TK even 17 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: got dapped up mid stream by Kenny the Jet Smith. 18 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 19 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: So this was a hilarious twenty five minute podcast the 20 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 1: guys did after the game last night. 21 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 2: It was great. It was great as we just watched 22 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: it again. I still laugh every time I see Kenny 23 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: c Trey, and it looks like Trey is getting back 24 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 2: to work to talk about basketball, but Kenny comes in, 25 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: surprising that Kenny comes in right for the DAP. 26 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 1: Remember when Kenny Smith hated us guess when we first 27 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: got there, then he loved us. Yeah, good stuff from 28 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: Trey and Ashley. 29 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 2: If waiting for my JBL speaker by the way. 30 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was a great gift at that part. 31 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was fun. 32 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: If you haven't checked that out podcast, out that video, 33 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: go do so help the guys out did a great 34 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: job going live last night. But it's our turn now 35 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: to really dig into it. We'll get to some random notes, 36 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: it's the drop. We'll have some rapid fire fun at 37 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: the end. But the Pacers did it again. The underdog 38 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers pulled off another stunning win last night, this 39 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: time taking down the Thunder one eleven in Game one 40 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty five Finals. The Pacers trailed by 41 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: as many as fifteen points in the fourth quarter unbelievable, 42 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: but pulled off their fourth shocking late comeback of these playoffs, 43 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: and Tyrese Haliburton once again the hero, hitting the game 44 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: winning jumper with point three seconds left. His deep deuce 45 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: gave Indy its first and only lead of the entire game, 46 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: They've done it again tests and they're up one. 47 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 3: Oho. 48 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: Man, it is unbelievable that each series, now all four series, 49 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: Haliburton has hit a shot in the last one point 50 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: three seconds left in either the fourth quarter overtime to 51 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: either tie it or win it. I'm glad he didn't 52 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: do the choke thing like he happens to do is 53 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: his game one of the NBA Finals. Let's wait before 54 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 2: the choke. But I do want to just watch it 55 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 2: over and over and over because Cason Wallas picked him 56 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: up full court and he tracked him the entire way, 57 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 2: and I like watching it from this opposite end of camera, 58 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: this phantom view, because Cason Walls is on him, but 59 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: I think he sees Alex Caruso coming, so he kind 60 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: of thinks he's handing him off to Alex Caruso, so 61 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 2: he gives Haliburton an extra step there, extra bit of space. 62 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: As halburn season He's like, Okay, I'm rising and I'm 63 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: hitting his shot. So I think there's a miscommunication there 64 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: from this perspective, because Cason Walls, again he was tracking 65 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: him the entire way. He was in Haliburton's shorts until 66 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 2: that spot where Crusoe looks like it's your job now. 67 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: But Crusoe goes to box out and there's that extra 68 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 2: little bit of space for Halburton to rise and hit 69 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: the shot. What a freaking shot. 70 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: I mean, credit to Carlisle and the pacers for not 71 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: calling the time out. Yeah, let him do it again, 72 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: otherwise you probably got doored on him, right, Yeah, and 73 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: maybe he doesn't get that shot off. He did have 74 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: the smaller wallace on him, the big dude, he goes 75 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: right all the time and obviously felt comfortable stepping into 76 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 1: that jumper. But I hear your takeaway there from like 77 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: what do we do in his cruis were coming over 78 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: to help, But yes, man, the stones on this guy, 79 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. 80 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 2: It is unbelievable how they got there in the end, because, 81 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: as you said, it's fifteen points with nine minutes left. 82 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: Andrew Nemhart was a hero in this game, because even 83 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: if you look at the stat line, what a hero 84 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: has four of eleven fourteen points? But he was when 85 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: it came down to it fifteen fifteen points down, nine 86 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: and a half minutes left in that fourth court, or 87 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 2: he started it up. He went at Alex kruz CRUs 88 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 2: So basically like hugs him. But somehow Nemhart is able 89 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: to finish through and get that bucket. And then he 90 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 2: had big assists after big assists to go on a 91 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: twelve to two run to bring the Pacers back in 92 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: this game. Four threes by their bigs, two from Miles Turner, 93 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 2: two from Obi Topping, and Nemhart had three big assists 94 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: to get them closer to the end there, even though 95 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 2: one of those Miles Turner threes was a bank job 96 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: that was nuts, a bank job from you know the 97 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: side he's he's sort of free throw line extended and 98 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 2: shoots that ball. How does that bank end? And then 99 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 2: Nemhard with two minutes left, hits that three over Shay 100 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 2: that was yeah, just likes and hits that shot over 101 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 2: Shay to get them closer. And then we got Degna 102 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 2: deciding to go extremely small the last three minutes and 103 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 2: twenty four seconds. They don't have a center out there. 104 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 2: They pull out chet Holme, and you know, we can 105 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 2: debate whether or not it was a smart move. Lou 106 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,679 Speaker 2: Dort had a monstrous block with a minute plus left, 107 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: so he was playing center. I had my girls watching 108 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 2: that lou Dort block over and over and over again, 109 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 2: because lou Dort just goes straight up this monstrous man 110 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: straight up and is able to just hang out there, 111 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 2: hang in the air, hanging there, hang in the air, 112 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: and then block the shot. That was beautiful. 113 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: And then Sga scored on the other end. And that 114 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: was one of what a dozen times where you probably thought, oh, 115 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: they got it right, they did it. Okay, so he's 116 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: gonna win this game. Good fight from the Pacers, but 117 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: a little too late. Yeah, like that was that that one? 118 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: To me, it was like, Okay, this one's finally over. 119 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: They finally did it. But I thought that like ten 120 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: times in this game. Yeah, it's like, oh, it's a rap. 121 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: Oh it's a rap. Yeah, it's a wrap. 122 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 1: How did these guys come back? 123 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: I will say though, Shade did have a bad minute 124 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 2: ten of the end of the game. His last minute 125 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: ten was was it was bad. It was there up three, 126 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: He goes in, Pascal Siakam acting as center, blocks the 127 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: shot and then they go down the other way again, 128 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: are down three points. Andrew Nemhart tries to hit another shot, 129 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 2: he misses. Shaye is guarding Pascal Siakam and Pascal Siakam says, 130 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: all right, I'm going in for the offensive rebound. I'm 131 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 2: the biggest guy on the floor essentially, and Shay just 132 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: looks kind of gassed as Pascal Siakam comes from the 133 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: corner and Shay just kind of throws his hands at him, 134 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 2: doesn't box him out, and Pascal gets in there for 135 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: the offensive rebound. So now it's a one point. 136 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: I'll add to that though. You know, if you're gonna 137 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: miss a three pointer in the NBA basically making an airball, 138 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: cause that one just I mean, I know it wasn't 139 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: technically an airball, but it gries the front of the 140 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: rim and fell to Yakam. So again, like I'm not 141 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: like defending SGA. He definitely looked Ash would have had 142 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: a body on him. But like, if you miss in 143 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: the NBA, I swear to God, it's your best chance 144 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: to get the board. 