Speaker 1: on Wednesday night because we didn't have a show there
Speaker 1: for a couple of days. At the end of the week,
Speaker 1: Josh Giddy who had a well, he had an interesting weekend,
Speaker 1: didn't he, But he had a weggie. And then we
Speaker 1: had Javon Carter with a wedgie as well.
Speaker 3: So our first weekend with two weggies.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Again, this was a very long It was a
Speaker 1: long weekend.
Speaker 3: It wasn't much of a weekend. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Those were Wednesday and Friday nights, and we're up to six.
Speaker 3: It's up to six paces thirty four. I think players
Speaker 3: are just too good these days.
Speaker 1: Oh that's what's happened, is it? Yeah?
Speaker 3: I think so, because this would be the lowest rate
Speaker 3: in the modern era. Yeah, well, the modern era is
Speaker 3: totally subjective. We don't really know we tracked it, since
Speaker 3: we tracked it a decade ago. It would be by
Speaker 3: far the lowest rate. I think players are used to
Speaker 3: shooting shots. But at the same time, we could get
Speaker 3: a hot week.
Speaker 1: Well we had a lot. Yeah, that's right. They come
Speaker 1: in bunches, so we could definitely have three or four
Speaker 1: and you know over a two night span. And you know,
Speaker 1: we had the new ball last year. That was our
Speaker 1: working theory, right, A stickier ball was resulting in more wedgies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe they have gotten a little more accustomed to the ball.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We're just throwing it out there. Let's
Speaker 1: just pray for more wedgies. Okay, but we're up to six. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's get into weekend winners play along. If you're joining
Speaker 1: us live on YouTube, let's hear your winners task. Get
Speaker 1: to start where you going.
Speaker 3: We had a lot of great shots this weekend. We're
Speaker 3: going to get to a lot of them. The Magic
Speaker 3: are great, as you said, the Wolves are great. We'll
Speaker 3: get to so many. But let's start with the hot
Speaker 3: Phoenix Suns because it was just about one shot for
Speaker 3: me watching them in Madison Square Garden with the big
Speaker 3: one because they haven't played with their big three once
Speaker 3: this year and Durant was out again for the second
Speaker 3: straight game, so it was all about Devin Booker The
Speaker 3: Knicks played him pretty tough throughout the entire game, throwing
Speaker 3: guys at him. But when it was tied time ticking down,
Speaker 3: Devin Booker had the ball and he was way beyond
Speaker 3: three point line. He gave it up to Jordan Goodwin,
Speaker 3: and it looked like for the Suns, who could get
Speaker 3: a two shot and win the game. They could fly
Speaker 3: into the lane, but Jordan Goodwin, also beyond the three
Speaker 3: point line, threw it back to Devin Booker, and Devin
Speaker 3: Booker used Goodwin as a screen a little bit went
Speaker 3: up to the three point line and hit a shot
Speaker 3: where he was fading to his right, a very tough
Speaker 3: shot he had random he had Barrett sort of in
Speaker 3: his face, and as he was fading away from the arc,
Speaker 3: he banged home that three to hit the game winner.
Speaker 3: And I said, they have won seven games in a row,
Speaker 3: and without their big three playing together, Booker could just
Speaker 3: be incredible and he could be their best point guard
Speaker 3: as he was in this game. Had eleven assists in
Speaker 3: this game, and no Bradley Beal, who's going to be
Speaker 3: the shooting guard. I suppose when he comes back and
Speaker 3: plays with Booker. They got to figure that thing out
Speaker 3: because here we are, it's not quite quarter of a
Speaker 3: season yet, but we're getting close to that. And the
Speaker 3: Suns just relying on a bunch of deep guys with
Speaker 3: Devin Booker and Eric Gordon, who had twenty five in
Speaker 3: this game. I wonder with Kevin Durant, the whole Kevin
Speaker 3: Durant thing. He did practice pretty hard before this game.
Speaker 3: He warmed up on that foot that is hurt. Unlike
Speaker 3: Bradley Beal, who's going to be out weeks, you expect
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant to come back. But again, they're gonna be
Speaker 3: at the quarter mark, getting close to Christmas and having
Speaker 3: not played a game, but they looked so fricking good.
Speaker 3: They go into Madison Square Garden with Booker doing this
Speaker 3: thing kind of look like playoff Booker again, and they
Speaker 3: win the road record of seven to two, which I'm
Speaker 3: shocked by. That's yeah, damn damn good. But I'm starting
Speaker 3: to see playoff Suns, you know, without having played altogether.
Speaker 3: But they do have enough depth around these guys, and
Speaker 3: that's why I bring it up. And they could board
Speaker 3: against these Knicks, who are so freaking good on that end.
Speaker 3: They can play big enough.
Speaker 1: Booker shot absolutely deserving of the Father Stretched My Hands
Speaker 1: Part one treatment. You know the Kanye song where builds
Speaker 1: and builds and builds.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, felt.
Speaker 1: Like it because you're right, he has it. They did
Speaker 1: do a great job of like taking the ball out
Speaker 1: of his hands throughout the entire game. But he's okay
Speaker 1: with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, point book.
Speaker 1: I think he's averaging like nine as sis per game.
Speaker 3: He's like one of the leaders in the league.
Speaker 1: But yeah, then got it back a little too easily.
Speaker 1: But man, when you hit a shot like that, like
Speaker 1: you can't play it much better. The guy's fading in
Speaker 1: front of the opponent's bench there, you know, Randall's there,
Speaker 1: our J's there, Like the hand is up and he
Speaker 1: just rises up and yeah, fades away, hits it. Almost
Speaker 1: no reaction from him at all. What he does against
Speaker 1: the Knicks, he like scores like thirty points per game
Speaker 1: against him. I know there was a screen grab going
Speaker 1: around of like, you know, it's Wilt and it's Jordan
Speaker 1: and Durant and like Kobe and Booker, guys that have
Speaker 1: scored over thirty points per game against the Knicks, like average,
Speaker 1: but an incredible shot and close to falling and tying
Speaker 1: the game Brunson with like two seconds to go. He's
Speaker 1: sort of like it was a weird shot where he
Speaker 1: sort of spun and just threw it up and that
Speaker 1: thing almost dropped. But yeah, what a run here from
Speaker 1: from Booker obviously from the Suns without having their big three,
Speaker 1: and you slipped it in there. Your guy that you
Speaker 1: love Eric Gordon. I mean you loved him way back
Speaker 1: in the Clippers days twenty five points. He's had a
Speaker 1: couple of these games where he's obviously just hitting threes
Speaker 1: and contributing enough offensively for them. He was great in Listen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and on our Thanksgiving show it called him the
Speaker 3: Cranberry Sauce because he's all reliable. You have Cranberry sauce
Speaker 3: on every table. You may not love it, you may
Speaker 3: not love Eric Gordon, but he knows how to hit shots,
Speaker 3: talking about players that don't have wedgies. Over the years,
Speaker 3: like he has learned. We've gone through the numbers. He's
Speaker 3: just grown into a three point shooter over and over
Speaker 3: and over again. He's incredible here subbing in. He was
Speaker 3: six of nine from three point land in this game.
Speaker 3: I think the thing that the Knicks could have done
Speaker 3: is gotten the ball out of Booker's hands like he
Speaker 3: was well beyond three point line. But I guess they
Speaker 3: were scared, as I brought up of anybody getting in
Speaker 3: two point lane.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a high gee. Yeah, So it wasn't
Speaker 1: like they were just trying to take away three. Yeah,
Speaker 1: otherwise he maybe play it differently. I mean, look, they
Speaker 1: got it out of his hands and then he was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna.
Speaker 3: Go get it right back. You just went and got
Speaker 3: it right back. Yeah. Yeah. And you brought up teams
Speaker 3: that are doing so well. Durant hasn't lost in New
Speaker 3: York in over a decade, which is a weird set.
