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 3: He's leading the league in total fourth quarter points this season.

167
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 3: He's second in per game fourth quarter points as well,

168
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 3: shooting great percentages only five turnovers.

169
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: To twenty assists.

170
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: Like most of Kaid's turnovers come in the first three

171
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: quarters of the game when he's trying to get everybody

172
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 3: else involved. But he's seventh in FanDuel's MVP odds right now.

173
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 3: I think that should be higher, and maybe it will

174
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 3: as time ticks on. But another awesome performance from him

175
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 3: and Jalen. Duran is doing it every single night twenty

176
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 3: one and sixteen in this one.

177
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 4: Plus four stocks.

178
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 3: I know tast hates it, but it feels good to

179
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 3: say it in this scenario. Yeah, he was stucking it

180
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 3: up out there, and I was listening to the Sixers

181
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 3: broadcast because they had their beautiful uniforms, their old school

182
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 3: court a. La abdel Nabi compared him to Otis Thorpe.

183
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 2: Wow.

184
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 4: I was like, Wow, that's a throwback, and I think

185
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 4: it's mostly armed.

186
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 2: Medius on that one.

187
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 3: Duran is jet just like Otis Thorpe was. ODIs Thorpe

188
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 3: used to be one of two guys who had muscles

189
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 3: in the NBA.

190
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: It was like him and Carbalo. That's it.

191
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 3: But not a lot of guys have him and Duran's

192
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: might be some of the biggest. But he was ferocious

193
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 3: in this one, great synergy with Kate. Like I said,

194
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 3: I thought Caid played a really smart first half. He

195
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 3: was getting Duran really involved because Drummond was really high

196
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 3: up on these pick and rolls they were trying to

197
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 3: trap kid. He was getting off the ball really quickly,

198
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: which led to a big scoring night for Jalen Durham.

199
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 3: But then in the second half, Kid was just so

200
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 3: much more patient, hanging on to the ball much longer,

201
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 3: waiting for Drummond to back off, and then he could

202
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 3: just go right at Kelly Oubray, who's too skinny really

203
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: to handle Kid inside. So those two guys look awesome together.

204
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 3: Pistons first place.

205
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it feels like Kaid's takeovers are getting earlier and

206
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 2: earlier because they used to be just fourth quarter where

207
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: he had to score, and then in the third quarter

208
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: when his team needed him. Against this Philadelphia seven to

209
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 2: six ers team that is looking solid and looked good

210
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: against those Raptors on Saturday, he literally just went into

211
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 2: takeover mode in the third quarter, was seventeen points where

212
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,320
Speaker 2: no one could stop him. He gets into his dribble

213
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 2: game and he's able to peel back. Defensively, I thought

214
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: he was awesome at predicting where guys were going. He

215
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 2: was doing really well on that end. I questioned coming

216
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 2: into the season, no Dennis Shudder to help him just

217
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,319
Speaker 2: carry the load with the ball not needed. With how

218
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: Cad Cunningham is growing, he's clearly going to get some

219
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 2: MVP votes. He's one of the best players in the

220
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: game is just so dedicated. They closed this game along

221
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 2: with Durnan and Nassar and Kid with Javonte Green and

222
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 2: Ron Holland. Jontay Green is not going to be finishing

223
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: games later on, when Tobias Harris gets back or j

224
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 2: Navy gets back. Even Ron Holland had to make some

225
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 2: poor decisions, but that didn't matter. They were still clicking

226
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 2: under Caid Cunningham's lead role. And then you had to

227
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 2: dunk on Drummond was ridiculous. It was huge the way

228
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 2: you don't.

229
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: See a dunk like that usually, like in a one

230
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 1: possession game in the fourth quarter, right like that is

231
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 1: something you say like in the first thirty six minutes

232
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: of a game, but not right at the end. But yeah,

233
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: just blew by him and threw it down. And then

234
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: he had the one I thought it was a weird

235
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: coaching decision from Nick Nurse in the seventy six ers,

236
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: the one where he hit the little jumper that actually

237
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: sort of iced it, like really tough little fadaway jump

238
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: in the lane. Strange double from Quinton Grimes, Like I

239
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: get the idea, get it out of Kaid's hand, but

240
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: don't just scream up there on one side. Kate just

241
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: saw it. He's like, he's coming from that way, I'm

242
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: gonna go this way. He just went right into the

243
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,840
Speaker 1: lane and then hit a tough shot. Don't get me wrong,

244
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: but just like again, I get it, double them, get

245
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: it out of his hands, but come at it with

246
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: a little a little more tact than just scream as

247
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 1: if you want to be just runs right out of

248
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: him and he's like, Okay, I guess I'll just go

249
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: this way. But Kade has been awesome, and Duran's like,

250
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: kid's all NBA. Duran is like all star level right now,

251
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: nineteen and twelve.

252
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, feels like he's sort of flying under the radar

253
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,479
Speaker 2: a little bit. I wouldn't make the ODIs Thorpe comparison myself.

254
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 2: You know, we're we're old these we know ODIs Thorp

255
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 2: But the Jalen Duran bought is it's out of this world.

256
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: And here we go talking about a bot.

257
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 4: Let's go.

258
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: No, I'm backing, I'm back in Gianni's He commented. This

259
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 2: is what Yanni said in the off season when he

260
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 2: was interviewed by the Greek media. Is first talk about

261
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 2: playing in Europe versus the US, and how it's different

262
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: is that you got these huge bodies in America, like

263
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: Jalen Durnant, and looking at Jalen Durant, he's taken some

264
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 2: photos with the shirt off. The guy is massive, way

265
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,439
Speaker 2: bigger than ODIs Thorp. I'll respect to Alan Abden Albi,

266
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: but either Dwite, like, isn't he really even bigger? You've

267
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: got to see the photo with the shirt off. The

268
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: guy is humongous either way. I think he's sort of

269
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 2: flying under the radar with Kate leading the way. But

270
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 2: he kid doesn't need all that much help. The Quintin

271
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: Grimes double was weird, but everybody else is just I mean,

272
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: he needs help, I should say, but everybody else is

273
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 2: just falling into line. Krisl Vert now is the guy

274
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 2: coming off the bench, and he's playing well in his role,

275
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 2: in a limited role. But they don't need a ton.

276
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: They don't need Dennis Shrewder of last year who was

277
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: playing a ton.

278
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,719
Speaker 1: They don't need it, but they could also use it

279
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: for sure, and it's usually it would be Ivy, right,

280
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: I think who because he started hit a jumper in

281
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,320
Speaker 1: this game late and then he brought up Hall and

282
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: he like, yeah, hit or a mess here from time

283
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: to time and down the stretch. But the thing is, like,

284
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: you know, they're running Kid and Jaylen during pick and roll,

285
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: and that's fine because right now it feels a little

286
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: bit unstoppable, but a team can really pack the paint

287
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: on that. And Maxi saw it coming. Like the one

288
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: turnover Kid did have late, the one where Maxi went

289
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: the other way and dunked it. It was all because like, well,

290
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: we don't they're not going to do anything else, so

291
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 1: like actually like held off the corner and like he

292
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: jumped it right. He knew that the pass was going

293
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 1: to Durham because they throw bodies at Kade. They try

294
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: and slip itt to Durham, let him operate at the

295
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: top butt they saw it, they went the other way.

296
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, man, you add one more playmaker,

297
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: like one more guy out there that that ball can

298
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: get swung and they can attack. Very dangerous team and

299
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: they're already good.

300
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah. I was looking up the NBA Cup

301
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 2: schedule hoping that we were going to see a rematch

302
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: of Piston's nicks from last year's playoffs. But they're not

303
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 2: in the same group. It's not happening. But Caden Cuttingham,

304
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 2: I know they're cutting right now. They're thinking about the

305
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 2: playoff packages of this guy, and you can use that

306
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 2: donk on Andre Drummond and him got into the line

307
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 2: yelling at his bench saying, that's the I'm talking about.

308
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 2: And he's got the huge scra on his arm. I

309
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 2: could see the ESPN movie collaborations that they do go

310
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: into the playoffs. You know there's something there with the

311
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 2: superhero scratch. Yeah, exactly, there's something there. The guy's awesome

312
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: and he's clearly leading that team again. A couple guys

313
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: come back and help him out. This team is awesome.

314
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jayleen Duran, I checked. I wanted to see where

315
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: he was on Most Improved Player on FanDuel. Pretty far

316
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: down plus two thousand. Still giddy as the favorite, Danny Avdia.

