Speaker 4: Ellis in Dallas this weekend? Why was he wearing beads?

41
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 4: What was going on lately? A little quick trip down

42
00:01:59,320 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 4: to uh Dallas.

43
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I had a good friend, Big Bears from Sunbury

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 2: was over. His wife is from Austin, Texas. They're on

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 2: a little North American jaunt for the Christmas holidays break

46
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: and she's originally from Austin, Texas, so they were in Dallas,

47
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 2: so I decided to zip out there for a game.

48
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 2: There was a one pm local time tip off for

49
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 2: The Man's Pelicans on Saturday. Saturday, Perfect, Perfect, So.

50
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: You flew Friday night.

51
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: Flew Friday night. I had a few pops in a

52
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: local pizza tavern. I'll tell you what this pizza tavern.

53
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 5: I'm tad.

54
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: It was like walking into a Tarantino movie because we

55
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: were about an hour south of Dallas, and we would

56
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 2: both angry. So he said, let's just go in here.

57
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: We walk in there and almost like the chimes on

58
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: the door, you know, rung when we walked in there,

59
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 2: everyone just stopped and looked around. Clearly not a couple

60
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 2: of locals just walked in there. There's a few cowboy

61
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 2: hats in there, and we sort of said table for

62
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: two please, looking around and sat down, had a couple

63
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: of beers. But I mean, it could it could have

64
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 2: just erupted in there any moment. It felt like it

65
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: felt like we were just in the scenes. So that's great.

66
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 4: The game not that entertaining. That was the That was

67
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 4: the Mavericks one thirty to eighty four, Big.

68
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: Down, Yes, and it wasn't that close. I think the

69
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 2: first quarter there was only three or four points, and

70
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 2: even a halftime was only ten points. But the third

71
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: quarter New Orleans couldn't score. Boba was fantastic, Actually a

72
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 2: good Bob Boba was great. The crowd obviously shouting for

73
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: boban and to shoot threes when they're up forty, but

74
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 2: he wouldn't do that. He played his role well. He

75
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: got the postgame interview too on court, which was great,

76
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: but yeah, not a very good game. Caught up with

77
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: actually Pelicans GM Dave Griffin before the game. Despite the season,

78
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: very positive. You know, obviously things haven't gone that their

79
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: way this season, but he remains positive and confident that

80
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: exactly exactly. He knows that it's going to be a

81
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 2: tough season from here on out.

82
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 4: So how did you get those beads? Who'd you show

83
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 4: those nepts too?

84
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: Well, no real great story about these. Everyone in the

85
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: arena got beats. Yes, you Warriors proud of course.

86
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: Of course you think about getting one of those graffiti jerseys.

87
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure they had them in the team store.

88
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 2: They did, and I will say they actually look great

89
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: in person. I will say I will say, they look fantastic.

90
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 3: So maybe you were on the Christaps porzingis pay roll

91
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 3: this whole time, from the next to the maps, just

92
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: like that surprise.

93
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: Well, the thing is those beads. I was going to

94
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: bring them into the office to show them off to everybody.

95
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 2: But as I was on my way home from the arena,

96
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: some ladies were on a bachelorette party and they need

97
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 2: to secure as many beads as possible, and one who

98
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 2: was very boozy came up to me and asked me

99
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: for my beads. And yeah, you know, I'll be the hero.

100
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 4: We'll get great stories.

101
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: I will say quick shout out to a couple of

102
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: maps who I saw there, Ol Whitley, Jess skin Wade

103
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 2: and Ben Hunt. Not Ben Hunt you think of an

104
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: Australian Bent Hunt. Also, they took great care of us there.

105
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: We had great seats for the game.

106
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 4: Awesome. Well it's mine to here. We got winners and

107
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 4: losers of the NBA weekend. Let's start with the winners

108
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 4: as we always do tasks. Who you got for your

109
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 4: big winner from the weekend?

110
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: The Calves? Kevin Love because the Calves came out on

111
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: Friday or Saturday. Adrian Rosenowski reported that, hey, the Calves

112
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: are willing to deal Kevin Love. They're letting everyone known,

113
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 1: the twenty nine other teams, hey, hey, hey, hey, we

114
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: want this guy out here. They put it on Craigslist,

115
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 1: they put it on next door, They even put it

116
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: in your local slack. Everyone. Everyone is aware. And it's

117
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: an important date because it's about ten days before. Yeah,

118
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: forty percent of the league can be traded on December fourteenth.

119
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: One hundred and sixty hundred and seventy players can't be

120
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: traded the next day, boom they can be. So they're

121
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 1: getting the notice out there very very early before anyone

122
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: else does. I'm sure you know every other team is

123
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: working behind the scenes to deal the stars, to deal

124
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: their big name players and big money players that are

125
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: on the books. But the fact that the Calves are

126
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: doing right now to me tells me that they will

127
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: do anything to make this happen. He is not on

128
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: their timeline with their young players. It is time to

129
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: move on from Kevin Love in the three years and

130
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: about ninety million that he has left on the books after.

131
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 4: This after this season.

132
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, yeah, one hundred and sixty hundred seventy players

133
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: come available forty percent of the league on December fifteenth,

134
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: So that's that's the spy on the calendar we're all

135
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: waiting for because some deals should be happening.

136
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 2: He's thirty one Kevin Love yep. Obviously this season, the

137
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 2: Cavs haven't been playing all that well. His numbers are okay,

138
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: but they're not great. I wonder what the market is

139
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,359
Speaker 2: for him. I think he still can provide value to

140
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: the right team in the right situation. But yeah, I

141
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: also think that contract is heavy.

142
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: Would that's why That's why you just got to basically

143
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: take anything. Yeah, like if you haven't expired, somebody has

144
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: an expiring deal, whether it's a three way deal. Like

145
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: the Craigslist ad probably isn't pretty. I mean they're trying

146
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: to they're trying to flower it up gently used, well staged,

147
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: very very well staged.

148
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 5: A nice talk on his jersey.

149
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 3: It's good to be first, though, you know, you want

150
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 3: to play your ad up on Craigslist first, so you

151
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 3: get the best deals out there, set.

152
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 5: The market for things.

153
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 3: But uh, yeah, Kevin Love can't be happy in Cleveland.

154
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 3: You know, he was talking a good game before the season.

155
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 3: I want to be here as long as possible. Yeah,

156
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 3: I don't think he's saying that anymore.

157
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, this toalk, the Cavs want, you know, young players

158
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: and picks and stuff. I mean, I don't think you're

159
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 2: getting all that. You might you might get a deep

160
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: first round pick potentially depending again on who really wants him,

161
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 2: if there's competition for him, but otherwise like.

162
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: Young player, yeah, singular plus a dirty pick. Yeah you said,

163
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: like a deep first round pick. Yeah.

164
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 4: Right, you're hoping of the three things and expiring contract,

165
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 4: which you I mean, you're gonna need a big contract

166
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,280
Speaker 4: coming back anyway to match him. Then, like you said,

167
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 4: a young player or two and then yeah, a pick

168
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 4: or two. Will they get all three or is it

169
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 4: just gonna be obo there at the bottom of that Craigslist?

170
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 4: And then also I think Tristan Thompson is a possibility

171
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 4: to be moved as well, alongside Kevin Love. I mean,

172
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 4: there's no reason those guys, those Vets really are on

173
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 4: this squad with the way they're shaped up for their

174
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 4: foreseeable future here. So yeah, I mean, I haven't watched

175
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 4: a ton of Cass games. I'm gonna be completely honest.

