00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: a wedge over the entire Christmas break, but Jimmy Butler

21
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: came through last night with a up and under soft

22
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 2: layup like Weggie.

23
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 3: Yeah. The underside Weggie. I would call it, yeah, just

00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: to get in a little play on underside. Oh nice, Yeah,

25
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 3: you know thegie weggies go.

26
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 5: Yeah.

27
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: So Weggie tracker dot Com has updated and we're now

28
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: at twenty four, our first weggie of twenty twenty three.

29
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: I love to see it and back on pace there

30
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: to fifty two. It was fifty before that one.

31
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 3: And gotta feel good when you hear Breen, Mike Breen,

32
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 3: the definitive broadcast or the broadcaster, everyone listens to say

33
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 3: the word weggie. Yeah, feels so.

34
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,639
Speaker 2: And then they moved on very quickly. That's fine, that's okay,

35
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: that's what okay.

36
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 3: It's it's respect. It's almost an afterthought now.

37
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: So in the yeah, yeah, yeah, good point. All right,

38
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 2: so twelve games, good point, we divided and conquered these Well,

39
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 2: we'll find out if we did, but we have like

40
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: an interesting code. A take a clip maybe about all

41
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: twelve games from last night. We're gonna start with your

42
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: Chicago Bulls snapping the nets twelve game win streak. Yes,

43
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 2: Katie scored forty four, so we told you to hit

44
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 2: the over. You would have made a lot of money

45
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: on that. The twenty eight and a half.

46
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, twenty eight in the first own. That's awesome.

47
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but your team pulled it out in the end

48
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: there trade, you know, really really solid win here for Chicago.

49
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 6: I can't believe it. The balls are back, oh, in

50
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 6: the playing tournament. Yeah, they're back in the playing tournament.

51
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 5: Right now.

52
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 6: We've stood forty four from Kevin Grant and beat another

53
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 6: top East and Conference team. Bowls are two to one

54
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 6: against the Celtics, two to oh now against the Nets,

55
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 6: two to and oh against the Bucks, and don't get

56
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,959
Speaker 6: me started on those dubious games against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

57
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 6: This was a balanced effort for Chicago, though they never

58
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 6: trailed after the first few minutes of this game. Twenty

59
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 6: two points for Demarta Ros and he had ten in

60
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 6: the fourth quarter doing his fourth quarter clutch thing as usual.

61
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 6: Only thirteen for Zack Lavine. You get thirty five points

62
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 6: from your two leading scorers. Usually not a great recipe

63
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 6: for Chicago, But big game for Vucci baby twenty one points.

64
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 6: Seventeen came in the first half. They were playing through him.

65
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 6: Is mostly hook shots, it felt like from bouch in

66
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 6: the first half, so I was loving it. Seventeen for

67
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 6: Io assumuo. He was all over the place, had a

68
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 6: sick chase down block on Kevin Durant. But I think

69
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 6: the biggest story for Chicago is twenty two points for

70
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 6: Patrick Williams. Three three pointers, made, seven for seven at

71
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 6: the line, seven rebounds. This was his best game of

72
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,839
Speaker 6: the season. He was the guy tasked with guarding Kevin

73
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 6: Durant for most of this game. They asked him about

74
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 6: his incredible defensive performance in Zach Levine, but he's like,

75
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 6: didn't Katie.

76
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 5: Have forty four points?

77
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 6: He's like, Pap played a great game, but Katy still

78
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 6: went for forty four. Nonetheless, Williams was at least making

79
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 6: it tough on him. Only sixteen for Durant in the

80
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 6: second half, that's kind of a win right there, and

81
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 6: only five in the fourth quarter for KD. That was

82
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 6: a takeaway for me. I can't believe he didn't get

83
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 6: to fifty points after twenty eight in the first half.

84
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,119
Speaker 6: Some of the shots he were making he was making

85
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 6: as well. Williams draped all over him, falling over. He

86
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 6: should have gotten a lot more free throws than he

87
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 6: took last night. I think kat probably could have gotten

88
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 6: to fifty, but that was a nice win for Chicago.

89
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 6: So a couple other takeaways from this one. Winning without

90
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 6: big games from Drozen and Levine, that's huge.

91
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 5: For the Bulls.

92
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 6: Nick Claxton, this guy's awesome. Eleven points, six rebounds, three blocks.

93
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 6: He was getting put in the basket in the first

94
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 6: half by Vucevic, but he was making plays with as

95
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,799
Speaker 6: athleticism and his brain, I thought in the second half.

96
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 6: Biggest takeaway though, for me, don't come to Chicago with

97
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 6: a win streak. Snapped the twelve gamer here for the

98
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 6: Brooklyn Nets famously snapped the twenty seven game heat wins

99
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 6: streak way back when skeets twenty thirteen, which is really

100
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 6: what got me thinking. The Lakers thirty three game win

101
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 6: streak from nineteen seventy one to seventy two maybe the

102
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 6: most unbreakable record in the NBA. Miami's win streak was

103
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,719
Speaker 6: ten years ago. That feels like one hundred years ago already.

104
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 6: There's no way a team is going to put in

105
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 6: forty games of effort to break the Lakers win streak,

106
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 6: you know from fifty years ago. We got to blame

107
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 6: the Warriors for this one. They had their twenty four

108
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 6: game win streak to start the fifteen sixty seventh sixty

109
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 6: fifteen sixteen season. They obviously went seventy three and nine.

110
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 6: Then they lost in the seventh game of the finals,

111
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 6: and everybody decided it ain't worth winning in the regular

112
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 6: season because a team lost in game seven of the finals.

113
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 5: That's crazy to me.

114
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 6: But it does seem to me that thirty three games,

115
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 6: nobody will ever break that.

116
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's all a good one. Thirty teams. It's

117
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 3: tough to do. This ain't an eighteen league anymore, so, Yeah,

118
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 3: that's a good one as probably one of the most

119
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 3: unbreakable records. You got your wilts up there, your one

120
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 3: hundred point game. I know people are talking about, now

121
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 3: can you go get that one hundred pointer?

122
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,239
Speaker 5: Still tough?

123
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 2: Isn't that more likely to be broken than yeah, saying

124
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: team winning thirty four? It would take executive games for sure.

125
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 3: I think three pointers the four point lines coming see

126
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 3: a later Hunter point game. I Vouch and Williams were impressive.

127
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 3: They were carving up the nets, you know, the nets

128
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 3: coming in with their win streak, maybe not playing d

129
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 3: all that hard. I think that was the problem in

130
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 3: the first half. Sixty nine points for the Bulls in

131
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 3: the first half getting to the rim. If there is

132
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 3: a problem with this Nets team, it is the interior defense,

133
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 3: and I think that kind of showed through. Included in

134
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: that is the rebounding Bulls just just getting on the glass.

135
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 3: Clockson did pick it up in the second half, and

136
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 3: if they're gonna do it in the playoffs, they're gonna

137
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 3: need Durant to play larger than life. There's a there's

138
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 3: a Backstreet Poys reference. I didn't didn't mean to do that,

139
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: but it happened anyway. So you know, they came in

140
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 3: a little lacks of days ago. Sixty nine for the

141
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 3: Bulls in the first half. Their stars though, got sixty

142
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 3: nine points Durant and Irving sixty nine combined, and then

143
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: the rest of the team not doing a lot outside

144
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 3: of Seth Curry, who's bawling, who is feeling really good.

145
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 3: But the Bulls have been playing better and maybe this

146
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 3: is good for them in terms of the trade market

147
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 3: for Vouch. Is a great game, great game for Voch,

148
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 3: Show it off, Show it off.

149
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 2: Hookshot.

150
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll get to it a little bit later. We're

151
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 3: gonna have a trade rumors episode a little bit later today.

152
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 3: Vooch is gonna play a part.

153
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got a whole second podcast coming later this afternoon.

154
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 2: But let's keep going with the games last night. Let's

155
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: go from the Bulls to the Raptors. Really really strange

156
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: game on ESPN, nationally televised game.

157
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 3: They're never going to give us a game again.

158
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 2: You know, I know the Raptors. We won't see them

159
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: for a decade on ESPN. But Johannis had a season

160
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: high twenty one rebound. Yeah, a lot of turnovers too,

161
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: but the Bucks held on somehow in overtime to beat

162
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: the Raps. I want to read you a couple lines

163
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: from the athletics Eric Kareen this morning about this game.