317
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: These makes sense. These guys have been awesome. Ryan Rawlins

318
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: slipping in there, Austin reeves on Men Thompson. But Jayleen

319
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: Duran at plus two thousand, he has improved. That's the thing.

320
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: I brought it up a week ago or so ago.

321
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: The free throw shooting jumps off the page, like whoa,

322
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: he's actually decent there now I think he was like

323
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: five or seven in last night's game, but he's still

324
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: over eighty percent. After a really down year, he's more

325
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: confident out. Their playmaking is still improving. He's great. And

326
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: I have an idea I want to throw at you guys,

327
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: because we've got this new All Star weekend right where

328
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: it's going to be. I guess two American teams and

329
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: one international team.

330
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, let me know who's playing for these teas. Let's

331
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 2: be so strange thinking about it.

332
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: Let me propose this for a new All Star tournament. Idea,

333
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: Keep one American team of superstars, keep the international team,

334
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: and then let's just make a Jailen team. All we

335
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: got really good. Jalen's right now with Jalen Duran blossoming

336
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: into an awesome center. Jalen Duran center, Jalen Johnson power forward.

337
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: Hopefully Jalen Williams of the thunder back somewhat soon we

338
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 1: know he's all NBA level. He's the small forward. We'll

339
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: put Jalen Brown at the two guard, and we'll put

340
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson at the point guard position. Awesome team. Jalen

341
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: sugs off the bench. Jalen Green went healthy off the bench.

342
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Smith, he's played okay for the Bulls. Why not,

343
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: let's right there, that's all we need. That's pretty good.

344
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: Actual Yeah, let's Jalen Rose coach done.

345
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's better than the fourth G League team

346
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: as they had year. Yeah, that's way better. But it

347
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 2: sure feels like there should be a fourth team with

348
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 2: the way they got things designed. So yeah, team of

349
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 2: Jalen's makes sense.

350
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: That's a good team.

351
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. And he's he's young. You know what then, oh,

352
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 2: he's super young. Two I don't think. Yeah, he's turning

353
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: twenty two on the day that they're here in Atlanta

354
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: to play the Hawks later on this month's.

355
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Magic City.

356
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Hawks.

357
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: I'm taking the Hawks, that for sure. All Right, Piston's

358
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: a well deserved winner of the weekend. Let's go to

359
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: you next.

360
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 2: Alpera and Shengguon easily a winner of the weekend. The

361
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 2: game against the Spurs was definitely the NBA Cup game

362
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: of the season so far. It was just a spectacular game.

363
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 2: Now alert alper and Sheng gun is up to be

364
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 2: anyone's rival in this league. It's clear he was going

365
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 2: at Wemby. Now, was there some flopping from Alpera and Shangun. Sure.

366
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 2: Was there a Shane Goon moment where he hammered Wemby

367
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 2: when they're lining up for a free throw when the

368
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 2: game is basically over. Yeah, but that's what makes a

369
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: guy you hate to play against, a clear sign of

370
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: a guy who wants to play hard. And he was

371
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 2: going at Wemby those awesome moves when he would show

372
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: both his shoulders to just to get enough space and

373
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 2: banging home Wemby underneath the hoop or the footwork to

374
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 2: get around Wemby and the three going into the fourth

375
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 2: quarter against this team in San Antonio who was playing

376
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 2: really awesome. It was such a good game. And then

377
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 2: in the fourth to really show up hitting five shots

378
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 2: for fourteen points. The guy is becoming the superstar that

379
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 2: the Rockets need. It was awesome. And then so even

380
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: though they lost that game, which we'll get to, because

381
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 2: the Spurs played freaking great and they have to be

382
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 2: a winner of the weekend, Jannistead Kumbo against Shane Gooon

383
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 2: on Sunday was really fun. Shangun did a lot of

384
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 2: his work against Miles Turner, but I was more impressed

385
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 2: with the assists on this team. That we all wondered

386
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 2: where the guard play is coming from. He's so good,

387
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 2: he's so good at passing. He had seven to lead

388
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: this team on Sunday. He's a team leader with seven

389
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 2: point three assists per game. And again it was a

390
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 2: lot of it was against Miles Turner, but when it

391
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,719
Speaker 2: came down to it and they needed to to ice it,

392
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: he took the ball. And to end with you, he's

393
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 2: picking him up full court and he was able to

394
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: go past him and go around him and go around

395
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 2: the team and then here it comes to double flex afterwards.

396
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 2: Shane Guon is just ready to be hated by another team.

397
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:23,479
Speaker 3: Uh.

398
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 2: And that is what a superstar is all made up.

399
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: I mean, it's super super super fun. He had this

400
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 2: rivalry going on in the euro Basket against the Aiste Goobou,

401
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 2: but they respected each other, appreciated each other, and I

402
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 2: don't know how much Wenby appreciates him with that, it

403
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 2: was a Shane Goon shouldered to Wenby's face when it

404
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 2: was all said and done. But either way, he's awesome.

405
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: So Shen Goon's alter ego is Shane Goon when he's

406
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: like a badass.

407
00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: Good stuff. Yeah, Reggie Miller did it. That's all Rachel.

408
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,919
Speaker 1: The crazy play that tassel there as the lights flicker

409
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: on us, Shen Goon versus.

410
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 2: Nuts. Yeah yeah, god yeah, go ahead. Yeah. That was awesome.

411
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: The way she guon, I mean he beats you on.

412
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 3: Us once and then just pulls it out to like

413
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 3: run a little bit more time off the clock, then

414
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 3: beats him again inside, finishes over the top, got the

415
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: end one. Shangun took the two biggest shots of the

416
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 3: game because he also had the play where Durant hits

417
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 3: him after a pick and roll short role.

418
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: He's in the lane, gives.

419
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 3: You on us a bump and has the patience to

420
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 3: just kind of be like, oh if I turn for

421
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 3: a half second here easy hook shot. Knocked that one

422
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,679
Speaker 3: down to and then you know the end one that

423
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: really iced the game. I thought it was a complete

424
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 3: performance from Sheng Goon and he really brought it for

425
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 3: his team coming back from what they were down eight

426
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 3: with maybe five minutes left or something like that, went

427
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 3: on a crazy run. I thought, reed. Shephard was really

428
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 3: good in this game. Had three steals and a block

429
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. I think he finished with sixteen

430
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 3: on the night, hitting his threes, competing on the defensive end,

431
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 3: and he's little, but he can make plays defensively. So

432
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 3: I think he had five stocks on the night. And

433
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 3: then Kevin Durant like had a little bit of a slump,

434
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 3: was turning the ball over a ton. Scored really well

435
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 3: against the Bucks. But I love the defense from Durant.

436
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: He had Gary Trent Junior, maybe he was trying to

437
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 3: take him, got him on a pump fake, but Durant

438
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,479
Speaker 3: stays down, still challenges and he was just giving it

439
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 3: it as all ten games into the season, trying to

440
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 3: like set a tone for the Rockets. I think sometimes

441
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 3: he'll be their leading scorer, sometimes he'll be their go

442
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 3: to guy. Sheng Gun has been that, but Durant is

443
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 3: doing everything else that his team.

444
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: Needs anything to add to that. The kat part of

445
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: it all, I love that. I love this idea, Like

446
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: Katie sort of carries them for chunks of the game,

447
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: but it is the Alprin Chengu sort of at the end. Yeah,

448
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: and Katie seems completely fine with it because he sees like,

449
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: oh there's a mismatch. Go to work that play where

450
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: he got around Giannis, I mean Yis went for the

451
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: steal from behind. It was really weird decision by him,

452
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: But then he wasn't done. That was like the first

453
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: half of the play because then Shenggun did all the

454
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 1: work inside to get then start flexing.

455
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: It was a lot of work. But yeah, yeah, the

456
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 2: Shngoon Durant top of this team going down to guys

457
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 2: like Read Shepherd, who I don't know if that was

458
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 2: his best game of his NBA career, but it felt

459
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 2: like more so just because of all the things he's doing.

460
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 1: My Winner of the weekend, you said it their task,

461
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 1: the Spurs deserving as a team, but specifically Darren Fox

462
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: coming back on Saturday night look great. Pretty good debut

463
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 1: season debut for Fox. He nailed a calmly nailed a

464
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: ten footer like sort of stepped through floating type jumper

465
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: with about thirty seconds left on Saturday Night to ice

466
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 1: the Spurs victory over the Pelicans. He had twenty four points,

467
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 1: nine to fourteen shooting. Again, this is first game since

468
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: March twelfth. He had a really good second quarter fifteen points.