145 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 2: Just miss it bad, that's how you get it. 146 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, because obviously the defense is like ready for the board, 147 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: ready for the bounce out a little bit more. 148 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 2: But anyway, continue, Yeah, No, it's hard to say Shay 149 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 2: had a bad last minute and ten because he had 150 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: an awesome game and he just scored before that, but 151 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 2: then here he goes the other way, gets blocked by 152 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: passcal and then we're up one here, what am I 153 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: going to do? He kind of just has a one 154 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: pass POSSESSI where he kind of just dribbles dribbles dribbles 155 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 2: and them Hart cuts them off. So seven seconds left, 156 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 2: he says, all right, Jaalen Williams, you do it. Jalen 157 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: Williams misses luckily, okay, so he's able to get the 158 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: ball back because of that challenge that Rick Carlisle had. Hey, 159 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: I think Pascal Siakam was pushed by Cason Wallace. They 160 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: give the thunder the ball and then Shay is stopped 161 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: by Andrew Demhart Q Halliburton to come the other way 162 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: after that miss The guy's ridiculous. So it was, yeah, 163 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: you're right, how many times do you think? Okay, so 164 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: he's taken this thing. Okay, So he's taken this thing. 165 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 2: Jalen Williams is yelling, he's screaming with nine point thirty 166 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: left as they go to the timeout, and then Andrew 167 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: Demhart again started it. He started it, but all those 168 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 2: guys topping Miles Turner also from the mid range of 169 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: those guys just come through in the fourth quarter. 170 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, after an abysmal first half. Yeah, where I know 171 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: we'll talk about this, but what nineteen turnovers in the 172 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: first half. Now, lucky for Indiana, some of them were 173 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: dead ball variety, you know, it wasn't them going on 174 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: the other way, but well, ones that were live balls. 175 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: The Pacers did an incredible job just to get back. 176 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: Their transition defense was awesome, even if they were turning 177 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: it over because OKAC was not capitalizing when they were 178 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: getting these steals. They were like missing threes or missing 179 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: lamps or turning it over themselves. Even happened a couple times. 180 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: Like you know, if we had told you coming into 181 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: this like they're gonna have basically twenty four to twenty 182 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: five turnovers, Dort's gonna hit five threes, SGA is gonna 183 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: have thirty eight. There's just no way you'd look me 184 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: in the face and say that the Pacers still went 185 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: as miraculous as this run has been, and they feel 186 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: like the team odesity. There's just no way you would 187 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: have if I had given you those numbers. But like 188 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: you said, that fight in the fourth quarter, I even 189 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: think I know he gets overlooked here, I thought Mathron 190 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: at the start of the fourth quarter played with some aggressiveness. 191 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: He attacked the rim, he got some free throws, then 192 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: he had another layup, just like using his athleticism. Again, 193 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: there were so many incidents where they just sort of 194 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: like stayed within striking distance and they were all he's 195 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: in that call it eight to fifteen point range and 196 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: in the NBA that's not enough and definitely not enough 197 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: against the Pacers, and they could never get over the hump, 198 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: and the Thunder just like sort of started settling for threes. 199 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: Wallace was shooting threes like you said, Jay Dubb, and 200 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: everybody was. Dort started missing in the fourth and then 201 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: they went smaller and so then they weren't even grabbing 202 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: offensive rebounds. 203 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. Matherin played a part. There's no doubt. 204 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: It is amazing that every single guy on this Pacers 205 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 2: team comes through. He even did a decent job on 206 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: Shaye when he was guarding him, like he did on 207 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: Jalen Brunton in the last series. Bedan Matherin of all 208 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 2: people like slowing people down. But it was miraculous in 209 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 2: that fourth quarter, those stats where the Thunder oz for 210 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: from three while the Pacers hit sixth trees. 211 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: Six for ten in the fourth quarter. From the Pacers 212 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: they hit eighteen overall and the Thunder missed a bunch 213 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: of them. But at one point in the fourth quarter, 214 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: early in the fourth quarter, the graphics showed you at 215 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: the bottom of the screen it was like eleven to 216 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: ten or twelve of two eleven like in three point 217 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: shots made, so it was like, you know, it wasn't drastic, 218 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: But then that fourth quarter when they hit six, some 219 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: of them insane like the banked in job, but others 220 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: just from pure hustle, Like the one I keep coming 221 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: back to is like Nie Smith like attacked baseline. He 222 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: got wrapped up by like two or three Thunder guys, 223 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: but he just kept fighting and he wouldn't like give 224 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: up the jump ball or get the steal and that 225 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 1: one got kicked out and I think that was a 226 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: top and one that he banged on the side like huge, 227 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: huge plays. And then like you said, Nemhart had a 228 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: lot of the other ones assisting those guys you called 229 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: the tasks called a couple things right heading into this one, 230 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: Pacers are probably gonna be okay with the star in 231 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: SGA getting his just try and take a take away 232 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: everyone else check and then you brought up watched the 233 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: Pacers go through Nemhart a lot more and they did. 234 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: Halla Britton's a hero, no doubt coming through with that, 235 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: but like they're not there without him, obviously, playmaking more, 236 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: doing the high pick and roll, feeling it with that 237 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: huge step back three over Sga, feeling it so much 238 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: he tried it again. That was the airball that then 239 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: lands in Siakam's lap. But yeah, yeah, you called that 240 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: as well. 241 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't didn't know that Pascal Siakam. I called 242 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 2: the over nineteen and a half points. Yeah, that Pascal 243 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: was at nineteen. He didn't get that half point. I 244 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: didn't know that the Thunder would be starting. Cason Wallas 245 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: and Pascal Siakam took advantage of that in a couple 246 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 2: of cross matchups to start this game because Pacers couldn't score, 247 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: and I didn't know Haliburton would be thrown off. As 248 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 2: you heard him on the audio track, he said, I 249 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 2: mean I I was just kind of had the jitters 250 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 2: and he wasn't right. And to see at the end 251 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: of the game and to hear Andrew Nemhart was at 252 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 2: his locker and did like three minutes of press of media. 253 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: Then he was gone. He didn't have to do anything. 254 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 2: Everybody's talking about Haliburt. Everybody talks about Haliburt and forgets 255 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: about Pascal Siakam and Andrew Nemhart. Pascal Siakam with that 256 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: monstrous block and the putback with that minute left, Huge Nemhart. 257 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: Fourth quarter, Huge Ben Mathron coming through, Huge Miles Turner 258 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 2: coming through with two big threes and a mid range shot. 259 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 2: Huge Obi toppin'. Who the heck saw that? 260 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: These to basically match Dort I mean, just to cancel 261 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: him out. Yeah, and he looked shook. 262 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 263 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: Back in the first half, that guy was throwing the 264 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,719 Speaker 1: ball out of bounce twice, then he bobbled it. 265 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 2: Sloppy top. 266 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: He looked scarce, sloppy top. Yeah. But then obviously, like 267 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: a lot of them, bounced back in the second half, 268 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: like they cleaned up the turnovers too. And a second, 269 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: how do they do it? 270 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 2: How do these pacers do it? It is wild to 271 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: think about how they only had a lead with only 272 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: point three seconds left. I can't help but start to 273 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: think of the twenty eleven MAVs and their run to 274 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: the NBA Championship and how they were not rarely favored 275 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 2: in that first series, just like the Pacers here in Milwaukee. 276 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: Dallas wasn't really sorry the Pacers versus Milwaukee. Some people 277 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 2: took the Pacers, some people took Dallas over Portland in 278 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 2: twenty eleven. But then they were just underdog, underdog dog, 279 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 2: like the Pacers are to the Kasnicks and Thunder here and. 280 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: Here they are. 281 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, now the Thunder has been here before. 282 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, two rounds ago. Yeah exactly. 283 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 2: In Game one against the Nuggets, it's not fetch to 284 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: see them come back. But yeah, they gave up that 285 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 2: fourth quarter lead in the Aaron Gordon game winner. So 286 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 2: I still think they're the favorite, but I will be 287 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 2: proven wrong. 