176
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 4: I've seen the Love highlights. I've seen a few games

177
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 4: here or there. He's averaged sixteen, eleven and three, basically

178
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 4: not that far off his career type of numbers. He's

179
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 4: thirty one, though, like you said, Lee, can he still contribute?

180
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 4: Are you still convinced at this age, at this point

181
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 4: of his career, can he contribute to a playoff sort

182
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 4: of caliber team. And that's why we will see you

183
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 4: some other GM calling the Calves today or the next

184
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 4: couple of days.

185
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 3: He'll probably be better on a better team. He's been

186
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 3: playing the third man role for five seasons now. It's

187
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: been five years since he averaged twenty or more points

188
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 3: per game. He's fallen into an outside shooter role. You know,

189
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 3: he'll be able to still pass the ball. He can

190
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 3: get some rebounds, So definitely he fits in on a

191
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 3: team like the Blazers, who's been connected to since forever. Basically,

192
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 3: I mean, they could easily do Hassan Whiteside and Anthony

193
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 3: Simons and a pick for Kevin Love if that's something

194
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 3: they want to do. I mean, the Blazers haven't been

195
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 3: great this season. They've been a little better since Mellow,

196
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: but it was a tough weekend for them. I don't

197
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 3: know if they want to try and change something up

198
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 3: yet again considering the Rodney Hood injury.

199
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 5: But I don't know.

200
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 3: I do think Kevin Love will be energized playing somewhere

201
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 3: else besides Cleveland as long as he's healthy.

202
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: Do you have a team, Do.

203
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 4: You have a team outside of the Blazers maybe that

204
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 4: you look at and go, huh, that would work Kevin Love.

205
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 4: They should, They should try and make a deal here.

206
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 4: They have the pieces to make a deal and.

207
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: Would come to mind, the Kings could work too.

208
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 4: Who are you thinking?

209
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. It depends who who the Cows really

210
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: value because those contracts aren't short with the Kings, so

211
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: you'd have to take back some money. But there's you know,

212
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: I think the Tristan Thompson scenarios is even more appealing.

213
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: He has been turning heads and it's an expiring deal

214
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, right, he's been playing really, really well. And

215
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: then they have a bunch of guys like Matthew Delvadova

216
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 1: could be a guy off a bench to help somebody.

217
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: He's expiring. They got a bunch of expiring so there

218
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: they'll be wheeling dealing.

219
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. The only thing with the Portland situation is because

220
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 2: he's got those further years guaranteed on his contract. That

221
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: means next year, potentially they have Litlid at thirty million,

222
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: McCallum at the thirty million, and then Love at thirty million.

223
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 2: So if you if you do decide to trade him,

224
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: then you're probably looking to trade you make make a

225
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 2: trade again further down the line, which could make things

226
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 2: a little harder. But of course then he has less

227
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 2: years on his contract, and if he performs well, perhaps

228
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 2: I mean that's sort of looking you know, long term here,

229
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 2: but that and now I guess with the addition of

230
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: Mellow it changes things a little bit for the Blazers.

231
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure, but uh yeah, I don't think he's

232
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: going to go to Portland anymore.

233
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 4: Okay, what about this one? Let me throw it out, Yeah,

234
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 4: because I think I talked about it a long time ago,

235
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 4: maybe even sort of in the preseason when we were

236
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 4: doing our previews. Would the Sons do something for Kevin Love?

237
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 4: Because they could?

238
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: That's the heart one right now.

239
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, Tyler Johnson's expiring deal really makes this doable because

240
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 4: you've got base It's a nineteen twenty million dollar deal

241
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 4: right there, expiring, and then you could you know a

242
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 4: Kaminski Asarich. You know, maybe you convince the Sons to

243
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 4: give up on a bridge something like that in that

244
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 4: four five million dollar range and then a draft pick

245
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: or two? Is that enough? Is that in? You know,

246
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 4: I think the Suns would very quickly do that. You know,

247
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 4: they're they're in a playoff race. They've played well. He

248
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 4: seems to be a sort of a type of guy

249
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 4: that you could fit between beside a like a beansy

250
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 4: and stuff like that. So I think it works on there.

251
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 4: And it's whether the Cavs think that's enough an expiring deal,

252
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 4: maybe one of their they're younger, or maybe like a

253
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 4: bridge like I said, and then a pick.

254
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think I think it'd be worth it.

255
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 2: A few of the calves that take take bridges for sure.

256
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 2: And again you mentioned there with Baines and Love, I

257
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: think they wouldn't clog each other up too much because

258
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 2: they can both spread the floor technically, so you know,

259
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 2: I mean bains he doesn't get too bog down there.

260
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 2: And I think another big body would help them as

261
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 2: well rebounding or what about DeAndre and he's oh yeah,

262
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 2: is that okay? Yeah?

263
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: They got a beat him for first three years? Are

264
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: you going to play he pairs well Love?

265
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would think what about the Ja the Jazz

266
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 4: is another rumor? Maybe getting in the mix for a Love.

267
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 4: You can't trade ingles, that's the one thing, so maybe

268
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 4: that that makes it a little more complicated. But the

269
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 4: young guy would be maybe an exum. So the Cats

270
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 4: have a bunch of young guards as it is, and

271
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 4: then maybe it would have to be like a Bugdanovich

272
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 4: or and then in a Davis and then first round

273
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 4: pick and stuff like that. I mean, just because the

274
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 4: Jets have struggled so far this season that maybe their

275
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 4: name that's the reason why their name is being thrown

276
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 4: around for Kevin Love trade rumor.

277
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 3: It doesn't seem super realistic to me to trade Bugdanovic

278
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 3: right away. He's been probably their best player so far

279
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 3: this season.

280
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 4: Hey, I'm just throwing it out there. It's like trade rumors.

281
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 5: Who wants Kevin? Who would love to have him?

282
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 4: I'll be shocked though if he isn't moved, Yeah, because

283
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 4: he just doesn't make any sense on the Cav's roster.

284
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: But they shouldn't have that extension when they did anyway,

285
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: I mean, because Lebron was gone and they still signed

286
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: to have four years one hundred and twenty Like that

287
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 2: was a weird contract for them to extend him to.

288
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but now they're going to get an asset right

289
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: for him, right, doesn't it doesn't work out like they're

290
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 1: you know, you still have to pay people.

291
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. It just feels like, well, I will

292
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 2: see what that asset is anyway, and then that might

293
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 2: determine whether or not it was worth investing that much.

294
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 4: I'd like to give a winner of the weekend to

295
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis. Pretty good weekend. The guy had two will

296
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 4: boys Friday Will Boy and Sunday's Will Boy versus Portland.

297
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 4: He had thirty nine points twelve to twenty one, shooting

298
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 4: thirteen to fifteen at the line. Got even better on Sunday,

299
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 4: fifty points for AD, twenty at twenty nine from the floor,

300
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 4: ten to ten at the line, and the Lakers continuing

301
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 4: to roll fourth consecutive when they're there league best twenty

302
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 4: one and three. Lebron and Ad looked unstoppable on Sunday.

303
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 4: They've looked unstoppable from good chunk.

304
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: Of this year.

305
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 4: Actually, you know, we talked about a long time ago.