469
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: He exploded in with this like small three minute window,

470
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: chipped in three boards, three assists. But great game and

471
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: a team that already looked good led by wemen Yama

472
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 1: getting stuff from Castle. Now adds Dern Fox, one of

473
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 1: the best clutch closers in the game, and he's now

474
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: going to get reps here with these guys. This is

475
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: his only a sixth game with Wemby, barely played with

476
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 1: them last year, first time starting alongside Castle, and to me,

477
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: that's the guy that's going to benefit the most of

478
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: having Fox back. It's like one thing Wenby's going to

479
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: be Wemby. Castle now gets to go back to his

480
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: more like I think true role as sort of an

481
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: off guard who can make a bunch of plays off

482
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: of instinct. Fox can handle the ball a lot more.

483
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 1: He just brings a balance, I think, to this team,

484
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: to their offense and the pace of it all. So

485
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: good stuff from Fox's debut coming off the win against

486
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: the Rockets in that huge Cup game.

487
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 2: It was a super good Cup game. I thought, an

488
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: incredible court. Incredible court. It was gray, but its off

489
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 2: but it's a nice gray. That's a great court. And

490
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 2: I know there's not much of a list to rank

491
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 2: a game as the like this this weekend as a

492
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 2: great NBA Cup game, but yeah, I would, I would

493
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 2: rank that Spurs Rockets was fricking fun. I thought in

494
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 2: that game the Spurs were just matching the Rocket's ability

495
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 2: to grab offensive boards. That was so fun to watch.

496
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: The Spurs grabbed fifteen offensive boards. And then even when

497
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 2: the Rockets scored, you got the Mitch Johnson call right away,

498
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: push it, and they did. And so he is, They're

499
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 2: lall locked in into winning games and turning over the Rockets.

500
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 2: And then to go into Dearren Fox came back really

501
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 2: quickly from that hamstring injury. He said he was healthy,

502
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,199
Speaker 2: but the Spurs wanted to take it slow and to

503
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 2: see his speed out there, he looked obviously great. And

504
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 2: there's gonna be so much space, as you mentioned, with

505
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 2: Wemby out there, you can see how much better if

506
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 2: Fitzell is Kelvin john is Kelvin Johnson is. Those guys

507
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 2: are playing well, even a little Jeremy Sohan out there,

508
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 2: Trey playing minus seven and twenty minutes. Yeah some good.

509
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: Trust me.

510
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 3: The guys that I trash, I always checked their plus minus,

511
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 3: their plus minus. Man, Well, I mean I care if

512
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 3: that team is playing well when they're on the court.

513
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, well three games so far, Yeah, he's a minus

514
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 2: six minus two and minus seven. Yeah, he's shooting fifty

515
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 2: nine percent from three anyway, or from two, I should

516
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 2: say anyway. Moving on, they obviously look great. Fox can

517
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 2: get space out there with Wenby.

518
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 3: I think Fox is going to average a career low

519
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 3: and assist this year. They don't need him to be

520
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 3: their creator. Stefan Castle is an awesome creator. He had

521
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 3: thirteen assists in this first game with Fox, and I

522
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 3: think Castle is the best at finding Wemby for lobs.

523
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 3: Anytime he gets in the lane, he throws it up

524
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 3: really really high. Wenby knows how to finish it. Fox

525
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 3: only three assists, but they need his scoring more than anything,

526
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 3: especially in clutch time. He had six points a couple

527
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 3: assists in the fourth quarter. He had that nice finish

528
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 3: through herb Jones where he just bumps him off, and

529
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 3: I had a step through around Jeremiah Fears. He's a

530
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 3: guy that can go get his own shot finished first

531
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 3: and click player of the year once upon Its all right, Yeah,

532
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 3: twelfth the next year, but MENSI.

533
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 4: Was still doing it enough to get a couple of

534
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 4: boats out there.

535
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 2: I like to see that.

536
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 3: Wemby's an awesome player, but it's hard for a big

537
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 3: guy to be the go to guy in the clutch.

538
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 3: Somebody has to get him the ball and then, as

539
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 3: we've seen, like in the Suns game, they're gonna put

540
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 3: a small guy on him and then have help. There's

541
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 3: gonna be a lot of eyeballs on Victor wembin Yama.

542
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 3: It's much easier for a perimeter player to just go

543
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 3: out there and cook one on one, and that's.

544
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 2: Something that Fox is really really good at.

545
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 3: So I wouldn't be surprised to see him have low

546
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 3: assist numbers but high scoring numbers because they need somebody

547
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 3: with the ball in their hands to go make a

548
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 3: play when the shot clock is running down.

549
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: Let's do another round of weekend winners. Who else you

550
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: got to do your list?

551
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 3: Who also I have on my list? The Cleveland Cavaliers.

552
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 3: I think they're flying totally under the radar right now.

553
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,679
Speaker 3: Four straight wins. They beat the Wizards and the Bulls.

554
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 3: This weekend had one of the highlights of the season

555
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 3: when DeAndre Hunter broke Josh Giddy's ankle and then dunked

556
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 3: all over Pat Williams.

557
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 2: Bulls had to call a time out to.

558
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 3: Get Giddy off the court, and it had an effect

559
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 3: on the game because Giddy had a take to the

560
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 3: hoop with like a minute twenty left, zero lift on

561
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 3: a miss layup. They should have probably gone with Trey

562
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 3: Jones down the stretch. Whatever Bulls didn't score the final

563
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 3: one forty and Donovan Mitchell this dude just as a

564
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 3: straight up Bulls killer. They had it on the broadcast.

565
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 3: No player has ever averaged more points per game than

566
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 3: Donovan Mitchell. He's like twenty nine point three. I assume

567
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 3: he's still leading all time because he had twenty nine

568
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 3: six and six in this one, including thirteen in the

569
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 3: fourth quarter to push them over the top. I do

570
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 3: think the Cavs are kind of in a tough spot.

571
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 3: Nobody cares at all what they do during the regular season.

572
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 3: They lost in five games in each of the past

573
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 3: three postseasons. Twenty twenty three is first round against the Knicks,

574
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 3: their first taste of the playoffs.

575
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 2: No big deal.

576
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 3: I think twenty four to twenty five were more disappointing.

577
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty four, they lost to Boston in the

578
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 3: second round four to one. Boston did go on to

579
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 3: win the championship. Last year, they lost to the Pacers

580
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 3: in the second round four to one. They went to

581
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 3: Game seven of the NBA Finals, So maybe it doesn't

582
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 3: look quite as bad when you view it from that lens,

583
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 3: but it's early days. Their top ten on both sides

584
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 3: of the ball, seven guys right now are averaging double

585
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,719
Speaker 3: digits in scoring. That includes only two games from Darius Garland,

586
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 3: but he played okay when he's been out there. Didn't

587
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 3: play against the Bulls of the second night of a

588
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 3: back to back for them. My only concern with the

589
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 3: Calves I was watching League Pass. They show you the

590
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 3: in arena bits. They did one where they hooked guys

591
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,760
Speaker 3: up to a polygraph and asked them one question, do

592
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: you scrub your feet in the shower? A lot of

593
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 3: guys who don't wash their feet. Jared Allen says, it's

594
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 3: a long way down. I can't do it every time.

595
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 3: He's like, pick your battles. Bad knees are a bad

596
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 3: or a bad feet are a bad back. Thomas Bryant said, yeah,

597
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 3: I washed my feet and the polygraph reader said nope.

598
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 3: He's like, come on, that's my routine. I watched the

599
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: lower extremities first than the top half. Jalen Ticon was

600
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 3: just like, nah, yeah, it was really really funny. Craig

601
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 3: Porter Junior and Lonzo Ball they sometimes wash their feet,

602
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 3: but something to keep ring on hoping forward? Do they

603
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,160
Speaker 3: miss games with foot?

604
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 2: That was good that. I think that's as a common

605
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 2: trend of just men over all. They just don't wash

606
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 2: their feet. Just let down. Yeah, they're clean, good to go.

607
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: Do you have a Do you have a bench in

608
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: your or a seat in your shower? It don't help

609
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 1: right to get the bottom.

610
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 2: Of the house.

611
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you're good, We're getting old, man, you're

612
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: gonna fall over.

613
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 2: And then Jared Allenson, see, yeah, that's a good feeling

614
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 2: to wash your foot.

615
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: Incredible.

616
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 2: I believe Thomas Bryan, I believe he washes it.

617
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 4: Was so bad.

