<v Speaker 3>with the podcast and YouTube show. We are releasing this

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:22.560
<v Speaker 3>on Monday. We are recording this on Monday, a bit

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 3>of a recap of Game four of the NBA Finals,

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 3>and we will do a preview of Game five of

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 3>the NBA Finals. Demons is here alongside me. This is

0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 3>a stripped down, shorter show. You will get the full

0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:38.080
<v Speaker 3>thirty five to forty minute show tomorrow that you usually get.

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:40.800
<v Speaker 3>Actually you usually get those on Tuesdays. I don't even

0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 3>know when you're gonna get that one, but we're gonna

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.039
<v Speaker 3>record it tomorrow. Here's what I do know. We're doing

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:47.559
<v Speaker 3>this right now in real time. You've had a couple

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 3>days to process a crushing Celtics defeat. But I know

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 3>you're still confident. I assume we're starting with Steph Curry.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 3>But you let me know where we're going.

0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 4>Yes, Steph Curry played what you would call his best

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 4>game ever in Game four. Yep, they're going going back

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 4>home for Game five. Yes, it's time for you to

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 4>now jump ship. I know, I mean, I know where

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:04.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm staying.

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:06.960
<v Speaker 3>Okay, No, you're staying with the Celtics. I am also

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:08.520
<v Speaker 3>staying with the Celtics. So this is what I want

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.760
<v Speaker 3>to do today. I want to over these next twelve

0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:13.760
<v Speaker 3>to fifteen minutes because you sound a little down. Energy's

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 3>a little low, and I know it's not because you're tired.

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 3>You woke up on time today. Everything's all good, you

0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 3>got a good good night's rest. But you're a little

0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:24.920
<v Speaker 3>you're not quite as confident as you once were. I

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 3>heard you mention that tonight's Game five is a must win.

0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:30.960
<v Speaker 5>It's huge, it's huge.

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it's necessarily a must win for you guys,

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.520
<v Speaker 3>because I do think you could win Game seven in

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:39.560
<v Speaker 3>San Francisco if you need it to. I think you'll

0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 3>win tonight, and we'll discuss why in a moment. But

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 3>the fourth things I want to talk about today, and

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 3>I want to do it in this order. I want

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 3>to start with Steph. Then I want to talk about

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 3>the end of the game, which I think whenever a

0:02:51.040 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 3>game happens on a Friday, there's not usually a lot

0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 3>of analysis on the Monday shows about the actual game.

0:02:57.320 --> 0:03:00.080
<v Speaker 3>It's more look ahead stuff. Then we'll talk Draymond, and

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 3>then we'll talk Tatum in game five. Okay, sounds good

0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 3>on Steph. I called it the best game of his life.

0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 3>I do believe it was the best game of his life.

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.919
<v Speaker 3>There was no other offense coming from any other source

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 3>on the Warriors. Everyone on Boston knew you had to

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 3>stop Steph Curry, and they could not do it through

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.200
<v Speaker 3>three quarters. They couldn't do it at all. Now, there

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.520
<v Speaker 3>was a moment in the fourth quarter. Yeah, when with

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:27.760
<v Speaker 3>four minutes left he saw and scored in the fourth

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 3>quarter where I was like, oh, my god, because he

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:33.320
<v Speaker 3>had only scored six fourth quarter points in the series

0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 3>leading into Game four, was Oh, he's gonna have another

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 3>rough fourth quarter. But then the floodgates opened. He hit

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 3>the huge three, he hit a floater, he had a

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 3>bunch of free throws down the stretch. He ends up

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:47.200
<v Speaker 3>scoring forty three points. So it is the best game

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:51.640
<v Speaker 3>of Steph's career. It also, as is often the case

0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:57.800
<v Speaker 3>with Steph, slightly overstated by the my media cups. And

0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:01.440
<v Speaker 3>here's what I mean. Steph had a forty point double double.