306
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 4: AD despite the Lakers winning all those games, and he

307
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,719
Speaker 4: was not killing it for a couple of weeks there. Defensively,

308
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,559
Speaker 4: he was awesome, and it was a big reason why

309
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 4: the Lakers were winning a lot of games because he

310
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,239
Speaker 4: was the backbone of that really solid defense. But offensively

311
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 4: he wasn't lighting up the box score. But here he

312
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 4: comes now, and you can see the chemistry of course

313
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 4: building between him and Lebron. Lebron had eight of his

314
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 4: assists on Sunday, a couple of the Lobb variety, a

315
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 4: lot of obviously pick and roll action or Lebron on

316
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 4: the side with him. He looked he looked like, you know,

317
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 4: a top player in the game, a top five maybe

318
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 4: even higher. On Sunday specifically, he had it go and

319
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 4: he was every basket.

320
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 2: This is the quickest Lebron has gelled with another superstar.

321
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 1: You know.

322
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: It took about twenty or so games there in Miami

323
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 2: with Big Three, and about the same when he went

324
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 2: back to Cleveland that first time with Kevin love Van

325
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving. But right now it looks like these two

326
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 2: guys have been teammates forever. Yeah, Ad seems to have

327
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 2: adapted pretty well without feeling like he has to be

328
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 2: the man, you know, and Lebron's also sort of been like,

329
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 2: you know, I'll babysit you here for a while, but

330
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 2: I want you to stand on your own two feet.

331
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 4: What I seem to like about them, even with their

332
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 4: other vets, like ad after this game talking about you know,

333
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 4: Bradley and Rondo and Cousins even saying, go for fifty, man,

334
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 4: go for fifty. I do like. And I wonder if

335
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 4: Edie is the type of guy that needs these other

336
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 4: guys around him to always say, hey, man, you're the

337
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 4: best person on the floor, especially if it's a guy

338
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 4: like Lebron, even saying it like just that remainder of like,

339
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 4: come on, man, like you should be killing it on

340
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 4: both ends, and he just needs that push every once

341
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 4: in a while, and whether that's a big part of

342
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 4: his success early on.

343
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 5: And he's got people making it easy for him.

344
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 3: I think it goes under the radar that Anthony Davis

345
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: is scoring more per game than Lebron is He would

346
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 3: be in the MVP conversation if not for last year.

347
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 3: You know, people are going to give him props for

348
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: being a top five guy this season. He's gonna win

349
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 3: Defensive Player of the Year. But because of the way

350
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 3: things ended in New Orleans, he's not going to be

351
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: a realistic MVP candidate, but he obviously should. He has

352
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 3: changed the Lakers. They're the number two defense right now

353
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 3: in the NBA, and it's because Davis really just settles

354
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: things down on that side. Let's Lebron play free safety

355
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 3: like Lebron has. He says he's playing more defense this year,

356
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 3: and he's definitely more active, but it's because he doesn't

357
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 3: have to guard anybody. He just stands in the middle

358
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 3: and uses his brain and his athleticism to pick off

359
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 3: passes and help at the rim and grab rebounds and

360
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 3: then suddenly you're the other way and the Lakers are

361
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: looking great.

362
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 5: Davis has been awesome and.

363
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 1: I don't know.

364
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 3: The Lakers are just learning how to play with him,

365
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 3: and it apparently is just throw it near the rim,

366
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 3: he'll go get it or give it to him.

367
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 5: On the post.

368
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 3: He gives you a jab step inside spins the other

369
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 3: way it's a layup or a jumper.

370
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: It's unique to watch them because they play in the

371
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: post and the air. Second in post ups in the league.

372
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: They did just go to this guy underneath, and they

373
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: are the new lop city sort of. They're leading the

374
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: league in alley oops, so it's pretty unique on those

375
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: two fronts to see a Lebron team like that. You know,

376
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: you think outside in but they're just going to a d.

377
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: They are making Ad feel comfortable. As he said Skeets,

378
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: every time Anthony Davis has a postgame interview, Lebron is

379
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: waiting for him to run into the tunnel. It's a

380
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: thing that happens with the Lakers. It's interesting that he

381
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 1: is trying to big them up and trying to be

382
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: buddy buddies with him. I think Lee, you mentioned the

383
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: big three not working as you know, as quickly or

384
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: more quickly than it did in Cleveland. In Miami, they

385
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: are still looking for a third guy. They are still

386
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: looking at Yeah, he doesn't he played it comes off

387
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: the bench. He does his thing, He definitely does. Alex

388
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: Russo's good at his role, Dwight Howard is good at

389
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: his role, Danny Green good at his role. But Kyle

390
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: Kuzma has tried to be that number three guy and

391
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: it has not worked whatsoever. He was supposed to be

392
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: that number three guy, and uh, he's savaging eleven per

393
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: and not you know, not shooting great. They're they're looking

394
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: for a third dude, and right now it's it's looking

395
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: like they're the best team in the league. But do

396
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: they need a third guy? Maybe not if they're this guy.

397
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean right now they don't because they're getting

398
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 2: so many contributions from so many different guys. Sometimes it's

399
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 2: Dwight and so I'm not I'm not at his KCP. Yeah,

400
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 2: you know, he's been good for them. So on any

401
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 2: given night, you're probably gonna have one or two of

402
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 2: those guys step up, but not all of them. So

403
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 2: you know, while the Lakers are just rolling right now,

404
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 2: everything's working.

405
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, the Lakers should take Anthony Davis, remove him

406
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,439
Speaker 4: from the starting lineup, just bubble wrap him, put him

407
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 4: in a bin, and put him away until April or

408
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 4: or May too. That's my only concern is like this

409
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 4: guy who get picks up these very strange injuries, just

410
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 4: does it again here at some point in the regular season,

411
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 4: Like I would just take them out. Hey man, you've

412
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 4: been great, We'll see you come April. May well.

413
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 3: Even last night, like he just got hit in the face,

414
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 3: he's like grabbing his eye the whole time, and the

415
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 3: announcers like, well, I hope it's nothing in his eye area,

416
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 3: but you look at it, he's only grabbing his eye.

417
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 3: But apparently it worked out fine for him. Just doctored

418
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 3: up that unibrow and went back to work. He's been great.

419
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 3: The only way he doesn't win DPO wise if he

420
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 3: gets hurt.

421
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,120
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think at this point, I think you're right,

422
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 4: all right, So Ad, he's a winner. Who do you got?

423
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 3: Trey Winner of the weekend Ben Simmons. He was good

424
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 3: on Sunday against the Raptors in a win, almost the

425
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 3: triple double sixteen points, eleven rebounds, nine assists. But the

426
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 3: real story was Saturday, set a career high and scoring

427
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: thirty four points on twelve or fourteen shooting, including his

428
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: second three pointer of his career. Oh, from the left corner.

429
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 3: Hit the three wide open. Nobody wanted to step out

430
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 3: on him. Understandable, drained it, no problem. Crowds going crazy.

431
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 3: The sixers get a steal, he's back the other way

432
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 3: for an alley oop slam dunk.

433
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 5: That's back to back jacks.

434
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 3: I know it wasn't two threes. Oh interesting, but the

435
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 3: crowd was still buzzing from the three pointer. So I'm

436
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 3: willing to say two highlights that close together that as

437
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 3: back to back jacks. But on Saturday he just looked

438
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 3: like what you would expect the best version of Ben's

439
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 3: im to look like. He was playing downhill, he was

440
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 3: getting steals defensively. He had so much confidence because he

441
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 3: hit the three, But at that point that was give

442
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 3: him twenty one points. He already had eighteen. He had

443
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 3: already hit another jumper like he hit a jumper out.

444
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 5: Of the post.

445
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 3: He hit like a fade away kind of leaner a

446
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 3: little bit later in the game. This is just exactly

447
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 3: what you would want to see from Ben Simmons when

448
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 3: you think what is the best way he could possibly play.