164
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: First one from Eric. The first line of the article,

165
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: what in the ever loving heck was that? How can

166
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: a team I'm continuing to quote Eric here, how can

167
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 2: a team score twelve points in an entire quarter He's

168
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: talking about the Raptors, and then twenty in the final

169
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 2: two minutes of regulation to force overtime. That's what happened

170
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 2: in this damn game. And how can a team hold

171
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 2: its opponents to thirty nine point eight percent from the field,

172
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 2: take twenty eight more field goals? Then its opponents and

173
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 2: still lose. And the answer is the Raptors. Baby, yeah,

174
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: really really odd game. Gross to start, I mean, not

175
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: that the Bucks were lighting it up there in the

176
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 2: first quarter either. The Raptors were in the game for

177
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 2: crying out loud and then my Milwaukee pulled away and

178
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 2: it looked like it was over. I'm sure so many

179
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 2: people turned off this game. The Raptors were down like

180
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: fourteen points with like seventy seconds or something to go, Like,

181
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: It's like insane that they even got it to overtime

182
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 2: and gave themselves a chance. But in the and Giannis

183
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 2: made one hell of a play where the Raptors threw

184
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: everybody at him, I mean, probably too many guys. I

185
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 2: don't know why Fred left the corner to come over

186
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 2: to the other side, but anyway he does, and Giannis

187
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 2: just fires an incredible falling down laser to Alan in

188
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 2: the corner there, who hit down the shot that ultimately

189
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: won it for them. But weird game, weird, weird, and yeah,

190
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: I mean good things to take away. I guess if

191
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: you're Raptors fans that they put up some fight, they

192
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: showed some heart, got it over time, but then a

193
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 2: lot of issues where they can't shoot. They are still

194
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: small and you're playing against the Bucks, so you're a

195
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 2: lot of teams are too small, but they definitely are.

196
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 2: And uh, no contributions whatsoever from their bench for the

197
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: second straight game. Seven points off of the bench.

198
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 3: So yeah, weird one all around. And you called him

199
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 3: Alan That also weirded me out.

200
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 5: He's not y, looked like ray there.

201
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 3: I guess yeah you did. No, I don't want to

202
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 3: talk about this game. And zero zero shot making that

203
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 3: was the problem.

204
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, big problem.

205
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, he gotta hit some shots. That's sad. That's against

206
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 3: against the Bucks team that is shorthanded themselves.

207
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, there was no.

208
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: Tree, there's no Middleton, no Ingles, there's yeah. Yeah again,

209
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: I can't believe they tied it up. It's it's like

210
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 2: go watch the comeback, the wild comeback. You know. Scottie

211
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: Barnes was like you wouldn't even know he was playing

212
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: for like three quarters of that game and then went

213
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 2: nuts in the end and started attacking scoring over Brook Lopez.

214
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: But you know, it was too little, too late. Van

215
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: Vliet sort of gave it his all. I thought he

216
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 2: was really scrappy last night. He missed a couple of

217
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: big shots at the end. There. It's a it's a

218
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 2: demoralizing loss. You know, it just illustrated again the no

219
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 2: shooting and and uh no size and no bench. I mean,

220
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna talk a lot about the Bulls and the

221
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 2: Raptors on this second podcast later today, about the idea

222
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 2: of like, you know, blow it up type trades, like

223
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: rebuild type trades, and also maybe retool trades to like

224
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 2: sort of inject you know, some new players into these

225
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,719
Speaker 2: rosters if you want to still believe you can sort

226
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 2: of make a run. But I think that'll come up

227
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 2: more on that podcast.

228
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 3: Let's say, Yeah, I hate saying that you can just

229
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: watch the last two minutes of a basketball game because

230
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: the other forty six minutes do matter a lot of

231
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 3: the time. But last night, a lot of the games

232
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 3: it didn't really matter. It just came down in the

233
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 3: last couple of minutes. And a lot of these games

234
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 3: and Scotty, maybe there's got to be some sort of device,

235
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 3: some sort of technique to make him think his back

236
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 3: is against the wall at the beginning of the game,

237
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 3: because he comes alive.

238
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 2: He does this a lot.

239
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: At certain points, He's he just kind of floats. It's

240
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 3: not a good year too, not a good year too

241
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 3: for Scotty.

242
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 2: Joannis had twelve turnovers in this game, which is a

243
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 2: hell of a lot. He filled up the rest of

244
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 2: the box score. But since the NBA began tracking turnovers

245
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: in seventy seven to seventy eight, only three players have

246
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: committed more turnovers in a single game.

247
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 5: It's a lot of turnover.

248
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 2: It's a lot of turnovers. I believe Harden's done twelve before.

249
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 5: He had a playoff game with twelve.

250
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but your leaders in most turnovers in a game

251
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: of all time, you want to take.

252
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 5: I would put Westbrook.

253
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 2: He's not. No, he's not.

254
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 3: This is tough, special special night for this one individual.

255
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 5: No special turn overnight.

256
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 2: I mean, okays, no, one guy you've probably never even

257
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: heard of. He's the leader with another guy who's a

258
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: Hall of Famer John Drew in seventy eight. So basically

259
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 2: when they started tracking these, he's like, he got fourteen

260
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 2: in the game.

261
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 3: Not a Barry bro not John and Fame point.

262
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 2: Guard though, No, no, uh what else can I give you?

263
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: What?

264
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 3: Kyle?

265
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 2: No? No, no more more are contemporary Mark Jackson.

266
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 5: No, he's got a.

267
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 3: Championship he's got it.

268
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 2: Champion yep, yeah, yeah, got a championship in the last

269
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 2: twelve years. Rondo Parker No, no, no, no, a triple

270
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 2: double guy before you know, he's like sort of Westbrook,

271
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: Jason west Jason Kid had fourteen in a two thousand game.

272
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 3: And then, uh so this this record harder to break.

273
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 2: No, this will be broken.

274
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 3: Yeah at twelve.

275
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 2: Maybe somebody's exciting. It's almost shocking it has it. You're

276
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: right like that John Brew and Jason Kidd of the record.

277
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: Still it's a little weird.

278
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 3: Top three records to be broken. Hundred points, the win streak,

279
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 3: thirty three game win streak or this one. Okay, that's

280
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 3: a short.

281
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 2: You're final one. You'll never ever in a million years,

282
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,720
Speaker 2: guess it. He's a Hall of Famer. Two, he's a shooter.

283
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 2: He's got a military haircut. Chris Buller, Chris Mullet, you're.

284
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 5: Like, you would never pay.

285
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, thirteen in eighty eight. Anyway, okayway, let's keep it

286
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 2: going because we'll talk a lot more about the Bulls

287
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 2: and the Raptors on our second podcast. Letter today. Okay,

288
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 2: test to you. Uh you had the assignment of the

289
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: Calves Suns game, which was sort of like similar to

290
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 2: that ugly Bucks raptors start at least the love scoring.

291
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, twenty nine points combined in the first quarter. So

292
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: I was watching the jerseys. I was watching the Calves jerseys,

293
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 3: their third jersey, the City Edition jerseys, not getting enough love.

294
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 3: It's a nice white, which is hard to do. Nice

295
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 3: and white don't often go together in terms of basketball jerseys.

296
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 3: But they've accomplished that. Trey mentioned as soon as they

297
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 3: came out. We make our videos about the City Edition jerseys,

298
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 3: white with the prominent gold and then the sneaky light blue.

299
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that little baby blue baby the land.

300
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 3: You know them.

301
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 2: They're nice.

302
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: You know, the marketers are high five in each other

303
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 3: when you can sneak in baby blue into a jersey, right,

304
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 3: baby blue is the color. And now it's all over

305
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 3: the floor too, the matching City Edition floor. It looks good.

306
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 3: So while these two teams were combining for twenty nine points,

307
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: that's all I was looking at, just aesthetics. This is awful, Mitchell.

308
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 3: Coming off seventy one, Calves were having a bit of

309
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 3: a letdown. They said that they could have an emotional

310
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: letdown coming into this game. It happened Suns led most

311
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: of the way on the road in their very nice

312
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 3: city edition jerseys. By the way, they're blues. And the

313
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 3: Calves were down midway through the fourth quarter, and really

314
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 3: it was a remake of an Eastern Conference playoff game

315
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 3: from the nineties. Nobody scoring, and a second year player

316
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 3: came through. Scottie Barnes has not been coming through for

317
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 3: the Reps. Evan Mobley has not been receiving a lot

318
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: of love outside of Cleveland, I would say, and Donovan

319
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 3: Mitchell had all the attention on him four seconds left.

