Speaker 2: was just getting buckets about a week ago in New

00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 2: One singing and start the show. He's singing from the

22
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: Lloyds Sue. You know what's going there? Hey, listen, you

23
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: already know I ain't think he was ready. He ready,

24
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,919
Speaker 2: He had his loves, his little cup of Joe today.

25
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 2: He ready to go. He had his team with his

26
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: limit and his honey and the sugar. He is still

27
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 2: in himself.

28
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: This out.

29
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 2: All right, man, Let's get it going. Let's start out

30
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: over there in the East. Man, you got the Nick

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 2: Jerseys behind you right now. So in the East, let's

32
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: start with you, young mall. Who's for real and who's

33
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: a fraud out there? Who the real competitive teams is

34
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 2: trying to make it to that finals? And who who

35
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: really ain't all?

36
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 3: Let I love the moves the NIXT made, and part

37
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 3: of it is because Julius ran was a talent. He's

38
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: an unbelievable player, and it's not a slight towards him,

39
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 3: but the spacing they needed in Brunson's arrival. I think,

40
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 3: you know, Julius is such a strong personality, and you

41
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 3: know he's a go getter, and Jalen will naturally take

42
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 3: the back seat. You want Jalen to naturally be aggressive,

43
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 3: and I think with Kat he can do that more peacefully,

44
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 3: more free, getting cat there, getting the space and they

45
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,959
Speaker 3: have I washed him up close last week, like you said,

46
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: and the space they're gonna have the pick and roll,

47
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a pick or poison type thing. You

48
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 3: just gonna need the other guys to make shots, especially

49
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 3: when it matters most.

50
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 4: But the knicks are definitely for real.

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 2: So you feel in the big bow day and big

52
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: body Brunts is down there that one two huh Yeah.

53
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 4: I love that matchup.

54
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: I love that he already played that Cat already played

55
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 3: for Tims, so he knows exactly what to expect. Tims

56
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: already coached him, and Cat's a different player now. He's

57
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: more mature, he's a little older, a little more seasoned,

58
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 3: and I think him and Brunson are gonna fit so

59
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 3: well together.

60
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: They're gonna create stuff for everybody else the Miles Black,

61
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: who else you see out there. I mean, obviously we know,

62
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: we know before we any further. Boston is the big

63
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 2: dog who's sitting there looking and everybody's trying to measure

64
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 2: up to them. So don't think that we forgot We know,

65
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: we believe it's in the Celtics. But I just want

66
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: to hear about some of these other teams that's trying

67
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 2: to get to where they already at. So who else

68
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: you see under that?

69
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:14,960
Speaker 1: Black?

70
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 5: I see Philly, I see Phillyn made a big move.

71
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 5: Hope Paul George come back. He kind of hyperstentding his knee.

72
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 5: But I like that combination of Paul George, Maxi and

73
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 5: Joel and b I think if they stay healthy, I

74
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 5: feel like they're definitely gonna have a shot at the title.

75
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 5: And I'm looking for the Bucks to bounce back if

76
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 5: they stay healthy too, because at the end of the

77
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 5: year they lost a lot of guys.

78
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: They stay healthy too.

79
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 5: I think Damian Lillary getting a year under his belt,

80
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 5: he kind of know who his coach is. They done

81
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 5: brought Rondo, they done brought Darvin Ham over there.

82
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be a good team.

83
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 5: I like a couple of the young guys that they

84
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 5: added to the team. So I'll say Philly and I

85
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 5: say the bucks Man, and I think they're gonna be

86
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 5: some contenders in the East.

87
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm with you. I'm with you on all three

88
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: of them teams. Who you say is the player to

89
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: watch in the East in your opinion, Black, I feel

90
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: like it's two players.

91
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 5: I feel like Damon Lillard just how hard he work

92
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 5: and how determined he is. I feel like he feels

93
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 5: that he didn't have a year that he wanted to

94
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 5: have last year.

95
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: So I think he's coming back with a vengeance.

96
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 5: And Jason Tatum, I think he just got a little

97
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 5: season on him from the Olympics. And not saying that

98
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 5: just because he didn't win the finals, MVP of none

99
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 5: of them awards.

100
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: But you know that all this is just motivation, you.

101
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 5: Know, and it's good to have motivation when you just

102
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 5: want a championship to come back the next year to

103
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 5: try to do it again.

104
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: Who you're looking at in the East? Did you looking

105
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: at it? Coming to take his name and put it

106
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 2: out there, Mam.

107
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: Not necessarily take his name, but almost take his name back.

108
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 3: I think Jimmy Butler.

109
00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: I think, okay, the off the court chatter that's happened

110
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 2: with the Miami City and que you know better than

111
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 2: anybody that culture is set. And so just seeing how

112
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 2: Jimmy's kind of it's being back and forth and it

113
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: just ain't felt all the way locked in with each

114
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 2: other the last year, I think this is a big

115
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 2: year for him.

116
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 3: I think it's a contract here. He can get a

117
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: contract extension something like that. I think he's one to

118
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 3: watch and the heater always a dark horse. But to

119
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: your guys' point about the Bucks, I'm more shocked that

120
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 3: it didn't work the way. I know it's coaching change,

121
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: but on paper, I thought Dame and Gianna's game fit entirely.

122
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 4: And I haven't talked to Dame.

123
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it just seemed like I like

124
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 3: Dame more in Portland personally better because it seemed like

125
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 3: he was his spirit was.

126
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: He was always an attack mode. They weren't one of

127
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 2: the most, but he was playing with that.

128
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: I want to see him be able to be Dame

129
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 3: Willard because his game is still where it was. Then

130
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 3: he just has to be that guy and they have

131
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 3: to figure out how to work with each other. For them,

132
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 3: they have the best chance the title.

133
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel I feel you on that toe. I

134
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 2: feel like, for whatever reason, whatever, you know, it's a

135
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 2: lot of things that he said, It's been said for

136
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 2: whatever reason, he wasn't the real Dame Lilid that we

137
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: used to seeing. And I'm like, I'm with you. I

138
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 2: hope he's gotten I mean, he looked like he back

139
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: to it though these couples he looked like he was

140
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 2: back into his conference zone. So I'm excited to see

141
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 2: what he do and how he get back to that.

142
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 2: My player that I'm looking forward to this year making

143
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 2: a big lead is your little brother, Maul young Paolo

144
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 2: down here in Orlando. Man, I feel like we all

145
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: know how that year three. You know, you got a

146
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: couple of solid years, and he's taking big steps. Every year.

147
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: The team is taking steps. They making it to the playoffs,

148
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 2: they competing, they doing things, and I think, man, you know,

149
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 2: they got KCP coming over to bring some some veteran leadership,

150
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: some championship type experience, and I think they ready to

151
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 2: take another step. And I mean, obviously they don't take

152
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: that next step if Polo don't go up to the

153
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 2: next level. I'm looking at him to be, you know,

154
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 2: an All Star again, an All NBA type of former,

155
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 2: and just to take his whole game to the next level.

156
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,119
Speaker 2: And I think we'll get a couple more national games,

157
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: and I think you're gonna see a lot more Polo

158
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 2: ban Carrol this year, and he's gonna make his name

159
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 2: a little bit more prominent than this whole league type situation,

160
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 2: I think.

161
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 3: And I saw his work this summer, Like I was

162
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 3: in the gym with him, and I saw how he's preparing.

163
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 3: He was preparing Q and D like he was preparing

164
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: to win the MVP, Like he was locked in the

165
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 3: whole time. Two three different workouts today, getting his body

166
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 3: as strong as possible, getting the best possible shape. And

167
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 3: I saw even in pickup, I saw how he was

168
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: utilizing everybody. I'm like, Okay, good players, make themselves good, Grace,

169
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 3: make everybody good. And you can see that that light

170
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 3: bulb went off for he was like, I'm gonna make

171
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 3: everybody better. I'm just gonna try to play perfection basketball.

172
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 3: It doesn't mean I'm gonna come down and shoot five

173
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 3: straight times. If that's what it calls for, if it

174
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: calls for me to get five straight assists, I want

175
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 3: to do whatever it takes. And him going through the

176
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: Olympics experience, going through the playoffs, I think that next

177
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 3: step will be to be writing that MVP conversation and

178
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:47,119
Speaker 3: leading the magic.

179
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with both of y'all.

180
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 5: I think he took a sip of the juice and

181
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 5: he even felt that playoff atmosphere and say.

182
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 4: What juicy take.

183
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 5: But I'm just talking you know, the playoff experience and

184
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 5: the playoff atmosphere. I see he got that, and you

185
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 5: know it just motivated him to work hard for something,

186
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 5: to come back and be a little bit better.

187
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: We pretty much talked about you know, we didn't touch

188
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: on the Calves and the Pacers, but we expect those

189
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 2: teams to be you know, back running and gun and

190
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: I'm excited to see both of those teams get to

191
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 2: their full strength. But when you talk about the Celtics

192
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 2: defending and what they bring to the table, what do

193
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 2: y'all think this summer has done for them? I mean,

194
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 2: everybody has talked about it and how you know how

195
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 2: sometimes teams have championship hangovers and blah blah blah. But

196
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,319
Speaker 2: obviously the writing on the wall with Jalen Brown not

197
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 2: being selected, they he could feel to be taking that

198
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: as a slight to the Olympic team and Jason getting

199
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: there and not being able to play for whatever the

200
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: reason was, Like do you think that was crazy? Let's

201
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: call it the one that was crazy, all right, Listen,

202
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 2: was absolutely crazy. We've addressed that. That's why I like,

203
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 2: I agree with you, that was absurd. Any team is

204
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 2: about to be playing the man been his resumes speak

205
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: for itself leading to this thing.