288 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure. 289 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: I mean, this is gonna be a long series and 290 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 2: that's the beauty of it. 291 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: It feels like Indiana has played in nine official clutch 292 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: games this postseason. They've won eight of them, so they 293 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 1: have a basically an eighty nine percent winning percentage in 294 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: the clutch here in the postseason. So this is their recipe, right, 295 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: I Mean, it's oddly get behind and then come back, 296 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: but like if the game is close, the confidence in 297 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: all of these guys, especially when you know, hey, if 298 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: we're D two or three or whatever, we're just giving 299 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: it to Halliburn and we feel like he's gonna hit 300 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: every single time. 301 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: Because he basically is, Yeah he is. 302 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: He's not missing any of these like huge shots. The 303 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: Pacers are like reminding me of these videos you see 304 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 1: online where it's like a guy on a moped or 305 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: a guy on a motorbike, sometimes even like a quad bike, 306 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: and they fall off and the bike goes on its side, 307 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: but they refuse to take their hand off the handlebar 308 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: and in doing so or just like pulling back on 309 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: the throttle and the bike keeps going and they're dragging 310 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: around and stuff like that. That's the Pacers. They don't 311 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: let go of the damn handlebar. The difference is in 312 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 1: those epic fail videos the guy eventually crashes, let's go whatever, 313 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: the Pacers would be the equivalent. Like they jump back 314 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: up on the bike, do a wheelie, pull over to 315 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: the camera and we're like, yeah, I meant to do that. 316 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: It's like, what, like let go? How do they not 317 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: let go? They just hold on somehow, always holding on somehow, 318 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: appearing to make it worse. But then like come back. 319 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: It's it's special. It's special. They do legit feel. I know, 320 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot of finals still to go here, You're right, 321 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: Thunder probably still the favorites. Yeah, but at a certain 322 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: point you just have to go, like, how many more 323 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: times can this happen? Where you're like, it's dusty Man. Yeah, 324 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: they are supposed to win. This. Great job by the 325 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: script writers, because this is pretty special. But what an 326 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: awesome start to this final. It gives it like so 327 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: much juice. 328 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, good comparison right there. I mean, Haliburton 329 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 2: had a twelve point game until that game winning shot. 330 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 2: It wasn't a spectacular Haliburton game. They allowed Andrew and 331 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 2: Mpard again kind of saved the day. But it was wild, 332 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 2: you know, nine forty two left down fifteen to see 333 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 2: the Pacers go on a thirty two to sixteen run 334 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: to end the game. And they scored thirty five in 335 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: that fourth quarter. They didn't even come close to thirty 336 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: two in the first three quarters. They just banged it home. 337 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: It's just the numbers are dumb. I'm looking at my 338 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: sheet here, like the Thunder took sixteen more shots. 339 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right, And we talked about that possessions, possessions, possessions. 340 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: Whoever wins, that's winning the game. Well, that was wrong. 341 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: Just came through, just came through when it mattered, because 342 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 2: they hit six threes in the fourth quarter and the 343 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: Thunder hit zero, and so they just couldn't get to 344 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: the end. And maybe Shay is is gassed a little 345 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: bit because he did have to score a lot, and 346 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 2: they did say to the Thunder, all right, Shay, go 347 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: off and we'll take care of the other guys. But 348 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: it felt like with Chet in the way he started 349 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 2: and Jalen Williams, like two minutes into his first NBA 350 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 2: Finals game, bringing the ball up and stepping into a 351 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 2: three point shot and hitting it, you think, okay, if 352 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: Shay is good and Chet is good, with the way 353 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: he started along with that Jalen three, do you think, 354 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: oh man, they're good. 355 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. The problem was those guys didn't do a whole 356 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 1: lot more after that Chet and Jadub, except Jadub started 357 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. He was like three to twelve going 358 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: into the fourth and then he went three to three. 359 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: You had the big fast break DWNK couple ones where 360 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: he attacked inside, was sneaking in there, and that's like 361 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: that was definitely one of the times I thought, okay, 362 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: now he has really shown up here. Right now, this 363 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: is going to be difficult for the Pacers. So yeah, 364 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: that was the one of ten or eleven times where 365 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: I thought, okay, he was winning, but I thought Chett. 366 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: I mean, also, he didn't play a ton chet Holmgren either. 367 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 2: No, and then that's a fair question. With three twenty 368 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 2: four left, Dagnaut, he goes back to those thunder last 369 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 2: year before Isaiah Hartenstein, when chet Holmgren was hurt. They're 370 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 2: playing a six to sixth guy at center. Essentially they're 371 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 2: tiny for the last three twenty four again, Lou Dork 372 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 2: comes with a huge block, but Pascal Siak and the 373 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 2: monster of anybody on the floor, he's the biggest guy, 374 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 2: comes through with the big offense on the both fense. Yeah, 375 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 2: and the big block of Shay with minute seven seconds left. 376 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 2: So I wonder, I wonder if that happens again. 377 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: Were you surprised that Dagnall started Wallace for Hartenstein in 378 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: Game one of the NBA Finals When your team has 379 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: won eighty games at this like, you are making the 380 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: decision to switch it up before you've even played a 381 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: minute and like, even though we've seen him do similar 382 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: things in the start of second half's Yeah, I was 383 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: amazed that he did that. 384 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was. I was surprised too. I was 385 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 2: surprised how the thunder reacted positively. 386 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean their did work. 387 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Cason Wallace has a big minus and 388 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 2: he got the shot hit over him. Although I do 389 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 2: think there was a miscommunication there. Yeah, I am surprised 390 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: for sure. Well, you don't play one of your bigs, 391 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 2: you win and got hartenshein to pair with Homegroom before 392 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 2: the season, so we can't get out rebounded, and it 393 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: was a problem. It was a problem right at the end. 394 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 2: And I don't think Cason Wallace was the problem at all. 395 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 2: But I mean the Spacers team, I guess would have 396 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 2: beaten any team. 397 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 398 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,640 Speaker 2: Hartenstein came out and played awesome and his minutes. 399 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: Oh god, he it's seven points right away. 400 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 2: When he checked, he was so good. 401 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Dangel's like reasoning was like, look, we 402 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: did this story in the regular season at times. You know, 403 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: this isn't nothing really new to us. We like the matchup, 404 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: we're going small again. It wasn't surprising when he went small. 405 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 1: It just maybe was like, what why right start? In 406 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: game one? 407 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it isn't why it right to start the game. 408 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 2: It isn't surprising that Cason Wallace played thirty three minutes 409 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 2: and Hartenstein played seventeen minutes, but you'd flip and Hertenstein 410 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: would start and play seventeen minutes. Yeah, yeah, that was Yes, 411 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 2: it was surprising for sure. 412 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: Do you think he goes back? 413 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a. 414 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: Weird Hardenstein's starting. Yeah, do you or do you look 415 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 1: like you're like oddly panicking even more? I don't know. 416 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: I don't know what to think because RJ on the 417 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: call is like, oh, the Pace have already won here, 418 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 1: like in the mind game department, like the Thunder already 419 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: switching it up because you know they are quote unquote 420 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: worried about the starting lineup and whatever the matchup problem. Like, yeah, 421 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know how much truth there 422 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: is that, but it. 423 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 2: Didn't seem like there's any truth to it. 424 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: Thunderer playing great nineteen turnovers in the first time. 425 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Thunder were responding well. Although I think Richard 426 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 2: Jefferson's argument here would make a lot more sense in 427 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 2: game two. Well, if they do flip. 428 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: If it's game two or game three, it's like nobody 429 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: blinks an eye. It's the fact that you did it 430 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: in game one at home when you've won again eighty games. 