449
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 3: It did come in a game when Joel Embiid was

450
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 3: not playing. That's a little a little interesting considering people

451
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 3: are always talking about.

452
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: The fit with those two and against a pretty ordinary

453
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 2: appartent as well.

454
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 5: So he had he gotta beat him.

455
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: No, I know you do, I know you do. They

456
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 2: certainly had op I mean at a half time seventy

457
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: seven to thirty sixers.

458
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's been some. There was some insane beat deads

459
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 4: over the weekend.

460
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: Yes, and it was when they were up thirty points,

461
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: So is that play a part. He's they're up thirty

462
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, okay, I'll let a rip.

463
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: Well, if he's not going to shoot him, then then

464
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 2: you know, when is he going to.

465
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 5: Get They're up thirty because of Ben Simmons. Yeah no,

466
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 5: he was killing yeah.

467
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, But does he shoot the three ball because they're

468
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 1: up that many points.

469
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 3: I think that's why many points because if he was

470
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 3: shooting three is interesting.

471
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

472
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 1: No, he's shooting threes because they're comfortable. Because he's like,

473
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: it's not a close game.

474
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 4: Well, then after the game, wasn't Brett Brown, like you know,

475
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 4: on the record saying yeah, we want him to shoot

476
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: at least won a game.

477
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, And then he didn't shot the Raptors.

478
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 4: But they played great. I mean, the Raptors played a

479
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 4: pretty brutal game, I thought for a good i don't know,

480
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 4: forty two minutes and then decided to play some basketball

481
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 4: for the final five or six and made it a game.

482
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 4: But the Sixers, you know, handled them fairly easy through

483
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 4: the first three quarters. Part of that was the Raps,

484
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 4: I thought, but big win. I mean, look, the Sixers

485
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 4: are in the fourth seed in the East. You know

486
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: that they would have bumped up to the third seed

487
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 4: if the Heat hadn't pulled out their overtime victory against

488
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 4: the Bulls. So they got to go in here. They

489
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 4: got the Nuggets coming up. Then they go to Boston

490
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 4: to play the Celtics, home again to play the Pelicans,

491
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 4: then on the road again to play the Nets. Heat Mavericks.

492
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 4: Like it's those are like five interesting games right there?

493
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: Twelve Yeah, still they are very tough to bait.

494
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 4: Still undefeated at home. All right, who you got lee

495
00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 4: for a winner?

496
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 2: Well, you'll remember the stat is bump when someone came

497
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 2: on our show and then all of a sudden they

498
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: have a sort of career night or a couple of

499
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: games afterwards. Yep, I think we gave Sarah Coustoke, Sarah

500
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 2: Sarah Coustock and the Brooklyn Nets the no dunks bump.

501
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 2: I'm getting there.

502
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 5: You need to know dunks bump?

503
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh my god. Great.

504
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 2: Well, since she came on our show, they're three and

505
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 2: oh now they beat the Hawks and the Hornets. But

506
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 2: then on Sunday they beat the Denver Naggens and pretty

507
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 2: good game. Spencer Dinwidie was fantastic again in that game

508
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 2: and It's interesting because after Sunday's loss, Nikola Jokic said

509
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 2: it was too easy for them second half. It was

510
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 2: too easy. We got to do something. I don't know

511
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 2: what it is, but we probably need to do something.

512
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 2: I have an idea. Don't be so bad defensively. Spencer

513
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 2: didnwitty just basically if he sagged off, they took a

514
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 2: shot or they just went in straight at Jokich. The

515
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,159
Speaker 2: guess we're going to talk to them about them a

516
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 2: little bit later in the show. But they've got some

517
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 2: issues right now, and one of them is the fact

518
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 2: that they scored so easily because they weren't defending Spencer

519
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:11,440
Speaker 2: and the Brooklyn then now, it was a close game

520
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 2: that it's only lost by three points, but they gave

521
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 2: up a lot, a lot, a lot of easy baskets

522
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: in that game. So Brooklyn, good weekend for them, great weekend,

523
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 2: great three games. Since Sarah was on the show.

524
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 4: I mean, how's Dave de forb been doing since I'm

525
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 4: just like, I don't know.

526
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 2: He must be having a great time.

527
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,199
Speaker 4: So the no dunks bump is real, all right? So

528
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 4: then that's that is a good one. A couple more

529
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 4: mini winners here, guys, from the NBA weekend. Let's give

530
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 4: it to Fizzdale. He's a winner. He's out of there

531
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 4: in New York. I guess the winner to us as well.

532
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 4: We were calling it on Friday Show. Mere hours later

533
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 4: he officially gets fired. But yeah, the inevitable became reality

534
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 4: on Friday and the Knicks fire David Fistel aft that

535
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 4: four and eighteen start. We all know the real I mean, look,

536
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 4: he was fired basically when they lost twenty one points

537
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 4: to the Caves back on November eleventh, and then they

538
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 4: had the impromptu press conference. He was just hanging on

539
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 4: by a thread and things didn't get much better. And

540
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 4: now he's gone. But he's a winner. He's out of

541
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 4: there now. Now it's a Now it's Mike Miller. No,

542
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 4: not that Mike Miller as the interim head coach. I

543
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 4: got excited when I saw.

544
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 2: It was Miller.

545
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,880
Speaker 4: I was like, wow, Mike Miller's on the knixt bench.

546
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 4: How did I not know that? It's not It's not

547
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 4: that Mike Miller. It's another Mike Miller. But he'll get

548
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 4: a crack at it, and then, no doubt, you know,

549
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 4: hopefully we get a I don't know who, do you

550
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 4: want Mark Jackson, you want to Jason Kidd, you wanna,

551
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 4: Jeff Van Gundy, you wanna?

552
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 3: I mean, what will the next Chris Child's I don't know.

553
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 3: It feels like you gotta It's got to be somebody

554
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 3: who has Arlie. Yeah, nixt time, bring back Patrick Ewing.

555
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 3: Why not get him out of Georgetown, give him a chance?

556
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh my goodness, so Fizz is out of there.

557
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 4: Winter of the weekend to the Milwaukee box. I mean

558
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 4: they've won fourteenth straight. No one cares. They hammered the Clippers,

559
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 4: hammered them. I guess that one was on Friday night. Yep,

560
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 4: you're honest, looking like a beast singing them Happy Birthday.

561
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 4: Things are coming up Milwaukee, even though we're not talking

562
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 4: about him a ton, but fourteen straight is something impressive.

563
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 4: Tyler hero winner to him?

564
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah.

565
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,719
Speaker 4: Sunday scored twenty seven points, including sixteen of Miami's final eighteen,

566
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 4: as the heat held off the Bulls one ten, one

567
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 4: oh five in overtime to stay perfect at home. He

568
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 4: hit a three with second seconds seven seconds remaining in regulation,

569
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 4: then he hit three in overtime. All big, big shots,

570
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 4: a lot of them coming off Jimmy Butler like penetration

571
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 4: and then kickouts to him kids a baller.

572
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and he's shooting wide open jumpers. Yeah they were,

573
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 5: I mean Jim Boyling, not that Jim Boyle.

574
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 4: Doubling off him.

575
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's just.

576
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 3: That's that's the Bulls strategy, man, You double team the

577
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 3: guy with the ball and then just let somebody else

578
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 3: shoot it.