320
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: Evan Mobley could have just hung out, but he relocated

321
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 3: to the free throw line, received the pass, was one

322
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 3: of seven I believe to that point of the game,

323
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 3: received the pass, buried it for the game winner, as

324
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 3: Mitchell led the comeback to tie it up at that point,

325
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 3: and then there you go, Mobley finishing the job. But

326
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 3: the Calves, if they want to be taken as a

327
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 3: legitimate playoff contender, they got to cut out this comeback stuff.

328
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 3: They do it all the time. They go down big

329
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 3: and it's not gonna work in the Postseason's it's a problem.

330
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 3: They love doing it. They just love doing it. They

331
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 3: are so fricking good at home. They're now eighteen and four,

332
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 3: which is I think goes at hand in hand. I

333
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: mentioned the comebacks with playing at home because I think

334
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 3: they just they are a little comfortable and then they

335
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 3: figured it out. Obviously Darius Caarland's not there and that

336
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 3: would help. But this team is built for the playoffs.

337
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 3: We're talking about the Bucks, we talk about all these

338
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 3: good Eastern Conference teams. They've got the superstar that can

339
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 3: pull it out at any time. They've got the bigs

340
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 3: that can play defense, and they've got just a scrappy

341
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 3: bunch in a real deep bunch. So you could see

342
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 3: the playoff wins coming. But these big leads have got

343
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: to stop anyway. Evan Mobley again, I think it's different

344
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 3: than Scotty Barnes because Scotty Barnes's usage has gotten up.

345
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 3: He's had the ball more in his hands, so you

346
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 3: expect him to get better. Evan Mobley has been basically steady,

347
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: although he's become more efficient. His numbers are down a

348
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 3: little bit, just basically pointsberg are down a little bit,

349
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 3: but his usage has gone down, and I think he's

350
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 3: having a fine season. Yeah, and he'll he'll break out

351
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,959
Speaker 3: at some point, but as soon as Donovan gives him

352
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,199
Speaker 3: the ball, he knows what to do with it.

353
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 2: That was a nice pass. Yeah, damn, I mean you think,

354
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: you sort of think Mitchell's going to take that shot,

355
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: and he's earned the right, no doubt, to take that shot.

356
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: But finds Mobley wide open at the at the free

357
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 2: throw line and he splashed it. The Suns too, man,

358
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: who they are reeling right now, Like you said, they

359
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 2: led most of this game and probably should have got

360
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 2: the victory. Mckill. Bridges has picked the worst time ever

361
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,160
Speaker 2: to go ice cold in terms of shooting the ball,

362
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 2: with Booker being out and this team needing some wins.

363
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: Over his last eight games, Bridges is averaging twelve points

364
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 2: per game, shooting thirty seven percent six of those eight

365
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 2: games under forty percent shooting in those games. The last night,

366
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 2: it was like a three for fifteen Affairs.

367
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 3: And they drew up the potential tying game shot for him.

368
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 3: He hit it off left, He went left, and yeah,

369
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 3: you're right, bad, tim bad bad. You could see though

370
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 3: closer on one end, no Booker on the other. Obviously

371
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 3: killing them because they'm not playing terrible, but they just

372
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 3: can't score without Booker, He's he's just so important.

373
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 2: Hunter and Collins star as the Hawks beat the Kings seventeen. Real,

374
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 2: I mean, this is another entertaining finish test, is right?

375
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 2: All these crazy things.

376
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 6: It was a fun one and the Hawks needed this one.

377
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 6: They'd lost four straight, coming in five of their last six.

378
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 6: The last time out, they blew the huge lead to

379
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 6: the Warriors, couldn't close it out in the fourth quarter

380
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 6: or overtime, And it honestly almost happened again because the

381
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 6: Kings really surged back in this one late in the

382
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 6: fourth quarter, turned a seven point Hawks lead into a

383
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 6: four point Sacramento lead with just a couple of minutes left.

384
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 6: So Atlanta's down four about a minute left, and they

385
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 6: just started hunting mismatches. First, it was Trey Young running

386
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,479
Speaker 6: a pick and roll, got the rookie Keegan Murray on him,

387
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,479
Speaker 6: blew right by him for a floater and one. On

388
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 6: the next play, it was Dejonte Murray off an inbounds play.

389
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 6: Pretty smooth play.

390
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 5: By Nate McMillan.

391
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 6: I think it was DeAndre Hunter kind of cuts to

392
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 6: the corner and then Murray as the inbounder, just cuts

393
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 6: straight to the hoop a little bit of a gift

394
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 6: foul to be quite honest on the Sibonis there, but

395
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 6: Murray makes both free throws. Next time down the court

396
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 6: for the Kings, de Jante Murray just ripped Darren Fox

397
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 6: took it the other way bucket to ice things, and

398
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 6: then weird stuff from the Kings. They're down three at

399
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 6: this point, and they went for a kind of quick two,

400
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 6: but not really at all, like they took way too

401
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 6: much time to get into the action for Darren Fox

402
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 6: to take a little jumper and then he missed. Sabonis

403
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 6: grabs the ball. They probably got four seconds left, he

404
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 6: puts it back up. Neither of them made it, but

405
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 6: nice little showcase I thought for John Collins and DeAndre

406
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 6: Hunter twenty two each. For these guys, my guess is

407
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 6: that both or either would be gettable if somebody is interested,

408
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 6: and they both played pretty well last night, so the

409
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 6: Hawks absolutely needed a win if they would have blown

410
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 6: this one again even worse times down here in Atlanta,

411
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 6: but they held onto it.

412
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on the Hawks pulling this out.

413
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 3: Not a lot, no, to be honest. Now they pulled

414
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 3: it out. Yeah that's about it. I hate to say it,

415
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 3: but the end of games with the Kings are super entertaining,

416
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 3: and they scrap. They make mistakes in the fourth quarter,

417
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 3: There's no doubt about it.

418
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: But Fox has been pretty clutch for a majority of

419
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 2: the season. He was he made some areas and there's

420
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 2: somebody to play from the Hawks there. In this one,

421
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 2: it was bad. I got a hot take for you.

422
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 3: Okay.

423
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 2: The New York Knicks are the Sacramento Kings of the East.

424
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 3: Huh?

425
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 2: Record wise pretty similar? Where they are in the standings,

426
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 2: pretty similar. We debated on yesterday's show how many Kings

427
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 2: All Stars are there going to be this year? Is

428
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 2: it going to be some bonus and Fox?

429
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 3: You wish too?

430
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 2: The same thing happening with the Knicks tasks? Is it

431
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 2: going to be Randall and Brunson? Is it just gonna

432
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 2: be one of them tortured fan bases. I can keep

433
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 2: going light the beam with the Kings, bing bong with

434
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: the Knicks. Some similarities, But the Knicks got the win

435
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 2: last night. They pulled it out in the end one

436
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 2: seventeen one fourteen.

437
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 5: Oh.

438
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,959
Speaker 2: They both scored one hundred and seventeen points last night.

439
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 2: Kings in a lot Snickson a in Brunson, though career

440
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:10,239
Speaker 2: best thirty eight, But it's not I hate this all right,

441
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 2: temper boys about to show up? Why do we do this? Why?

442
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,479
Speaker 2: I get it. It's a regular season high thirty eight

443
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 2: for Brunson, that beat his previous regular season high. But

444
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 2: that's not his career best in a basketball game. Yeah,

445
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 2: it was in the playoffs. He scored forty one last

446
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 2: year in Game two against the Jazz. I don't get that.

447
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,199
Speaker 5: Just tells you it's a different game in the playoffs, skeats.

448
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 2: But isn't then that even more impressive that he did

449
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 2: it in the playoffs. It's his career bess is forty one,

450
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 2: it's not thirty eight his career high. I mean in

451
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 2: the regular season, yes, But anyway, he was awesome, just

452
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: continuing to be that rock for them. Seven board, six

453
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 2: assists too. He made the go ahead basket with like

454
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 2: three minutes ago, then he hit a couple jumpers. I

455
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 2: mean it was you had Clyde on the call just

456
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 2: saying like just he was literally calling for because he

457
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 2: was like pointing out the knicks at times, like kept

458
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 2: driving into traffic and making life more difficult, and they're like,

459
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 2: get a matchup you like, And then cook them and

460
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 2: like that's a score. Yeah, and that's what Brunson did

461
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 2: a lot of times again, splashing those couple jumpers late.