431 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 1: At this point, you're sixty eight wins in the regular 432 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: season and you're twelve up to this point, you're looking 433 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: for four more. That's the weird part. 434 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if they go back to the 435 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: Hertenstein because he was he was so good, as you 436 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 2: said the points at setting picks. He's such a good 437 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 2: screen flipper. You know, it's a first he's in Isaiah Hartenstein, 438 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,479 Speaker 2: then he's Isaiah hart and Stein. He just flips, So 439 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: I associate that with his name because I think he 440 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 2: says Isaiah hart and Stein. 441 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: I don't anyway, I stay Hartenstein, you have you, I 442 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: feel do go more Steen. 443 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 2: And we've had it depends the day. Tray should ask him, 444 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 2: because Hartenstein came up to Trey if you didn't hear 445 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 2: our last show and said, well, I used to watch 446 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 2: you guys when I was young, and he put his 447 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 2: hand to the floor like he's like. 448 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: I used to watch you guys when I was a Hartenstein. 449 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. 450 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: Now I'm a heart and Stein. 451 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: But he was awesome. He was so good he was 452 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 2: and there's lots of stats that don't show up in 453 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 2: the box score, but Andrew nemhart airball to three because 454 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: Hartenstein was all up in his face getting out there 455 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: to three pointers. Now, I think part of that is 456 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 2: because he was that sort of in a way. It 457 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 2: was good because he had all that energy not having 458 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 2: to start the game, and I think he why he 459 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 2: was able to contest shots like that, why he was 460 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,239 Speaker 2: able to blow by Thomas Bryant was because he came 461 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 2: off the bench and was that spark. So I guess 462 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: they stick with Cason Wallace. Yeah, because if there's any 463 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 2: team to go small against, it is this s Pacers 464 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 2: team that isn't huge. That does. 465 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: But but all that said, the Pacers won the rebound battle. 466 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 2: Lest yea they did. 467 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: That's big, especially in a game where you're gonna turn 468 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: it over on so many damn possessions, you're gonna hopefully 469 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: want to win at least the rebounding battle, which you know, 470 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: those guys were scrappy, like what you what's the box 471 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: scots like Siakam with ten boards, Nie Smith with twelve boards, 472 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: Haliburton had ten boards, so everybody obviously getting on the glass. Yeah, 473 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 1: to give him a chance and give him those either 474 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: second chances or to end a possession and get the stop. 475 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So it wouldn't be surpising if they go 476 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 2: either way. I guess it is the mental win for 477 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 2: the Pacers if they do flip it again. 478 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, they're adapting to us. We know what we are, 479 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: we know how we're gonna play, and we know how 480 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna start this game. So I guess a little bit. 481 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: But like you said, it's not like it's not like 482 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: Indiana was up at the end of the first quarter. 483 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: But despite everything being turned over, they somehow were not 484 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: down huge. Every time you were like this game feels 485 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: like ok, he just sort of crushing them, and there 486 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: was like, oh it's an eight point game, No, it's 487 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: ten point game, right, never really out of it all 488 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: that much. 489 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: And they react extremely well to losing that game one 490 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: against the Denver Nuggets and bomb them by forty three 491 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 2: in game two. But they didn't have to change their 492 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 2: lineup at all, right, They just they just rolled that 493 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 2: same lineup again. So you could see them rolling again 494 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 2: with that same lineup. 495 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: I loved SGA's quote after the game. He said, it's 496 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: a forty eight minute game. The Pacers teach you that 497 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: lesson more than anybody else in the league. The hard 498 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: way facts right there. It's like they had them. I 499 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: mean they had them for what would you call it, 500 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: I don't know, forty minutes if not longer. It's all 501 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: comfortable with it, and then their foot off the gas 502 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: a little bit and the Pacers do what they do. 503 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 1: Here's a question for you. Is Halliburton currently having the 504 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: greatest clutch playoff run in NBA history? Like when you 505 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: go through it, because despite only fourteen points, he has 506 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,120 Speaker 1: made the key shot in every one of the pacers 507 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: four ridiculous comebacks this postseason Game five versus the Bucks, 508 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: Game two versus the Cavs, Game one versus the Knicks, 509 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: and now Game one in the NBA Finals versus the Thunder. 510 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 2: It sure feels that way right since the. 511 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: NBA play by play era, people are comparing it, like 512 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: because that comes in what ninety six ninety seven the 513 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: play by play era, So you can't like, we don't 514 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: have like the clutch numbers for your birds and your 515 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: magics and even a lot of your Jordan's right, but 516 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: Jordan ninety eight, clutch as hell, Robert Lorry in two 517 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: thousand and two. Yeah, a few Lebrons to pick from either, oh, seven, thirteen, eighteen, 518 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: I mean there's probably some other ones. Twenty eleven, Dirk 519 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: to go back to that Mavericks miraculous run that they did. 520 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: So it's right there, is my point, It like has 521 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: to be. I mean, they go on to win the 522 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: title as one of the biggest upsets of all time, 523 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: as the only force he'd to ever do it, then 524 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: then hell, he might have to go to the top 525 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: of the list. But right now he's just completely in 526 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: the mix with these goats basically. 527 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it happened during the regular season too, the 528 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 2: stat going around that he had he was twelve or 529 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: fourteen on shots to tie or go ahead the final 530 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 2: two minutes. And how he does it because the other 531 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: guy is that possible? I know, I know, it doesn't 532 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 2: make sense. 533 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: They don't don't. They don't go twelve or fourteen in 534 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: spans of the game in general, not alone in these 535 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: high pressure moments when all the focuses on stopping them. 536 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 1: But he just gets to his shot, and you know, 537 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: had the you know, basically had to horseshoe up his 538 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: ass in the one against the Knicks, no doubt, to 539 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: get it to overtime. Yeah, like that one's so a 540 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: little bit of luck, A lot of luck, not that one. 541 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean it banged home a little bit, but obviously 542 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 1: comfortable getting to his spot like. 543 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 2: You yaies right. I want a little bit of an 544 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 2: a I re edit of having Cason Wallace all up 545 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: in his face rather than take a step back to 546 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 2: give him a little space before that shot. I would 547 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 2: like to see. Obviously it's all fakes, so we won't 548 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 2: be able to relive the actual moment that the ball 549 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 2: is released from Tyrese Halburton's hands. But Cason Wallace unfortunately 550 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 2: gave him that tiny bit of space. Whether or not 551 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 2: it was a defensive flubb with him and Caruso, he 552 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 2: probably thought Cruso, the bigger guy, would be there to 553 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: contest the shot. I can't I wish, I wish we 554 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: were in the locker room to find out what that 555 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: mistake was, because I don't know if he makes the shot. 556 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: I mean you call it a mistake, I mean you 557 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: sort of just have to tip your cap to the guy. 558 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 2: I'm tipping my cap. But if I'm playing, if I'm 559 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 2: playing defense and I'm able to guard him from the 560 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 2: moment he has the ball to all the way to 561 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 2: the three point line, if I'm able to stick with him, 562 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 2: and then I just kind of take a little step 563 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: back and give him space. I wouldn't never he would 564 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 2: never give him space. Keithan Walls would never give him space. 