579
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 4: It was wild, but you know, the heat another win

580
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 4: and they haven't lost two in a row. They're still

581
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 4: perfect at home, and as I said, they're still third

582
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 4: in the Eastern Conference. And again these you know it's

583
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 4: you had none at the start of the year. You've

584
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 4: had Duncan Robinson playing well and his starts as a rookie,

585
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 4: and then and Tyler Harrow has been very, very good.

586
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 4: And this was sort of like one of those like

587
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 4: oh wow, sort of eyeballs on him.

588
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 2: He's a young guy, he's confidently shot. He likes to

589
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 2: talk a little trash too. Oh yeah, he.

590
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 4: Shot his pure though.

591
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

592
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 4: None of these were like rattlers or a little lucky

593
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 4: bounce there, just like he was, like Trey said, wide

594
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 4: open on a lot of these. Uh, And we know

595
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 4: that's the one thing this kid can do. Is to

596
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 4: shoot the ball at nineteen years old. But splash, splash, splash,

597
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 4: and people were going nuts. And yeah, heat, I mean

598
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 4: that looked it was against the bulls. But no druggage,

599
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 4: no Winslow, they're missing no waiters, of course, not that

600
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 4: he's been playing at all, but still nice win there

601
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 4: for the heat. We'll get to losers in a second,

602
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,080

Speaker 5: I'm in JD You're in time.

625
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 4: What are you thinking? Where you want to go?

626
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: Hey man?

627
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 6: We could go literally go anywhere.

628
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 4: It's door Dash. You're not wrong. Losers of the weekend,

629
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 4: who you got?

630
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: Well, let me start us off with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

631
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 1: Let's go back a little bit earlier in the week.

632
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 1: They lose Monday to a Jam Morant list Grizzlies. On

633
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 1: Wednesday they're up double digits on the Dallas Mavericks. They lose,

634
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: and then Friday, oh baby, it was a great one.

635
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 1: Three seconds left. Their player Jordan Bell is at the line.

636
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: They're up too. He can ic it. He misses both,

637
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: but second one the Wolves somehow corral it's to jump

638
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: all Carl Anthony Towns ends up going to the line.

639
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: He's got two free throws. He can ic it. He

640
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: misses the first one. Everybody's planning, all right, all right,

641
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 1: all right, we're up to here. The Thunder don't have

642
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: a time out. You know what, I can just miss it.

643
00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: It's there's one second left on the clock and will win.

644
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: But Jordan Bell comes in to grab that rebound. But

645
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 1: as he comes in, his jersey is untucked. So the

646
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 1: Thunder's Chris Paul you can hear him on the broadcast,

647
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: tells referee Scott Foster. Hey, hey, hey, his jersey's untucked.

648
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: That's a delay of game. Scott Foster obliges. That's a whistle.

649
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 1: Thunder go to the line for a technical free throw

650
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: to Nielognari. He hits it. Now it's a one point game. Still,

651
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: it's one second left, Thunder, don't have a time out.

652
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Town's just clank this baby and it should

653
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: be over. So unfortunately, Karl Anthony Towns goes back front,

654
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: backboard and in and so.

655
00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 5: I mean trying to close his hands out in the air.

656
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: He did. They get a practice miss free throw more

657
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: just like Brent Barry and the Spurs used to do.

658
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: But it goes in, so Steven Adams steps over the

659
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: baseline and Dennis Shruter goes streaking. He goes streaking to

660
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: the other side of the floor. He's holding off Jeff Teeks.

661
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 1: Steven Adams chucks it like he's his shot putting sister,

662
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: and Dennis Shruter comes up with it easy laying to

663
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: tie the game and send it to overtime. Crazy finish.

664
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: They had so many chances to end this thing. They

665
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 1: lose then, and then they lose to the Lakers on Sunday.

666
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: It's four in a row. They're out of the playoff

667
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: picture right now. It's just it's just something about those Wolves.

668
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: I believed in them to make the playoffs, and then

669
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: they come out and just lose these these things that

670
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be losing, over and over and over again.

671
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 2: Chris Paul notoriously gets into it with rifts all the time,

672
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 2: but then hey, I need you on my side.

673
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: Well, on Sunday, apparently he said that the refs tried

674
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 1: to get him back. Yeah they did get good yeah,

675
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: by giving his team delay of game calls.

676
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 3: To a slay loser of the weekend, to Chris Paul

677
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 3: and to the referees because What a bunch of losers

678
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 3: for this?

679
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 5: Are you kidding me?

680
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 3: The guy's a tattletale. I'm trying to teach my five

681
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 3: year old not to tell on her sister all the time.

682
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 3: This guy is literally telling on Jordan Bell for not

683
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: having his jersey tucked in, but even bigger loser Scott

684
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 3: Foster for call technically yeah, what an idiot? And then

685
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 3: the idiots again on Sunday, Chris Paul again is telling

686
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 3: on his friend Mellow for you know, clapping his hands

687
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 3: on a miscall.

688
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 5: They gave him another tech.

689
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 3: They give Chris Paul to delay a game warnings so

690
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 3: that he can get a technical because he had hit

691
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 3: both his shooting shirt and his pants on when he came.

692
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 5: To the check in table. This is stupid.

693
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 3: This is honestly embarrassing that this is a story for

694
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: two straight days. What a bunch of losers.

695
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: How can you call him loser when he won the game?

696
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 3: He didn't win the game, Karl Anthony Towns lost them

697
00:29:58,760 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 3: that game.

698
00:29:59,160 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 5: If either one of.

699
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 3: His free throw results is a flip flop, that game

700
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 3: is a win for Minnesota. I mean, congratulations to Chris

701
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: Paul for knowing the rules and congratulations to him for

702
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 3: getting the rest to call it, but come on.

703
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 2: Hey, let's just say though that passed from Steven Adams

704
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: and then the catch up finished from Shrewder like that

705
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: all had to connect perfectly and it did. That was

706
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 2: that was an incredible thing.

707
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: I mean there was also Jeff t just being a

708
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: wimp about it.

709
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,719
Speaker 4: He was he didn't want to foul him or think

710
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 4: you're one hundred percent right. He was. He was weak

711
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 4: on that play and he had a great game.

712
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: He actually had a monster game.

713
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, though, it is when you when

714
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 2: you I didn't see it happen, and then Saturday I

715
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 2: was looking back and I was just like, what, what

716
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 2: the hell? You know? So because you don't believe that

717
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 2: a ref would actually be like that and call a

718
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 2: tech for someone coming in without their shit tucked in,

719
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 2: because that happens a lot. You see you guys sort

720
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:45,959
Speaker 2: of coming in.

721
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 4: Well, then do what Test does? Always talk your jersey

722
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 4: always haven't talk lesson Lauren Jordan Bell.

723
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: What's weird is that he just came out of the

724
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: game like he hit the free throws all. I'm sorry

725
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 1: he missed the two free throws three seconds left. He

726
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: goes out and untucked he thought he was done, I guess,

727
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: and then came back in with a second and left.

728
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a I mean, it's it's so on brand

729
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 4: for Chris Paul. So yeah, that part, you can't knock him.

730
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 4: I mean, that guy has been like that his entire career,

731
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 4: just like a stickler and a tattle tale and like, hey,

732
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 4: we gotta do it. You're you're missing this all that,

733
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 4: but uh, it is crazy. I'm with you that the

734
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 4: Foster doesn't just go, hey, tuck your Tucker jersey like

735
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 4: that's I mean.

736
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 3: Ky pitts, was Paul know your personnel? The only referee

737
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 3: who would call that delay a game is probably Scott Foster.