462
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 2: But in the end, Spurs still had chances to tie

463
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,919
Speaker 2: this game. They showed off. You know how young they are,

464
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 2: I guess is one way to put it. In their

465
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: final two possessions with opportunities to tie, Jeremy Sohan, he

466
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 2: just failed to inbound the ball. Now, I don't even

467
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: think it was all on him.

468
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 5: No, no one was open, No one was open, and

469
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 5: nobody moved. Yeah maybe the first three seconds, yes.

470
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, so that was a violation, Okay, five seconds.

471
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 3: Did they have a timeout?

472
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 2: I think they did too, Yeah, they did, pretty sure.

473
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 2: Pop at one point was like a last second ditch

474
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 2: effort to try and call it. But yeah, it was

475
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 2: a he had five seconds for yeah, and then Fournier

476
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 2: he's little pair. So they left the door open a

477
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 2: little bit. They're down three, the Spurs are and your guy,

478
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 2: Quentin Grimes played good defense on Kelvin Johnson, thank you,

479
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 2: but it was not a great final possession and it

480
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 2: was like, you could have done better. So, yeah, they

481
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 2: had a chance to tie it up. A couple times,

482
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: but the Nicks pulled it out and they are the

483
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 2: Kings of the East.

484
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 5: Light, the bing bo Light, the bing Bong is that

485
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 5: they should do. Doesn't sound great, but.

486
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 2: That's a good point. But yeah, you know, like you

487
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:37,159
Speaker 2: were scoffing at my possibility of like Brunson is, like

488
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 2: he has played at an All Star level. I don't

489
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: think they're both gonna make it like, don't get me wrong,

490
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 2: but Randall has played really really well. Yeah, Brunson is

491
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 2: more important, I believe as a player. So I think

492
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: there's cases to be made for both of them. Again,

493
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 2: I don't think they're ultimately there unless there's a lot

494
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 2: of injuries.

495
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,640
Speaker 6: But what do you think I'll make a case for you. Okay,

496
00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 6: Jalen Brunson should start the All Star Game. I can't

497
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,239
Speaker 6: believe I just said it, But if Knicks fans had

498
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 6: any self respect, they would vote in their first point

499
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 6: guard that they've had in twenty years into the All

500
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 6: Star Game. There's a spot there for the second guard.

501
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 6: We've talked about it a lot of times. I've heard

502
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 6: New York is a big city. I've heard the Knicks

503
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 6: have a huge fan base. Absolutely, get your votes in,

504
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 6: Get out.

505
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 5: To the ballot box. He's an All Star caliber player.

506
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 5: He deserves.

507
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 6: He's a deserving All Star if he makes it, And

508
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 6: if the Knicks fans could ban together, they could get

509
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 6: him to at least be the number two vote getter.

510
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 6: I do believe amongst Eastern All Star guards. Then you

511
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 6: got to get some gifts from the coaches and the players. Yeah,

512
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 6: but okay, he should at least finish top three I

513
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 6: think in Eastern Conference All Star guard voting, and if

514
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 6: he doesn't, that's a disappointment and an indictment on all.

515
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 5: Knicks fans like, yeah, nice, you're right.

516
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, And the marketing team's got to get behind it

517
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 3: because they can influence the players too by saying this

518
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 3: guy is our All Star over Julius Random because that

519
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 3: would that would help. That would help a also, and

520
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 3: even if he doesn't become a starter, then the coaches

521
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 3: can vote him in. Anyways, there is a spot, you're right,

522
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 3: besides Donovan Mitchell, I think, yeah, second guard spot, Joe.

523
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 2: And Brown, it's Kyrie's going to get a million votes. Yeah,

524
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 2: and Haliburton, you know, has played really really well too.

525
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 3: Trey Young is alive.

526
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brunt saman he was awesome in this a regular

527
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 2: season career high of thirty eight and big baskets down

528
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 2: stretched right final game in this block because we've got

529
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 2: like a not even halfway through, but Jowell Embiid didn't

530
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 2: play and the seventy six Ers still beat the Pacers

531
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 2: twenty six in over one in overtimes.

532
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm bead sore foot and he had a bad

533
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 3: back recently as well that he was playing through. And

534
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 3: I thought, what about that contract he signed way back

535
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 3: when that there was a clause basically if the Philadelphia

536
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 3: seventy six Ers deemed his back or foot was the

537
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 3: in that was holding them out, that they would receive

538
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,919
Speaker 3: money back that they wouldn't all his money wouldn't be guaranteed.

539
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 3: This is the final year of Embiid's contracts, so we

540
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 3: can say goodbye to that contract that he signed in

541
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 3: twenty seven where the Sixers protect themselves from foot and

542
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 3: back injuries, those two specific things. He missed two seasons

543
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 3: with foot injuries way back when. And it was a

544
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 3: contract signed by Brian Colangelo, and I just like saying

545
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 3: Brian Colangelo's name. It's been a while and this is

546
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: the final year of the contract, so come back BC

547
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 3: or else we may not be saying your name for

548
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 3: a while. Anyway, Embiid obviously has played through that extension

549
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 3: has been signed. He is all good going forward. But

550
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 3: the Sixers not all good going forward or in this game,

551
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 3: I should say, without their fourth quarter closer, because they

552
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 3: gave up a lead. They just needed him to finish

553
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 3: the job. They're up eleven midway through the fourth, Pacers

554
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 3: going around to take the lead up for a minute

555
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 3: left and yeah, you just had to tune into the

556
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 3: final few minutes in games last night. This was damn entertaining.

557
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 3: Sixers were falling apart. Really, MAXI missed the three in

558
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 3: the corner. Look like it could be done because Pacers

559
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 3: are up four. But then the Pacers are at mid

560
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 3: court and are kind of handing the ball off to

561
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 3: each other, and Maxie sees an opportunity to steal that thing.

562
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 5: Yeah it's like I'll take that.

563
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, he jumped the gap, boom steal score two point game.

564
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 3: Then a bad possession by Haliburton on the other end,

565
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 3: rare bad possession by Haliburton. Sixers get running, Maxie, missus,

566
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 3: Harris put back tied. We're going to ot and then

567
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,439
Speaker 3: a very fun ending in the end of overtime as well,

568
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: because Harden at the line up one twenty eight seconds left,

569
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 3: he could stretch the lead to three misses both though,

570
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 3: so the Pacers looking for the go ahead bucket at

571
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 3: the other end, and Harden makes a huge play that

572
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 3: is so perfect, hardened because he kind of falls asleep

573
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 3: guarding Ben Matherin in the corner. You know, the classic

574
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 3: falling asleep while you watch the ball. Your guy backcuts

575
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 3: and Mathern got the ball underneath, but Harden recovered just

576
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 3: in time. Perfect Harden block by Harden underneath the hoop.

577
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,479
Speaker 3: You don't see that very often. And the Sixers win.

578
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 3: And the Sixers have won eleven st eight games at home,

579
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 3: and they say to everybody out there, we're not done.

580
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 5: We're not done.

581
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 3: Only two and a half games back out of the

582
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 3: one seeds wow one through one through five in the

583
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference, Boston Milwaukee Nets, Cavs, Sixers separated by only

584
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 3: two point five games. I know Trey and I deemed

585
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 3: the Sixers would be the best team in the Eastern Conference.

586
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 3: We deemed the same thing about the Nuggets in the West.

587
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: Didn't seem like it was going to happen for the Nuggets.

588
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 3: They have turned it on the Sixers also turning it

589
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 3: on we could be right, a very smart we got

590
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 3: a chance. We'll see what happens here.

591
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 2: Well, then that's going to help in Beat's case to

592
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 2: win MVP, because you keep saying it's going to come

593
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 2: from a number one seed.

594
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: Yeah for sure. Yeah, yeah, the old runner up two

595
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 3: years in a row for Joel embiid Nice, that's a

596
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 3: nice storyline right there.

597
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: And the minivan tass your guy Georgie and Yang what

598
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 2: was he doing three or four from deep?

599
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 3: Yeah through again.

600
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: And you also had the Anthony Milton who's I mean,

601
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 2: remember he started the season so poorly for them.

602
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 5: Oh wow.

603
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 2: Remember this was supposed to be a huge move by

604
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 2: Maury and everyone's like he hasn't done crap. He recently

605
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: last couple weeks, a lot of those wins at home,

606
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,479
Speaker 2: he's been solid, you know, maybe got it going when

607
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 2: Max he was out and there was more opportunity there.