Speaker 3: How many teams he's played for. Good teams, but different teams. Okay,
Speaker 3: see and Golden State and he played for one. So yeah,
Speaker 3: the Sounds has just got it together. They do have
Speaker 3: a good and the fact that the Knicks they play
Speaker 3: real slow, that's what they do, but they play it
Speaker 3: real big. They're a great defensive rebounding team, and they're
Speaker 3: a great offensive rebounding team. And that's where I wonder
Speaker 3: with the Suns and their starter of Nurkic and who
Speaker 3: their backup is with Drew Eubanks, like, do they have
Speaker 3: enough size in this one? That impressed me that they
Speaker 3: were able to board with the Knicks and Durant is
Speaker 3: a four who wants to play real, real big in
Speaker 3: the playoffs. So I'm thinking of this team in the postseason.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about great teams here, but at this postseason
Speaker 3: collection of guys, if they get some reps together, they
Speaker 3: need to play together.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be Like. On one hand, you're like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, they're eleven and six, they're near the
Speaker 1: top of the Western Conference standings despite their big three
Speaker 1: not playing all at the same time, that's good. The
Speaker 1: flip side of that is, they got to get some
Speaker 1: reps together. They have to play together at some point, right,
Speaker 1: at some point in this season. And when they all
Speaker 1: three do play, will there be growing paints in terms
Speaker 1: of like, yeah, you know, obviously Booker is their point guard,
Speaker 1: but let's just get into the flow of things getting
Speaker 1: their shots, and it sort of trickles down to all
Speaker 1: the other guys too that are contributing. You know, their
Speaker 1: minutes are reduced, their roles are probably reduced, and you
Speaker 1: got to figure that out. But I guess, look, I
Speaker 1: think most Suns fans, if you had said that big
Speaker 1: three you got during the summer, they haven't played at all,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna be an eleven and six, like, you know,
Speaker 1: winning seven in a row. I think you're gonna be
Speaker 1: okay with that, right, You're gonna be happy with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I just had some flashbacks to the Nets
Speaker 3: big three. They look great when they had n't played together, right,
Speaker 3: But then Kyrie gets hurt and Harden gets hurt, and
Speaker 3: Durant's toes are too big against the Milwaukee boxes. He
Speaker 3: hits a shot that could have been a three pointer,
Speaker 3: but it was a two pointer because his shoes are large,
Speaker 3: because they're so skinny, he goes large. Anyway. Will Bradley
Speaker 3: bealill be able to able to stay healthy in the post?
Speaker 3: That's the question, because he hasn't been. No, and that
Speaker 3: was that was some sort of a big story coming
Speaker 3: into this season. Oh, Bradley Beal hasn't played the last
Speaker 3: two years, which I thought I shot down. I thought, Okay,
Speaker 3: he has taken some games off because the Washington Wizards
Speaker 3: aren't an incredible team. But the back is a back.
Speaker 1: The back is the back. Ye, that's not why to
Speaker 1: go back. That's right, Okay, let's keep it going here.
Speaker 1: I want to give the Houston Rockets a winner of
Speaker 1: the weekend. They only played one game over the weekend.
Speaker 1: You know, we're not really counting here Wednesday and Thursday
Speaker 1: and all that, but they played on Friday night, got
Speaker 1: a big win thanks to Jalen Green twenty five points,
Speaker 1: Alprin Shenggun Awesome twenty one and fourteen. This guy is
Speaker 1: on a run, and they helped lead Houston to the one,
Speaker 1: five eighty six win over the Denver Nuggets. This was
Speaker 1: an nd season tournament game. Udoka said. The game plan
Speaker 1: was to try and make Jokic beat them. Guard everybody else, right,
Speaker 1: Just don't send double and triple teams at Jokic, play
Speaker 1: them one on one as much as you can with
Speaker 1: your with your schng Gun and whoever got matched up
Speaker 1: on them, and keep everybody else in check. And it
Speaker 1: did work. I mean, Yokich on a monster line, but
Speaker 1: no one else really, you know, popped off for the Nuggets.
Speaker 1: Houston improved to two and one in the tournament. Denver
Speaker 1: eliminated from even advancing to the quarterfinals, and so the
Speaker 1: Rockets now play in Dallas on Tuesday night. And here's
Speaker 1: why they really get bumped up to a winner to me,
Speaker 1: not just because of the victory, really nice victory. You
Speaker 1: know they're stringing together wins here. But over the weekend,
Speaker 1: Luka Doncic banged his left hand in like the opening
Speaker 1: minute against the Clippers, like on a steal. I think
Speaker 1: he banged it off Harden's knee or something. He's grabbing
Speaker 1: at it right away. He kept playing in the game,
Speaker 1: but he underwent X rays at halftime. They were negative.
Speaker 1: But I don't know. I don't know if he's gonna
Speaker 1: play in this Tuesday night game, like his hand was
Speaker 1: heavily bandaged. They're gonna like do it again, take another
Speaker 1: look at it, and you know they're not playing to
Speaker 1: advance either in the ist. So my point is the
Speaker 1: Rockets are set up pretty nicely here. They're on the
Speaker 1: road where they stink. They're in Dallas, like I said,
Speaker 1: But if there's no Luca and they win that game Houston,
Speaker 1: does they advance and move on from the being the
Speaker 1: winners of their group play. If they lose, the Pelicans advance.
Speaker 1: So it's a huge game and they're helped out here
Speaker 1: because like you'll wait and see if Luca plays on
Speaker 1: Tuesday night. But Mike cut would say he wouldn't fair right.
Speaker 1: I mean again, they're not playing to move on the
Speaker 1: Mavericks because they started so slowly in group play. And
Speaker 1: you know, it's your superstar player and it's a it's
Speaker 1: a badly hurt hand. You're gonna give him a little
Speaker 1: bit of time to rest here. So it could be
Speaker 1: a very very good you know, it was a winner
Speaker 1: of the weekend of the Rockets, but that could continue
Speaker 1: this week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that Dallas Clippers matchup was fun to watch because
Speaker 3: Luka Doncrich was doing his thing and fighting through the injury.
Speaker 3: But also he had that one run down the lane
Speaker 3: where he was trying to guard Russell Westbrook and Westbrook
Speaker 3: went right through him. And then Westbrook had an and
Speaker 3: one and basically said, go at him. You could you could,
Speaker 3: you could read the mouth, go at him, go at
Speaker 3: him because he loves that. That what they've had there
Speaker 3: with with the Clippers and the Mavericks and the Rockets
Speaker 3: and the Mavericks he has a relationship with Luca. He
Speaker 3: likes to go at him. So that was super fun
Speaker 3: to watch. And let's give these Rockets some respect because
Speaker 3: they are a winless team on the road. Yeah, they
Speaker 3: have not won a game. They had that win streak,
Speaker 3: you know, at the beginning of the season, six in
Speaker 3: a row. They're eight to one if I'm not mistake,
Speaker 3: and yeah at home and one five on the road.
Speaker 3: But that one to five on the road that they
Speaker 3: went on after that six game win streak to a
Speaker 3: few of those games, it was a tough loss to
Speaker 3: the Clippers, a tough loss to the Lakers, and a
Speaker 3: tough loss to the Warriors six point loss, one point loss,
Speaker 3: and a five point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're in them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're in them all the way down to the stretch.
Speaker 3: So you should consider this game up against the Mavericks
Speaker 3: for them to be the favorite. I know the MAVs
Speaker 3: are playing fairly well and they play extremely fast, but
Speaker 3: they don't play defense. I'm buying the Rockets. I'm buying
Speaker 3: the Rockets. Here. You broke it down on your Saturday
Speaker 3: pod with this D season tournament and how it's all
Speaker 3: going to shape or shick down in terms of the
Speaker 3: you know, the head to head and all that. I
Speaker 3: like the Rockets. I do believe in them.
Speaker 1: I like their chances a lot more now if if
Speaker 1: Lucas banged up or doesn't even play, and I guess
Speaker 1: we'll wait to see either today or maybe tomorrow what
Speaker 1: the status is with him. All right, let's get to
Speaker 1: the Orlando Magic. Yes, I know you got them on
Speaker 1: your list. They're just as hot as the Phoenix Suns.
Speaker 1: Seven in a row for them too.
Speaker 3: Trey better get to a game because at home, this
Speaker 3: team is it's tough to beat. This team just brings
Speaker 3: it with their deep, deep, deep team. And you may
Speaker 3: not go there and think, oh, this team is good offense,
Speaker 3: because they're bad offensively at times, but they are such
Speaker 3: a good defensive team. They're so hard to play against.
Speaker 3: A couple games this weekend, Game one against the Celtics,
Speaker 3: they made it through and they had some wicked plays
Speaker 3: as I brought up earlier Franz Wagner to Cole Anthony
Speaker 3: and for an alley Cole Anthony got up with a
Speaker 3: great throwdown. And then in the third quarter, Jalen Suggs
Speaker 3: hit a couple threes as Orlando pulled away and he
Speaker 3: waved goodbye to the Celtics. With one minute left, he
Speaker 3: hit a three and there's a lot of Celtics fans
Speaker 3: in Orlando, Yes, and so travel Yeah. He turned around
Speaker 3: to the audience. He gave a bye bye, which was
Speaker 3: he only had ten points but a thirty nine twenty
Speaker 3: two fourth quarter for the Orlando Magic. And I like
Speaker 3: that he only had ten points and only played twenty
Speaker 3: eight minutes in this game, because I like how they
Speaker 3: get deep. Cole Anthony is great playing Anthony Blacks minutes.
Speaker 3: Anthony Black is starting, mikel Foltz is out, so they
Speaker 3: had Cole Anthony playing as on the minutes. Moo Wagner
Speaker 3: came off the bench and score twenty seven. What a
Speaker 3: huge game. So there's that game and then game two
Speaker 3: Sunday they're playing Charlotte. Another great play this is Cole
Speaker 3: Anthony pick and roll with Franz Wagner. It looks like
Speaker 3: he's going to Franz Vagner, but he throws it into
Speaker 3: the corner and that's where Jalen Sucks catches it and
Speaker 3: his toes are almost on the baseline as he jumps
Speaker 3: and catches it, and it looks like if his heels
Speaker 3: go down, he's out of bounds, but he stays on
Speaker 3: his toes. He jumps straight up and hits a three.