206
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 1: It's not like it's old news.

207
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: He was all team fall first NBA four years coming

208
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: into it, so he should have been playing regardless. And

209
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: I mean, we don't know to what or why or whatever,

210
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 2: but we do know it was crazy. But do y'all

211
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 2: look at that like they put them in a situation

212
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 2: where it can't be no hangover. They coming in this

213
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 2: thing pissed off and ready ready to serve notice, even

214
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: though they coming off a chip.

215
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just feel like it's you never really see

216
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 5: a team that wins a championship and go through a

217
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 5: summer where they got stuff that they can use as

218
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 5: motivation to go into the next summer.

219
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

220
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 5: They usually get celebrated the whole summer and everything go

221
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 5: perfectly right. They take the trophy, y'all, back to their hometowns, everything.

222
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 5: They really don't have a dull moment during the summer

223
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 5: after they win a championship. But for them, guys, they're

224
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 5: to just get a little bit more motivation from something

225
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 5: that they just pulled from, whether whether it's it's good

226
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 5: or not. For them to get to be able to

227
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 5: pull from something to motivate them to come in the

228
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 5: next year to try to two peak.

229
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: You know, it's scary.

230
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: I think Missoula should be the happiest person because, to

231
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: your guys's point, he has so much to draw from.

232
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 4: He has that, he has a slighter brown, he has

233
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 4: the Tatum experience.

234
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 3: Oh and by the way, he also has their ear

235
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,839
Speaker 3: now because now I've shown you that I can help

236
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: win a championship, I can lead us to a championship.

237
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 3: And talking to him, I was there for the finals

238
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 3: game with a clinch and talking to them after the game.

239
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 3: He was so impressive and just how he found himself.

240
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 3: He had to find himself to be able to lead

241
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 3: this group, and he had to really be honest with himself.

242
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 3: I believe he went over to Jerusalem and he just

243
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 3: sat there after that last playoff loss and he found himself.

244
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 3: He was there for hours and he came back a

245
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 3: new person with a new spirit. And so I think

246
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 3: he's the happiest because not only does he have that

247
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 3: stuff to pull from, he's also proved he could lead

248
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 3: them to a championship and they believe everything he says.

249
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was hard on him, but he wore on me.

250
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 5: I guess I was hard on him because I'm such

251
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 5: a big Tatum fan, But he's improven to me that

252
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 5: he's a good coach and he's a players coach, you know,

253
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 5: he know how to play the Jedi mind tricks with.

254
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: The players and all that.

255
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 5: Suff Yeah, so he he didne won my vote. He's

256
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 5: definitely a good coach me too. That's how I go

257
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 5: off everything.

258
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 2: I look and try and get a feel for how

259
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: the players respond to him and how what type of

260
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 2: respect they got for him. And you hear those guys

261
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: often in they interview speak highly of him and talk

262
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,599
Speaker 2: about the relationship they got with him. So he you know,

263
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 2: he didn't done his job, and obviously outside of winning

264
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 2: the championship, he's gained their trust, like you say, and

265
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 2: got their belief in him.

266
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: So that's what's up.

267
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 2: Let's get out here to the Western Conference, man and

268
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 2: the same like we asked in the East and the West,

269
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: who real and who fake? Who the real competitors? Who

270
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 2: contenders out there?

271
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 3: Mam Denver's obviously a real contender, you know they man

272
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 3: Joker is so good Washington close.

273
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 4: I was like in amazement. He's literally like four or.

274
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: Five of the best players that ever play combined in

275
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 3: one like he can go to being magic or being bird,

276
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 3: or he can go to being a keen with the

277
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: footwork or being shocked with the Bruce strength, like he

278
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: can do so much.

279
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 4: He was just a joy to watch.

280
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: So I think with Denver getting Russ out there, I

281
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 3: think Russ is energized, and I think they're going to

282
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 3: embrace Russ for being Russ.

283
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 4: And I think he needed a coach like Coach Malone.

284
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 3: I played for him in New York and he needed

285
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 3: that tough nose, hard nose coach that believes in you.

286
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 3: So I think Denver. But I think the team that's

287
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 3: really going to shock people this year's Phoenix. I've been

288
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 3: on Phoenix for a year now or year plus. They

289
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 3: got a point guard now. And when you have a

290
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 3: point guard, you allow kd and booking those guys Brad

291
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,199
Speaker 3: to do what they do best.

292
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: You don't want them thinking the game and having to score.

293
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 2: Let them do what they do best. Let's somebod else

294
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 2: think for you, especially in the fourth quarter where you're

295
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 2: not as tired. You know, your moves are more crisp

296
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 2: because you're not worre down.

297
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 3: Let this guy think for you, Entias Jones is the

298
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: perfect perfect point guard for that team.

299
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 4: Selfish, he's over himself.

300
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: So my biggest thing for Phoenix, bro, I'm a big

301
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,719
Speaker 2: believe it's just health. I felt like they haven't had

302
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,079
Speaker 2: a full run at it with Brad KD and d

303
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 2: Book all healthy. Like for a long stretch, it seemed

304
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: like either one or more than one of them are

305
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 2: always missing somehow. I want to see you know, them

306
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: at full power and get a real run at it.

307
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say for me is Dallas.

308
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 5: It looks like I don't want to mess his name up,

309
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 5: but they got another seven foot center down there, and

310
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 5: he looked he looked real good during.

311
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: The preseason for seven zy sweet Patrol. Yeah. So I'm

312
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: excited for Dallas.

313
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 5: I'm excited for Clay to kind of revamp itself and

314
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 5: kind of help that team build off of a Finals appearance.

315
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,719
Speaker 1: And the next team, I'm.

316
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 5: Just really really excited to see as the Memphis Grizzlies,

317
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 5: you know, John Morant back, I feel like Jared Jackson

318
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 5: will get an oportunity to really play power forward. A

319
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 5: drafted big eaton which I feel like was a great

320
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 5: pick for them. He looked good in the preseason. I'm

321
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 5: just expecting Memphis to come and make some noise because

322
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people forgot about them.

323
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to that too. I don't know if

324
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 2: they so much has forgot about them or it's more

325
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: just like it's one of them things when you injured

326
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 2: and you're not playing well because of the injuries and

327
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 2: you don't make the playoffs, nobody's just thinking about it.

328
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: They thinking about them teams that just was there, that

329
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: just was doing it. But I definitely agree with you.

330
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 2: They got I think they got something to say at

331
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 2: full strength, and I think, you know, as long as

332
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: they can stay healthy, they're gonna be right back to

333
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: being that problem they've been for the longest time. So

334
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 2: we got You say Memphis, you say Denver, and you

335
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 2: say Dallas, and you say Phoenix. Out of those though,

336
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: I would expect either Phoenix or Dallas really because.

337
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, bro.

338
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: I feel like Denver two years in a row, they've

339
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: lost keith pieces to what helped them win those championships,

340
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: like KCP leaving Bruce Brown the year before that was

341
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 2: a big, big, big factor, I felt like, and I

342
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 2: got to see them do it again because I feel

343
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: like they need that right matchup.

344
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: I feel like that's why they lost last year.

345
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: They didn't get the right matchup at the right time

346
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, and before that they didn't matter to

347
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 2: me what matchup they had. So to me, I got

348
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 2: to see them get back to where they were, being dominant,

349
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: being healthy out there. I expect the big year from ag.

350
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 2: Joker gonna be Joker. They need Murray to be back

351
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 2: to Murray. But yeah, I got a lot of belief

352
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 2: in Phoenix and Dallas. I mean, I think Clay he can.

353
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 2: They just had him in the finals. It might have

354
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 2: been a different story just for him just to just

355
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: stand still and catch and shoot like he ain't got to.

356
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 2: I feel like he's not forced to have to run

357
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 2: around as much as he had too with the speed

358
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: and everything of the way that the Warriors play, and

359
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: he'll be more in those pit situations where he playing

360
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: off for the iso of a Kyrie or Luca where

361
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 2: he spotted and it's easier for him to catch and shoot.

362
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 2: So I'm excited to see what they're able to do

363
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 2: and the step they're gonna tell. Like you say, they

364
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 2: got the big fellow down there swap patrol, and that's

365
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 2: behind Derek Live that's coming off the bench for help.

366
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: So I like what they're doing over there.

367
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 4: Cut.

368
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 3: No, I was gonna ask you about Clay because you

369
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 3: brought up some a good point because I'm not saying

370
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 3: you know anything about his game, but just how he

371
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 3: has to change his game because you went from basically

372
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: kind of running around and being used like that different

373
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 3: in the post different ways matchups, to just kind of

374
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 3: standing more when you went to Phoenix. How different is

375
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 3: that for Clay because you know, you see his preseason numbers.

376
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 3: I'm not reading too much into it, but how different

377
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 3: is it to run around and you part actually just

378
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 3: to stand and wait?

379
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I think, especially when you a guy that's

380
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: been through the injuries and the leg injuries he's been through,

381
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: I think that'll be much easier for him because it's

382
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: not like, because you know, mal from running around playing

383
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 2: your legs can get tired. And I don't know from

384
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: the extent of like the experience of having the injuries

385
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 2: that he's gone through, but I can only imagine like

386
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: that slows you down. You can do everything that you

387
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: used to do, like coming and curling and running off

388
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: of a pick and just dotting and doing all that stuff.