565 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: Halliburton was well aware of how much clock was left. 566 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: I mean, he basically played it perfect right and getting 567 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: like playing it to the last possible second to shoot. 568 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 1: I know there's point three left once it goes in, 569 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: but like when he releases it, you know, Wallace has 570 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: to play. I'm like he might drive. We've seen Haliburton 571 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: go inside there now you generally think he wants to 572 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: do his little step back. He's done that a lot 573 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: of times, but sort of down the stretch, had a 574 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: couple where he was attacking and scoring inside. So you 575 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: got to play that. You don't have Chet out there, 576 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: you don't have Hertenstein. Yeah, so it's not like you 577 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 1: got huge rim protection behind him. So I don't know 578 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: he was trying to like sort of back up a 579 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 1: little bit. But what a shot. 580 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just unbelievable right now, he is unbelievable. 581 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 1: It's nuts. I saw this from Sam Quinn at CBS Sports. 582 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,959 Speaker 1: No one else in the play by play era, including Lebron, 583 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: has made at least one such shot, these Halliburton like 584 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: shots in each of the four rounds across their entire careers, 585 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 1: because he has. As I went through there, he's done 586 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: it in every single round. Halliburton has one of these 587 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: nuts shots. Jordan did it, but he didn't complete his 588 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: bingo card until the ninety seven NBA finals, So Jordan 589 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: eventually got one in every round, but it took him 590 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 1: a long time. So the point is Haliburton has done 591 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: in a single postseason what it took Jordan to do 592 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: in an entire career, and what Lebron has not even 593 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: you know, actually accomplished in twenty two NBA seasons. Basically 594 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: basically game winner or clutch shot like that in the 595 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: final couple seconds in every single round. 596 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. And the benefit is Haliburton being the sort of 597 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 2: pure point guard type of player where he doesn't have 598 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: to shoot every possession. He doesn't. He doesn't need twenty 599 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 2: five to thirty shots per game. Thin guy, had a 600 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 2: fourteen point game, and he had a game winner, and 601 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 2: he's the hero because these are the Pacers. Man. Yeah, 602 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 2: he doesn't shoot all the time, so it is fun. 603 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 2: It is fun, and that's the reason why I feel 604 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 2: like he had every little ounce of energy that Shay 605 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 2: didn't on the other side. I mean, Shay had to 606 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 2: be sort of a hero the entire game, and he 607 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: had monstrous help at handling the ball. 608 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: You slipped it in there at one point a lane 609 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: violation on the Siakam free throw attend when he did 610 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: clank two free throws. I mean, it is down the stretch. 611 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: All these points matter, and the second one, the officials 612 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: come in and said, oh no, no, okay, season the lane. 613 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna reshoot that one, and he hit it. I 614 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: mean obviously ended up being a big point in the game. 615 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: You win one eleven one ten. Yeah. I thought it 616 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: was a bit of a weird call because it's like 617 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: there's like ten guys that felt like in the lane, 618 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: like everybody was a violation. Yeah, And even Breen was like, 619 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: you can go weeks of watching the NBA and they'll 620 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 1: never call that. So just strange that they did. Huh. 621 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if you had a take on it, 622 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: you thought it was the right call. 623 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: Well, well, maybe maybe they had a make up call, 624 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 2: because I think what I was referring to actually was 625 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 2: when it was like twenty three seconds left, when the 626 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 2: ball went out of bounce. 627 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: Yeah that one. 628 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the ball went off of Pascal Siakam. 629 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, his back was on the ground when he touched it. 630 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 2: And Cason Walls kind of pushed him. Yeah, but they 631 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 2: didn't call Cason Walls for the free or for the foul. 632 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 2: So maybe that's a makeup call. Possibly, But I liked 633 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 2: how they didn't call that. It's just like guys are 634 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: going to hit each other, and it definitely was off 635 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 2: Pascal Siakam. Although I love Pascal Siakam's face was great, great, 636 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 2: So I like how they didn't make that call. And Okay, 637 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 2: see had another shot, another opportunity. Like I just said, 638 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 2: she gave it to Jalen the first time that eventually 639 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 2: went out of bounds. Then she had another opportunity and 640 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 2: missed the guy was miraculous, But we all focus on 641 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: the stuff that was late. I think throughout the game, 642 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 2: all I was taking notes was Caruso's help block was 643 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 2: freaking phenomenal. I mean there's smart plays by like Cason 644 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 2: Wallas grabbing Haliburton's arm as he streaks down the lane 645 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 2: to try and get a pass, but because Kason Wallacy 646 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 2: yanked them, Halburton didn't get There's just it's it's overshadowed 647 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 2: all the great defensive plays that the Thunder made, especially Caruso. 648 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 2: It goes goes on and on it. 649 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: That's like the beauty of these coaches playing so many guys. Yeah, 650 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: I think it's like this high level defense or at 651 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: least effort, right, because they just come in waves and 652 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: they play so many guys. That's like that starts to 653 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: wane as a game goes on when you have these 654 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: coaches and we've seen teams that like play their guys 655 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: forty forty five minutes. Well, like, I mean, something's gonna 656 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: fall off, Like you're gonna lose some energy, specially you 657 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: usually lose it on the defensive end first. But we 658 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 1: don't really have that case because so many guys are 659 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: both really good defenders or at least give a damn 660 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: and put an effort, and then like everybody's sort of 661 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: fresh when they keep coming in in these ways didn't 662 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: we have a Rick Carlo did the old like hockey 663 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: lineup switch. 664 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 2: He did. 665 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: He took five guys off, five guys in let's go, yeah, 666 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: jump over the boards. 667 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: This is a team, man. And when you're going through 668 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: all of Halburton's game winners and how he's able to 669 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,960 Speaker 2: do it, I go back to just who this guy is. 670 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 2: And he was a number twelve pick and he wasn't 671 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 2: the guy to take over. He wasn't gonna be a 672 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: superstar that needed to shoot all the time. And the 673 00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 2: way that Rick Carlos says, five guys come on in 674 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 2: and game one one of the NBA Finals and it works, 675 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 2: I mean the guys that he plays the same for 676 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: the other side, on Dagnaut's side, I mean they go 677 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: deep as well. 678 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: Yeah A J Mitchell, you called that too. We're gonna 679 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: see Mitchell, are we. Yeah? We saw him early. 680 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't play all that well, so they yanked 681 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 2: him and he didn't come back right, And. 682 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: We started the second quarter with two starters on the floor. 683 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: That's sort of crazy when you think about it, from 684 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: both teams, from both teams, of the ten guys out there, 685 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: only two of them were starters. It was Sakham and 686 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: J Doe were the only guys out there at that point. 687 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: Everybody else is from the bench. 688 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: I thought we'd see more Kenrich Williams. Why wasn't Mudflap 689 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: out there? 690 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, not a lot for him. Yeah, any other you know, 691 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: game takeaways, big picture takeaways. We'll get to random notes 692 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: and have some things to say about the broadcast in particular. 