Speaker 3: A ridiculous shot that was a lot of fun to watch.
Speaker 3: And then just overall again Cole Anthony. Although he's coming
Speaker 3: off the bench for Anthony Black, Anthony Black only played
Speaker 3: twenty minutes in those two games. Cole Anthony at thirty points,
Speaker 3: he was Montros. Franz Wagner. I think he's starting to
Speaker 3: feel it a little bit. Although he's had a good season,
Speaker 3: he started, he started slow. He's getting a little bit better.
Speaker 3: This team has won seven games in a row. They
Speaker 3: beat Charlotte, they beat Boston, and overall they yeah, as
Speaker 3: I said, Boston, Denver, Milwaukee, They've beaten so some good,
Speaker 3: good wins and you know, just just to throw it
Speaker 3: in there. Throw it in the timber Wolves as well.
Speaker 3: They are two teams that wouldn't have been expected to
Speaker 3: be up in the standings this early. I know we
Speaker 3: talked about on our Wednesday Thanksgiving show, but to be
Speaker 3: this good this early is a little surprising.
Speaker 1: Do you think Cole Anthony is the early, very early
Speaker 1: leader for a sixth Man of the Year. He's got
Speaker 1: to be on the short list. Here be on the list,
Speaker 1: And you're right, he gets a lot of minutes. It's
Speaker 1: like almost sort of the jenoble situation there where he
Speaker 1: still comes off the bench but plays a lot, but
Speaker 1: he really is contributing. That was a monster game, yeah,
Speaker 1: that second one, and he's picking his spots, like even
Speaker 1: in that Celtics wins and the Wagner brothers. Somebody fact
Speaker 1: checked me, Like, when's the last time two brothers on
Speaker 1: the same team had like back to back games where
Speaker 1: one went for twenty five and then the other guy
Speaker 1: went for twenty five. Can you imagine that's happened a
Speaker 1: ton in NBA history, right, brothers like brothers on the
Speaker 1: same team, back to bad games one twenty five plus
Speaker 1: the other twenty five plus.
Speaker 3: The Lopezes didn't do it playing milwaukee'sos didn't do it.
Speaker 1: The Holidays maybe.
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe, but probably not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then I'm sure there's some other brothers I'm
Speaker 1: forgetting forgotten brothers out there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, back to the fifties, sixties, what was your they
Speaker 3: play together.
Speaker 1: The Twins, Yeah, the Van Arsdales must have done it,
Speaker 1: Dick and Tom, Yeah, for sure they did it. So
Speaker 1: yeah magic love that love a little love there for
Speaker 1: the Wolves as well. Yeah, these teams just continuing to
Speaker 1: get it done and uh and pulled together these winning streaks.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give some love to the Milwaukee Bucks. They
Speaker 1: played some crappy teams over the weekend, interesting, but they
Speaker 1: got the w's. I have to give them a Winter
Speaker 1: of the weekend because they came back from a twenty
Speaker 1: six point deficit against the Blazers on Sunday. Yeah, Giannis
Speaker 1: hit a sort of a tie breaking tip in. It
Speaker 1: was a weird thing like Bobby Porter sort of air ball,
Speaker 1: the little hook shot when the ball sort of just
Speaker 1: ricocheted to them. But y, you know, Johnny on the
Speaker 1: spot there about nineteen seconds ago, Jiannis tips it in
Speaker 1: and that helps Milwaukee overcome again a twenty six point
Speaker 1: deficit to beat the Blazers one eight, one oh two.
Speaker 1: So they're down eighty one fifty five in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: You can never turn these games off. You just can't anymore.
Speaker 1: You can't say, oh, it's over twenty five point league,
Speaker 1: good night. No, don't do it everyone. So that is
Speaker 1: the biggest deficit overcome by any team this season. It's
Speaker 1: the bucks largest come from behind victory since twenty twelve,
Speaker 1: so way back in the day. And yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: they played in another gross game before that against the Wizards.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's these were these games were way too
Speaker 1: close for comfort for the Bucks, but they they picked
Speaker 1: them up both victories here. And I will say, just
Speaker 1: to the Sunday game, really weird to see Dame time
Speaker 1: versus his old team. Yeah, it was just it is
Speaker 1: just weird. It was jarring. He hit a big step
Speaker 1: back three in the final couple of minutes to tie
Speaker 1: things up. Then he stepped in and took a charge
Speaker 1: from Jeremy g who was a little out of control,
Speaker 1: and he picked up an assist to Beasley who splashed
Speaker 1: a three. Birthday boy, Beasley, they kept saying on the broadcast,
Speaker 1: and that gave Milwaukee a lead. And then Dame like,
Speaker 1: I stood at the free throw line because he's basically
Speaker 1: a guaranteed free throw like the guys like over his
Speaker 1: entire career best I bet he shoots like ninety five
Speaker 1: percent of the line in the fourth quarter, it feels
Speaker 1: like he never misses one. So yeah, just weird to
Speaker 1: see it against his old team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he did comment after the game that was
Speaker 3: strange playing playing my old team and handshaking with people
Speaker 3: I knew. But it also it was at home, so
Speaker 3: it wasn't as weird as if he was going in
Speaker 3: tow Orland, which happens as they look at the schedule.
Speaker 3: January thirty first is the only time that they go there.
Speaker 3: I do want to comment just on the Bucks. They
Speaker 3: got a huge game from Brook Lopez in that first
Speaker 3: game against the Wizards, looking great. Brook doesn't get enough
Speaker 3: for respect in this like, But Chris Middleton was out
Speaker 3: after the tendon nitis in his left achilles. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: so he's been out a couple of games. He had
Speaker 3: knee surgery in the offseason. He just had a lot
Speaker 3: of injuries. I just I just hope he gets back
Speaker 3: because he hasn't even played a lot. In each game
Speaker 3: that he's played this season, they're playing him light minus restriction,
Speaker 3: so they rely on other guys. It is. It's a
Speaker 3: weird scenario there with the Bucks in that they come back,
Speaker 3: like you just said, when they want to. They kind
Speaker 3: of look like a championship team when they've got the experience,
Speaker 3: they're like, Okay, let's get this together. But they haven't
Speaker 3: done it with Damian Lillard.
Speaker 1: So can they win a championship without Middleton? Yeah, that's fair,
Speaker 1: real question. Yeah, I don't think so, and yeah, what
Speaker 1: you have seen from him when he was playing in
Speaker 1: limited minutes, you know, didn't inspire you all that much.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not like he was filling it up.
Speaker 1: He looks older, he looks like a guy coming off
Speaker 1: of injury. And yeah, now it's sort of he's back
Speaker 1: on the shelf there. So something to watch for sure,
Speaker 1: I will say. In that Sunday game too against Portland,
Speaker 1: Portland appeared of have a chance to tie it up.
Speaker 1: I believe it was Brogden that drove at Giannis. He
Speaker 1: blocked it, but he was called for the foul and
Speaker 1: Griffin challenged it for the Bucks and it was the
Speaker 1: right challenge. You know, back in secaucas they overturned it.
Speaker 1: They never show us Secaccas anymore. You never noticed that rarely. Well,
Speaker 1: we used to always go to that camera in the
Speaker 1: headquarters and then everybody looking at monitors. We used to
Speaker 1: see that.
Speaker 3: All the time.
Speaker 1: I feel like they don't show us anymore a bit.
Speaker 3: I saw this sometimes they didn't on this one.
Speaker 1: But anyway, it was I think the right overturned call.
Speaker 1: There was very minimal contact. I mean, I think they
Speaker 1: got that one right, but it led to a jump
Speaker 1: ball situation because no one had possession of the ball,
Speaker 1: like when when they obviously then overturned it, so as
Speaker 1: brook Lopez and DeAndre Ayton, And it was one of
Speaker 1: these really gross jump balls where it like it went
Speaker 1: up the guy sort of fought for it, but then
Speaker 1: it just sort of fell and so then like Brooks
Speaker 1: sort of like smacked it back and luckily it went
Speaker 1: to Damian Lillard and he got it, like I said,
Speaker 1: got fouled. Hit the free throws. But you know, I
Speaker 1: keep saying, those these these late game jump ball situations.
Speaker 1: These officials got to be better. It wasn't a great throw.
Speaker 1: We need a robotic We need a we need a
Speaker 1: room but to throw it up or something or drop
Speaker 1: we need something, something a little more high tech.
Speaker 3: I hope you can buy one for cyber Monday, right,
Speaker 3: give me old. The referee should be buying rumbas.
Speaker 1: Right and then sort of like digging them up somehow
Speaker 1: to shoot the shoot the ball up.
Speaker 3: Let's do it.
Speaker 1: I think it just look cool. Wouldn't it be cool?
Speaker 1: Like everyone's like, all right, here comes the roomba. Put
Speaker 1: the ball on it, Yeah, all right, fires it up
Speaker 1: of perfectly straight.