608
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 2: But he's back now. But he hit five threes melted

609
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 2: to two and they need that's shooting. I mean, em

610
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: Bead's not there. So it's a different team last night,

611
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,959
Speaker 2: a different structure, but you need some gunners around your

612
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 2: big guy inside the.

613
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 6: People who are gonna shoot it to PJ. Tucker will

614
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 6: shoot a decent percentage, but he's gonna take maybe two

615
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 6: a game. So another guy like Melton who's just willing

616
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,719
Speaker 6: to let it fly has been great for the Sixers

617
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 6: basically since they moved him into the starting lineup because

618
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 6: of injury stuff. And he ain't coming out at this

619
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 6: point because he gives you so much effort and he

620
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 6: gives you a little bit of juice from the three point.

621
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 5: Line as well.

622
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, hit a big three at the end there in overtime,

623
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 3: and Trez did come in to support Joel Embiid's absence.

624
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 3: Eight of nine a great, perfect Tred's game.

625
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 2: Absolutely all right. We're halfway through last night's action. Will

626
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 2: take a break when we come back. The other six

627
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 2: games from the NBA. Don't go anywhere, all right, Still

633
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty six watchers for a while.

634
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 5: Six.

635
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I don't like that.

636
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 6: I like it.

637
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 2: It's evil.

638
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, me too.

639
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: All right, Okay, so now we're now we have too

640
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: many people watching live, so we need ten people to

641
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 2: just go just leave them. Okay. Uh six other games?

642
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 2: Who the beast uh to uh to address? From last night?

643
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,479
Speaker 2: Trey get it started because we had Anthony Edwards scoring

644
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 2: thirty two. The Wolves win another one in a close

645
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: game against the Blazers one thirteen, one O six.

646
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 6: A devilishly good performance by Anthony Edwards. He's on a

647
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 6: heater here like he's in hell himself, and he had

648
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 6: the Blazers in hell last night thirty two points thirteen

649
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 6: in the fourth quarter. He's been in takeover mode in

650
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 6: this game against Denver as well. Also had a non

651
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 6: smooth assist to Rudy Gobert underneath the basket late to

652
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 6: ice the win. In the last ten games, Anthony Edwards

653
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 6: twenty nine points per game, seven rebounds, five assists, forty

654
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 6: eight percent from the field. He's stepping up with Karl

655
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 6: Anthony Towns on the shelf right now. Unfortunately, Timberwolves only

656
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 6: four and six, but the good news for them the

657
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 6: teams ahead of them are not playing well either. The

658
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 6: Blazers have lost four of six, Sons have lost seven

659
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 6: of eight, Jazz have lost five straight. The Warriors, they

660
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 6: are balling, but they're gonna get out of the play

661
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 6: And I do believe Timberwolves right now up and down season,

662
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 6: but their half came back of the tenth seed. Heading

663
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 6: into the second half of the season, they don't want

664
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 6: to be where they were at last year. But it's

665
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 6: honestly not so bad that they're at where they were

666
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 6: last year. Considering the way things have gone with injuries,

667
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 6: with having to figure out new geometry, with having to

668
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 6: figure out a whole bunch of different role players. It's

669
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 6: been a weird season, no doubt for Minnesota. But this

670
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 6: little stretch with Karl Anthony Towns out has at least

671
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 6: gotten Anthony Edwards on track. We'll see if they're able

672
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 6: to keep that going whenever Towns does come back. But

673
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 6: they're treading water at least right now, and as the

674
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 6: teams ahead of them are sinking, maybe Minnesota has a

675
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 6: chance here to celebrate another play in game victory.

676
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 5: We shall see.

677
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 3: The spacing is what it's all about. Looks nice right

678
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:29,719
Speaker 3: now with Anthony Edwards just going wherever he wants, patrolling

679
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 3: that lane because there's only one big what's gonna happen

680
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 3: soon ish and whence Karl Anthony Town is coming back?

681
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 2: The update is on him. Yeah, in his return.

682
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 3: I guess it's a little bit weeks away. Yeah, it

683
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 3: looks different. It looks very different right now.

684
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 2: So do you think Karl Anthony Town's gonna be traded

685
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 2: in the off season?

686
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 3: Off season?

687
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it can't be traded this year because of

688
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 2: his extension, I think so, yeah, right, like it, I

689
00:32:59,000 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 2: don't know.

690
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 5: Why.

691
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you trade old Rudy.

692
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 2: You're gonna get a lot less for Rudy.

693
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's no doubt.

694
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you'd get a hell of a return. I

695
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 2: would still think for a player like Carlin Town. So

696
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,479
Speaker 2: even though he has his faults, but yeah, just let

697
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 2: anthe be the Yeah, I mean, I'm just like that,

698
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, Like, are you starting to see

699
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 2: enough here to go? Okay, let's just let's just decide

700
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 2: this is Anthony Edwards team, and let's build around him,

701
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 2: and let's get a haul back and whatever we get

702
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 2: in return for Carling the Town. So somewheer. Look, that's

703
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 2: a long way away.

704
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 3: It's up to Carl. It's up to Carl if he

705
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 3: comes back and performs. If he doesn't, then I can

706
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 3: see what you're saying. Okay, fair enough, that's interesting, Rudy.

707
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 3: How is he going to hold up over thirty? Is

708
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 3: he still going to be able to track guys from

709
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 3: the three point line because they're going to depend a

710
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 3: lot on him. He'sh that trade. Eh, that's all. That's

711
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 3: all I got.

712
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 5: Good win.

713
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 2: They needed these wins. Yeah, and La Trey said, you know,

714
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 2: a couple teams ahead of them struggling, and so they

715
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 2: need they need all those like one games you can

716
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 2: make up in one night where like you win your team,

717
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 2: abob you loses. That's good and uh, Anthony Edwards is

718
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 2: on one right now. Let's keep going. John Rant and

719
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 2: the Grizzlies overpower the Hornets for their fourth straight win.

720
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 2: Here's all anyone is talking about from this game because

721
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,160
Speaker 2: it was a blowout and Grizzlies destroyed the Horns John

722
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 2: Morant wasting twenty seven to twenty eight seconds on the

723
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 2: game clock, and we're gonna show it to you here

724
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,240
Speaker 2: in YouTube. To set the scene, for the audio listener.

725
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 2: Grizzlies up about thirty with four minutes left in the

726
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 2: third quarter, an inbounds pass slowly rolled in. It actually

727
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 2: comes to a complete stop inside the key at the

728
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 2: Grizzlies end. So John Rant just lets it sit there,

729
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: stands over the ball. The Hornets for twenty five seconds

730
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 2: stayed back until finally Terry Rozier went and like pressed

731
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 2: them enough to pick up the ball. So good, but

732
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 2: this had like people like suddenly changing the rule book

733
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 2: and stuff last night and people saying it was disrespectful

734
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 2: and going nuts over this, like John Morant taking the

735
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 2: walk the dog. We've seen Chris Paul do it for

736
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 2: a decade plus. Uh, you know, Marcus Smart does it

737
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 2: from time to time.

738
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 3: Other guys do it this level.

739
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 2: But this is another level where the shot clock it

740
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 2: just doesn't start until a player touches the ball.

741
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 5: So the count that's even more important, and the acount

742
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 5: of course.

743
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 2: So I mean, hypothetically, if a Hornets player does not

744
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 2: come and force Ja Morant to pick up the ball,

745
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 2: the entire quarter could run out.

746
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 5: They should have just let it run. Yeah, what's the point.

747
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 3: Running clock? I loved it?

748
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean it's very, very funny. It's wild to see.

749
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: I can't ever I know they were talking about it

750
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 2: on the broadcast, I can't ever remember seeing it to

751
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 2: that extent where twenty plus seconds of like he is

752
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 2: just standing, He's just like, I'm just gonna wait until

753
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 2: you come. We're up huge.

754
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 5: We're trying to kill time.

755
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 2: This is the whole point for us being up this big,

756
00:35:57,640 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 2: the Hornets. Why are they waiting.

757
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,720
Speaker 5: Back there, like, guy, get set up on defense.

758
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 2: I mean, it makes it feel like they must have

759
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 2: just been like, well, he's gonna pick it up eventually,

760
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 2: just bring it up, let's go.

761
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 3: But it's so good nearly half a minute, as you said,

762
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 3: almost a half a minute. You don't see it.

763
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 2: So do you think they should change the rule and

764
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 2: start like the eight second clock even if you don't

765
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 2: touch it, or just like no need to and just

766
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 2: like bring a player up if you want to, like

767
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 2: get the guy to bring it up.