389
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: Like, I feel like he'll be able to shoot forever.

390
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 4: Ma.

391
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 2: You know that when you can shoot, especially as pure

392
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 2: and as good as he can shoot, he'll be able

393
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 2: to stand there and knock down threes forever. So like

394
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 2: when you're in a position where you playing on a

395
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 2: team with two ultra dominant ball dominant guys like a

396
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 2: Luka and the Kyrie to constantly draw doubles and draw

397
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 2: different people to you, and you not flying off a

398
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 2: screen to catch that. You just standing there waiting and

399
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 2: maybe you got a guy running at you and you

400
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 2: pump fakes side step and you know, like to me,

401
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 2: those should be routine for a guy like him, and

402
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 2: that should be a much easier situation for him to

403
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 2: shoot in. So I mean, like you say, the preseason,

404
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 2: the preseason, we'll see the nuts and boats of it

405
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 2: when everything gets going and when everybody's in the real

406
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 2: flow of everything. And I don't see him not shooting

407
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 2: the ball. Well, he shot forty or whatever for his career,

408
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 2: I think he'll if he does that or better. Like

409
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 2: that was what they needed in the finals, if they

410
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: had somebody to be able to shoot forty percent and

411
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 2: really be a real threat and not be able to

412
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: like if you're scared to leave him. That gives Luca

413
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 2: and Kyrie that much more room to work with. And

414
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: I don't see Clay being somebody that, even if he's

415
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 2: a guy that if he goes over five, you're not

416
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 2: about to leave Klay Thompson for the for the moment,

417
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, at no moment. So like,

418
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: you know, he's gonna be able to at least like

419
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: a command of presence on him that somebody can't just

420
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 2: completely leave me and come help you, you know what

421
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: I'm saying. So I think he's gonna be huge for

422
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 2: him in that respect.

423
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that, which players.

424
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: Though like And it's just like we asked in the

425
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,719
Speaker 2: East who the guy out west? Is it just Joker?

426
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: Because we know Joker is the you know, he the

427
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: big dog right now, But who else? Who else we

428
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 2: see out there in the West? I mean, you got

429
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 2: King James, you got k D Book, you got Russ

430
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 2: out there with Joker.

431
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 5: I'm excited to see John come back, just his mentality,

432
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 5: the way he play, how you always try to play

433
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 5: and prove that he's the best in it. I'm excited

434
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 5: to get that back in the NBA is like I

435
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 5: missed that, you know, because a lot of players don't

436
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 5: have the same termination that he has. So I'm excited

437
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 5: to see Joe come back. And I'm excited to see

438
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 5: what SGA do again. You know, he can't he feel

439
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 5: a little bit short for the MVP. I want to

440
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 5: see if he's going to build off that and go

441
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 5: forward again.

442
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 4: I'm excited to see Wemby.

443
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 3: I want to see how he puts everything together, because now.

444
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 4: He's, you know, going into a second year.

445
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 3: He's not really surprising anybody, but now it's going to

446
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 3: be more so if he surprised himself with how he's

447
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 3: putting his whole game together. And now you got Chris

448
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 3: Paul who can kind of teach him the little nuances.

449
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 3: The moment of truth for the game can go either way. Okay,

450
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 3: we got to get three straight stops. Okay, we got

451
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 3: to get three good looks at the basket right here,

452
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 3: like those little intricacies of the game, to see how

453
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 3: he puts it together. And having a guy like Chris Paul,

454
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 3: who he knows helped develop so many dudes over the

455
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 3: years SGA being one of the latest, you know guys

456
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 3: he worked with. So I'm excited to see Winby how

457
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: he puts it all together and see if the Spurs

458
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 3: can get in that plane and make a surprise push.

459
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 2: Tell me this, though, Mal, like you, You got a

460
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 2: chance to spend some time with him in the gym

461
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 2: this summer, you and your son JJ. What was that like?

462
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,479
Speaker 2: What was he trying to pick from your brain? Did

463
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 2: you give him any of the Young Mali isms? Are

464
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 2: we gonna see him come out there doing any of

465
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 2: Mall's moves on the court? What was that experience like

466
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 2: being in the gym with him? Man, he made Young

467
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 2: Mal turn over his bag and dump everything out. There

468
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 2: was nothing left in the bag to get him. After

469
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 2: I talked to Winby before, he wanted to know everything.

470
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 2: Oh my god, he's a sponge. He's the most mature

471
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 2: twenty year old that I've ever talked to in my life.

472
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 3: Like he read fifty books last year and he didn't

473
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 3: even tell me that number. But his wisdom, like he's

474
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 3: wise beyond his years. Like how he thinks, how he

475
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 3: sees the game. Stuff it took me like years to learn.

476
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 3: He picked it up in minutes and was like I

477
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 3: got it, and he would go do it and it

478
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 3: was just unbelievable.

479
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 4: You can put him so many different places on the court.

480
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 4: It was like a blame chemist.

481
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 3: And then the conversations were even better, Like we go

482
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 3: to dinner every single night and the conversations were like incredible,

483
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 3: and I'm gonna say this, and I haven't said this,

484
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 3: so I'm gonna say this. It will go down as

485
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 3: one of the five greatest basketball experiences I've ever had

486
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 3: in my life working with him when it's all said

487
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:23,360
Speaker 3: and done, for sure, like one was like winning state championship,

488
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 3: meeting Michael Jordan, Like he's he's gonna be on that

489
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 3: list of things that have been tied to my basketball career.

490
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 2: That's do man, listen, I want to see all of

491
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 2: those guys. And I'm still I'm excited for a man.

492
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 2: I'm like, he's somebody who I just you know what

493
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 2: I'm saying. I like the way young fella who the

494
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 2: way he compete, Like it was the other day it

495
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 2: was a preseason game and that man was hyped after

496
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 2: getting like a defensive stop on Brunson, like it was

497
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: a playoff game, and it was preseason. He's Keith clapping

498
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: and yeah yeah, but you know what I'm saying, Like

499
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 2: I just he got that energy like where it was

500
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 2: just pure in genuine like when we first started playing

501
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 2: hooping in Au and learned about rankings and competing and

502
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: like you wanted.

503
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 1: To be that Like he got that. Still he still

504
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 1: got that.

505
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 2: Edge to him. I feel like when you look at

506
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 2: him play, so I'm excited to see what he gonna do.

507
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: Man.

508
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 2: I feel like he gonna have an even bigger year

509
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 2: than he had last year. And like you said, d Man,

510
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 2: he got a little simple to juicing and I feel

511
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: like he learned man, Like you know, he got tired

512
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: and I've seen him say like, yeah, I shouldn't have

513
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 2: said what I said and called Kyrie name. And I

514
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: think that's what the young Lions do. They sometimes we

515
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 2: bite off more than a week at chew and you

516
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 2: learn your lesson. But I don't think, you know what

517
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 2: I'm saying that's gonna swung him down though, I think

518
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 2: you know, maybe he don't say nothing, but he's still

519
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 2: gonna go hardest. He the hardest he was going last year,

520
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,479
Speaker 2: and I think that's what I love about him. Man,

521
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: he got that useful like some stuff I don't know,

522
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: but I'm so I'm so witted. I'm just gonna try

523
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 2: and go anyway. And you know what I'm saying, I

524
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 2: rock with that in a way. So I'm excited to

525
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 2: see what what ant man do for real.

526
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, and man, I think he got a little bit

527
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 5: of energy to the organization and just committed to him

528
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 5: by getting rid of towns. Uh. They've fenn arrive with

529
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 5: him and they want They expected him to build off

530
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 5: the year he had last year in the playoff run

531
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 5: he had, so you know that's that's for a player

532
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,239
Speaker 5: like him, that's even more motivation to come back the

533
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 5: next year and get even better.

534
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 3: His fearlessness gives his team fearlessness. They play off his confidence,

535
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 3: they play off his flow. He come in the game like, nah,

536
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 3: we ain't scared of nothing.

537
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 4: I watched it.

538
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 3: I seen it that he gives in that same confidence,

539
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 3: they're like, oh, we got the biggest dog in the yard.

540
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 4: We're good.

541
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 2: So it allows them to be the best version of

542
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 2: themselves and that's what makes ant special as well. Yeah, man,

543
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 2: talk to me about that. That that Okay, see though, bro,

544
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 2: like they was the top top seed out West and

545
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: they got better Caruso Harkenstein, Like you like when you

546
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 2: talk about teams that was already good and then go

547
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 2: get something else that was exactly what they need, like

548
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 2: they out of here of it, Like what y'all see

549
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 2: them boys doing with that hole. They got the youthful

550
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 2: movement just out of control. But then they got they

551
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 2: added some some key pieces that fit everything they about.

552
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited for Chet.

553
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 5: I've seen during the preseason they play him and the

554
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 5: other big man together and he looked even more in

555
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 5: tune with it. You know, he's not out there by himself.

556
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 5: He got some depth behind him. I'm excited for Chet.

557
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 5: I think I think that move and the key pieces

558
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 5: that they picked up will really help his game out.

559
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 5: I think he gonna have a better year than he

560
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 5: had last year, which was a great year, and I'm

561
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 5: excited for him.

562
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 3: I think SG should have won MVP last year first

563
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 3: of all, the way he performed, the way he led

564
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 3: and where they were going, where they were expected to go,

565
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 3: and what they did, what they accomplished. But I think

566
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 3: to your point, Q, they had to go through a

567
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 3: playoff series with how they were constructed to see exactly

568
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: what they needed to see. They needed a big next

569
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 3: to check to see. They needed, you know, Caruso and

570
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 3: other pieces. Now to your point, they have those exact

571
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 3: pieces they needed and now they're prime to make it

572
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 3: even better and deeper playoff run than they had this

573
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 3: last year.