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah in the finals. That is exceptional. It is not

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 3>exceptionally rare. So would you believe that a forty point

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:18.479
<v Speaker 3>double double. Jannis did it three times last year? Three times.

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:23.000
<v Speaker 3>The year before that, Jimmy Butler did it once, Lebron

0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:27.120
<v Speaker 3>did it once in the finals against the Warriors. Just

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:31.720
<v Speaker 3>the Finals against the Warriors, Lebron has done it five times,

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:35.120
<v Speaker 3>so both of these things can be true. It was

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:39.640
<v Speaker 3>the single best game of Steph Curry's career. It was

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:42.240
<v Speaker 3>the best finals game he's ever played, better than the

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.000
<v Speaker 3>forty seven and a loss to Toronto and better than

0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:47.560
<v Speaker 3>the thirty seven in Game five and twenty fifteen against

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:49.960
<v Speaker 3>the Cavs, and when it was two to two, it

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.919
<v Speaker 3>was the best game of Steph's career. And it also

0:04:54.279 --> 0:05:01.839
<v Speaker 3>was maybe the if the best Finals game of the

0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:04.839
<v Speaker 3>last five years. Both of those things can be true,

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 3>right because Giannis is fifty point masterpiece obviously trumps it.

0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 3>I think Lebron's Lebron had won in the in the

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 3>against the Heat or against the Lakers, sorry against the Heat,

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:20.080
<v Speaker 3>and then Jimmy Butler had won against the Lakers. I

0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:24.040
<v Speaker 3>don't think Kawhi had any And then I think Durant.

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 3>The Durant finals games are tough because it didn't feel

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.560
<v Speaker 3>like they were ever in jeopardy. But Durant, particularly in

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 3>twenty seventeen, had some monster games. So that's not throwing shade.

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:37.440
<v Speaker 3>That's being honest.

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:41.360
<v Speaker 5>Every exacting like it's so rare. Well, oh my god, Well.

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 3>It was a great game, and watching it in real time,

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.479
<v Speaker 3>it was a great game, and Steph had to be

0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:49.359
<v Speaker 3>great for their season's over, and he answered the call.

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:52.920
<v Speaker 3>It does not make it one of the greatest games

0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:56.840
<v Speaker 3>we've ever seen. Eighteen guys have had forty point double

0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 3>doubles in the NBA Finals, and I just mentioned three

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 3>times in a six game series just a year ago.

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 3>So that's what's true about Steph for the game. Well,

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 3>it's also true about Steph for the game as I

0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.840
<v Speaker 3>talked about last week. This was on the TV show,

0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:15.080
<v Speaker 3>now on the podcast, but the little preemptive maybe I

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.880
<v Speaker 3>did talk about the podcast, Oh Steph's hurt? Ye, steps

0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 3>Did Steph look hurt to you?

0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:21.160
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.800
<v Speaker 3>Of course no, because you know how we knew he

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:27.160
<v Speaker 3>wasn't hurt because he didn't come out of the game

0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:29.560
<v Speaker 3>when he suffered the injury, and he didn't have an

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.839
<v Speaker 3>MRI the next day. What should concern the Warriors four

0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Game five is and I think this is your take.

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 3>I heard you say to somebody on the street. Demonse

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:41.240
<v Speaker 3>now gets to ask sports questions on the street when

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:44.279
<v Speaker 3>we're walking together. True, and Demonse fired back at a

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 3>guy who was picking the Warriors. Yeah, and what did

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 3>you tell him? Why did you say you didn't think

0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:49.839
<v Speaker 3>they were gonna win two more games?

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 4>Because Curry's got to score forty points above the win Yes,

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 4>I mean like and he's I mean he might have

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:55.400
<v Speaker 4>another one in him, But.

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Can't he have two more? Or can he have one more?