618
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 2: How dare you say that?

619
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: I am happy you added that part where like unfortunately

620
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: none of this matters after the idea of like are

621
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: the calves being overlooked? Are they going under the radar?

622
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: I mean, no one cares, No one cares. I'm sorry,

623
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: Cavs fans. It's gonna be like this all season. You're

624
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: gonna win sixty games, if not more. You're gonna look

625
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: great on both ends. You have a great team. We

626
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 1: all know that you have a bunch of all stars.

627
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. Nobody gives a ship until

628
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: you actually make a playoff run. That's just where they're

629
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: at in the cycle of good NBA teams. They're not

630
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: the first, they won't be the last. You know, it's

631
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,000
Speaker 1: not the first Donovan Mitchell team. And we've gone through this, right,

632
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 1: the Jazz back of the Day, same thing. I had

633
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: a really good regular. Yeah, what happens in the playoffs.

634
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, seven and three, a solid start, even though

635
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: they don't respect the Cup. Yeah, just come back to

636
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: hurt them.

637
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 2: Wait, the Calves, you don't think respect the Cup?

638
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: Now? They sat like they sat like four guys against

639
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: the Raptors.

640
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, first Cup.

641
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that wasn't very respectful.

642
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: You're right, it wasn't.

643
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 2: And yeah, people don't care. I don't know if people

644
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 2: really cared enough about Darius Garland dunking on Wemby last

645
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: year that this is excuse me not Darius Garland DeAndre

646
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: Hunter last year. That was as a Hawk and now

647
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 2: he's doing it as a Calve. Still, I don't think

648
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 2: it got enough credit to drop Josh Giddy and have

649
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: it dunk on the same play. That's all I'm saying

650
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 2: is that there's just not enough care for the night. Yeah,

651
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,479
Speaker 2: that was an awesome play. People will forget. People will

652
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 2: forget about it.

653
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: It's like I forget. I don't even know if they

654
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: have a name. But remember those little toys that you

655
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: could like press down on them and they would like collapse.

656
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: That's what Giddy looked like like when Hunters showed coming.

657
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: He just collapsed to the side.

658
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: And then yeah, you finished it with the dunk. Nice

659
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: dunk is huge, big, big play. All right, Calv's a

660
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: winner of the weekend task.

661
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 2: What you got, I'm going to Derek Queen Pel's rookie

662
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 2: versus the Spurs. He got a blessing from a legend.

663
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: He was playing in San Antonio and as he was

664
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 2: playing the Pelicans, broadcasters Antonio Daniels said, Tim Duncan just

665
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 2: sent me a text. He said, I really like that,

666
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 2: Queen guy. That is a blessing. You have been kissed

667
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 2: by a legend to receive that. And watching that game,

668
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 2: he had gray passes leading all of his cutters. Whether

669
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 2: he got doubled, he was able to see around them.

670
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 2: He was able to throw an alu. He had eight

671
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 2: helpers in this game. I'm sure Tim Duncan was sitting

672
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 2: up in his press box enjoying not a press box.

673
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 2: He's sweet, enjoying not being bothered by anybody, and also

674
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: watching this play incredible ball. Now, his numbers aren't all

675
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: that great this season, but they're running the offense through

676
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 2: him when he's out there on the floor, and it's something.

677
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 2: It's something for Pelicans fans to be happy about. There's

678
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 2: not a lot, so I had to when Tim Duncan

679
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 2: gives you that that, Hey, that guy's good. That's all

680
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 2: you need to be a winner of the Weekend. And

681
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 2: that's more than what they have. They're two and seven,

682
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 2: they're not winning a lot of basketball games, but you

683
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 2: go in San Antonio and you're running through the offense

684
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 2: through you. They went and traded a lot for him

685
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 2: this past offseason, and he's coming off the bench. If

686
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: the season goes poof and everybody's hurt, he may start.

687
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: And you can see that happening, and you can see

688
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: why he's so talented that there's also a reason that

689
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 2: he should be playing more basketball out there. So Derek Queen,

690
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 2: you're right O of the Weekend, that's for sure.

691
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: Winner of the Weekend for Friendship Too next to know

692
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 1: Antonio Daniels and Tim Duncan still sharing tech nobodies.

693
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

694
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, during the game, Like you said, while he was

695
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: sitting up there in his h.

696
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 2: To him right away, it looked like the lights were

697
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 2: flickering by himself in there, nobody. It didn't look like

698
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 2: there wasn't a friend.

699
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: Just how he likes it.

700
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 2: It's like I need a friend, Antonio, Let's be friends. No,

701
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 2: he does like it solo for sure.

702
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: Okay, Queen getting a little Pelicans fans will be happy.

703
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: They need that. It's really nice of you.

704
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a fun game to be able to

705
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 2: play with the Spurs. They they're hanging with the Spurs.

706
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, showed some fight.

707
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. They had a great week.

708
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 3: Two wins and a close loss. That's a great week

709
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 3: for the Pelicans. Now, all Derek Queen has to do

710
00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 3: is be better than the top three picks next year.

711
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: Yeah that pressure, no pressure, Like it looks awesome.

712
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 3: They were running the offense through him, like you're saying,

713
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 3: he gets compared. Literally, he has baby Yokic as his

714
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 3: nickname on Basketball Reference. He's a little bit more Sheng

715
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 3: goon I would say than Yokic, but all these guys

716
00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 3: get compared to each other, and he has good quarter awareness,

717
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 3: good skills.

718
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 2: He hit that cool like between the.

719
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 3: Legs step back Dirk sort of fade away jumper through

720
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 3: a couple of different alley style passes. One was like

721
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 3: a little bit more sauce on it. One of them

722
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 3: was a real high looper. I think to Trey Murphy,

723
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 3: he had forty one. He's got skills, He's talented for sure,

724
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 3: He'll probably be targeted defensively, doesn't move all that well,

725
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 3: but enjoyable performances.

726
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 2: And a big smile, too huge smile, a million dollar

727
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: smile to rub off on teammates who if we're going

728
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 2: to be really positive. We've seen the DeAndre Jordan's signing,

729
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 2: the Kevon Looney signing in the off season to try

730
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 2: and help this guy be a professional. So that's what

731
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 2: Joe Dumars is focused on. Get this guy to another

732
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 2: level because they may be going in a different direction

733
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: in the next few months.

734
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: Few other winners. I just wanted to tip our cap two.

735
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: On Friday night, the Raptors beat the Hawks again here

736
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. They improved to two to zero in the

737
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: Cup play they respect. The Cup. Raptors are sitting pretty

738
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: I'm probably jinxing it right now, but they have two

739
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: games remaining in their Cup stage versus the Wizards and

740
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: the Pacers, two of the worst teams.

741
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 2: In the league right now, they're going to the quarter finals.

742
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking ahead, but the Raps should win

743
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: this group. Two more wins for OKAC over the weekend.

744
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: They're now in impressive ten and one. On Friday, Isaiah

745
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,520
Speaker 1: Hartenstein had the best game of his NBA career thirty

746
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: three and nineteen nearly a big brief both career highs,

747
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, win over the Kangs. And then on Sunday,

748
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 1: OKAC outscored the Grizzlies by twenty five points in the

749
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 1: second half to roll to the one fourteen, one hundred victory.

750
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: Shay awesome thirty five points. He went takeover mode again.

751
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 1: So okay, see capees winning the Running with the Timberwolves podcast,

754
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: zero record and a plus sixty seven weekend in my

755
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: estimation meets the criteria. That's good. Weekend did dominate the

756
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: Jazz and the Kinks. Bad weekend for the Kings on

757
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 1: the other end of a lot of these, but I

758
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: mean they kicked ass. We'll show you the court in

759

Speaker 1: then finally, when are the NBA weekend? Andre Drummond for

761
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: bringing his dog to a postgame press conference. We need

00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 1: more dogs at postgame press conferences. Here's Bob Marley, uh,

00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: being in the back.

770
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 2: Sure, sure who's doing that reporting? Which MBA journalist is

771
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,280
Speaker 2: doing that reporting?

772
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 1: Asking the question to the dog?

773
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 2: What the dog was doing?

774
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, dog DoD it was hanging with that dog. Drummond

775
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 3: had an awesome game though. Yeah, he does seventeen points,

776
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 3: twelve boards, hit two threes. I thought, a crazy attempt.

777
00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 3: Then he took one late. Yeah, I mean I understand

778
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 3: you're two for three at that point.

779
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 2: But uh, in the corner right you're wide open for

780
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 2: a reason.