574
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, tell me this does losing car Anthony Towns and

575
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 2: gaining Julius Randall does that make the Timberweels better or

576
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 2: worse in your opinion?

577
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 5: I'm like in the middle of that. I can't say

578
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 5: really better or worse. I'm in the middle of that.

579
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 5: I really think that that move, like I say, energize

580
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:37,239
Speaker 5: a man to become bigger and better player, And I

581
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,959
Speaker 5: feel like that move energized nas Reed to step up

582
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 5: and be a better player too.

583
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: So I'm still in the middle of that.

584
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 5: I don't know, because, like I think, defensively, them having

585
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 5: two big seven foots right next to each other, that

586
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 5: was like different. I feel like that was they had

587
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 5: bodies to throw at Joker, and now they don't seem

588
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 5: as big as they was last year.

589
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 3: I think it could hurt them in the regular season,

590
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 3: but I think it could give them more postseason success

591
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 3: because I think Randal's somebody. When the game slows down,

592
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: you can't get a bucket, you can't get nothing going.

593
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 3: You could throw him the ball to restore order. He

594
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 3: can get a couple of buckets to settle your team down. So,

595
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 3: I mean, Minnesota had an unbelievable year last year. They

596
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 3: made a deep, deep run, but you kind of had

597
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,239
Speaker 3: to do it because to your point, Demouse, they had

598
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 3: them two seven footers, but they weren't like a perfect

599
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 3: mix together, you know what I mean.

600
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 2: So random brings something different. Yeah, yeah, so it could

601
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 2: work out for them in the long run. Yeah, I'm

602
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 2: kind of right now. I mean, obviously we all got

603
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 2: to see it on anything because we could change our

604
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 2: pins after we see it. But I'm kind of under

605
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 2: the mindset right now that it was kind of a

606
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 2: win win to me for both teams for the nixt

607
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously Cat is fitting in perfect and he

608
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 2: feeled the need they had, especially with Mitchell Romerson being

609
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: injured and not being available. Now he can be a bigger,

610
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 2: bigger presence down there than Randall ever could have been.

611
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: And then I feel like for Julius Randall, he needed

612
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 2: this fresh start. I felt like it was gonna be

613
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 2: one of the most difficult things ever for him to

614
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 2: go back to that Knicks team and not be the

615
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 2: guy when everything about his makeup, about the way he

616
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 2: plays is the guy. I don't you know what I'm saying, Like,

617
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 2: I feel like he'll be able to fit in over

618
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 2: there with Minnesota a little bit differently because and I

619
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 2: just heard him saying that he's trying to be better

620
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 2: off the ball doing things and not being as ball

621
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 2: dominant that gives other people the ability to have the

622
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 2: ball and do things. You understand what I'm saying, Like

623
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 2: Jalen Bronson is that he's the captain over that. He

624
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 2: got the ball, he's making the plays, and I don't

625
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: know how that would have worked with him and Julius

626
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 2: Randall trying to share the ball like that. And I

627
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 2: feel like over there, Julius is in a better position.

628
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 2: He got big, he got big Rudy Gobert down there,

629
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 2: that's protecting the paint and he's like spacing it out.

630
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: So now he'll get his moments where he can and

631
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 2: they'll need him to get those moments to where he

632
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 2: can boogey that four men and get to the bucket,

633
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 2: and like you say, get that bucket they need and

634
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 2: and don't need that assistance too. He can't even if

635
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 2: you average thirty, he still needs somebody else to go

636
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 2: get twenty. And we know Julius Reynald can get you

637
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 2: twenty in teams. So I feel like from that standpoint,

638
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 2: it's kind of solved the issue that both teams had.

639
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 2: They could have got ugly, you know what I'm saying,

640
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,919
Speaker 2: and it gives them a chance to just move on

641
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,199
Speaker 2: and kind of like all parties is good and they

642
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 2: could both still be successful competitive teams. And I felt like,

643
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 2: I feel like that deal was one of the deals,

644
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 2: one of the few deals. Like, man, this is kind

645
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 2: of like an even deal where it worked out for

646
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 2: both teams to me in my opinion.

647
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 3: And Q, like it's different when you were the man

648
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 3: in New York and now somebody's came and kind of

649
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 3: his rise kind of not moved to the side. But

650
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 3: now you guys are both the man versus I'm going

651
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 3: to this dude's team, so it's a different respect level,

652
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 3: Like this is his team as the guy and to

653
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 3: your other points, giving up the ball more, he's doing

654
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 3: that more. But don't forget he had that Olympic summer.

655
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 3: He watched Steph, he watched KD. He watched those guys.

656
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 3: Get Okay, that's a cheat code. Okay, if I can

657
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 3: give it up, say some energy, still score, still in

658
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 3: power these other dudes, I'll be a better player.

659
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 4: So yeah, it worked on both sides. Yeah, definitely.

660
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 2: We kind of spoke on the Grizzlies already, but I

661
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 2: want to talk about how big a deal is DeMar

662
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 2: Derozen going out there to Sacramento, because we know that

663
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: they had a real solid you know that, like the

664
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 2: being team and all that. They had it rocking last

665
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 2: year and they had a real good team and then

666
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: they started to Obviously, if anybody, they get those injuries

667
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 2: that kind of bring them down. But what do you

668
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 2: think that he's bringing when he's coming through the door,

669
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 2: because he still was like him and Daron Fox were

670
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 2: like the best clutch players in the league last year,

671
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 2: both of them together. I mean, obviously the Rozan was

672
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: with the Bulls, but he won the award for clutch

673
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 2: Player of the Year, and DeRozan, i mean, Dearon Fox

674
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 2: was right there.

675
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: So you put both of those.

676
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: Guys on the same team and still got Saboni Is

677
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 2: Murray and the elik and the whole everything they got

678
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 2: the off of what y'all see the Kings doing and

679
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: how you looking at them.

680
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 3: Okay, I would say they needed that because with their

681
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 3: team and how young they are, they're all going through

682
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 3: the same like journey together. You need somebody like no,

683
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 3: I can see what's around them, trees, I've already been

684
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 3: down that road. I can help you out, like you know,

685
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 3: give them kind of be a coach on the floor,

686
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 3: but still perform, still get it done.

687
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 4: Somebody they respect.

688
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 3: Like, like you said, it's a cheat code to have

689
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 3: somebody one player in the league to be able to

690
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 3: be topping.

691
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 4: The clutch points.

692
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 3: To have two, it's like, oh man, you know, teams

693
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 3: ain't got just two lockdown defenders to lock both of

694
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 3: us up, right.

695
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 4: So I think that's a great move.

696
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I totally agree. They two of the best four

697
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 5: quarter players in the league. And to add him to

698
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 5: the table, a veteran, a solid player, a great teammate,

699
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 5: the way you carry yourself, I think it was a

700
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 5: win win for them to add him on to what

701
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 5: they got going on.

702
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, big time leader. Let's talk about themakers Man. Ben

703
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 2: Mall's former teammate JJ Reddick is making his coaching debut

704
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 2: fresh out of the media booth. Baby, we got we

705
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 2: got lebron.

706
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: And what is it?

707
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 2: You're twenty two, twenty two, twenty two crazy? We got

708
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 2: bron and your twenty two playing with his son, Bronnie.

709
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: First time in NBA history to ever see something where

710
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 2: a dude can sustain this type man. He most people

711
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 2: just want to make it. He's still great at this

712
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 2: age and now he got a son playing with him.

713
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 2: Then you got Anthony Anthony Davis again. What do y'all

714
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: see the Lakers doing this year? You know what I'm

715
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 2: most interested in. I want to see my man, JJ's

716
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 2: his whole demeanor over there. I just want to see

717
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 2: the swag and the demeano bit, because we know how

718
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: JJ is. I don't know what everybody else think, but

719
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 2: J Jason, he's a little feisty individual man.

720
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: He's not this little smiling.

721
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 4: You know, maint him. That is not him for me.

722
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 3: It's just it's gonna be interesting because there's so many

723
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 3: different layers to it, right, Like the Lakers they pushed

724
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 3: Denver last year. They you know, we had that series,

725
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 3: so I saw they lost four too. But the games

726
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 3: were a lot closer than people would think. The series

727
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 3: was a lot closer than people would think. What are

728
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 3: they trying to do?

729
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 4: You know?

730
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 3: I think they were criticized in the past for movement.

731
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 3: We know JJ, in his system and the way he teaches,

732
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 3: he loves movement. But is everybody going to buy into

733
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 3: that movement?

734
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 4: Right?

735
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 3: Is everybody going to buy into how he wants to play,

736
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 3: giving it up, cutting screening for somebody, getting somebody else open.

737
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 3: I think that's JJ strength. And then Briannie being there

738
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 3: obviously is an unbelievable story. We thought we would never

739
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 3: see this in basketball, especially because we all know the

740
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 3: where and tear and how, you know how perfect things

741
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 3: have to go to even have an opportunity at that.

742
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 3: So that's gonna be a story. But either way, we'll

743
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 3: be talking about the Lakers all year. That's just what

744
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 3: it is. What it is, That's what it is, right,

745
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 3: So I think they'll have a better record this year.

746
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 3: I'm interested to see how they kind of formulating, how

747
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 3: they adjust, and how they kind of evolved under JJ's presence.