693 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 2: But yeah, I can't wait. Yeah, I mean that's going 694 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 2: to take a while, so I think we should just 695 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: go to that. 696 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, we can go to that, because obviously 697 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,479 Speaker 1: we just hope these games are like this Game one. 698 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: There'll be a special. 699 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 2: Man, There'll be some basketball time even in these random notes. 700 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 2: It's gonna happen, baby. 701 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: All right, JD. Let's do it random notes, Random Yeah. 702 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: I want to start by talking about the lack of 703 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: Finals pageantry, h with this broadcast. What is the NBA? 704 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: What is ABC doing here? A lot of people on 705 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: Twitter pointing out and I think rightfully, so if you 706 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: just turn this on and looked at it, besides the 707 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: little gold accents on the score bugs from ABC, you 708 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: would have no clue that this is really an NBA 709 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: Finals game. 710 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: You wouldn't that's a good point. 711 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: There's the lob dcal on the stanchion which you can 712 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,640 Speaker 1: barely see, yep, and that's sort of it. And I 713 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: know they have like a patch on the back of 714 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: their jerseys, but not on the front because that's where 715 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: we gotta put the sponsors. This is weird. This is 716 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: like really really strange. Back in the day, of course, 717 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: we had the big Larry O'Brien dcal at center court. 718 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,239 Speaker 1: It looked awesome. I have no idea what we went 719 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: why we went away from this. We had it for 720 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: like five or six years. Okay, it's gone. Where people 721 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: slipping on it? Is that the issue? Okay? Whatever. Then 722 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: the league brought back remember that cool final script from 723 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: back in the day. I remember we used to have it. 724 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: They went to like really basic, ugly, generic ones. It 725 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: was like, bring back that cool final script. So they did, 726 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: and that was on the floor at times. That's nowhere 727 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: to be seen. And then also on top of this, 728 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: we're get no player intros, we get no anthem, we 729 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: get no real hype videos. Again, it just feels like 730 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: a Saturday night game on ABC in March, and that's 731 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,400 Speaker 1: not what they should be doing. It's really perplexing how 732 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: much they just mail it in and how little they 733 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: like lean into the to the moment until like again, 734 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: like making this a really big deal, like a regular 735 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: Monday Night Raw is Monday Night Raw. Then watch WrestleMania. 736 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 1: You know, within five seconds of watching it, Oh, this 737 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: is special. This is the big game. Same thing with 738 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Why why are we Why are they 739 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: doing this? 740 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 2: It's a fair question. I don't know why. I don't 741 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: know why. They just don't put Larry O'Brien back at 742 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 2: center court. Now. It doesn't have to be a monster, 743 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: it doesn't have to do put it somewhere. Well, I 744 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 2: would put it as an extension if you want. Okay, 745 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 2: see in this instance, being the logo and being exactly 746 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 2: like it was, all you kind of have to do 747 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: is put Larry under it a little bit, like at 748 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 2: least something there. It doesn't have to be huge. 749 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: We don't even need it actually on the floor. If 750 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: we're so concerned about guys slipping, put it in virtually 751 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: for the millions of us watching. 752 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, just a line just on center court, in that 753 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 2: line in between the logo and the sideline, like under it, 754 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 2: yeah something. 755 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:46,280 Speaker 1: Put something, yeah, or I was thinking even this is again, 756 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: I like that ABC with the score bug they lean 757 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: into like the gold right, Okay, that at least is 758 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: something and it's a nice little touch. Why don't we 759 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: do that with if they don't want to put a 760 00:34:55,120 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 1: giant lob decal, make the Okklahoma City thunder logo, like 761 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: make it gold right, like like lean into that. Do 762 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: the same thing when we go to Indiana. 763 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 2: Some gold accents. 764 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, like just give it something so we know that 765 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: this is a little bit different. This is like the 766 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: most important games of the year. 767 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,240 Speaker 2: You're right, it is odd that it's hiding on the stanchion. 768 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 2: It's like it's kind of not there. You don't really 769 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 2: see it. No, I saw it, and I. 770 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: Tell you, people didn't even know it's on there. No. 771 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: I saw it and the athletic slack as it was happening, 772 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 2: and people were pointing out a Saraman Zach Harper pointing 773 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 2: out that it's on the stanchion, and I was watching. 774 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 2: I said, I didn't even notice that it was there. Totally, 775 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 2: I guess the other So there are two things. Yeah, 776 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 2: make it a little bit more glamorous, and it would 777 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:40,959 Speaker 2: be nice to have the intros. 778 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: No exactly, NBC, they better give us the interest. And 779 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: I don't even know who's going to have the finals. 780 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: I think maybe it still sticks with the ESPNS. 781 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 2: I think so. Yeah, because they're talking about Doris not 782 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 2: being there next year, it must be ESPN. 783 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 1: It's just so weird. 784 00:35:55,800 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 2: Potentially not being there is hyped. Yeah, yeah for commercials in. 785 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 1: That ye, the answer is always going to be because 786 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: we need more money from our commercials. 787 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: And that's and that's why watching the NBA app in 788 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 2: game arena is awesome because you get to watch it. 789 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 2: The atmosphere, oh yeah, you do, you do, and some 790 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 2: arenas are so good, and the whoever's controlling the audio, 791 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: they just know how to pump it pump good music 792 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,959 Speaker 2: and it's just fun. Yeah, you feel it. You feel 793 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 2: it way more like you're sort of at a playoff game. 794 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: It was like a bigger deal. It should because it is. Yeah, 795 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: but again, you wouldn't really know that last night watching 796 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: it on ABC like I did, like like the crowd, 797 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 1: it's amazing, but it's like nothing visually, nothing of the hype, 798 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: nothing Like you're just like, oh, this is just another 799 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: game that's not what we should be having. That's like 800 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: you're not selling your league very well in my opinion. 801 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and you can't really hear the fans the 802 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 2: same way as if you were in the building. You know, 803 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 2: it's not the same. Although they have great fans, and 804 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 2: that was the only why I'm bringing up because that 805 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 2: was the only thing that makes you feel like, Okay, 806 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 2: they're standing out. These fans are awesome. I try and 807 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 2: make the sound as good as I can. In my house, 808 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 2: I put whatever a little surround speakers I got. I'm 809 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,319 Speaker 2: there with my hands connecting this orange and red wire. 810 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 2: But I want to hear it. I want to hear everything, 811 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 2: and I want to turn it up. But a lot 812 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 2: of the time it's not conveyed. It's just it doesn't 813 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,879 Speaker 2: translate because sometimes the audio levels you can't hear the Yeah, 814 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 2: but I just want to Yeah, I would love to 815 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 2: hear the intro sounds, the interest and. 816 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: You want to hear I want to be able to 817 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 1: mute the TV and know it's an NBA Finals game. Yeah, 818 00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: And you'd be hard pressed to do that last night. 819 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, visually, the visual aid would be nice. 820 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: And a lot of people pointing this out. I know 821 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 1: our guy Mike workanoff at the athletic I saw him 822 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: tweet it. It's odd that the NBA puts so much 823 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 1: into making the NBA Cup so distinct visually that those 824 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 1: games look more distinct than the NBA Finals. 825 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was definitely thinking that, as you said, 826 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 2: as you were talking about WrestleMania. Yeah, the fact that 827 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 2: they make one sort of tournament thing. Yeah, it is word, 828 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 2: the entire court is different. Why they don't do a 829 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 2: little bit a little bit different? 830 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, kissed me off.