768
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 3: Like I don't, I don't see the need to change

769
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 3: the rule.

770
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 2: No, no, I don't either. I think this is hilarious.

771
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 2: It forces the defense to like, well, go play defense.

772
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,280
Speaker 3: Then, yeah, that's the thing. It's great watching the Hornets

773
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 3: bench too, because one coach is okay, gives him the

774
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 3: signal this come to this side of the floor and

775
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 3: U and a player who says to the referee, is

776
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 3: that what call him on something.

777
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 5: On wasting side?

778
00:36:54,960 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, an unsportsman like foul Callcause if you really agregious

779
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 2: with it, if you.

780
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 5: Love this, soon I don't think I love it.

781
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 3: Well, you.

782
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 2: Just never happens again.

783
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 5: No, because it happens like once. Yeah, exactly. I don't

784
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 5: think we need to combat this rule.

785
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 6: But the Hornets need to play basketball like that's more

786
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 6: than anything that's embarrassing for the Hornets, I think, rather

787
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 6: than a problem with the league. It just shows you

788
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 6: the Hornets are checked out of this season. Kind of

789
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 6: understandably so. But I will say, LaMelo ball through a

790
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 6: hell of a pass last night.

791
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 5: It was very cool.

792
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,240
Speaker 6: He wrapped around looking like Doctor J with his famous layup.

793
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 6: But it was an assist to the top for McDaniels

794
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 6: that was cool. Also a very weird assist. I think

795
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 6: it was Steven Adams like chuck the ball way up

796
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 6: ahead to Santi al Dama who threw an alleyup to

797
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 6: John Morant. But John Morant was like coming from the

798
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 6: right wing and he caught the ball like fifteen feet

799
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 6: out and just shot an allubed floater jumper. Yeah.

800
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of weird assists.

801
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 5: It was just a weird game call that halftime, I guess.

802
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you think we could see those assists in

803
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 2: volume four of Gift Wrapped?

804
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 5: That one belongs in there, no doubt about it.

805
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 2: All right, we'll get it in the dock and add

806
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: it to the mix.

807
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 5: Thanks man. My birthday's coming soon.

808
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, right up, yeah, right right around the corner.

809
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 3: You're like a month away.

810
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 5: Birthday season. Yeah, it's like it's like the trade deadline season.

811
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 5: You know.

812
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 6: Trade deadline's not until February as well. But we're talking

813
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 6: trades all the time right now.

814
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 2: We'll be talking about them on our second podcast coming

815
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 2: up in mirror hours. All right, let's keep it going.

816
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 2: Task Sadeek Bay beats the buzzer with a three as

817
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 2: the Pistons beat the Warriors one two one nineteen. Another

818
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 2: very entertaining ending.

819
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 3: Yes, going from that bad, bad ending, which wasn't much

820
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,800
Speaker 3: of an ending there with the Grizzlies and the Hornets,

821
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,800
Speaker 3: to a wild one here, and it looked bad for

822
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 3: the Pistons because Clayon Thompson hit a three to tie

823
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 3: the game with one second left.

824
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,439
Speaker 2: A play call on that that was a cool play.

825
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,360
Speaker 3: We got a short coming with cool play calls by coaches.

826
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 5: Because that was this guy thinks in YouTube short.

827
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 3: We got to stop doing it. It's just annoying. Now

828
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 3: we're talking about records, not oh yeah yeah, but we

829
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 3: all are, we all are yeah.

830
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 2: So I'm now thinking about making a YouTube short of

831
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 2: you thinking about making YouTube shorts.

832
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 3: That's a good one. That's a good one. I'll take that.

833
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 3: I will. I will scrub every show since the beginning

834
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 3: of our season here to note when anyone talked about

835
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 3: a short, and we'll put it in a short anyway.

836
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 3: So it was a pretty cool play call to see

837
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 3: Anthony Lamb sprinting towards the opposite sideline. Play cleared as

838
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 3: he sprints the opposite sideline, ball inbounded way over to him.

839
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,480
Speaker 3: Clay comes off as screen give him the ball, tie

840
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 3: game all right, So things looking bad for the Pistons

841
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 3: one seconds left, and it also looked bad for this

842
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 3: play call't I wouldn't include this in the short. Dwayne

843
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 3: Casey's play call of boy and mcdonovic going to the corner.

844
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 3: It looked like the ball was supposed to go to him,

845
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 3: and it was. Sadik Bay was supposed to set the

846
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 3: screen for Boy and mcdanovic. He said, screw it, and

847
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 3: it doesn't look good. I want the ball. It comes

848
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 3: to the top of the arc, grabs it within one second,

849
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 3: rotates three hundred and sixty degrees, drops a three ball

850
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 3: in for the game winner. He called his own number essentially,

851
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 3: and on some teams, the guy who's supposed to get

852
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 3: the ball could be pissed off at Sadik Bay. Not

853
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 3: on this team. Brian was very happy for him after

854
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 3: the game, saidik Bay has had an odd season. Yeah,

855
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,399
Speaker 3: this is year three for him. When we talk about

856
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 3: the Pistons, it's all Kate, it's all Ivy, it's even

857
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 3: Isaiah Stewart or Duran. There's so many guys that get

858
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 3: named before Sadik Bay. He's been in and out of

859
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 3: the starting lineup as they've looked for an answer. And

860
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 3: we talked about even guys who are sort of surprising

861
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,520
Speaker 3: had surprising fifty point games a little earlier this season.

862
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 3: Sadiq Bay had one, or earlier this week, I should

863
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,839
Speaker 3: say seek Bay had one last year. He also hit

864
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 3: a game winner almost a year to the day New

865
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 3: Year's Day twenty twenty two against the Spurs, which was

866
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 3: right before Trey Herby's birthday. On the twenty two birthday season,

867
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 3: exactly every day.

868
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,439
Speaker 2: Is either right before Trey Herbery's birthday or after Tray

869
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 2: Herby's birthday. It just depends how close.

870
00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 3: So wild for him, He's I like him. He's had

871
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 3: a bad year shooting the ball, but he's got a

872
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 3: Kobe mental, He's got a Kobe Mamba tattoo on his shoulder,

873
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 3: he's got the green streak in his hair because he's

874
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 3: a villain like the Joker. And if you're not reading

875
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 3: James Edwards on the Athletic, you should be because he's

876
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 3: the best at covering the Detroit Pistons. So I took

877
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 3: those two tidbits from him from today. Good right up on.

878
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 3: Bay has had a bad season, but yeah, I think

879
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 3: he's a player. We talked about, you know, the up

880
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 3: and coming teams, the Rockets, the Thunder, the Magic and

881
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 3: the Pistons debated that yesterday, and the Pistons have their

882
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,320
Speaker 3: star and I think Sadik Bay could be and should

883
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 3: be a supporting member of that cast on the other side.

884
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 3: Warriors five to one on this homestand now without Curry.

885
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 3: Two more games at home without Curry, and then they

886
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 3: hope to have him back right after that when they

887
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,280
Speaker 3: start their six game trip next Friday in San Antonio.

888
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 3: They've only got two games till then, So things looking

889
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 3: up for the Warriors, and a nice moment there for

890
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 3: the Pistons.

891
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 2: And Clay's still hot, I mean, could have been the

892
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: hero if they go to overtime and pull out the

893
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:39,919
Speaker 2: victory there, But another awesome game from him with no Curry, Trey,

894
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 2: we had Shrewder propelling the Lakers past the Heat one

895
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 2: twelve one nine, No Lebron, no Ad, no Lonnie Walker,

896
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,480
Speaker 2: the fourth no Lonnie Yep, but they got it done

897
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,799
Speaker 2: in the end and get this victory here national TV

898
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 2: game premium opponent in the Miami Heat. The Lakers started

899
00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 2: Dennis Shrewder, Austin Reeves, Thomas Bryant, wants Scono Anderson, and

900
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: Patrick Beverley and they beat a full strength Heat team.

901
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:06,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, what's better than this?

902
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 6: Guys being dudes thirty two for Shrood fourteen in the

903
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 6: fourth quarter. Kind of an Isaiah Thomas Moment spraining his ankle,

904
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 6: screaming and then still putting the team on his back

905
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 6: down the stretch nine for nine from the free throw line.

906
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 6: As well, he was instrumental in a big run that

907
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 6: turned the game from the heat point of view to

908
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 6: the Lakers, because the heat kind of slacked in the

909
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 6: first half, but they really turned it on. I thought

910
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 6: in the second half it looked like they were gonna

911
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 6: pull out the win. But thanks to Dennis Shruter and

912
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 6: thanks to Thomas Bryant dunking everything in sight. Great win

913
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 6: for the Lakers, who have now won three straight games.