Speaker 3: It would look awesome. Yeah, because I was just thinking
Speaker 3: of Secaucus and whether or not they were going to
Speaker 3: those shots right now. And even if they totally faked it,
Speaker 3: they just threw it on they threw an old one
Speaker 3: in there. I would be swayed that it was done
Speaker 3: right there because they could photoshop current shots on the
Speaker 3: screens of what the referees were looking at, like tonight.
Speaker 3: But because I'm swayed every time I believe that.
Speaker 1: That's like, that's like the scene in the movie Speed
Speaker 1: a Bus. Yeah, and they like, uh, they like fake
Speaker 1: loop it, don't they like the camera footage?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what they could do. Yeah, you're go ahead.
Speaker 4: It's gotta be a drone though not a room. But
Speaker 4: you don't want something We've.
Speaker 1: Tried a drone with the NBA contest that was horribly.
Speaker 4: That was twenty sixteen. They have you seen those displays
Speaker 4: of where there's one hundred drones and you know, like
Speaker 4: the fireworks. Yeah, yeah, but they're very precise, there's no
Speaker 4: wind resistance and you could put a camera. Wouldn't that
Speaker 4: be cool just seeing the ball just fall?
Speaker 1: Okay, that was pretty cool, But it does change the
Speaker 1: dynamics of a jump ball where we obviously, you know,
Speaker 1: since the start of doing jump balls. We throw it
Speaker 1: up right then it comes down. But you're saying, just
Speaker 1: have that drone up there, yeah and drop it. I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess it's the same thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, drones are just they're just advanced. I'm with you.
Speaker 3: I was in New Jersey, New York.
Speaker 1: You'll go Tocacas.
Speaker 3: I saw the sign. I always see the sign of
Speaker 3: Secaccas on the highway. Yeah, get pumped for that. But
Speaker 3: I was at the rockets. I saw the rockets and
Speaker 3: there was air quotes drones. There's fairies flying over over
Speaker 3: the crowd, which is awesome.
Speaker 4: See, we've had a bad taste in our mouth about
Speaker 4: drones drone since Aaron Gordon.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, memory, Yeah, so I mean.
Speaker 4: The technology has advanced, Yeah, amazingly.
Speaker 3: Because I saw those drones and I thought that must
Speaker 3: be hard to do. They're flying literally almost flying over
Speaker 3: us in circles. But Daniels Pops, Daniel's dad said no,
Speaker 3: that's the easiest thing.
Speaker 1: Probably computer program.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just hit one and they just circle around. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And you know, now that I think back to that
Speaker 1: dunk contest performance, like it wasn't really the drones fault.
Speaker 1: It was like the human operating because they had to
Speaker 1: release the ball and the timing of all yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: all right, well we need a roomba or a drone
Speaker 1: to jump all situations. Let's do one more batch of
Speaker 1: the winners from the weekend.
Speaker 3: Who got we all know Christian and Scooby great halftime act.
Speaker 3: Christian pulls out Scooby, that little dog does all jumping,
Speaker 3: does all these things. He was on the starter's way
Speaker 3: back when every halftime he shows up. He does a great,
Speaker 3: incredible job.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 3: In Minnesota on Friday. You know, after he does the
Speaker 3: handstands off those those sort of risers, I believe they're
Speaker 3: called handstand canes. He took a bit of a quick tumble,
Speaker 3: but he was totally fine. He put the balls on
Speaker 3: the handstand canes. If you're watching with us here on YouTube,
Speaker 3: that is very hard to do. It looked very tough.
Speaker 3: I think he hit himself in a good spot because
Speaker 3: he came out and he said he was fine. You know,
Speaker 3: he brought Scooby on. Scooby was jumping around. He said,
Speaker 3: first off, I'm okay, just a minor scratch bruise. Thankfully,
Speaker 3: I appreciate our extended NBA fan that reached out and
Speaker 3: all the text messages from everyone checking in might make
Speaker 3: no sense, but this only makes me prouder that I
Speaker 3: try to push my limits and not get complacent. Scooby
Speaker 3: is a star without a doubt, but it makes me
Speaker 3: feel good to try to also be a better hand bouncer.
Speaker 3: And even though this show didn't go as plan, it's
Speaker 3: roof that we do as acrobats hand balancers isn't easy.
Speaker 3: What they do there is not easy. I'm grateful that
Speaker 3: this wasn't serious and anxious to get back to it
Speaker 3: much love. He was on Jimmy Fallon the day before that.
Speaker 3: The day before that is while he was also on
Speaker 3: Jimmy Fallon doing that kind of thing where he's up
Speaker 3: doing handstands that's hard to do.
Speaker 1: It's almost like we do need to see this every
Speaker 1: once in a while to remind us, Yeah, like what
Speaker 1: this guy's doing stupid? Like you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: You see it a million times and you're like, you
Speaker 1: don't You start to think like, oh, yeah, it's so easy.
Speaker 1: It's like I could jump up there and balance on
Speaker 1: two balls there go, no big deal. But yeah, then
Speaker 1: you see him take a tough fall and you're like, oh, yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want him to get hurt. But as
Speaker 3: you just said, it's good for his reputation to kind
Speaker 3: of take a tumble because you start talking about it,
Speaker 3: because that gets publicity a little. Also, being on Jimmy
Speaker 3: Fallon gets some publics. I'm sure sure. But yeah, he
Speaker 3: was in Minnesota. There he's showing him love. He was fine.
Speaker 3: I think he took that cane stand in the right spot. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's probably just above the hip. It looked like right,
Speaker 3: so just to.
Speaker 1: Grow into Yeah, it could have been bad.
Speaker 3: It could have been bad. Yeah, but I think his
Speaker 3: abs are strong because he's doing freakinghances dance, So good
Speaker 3: for him.
Speaker 1: I did check in with him. I was one of
Speaker 1: those texts. I was part of the NBA family. I said,
Speaker 1: are you okay? Bro? He roll back, yep, all good.
Speaker 1: Thanks for checking in and I appreciate you and said
Speaker 1: it was a good scratch and a bruise, nothing serious.
Speaker 1: So there you go. From Christian himself. Well maybe Scooby
Speaker 1: wrote this. I don't know. I do have Christian and
Speaker 1: Scooby in my poot.
Speaker 3: Who knows those nails he did?
Speaker 1: Did he did? He continue? I assume the performance.
Speaker 3: Sorry, he continued on the floor with Scooby.
Speaker 4: He definitely did.
Speaker 3: Wow, Scooby was dancing through the hoops a great stuff.
Speaker 4: One more winter unfazed either didn't even.
Speaker 1: Almost a little too unfaced honestly, scoops all right. Final
Speaker 1: winner of the weekend. The is you know, away from
Speaker 1: the NBA floor, but to the basketball floor. Still. It's
Speaker 1: our guy, Jerome Cheng. That's right, Jerome. We told you
Speaker 1: last week was playing in the tm U Sports Versus
Speaker 1: Media charity basketball game up there in Toronto. Jerome was
Speaker 1: on Team Media representing no dunks, and he came through. Guys.
Speaker 1: Not only did the team get the win, Okay, that's important,
Speaker 1: but check the highlights we've got from Jerome here. Okay,
Speaker 1: here's a simple assist to Will Lue to start the game.
Speaker 1: Why not. I want a shot there from Will bag
Speaker 1: bang bang uh. The stats are great, though we're getting replaced.
Speaker 1: Jerome finished with ten points here. He is, yeah, four
Speaker 1: or five from the floor, very efficient. He's gonna go
Speaker 1: two for three from deep here. Here's one of them
Speaker 1: coming up, I believe.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a deep deep three.
Speaker 1: Two assists to two turnovers. We'll live with that, and
Speaker 1: he threw in a steel and yeah, he was just
Speaker 1: a flame thrower out there tasks.
Speaker 3: I love this camera worker.
Speaker 1: I know. Look, I watched a bit of this broadcast.
Speaker 1: This was a you know, a school project by a
Speaker 1: team up there. A huge shout out to cree A
Speaker 1: Mustafa in her team for leading this. I was pretty
Speaker 1: impressed with the production. I was like, Okay, this is
Speaker 1: is awesome.
Speaker 4: The camera work is amazing.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and the broadcast was well done. The graphic package.
Speaker 1: You know, they had sideline reporters and all that. So
Speaker 1: there's an assist that was a big shot. But coming
Speaker 1: up here, there's a big one tie game. There's about
Speaker 1: a minute to go. Jerome hits the go ahead shot
Speaker 1: and uh that was that was a difference maker. Now
Speaker 1: he did say he's an honest man, this Jerome. He said,
Speaker 1: I didn't mean to bank it, but it looked.
Speaker 3: Like it fooled me. I thought he pulled the Dwayne
Speaker 3: Way the Russell Westbrook bank it. But he also pointed
Speaker 3: to his veins. The old lot of that.
Speaker 1: I did a couple of threes to the head, the
Speaker 1: threes of.