781
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do not care. If you make ten straight,

782
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 3: you're gonna get a wide open.

783
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 2: Look.

784
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 3: I think Maxy took a tough one as well, so

785
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 3: Philadelphia kind of short circuited a little bit thought in

786
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. But bring that dog with Yeah, why

787
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 3: not if you're in average a double.

788
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: Double with the dog and Bob Intendance. Dog's name is Bob,

789
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 1: like weird human names for dogs.

790
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's probably a two word dog like he's never

791
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 2: calling him just Bob. I imagine here, Bob Marley. That was funny.

792
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 2: The Sixers are weird in that Joe and Bid ain't

793
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: playing those fourth quarters. So a lot of all yeah

794
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 2: in that one, but sitting down in fourth quarters a

795
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 2: lot of the time. Listen, they were able to beat

796
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,280
Speaker 2: the Raptors, who, as you said, got a good victory

797
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 2: on Friday. I thought Scottie Barnes says, look and great

798
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,280
Speaker 2: because he wasn't having a good night. But what happens

799
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 2: to a star when they're not having a good night,

800
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 2: They get somehow their footprint or their fingerprint on the game.

801
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: And he was doing a great job and making those

802
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 2: passes all over the place, setting guys up all over

803
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 2: the place. He's had eleven blocks in his last four games.

804
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 2: He is getting after it defensively, so he's doing what

805
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 2: he can't. It's good to see that. It's good to

806
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 2: see another Canadian Andrew Nevpard come back, even though the

807
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 2: Pacers lost both games, but he at least he's back.

808
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 2: And I just wanted to ask about those Sacramento Kings jerseys.

809
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 2: To see the ones on Friday with the split down

810
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 2: the middle of the vertical split purple and once I

811
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 2: black on the other. Then they got the checkerboard coming

812
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 2: down the panel of their shorts. I can't get behind them.

813
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 2: I can't.

814
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the least offensive thing about the Kings

815
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: right now. You've watched them play not very good. Here's

816
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: how bad they are. Michael Red, former NBA player, he's

817
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: on Twitter. It's a great follow, super positive guy, great insights.

818
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 1: He is now questioning what the hell is going on Sacramento.

819
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,359
Speaker 1: He called him like a tough watch. That's like, that's

820
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: the kiss of death man. I mean, Michael Red, you've

821
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 1: lost Michael Red on social media. It's a red alert. Yeah,

822
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: but they are bad. He's not wrong. He's the vibes

823
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: are brutal in Sacramento.

824
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, why is he dramatic? Why is Michael Red

825
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: commenting on the Kings just because he loves hoops? He

826
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 2: loves hoops.

827
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, he wants to get into exact quote. I love basketball,

828
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: but man, the Kings are a tough watch right now.

829
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 1: End quote Michael Red at Michael Red underscore. That's the

830
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: official one.

831
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 2: It's bad.

832
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: That's how bad it is. Anyway, we'll get to losers

833
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: the weekend. We're not even touching on the Kings, not

834
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:48,439
Speaker 1: even worth our time.

835
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 2: I'll get a quick winner of the weekend to Mogay.

836
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty one, seven and seven with a couple of

837
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 3: blocks in a win over the Lakers.

838
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 4: Basically, nobody played for the Hawks.

839
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 3: Like Porzingis was out, Trey Young has been out, no

840
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson. So a bunch of College Park Skyhawks got

841
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 3: a run against the Lakers team that like they rolled

842
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 3: Luca out there.

843
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 2: Yep, they had eight and out there.

844
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 3: Luca had twenty two in the first half, and then

845
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 3: those guys got yanked midway through the third quarter never

846
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 3: came back in. Got to give some love to the

847
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 3: Hawks sixth man section. You hear the olaolola chance all

848
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:26,800
Speaker 3: over the place. So they were going.

849
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,839
Speaker 1: O game, O game, okay, O game.

850
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 2: That was pretty good.

851
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 3: Good. Yeah, he was having an awesome game. So it

852
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 3: was echoing through the fortress all night long.

853
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 2: Oh that reverse layup was sexy where he's hanging in

854
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 2: the air. That was nice.

855
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 4: It was like eleven straight in the first It was crazy.

856
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I almost wanted to give a positive winner

857
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 2: to JJ Reddick on the other side, whose team got spanked.

858
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:52,399
Speaker 2: He was so mad post game, he was furious. We'll

859
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 2: get to another coach who's the absolute opposite of that

860
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 2: handling his team. But I like J Reddick postgame just

861
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 2: saying I knew that we stunk in the first two minutes,

862
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,959
Speaker 2: essentially without saying that, and he just couldn't answer question.

863
00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 2: There were just two word answers, and you just wanted

864
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 2: to get the heck out of that podium. So at

865
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 2: least he is upset about it, unlike some coaches. We'll

866
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 2: get to all right, we'll.

867
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: Take a quick break here from our sponsors when we

868
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,640

905
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: I got?

906
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:16,879
Speaker 3: Jalen Green as a loser of the weekend. Just got

907
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 3: back from a hamstring injury. Played his first game for

908
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 3: the Suns on Thursday night. Looked awesome YEP twenty nine

909
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 3: points twenty three minutes. On Saturday, after playing just seven

910
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 3: minutes in his second game with Phoenix, reaggravated.

911
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 2: The same right hand string injury.

912
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 3: Drove to the hoop, looked pretty normal, came up limping

913
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 3: and had to be helped off the court. Sons insider

914
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 3: John Gambadoro has been reporting that he's gonna miss four

915
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 3: to six weeks, and when you consider the way he

916
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 3: got hurt this time, it makes sense that they're going

917
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 3: to be cautious. He came back what like a couple

918
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 3: of days early, looked awesome, and then just got hurt

919
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:51,879
Speaker 3: right away.

920
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 2: Sucks for a couple of reasons.

921
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,320
Speaker 3: First of all, the Sons have kind of turned it around,

922
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 3: went one and four in their first couple of games,

923
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 3: were getting down by twenty every night, but they've won

924
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 3: four of their last five, including beating the Clippers in

925
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,360
Speaker 3: Phoenix and then in LA. But the other part, Jalen

926
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 3: Green rarely misses time. Yeah, played eighty two games they'll

927
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 3: past two seasons, seventy six the year prior to that.

928
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 3: I think he was like sixty seven in his rookie year,

929
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 3: but usually is playing quite a bit. So for them

930
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 3: to do the Kevin Durant trade and not really get

931
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 3: to see what they even have in Jalen Green alongside

932
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 3: Devin Booker, I think is a big time bomber. The

933
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 3: good stuff They did get Dylan Brooks back, which is

934
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 3: well timed. Colin Gillespie, a task Melis favorite, has been

935
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 3: looking really good to start the season. Grayson Allen has

936
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 3: been playing pretty well in shooting the ball well again,

937
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 3: so I assume it'll be Royce O'Neil comes back into

938
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 3: the starting lineup for Jalen Green, alongside Brooks, Booker and

939
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 3: Mark Williams. But just felt like the Sons were starting

940
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 3: to get their team back together. They were going to

941
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 3: have most of their guys healthy, and then he goes

942
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 3: out for what's going to be what seems like a

943
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,280
Speaker 3: significant period of time.

944
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I totally agree they were getting it back together.

945
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 2: Beating the Clippers two games in a row and a

946
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 2: home to home that's something for a Phoenix Suns team

947
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 2: that was definitely one of those teams that people weren't

948
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,800
Speaker 2: excited about outside of Phoenix, and the people in Phoenix

949
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 2: were saying, don't sleep on us. And then for them

950
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 2: to come around like that and then lose one of

951
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 2: their players to a similar injury to what he just had,

952
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 2: it stinks now. Jordan not their head coach, said there

953
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 2: will be no excuses that people will step in. It

954
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 2: is a short term, a fairly easy part of their

955
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 2: schedule here. They got the Pels tonight, it's a winnable game.

956
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 2: Then you got the MAVs, the Pacers and the Hawks,

957
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 2: the Blazers, so you know, they shouldn't lose all those

958
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 2: games and people will step in, but it is I

959
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:59,200
Speaker 2: was surprised to see Gambodoro with this report because there

960
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 2: wasn't anything from the Suns. But Gamdoro's that clicked in

961
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 2: or that dialed in that he knows it's four to

962
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,479
Speaker 2: six weeks, so that's all. It is a long period

963
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 2: of time. I say, yeah, short term the schedules, okay,

964
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,479
Speaker 2: but four to six weeks is long and they're probably gonna,

965
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 2: as you said, Trey hould him out even you know,

966
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 2: as long as they possibly can.