748
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 4: But we know he'll be prepared. We know he's gonna

749
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 4: challenge them.

750
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 3: You know, we know he's gonna hold them accountable, so

751
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 3: I'm interested to see how that whole dynamic work.

752
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just funny to see JJ over there on

753
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 5: the bench just saying, just doing the interview with him,

754
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 5: and now he's the Lakers coach.

755
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: It's just funny to see that.

756
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 5: But preseason, for what I've seen, like the horn action,

757
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 5: the movement, the cutting, the back door cutting and all that,

758
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 5: I love it for them. It don't be ball dominant

759
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 5: where you see Lebron just holding the balls or Delo

760
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 5: holding the ball or being just in your spot and

761
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 5: just waiting to see what Lebron ad or Dlo is

762
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 5: gonna do. I love how they moving. I love what

763
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 5: he bringing to the table so far. Like I say,

764
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 5: I love the horn action, the back door, the dribble handoffs.

765
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 5: I love how he got them moving. And I think

766
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 5: this is something great for Lebron because he can preserve

767
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 5: a lot of energy if the team is playing in

768
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 5: that sense. Uh, something like how Phil Jackson had with

769
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 5: with the triangle offense. Like now we don't got to

770
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 5: put all that pressure on Mike to drivele and run

771
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 5: and do all this.

772
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 1: We can put you in spots and you can just

773
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: run through the offense. Lakers.

774
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 5: You know we're gonna have to see you know. You know,

775
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 5: I'm still rooting for my Clippers to stay better than them,

776
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 5: so I can't I can't give them too much problem.

777
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,640
Speaker 5: But I like what j Jaden kind of brought to

778
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 5: the table so far in preseason.

779
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: I think this.

780
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 5: I'm interested to see how it how it plays out

781
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 5: this year since you.

782
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 2: Brought them up.

783
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: Let's talk about them, Clippers all. Let's talk about the Clips. So, yeah,

784
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 1: you know them anytime you talk about them, anytime.

785
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 2: They open up that new into it tho, which is

786
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 2: crazy phenomenal. Yeah.

787
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, we got the best stadium in the league.

788
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Steve Bomber did the damn thing like non

789
00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: nothing on that one. What you what you see the

790
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 2: Paul George lists Clippers doing. I hate to say that

791
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,240
Speaker 2: Paul George list, but Paul PG is in Philly.

792
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: We wish him well, salute, We still rock with you.

793
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but what the clip is looking like with life

794
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 2: after PG?

795
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's sad to see PG go, but I'm excited

796
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,040
Speaker 5: for James Harden. James Harden is put right back in

797
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 5: another position where he has to step up and be

798
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 5: the man again, which we done seen for countless years.

799
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 5: I'm excited for him, but I'm really excited for a

800
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 5: few young guys. Big Ki Man, he looking man. He's running,

801
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 5: He's running that floor, he's blocking shots, he's finishing at

802
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 5: the rim. The energy that he brings is just contagious.

803
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 5: I love that to be him, to be a backup

804
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 5: center for Zubab, I think it's great. I'm glad to

805
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 5: see him back in the league and I'm rooting for

806
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 5: I'm glad to see what he got going. For another

807
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 5: guy that I'm glad to see back in the league,

808
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 5: Kevin porter Man.

809
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: He looked good in preseason two.

810
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 5: Man, it's a blessing to get a guy with his

811
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 5: type of talent to come off the bench. I think

812
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 5: now we might not have a bunch of superstars like

813
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 5: how we had three or four superstars on the team,

814
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 5: but with James Hard and Kawhi Lennar, I feel like

815
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 5: we got a lot of players added that'll be great.

816
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,319
Speaker 5: I think Derrick Jones Junior, I feel like he's a

817
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 5: veteran out he's learned. He done went to the finals

818
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 5: last year. I feel like he's a better player now.

819
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 5: Bringing Batune back I feel like we're deep. I feel

820
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:24,439
Speaker 5: like we got a good ten man roster to go

821
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 5: and compete for anything that's going on in the West,

822
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 5: So I'm excited for him.

823
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:30,760
Speaker 1: The biggest thing is to make.

824
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 5: Sure Kawhi is healthy, so we monitor him all year

825
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 5: and hopefully we get to the playoffs healthy and give

826
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 5: a nice little push.

827
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: What do you think, mam? Yeah, I think James is

828
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 2: always better when he's needed, when he's the offense, when

829
00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: he can dictate, and it keeps him more motivated, It

830
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 2: keeps him engaged, It keeps him where he has to

831
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,280
Speaker 2: move chess pieces like, Okay, I'm gonna get my twenty

832
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:55,959
Speaker 2: five to ten.

833
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 3: I gotta utilize these dudes to be able to give

834
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 3: us a win. It's almost like, not no disrespect, but

835
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:03,879
Speaker 3: it's almost like he's at the Drew League again.

836
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 4: Balls in your.

837
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 3: Hands, you get to navigate and do what you want,

838
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 3: put people in position, and then to d Miles point

839
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 3: the young players, Kevin Porter Jr. Big Cod, Those guys

840
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 3: are gonna balance, especially contract wise and money wise, missing PG,

841
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 3: missing Kawhi. You know who knows when Kawhi comes back.

842
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 3: Hopefully you know as soon, but if not, James is

843
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 3: the lead dog. You have an early Max.

844
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 2: Guy and Kevin Porter Junior, who's just a Max guy

845
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, coming off your Bitch playing

846
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 2: against second unit guys, they can surprise some people. And

847
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 2: they got Bones Hyland who can organize, and who's a

848
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:40,880
Speaker 2: bucket as well. So I like their pieces.

849
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 3: Big Zoo is consistent, U t Man is gonna be very,

850
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 3: very valuable, Norman Powell. So they have some really good pieces,

851
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 3: and I think t Lu is underrated. Tlu is an

852
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:50,399
Speaker 3: unbelievable coach.

853
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 2: One of the best coaches in the league. Played for

854
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 2: him and just watched him closely the other day in person,

855
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 2: just seeing his moves, how he navigates team, the pressure.

856
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 3: He puts on them, when to get on him, when

857
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 3: to back up. He has that feel that you know,

858
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: the players and great minds have. So I'm excited about

859
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:09,160
Speaker 3: the Clippers.

860
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, you just said that, you said you want to.

861
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 2: You hope san Antonio can make a little push to

862
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 2: getting the play in. You got New Orleans, you got

863
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 2: you got you know what I'm saying, You got Memphis,

864
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 2: you got all these teams that were out last year,

865
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 2: but looking like yeah, Houston coming and trying to get

866
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 2: like that. You got all these teams fighting. So if Memphis,

867
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 2: so one of these teams is in, who coming out? Denver, Phoenix, Dallas, Okay, See,

868
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:44,919
Speaker 2: Clippers not for well that's when the other two coming

869
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 2: in LA teams come in.

870
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 4: But that what I'm saying, so nowhere.

871
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 1: So that's what I'm saying.

872
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 2: So so Denver's a lot, Phoenix is a lot, Dallas

873
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 2: is a lot.

874
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 1: Okay, See is a lot. Who else is a lot?

875
00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 2: Memphis, Clippers, Lakers, New Orleans, Houston, Antonio.

876
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 1: Just a big royal rumble.

877
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 5: You know, we're gonna see if we get thrown out

878
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 5: the ring and it's.

879
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: Gonna go down all year in the West. Like last year.

880
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,800
Speaker 2: I can remember back to being in the preseason and

881
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 2: saying like, yo, I have no clue. You know what

882
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,439
Speaker 2: I'm saying, Like what like I think I think that's

883
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,760
Speaker 2: what you know? The league and Adam Silva was working

884
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 2: for a more more period year around the league and

885
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,239
Speaker 2: not you know what I'm saying, it's not the same

886
00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 2: where previous years. You come in, all right, well lebron

887
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 2: At they got a chance, and then the Warriors got

888
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 2: a chance and it was like that little cluster of

889
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,480
Speaker 2: them three four teams where it was like one of

890
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 2: these teams is gonna win.

891
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: Like this year.

892
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 2: Obviously the Celtics they stand out at the top because

893
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 2: they bring everybody back from a dominant playoff championship run,

894
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 2: so you gotta give them their proper respect. But after that,

895
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 2: it's like it's a million things that could happen. Things

896
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 2: would go all type of different ways, and nobody would

897
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,399
Speaker 2: really be shot. And even if Boston and didn't win

898
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 2: it or whatever and got put out, you wouldn't be

899
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 2: just shocked or amazed, you know what I'm saying, because

900
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 2: it's just it's that kind of openness to it in

901
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,320
Speaker 2: anybody if they get hot, or if this happened or

902
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 2: if that happened, like you could see whoever getting a chance, right.

903
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I definitely agree with that. Like we come up

904
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 5: in eras where we see a team mostly or two

905
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 5: teams mostly dominate the decade. To see the last couple

906
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,280
Speaker 5: of years it's been six different teams winning the championship.

907
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 5: It's definitely new territory. It minds me of football a

908
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 5: little bit, but I'm excited for it, Like that's what

909
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 5: it's for man, anybody can win it. Everybody get a chance.

910
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 5: From me, it wasn't like that when we was playing.

911
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 5: It was like the team was mostly dominating. But but

912
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 5: I think it's good for the league to see anybody

913
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 5: have a chance at the title.

914
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, the league and the fans like, we don't want

915
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 3: to know who. We don't want to go to the

916
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 3: movie and no how it's going to end.