Speaker 3: The dome there, well done, well done.
Speaker 1: Congrats to Jerome. Congrats to Team Media and again congrats
Speaker 1: to that entire team up there for the Sport Versus
Speaker 1: Media charity basketball game. Jade, I think you'd be very impressed.
Speaker 1: I think it's on YouTube.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna go watching it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, go back, and you want to go grate it
Speaker 1: for them.
Speaker 3: Granted, granted, just like you talked about the drones weren't
Speaker 3: great ten years ago. Also, our camera work we didn't
Speaker 3: get one of those. We didn't get one of those games.
Speaker 4: Stupid Jays game.
Speaker 3: We did a Jas game. Camera work was great. JD.
Speaker 3: You directed a great game back in two thousand and
Speaker 3: five or whenever it was.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but hold on, these are two different things, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this team was, this was their final. They put practical
Speaker 1: projects three months. Yeah, they worked on it was great,
Speaker 1: awesome stuff. Jerome representing for No Dunks too. We love
Speaker 1: to see it. We gotta take a break when we
Speaker 1: come back. NBA Weekend Losers.
Speaker 3: All right, great stuff.
Speaker 1: Let's uh, let's get to the NBA Weekend Losers. Okay,
Speaker 1: which teams, which performances? Whatever you want is on your
Speaker 1: loser of the Weekend list.
Speaker 3: I'm keeping mine extremely simple here. Again, it's the plays
Speaker 3: that are standing out to me from this past weekend.
Speaker 3: And Clint Capella of the Atlanta Hawks. You got Clint
Speaker 3: capped by Jaylen Brown. He dunked on his head, Clint Cappella.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately he was sort of under the rim. He came
Speaker 3: out like one foot from Jalen Brown for Jalen Brown
Speaker 3: and Jalen Brown. When he has the ball up top,
Speaker 3: he kind of dances a little bit and then when
Speaker 3: he sees an opportunity to go at the rim, he
Speaker 3: goes and he went hard, and he dunked on Clint Capella,
Speaker 3: who just ate it. He had nothing better to do.
Speaker 3: He tried to go up. But the Celtics got one
Speaker 3: done against the Atlanta Hawks. So I've got to call
Speaker 3: Clint Capella the losier. This would have been a very,
Speaker 3: very tough win for the Hawks. This is a back
Speaker 3: to back for them because they did beat the Wizards
Speaker 3: on Saturday night. And I just want to note the
Speaker 3: Celtics here. You know, they do have enough depth to
Speaker 3: go around their injuries. Christophs porzingis he's going to be out,
Speaker 3: and he's out at least a week. Reevaluated in a
Speaker 3: week with that calf strain. I wonder you know how
Speaker 3: long he's going to be out, if he's going to
Speaker 3: be able to come back. We've seen these injuries before
Speaker 3: with him in the playoffs. That Dallas Clippers note that
Speaker 3: that I said earlier, that's what he looked like. And
Speaker 3: Drew Holliday was out in this game. But Delano Benton,
Speaker 3: our former raptor, he was playing hard off the bench.
Speaker 3: Maybe he's not a three point shooter, maybe he don't
Speaker 3: want him to handle the ball all the time, but
Speaker 3: he plays hard on both ends. He goes at the
Speaker 3: ram and he plays hard defensively. And Numiashita also doing
Speaker 3: his things. As the Celtics coaching staff noted after the game,
Speaker 3: they said that dude changed things. They got enough guys
Speaker 3: playing really really hard to get around these injuries, so
Speaker 3: they get a w But Clint cap he got the
Speaker 3: loss unfortunately in this one. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Did you see the crowd reaction to that dunk too?
Speaker 1: Some great shots of fans going bonkers, aybody dropping it
Speaker 1: on their head and just like wow, faces it was
Speaker 1: a big dunk. I'll pile on the Hawks as a
Speaker 1: loser of the weekend too, because on a fast break
Speaker 1: in that Saturday victory, over the Wizards. Jalen Johnson took
Speaker 1: a foul from Kuzma that sent him to the floor
Speaker 1: really hard, and he appeared to hurt his left wrist.
Speaker 1: While he was bracing for contact with the ground. He
Speaker 1: stepped to the free throw line, you know, took his
Speaker 1: two free throw attempts, and then he didn't return. On Sunday, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we found out it was pretty bad. Sham's reported that
Speaker 1: Johnson is expected to miss about four to six weeks. Now.
Speaker 1: The Hawks themselves said he was diagnosed with a left
Speaker 1: distal radius fracture there in his wrists and he will
Speaker 1: be reevaluated in three to four weeks. So Hawks saying
Speaker 1: three to four reevaluation. Sham's is already looking ahead probably
Speaker 1: four to six weeks until he can maybe return. Good news,
Speaker 1: there's no need for surgery. I believe you're gonna have
Speaker 1: to rest this one. But this sucks. This sucks for
Speaker 1: the Hawks because you know, Jalen Big Johnson print the
Speaker 1: T shirts. He was having a breakout season. I mean,
Speaker 1: he was probably on the short lif for Most Improved
Speaker 1: Player candidates. He was averaging fourteen to seven two and
Speaker 1: a half assists, and he was shooting forty two percent
Speaker 1: from deep and he was like a really really you know,
Speaker 1: bright spot for Hawks fans in terms of, like for
Speaker 1: two reasons. One, he's fun as hell to watch because
Speaker 1: he can obviously hit the three a little bit, there
Speaker 1: was some growth to his game. He was a blast
Speaker 1: in transition both ends, either chasing down guys for blocks
Speaker 1: or dunking in transition. And then he also was like
Speaker 1: a bright spot for Hawks fans in terms of like
Speaker 1: the long term success of the team, right, Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: he looks like a building piece, so from that perspective,
Speaker 1: it really sucks too, So he's gonna be out here
Speaker 1: for a little a little bit. I guess maybe this
Speaker 1: means AJ Griffin sort of steps into that role and
Speaker 1: will get a chance. He did, at least on Sunday.
Speaker 1: He didn't look call it that greater play all that well,
Speaker 1: but big Johnson y the shelf.
Speaker 3: AJ Griffin has been sort of in the rotation, sort
Speaker 3: of not at times. But the reason they were fine
Speaker 3: giving up John Collins was because Jalen Johnson was going
Speaker 3: to be in that starting lineup, So they rely on
Speaker 3: him for sure. Now they struggle defensively one hundred percent,
Speaker 3: but they hope that somebody like Jalon Johnson and jon
Speaker 3: Tay Murray step up little bit and Trey Young, who
Speaker 3: red glasses Quinn Snyder says, is ready to go defensively
Speaker 3: and having his best season defensively. I love Quinn Snyder's
Speaker 3: red glasses, like that he's sports those red frames that
Speaker 3: he's he's okay wearing.
Speaker 1: Sally Jesse rafael I said, though, you would have been
Speaker 1: slick if he You know how they do the blue
Speaker 1: court for the un season tournament and I was down
Speaker 1: there not too long ago for one of those games.
Speaker 1: He should go with blue glasses for that should match
Speaker 1: his class frames to the floor, to the colors of
Speaker 1: the team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that'd be next level, that would be nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And that floor is good and we there's some great
Speaker 3: some not so great. That FLOORA is good, the Orlando
Speaker 3: Magic one that we just mentioned down in Disney World.
Speaker 3: The trade should go to very good. The Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 3: court the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: But it does look like it.
Speaker 3: Why do you call it, like? Why is it the Cowboys.
Speaker 1: Because it's the star and the it's the star and
Speaker 1: the colors I mean are very cowboys like, which is bad.
Speaker 1: And it's a great brands great. Look, I like it.
Speaker 3: Somebody drew that star once upon a time, Yes, you
Speaker 3: know they I don't think exactly. I don't know. I
Speaker 3: was in Alan Alan Martin was my my middle school,
Speaker 3: and somebody drew them the star as part of the
Speaker 3: that's part of the logo. Did they see the cowboys
Speaker 3: once upon a time?
Speaker 1: They just saw a star? Maybe?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Alan M. Martin? What the heck was it called?
Speaker 3: That's why I slowly, there's there's a middle.
Speaker 1: Talk about this. We know you're a great Ingordian school.
Speaker 3: We called it grad Yeah, we called it the We
Speaker 3: called it the Magic. And so that's why they got
Speaker 3: the star. Maybe it was from the Orlando Magic. We
Speaker 3: we did just start school right after the Orlando Magic
Speaker 3: came along, did we? Yeah? Basically whatever they came out
Speaker 3: in the eighties. Oh, we started way later.
Speaker 1: Than that, weren't they. I think they were eighty nine.
Speaker 3: And I thought it was a ninety. Anyway, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: Magic have a good court. They play defense, way harder
Speaker 3: than the Atlanta Hawks, way harder than the Atlanta Hawks.