738
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 4: Well that's the ironic part though, with Chris Paul and

739
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 4: Scott Foster have gotten into it multiple multiple times before.

740
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 4: But you're right, Scott Foster. Yeah, you're right knowing that

741
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 4: a guy like Foster would call that when I'm sure

742
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 4: I don't know ninety percent of the other referees probably

743
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 4: don't in that situation.

744
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 3: Then we got a ref taking it out on him.

745
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 3: In the next game, a different guy, Brian Forte, what's

746
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 3: your Forte?

747
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 4: Showed up to Joe Forte.

748
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:56,479
Speaker 5: Remember I do Joe Forte. He's a winner of the Weekend.

749
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 5: I was gonna mention for no reason.

750
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 4: I love it. Okay, Yeah, that was a but wolf

751
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 4: coming out as a loser. Yes, especially when you add

752
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 4: on them getting punked by the Lakers there on Sunday.

753
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 2: Who got I alluded to it in the winners it's

754
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 2: the Denver Nuggets. Two losses for them in Boston and

755
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 2: Brooklyn on Sunday, and you know, look, that's a tough

756
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 2: couple of games there. Fine, but I'm really starting to

757
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: be a little concerned about the Nuggets coming into this season.

758
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 2: I had them peaked to be finished top of the West.

759
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,479
Speaker 2: I loved the continuity they had coming back. I love

760
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 2: the way they played last season, and the one question

761
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 2: I had is wonder how they handle the expectation this

762
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 2: year a little bit differently. Things started off okay, but

763
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 2: they're certainly not playing inspiring basketball right now. They're not

764
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: a convincing team. They're nowhere near a serious challenger in

765
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 2: the Western Conference. And they've got no built in excuses,

766
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 2: no significant injuries, no overturning changing of personnel, no coaching

767
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 2: change or anything like that. Those are usually things that

768
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 2: you give that sort of fifteen to twenty game adjustment period.

769
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 2: Two Denver, I think are just no longer teams. Teams

770
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:57,959
Speaker 2: are giving them their best every night because I think

771
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 2: they know they can be a pretty good team, and

772
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 2: they're not handling it all that well. It's look, They're

773
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 2: they're going to make the playoffs. I'm sure about that.

774
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 2: The fourteen to seven. It's not a disaster right now,

775
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 2: but I'm still waiting and waiting, waiting for the depict

776
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 2: that pick it up and to show that this team

777
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 2: is going to naturally improve from where they will last.

778
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 4: What's so weird about the Nuggets alway is that their

779
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 4: defense is great. It's second in the league.

780
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 2: Well statistically it is.

781
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 4: I mean, I know you talked about that nets ending

782
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 4: for sure, like didn't what he was just walking to

783
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 4: the rim. I get that, but and that's the role

784
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 4: they are. There is a solid defensive unit. They are

785
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 4: struggling on the other side, which is it.

786
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 2: I just think that the eye test doesn't support that

787
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 2: defensive stat right now because I don't think they I

788
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,640
Speaker 2: don't think teams struggle to score against them. They get

789
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: a lot of clean looks.

790
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 1: And they're struggling. They're getting lucky on wide open threes.

791
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: The other teams are right.

792
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: So those those shots are there. But you know, what's

793
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: his name, Jamal Murray. You know, I really wanted him

794
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 2: to take the start. I thought he was, you know,

795
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 2: almost not a luck for the old style game, but

796
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 2: certainly he was going to be in content. I don't

797
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 2: think he's close to that right now.

798
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 4: No, he's he's continuing to struggle to shoot the ball. Yeah,

799
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 4: he's forty four percent from the floor, thirty four percent

800
00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 4: from three. He's averaging eighteen points per game. You know,

801
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 4: he's you know, he throws in sort of a five

802
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 4: and five and a steal and a half. It's not bad.

803
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 4: You Yeah, you were thinking, no doubt it's going to

804
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 4: go to the next level.

805
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 2: They gave him that much contract.

806
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, he he's twenty two. Yeah, this it's still Jokic.

807
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 4: It's your it's his team, and it's not inspiring. So

808
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 4: to me, it falls on him. He's your leader. And

809
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 4: even like you saw like the if you want to play,

810
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 4: you know, his body language when he goes to the

811
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 4: bench in that Nets game, you seem like he's just

812
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 4: there's no there's no fight in him, that's for sure.

813
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 4: There's no passion. It looks like and that's your that's

814
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 4: your guy, that's your MVP candidate.

815
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

816
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 2: I mean they lost four of it last five, you know, so.

817
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 4: Well, that's the thing. Now, that record I saw, I

818
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 4: think it was Matt Moore was tweeting about it that no,

819
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 4: its record is suddenly sort of coming back to earth

820
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 4: because they were winning those games that they probably shouldn't

821
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 4: have been winning early in the season, so the record

822
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 4: looked like, wow, they're damn nearly had like three or

823
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 4: four losses. Like that's good, they're great, but they weren't

824
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 4: playing that well. And now that it's starting to like, yeah,

825
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 4: they're falling down the standings a little bit. What are

826
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 4: they fourteen and seven now here on Monday. Yeah, now

827
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 4: you're starting to hear people talking about them a little

828
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 4: bit more.

829
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, definitely. And they just play like a

830
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 5: yokic team.

831
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 3: Your best player gives your team the personality, and if

832
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 3: your best players not totally engaged, perhaps your team won't be.

833
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 3: Maybe they just thought they would be exactly where they

834
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 3: were at the end of last season. You know, they

835
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 3: made a nice run. They had some good matchups. The

836
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 3: team looked promising, but we've seen in the past a

837
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 3: team can have success one season, come in next year,

838
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 3: think they'll pick up right where they left off and

839
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 3: they're just back into playoff mode again. And that clearly

840
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 3: hasn't been the case.

841
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 5: I don't know.

842
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jokic just needs to be better. There's no other

843
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 3: way around it. He just needs to be better and

844
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 3: try harder.

845
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 4: And the bench that was amazing last year has struggled too.

846
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 4: Like you're Monte Morris's Beasley's and your Tory Craigs and

847
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 4: stuff like.

848
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 5: Those guys basically career years for everything.

849
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and they definitely not lived out to expectations

850
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 4: for sure. Fourteen to seven though. Yeah, yeah, Look, it's disappointing. Yeah,

851
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 4: disappointing start. I think a loser of the weekend is

852
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,720
Speaker 4: fair for sure. All Right, who's next.

853
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 3: Here's some good things about the Cleveland Cavaliers. They have

854
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 3: these mash up uniforms that look like every jersey they've

855
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 3: ever worn combined into one. They got like Klee on

856
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 3: the front, they got a bunch of stripes on the side.

857
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 3: They've got like the the nineties line in the middle,

858
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 3: jersey numbers They look pretty good with their blue court.

859
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 3: I like that Tristan Thompson gets to post up. I

860
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 3: don't know why they're doing it, but it's fun to

861
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 3: see a guy working down there in the post, very slow.

862
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 3: That guy looks like a nineties post player. But the

863
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 3: Cads are losers on the weekend because they're terrible. They

864
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,760
Speaker 3: lost to the Magic on Friday, scored eighty seven points.

865
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 3: Then they lost to the Sixers on Saturday, where they

866
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 3: trailed by forty at halftime. They gave up almost as

867
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,719
Speaker 3: many points to the Sixers in the first half on

868
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 3: Saturday as they scored for an entire game on Friday.