914
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 6: They're only a game back from that tenth seed right now.

915
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 6: They basically got to outplay Utah and Minnesota for the

916
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 6: rest of the season. Only three and a half games

917
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:48,919
Speaker 6: back from the sixth seed.

918
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 5: I'm just saying, just saying they got a chance still.

919
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 6: I think they're probably gonna end up in the play

920
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 6: in tournament. But to get a win without Lebron and

921
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,040
Speaker 6: without Ad anytime.

922
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 5: That has it's good news for the Lakers.

923
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 6: So I don't know if you're gonna be relying on

924
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 6: thirty two from Shruter twenty one from Westbrook to take

925
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 6: you to these w's but it happened last night, so

926
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 6: really really good win for the Lakers and a bad

927
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 6: loss honestly for the Heat.

928
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 3: Yeah.

929
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're road trip here, but no excuses for sure,

930
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 2: especially with all their guys basically playing.

931
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 3: The Lakers are five and five since Anthony Davis went

932
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 3: out respectable. We thought that they would fall off. They

933
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 3: are absolutely not dead and coming off a road trip

934
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 3: five gamer where they were three and two, very respectable.

935
00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 3: They could have been flat first game home. Oh it

936
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 3: feels like you're still on the road. The legs are dead.

937
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 3: They played hard. All those dudes played hard. Dennis Shrewder

938
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 3: he was limping around midway through that fourth quarter, as

939
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 3: he said Trey, and according to ESPN, Darvinham, head coach

940
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 3: of the Lakers, said I'm gonna take you out. You're

941
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 3: limping around. You're done. He said, no, I'm good. Actually,

942
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 3: this is what Darvin Ham said that Dennis Shruder said

943
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 3: to him. He said, I'm good. Actually, I'm not gonna

944
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 3: be good. I'm gonna be great. Come on, is that

945
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 3: what happens?

946
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 2: I highly do.

947
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 3: I mean, there was apparently there was, That's what Darbnham said.

948
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 3: I mean, there was a little gap I think I

949
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 3: I dramat dramatized it, dramatized it for for the audience here.

950
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 3: But uh, he was great. Dude had thirty plus and

951
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,399
Speaker 3: he's got a relationship with Darvin ham I guess being

952
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 3: a player for him when Hamm was an assistant here

953
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:27,760
Speaker 3: in Atlanta and reading this in ESPN, I totally forgot.

954
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 3: So there was that relationship and Truders always said I

955
00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 3: wanted to be his point guard when he became a

956
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 3: head coach. Well he is right now they're going to

957
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 3: need him. It could help. He is a very solid player. Again,

958
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,319
Speaker 3: this team is really you trade mentioned the standings there.

959
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,840
Speaker 3: It's been impressive, it's surprising, and it has been impressive

960
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 3: without Anthony Davis.

961
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 2: Shruder is the type of player in this league that

962
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 2: actually loves when the other star players on his team

963
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 2: are out, Like I think he's, oh yeah, babe, green Light,

964
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,680
Speaker 2: it's my time and he can have games like this.

965
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 2: So he's done this really his entire career, where especially

966
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 2: star players on his squad or maybe out and he

967
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 2: has more opportunity. But it was a big reason why

968
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,480
Speaker 2: they won this one, and they need all the victories

969
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 2: they can get. With eighty out for the foreseeable future.

970
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 2: I'm not even sure we have a time table on

971
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 2: when that guy's returning. And then Lebron missing that one

972
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,959
Speaker 2: who had willed them to some other victories in close

973
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 2: Gamesbury he was going for forty seven, forty threes and

974
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 2: stuff like that, so goodwin well task he already sort

975
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 2: of slipped this in there talking about on yesterday's podcast,

976
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 2: we had we eventually put up a pole, but we

977
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 2: were debating which rebuilding team is best set for a

978
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 2: somewhat immediate turnaround, Like who's got the blueprint? A blueprint?

979
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: Excuse me, h, looking good? That's what architects say, right,

980
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 2: that's a good looking bloody good yeah, build it well.

981
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 5: Two of those.

982
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 2: Teams in the in our eventual poll went at it

983
00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 2: last night. I'm talking about the Magic and Thunder and

984
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,880
Speaker 2: your twenty twenty two to twenty three rookie of the Year,

985
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,360
Speaker 2: Pala Big Carrow. He was awesome. Twenty five points, eight boards,

986
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:01,880
Speaker 2: seven assists. He dunked on SG somewhat late in the

987
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 2: first quarter, and they got the victory. They're missing a

988
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 2: lot of guys because they're still doing this thing from

989
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:11,280
Speaker 2: that game against the Pistons. The altercation between Killian Hayes

990
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 2: and Mo Wagner and a bunch of Magic players leaving

991
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,160
Speaker 2: the bench, and they split them up over two games.

992
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 2: So they're missing like, no, no Franz Wagner, no Move

993
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 2: Wagner again because he was serving his second game from

994
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 2: that suspension. No Admiral Schofield, no Kevan Harris, you know,

995
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 2: missing players. But they took care of the thunder who

996
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 2: had Sga back, And a big part is was Pallo,

997
00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,680
Speaker 2: like he was he's so damn good. And you know

998
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 2: we're debating who's set up best. Well Sga is the

999
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 2: best player of the bunch and all that. But man,

1000
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,840
Speaker 2: I'm happy we're at least making a small case for

1001
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 2: the Magic being maybe set up here because they have

1002
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,440
Speaker 2: this guy, they got the number one pick who through

1003
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:53,919
Speaker 2: forty games is a I mean, he's he's a star.

1004
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 5: Like he's going to be a superstar.

1005
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 2: That's fair, you know, like if he doesn't get injured

1006
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 2: or anything like that. So I thought this was probably

1007
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 2: his second or third best game in a win for

1008
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 2: the Magic this season, because I know he had that

1009
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 2: one against the Celtics where he hit a ton of

1010
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 2: threes and a close win. I think he had six

1011
00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 2: threes in that game. And then he flirted with a

1012
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 2: triple double way back in October against the Hornets. I

1013
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 2: think it was.

1014
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 5: But this in a win.

1015
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 2: This is one of his best games here. So good

1016
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 2: stuff there from the Magic And again we said, like

1017
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:24,720
Speaker 2: the Thunder, the Magic, the Pistons and Rockets. The Rockets

1018
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 2: like they all have some pieces here where you're like, okay,

1019
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,319
Speaker 2: you know they could they could turn this around somewhat soon,

1020
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 2: especially with another draft pick and stuff like that. But

1021
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 2: Magic are They're looking good.

1022
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,800
Speaker 3: You need a star though, and the Rockets are the

1023
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 3: one I think are the fourth of the four because

1024
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 3: Sga is an absolute star. You can say that Paul

1025
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 3: Boncaro is an absolute star. And Kate Conningham, who could

1026
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 3: have been Rookie of the Year if he was healthy

1027
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 3: last year, is a star there with the Pistons, but

1028
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 3: he's not on the floor. So Boncaro And.

1029
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 2: Then you think the Rockets, you're not convinced it's Jailing

1030
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 2: Green or Shanjun.

1031
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 3: Yeah it could happen, though, Well.

1032
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the Rockets here quickly. Because CJ. McCollum

1033
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,840
Speaker 2: led the shorthanded Pelicans past them one nineteen went a wait, No,

1034
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,239
Speaker 2: Zion was the big story really because his first game

1035
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 2: missing from the injury.

1036
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and nobody on the Rockets was starring on this night.

1037
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 3: It was a bad game. There's twelve games in the association.

1038
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 3: Some have to be down in the pecking order. This

1039
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,400
Speaker 3: is the last game for us, Yeah, I would say so.

1040
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 3: I Orlando Okase beats this one. This one yet down because.

1041
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 2: It wasn't score wasn't even as close as it was

1042
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:37,720
Speaker 2: a thirty.