967
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: Just hamstring injury. Suck man. Like you said this play,

968
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 1: you watched it, You're like, what what happened? It is

969
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: just because he reaggravated it pushes off, Yeah, exactly, and

970
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,320
Speaker 1: he grabs right at it. I mean, there's no secret

971
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,319
Speaker 1: what it was. Everyone right away he like what he

972
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 1: basically took himself off the floor immediately play continued. Uh

973
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: they got a shut up? May I've got a three?

974
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 2: Yeah?

975
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: He did actually book or maybe square anyway, but then

976
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 1: they're like foul, like on the defensive end, like it's

977
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: five on four somebody fouls somebody. But yeah, this sucks

978
00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 1: because he looks so great too. Like we talked about

979
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: it on Friday, We showed him a lot of love.

980
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: It was the one game on Thursday Nights threw it

981
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: in on it, talked a lot about Jong Green, talked

982
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 1: about the Suns looking scrappy.

983
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 2: Here.

984
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: You're right, Dylan Brooks is back. That's good, but it'd

985
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 1: be nice to see them all. But it's gonna be

986
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 1: a while because now you have to rip. Now, you

987
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:03,759
Speaker 1: gotta really really be cautious with it not to have

988
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 1: this just happen again when he gets out there. So

989
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,760
Speaker 1: it will be a while here, we probably, I guess

990
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: when we see him before the twenty twenty six, for

991
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 1: the end of the new year.

992
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:13,800
Speaker 2: I guess it's possible.

993
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 1: Four to six, he said, yeah, sure, maybe.

994
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 2: He's got to come back for Christmas time. That'd be nice.

995
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, Green, good point, hanging with Greens.

996
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: All right, Jallen Green. Just an unfortunate weekend loser, but

997
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:28,800
Speaker 1: at least the Suns are getting wins. We'll get to

998
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 1: the Clippers in a second. But you got somebody on

999
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,280
Speaker 1: your list for a loser of the weekend.

1000
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,400
Speaker 2: Well, the Dallas Mavericks are definitely loser of the weekend.

1001
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 2: I think Nico Harrison is in danger of losing his job.

1002
00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 2: I know they got a victory this weekend. They're one

1003
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,760
Speaker 2: in one, but it is not pretty. They got spanked

1004
00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 2: by Memphis on Friday. They were down thirty at some point.

1005
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,279
Speaker 2: Then they made it just a double digit loss, but

1006
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 2: it was it was a spanking. And then they beat

1007
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 2: the Washington Wizards.

1008
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,240
Speaker 1: Apparently, yes, apparently.

1009
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 2: They're throwing Brandon Williams out there as their closer point

1010
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 2: guard because they have such problems. No disrespect to Brandon Williams,

1011
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 2: but I think he's got to play more because Dangel

1012
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 2: Russell just ain't doing it right now. And this experiment

1013
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 2: of playing Cooper flag of the point guard it ain't working.

1014
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 2: But you've got your own guys, your own legends. And

1015
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:19,360
Speaker 2: Dirk Novitzky sitting there on Amazon saying, whoa this team is.

1016
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 2: It's not pretty. They're playing side to side, is what

1017
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 2: he said. They're not going towards the hoop whatsoever. They

1018
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 2: are the worst offense in the league. And I think

1019
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,360
Speaker 2: there's just going to be more and more losses, and

1020
00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 2: I don't think it's coming from Jason Kidd. He was

1021
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 2: quoted as saying, the boat isn't burning, so we're fine.

1022
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:42,040
Speaker 2: You know, he's just too Calm ain't getting his team

1023
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,919
Speaker 2: to play with any sort of force. Kyrie Irving ain't

1024
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 2: coming back anytime soon. They need desperate guard play, but

1025
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 2: he's not coming back. Told at that very least twenty

1026
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 2: twenty six months. In several months in to twenty twenty six,

1027
00:47:54,560 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 2: I imagine I think Nico Harrison is in danger because yeah,

1028
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,799
Speaker 2: sure they can say, well, Anthony Davis has missed half

1029
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:06,120
Speaker 2: the games thus far, and Derek Lively has missed seventy

1030
00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 2: percent of the games. We're doing math and Dante Exam

1031
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,879
Speaker 2: hasn't played if we need some guard help. But they

1032
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 2: are the fourth highest in team salary. They're gonna be

1033
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:18,439
Speaker 2: fourth highest again next year, Patrick Dumont. They just bought

1034
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 2: this team from Mark Cuban wanting to have a winner,

1035
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 2: and so there has to be something that happens. And

1036
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you can look deep down, it gets under

1037
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,760
Speaker 2: a reporter, under talked about. But they traded Quentin Grimes

1038
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 2: for Caleb Martin. This guy could be one of their

1039
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:39,240
Speaker 2: best players. Quentin Grimes is balling for Philadelphia. They've made plenty,

1040
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 2: plenty of mistakes and maybe it starts with Jason keep

1041
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 2: playing more point guards, but it's still not going well.

1042
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 2: It's a bad team to watch now. The sit at

1043
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 2: three and seven, that's okay, I guess if you want to,

1044
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 2: if you want to make the excuse of injuries, but

1045
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,879
Speaker 2: they're going to keep losing unless they get some guard help.

1046
00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 2: And they should be making a move for one right now.

1047
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, Unfortunately would be Nico Harrison does the guy doing

1048
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 3: the move two. But there's reporting from Mark Stein and

1049
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 3: Tim McMahon basically speculating that if things don't turn around quickly,

1050
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,759
Speaker 3: Nico is going to be out of a job. Those

1051
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 3: guys are super well connected in Dallas. So I believe

1052
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 3: the smoke because the team doesn't look good, and most importantly,

1053
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 3: it feels like they are.

1054
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:26,000
Speaker 2: Messing with Cooper Flag's development.

1055
00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,280
Speaker 3: It's only ten games into his career, but he's clearly

1056
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 3: playing out of position and doesn't look like a superstar

1057
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 3: right away, which is what I think a lot of people,

1058
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 3: myself included, were kind of expecting out of Cooper the

1059
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 3: guy as a generational draft prospect.

1060
00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 1: He went number one.

1061
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,560
Speaker 3: This is a team that some thought was going to

1062
00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 3: be challenging in the Western Conference period. I thought they

1063
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,720
Speaker 3: could be near a playoff team, and that looks pretty

1064
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 3: far fetched at this point where there are people that

1065
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 3: were talking about him as one of the best teams

1066
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:56,240
Speaker 3: in the Western Conference, which seems unbelievable. Cooper looks pretty

1067
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,320
Speaker 3: ordinary to start his career. I think if he was

1068
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:02,360
Speaker 3: averaging tw points and six assists, nobody would care that

1069
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,879
Speaker 3: they're losing games. But they're losing games and he isn't

1070
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 3: lighting the league on fire, which looks really bad for

1071
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 3: Nico Harrison.

1072
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:11,040
Speaker 2: Small silver lining.

1073
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,399
Speaker 3: It seems like Anthony Davis is back soon. He might

1074
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 3: play tonight. He almost played over the weekend. That definitely helps.

1075
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 3: But they traded Luca because they were concerned about him

1076
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 3: being able to play games and be on the court.

1077
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 3: They trade him for a guy that never plays so silly.

1078
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: It's tough, and this is why they have to fire

1079
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,720
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison too, because it's this whole leak, the Luca

1080
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,560
Speaker 1: like hangover too, right, that black cloud hanging over the

1081
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 1: franchise that hasn't gone anywhere, because it's not going to

1082
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: go anywhere if you continue to lose. It just like

1083
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: gives the fan base something more to focus on, Like,

1084
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 1: you messed this up. We were an NBA finalist team.

1085
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: What the hell were you thinking trading a guy that

1086
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: was not even in his prime yet a perennial MVP guy, Like,

1087
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: it's so silly. I mean, we need to go over

1088
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,800
Speaker 1: it again. I saw Tom Ziller right this morning, Nico

1089
00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: Haerson needs to find Naji Marshall and no show endorsement

1090
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 1: deal or something. Because Marshall's thirty points saved the game

1091
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 1: in a real weekend from hell for Harrison, so you

1092
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:09,799
Speaker 1: still give them loser the weekend. But yeah, I could

1093
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: have been going took the one win. Naji Marshall a

1094
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 1: big reason why.