869
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: This all comes on the heels of an athletic report

870
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 3: that John Bline is too much of a college coach

871
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,720
Speaker 3: and the players don't like that. He would say polar

872
00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,120
Speaker 3: bear for when they're supposed to curl around the screen.

873
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 3: So he responds, He's like, listen, guys, ninety percent of

874
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:19,359
Speaker 3: my vocabulary is NBA vocabulary. They're fighting about words right now,

875
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 3: and that, to me is why Tass is exactly right.

876
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 3: It's time to move on from Kevin Love, because I

877
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 3: think he's the guy who's doing most of this complaining

878
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 3: there's five guys left over from the team last year.

879
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:33,280
Speaker 3: Tristan Thompson, Kevin Love, Larry Nance, Jordan Clarkson, and Anti Zizzich.

880
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 3: This is the same guys that were complaining about Colin

881
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 3: Sexton quote not being able to play last year. Tristan

882
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 3: Thompson has come out and supported John Bee. Lion said

883
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 3: he's gonna fight whoever was talking about the Caves to

884
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:49,240
Speaker 3: the media. Larry Nance has supported him. So it's either Zizzich,

885
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 3: Clarkson or Love. I'm putting my money on Kevin Love.

886
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 3: He wants to be gone from Cleveland. He should be

887
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,720
Speaker 3: gone from Cleveland. There's no reason for him to be around.

888
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 3: Six straight losses for the Caves. That comes after one

889
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,279
Speaker 3: win and six straight losses prior to that.

890
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 5: They're bad.

891
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 2: John Beeline disputed the report. He plays on heavy. Yeah,

892
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 2: they're fun, they're fun. Don't worry vet them.

893
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: No, they're not.

894
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 2: Nah, they're fine, they're good. Everyone's great. Yeah, weird situation

895
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 2: in Cleveland.

896
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: You would think that the locker room would pipe down

897
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 1: a little bit after the lebron era, Like you know

898
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: that that Rich Paul is probably not leaking things, but

899
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: maybe Tristan Thompson's leaking things to Rich Paul again. I

900
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 1: mean they're just yeah, so many leaks for a terrible team.

901
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,319
Speaker 1: Who cares you.

902
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 3: Think Tristan Thompson is leaking something and then going to

903
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,919
Speaker 3: to the reporters and then saying, yeah, I'm gonna find

904
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 3: I'm gonna find whoever it is. I actually like the

905
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: sound of that, trying to throw the scent off himself.

906
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: Two face Tristan the double tea pot idea. Yeah, can

907
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: Love doesn't seem like a leaker to me, But yeah,

908
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: the leakers. You never know who the leakers are.

909
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 4: And look, they have like two squads right now in Cleveland.

910
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 4: They do have these sort of vet guys, and then

911
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,919
Speaker 4: they have all these super super young guys. And yeah,

912
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 4: I'm sure there's now with all the losses piling up,

913
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 4: that there's some budding of heads. And then look, Baylin

914
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 4: wouldn't be the first college coach to come in here

915
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 4: into the NBA and people go, dude, this doesn't work

916
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 4: in the NBA pro level. Like your your attitude or

917
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 4: how you're going about it.

918
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 5: Curl like, I.

919
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 4: Mean right, I wouldn't be wrong. We've seen this happen before.

920
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 4: Sometimes it works you know, Brett Stevens obviously a great

921
00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 4: example of a college coach comes in had some success

922
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,879
Speaker 4: right away, but many times a coach has come in

923
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 4: and it just doesn't work at the pro level. And

924
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 4: you and we all understood, I think where the Calves

925
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 4: were going with the higher in the first slights because

926
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 4: they're like, well, we basically are going to have a

927
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 4: college team with these young guys, and maybe that guy

928
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 4: can set sort of an identity for this, you know,

929
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 4: post Lebron sort of franchise. But yeah, it's it's not

930
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 4: working for whatever reason. Who knows and who are those

931
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 4: people that are complaining the to the to the media,

932
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 4: is that the young guys is the Vets. I'm not sure.

933
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 3: They say it's everybody that's not just the Vets, And

934
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 3: I mean they started four and five, so you know,

935
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 3: and maybe they talk themselves into hey, we're actually a

936
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,360
Speaker 3: decent team. They were playing a little bit of defense earlier.

937
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 3: But Jason Woyde also reported for The Athletic that Beeline's

938
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 3: gonna have a chance to see this out. He signed

939
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 3: to a huge deal. He's five year contracts, so they're

940
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 3: probably not gonna be cutting bait this soon.

941
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 2: Maybe it's him leaking. He's like, I just want to

942
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 2: get piped. They hyped you'd a.

943
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 1: It's also on the floor. It's just it's gross to watch,

944
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: like Colin Sexon as they're leading shotgetter by far, you

945
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: would think maybe Kevin Love, the guy who's uh being

946
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: paid at bajillion dollars, would shoot a little bit more.

947
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: Something's going on there.

948
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 4: I'm gonna give a loser of the weekend, unfortunately to

949
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 4: the Blazer's Rodney Hood tearing his achilles tendon in Friday's

950
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 4: loss in the first quarter. I mean, I'm sure you

951
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,160
Speaker 4: guys saw it. It was one of those like, oh,

952
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 4: sniper got him from the back, Like nobody stepped on

953
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 4: you tweak anything by rolling something. It was just that

954
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 4: achilles pop and uh, he's done for the season. And

955
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,760
Speaker 4: Blazer's injuries just continue to bury them, you know, no Nurkic,

956
00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 4: of course, he's still recovering from a broken left leg,

957
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 4: Collins recovering from the right shoulder surgery. Hood was playing

958
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 4: well for them at a position they need. And you know,

959
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 4: Jason Quick of the Athletic writing today, I saw or

960
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 4: this weekend, It'll be interesting to see what Neil ol'sha.

961
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 4: Does the Blazers GM Do they try and make a

962
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 4: move here, bring in sort of immediate reinforcements, or do

963
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 4: the Blazers, you know, front office, say sort of, hey,

964
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 4: enough's enough. You've got a very high payroll as it

965
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 4: is second most expensive roster in the league, and you

966
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 4: just got to play with this sort of cruel hand

967
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 4: you've been dealt here. Fascinating to see what he does

968
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 4: because you know Baysmore's starting of course now and then

969
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 4: does this mean more minutes unfortunately for like a Hazonia.

970
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 4: Do they go younger with little getting more? Gary Trent

971
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,799
Speaker 4: Junior is still injured, but when he's healthy, will he play?

972
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 4: What do they do?

973
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 1: Go get Kevin, Go get Kevin, Go get keV. You

974
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: could trade Whiteside if the Cavs are really really willing

975
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 1: to deal him, you could. It's literally hassan Whiteside and

976
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,640
Speaker 1: a pick would make it work. Yeah, it's not nice,

977
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: it's not sexy, but they're gonna deal Kevin.

978
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 4: I think they could. They could really get into the

979
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,360
Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon sweepstakes too, if that's a real rumor that

980
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 4: the Magic would be looking to move him. And I'm

981
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 4: on record as saying, as I think he is going

982
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,279
Speaker 4: to be traded, I don't think it would take much.