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.039
<v Speaker 3>Can Clay explode for a big game? That will be

0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:06.359
<v Speaker 3>the big question? Mark? Okay, now about the actual end

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:10.480
<v Speaker 3>of the game, because I said this to you while

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 3>we were watching, and then I didn't really hear anybody

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 3>talking about it over the weekend. It wasn't really brought

0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:20.000
<v Speaker 3>up much on my TV show this morning. I don't

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 3>know if the other show's.

0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:21.280
<v Speaker 5>Talking about it.

0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 3>Clay Thompson hit a three to give the Warriors the

0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 3>lead in the fourth quarter, ninety five ninety four, with

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:33.080
<v Speaker 3>about four and a half minutes left. Your Boston Celtics

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 3>did not take another two point shot the rest of

0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 3>the game.

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:41.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I kept trying to win it on one possession.

0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 3>They got totally tilted by losing the lead. And I'll

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 3>tell you because I pulled it up today to mention

0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:53.480
<v Speaker 3>on the TV show. Here was the possessions. Klay Thompson

0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>hits a three to go up ninety five ninety four

0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 3>to four and a half left. The next Celtic possessions

0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 3>are the following. Jalen Brown missed three, Jason Tatum missed three,

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Marcus Smart missed three, Marcus Smart miss three, Al Horford

0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:12.040
<v Speaker 3>missed three. Al Horford then May to three to cut

0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 3>it from one oh three uh, one hundred and ninety

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 3>four to one hundred and ninety seven UH. Then a

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 3>turnover by Jalen Brown, then a Derek White miss three.

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 3>Game over. You guys didn't take a two point shot

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.600
<v Speaker 3>in the final four and a half minutes in a game.

0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:28.760
<v Speaker 3>It's not like you were down twelve. You ended up

0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 3>being down a lot at the end, but you stopped

0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.520
<v Speaker 3>running your offense YEP. And that to me was you

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 3>guys getting tight at the end. And this was when

0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 3>I picked the Warriors before the series. My concern was

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 3>exactly that the close games at the end, are you

0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:46.680
<v Speaker 3>guys gonna get tight the way you did in Game

0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 3>seven against Miami. Now, what you have going for you

0:08:50.920 --> 0:08:54.240
<v Speaker 3>is the Boston Celtics have last seven game eight games

0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:57.240
<v Speaker 3>in these playoffs. They are seven to zero following.

0:08:57.000 --> 0:09:00.160
<v Speaker 5>The league exactly, they exactly.

0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:06.200
<v Speaker 3>It's mid January, Demons. They have lost one time following

0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:09.000
<v Speaker 3>a loss. They've lost back to back games once and

0:09:09.080 --> 0:09:13.200
<v Speaker 3>that one loss four starters didn't play. So they're essentially

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 3>undefeated following a loss over the last four plus months.

0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 3>So that to me is one of the reasons you

0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:23.679
<v Speaker 3>guys should have confidence. Plus, you guys have been better

0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:27.000
<v Speaker 3>on the road than at home these playoffs. You're five

0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:29.559
<v Speaker 3>hundred in unfortunately, I guess, and so I don't think

0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.199
<v Speaker 3>you go into San Francisco thinking you can't win. So

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:36.360
<v Speaker 3>all those things bode well for Game five. None of that, though,

0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.400
<v Speaker 3>will matter if Tatum doesn't play better. We will get

0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 3>to Tatum in a moment, and I want your thoughts

0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 3>on what you're seeing with him. But first we have

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 3>talked about Draymungry. So Draymond's own mother started tweeting about it.

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 3>Can you imagine if my mom had Twitter?

0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 5>I think she might have Twitter, but.

0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 3>Doesn't tweet and doesn't have a following, And can you

0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:01.240
<v Speaker 3>imagine if I was really struggling on the show and

0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 3>my mom tweeted like, never seen him be this bad? Now,

0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:07.559
<v Speaker 3>you know what? Hold up, I'm asking if you can

0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.400
<v Speaker 3>imagine if my mom had Twitter. Your mom does have

0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Twitter and does have a following, and I actually think

0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 3>it's on the board that she could send a tweet

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 3>similar to Draymond's mom.