Is a clear foul, But he did 853 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:21,240 Speaker 2: hit the ball first. I'm just wondering, am I seeing? 854 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 2: Am I seeing the same thing as am I going nuts? 855 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 2: They didn't mention for one second at all that Cruso 856 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 2: did touch basketball and then he then hit on and 857 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 2: wore arms, which totally true. But r J knows, Doris 858 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 2: knows say something about hitting the ball. That's all I 859 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 2: That's all I wanted. And that was a quick one there. 860 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 1: Uh, this is a clip we have to play for you. 861 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: It was making the rounds Halliburton on Sports Center last 862 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: night with SVP after the game, and we're gonna play 863 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: it sound up for everybody here on YouTube and the 864 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: podcast listeners. Pay close attention to Halliburton's voice. Here's the 865 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: thing is like, we've had to win in so many 866 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: different ways all year. We've had so many weird wins, 867 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: turn the regular season, turned the playoffs. 868 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 3: So with that change, because we're here in the finals, 869 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 3: it's not it's not changing. 870 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 2: So uh me only just keeps saying at it and 871 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 2: just keep believing and uh you know that's the result 872 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 2: we get. 873 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: So this is something that's come up a million times before. 874 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 1: This guy's like voice changing yeah while he's talking. 875 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 2: It's amazing. 876 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 1: And Karl Anthony Towns is a culprit with this as well, 877 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: but this one is like one of the best ever 878 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: because he's talking about changing while his voice then changes. Yeah, 879 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: it goes completely different and then sort of comes back 880 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 1: to where it was. 881 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. That's when I jump over to my speakers and 882 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 2: I say, my speakers. 883 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:37,400 Speaker 1: Are affed up, Danny, did you touch this? Halliburton's voice 884 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: is going weird. 885 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: Come on, it is crazy. It's like, is he doing it? 886 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 2: It feels like he's doing a purpose at times because 887 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:46,880 Speaker 2: he's done it so many times. But he can't be No, 888 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 2: I think it's just sock. 889 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: It's just him. It's just don't I don't even know 890 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: if it's a tick.

Is it a kdyak? You know what's 908 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 2: going on there. But we did have one of our 909 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 2: fans chime in. 910 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: And this is a thing that he does, This is 911 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:45,320 Speaker 1: the thing. 912 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 2: Over the years.

Awesome experience, best seats we've ever 921 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 2: had to an NBA game.

However, we both came 923 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 2: away with one impression that we couldn't wait to talk 924 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 2: about upon getting in the car. Rick is pretty mucusy. 925 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 1: Huh. 926 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 2: The man is spinning, snorting, picking, and wiping. All came long.

Don't let them see that on TV. 979 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 2: Maybe you need to have them out more because I've 980 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 2: been watching again, I've been watching after the John Halburton 981 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 2: can't come court side, had the flashback of Massi u 982 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 2: Jerie getting pushed when he went to go celebrate the 983 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 2: championship in twenty nineteen by the officer. He pushed him 984 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 2: and MASSI didn't have the badge or the credential out. 985 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 2: He had to kind of tucked away, so you have 986 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 2: to pull it out and show it to him. So 987 00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe if the cop sees it, he 988 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: doesn't push him. 989 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: Whatever. 990 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 2: Just it's fine. It's totally fine. I don't see a 991 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 2: problem with it either.

Then 995 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: you lose five away. It's like they played every game, 996 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 2: and I thought, if they played in the fourth quarter 997 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 2: like this is our this is our anthem, if it's. 998 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: Like we're going to win this thing, maybe switch it 999 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: up one a lot. 1000 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:05,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it works. 1001 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 1: I don't know when we're gonna find out the ratings 1002 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,680 Speaker 1: for game one and how quickly they turned that around. 1003 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 1: But I was thinking, in watching this game and how 1004 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: many people are and they should because holy crap, what 1005 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:22,399 Speaker 1: a game one that they should count dogs watching the game. Yeah, 1006 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 1: it was a bit of a stoner thought, for sure, 1007 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 1: But I was thinking, like I was like, how many 1008 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:30,799 Speaker 1: dogs are watching Game one in the NBA Finals right now? Like, 1009 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: let's I don't even know what the number would be. 1010 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 1: I don't even know where to start. But anyway, Luna 1011 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: was well, Luna was in the room while I was watching. 1012 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:39,879 Speaker 1: We have a photo here.

Anyway, you got anything. 1057 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 2: Else, No, Well, I will just say lou Dort running 1058 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 2: through screens I find amazing because he doesn't even know 1059 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 2: what's coming sometimes and he just was able to penetrate it. 1060 00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 2: He just he's such a truck or transformer or whatever 1061 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,040 Speaker 2: you want to call him. He's just so strong and 1062 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 2: he doesn't see it coming, but he's able to go 1063 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:02,439 Speaker 2: through it. 1064 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 1: But then sometimes just decides to like take pretend like 1065 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: he was shot at I have a bullet. That's the 1066 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: weirdest thing with him. 1067 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, when he doesn't when he doesn't know what's coming, 1068 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 2: he can't flop right right, But he's so strong and 1069 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 2: so able to go through it. So somebody should put 1070 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,800 Speaker 2: those together. I think it's just fun to watch him again, 1071 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 2: like I don't know what's coming, I'm just running to 1072 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 2: the side, and he's so so much like a truck or. 1073 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple of got popped by picks.