1095
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 2: Barely brutal man. It's tough. I don't know what the

1096
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:22,360
Speaker 2: maneuver is from. You know, it's not a new ownership,

1097
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 2: but it is fairly new. And if they are giving

1098
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 2: Miko Harrison just a leash here because the Patrick Dumont

1099
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 2: didn't come from a basketball background. Now, I've heard Mark

1100
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 2: Cuban continuously talk about that Dumont is trying to get

1101
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,480
Speaker 2: better on that side of things, But where does it,

1102
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 2: where does it materialize? What happens? I mean they are

1103
00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 2: not a good basketball team. It is very poor. And

1104
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 2: in two and a half weeks they're going into Los

1105
00:51:55,600 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 2: Angeles and playing Luka Doncic on Black Friday, and so

1106
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 2: it's right after Thanksgiving. That would be horrendous the headlines,

1107
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 2: you know, you call it black whatever. It's going to

1108
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 2: be an extremely dark cloud over this team if they

1109
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 2: lose to Luca, which they will because it's who is

1110
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:23,919
Speaker 2: definitely spiteful. And so the question is, will Luca text

1111
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 2: Nico Harrison if he's fired? That's my question. I wonder

1112
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,319
Speaker 2: if he's that spiteful, like a mean text. Yeah, hey,

1113
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 2: well you know it was a good run, buddy or something. Yeah,

1114
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 2: like some sort.

1115
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 1: Of he needs to crack a beer immediately on the floor.

1116
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 1: Can't take his beers now from him? Yeah, it's bad, okay,

1117
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks, anything else to add? I mean, you didn't

1118
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: even bring up the Klay Thompson of it all this time.

1119
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: You get worst of the Week last year.

1120
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 2: Right, right? Right? Yeah?

1121
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 1: I mean he's gonna be traded, isn't he? If anybody

1122
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 1: will take the contract.

1123
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:57,800
Speaker 2: He's got a kind of a long contract.

1124
00:52:57,840 --> 00:52:59,640
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it makes a lot of money.

1125
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 3: Well, honestly, Nico built a great team for Luka Doncic,

1126
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,480
Speaker 3: like he built the perfect team for Luka Doncic. You

1127
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,400
Speaker 3: can tell because they went to the NBA Finals and

1128
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 3: now they're trying to reorient it around an eighteen year

1129
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:13,800
Speaker 3: old power.

1130
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:15,920
Speaker 2: Forward who's playing point guard. Yeah, doesn't make sense, No,

1131
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 2: it doesn't.

1132
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 1: All right, loser of the weekend to the LA Clippers.

1133
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,760
Speaker 1: Let's slip them in here. Suns held them off one fourteen,

1134
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: one oh three on Saturday, their second win over LA

1135
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 1: in three days. Harden did return after missing Thursday's loss

1136
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 1: for personal reasons. He racked up the assists on Saturday,

1137
00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 1: but he shot four fifteen from the field in a

1138
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,760
Speaker 1: lot of minutes, so he was rusty there with the shot.

1139
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 1: Clippers have now lost four in a row. They fall

1140
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: into three and six, not much better than the Dallas Mavericks,

1141
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:47,160
Speaker 1: and Kawhi is going to miss the next few games

1142
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 1: here due to his sprained right ankle. And the worst

1143
00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 1: part about all of this is like they just look

1144
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: like who some of us were concerned about, and that's

1145
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,440
Speaker 1: just being an old ass looking team. And their defense,

1146
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,359
Speaker 1: which was awesome last year. I think they were top

1147
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,800
Speaker 1: three in the league in defense, they are like bottom

1148
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 1: of the league now. It's completely flipped and it doesn't

1149
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:10,719
Speaker 1: look good for LAC right now at all, especially when

1150
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: you had the Kawhi news TK that he's going to

1151
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:15,319
Speaker 1: miss some time, which is a surprise but just makes it.

1152
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 4: Exactly he missed time last year and they still played defense.

1153
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 3: They're twenty six in defense right now because they give

1154
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 3: up a ton of three pointers. They're allowing the most

1155
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,879
Speaker 3: in the league, and teams are shooting forty percent from

1156
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,160
Speaker 3: three against the Clippers. They are so susceptible to drive

1157
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 3: and kick. They get beat off the dribble and then

1158
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 3: spray it out to the shooters, sometimes as a corner three.

1159
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 3: A lot of these are coming from above the break,

1160
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,719
Speaker 3: which maybe if you're Tile Lil, you're like, we're giving

1161
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,160
Speaker 3: out above the break threes.

1162
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,800
Speaker 2: Eventually teams will start missing. That's probably true.

1163
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 3: It's hard to shoot forty percent on the league, so

1164
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,800
Speaker 3: that probably comes down eventually. But what's not going to

1165
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:50,000
Speaker 3: change is that they look like they don't have much athleticism.

1166
00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 3: They don't look to have very much physicality either, so

1167
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,800
Speaker 3: I don't know how they change that. Like Chris Dunn's

1168
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 3: playing Derek Jones Junior is playing. These are guys who

1169
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,359
Speaker 3: were import sortant to them on the defensive end last

1170
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 3: year and just aren't having quite the same effect. Zubots

1171
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:06,840
Speaker 3: is getting to go in a little bit, which I

1172
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,640
Speaker 3: think is good, but it does still feel like a

1173
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 3: ton of possessions are like Zubot's post ups, ye Brook

1174
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 3: Lopez post ups. It feels very dated to me. As

1175
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 3: an offensive strategy, Harden has to carry them. He didn't

1176
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 3: shoot well, like you're saying. He was setting guys up.

1177
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,799
Speaker 3: He's their best playmaker, like we talked about when they

1178
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,319
Speaker 3: lost to the Suns the first time and he didn't

1179
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 3: play and they weren't able to score. But they're going

1180
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,440
Speaker 3: to have to be better on the defensive end and

1181
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,480
Speaker 3: take a little bit of pride right now, if they

1182
00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 3: turn the ball over, it's a guaranteed two points for

1183
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:34,839
Speaker 3: the opponent because they just can't get back in time.

1184
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:40,000
Speaker 2: This Clippers seem like Jordan was saying, it'd be nice

1185
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 2: to have Kui in there, just to have some camaraderie

1186
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 2: going what he did last year was missed the first

1187
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 2: few months of the season the same team was playing,

1188
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,439
Speaker 2: and then he came back in January and then played

1189
00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:53,440
Speaker 2: till the end of the season. Now this is different

1190
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 2: than last year where he's missing a chunk of games. Obviously,

1191
00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 2: their defense is just horrendous. Last year they had Chris

1192
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 2: Dunn starting the entire season being that on the ball

1193
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 2: perimeter type of defender. Now they're they're starting to go

1194
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 2: back to that, along with Derek Jones Junior. But yeah,

1195
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 2: they look ancient. Unfortunately, they don't have that same that

1196
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 2: same hunger on that side of things. We didn't mention

1197
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:22,640
Speaker 2: the Mavericks are good on that side of the floor,

1198
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 2: but they're so bad that they can't accommodate for that.

1199
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:28,279
Speaker 2: And last year the Clippers were pretty bad offensively too.

1200
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,640
Speaker 2: It was just James Harden because Kawhi was out for

1201
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 2: a bunch of the season. But now it's like both sides.

1202
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,959
Speaker 2: Last year they were third in defense. Now they don't

1203
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:41,120
Speaker 2: have that anymore. So they look they look old. They

1204
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 2: do they do.

1205
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 1: They play old too. They're like the last team in

1206
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,760
Speaker 1: the league like they appear old. They play the Hawks

1207
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,680
Speaker 1: tonight in the Intoit Dome, then they have the Nuggets

1208
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,400
Speaker 1: and then they go on a seven game road trip.

1209
00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 1: So they got Dallas in Boston and Philly and Orlando

1210
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,400
Speaker 1: and Charlotte Cleveland, the Lakers. You said that that they

1211
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 1: were going to be playing the Mass Well they're playing

1212
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,160
Speaker 1: the Clips too, So that's an nd season tournament game.

1213
00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:06,799
Speaker 1: So it doesn't get easier here for the Clips. Like

1214
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,680
Speaker 1: it's so early, but we are like one eighth of

1215
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 1: the season done for a lot of these teams, you know,

1216
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,600
Speaker 1: and you know there's three and six, three and seven

1217
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 1: in Dallas, Dallas's case, like, there's so many good teams

1218
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 1: of ball. It's not gonna be easy to call your

1219
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 1: way back into some of these races.