917
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 2: We want to go through all the upstowns teams that

918
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 2: believe need to make them move. They be like, man,

919
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 2: we on need one piece away. We need a bunch

920
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 2: of teams to believe that right, like to to try

921
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 2: to get better and better because the product's gonna better,

922
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 2: they gonna play at a higher level.

923
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 4: So I'm excited that we don't know.

924
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 3: I'm excited that teams all feel like they're one piece

925
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 3: away and they're all gonna work for it.

926
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 4: You know. I think even New Orleans got better to y'all.

927
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,839
Speaker 4: Ta Murray. I think this will be.

928
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 2: The best chapter in his career being a leader, and

929
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 2: he's already going there with the mindset. I would to

930
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 2: leave the league in assists like if you go with

931
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 2: that mindset to set the tone, they gonna fall live

932
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 2: they gonna put the ball in your hands and let you,

933
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 2: you know, kind of help empower everybody else.

934
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 4: So I'm excited about where the league is.

935
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 2: This been a chatter a little bit like, and I

936
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 2: say this respectfully, We in the midst of like the

937
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 2: you know, the changing of the guard with the older guys,

938
00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 2: kind of like passing the torch, you know, with the Lebrons,

939
00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 2: the kds, the steps passing the torch to the ants,

940
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,800
Speaker 2: the SGA's, the Jabs, the Jason Tatums and those guys.

941
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 2: And I say, like when I say, I say they

942
00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 2: respectfully because it doesn't I don't want to say that

943
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 2: and make it seem like those guys I watch, because

944
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 2: these guys are still who they are. They still can

945
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 2: go give you forty and still go do that. But

946
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 2: at the end of the day they passed the back

947
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 2: They on their back line almost at the end of

948
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 2: the day back now, I'm saying from that respect as

949
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,440
Speaker 2: far as a real time clock, so like, are we

950
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 2: coming into that phase right now with those guys. It's

951
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 2: about to be their time to take the manter and

952
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 2: be like those league guys that it's like the faces

953
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 2: of the league, all of the commercials and it's that

954
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 2: and the third of people that kind of you look

955
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 2: to as the as the league.

956
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we've been. I think we've been.

957
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 5: I think that was a year maybe even two years

958
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 5: ago that that's been been gone. When they kind of

959
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 5: when they kind of put the top five guys in

960
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 5: the league, it's all new guys. It's all the kind

961
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 5: of new era, you know. So I think the torch

962
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 5: has been passed. I think, you know, they they're just

963
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 5: the older guys now and they still they have such

964
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 5: a long legacy that you hold them there same way

965
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 5: we used to hold Kobe there when when when Lebron

966
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 5: was the best player at the end of Kobe's career,

967
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 5: But we still hold at Kobe there because he did

968
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 5: so much for so many, so many years. But the

969
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 5: torch was passed. It has been passed. So I think

970
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 5: that's what we're in now. I think it's been probably

971
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,320
Speaker 5: a year or two and it's already been passed.

972
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:17,920
Speaker 4: For me, they ain't passed it.

973
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 3: They let him touch the torch, but they said, nah,

974
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 3: it's still are if you look at if you look

975
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 3: at USA basketball and when it was time to win

976
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 3: a championship, it was in three dudes who have been

977
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 3: the best player of our generation who was out there

978
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,920
Speaker 3: still not just with their voice, but actually getting it

979
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,880
Speaker 3: done and their own competitiveness and ego. Ain't letting them

980
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:36,800
Speaker 3: just pass it like that because they all three of

981
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 3: them dudes feel like they can still go win another championship.

982
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 4: If they get a piece here or move there.

983
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,439
Speaker 3: So you right, the Moles, I think we've at least

984
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 3: we know who is going to pass to.

985
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 4: But I don't think those three are trying to pass yet.

986
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 2: They're the omri ones like nah, you gotta come really

987
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 2: just take it where I'm like, okay, like George did magic,

988
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 2: Like all right, Okay, ain't nothing I gonna do.

989
00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 4: It's yours now. I think they still feel like they

990
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:00,880
Speaker 4: have a fight left.

991
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, but outside of Steph, none of them guys have

992
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 5: won a championship in the last six years. You know,

993
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 5: it's always it's been a new guy like joking and

994
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 5: got on one, Joanniston, got them one, tat them them

995
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 5: and got them one.

996
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

997
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 5: So regardless if they want to pass it or not,

998
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,800
Speaker 5: same thing like I said with the Lebron and Kobe

999
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 5: at the end, REGARDSS if he wanted to pass it

1000
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 5: or not.

1001
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:26,960
Speaker 1: This is this is just what's happening.

1002
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:28,319
Speaker 4: You're you're right.

1003
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 3: But the difference, the only difference is when when MJ

1004
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 3: wouldn't got one and he wouldn't got two, then he

1005
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 3: got on and got three, so he took it.

1006
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 4: There's always been somebody new that's got one.

1007
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 2: They're like, well, if everybody's winning one, we can go

1008
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 2: back and get another way.

1009
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:45,160
Speaker 1: Like I like, where both of y'all going with?

1010
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,279
Speaker 2: I Like, that's why I say respectful, cause it's like

1011
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:50,919
Speaker 2: when you talk about these three, dude, like you said

1012
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 2: you can you can you can use that right there

1013
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 2: as evidence to the Olympics. They they were the leaders

1014
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 2: of the team in the Olympics, But would they come

1015
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 2: back to their teams and lead them to the champions right?

1016
00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 2: So they do that. Ain't nobody snatched nothing? You feel

1017
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 2: me like, so we got to see but like that

1018
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:07,720
Speaker 2: That's why.

1019
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,879
Speaker 1: I asked the Olympics was a choice.

1020
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 2: And I said, respectfully, you know what I'm saying, Like

1021
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:13,959
Speaker 2: not Olympics was that.

1022
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,720
Speaker 1: Was that was a coach's choice.

1023
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 5: They didn't play Jason Tatum, they didn't play to the

1024
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 5: guys that was the closest coaches choice to play the

1025
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 5: veteran players like nothing against step nothing against Steph Curry

1026
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 5: or nobody else, but Steph Curry didn't play good all them.

1027
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 1: Games until the last two games. For real.

1028
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 5: If the coach would have made a choice on playing

1029
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 5: the young guys and stuff, we probably would have never

1030
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 5: seen them big games from Steph. But he chose to

1031
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 5: stick with them veterans. But the torches, it's gone. They

1032
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:51,399
Speaker 5: just like, I don't know, like no disrespect to to them.

1033
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: You know.

1034
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,279
Speaker 5: They still some of my favorite players, lebron K d

1035
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 5: and and Steph, But them young guys is here.

1036
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:00,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's here.

1037
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 1: That's a for show right now.

1038
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 2: Hey, let me get some of these awards predictions out

1039
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 2: the way because this is gonna be interesting here, man.

1040
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 2: I want to start with the biggest one with MVP.

1041
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 2: Who y'all got. Y'all could say anybody's name, Who y'all got?

1042
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 5: I got s g A. I think s c A.

1043
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 5: He's seen the light. He just didn't get all the

1044
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,560
Speaker 5: way to it. And I feel like he's gonna he's

1045
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 5: gonna come back again and and and have Okay, he

1046
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 5: got a little bit more help the team that got

1047
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 5: better over the summer. He's healthy. I think SGA or

1048
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:35,720
Speaker 5: Luca is gonna win MVP.

1049
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Luca wins this one this year because

1050
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,560
Speaker 3: I wanted s G A. You know, we've all been

1051
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 3: there with that one year, were close to All Star.

1052
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 3: We're like, man, if we could just make it this time,

1053
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,280
Speaker 3: because it may not come back around. I think SGA

1054
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 3: and Okacs surprised how they were last year. I caught

1055
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 3: everybody off guard with his time to win it. Now

1056
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,479
Speaker 3: if he everge thirty, I'm like, yeah, we average thirty

1057
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 3: last year. So I think Luca is like prime to

1058
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 3: win it, especially after going to the finals and his

1059
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 3: numbers are ridiculous.

1060
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna say Luca is the early MVP for me.

1061
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 2: I can't argue with either of them. I can see

1062
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,520
Speaker 2: it happening for both. But I could also see an

1063
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 2: argument for SGA because like he legit, both of them, dudes,

1064
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 2: Luca and Esgit, they can't be stopped. Like I think,

1065
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 2: like SGA hit thirty like fifty some times last year,

1066
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,800
Speaker 2: Like that's insane, Like you can't stop me, you know

1067
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 2: what I'm saying, Like that's what I'm telling you. But

1068
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:29,920
Speaker 2: like I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go, and man, Bro,

1069
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go, and man. I like the energy he

1070
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 2: was showing up with already on the preseason. I feel

1071
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,879
Speaker 2: like I feel like he legit in the best best

1072
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: shape he's ever been there playing basketball, Like going through

1073
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:45,160
Speaker 2: that summer and having the work and be ready and

1074
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,400
Speaker 2: be being top top tier shape for the Olympics, and

1075
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 2: then coming straight out of that going into you know

1076
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 2: what I'm saying the season, I think he gonna go

1077
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 2: to another level this year. Like you said, he was

1078
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 2: around there like he was he was Kd's little bro.

1079
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 2: He was hanging around getting them vibes, just brushing up

1080
00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:04,240
Speaker 2: against all that greatness all summer. And you saw him

1081
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 2: prior to that, you saw him in the playoffs. He

1082
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 2: was game. I just felt like he kind of ran

1083
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 2: out of gas a little bit because of the conditioning.