Speaker 3: So Jalen Johnson out, Yes, but AJ Griffin we thought
Speaker 3: he could be part of the rotation. Yeah, it's an
Speaker 3: interesting move with from Quinn Snyder because they're comfortable throwing
Speaker 3: Sadik Bay off the bench in that sort of rotation
Speaker 3: and he struggles defensively a lot of the time. So
Speaker 3: maybe AJ Griffin can jump in and show Quinn I
Speaker 3: can play both ends.
Speaker 1: When I was down at the Fortress last week, some
Speaker 1: Hawks fans were kicking around the idea of maybe they're
Speaker 1: looking to trade AJ Griffin along with a Capella, and
Speaker 1: maybe that's sort of a package to go and make
Speaker 1: something happen because he was sort of out of the rotation,
Speaker 1: wasn't getting a lot of opportunity. But I wonder, first off,
Speaker 1: have no idea if any of that's true, But maybe
Speaker 1: that that game plan has changed now too, that with
Speaker 1: Jalen Johnson unfortunately out for it probably a month at
Speaker 1: the very least there with a pretty rough fall there
Speaker 1: if you saw that one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Clinton Cappella was in a lot of trade rumors
Speaker 3: last year, remember the Dallas Mavericks hoping to get him.
Speaker 3: So I thought Clint Coppella was probably deep in his
Speaker 3: thirties just because it heard them so many times. But
Speaker 3: he's only twenty nine, is he really? I'm a little
Speaker 3: surprised by that. Yeah, very surprised by that. But I wonder,
Speaker 3: like we just said, with the forward position, they went
Speaker 3: from John Collins into the Jalen Johnson role. There have
Speaker 3: been talks that they go from Clint Capella to the
Speaker 3: Ayaka and Conglu role. So that's seeming that just seems
Speaker 3: like it's going to happen at some point.
Speaker 1: It makes too much sense. But then again, we waited
Speaker 1: three years to trade for them to trade John Collins.
Speaker 3: That's a fair point.
Speaker 1: They slow played here. Yeah, all right, I mean weekend
Speaker 1: loser to the Chicago Bulls. Trey's not here to defend
Speaker 1: his team. I don't think he would though. No, no,
Speaker 1: they are deserving loser of the weekend. You know, when
Speaker 1: you're you're in the running for a loser of the weekend.
Speaker 1: Not here on No dunks is when I see this
Speaker 1: tweet from Worldwide Bulls Fans therapy session, let it all out.
Speaker 1: This is a safe place. You never want to see
Speaker 1: that tweet. You never want to see that tweet from
Speaker 1: worldwidewob because that means your team's down bad, and they are.
Speaker 1: The Bulls have now lost four straight, seven of their
Speaker 1: last nine. On Friday Night, in the No Dunks Bowl.
Speaker 1: In the IST game, Og matched his season high with
Speaker 1: twenty six points. Raptors beat the Bulls pretty handedly, won
Speaker 1: twenty one to one to eight, so they eliminated the
Speaker 1: Bulls from contention. Alix Caruso left in the third quarter.
Speaker 1: He didn't return. DeRozan got ejected because he was all
Speaker 1: pissed off that Darko and the Raptors were trying to
Speaker 1: run up the score because Darko thought the point differential
Speaker 1: still mattered to the Raptors in the n season tournament games.
Speaker 1: So it was all bad for the Bulls there on
Speaker 1: Friday night. And then they follow it up on Sunday.
Speaker 1: They start the game red hot. They are hooking the nets.
Speaker 1: I forget what the lead was. It was hilarious. It
Speaker 1: looked like a football score, you know, like three touchdowns
Speaker 1: to a field goal and then the nets in the
Speaker 1: second quarter. They couldn't miss an NBA season best twenty
Speaker 1: five to three pointers in the one eighteen one oh
Speaker 1: nine victory over Chicago. And yeah, now the Bulls are
Speaker 1: five and thirteen, so losses, you know, two losses to
Speaker 1: two teams that the Bulls are always comparing themselves to, right,
Speaker 1: that's like you know, nobody has the Bulls at the
Speaker 1: top of the Eastern Conference, but within that tier of
Speaker 1: the Nets and teams like the Raptors. Yes, they lost
Speaker 1: to both of them, and it looks it looks bad.
Speaker 1: It looks so bad. They're already four games out of
Speaker 1: the number ten seeds, so we're talking play in. They're
Speaker 1: closer to the they're closer to the basement. They're closer
Speaker 1: to the Pistons and the Wizards than they are really
Speaker 1: to play in right now. It's their worst start over
Speaker 1: eighteen games since twenty eighteen nineteen when they finished twenty
Speaker 1: two and sixty. Yeah, the Bulls are back to being bad.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Unfortunately, it would be really weird to see so
Speaker 3: many teams that are at the bottom of standings and
Speaker 3: not close to the play in tournament. That would feel
Speaker 3: weird to me later in season, because the play in
Speaker 3: tournament is there because a lot of teams can get there.
Speaker 3: But like you just said, right now, it's the Hornets, Bulls, Pistons,
Speaker 3: and Wizards nowhere close. So there's four teams in that
Speaker 3: in that conference nowhere close. And then the Jazz Blazers,
Speaker 3: Grizzlies and Spurs and in that one as well. At
Speaker 3: this point. I mean that may change, but that's a
Speaker 3: lot of teams. Four of the fifteen aren't anywhere close
Speaker 3: and eleven of the ten eleven you know, can get
Speaker 3: into the ten spots, I should say. Anyway, the point differential.
Speaker 3: Talking about another tournament, the N Season tournament, point differential
Speaker 3: is very important. A lot of coaches playing for it.
Speaker 3: That's good for the N Season tournament. Just if you
Speaker 3: implement these N Season tournament you want teams playing for it.
Speaker 3: Teams care about the point.
Speaker 1: Differential, they really do. We've seen in a couple of
Speaker 1: games now where teams try and run up the score
Speaker 1: because yeah, it might come down to a tiebreaker. In
Speaker 1: this one, I understand why DeRozan was a little pissed because,
Speaker 1: like I think, the Raptors were officially already eliminated by
Speaker 1: the time that was all happening, so it was pointless.
Speaker 1: But anyway, he just probably wanted off the floor. He
Speaker 1: gave him Asaija Jerry nice hug while he was going
Speaker 1: to the back full hug. Here here's where the bulls
Speaker 1: are at. We all know, Oh, they just have to
Speaker 1: do something. They have to tear this down. They have
Speaker 1: to trade one of these, if not two of these,
Speaker 1: if not three of these big guys, because zach Lavine
Speaker 1: and DeRozan and Vucevic they were never good enough if
Speaker 1: we're just being completely honest, as a big three, and
Speaker 1: now all three have noticeably, you know, dropped off even
Speaker 1: more this year, so they got to do something and
Speaker 1: they're probably just waiting until either December fifteenth or maybe
Speaker 1: even January fifteenth, where you know you can trade for
Speaker 1: more guys or include more guys and like it's it's
Speaker 1: really bad though. I mean, the vibes are brutal, and
Speaker 1: then anytimes Caruso's not out there, they look like a
Speaker 1: real joke. Defensively, rough weekend.
Speaker 3: It took the Bulls one game to have a player's
Speaker 3: meeting at the beginning of the season, that's a bad sign.
Speaker 3: I will say, though, those big three they need certain
Speaker 3: types of players around them. Yeah, when they went and
Speaker 3: got these players, they had Lonzo Ball at the point
Speaker 3: guard spot, and that was perfect. They looked so good
Speaker 3: with the four of them playing. But the Lonzo Ball
Speaker 3: injury after doing so much defensively, he's just involved in
Speaker 3: every freaking possession. He's just going so hard defensively, they
Speaker 3: looked great. The record with Lonzo Ball in these three
Speaker 3: guys is good, but unfortunately lons of Ball can't play,
Speaker 3: so things are very very different.
Speaker 1: And man, I don't know if it's because he's just
Speaker 1: tired of the losing and maybe the positions he's put in,
Speaker 1: or maybe it's age. I don't know, but Vucevich cannot
Speaker 1: hang with anyone right now. I mean the teams exploit them.
Speaker 1: Looks like he's got cement blocks on his feet, like
Speaker 1: he just can't move with anyone, and he's putting the
Speaker 1: team at a disdvantage. But you're right, you need some
Speaker 1: of those other perimeter defensive guys to help out in
Speaker 1: that regard. They have to. We're just waiting for them
Speaker 1: to do something. I actually think they will, but again,
Speaker 1: it might just be until that December fifteenth, or even
Speaker 1: the January fifteenth, which is still you know, it's a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks of potentially losing more games here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Vucevich isn't being paid a ton, so it's
Speaker 3: a good contract to be able to be dealt. Now.
Speaker 3: You know, the standard twenty million starting center guy who
Speaker 3: don't do enough. They overpaid for him in that trade,
Speaker 3: it looked good because of how things were coming together.
Speaker 3: At least they're going for it when they traded for him.
Speaker 3: But now, yeah, a couple of years later, things aren't going.