1043
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 3: One point Yeah, this this game was a blowout. As

1044
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 3: you mentioned, Zion out. I do think watching this game,

1045
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 3: CJ McCollum to start the season was their point guard

1046
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,279
Speaker 3: and everything for this team, and it didn't go extremely

1047
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,320
Speaker 3: well with Zion and Ingram out in and out of

1048
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,720
Speaker 3: the lineup. But McCollum has turned it around and maybe

1049
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,240
Speaker 3: he can be the sort of the lynchpin while Zion

1050
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:00,400
Speaker 3: is out brandon Ingram still up, we still don't have

1051
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 3: a return date. He could be the lynchpin around the

1052
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 3: depth that this team still does have. And they won

1053
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,319
Speaker 3: this game and they blew up the Rockets, who are

1054
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 3: a bad team because of their depth. Naji Marshall just

1055
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 3: cutting all over the place, sixteen to seven doing dirty work,

1056
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:22,600
Speaker 3: Willie Billy, Guillermo Hernan Gomez, what is his first name?

1057
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 3: Nobody knows, fourteen and seven, and Dyson Daniels just continuously

1058
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,759
Speaker 3: plays hard whenever he gets put into the lineup by

1059
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 3: Willie Green. A nice steal at the end of the

1060
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 3: first courter. Just a spark blog to go along with

1061
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 3: Josey Alvarado. They just have tough, tough guys. But at

1062
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:43,800
Speaker 3: the same time, Zion Williamson, according to ESPN wog's report,

1063
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 3: could be out a lot longer than this three weeks.

1064
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,320
Speaker 3: It could going to a second month because of the

1065
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 3: severity of the hamstring injury and the tough, skeed starts.

1066
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 3: Now for the Pelicans, okay, easy way thirty point victory,

1067
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,839
Speaker 3: I mean it got to to double digits. They're close

1068
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 3: to ten points. But this was a big blowout victory

1069
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,200
Speaker 3: over the Rockets. But now you got to play the Nets.

1070
00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 3: Then you got to play the Mavericks, Wizard, Celtics, Pistons cast.

1071
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 3: It's going to be a little bit more difficult for

1072
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 3: this team going forward. They do have the depth. It

1073
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 3: would help if Brandon Ingram comes back. But yes, Zion's

1074
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 3: going to be out a while. If we want to

1075
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 3: talk trade deadline all start, he could be that's six

1076
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 3: weeks away. It feels like he's not coming back until

1077
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 3: the trade deadline at the very least. But why would

1078
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 3: you bring him back a week before the All Star Game.

1079
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:34,439
Speaker 2: It's gonna be more rest.

1080
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be into February. So this is

1081
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 3: going to be a tough task. But CJ. McCollum, I'm

1082
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 3: sure is up for it and brandon Ingram. If he's back,

1083
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,360
Speaker 3: then you got two stars. You got two legitimate stars

1084
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:46,320
Speaker 3: with a lot of depth.

1085
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 2: From the Rocket side of things. I see Roberto here

1086
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 2: in the stream team well we got well he's pointing

1087
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 2: out that the Rockets won the game after Steven Silas

1088
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 2: was ejected, and you had brought it up the other day, Like,

1089
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 2: is Silas going to be coaching the Rockets much longer? Here? Yeah,

1090
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,919
Speaker 2: I thought you slipped in it. Okay, it was Tree,

1091
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 2: So yeah, Roberto, it seems like maybe he agrees with you,

1092
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,799
Speaker 2: Like Lucas, they seem to play a little maybe better

1093
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:13,200
Speaker 2: for him.

1094
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:15,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, who knows.

1095
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 6: Sometimes a coach gets ejected to get the team fired up, right,

1096
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,279
Speaker 6: So maybe you give a little credit to Silas there,

1097
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,719
Speaker 6: but they've lost ten of their last eleven And I

1098
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 6: mean Eric Gordon gave the interview where he's like, what improved? Yeah,

1099
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 6: you know, so once the veterans start calling out what's

1100
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 6: happening with the team, maybe that puts a little bit

1101
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 6: of stink on the coach. But also, like when you're

1102
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 6: one of the worst teams in the league, it's kind

1103
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 6: of pointless. I feel like to fire your coach mid season.

1104
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 6: That being said, I don't feel like the Rockets are

1105
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 6: totally getting the best out of the personnel that they

1106
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,919
Speaker 6: have out there. All of their guys are like three

1107
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 6: seasons in the league and under for the most part,

1108
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 6: except for Eric Gordon and Kevin Porter Junior. I guess

1109
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,320
Speaker 6: has a little bit more experience. But it's tough to

1110
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 6: be a first time coach for Steven Silas, especially when

1111
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 6: you're coaching all of these young guys. But uh, you know,

1112
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 6: the Rockets aren't good, there's no lot about it. But

1113
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,440
Speaker 6: but you want to see develop. You want to see development,

1114
00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 6: There's no doubt about that.

1115
00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 3: And they came back against the Pels second unit. That's

1116
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 3: what they come back. Basically, Oh, it was a fake comeback. Yeah,

1117
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:18,360
Speaker 3: the Pels finish that they brought back in McCom and

1118
00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:19,879
Speaker 3: Valanciunis and it was over.

1119
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, good point.

1120
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 5: All right, Well, that's all twelve games.

1121
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 2: We did it. Let's hear what we missed though, Any

1122
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:28,000
Speaker 2: hot takes, any other takeaways from any of those twelve games.

1123
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 2: Let us know when the stream team let us know

1124
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:31,279
Speaker 2: in the comments, tweet them in at No dunk sinc.

1125
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,359
Speaker 2: We'll take our final break here and when we come

1126
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:36,880
Speaker 2: back pick them results and JD has tweeted the night,

1127
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 2: so you know it'll be about basketball.

1128
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:40,839
Speaker 5: All right.

1129
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 2: Back with the boys here, let's start wrapping up this pod.

1130
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 2: Pick them results last night. Good call by you guys,

1131
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 2: taking the Bulls who had some points to play with.

1132
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 2: They were the dogs. Plus five and a half straight

1133
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 2: up win. Snap that nets twelve game win streak. Trey

1134
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 2: perfect in the month, in the year, I should say,

1135
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,720
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty three. Taskts his first victory here in January,

1136
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 2: and we're tied because I'm one and two as well.

1137
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,279
Speaker 2: Four games on tonight. Where we going?

1138
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,520
Speaker 3: That's right? I felt nostalgic looking at the schedule tonight.

1139
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:14,919
Speaker 3: I yearned for the years of yesterday and by years ago.

1140
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 3: I mean like three or four years ago. And there's

1141
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,279
Speaker 3: four games on the schedule. That's perfect. Four games on

1142
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,240
Speaker 3: the schedule. Two are a TNT doubleheader here on a Thursday.

1143
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:25,800
Speaker 3: That's all you need, baby, And we're going with the

1144
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 3: second game of the TNT schedule, the Clippers versus the

1145
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,760
Speaker 3: Denver Nuggets in Denver. So the Nuggets, see, you'd assume

1146
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 3: would be favorites, but uh, Juicy line say, hey, they

1147
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 3: are the one seed in the West. They deserve it,

1148
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,080
Speaker 3: five and a half point favorites at home. Trey believes

1149
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 3: they will cover winning by six or more skeets, and

1150
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,479
Speaker 3: I have the Clippers who lose by five or less

1151
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:52,440
Speaker 3: or obviously su stight up.

1152
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 2: So you said this is a TNT game tonight, I'm nine.

1153
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 2: They're back. Yeah, yeah, there's there no Thursday night football.

1154
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 3: Well, this is the last week of the season. It

1155
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 3: must be. It must not because they're doing the flex.

1156
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 3: They're doing the flex in the NFL, So.

1157
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 2: Thursday night basketball we don't need to get Yeah, it's

1212
00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:19,400
Speaker 4: what this movie is. It's like a horror movie obviously,

1213
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 4: and there's a woman it might be Texas Chainsaw mass.

1214
00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,440
Speaker 4: I've never seen it, but I just love Paddington in

1215

1218
00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:41,680

1219
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:45,880
Speaker 4: seeing Paddington playing Jeffretty Kill. He's killing it and he's

1220
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,320
Speaker 4: got over a million dollars.

1221
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:48,240

1226
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 2: know Paddington in Things or you know Paddington Stars or something.

1227
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1228
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 4: I mean I love the out that he has, which

1229
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:13,880
Speaker 4: is like, I'm going to do this until I forget.

1230
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 4: And he's on day six, six, seven, six and sixty

1231
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:19,640
Speaker 4: seven days straight. It's amazing.

1232
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:21,640
Speaker 2: Okay, here's a question. Do you think he banks them?

1233
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 5: Oh?

1234
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 2: He must, because I think he's photoshopping every day.

1235
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,400
Speaker 4: Well, I think he probably picks a day like the

1236
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:30,400