1084
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 1: But I feel like this year.

1085
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 2: Like he been, he been there, he know how far

1086
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 2: he got it. I think it's gonna be a different animal.

1087
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 2: Like I said, I just like, bro, when I watch him,

1088
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 2: he wanted a few dudes and like I connect. I

1089
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 2: feel like that's how you know what I'm saying. I

1090
00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 2: was when I played AU when I found out it

1091
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 2: was rankings and it was dudes, but like I was

1092
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 2: trying to go get him, and I feel like that's

1093
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 2: what he be doing. And like when you see him out,

1094
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 2: I told y'all, you know what I'm saying, like talking

1095
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 2: like I feel that I resonate with the way when

1096
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 2: he out there playing, bro, I be getting geeked. I

1097
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 2: be found myself on the I'm standing up like, look

1098
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:47,840
Speaker 2: at him, look like he talking that Like you already know,

1099
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:49,800
Speaker 2: I'm rolling with that energy.

1100
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 4: So I feel like the current animal.

1101
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,920
Speaker 2: Huh Hey, listen, real talk, bro, real talk, young fella,

1102
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 2: young fella, got it. Let's go to DPO. Why I'm

1103
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 2: gonna start this one. No, because Wmby should have won

1104
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 2: it last year. Yeah, it ne't been no conversation last year,

1105
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 2: No disrespect, Rudy Gobell. You a great defensive player, y'all.

1106
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:14,560
Speaker 2: Was a number one defensive team. But Wimby's statistics dwarfs

1107
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 2: anybody's close to him. And because he wasn't on the Like,

1108
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 2: is this the defensive team of the year or the

1109
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 2: defensive player of the year, Because if you're going by that,

1110
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 2: it was Wen Binyama and that's who that's who I'm

1111
00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 2: choosing this year, y'all. Can you know say whatever after that?

1112
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 2: Go ahead, MA, I'm gonna follow that cab well he said, Yeah.

1113
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,240
Speaker 3: I'm going with Winby first, and if for whatever reason

1114
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 3: it's not Wenby, I would love to see Bam because

1115
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 3: Bam takes every challenge. He guards the perimeter, he guards

1116
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 3: the people to post, every position he's he's so good defensive.

1117
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,560
Speaker 3: You forget how tall he is at times because he's

1118
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 3: he's really guarden guards. So I'm gonna go Winby first

1119
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 3: and Bam second.

1120
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely gotta give I don't think he'll be

1121
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 2: able to get it, but I gotta give him love

1122
00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,479
Speaker 2: because of the I say, he one of them dudes

1123
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 2: who legit, I got one through five like here, got

1124
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 2: a point guard for the last ten seconds of possession

1125
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 2: to give him hell like at six nine sixteen.

1126
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, who y'all got for Rookie of the Year.

1127
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 2: I think that the favorite right now was was Eadie

1128
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 2: the Big kid Zact Eadie from Memphis, Who y'all, I like,

1129
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you who I like bro. I like,

1130
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 2: I like the young kid for the Spurs, Castle Man

1131
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,919
Speaker 2: from the summer from summer league to what I've seen

1132
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:30,520
Speaker 2: in preseason um rolling.

1133
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: I like young fella.

1134
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:33,520
Speaker 2: Young fella looked like he got a chance to be

1135
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 2: one of them like he and he like a big guard.

1136
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,400
Speaker 2: To me, he like a combo six y five type

1137
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 2: that could play one or two. Because I didn't seen

1138
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 2: him hand doing drop din's and go get his own.

1139
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 2: So I'm like, I don't know, I like him.

1140
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: Who you like the moth? Yeah?

1141
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 5: I was finna say Reeed Shepard. I think he's uh.

1142
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 5: I think uh he's the one that's gonna get a

1143
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 5: lot of playing time out of most of the rookies

1144
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,440
Speaker 5: that I've seen. I feel like he's fit perfect with

1145
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:02,839
Speaker 5: that team. Uh.

1146
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna probably be that the rookie of

1147
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 1: the year.

1148
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Rob Dillinghan because I think his

1149
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 3: team will have enough wins shifty and he's gonna have

1150
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:14,879
Speaker 3: the ball in his hands in the second unit.

1151
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 4: He can get points and assists.

1152
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 2: He's shown he's still a bucket on this left.

1153
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 4: He's a bucket.

1154
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,359
Speaker 3: I think out of all those teams, his team will

1155
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 3: have the most wins. So I'm gonna go with you

1156
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 3: put him in position so I'm gonna say Rob Dillahan, Yeah, okay.

1157
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 2: Man, Okay, let's go six man in the year. Who

1158
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:33,880
Speaker 2: you got for see? This is your category, mar you

1159
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 2: gotta go. They need to put my name on the

1160
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,760
Speaker 2: trophy hand him and Loulu Young Lulu.

1161
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go.

1162
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 2: Malik Monk Hey, yeah, I think they'll have the wins.

1163
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 4: He's he's a bucket.

1164
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,960
Speaker 3: People forget that he was up there and clutch points

1165
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 3: as well.

1166
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 4: I think he was.

1167
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 2: He may have let their team for a while with

1168
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,799
Speaker 2: clutch points and clutch baskets, which means he's playing with

1169
00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 2: the starters and playing with the bench. But when he's

1170
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 2: playing with the bench, he's the focus. When he's playing

1171
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 2: with the starters, they're still coming to him as well.

1172
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 3: So I think Malik muk uh he jumps out at

1173
00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,160
Speaker 3: me as being the early contender for six man a year.

1174
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,600
Speaker 5: Who you got Black, I'm gonna roll the dice with

1175
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 5: this one. You know, I'm gonna shake him up, roll

1176
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:18,320
Speaker 5: the dice with this.

1177
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 4: You know, I should love dice.

1178
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 1: I don't roll the dice with this one.

1179
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 5: But but I'm gonna go with with my clippers man

1180
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 5: and I'm gonna go with Kevin porter Man. I feel

1181
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 5: like he's gonna be a real nice piece off the

1182
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:36,360
Speaker 5: bench for the Clippers.

1183
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,360
Speaker 1: I feel like he's gonna he's gonna make some noise

1184
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 1: this year.

1185
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I'm gonna say the big fella nas read Man.

1186
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 2: Big fella be out there playing like he a starter,

1187
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 2: playing minutes and you know, sometimes having the finished games

1188
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,400
Speaker 2: and because he rolling so good, like he get to

1189
00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 2: finish the game, and he like a he like a

1190
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 2: starter out there. So and I think, you know, Minnesota

00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 2: will get the wins and stuff like that. And and

1192
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,759

00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,839
Speaker 2: for my dark Course of the six Man of the Year,

1196
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,479
Speaker 2: Most Improved Player of the year, Who you got here?

1197
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 2: Who you got here? Black started off Black, Most improved.

1198
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 5: Most improved. I think I'm gonna go with I think

1199
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,720
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with Scoot Henderson. I feel like he's

1200
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 5: a I feel like he's a good player. I want

1201
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,759
Speaker 5: to see him do more. I feel like it's adjustment

1202
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:38,959
Speaker 5: he had adjust to the league. But me watching him

1203
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 5: for so many years until he got here, I feel

1204
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,760
Speaker 5: like he's gonna step up and he's gonna be most improved.

1205
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 4: Who you Got, No, you ain't gonna. I want to

1206
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 4: hear yours next. Who you Got?

1207
00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:54,359
Speaker 2: C It's crazy because sometimes they'll still put like an

1208
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,600
Speaker 2: all star type player in that, Like I can see

1209
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,879
Speaker 2: Winby being in the running front. It for Winby because

1210
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 2: he he just gonna level up so much in so

1211
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:08,759
Speaker 2: many different categories. But listen, I think one of the

1212
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 2: boys is gonna have a breakout of year. I don't

1213
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 2: know if he'll win Most Improved. Is my guy in Houston?

1214
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:14,680
Speaker 2: What's his name?

1215
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 1: With more?

1216
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:22,200
Speaker 2: Young Boy is cold? Young Boy is cold bro. I

1217
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:24,879
Speaker 2: like his game. He explosive, he could shoot, he could

1218
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,799
Speaker 2: do everything. So but I mean, they got so many

1219
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,880
Speaker 2: youngsters and it's all kind of like in the same position.

1220
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if he get enough real minutes to

1221
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 2: really take it over the top. But like, he's somebody

1222
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:38,400
Speaker 2: like that that I could see just like he gonna be.

1223
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 2: I feel like he got a bright, bright future. But

1224
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,919
Speaker 2: every time I see young fella, he is he is explosive,

1225
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 2: all outside jack and he could score and shoot and

1226
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 2: do other things, though, but he got that pop to

1227
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 2: him and then he so like I like caring whitmore.

1228
00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 3: This gonna sound crazy because it's a VET. It's gonna

1229
00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:02,840
Speaker 3: sound crazy, Chris Paul. And the reason why is because

1230
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:04,880
Speaker 3: he went from on the bench and not playing as

1231
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,720
Speaker 3: much in Golden State. He's about to be a starter again.

1232
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 3: His number is gonna obviously be better if he stays

1233
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 3: healthy the whole time. I was in the gym with

1234
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 3: him this summer as well, and he looked really really sharp,

1235
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:19,719
Speaker 3: like really good. He's motivated, he's juvenated. But if I

1236
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 3: had to say a young guy, just to counter that,

1237
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:24,240
Speaker 3: I think of men Thompson.

1238
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:25,839
Speaker 4: I think he's gotten better and better.