Like you know, they were like high out 1077 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: there on the floor and people weren't talking enough. Maybe 1078 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 1: it's too loud with those damn fan clapper things that 1079 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 1: I couldn't hear each other saying laugh right whatever, this 1080 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:51,600 Speaker 1: guy's got crushed on a couple. 1081 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I am surprised. Apparently they do turn up the 1082 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 2: volume in Okay, see, I mean turn up the volume 1083 00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 2: and audio wise, they just literally like a little bit 1084 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,719 Speaker 2: of fan you know, just audio just like they turn 1085 00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 2: up the volume. They just literally play but. 1086 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,320 Speaker 1: You mean volume as and turn up the music or 1087 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: turn up like fake fans. 1088 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, fake fans, i'd say, whoa, yeah, how do you know? Well, 1089 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 2: it came through in the slack. I do want to 1090 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:20,840 Speaker 2: make sure it wasn't music that they turn up, but 1091 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 2: it came through on our athletic slack that volume turned up, 1092 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 2: which it doesn't seem like you would need it at all. 1093 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 2: And at this arena, Well, I'm gonna double check as 1094 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:32,880 Speaker 2: you bring in their next topic. 1095 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: I well, I mean I don't have anything else randomly 1096 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: or really from the game. I'm just hype for Game 1097 00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: two that Sunday night. We will all be back here 1098 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,879 Speaker 1: in the Classic Factory on Monday to break down Game two. 1099 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: The guys are headed back from Okay see, so we 1100 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 1: won't have an immediate reaction pod on on Sunny and 1101 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,839 Speaker 1: we'll see if, like OKAC can do what they've done 1102 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: many times in this postseason. They're four no after losses, 1103 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,200 Speaker 1: so they've always come back with a win. They've averaged 1104 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,560 Speaker 1: in those games a victory of like twenty and a 1105 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 1: half points, so they usually beat downs they come back. 1106 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 1: They haven't. You know, they lost consecutive games twice during 1107 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 1: the regular season, like they almost never do, so you know, 1108 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: but it's it feels like sort of a must win. 1109 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:14,399 Speaker 1: Not that they can't win on the road because they're 1110 00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: really good, but you know, it's that Game two situation 1111 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,480 Speaker 1: where you're down one oh, and the Pacers have put 1112 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,319 Speaker 1: a lot of teams already in this postseason in this 1113 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 1: position and a couple times taking a too o lead. 1114 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,279 Speaker 1: So I can't wait for Sunday. 1115 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 2: Night, Absolutely not. And Okay sees fans will be bumping 1116 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,040 Speaker 2: whether or not this artificial sound or not. I'm not sure. 1117 00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I don't want to 1118 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 2: spread that misinformation, but I do love Okay Sees fans, 1119 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 2: and I liked how Adam Silver, actually, who did his 1120 00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 2: pregame media session, talked about all these ratings the whole 1121 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 2: Hey are enough people watching and how people say it 1122 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 2: to him on the street if they see Adam Silver, 1123 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 2: what's going on with the ratings? He says. The goal 1124 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 2: is that market size essentially becomes irrelevant, is the whole goal. 1125 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:02,720 Speaker 2: And you know, he looks that the way technological changes 1126 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 2: have changed the meeting of the differential from one city 1127 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 2: to another doesn't really matter. He says, Yeah, there's seven 1128 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 2: hundred thousand people in Okay, see nine hundred thousand people 1129 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 2: in Indianapolis, so not small markets. But even if there 1130 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 2: were another million people or so in a city, when 1131 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 2: you're talking to a global market that sport like the NBA, 1132 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 2: when you're being followed by billions of people around the world, 1133 00:52:19,160 --> 00:52:22,600 Speaker 2: those incremental changes become pretty meaningless. Doesn't matter, That's what 1134 00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 2: he's saying. 1135 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,759 Speaker 1: In the end, stop asking Silver about rating and start 1136 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 1: asking him about why don't we have the Larry O'Brien 1137 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 1: trophy on the damn floor of the finals. Start doing that, everybody. Yeah, 1138 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: people will get them to do it. 1139 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 2: The game is super popular and now that we're watching 1140 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 2: it's streamed. He just feels like the game is getting bigger, 1141 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 2: Like it's getting bigger in Europe, like when you're playing 1142 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: with Jan Mahemi and it really doesn't matter, but it 1143 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 2: does matter if you do know that it's the NBA Finals. Yeah, 1144 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 2: I do agree of a visual and some sort. 1145 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: Of pumps up.

As you can see, Jad's gonna throw up here. 1171 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:05,400 Speaker 1: The Kicks draw inspiration from Jalen Williams's favorite nineties cartoon, 1172 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: Pinky in the Brain God. I loved that cartoon. It 1173 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 1: features a white upper contrasted by lucid lime, lucid pink. 1174 00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,799 Speaker 1: Quite the colors here. So my question for you guys, 1175 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 1: what other cartoon inspired sneakers would you like to see? 1176 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 2: Tests Well, I'm going quite literal because the Tasmanian Devil 1177 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 2: is what I'm often called. Like Silvers asked about ratings 1178 00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 2: I'm asked about the Tasmanian Devil or people you know 1179 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,759 Speaker 2: collate my name with the Tasmanian devil. Why can't you 1180 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 2: just put Tasmanian Devil on the side of shoes. I 1181 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 2: think it would make me play harder. If I happen 1182 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 2: to look down and I see whoa that thing, that 1183 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 2: cartoon that's able to spin, I would play harder. So 1184 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 2: get the Tasmanian Devil on some shoes. 1185 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:53,360 Speaker 1: Do they exist? 1186 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:53,960 Speaker 2: Maybe? 1187 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,479 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like they might have to.

Yeah, I like that. 1227 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:46,799 Speaker 1: I do like the ThunderCats. I had that in my 1228 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: notes as well. Remember that clip we found a Sean Marion, 1229 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 1: how horny he was for But I'll go with we 1230 00:56:56,840 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 1: need some teenage mutant ninja Peardles yaka Purtle needs his 1231 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: own shoe and it needs to be teenage mutant Ninja 1232 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 1: Turtle inspired, and I think he could really lean into it. 1233 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 1: Every quarter wears a different colorway.

Next one. 1237 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: Doris Burke's spot on ESPN's lead NBA broadcasting team is 1238 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:28,240 Speaker 1: not guaranteed for next season, according to our own Andrew 1239 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 1: marchand ESPN executives will debate if they feel Doris Burke 1240 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 1: is better on a two person team as opposed to 1241 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,160 Speaker 1: a three person team, so we'll see. My question though, 1242 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:41,360 Speaker 1: is when is having less of something a good idea. 1243 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,720 Speaker 2: When you go to a buffet, Oh okay, Oh yeah. 1244 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 2: I see all the trays and I think I'm gonna 1245 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,240 Speaker 2: eat from all of them. And what I ended up 1246 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 2: doing every single time is I probably take from like 1247 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 2: half of them. I sit down and then I get 1248 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 2: up and I think, okay, time to get the other 1249 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 2: one too. I'm almost too full to actually do it. 1250 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,320 Speaker 1: Oh. I thought you were gonna say you enjoyed the 1251 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:05,920 Speaker 1: ones you had so much that you're like, well, I 1252 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 1: might as well just get more of that, because I 1253 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: know I've done that too. 1254 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: You're right, Yeah, I go both ways. Yeah, sometimes I 1255 00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 2: take too much of everything. Sometimes I just stop after 1256 00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 2: that first one. Sometimes I will just get a dessert, 1257 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 2: call it a day. So you think there's just two, 1258 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:25,480 Speaker 2: there's a way too many. 1259 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1260 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's hard. It's hard to take it all in. 1261 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, if the buffet is good, it's a good buffet. 1262 00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 3: There's a lot of variety and a lot it's all good. 1263 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 1: But he's almost saying the opposite to him, Really good 1264 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 1: buffet has less options. I know it sounds contradictory, but 1265 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 1: maybe he's right. I sort of. 1266 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 2: Agree with Yeah, it all changes, it's all. It all 1267 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 2: depends on the place. But even still not every trade. 1268 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 2: You're not gonna love every tray. 1269 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 1: Right. The problem is the buffet is like it has 1270 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 1: to have a million things because it wants to please everyone. 1271 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,560 Speaker 1: Exactly what we're asking for is just a personalized buddy. 1272 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:01,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, which you can do. What you can do. 1273 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:02,920 Speaker 2: You just picked the foods you. 1274 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 1: Want just to sit down and don't worry about the 1275 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: other one. 1276 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,640 Speaker 2: That's yeah, yeah, that's how do you do it? 1277 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the last buffet I was at, I 1278 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 3: had sushi and prime rib on my plate at the 1279 00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:13,720 Speaker 3: same time. 1280 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 2: Wow, Georgia. 1281 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 3: This was in Mexico. 1282 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 2: Actually, I take it back. I feel like Atlanta is 1283 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 2: similar that we do the fusion. You know, they're trying 1284 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: and they spread themselves a little too thin, right right? Yeah, 1285 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 2: remember the. 1286 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 1: I guess it was a breakfast buffet that we did 1287 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: in Vegas the one time. 1288 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 3: How could I forget? 1289 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 1: And it was like eighty dollars Yeah. 1290 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 3: And we didn't even finish because it was the day 1291 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 3: Lebron left the Calves, was it really?