Speaker 1: I will I will say whatever happens in terms of
Speaker 1: a trade, I don't think it's going to be like
Speaker 1: salvaging this season. It's going to be a young prospect, yeah,
Speaker 1: and draft pick capital, like you know, because I don't
Speaker 1: think there's a big name or a notable name that
Speaker 1: would like save the season. Like I don't think they're
Speaker 1: getting you know, in Austin Reeves, they're not getting an OG.
Speaker 1: Probably they're not getting like even like I'm not even
Speaker 1: talking superstar players here. I'm talking like, you know, second
Speaker 1: tier guys here. But I don't think even that's coming back.
Speaker 1: It has to be draft picks and maybe maybe a
Speaker 1: young star that you can squint and see, oh there's
Speaker 1: potential there. But it could be a long season here, Yes,
Speaker 1: for the bull season.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder if Zach Lavine wants out because this
Speaker 3: team shouldn't be five and thirteen. They should not be
Speaker 3: five and thirteen. They went for it this past offseason
Speaker 3: as a team that could get into the play and tournament.
Speaker 3: They went for it. They got Tory Craig, got Patrick Beverly,
Speaker 3: guys that could help out and provide that support. Javon
Speaker 3: Carter even those are all solid players. But the top
Speaker 3: end right now, as you said, with Vouch not being
Speaker 3: able to do what he does, and Levine and unfortunately
Speaker 3: Derozen who's upset at times, it doesn't look it.
Speaker 1: Billy Donovan said after the second loss there. I've always
Speaker 1: talked about adversity and challenges and difficulties, and to me,
Speaker 1: I think there's one a lot to learn through adversity,
Speaker 1: and two the solution to adversity would not to be
Speaker 1: shut down. If you do do that, that would be
Speaker 1: the worst thing to do. He's like saying, like we're
Speaker 1: shutting down here when we sort of get punched in
Speaker 1: the mouth a little bit. Look, he probably should not
Speaker 1: be the coach of the Chicago Bulls, but I know
Speaker 1: he just had the extension kick in and all that.
Speaker 1: They are chief skates, you know, within that organization when
Speaker 1: it comes to like, okay, this is just dead money here,
Speaker 1: let's smoke a pivot, you know. But he shouldn't be like,
Speaker 1: I don't think that we've seen anything here and he's
Speaker 1: lost this team and it's again, it's just going to
Speaker 1: get here until they shake it up. I would imagine
Speaker 1: what else you got for a loser of the weekend.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna force this one in here. Like we just
Speaker 3: said about the Bulls who kind of faded away, the
Speaker 3: Wizards kind of faded away. I'm gonna blame them and
Speaker 3: also their fans, also their fans because listen there, weekend
Speaker 3: wasn't all that bad. They had a good loss against
Speaker 3: the Bucks on Friday that was a close, close loss.
Speaker 3: Had lost seven straight going in, so they they fought
Speaker 3: against the Bucks, they ended up losing. Then they played
Speaker 3: Atlanta Saturday. This comment from Wizard's guard Landry Shammitt, this
Speaker 3: got me going. He said this about Saturday's loss to
Speaker 3: the Hawks at home in Washington. The energy in the
Speaker 3: building was down. That's when you got to be able
Speaker 3: to create some energy for yourself. We never did that.
Speaker 3: They're two and fourteen. This is early for fans not
Speaker 3: to be cheering or not to have some energy. It's
Speaker 3: almost quarter point nine straight loss there. And it's odd
Speaker 3: because you know they don't have balls talent at the
Speaker 3: top of their their list, but they do have guys.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're paying Jordan Poole a lot of money.
Speaker 3: He is at the top twenty seven mil. They just
Speaker 3: signed Kyle Kuzma twenty five mil. But I like how
Speaker 3: it's a declining contract. It goes down to nineteen at
Speaker 3: the end. But both those guys right now, that's that's
Speaker 3: a lot of money. Uh. And then you extended Danny Avdia,
Speaker 3: who's playing fine. But they just don't have a lot
Speaker 3: of hope at a lot of hope right now other
Speaker 3: than Blao Kolabalis doing some things off off the bench.
Speaker 3: But they just have top end pay right now. They
Speaker 3: are paying guys. They are going up against the Detroit
Speaker 3: Pistons tonight Monday, two of the worst teams in the NBA,
Speaker 3: actually the two worst records in the NBA. Both of
Speaker 3: them at two and fourteen are the worst records. So
Speaker 3: tonight this is a big game with me. Yeah, so,
Speaker 3: and then this is a nut dust Bowl game, nut
Speaker 3: dust game. Yeah, yes, I remember that.
Speaker 1: You're the Pistons, I'm the Wizards. You don't want to
Speaker 1: finish with the worst record overall, or you're eating a
Speaker 1: bunch of nut dust.
Speaker 3: I don't know. You might be looking forward to that,
Speaker 3: to be honest.
Speaker 1: Sure, it depends on what the nuts are.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it depends. Yeah. When I think nut dust, I
Speaker 3: also think seasoning.
Speaker 1: I think some yeah, some rosemaries. Maybe it's gonna be good.
Speaker 1: I think there's gonna be a coughing yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: We might have a no water rule. So it's basically
Speaker 1: gonna be like a weird cinnamon challenge up in here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's a big one for you and me.
Speaker 1: I don't know who wins it. If if you have
Speaker 1: a read on this game, Yards or Pistons, you can
Speaker 1: probably get into the arena for ten bucks, I'm sure.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's bad for Washington. It's embarrassingly bad. I
Speaker 1: saw Kelly Dwyer write in his newsletter this morning that
Speaker 1: there are like twenty good teams right now in the NBA,
Speaker 1: plus the Nets and Raptors. Probably he's trying to decide
Speaker 1: where to put them. But he's got a point, because
Speaker 1: the Bulls and Grizzlies want to win but they don't.
Speaker 1: And then there are six teams that are just inherently
Speaker 1: bad Wizards, Pistons, Hornets, Blazers, Jazz and Spurs. And again
Speaker 1: he's got sort of the next Raptors. It feels like
Speaker 1: he's got them sort of like, are they good? Are
Speaker 1: they really bad? I think they're They're leaning more towards
Speaker 1: good than bad teams that we listed there. But it's
Speaker 1: a good point. But wild that some of those teams
Speaker 1: I said are in that group. I would say it's
Speaker 1: most I'd say, yeah, the Wizards. I don't think anybody
Speaker 1: thought they were gonna be like, oh, they're forty five win,
Speaker 1: But this is really bad. This is bad two and fourteen.
Speaker 1: Same with Detroit too.
Speaker 3: Pool can't find his flow as a number one guy,
Speaker 3: not at all, So that's that's a problem. That's this
Speaker 3: is a very different role for him, and he was
Speaker 3: missing from that last game. I didn't mention that, but
Speaker 3: I didn't particularly care about that. They should be better
Speaker 3: no matter what. And I wanted to know what Landry
Speaker 3: Shammit said, Hey, Washington fans, I want to hear you.
Speaker 3: That was I know it's it's going.
Speaker 1: To blame them even I mean, it's been very bad
Speaker 1: for a couple of seasons now yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, it's even worse to start this season.
Speaker 1: And what are you cheering for? Jordan poole, you know,
Speaker 1: taking a shot with eighteen on the shot clock and
Speaker 1: turning around like it's going in before it even drops.
Speaker 3: And it doesn't put Alexandrovechkin's face on the screen or something.
Speaker 1: Play Capital's games, well, I think his face.
Speaker 3: I think people will like his face. No cheer first,
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's it's tough to find something to
Speaker 3: cheer for. That's true. But they are the good thing
Speaker 3: about the salary floors that you got to pay players.
Speaker 3: And so it is surprising that again, eight teams in
Speaker 3: this league aren't that good because they do have good players,
Speaker 3: because you got to play some players.
Speaker 1: I obviously didn't think it would be this bad, but
Speaker 1: I didn't think the Pistons would be two and fourteen either.
Speaker 1: I was talking up the Pistons after the first week
Speaker 1: and to seem like, oh, this is a scrappy team.
Speaker 1: Watched out they you know, they can't beat anyone right now.
Speaker 1: Somebody has to win tonight.
Speaker 3: That's so who you got? Who you got tonight?
Speaker 1: Wizards?
Speaker 3: Come on, Manzards are.
Speaker 1: Gonna lay the beat down on your Pistons today.
Speaker 3: Can't wait.
Speaker 1: One more emy weekend loser, It's Wemben Yama not really
Speaker 1: him though, whoever was in charge of spelling his name
Speaker 1: on the back of his jersey there on Friday night, Yeah,
Speaker 1: wemn Yama played the entire first quarter with his name
Speaker 1: spelled as Webanyana. We had another end there instead of
Speaker 1: an M right at the end of his name. And
Speaker 1: after the loss, wemen Yama said he didn't even realize
Speaker 1: the misspelling during the game. That he did say it
Speaker 1: was a real shame. Why that made me laugh? This
Speaker 1: is a real shame, was it? Though? He shot three
Speaker 1: for four from the field when he was wearing the
Speaker 1: incorrect spelled jersey because I think they caught it pretty early.