1239
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,000
Speaker 2: I think the only thing that can stop him is

1240
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:29,920
Speaker 2: all those young dudes and.

1241
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 3: The opportunities to get But his actual game has got

1242
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 3: better and better. So I love how men Thompson plays.

1243
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I liked him to picks who y'all got for

1244
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:44,680
Speaker 5: Coach of the Year to not be biased, not be biased,

1245
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:47,439
Speaker 5: But I'm just always impressed.

1246
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,720
Speaker 1: By the job that Tyleru does.

1247
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,880
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, What he deal with with injuries,

1248
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 5: not having his team and still being in contention still

1249
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 5: being in the playoff race. I'm just always suppressed with Tyleru.

1250
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,800
Speaker 5: That's why I always hope that he has a healthy

1251
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 5: team so he can really do what he supposed to do.

1252
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:09,799
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm gonna go with tyl Lou.

1253
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:14,040
Speaker 3: I could see TIBs winning because the Knicks are gonna

1254
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 3: have a great year. Obviously it's New York, Obviously everybody's watching.

1255
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 3: I could see TIBs winning Coach of the Year because

1256
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,399
Speaker 3: if they can get because I know they're gonna play

1257
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,960
Speaker 3: hard every single night. I know they're gonna compete, They're

1258
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 3: gonna win games and stretches. Maybe they shouldn't win just

1259
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,279
Speaker 3: based on how hard they play, excuse me. So I

1260
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:35,560
Speaker 3: would say they get somewhere between fifty mid to high

1261
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:36,440
Speaker 3: fifty wins.

1262
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,360
Speaker 4: I think that does enough for him in the Eastern

1263
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 4: Coach of the Year.

1264
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 5: Can I ask you this, Should it be an Eastern

1265
00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 5: Conference Coach of the Year and a Western Conference Coach

1266
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 5: of the Year.

1267
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 2: Maybe that wouldn't be I mean the worst.

1268
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 5: I see how you see how they kind of do

1269
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 5: the you know, the Eastern Conference MVP and the Western

1270
00:56:57,920 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 5: Conference MVPHD.

1271
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,160
Speaker 2: They do that for co just I'm not mad at that.

1272
00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:04,759
Speaker 2: They should you know, it should be too. Maybe I'm

1273
00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 2: sure about to give you two for my picks right

1274
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 2: now for my pick years, so that would work probably

1275
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:10,799
Speaker 2: for me.

1276
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:11,319
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1277
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:14,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm going with Jamal Mosley.

1278
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:14,200
Speaker 1: Man.

1279
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 2: I felt like, you know, he was one of the

1280
00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 2: dudes that did an incredible job last He's done incredible

1281
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,560
Speaker 2: jobs since he's got here Orlando and got the head spot.

1282
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 2: But like I said, I look at them taking a

1283
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 2: big leap this year, and I feel like he's a

1284
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:30,680
Speaker 2: guy that's gonna be right, you know, obviously impacting that

1285
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 2: and to me, he's a great young coach and he translates.

1286
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 2: I think he I mean, obviously I'm a huge fan

1287
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 2: of t Lou deep miles. You know that that's our partner.

1288
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:43,040
Speaker 2: He would be somebody else I would mention, But I

1289
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:47,000
Speaker 2: will also mention Emo Ludoka, who he's done incredible, who

1290
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 2: has done an incredible job down there in Houston and

1291
00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 2: continues to do a credible job. They responded, Man, I

1292
00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 2: think those are a couple of the like when you

1293
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,280
Speaker 2: look at the younger coach, T lewis kind of veteran

1294
00:57:58,320 --> 00:57:59,600
Speaker 2: mode now, you know, what I'm saying, he want a

1295
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:01,560
Speaker 2: chip in Cleveland and did this and that. But I

1296
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 2: think the e Mays and the Jamal Moses are less tenured,

1297
00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 2: haven't had as many years as head coach. So I

1298
00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 2: look at those two guys, is like two of the

1299
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 2: best young head coaches in the league coming up.

1300
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 4: Ye May said that that foundation in Houston quick, So

1301
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:19,120
Speaker 4: they're only solidified. That's why fast.

1302
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 1: They got them popping. Well, he got them fast, all right?

1303
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:26,200
Speaker 1: Well who we got for finals? Predictions?

1304
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,280
Speaker 2: Who we got coming out the East, who we got

1305
00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 2: coming out the West, and then who we got winning

1306
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 2: the whole dang thing.

1307
00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:39,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, a young the time to get in the East.

1308
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 4: I'm Boston again. In the East, that's a safe bet.

1309
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 3: And I think, like we talked about, they'll be motivated

1310
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:46,160
Speaker 3: in the West.

1311
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:55,960
Speaker 4: Who coming out Phoenix can make PhiX can make to

1312
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 4: the finals? I really do.

1313
00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:01,760
Speaker 2: And something that's underrated but that needs to be kind

1314
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 2: of recognized is I think Book and KD are locked

1315
00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 2: in together again.

1316
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 4: And I think the Olympics did that for them too.

1317
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 3: You just saw how like when they first went there,

1318
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 3: they was playing with like a certain joy.

1319
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 4: They was passing up shots to get the other the ball.

1320
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,640
Speaker 3: Then it became like a lull and you know, ones in,

1321
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,880
Speaker 3: ones out, you know, just that going through that dynamic.

1322
00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,520
Speaker 3: And now they're back locked in. I think fix don't

1323
00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 3: really benefit and coach bo is over there as well.

1324
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:27,440
Speaker 2: So who wins?

1325
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 4: You can kind of deep on men. I thought I was.

1326
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 1: A deep brother.

1327
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:38,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with uh, I'm gonna go.

1328
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 2: You're going Boston to win it again? Okay, going back?

1329
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 2: What's back to?

1330
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: Back to that? I got mmm, I gotta switch it up, man.

1331
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 5: I got Philly coming out to East, Philly coming out

1332
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 5: to east. It's just early prediction, now, don't care me.

1333
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 5: I got Philly coming out the east, and I have

1334
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,560
Speaker 5: Dallas coming out the west.

1335
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 1: M M. And I got Dallas winning it.

1336
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 5: Whoa, Okay, so.

1337
01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:19,360
Speaker 2: I'm different too.

1338
01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 1: I know where you're going.

1339
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:22,480
Speaker 4: I know where you're going.

1340
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 1: With this ahead. No not, I ain't about to say that.

1341
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 2: He I'm about to say I got I got the

1342
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Bucks coming out the east, and I got okayc

1343
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 2: coming out the west. My goodness, we're keeping this tape.

1344
01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 2: This is gonna come out and got right, and I

1345
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 2: got the Bucks winning the whole dang thing.

1346
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 4: What have you seen with the Bucks recently where you believe.

1347
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:50,919
Speaker 1: About the championship.

1348
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:53,280
Speaker 4: I'm just curious. I'm just curious.

1349
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 2: I still ain't seen nobody on the planet.

1350
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:55,880
Speaker 1: Stop.

1351
01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 2: Be honest. When he's healthy, you tell me if I'm wrong.

1352
01:00:59,080 --> 01:00:59,959
Speaker 4: No, he's not wrong.

1353
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 2: Okay, So as long as as long as, like I

1354
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,120
Speaker 2: said earlier, if Dame gonna show up and be the

1355
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 2: real Dame from from like, if he gonna be back

1356
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 2: to himself and they gonna be healthy, that's to me,

1357
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 2: that's the best one two punch in the league. But

1358
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 2: can can Yanna still be unstoppable every single time and

1359
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:20,960
Speaker 2: Dame still be dang? That's the question.

1360
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:23,800
Speaker 1: That's what we gotta see. We got that's the da

1361
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:24,439
Speaker 1: Vinci code.

1362
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 2: If they figure out the da Vinci code, what's who

1363
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 2: gonnaho gonna whos gonna mess with that?

1364
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:30,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1365
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:32,360
Speaker 4: Nobody. If they can figure it out.

1366
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 2: Then listen, Dame and his full force and full strength

1367
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 2: Yanni said, his full force and full strength, Like that's

1368
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 2: that's tough right there. And I like the little pieces

1369
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:43,720
Speaker 2: they got sprinkled around them.

1370
01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: They fit.

1371
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,680
Speaker 2: They know what they doing, you know, K Middleton, And

1372
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 2: like I say, health is the biggest thing for them,

1373
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,880
Speaker 2: but that's for every team. If you know any of

1374
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 2: these teams, they lose something that it could be upside down.

1375
01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 2: But like I feel like if we're just talking about

1376
01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:01,800
Speaker 2: everybody healthy, if they full forces, like Damon Giannis is,

1377
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 2: that's very imposed, bro. And like you started off saying,

1378
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,640
Speaker 2: like that's a match made in heaven on paper, like

1379
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:08,880
Speaker 2: we just ain't seen it come.

1380
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 1: To fruition yet.

1381
01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 2: Like so if it could get there, good night, it's

1382
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:17,880
Speaker 2: a tough night for everybody, right all right, man, I

1383
01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:19,960
Speaker 2: want to talk about this random start of the week. Man,

1384
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,640
Speaker 2: this is interesting right here. This is y'all dug deep,

1385
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 2: y'all gott y'all bag on this one. This is the

1386
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 2: top ten of the most opponents played against in the

1387
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:30,360
Speaker 2: NBA history.

1388
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: So this is like.

1389
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,840
Speaker 2: Players who've been played against by the most players. Like

1390
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 2: that means you've been around for a long time and

1391
01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:40,920