1220
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 2: And I do think that the odd Kawhi playing him

1221
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 2: now for at the beginning of the season then getting

1222
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 2: injured is not good for them. And we saw last

1223
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,120
Speaker 2: year for the first time in a while, he was

1224
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 2: able to start later on the season and get it

1225
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 2: going and start to turn it up a little bit

1226
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:40,680
Speaker 2: and then play in the playoffs. Now he's out for

1227
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 2: a chunk of games. And yeah, they haven't developed who

1228
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:48,680
Speaker 2: they are. They play so far into shot clocks that

1229
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 2: they start shooting extremely laid into shot clocks and it's

1230
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 2: just kind of it's slow, and yeah, it just doesn't

1231
00:57:57,800 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 2: it doesn't bleed into the other end either.

1232
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: Final loser of the weekend to the Minnesota Timberwolves NBA

1233
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:08,000
Speaker 1: Cup Court gotta do it. They hosted the Jazz at

1234
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:11,040
Speaker 1: the Target Center on Friday night, first group stage game

1235
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:14,880
Speaker 1: at home there, and they had some trees on this floor,

1236
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 1: but you wouldn't know it. I don't even can't even

1237
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:19,640
Speaker 1: see the damn trees because look at this neon green

1238
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,640
Speaker 1: it is the focus, extra wild looking on TV. You

1239
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,440
Speaker 1: see the photos of people in person, it's bright, but

1240
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 1: man on TV that contrast. Whoa I saw Brandon Beckford

1241
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 1: tweet the Timberwolves have absorbed the gamma radiation from the

1242
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 1: court and become basketball incredible hulks because they played well.

1243
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: They played well on this wild green court. But a

1244
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: lot of people saying that's mountain dew.

1245
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 2: Bro.

1246
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you're a great Cup Court guy, so

1247
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: I assume you're not the biggest fan of this.

1248
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 2: I told you colors on the floor from baseline to

1249
00:58:57,560 --> 00:59:04,360
Speaker 2: baseline don't work. Obviously. The brighter the world, right, that's

1250
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,960
Speaker 2: crazy it is they're trees there, you said.

1251
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like they're like where all the people are standing,

1252
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:12,760
Speaker 1: Like it's like a tree design. You know, it's on

1253
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,280
Speaker 1: the one side there, but you can't see them.

1254
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:19,440
Speaker 4: Looks like they're floating, like the players look floating.

1255
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it almost looks like an LEDs court like

1256
00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 1: All Star.

1257
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 3: Did they have a green court story, wasn't it base?

1258
00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, Activation, there was a lot of that color. I

1259
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:34,640
Speaker 1: don't think we liked it on the led court either.

1260
00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 3: But I like a bright court, but too bright, too

1261
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,960
Speaker 3: bright one, especially.

1262
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 2: With the lighting in the arena. If we're going to

1263
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,600
Speaker 2: get all technical, you see these bright spots of the

1264
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:50,120
Speaker 2: lights like spot lights almost, and sometimes that doesn't work.

1265
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 2: It didn't even work on the I would say the

1266
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,920
Speaker 2: Orlando Magic. I was watching with my daughter and it

1267
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 2: was it's a very light gray. She goes, that's not gray,

1268
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 2: that's almost blue purple. And it is kind of got

1269
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,280
Speaker 2: this tint, especially with the lighting coming on it. It

1270
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 2: all depends on the lighting. Uh. And in that scenario,

1271
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 2: way too bright. The lights don't help it. In Atlanta,

1272
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 2: dim Burgundy, how was it the Burgundy court? Actually Saturday? Yeah,

1273
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:17,720
Speaker 2: you didn't see the Friday court.

1274
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:20,440
Speaker 1: The red was better than the yellow abomination from the

1275
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 1: year before for the Hawks in my opinion. Yes, And

1276
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: I don't even love red courts. The one red I

1277
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,440
Speaker 1: didn't like. Did you see the nuggets.

1278
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 2: It's like pop up burgundy.

1279
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like pepto bismo. Pepto bismoal is what people

1280
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: were saying. Just not a good looking red in my opinion.

1281
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 2: By way. They're trying things, they're trying things. I wonder what.

1282
01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 1: Michael Red thinks of the Red Courts.

1283
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:42,520
Speaker 2: Loves it, loves it for sure.

1284
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 4: You know what I do want to retire, though.

1285
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,960
Speaker 3: Is the the Kramer meme for NBFL Courts.

1286
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 2: We've seen it three straight years.

1287
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 3: For every color Imaginable. That's a thirty year old show.

1288
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,919
Speaker 3: There's been something brighter since then. Give me an Oppenheimer meme.

1289
01:00:57,680 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 3: The guy's watching the Trinity test something new.

1290
01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 1: Okay, that's a good idea.

1291
01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 2: Yeah that's a good meme.

1292
01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: Uh pick them tonight tasks? Where are we going? And

1293
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 1: will you get a victory?

1294
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:12,040
Speaker 2: Who knows? In five?

1295
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 1: It's amazing.

1296
01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:17,040
Speaker 2: And I was happy to take the Toronto Raptors. You know,

1297
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 2: I'd say took the Hawks against the Raptors because I

1298
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 2: knew the Raptors were gonna win on Friday. I knew that. Yeah,

1299
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,840
Speaker 2: well I said it. I said it on Friday too.

1300
01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:28,160
Speaker 2: I can skunk this no problem. But tonight I'm getting

1301
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 2: to win because Milwaukee going into Dallas, there's no way

1302
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,040
Speaker 2: I'm taking Dallas. There's no way. So I'm taking the Bucks.

1303
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:36,440
Speaker 2: They got to win by two and a half. They

1304
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 2: get them by three trays in the same boat as me, Skates.

1305
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 2: You believe in Dallas.

1306
01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:43,280
Speaker 1: Something's going on here. This worked for me last time,

1307
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: where a line smelt fishy and I got it right.

1308
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 1: I forget what the game was, but this one, what

1309
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:50,520
Speaker 1: the hell's going on? You think it should be bigger?

1310
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:50,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1311
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:52,919
Speaker 1: I know them back to back, We'll give me a break.

1312
01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 3: I think the question for me is like, will they

1313
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 3: rest Giannis in game two of them back to back?

1314
01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,440
Speaker 4: That's maybe why the line's so small.

1315
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 3: And maybe Anthony Davis comes back tonight as well.

1316
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 4: So yeah, I thought this was a tough one to pick.

1317
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: Okay, Well I got Dallas and task is going for

1318
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 1: the over and if he does well, you'll be paying

1319
01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 1: it off by shaving a go tea, Go tea November.

1320
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:21,000
Speaker 1: Everybody last place in the month of November and our

1321
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 1: pick and payoff. We'll have to show up, I don't know,

1322
01:02:23,480 --> 01:02:24,960
Speaker 1: for a couple days, maybe a week with a go

1323
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:29,760
Speaker 1: tea on the show. I mean, Trey's off to a

1324
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 1: great start, but it's a long month.

1325
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 2: It's a very long month.

1326
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll be wild. This man has a huge

Speaker 4: under younger or older. Yeah, the thing I would lead

1335
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:52,240

1343
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 2: grow beer during the pandemic and it was gross, like

1344
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 2: a long one. You know, I'm just way too scruffy.

1345
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,000

Speaker 1: November tenth. We got weeks to go here. Yeah, and

1368
01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,000
Speaker 1: we have seen many times where someone just gets on

1369
01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 1: here or the opposite and can't pick right to save

1370
01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: their lives.

1371
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:51,320
Speaker 2: Well, I'll only be two games behind you after tonight.

1372
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 2: Oh wow, wow, Dallas winning. I would be surprised if

1373
01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 2: if sits. I know it is a back to back

1374
01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 2: because they lost yesterday. But even if he does, I'm

1375
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 2: taking the Bucks supporting team versus that Mavericks team.

1376
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 1: That one on League Pass eight point thirty Eastern tonight.

1377
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:15,840
Speaker 1: Our Peacock game tonight, it's Wizards Pistons. Baby, WHOA what

1378
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: is that?

1379
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:16,560
Speaker 2: Weird?

1380
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:20,400
Speaker 1: Pistons are excited to see that. Keep it going, but

1381
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 1: against the Wizards, it's got to be their one nationally

1382
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:28,880
Speaker 1: televised game. I would think how many Wizards games could

1383
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 1: they have possibly have on the docket. And then we

1384
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:34,280
Speaker 1: got Hawks Clippers on NBA TV tonight, So it's.

1385
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,040