983
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 4: I think it eventually you have to take you giving

984
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 4: up on probably Simon's right, it's yeah, I mean I

985
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 4: think that's enough to entice the Magic. They're likely not

986
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,400
Speaker 4: gonna want another big so I think there's something there

987
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 4: that could be done too. But there are rumors like

988
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 4: could they get into the Igonolo swepstakes get a guy

989
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 4: to play, you know, obviously the wing position, and what

990
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 4: would that take? Yeah? Yeah, so, and then of course

991
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 4: there's still the old do they just blow it up

992
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 4: and having it and get more enticing, a more enticing

993
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,879
Speaker 4: player back if you move on from CJ. McColl let's

994
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 4: say you and you break up that backcourt sort of

995
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 4: like the Raptors did. But fascinating to see what the

996
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 4: Blazers do here. But that's unfortunate. Like I said, a

997
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 4: good guy, people like him, and was playing well for

998
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 4: the matter, obviously a position they needed.

999
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 2: I certainly like Aaron Gordon Moore as a prospect for

1000
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 2: them given his contract, certainly not as burdensome as Kevin loves.

1001
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 2: And maybe it's that fresh start. It's an athletic Wing.

1002
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 2: It's someone who they could probably use. You know, you're

1003
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 2: going to get reasonable production out of Kevin Love, but

1004
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 2: he's going to decline yah himself over these years. Whereas

1005
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 2: Aaron Gordon, there is hope that he could he could

1006
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 2: become that star player that he's shown flashes of. So

1007
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 2: I think that would Yeah. I think that is something

1008
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,439
Speaker 2: that Blazers might look into, especially if Orlando is ready

1009
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 2: to move on from him, which it appears that they are.

1010
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it would take bees more let's say the

1011
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 4: expiring deal and then an enticing young player, Yeah, to

1012
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 4: try and get like an Aaron Gordon, and I think

1013
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 4: that deal could be done. It's just whether those teams

1014
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 4: want to. Of course. Final loser of the NBA Weekend

1015
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 4: to Eric Reid, the heat play by play announcer. Sorry, Eric,

1016
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 4: I got to do it last night in Miami League.

1017
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,319
Speaker 4: That's right, Bulls rookie Kobe White. He stuck wedgie number

1018
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 4: nine on the season. That's great, but that's not what

1019
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 4: Eric read the heat play by play announcer called it.

1020
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 4: I had JD pull the clip. Here's Eric Cooky White

1021
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:16,480
Speaker 4: with the doink, Kobe White with the doink.

1022
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:18,840
Speaker 1: It almost sounds like a boink.

1023
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 4: Yeah. I listened to it a couple of times. I'm

1024
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 4: pretty sure he says, doink, I have one more time

1025
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 4: JD with the doink. Yeah, that's come on, come on,

1026
00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,760
Speaker 4: we're not asking for much here, all right, give us dorrink,

1027
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,320
Speaker 4: Give us Weggie. Every other broadcast says it. Just say weggie.

1028
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:36,839
Speaker 4: You know it's a weggie. And I think he even

1029
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 4: has in the past, if I'm not mistaken. I don't

1030
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,319
Speaker 4: know where doink came from. It's nothing doinking about it.

1031
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 4: A doint to me says the ball is coming off

1032
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 4: the rim. That's a doink. And we all know a

1033
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 4: classic donker is a ball to the face.

1034
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Maybe maybe he's trying to combine too, he's trying

1035
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 1: to give us two shoutouts because we call it donkers

1036
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,720
Speaker 1: in the Weekend website. Yeah. Maybe maybe he's just desperate

1037
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: for some more starters action.

1038
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's a wedgie, man, it was a good

1039
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 4: one at that. You know, that's we thought. We thought

1040
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,919
Speaker 4: Wegg's be flying through the roof because more more teams

1041
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,479
Speaker 4: are shooting three pointers and I don't know, the odds

1042
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 4: seem to just go up more. You got maybe more

1043
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,320
Speaker 4: velocity on the ball there from the three, and Kobe

1044
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 4: stuck it perfectly, stuck it perfectly.

1045
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 2: But the Twinkos back with a big Okay, alright, have fighting,

1046
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 2: all right, because I think you're right confused.

1047
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 4: It happens, man, Okay, Okay, alright, Let's get to tweet of.

1048

Speaker 1: The night, Tweet out the night, Wow tw NBA dot

1049

1050
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: games without a three pointer in the last twelve years.

1051
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,359
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis has three of those four, as he did

1052
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday against the Timberwolves. Who's the other one? Who

00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 1: Like?

Speaker 1: I'm already did do it a long time ago, but

1064
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: not in the last twelve years. He did it in

1065
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,240
Speaker 1: five twelve years.

1066
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 5: Twelve years?

1067
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 3: Makes you think it happened exactly twelve years ago and seven?

1068
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 4: Is that wrong?

1069
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna shocked it way back. Corey Brewer, no to

1070
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 1: Corey musta.

1071
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 4: Hit a three, Terrence Ross was hitting.

1072
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: It's a guy who doesn't shoot threes. It would make.

1073
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 4: Sense it doesn't shoot threes.

1074
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 1: I mean he's shot a few.

1075
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 4: Has he can? You can you give us this? This this

1076
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 4: a guy that like has exploded for like forties before,

1077
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 4: Like yeah, yeah.

1078
00:46:55,680 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tomarto Rosen No, no, Jimmy, he's a big man.

1079
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:01,719

Speaker 4: TV Friday Night Results Lakers Blazers. Lakers were favored by

1144
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 4: four and a half. Tray Lee Task had the Lake

1145
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 4: Show rolling and they did. I got the X on

1146
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 4: that one. I had the Blazers. I tried to swerve again,

1147
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 4: but I took the loss. I'm two and three Task,

1148
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,319
Speaker 4: two and three, Tray three and two Lee four and

1149
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 4: one in the month of December. What's our game tonight?

1150
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,000
Speaker 1: Well, I picked this one because it's our hometown for

1151
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,720
Speaker 1: four or the five of us Toronto in Chicago, involving

1152
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: both of our hometowns. But the thing is, I think

1153
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna get a four way sweep on the Wraps,

1154
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: but I had to go with this one. Maybe try

1155
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 1: was taking the bulls. We shall see raps. Three straight losses,

1156
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 1: very on Raptors like Chicago Bulls. Two straight losses, very bulls, like,

1157
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: so what do we got? It's in Chicago, Well.

1158
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,320
Speaker 4: What's the what's the update on Fred van Vliet because

1159
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 4: he obvious we left that game against the six Ers

1160
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 4: pretty early with the I guess it was a knee

1161
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 4: sort of bone bruise he had. He had injured it

1162
00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 4: prior to that game and then sort of gave it

1163
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 4: a go and it wasn't doing well. So maybe they

1164
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 4: keep him out. He's important to that team. It is

1165
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 4: damn important to that team.

1166
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 1: But maybe maybe Kyle Lowry feels comfortable without him in

1167
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 1: the lineup. Yeah, yeah, I got wraps.

1168
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,280
Speaker 4: Boy, hell did take the Bulls?

1169
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,360
Speaker 1: Yes, five and a half. They get five and a

1170
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:25,400
Speaker 1: half points, both on a.

1171
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 5: Back to back too, so three and four nights for

1172
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 5: the balls.

Speaker 3: They haven't beaten opponent yet. Who is over five hundred.

1174
00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:34,600
Speaker 3: I'm going with the rap.

1177
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,080

00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 1: All right?

1179
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:45,719

Speaker 3: Fourth quarterly this weekend, everybody taken the Raptors.

1181
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 4: Raptors gonna win by six points, so you know it's

1182
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 4: something crazy could happen at the end of the game,

1183
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 4: or who knows, Raps could use a fourth roll for

1184
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 4: all we know. I got It's just sort of a

1185

Speaker 1: And how are those hats staying.

1192
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,279

Speaker 4: that's me. Maybe it's I don't know. You look pretty proper.