Speaker 1: I think he switched into the new jersey in the
Speaker 1: second quarter. But look, you created some valuable memorabilia here, right.
Speaker 1: Couldn't the Spurs auction this off? I know Sotherby's just
Speaker 1: did his debut jersey from his first game as a rookie.
Speaker 1: How much do you think it went for? What do
Speaker 1: you think of Victor weben yama debut jersey against the
Speaker 1: map recently auctioned off for? And where would you even start?
Speaker 3: How many digits? I'm definitely going five. I'm going five digits.
Speaker 1: You can go up to six six.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that's a lot. I didn't have the guts
Speaker 3: three K.
Speaker 1: Three hundred k more than double seven hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: thousand dollars for that debut jersey there, So what do
Speaker 1: you do? Does this one? Is this one more memorable?
Speaker 3: No? I gotta say listen. I'm a huge wemen Ya'm
Speaker 3: a fan, having been at Summer League seeing that poor
Speaker 3: first game and then see him go skyrock into that
Speaker 3: second game, so I can understand why you'd want to
Speaker 3: pay for it. But a web jersey that's spelled incorrectly.
Speaker 3: I think Greg Papovich would take the mic and tell
Speaker 3: people not to boo at that, don't buy that, don't
Speaker 3: buy that, don't boo Kawhi Leonard.
Speaker 1: God, that happens. It feels like it happened so long ago,
Speaker 1: but we hadn't done a show. Yes, what did what
Speaker 1: did you think of let's you know, before we moved
Speaker 1: to tweet the night? What did you think of Grey
Speaker 1: Popovich taking the mic in San Antonio and telling Spurs
Speaker 1: fans to stop booing Kawhi Leonard, stop it. We're basically
Speaker 1: we're better than this show. Some class.
Speaker 3: I at first said, Wow, I love Pop. I like it.
Speaker 3: I like him just grabbing the mic and being able
Speaker 3: to do that. Not many coaches would just grab a
Speaker 3: mic and be able to do that. At the same time,
Speaker 3: fans can do what they want. They pay a lot
Speaker 3: of money, they can boo Kawhi Leonard, who didn't leave
Speaker 3: all that well, he played really hard. They helped win
Speaker 3: a championship. Obviously he's the finals freaking MVP, but his
Speaker 3: leave was not all that memorable for them. It didn't.
Speaker 3: It soured a lot of people. Yeah, it's fine by me,
Speaker 3: it's fine.
Speaker 1: It just made them boom more too. Yeah, and Pop
Speaker 1: was trying to spin it like you don't poke the bear.
Speaker 1: That's what he kept saying after the game. So he
Speaker 1: was trying to spin it quickly into I'm telling you
Speaker 1: to stop booing because a player of his caliber, the
Speaker 1: more you boo, the worse it's gonna be. That's true,
Speaker 1: that's true, true, But I don't think he was I
Speaker 1: don't think that's what he was actually doing. He first
Speaker 1: took the mic, then he started to realize, like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to spin this. What's what's my move here?
Speaker 1: What's my pr move? But I thought it was it's hilarious,
Speaker 1: it's really funny. Or I know our friend Gourmet Spud
Speaker 1: was firing off the tweets about it, making fun of it.
Speaker 3: I think it's great to see a coach grab a mic.
Speaker 3: We'd never see that.
Speaker 1: Well we have. Uh, Doc Rivers grabbed a mic and
Speaker 1: told Clippers fans back in the day to cheer Dirk
Speaker 1: Novitsky it was his final game. Oh really yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: now you don't. You may not remember it because I
Speaker 1: don't think the PA team did a great job. When
Speaker 1: Doc had the mic, you could sort of like it
Speaker 1: wasn't coming through a crystal clear San Antonio. They knocked
Speaker 1: it out of the park. You could hear Pop perfectly,
Speaker 1: but uh yeah, really weird. Let's hear from you on
Speaker 1: that one. We had to pull up on our you know,
Speaker 1: YouTube community page. Was it a classy move by Pop
Speaker 1: or was it out of pocket? The votes were leaning
Speaker 1: towards classy more than they were out of pocket.
Speaker 3: Did you like Doc when he did? Because I couldn't wait.
Speaker 1: To hear shot one is more. There obviously is two
Speaker 1: completely different scenarios. Here. Doc is saying this is a legend.
Speaker 1: Let's let's show him the respect and you know, Dirk
Speaker 1: was loving it and the fans did, and yeah it
Speaker 1: was cool. This is pop telling his own fan base
Speaker 1: what they should do or shouldn't do. You know, that's
Speaker 1: that's a little much. They want to boom boom and
Speaker 1: they boot him even more so, so it backfired. Maybe
Speaker 1: he knew that, maybe knew it all along. All right,
Speaker 1: those are our winners and losers of the NBA weekend.
Speaker 1: Who do we miss? What do we miss? Which teams
Speaker 1: you want us to talk about? We're here all week,
Speaker 1: so we'll make sure to slip them in. Let us
Speaker 1: know here in the it's the nut dust Bowl game.
Speaker 1: Everybody's excited, everybody's pumped up. Let's get to tweet of.
Speaker 3: The night tweet and wow, so twin the night I.
Speaker 1: Want to make a Thanksgiving themed still as we sort
Speaker 1: of put a button on that the long weekend that
Speaker 1: we had here in the States. So Kevin O'Connor NBA kaos,

Speaker 1: There you go the would you rather with shade and sharp?
Speaker 1: Really loving mac and cheese. He nearly changed when he
Speaker 1: got the stuffing, which I think I like jad you
Speaker 1: said before we went live here that they weren't throwing
Speaker 1: him some great options.
Speaker 4: I'm with him for those. I mean stuffing massed potatoes,
Speaker 4: but that's jello castrole, I know, salad, sweet potato castrole,
Speaker 4: I mean I know, I'm I hate sweet potatoes and
Speaker 4: the picturelation there was marshmallows melted on top.
Speaker 1: Yeah of course, yeah yeah. What do you think about
Speaker 1: Sharp running the running the gauntlet there for mac and cheese?
Speaker 3: I respect him, but salad is good skates, Well, yeah
Speaker 3: you need a salad. You need a salad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we all need a salad, but you're not gonna
Speaker 1: take it over mac and cheese.
Speaker 3: Alright. No, it's just like he gave you fifteenth They
Speaker 3: gave him fifteen options. You kind of have to say yes,
Speaker 3: you kind of feel like you're helping produce and you
Speaker 3: kind of want some variations.
Speaker 1: But by flip flopping a little bit.
Speaker 3: But at the same time, I'm wrong because this.
Speaker 1: Doesn't go Yeah, this doesn't go viral. If he keeps
Speaker 1: like when he gets the stuffing he says stuffing, nobody
Speaker 1: everyone goes Okay, yeah, stuff is great, but him running
Speaker 1: with mac and cheese becomes funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah great. Americans don't even really call it stuffing, though, do.
Speaker 1: They Just I never have understood this dressing versus.
Speaker 3: Stuff because they may have changed it for our Canadian
Speaker 3: friends changing Sharp.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but I mean, so what did you call it? Growing?
Speaker 1: Up stuffing, stuffing, y.
Speaker 3: I don't know what. I didn't know what dressing was always.
Speaker 1: Start one was like in the bird.
Speaker 4: And one because you stuff it.
Speaker 3: In the bird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't think that's what it has to.
Speaker 3: Do with it.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah. I think they were just like different words
Speaker 4: for the same thing growing up. But it was always
Speaker 4: stuffing in my house.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And mac and cheese not a thing for Canadian thanks Giving,
Speaker 4: at least in my house.
Speaker 1: Like totally.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't think we. I don't think we ever had
Speaker 1: it in Canada at the Thanksgiving table in October, but
Speaker 1: definitely here. I had a bunch on Thursday at Trace House.
Speaker 1: It was good. It's really really good. I don't even
Speaker 1: know who made that. Was it Laura? Maybe it was Laura?
Speaker 4: Probably?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's good. What is jello castrole? Sorry? Jake, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I got it? What is that thing? Gross?
Speaker 4: I've never heard of it. I mean, I guess I've
Speaker 4: seen sort of like people showing up with a what
Speaker 4: do you like a jello? But it's what do you
Speaker 4: call it?
Speaker 3: It's in it like a cake, a cake.
Speaker 4: I think you can put ship like fruit into a
Speaker 4: sort of thing. It's like a dessert.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 4: I don't know though, I don't know, or maybe it's
Speaker 4: a cranberry sauce type thing, jello cranberry jello? Is that
Speaker 4: even a thing anyways?
Speaker 1: So the ones that you would have maybe pivoted from
Speaker 1: Mac and Cheese JD were what stuffing.
Speaker 4: Stuffing, mashed potatoes, scall of potatoes. I would yeah, if
Speaker 4: it was scala potatoes versus all of those, it would
Speaker 4: be a scallop that would have been shading all the
Speaker 4: way shad scalp potatoes, scaled potato viral.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, all right, glad we got that tweeted.