0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:22.720
<v Speaker 5>I could see a slight, a slight little grill from mom.

0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh slight, yeah something.

0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 3>I think she could roast you bad. I think if

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:31.280
<v Speaker 3>she saw the Dinosaurs take from last week.

0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:33.160
<v Speaker 4>Which is why I actually went out of my way

0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 4>to bring it up to her, because I just wanted

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 4>to probe and see if you know you went and

0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 4>told her, because you know you went.

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:39.840
<v Speaker 5>I think you dropped her off at the shop that

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:43.040
<v Speaker 5>day or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, she she was very sad

0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:43.439
<v Speaker 5>about it.

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:45.160
<v Speaker 3>She was sad about the Dinosaurs takes.

0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 5>As soon as I brought it up, she was like,

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:47.440
<v Speaker 5>oh no.

0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 4>I was like, man, but you know, just I know this,

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:52.280
<v Speaker 4>this is about the Celtics and no.

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead listen quick. If people didn't see the most

0:10:56.920 --> 0:11:01.680
<v Speaker 3>recent podcast before this one, Demanse has a red hot

0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:04.719
<v Speaker 3>take on dinosaurs, So go ahead if people listen to

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:05.560
<v Speaker 3>it or watch it there, But.

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.400
<v Speaker 5>Go ahead if you saw that episode.

0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:08.840
<v Speaker 4>I just want to let you know that if you

0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 4>were to come out to me in the street any

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:14.400
<v Speaker 4>day before then and ask me if I thought dinosaurs existed,

0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 4>there's no chance that I was going to be like, no,

0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.400
<v Speaker 4>no way, dinosaurs. I think that was like a spur

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 4>of the moment type thing. This is not me trying

0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 4>to clear my name.

0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 3>This no, I like cleaning it up.

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 5>It is you're trying.

0:11:27.760 --> 0:11:30.200
<v Speaker 3>I knew it when it happened in real time. I

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:34.400
<v Speaker 3>was like, and I'm not there's gonna sound self congratulatory.

0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:38.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't mean it too, but listen, we can all.

0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 3>I think it's important for people to be humble on

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 3>things that are actually humble about, but also be honest

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:44.319
<v Speaker 3>about things they know they're great at.

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:44.719
<v Speaker 5>Right.

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.559
<v Speaker 3>I know, one of my biggest skills in the world

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:52.640
<v Speaker 3>is like on the fly argument making about things I'd

0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.520
<v Speaker 3>never discussed. You've sat next to me now for like

0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:58.760
<v Speaker 3>four months doing this and watched me do it, and

0:11:58.840 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 3>I think underest to mate it the difficulty of I'm

0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:05.520
<v Speaker 3>going to present an argument that I've never fully thought

0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:08.560
<v Speaker 3>out in my brain and make it sound compelling, and

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:13.440
<v Speaker 3>you ended up you were like Riley coyote runs off

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:16.000
<v Speaker 3>the cliff and then finally looks down as like, oh

0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 3>there's no ground, and you plummet. Like I was watching

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.160
<v Speaker 3>it happen in real time. I was watching your eyes.

0:12:21.559 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 3>And as soon as as soon as you said the

0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:27.079
<v Speaker 3>line of velociraptor wouldn't mess with me, I was like, Okay,

0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:31.280
<v Speaker 3>he's out of here, he's run, he's run out of things,

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:34.240
<v Speaker 3>and now it's just like, I'll fight it. I don't

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.000
<v Speaker 3>care if they live, if they're real or not. I

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.760
<v Speaker 3>will fight one of those sons of bitches. I was like, listen,

0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:41.840
<v Speaker 3>you live and you'll learn. Okay, Now back to Draymond Green.

0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:46.840
<v Speaker 3>My biggest concern for your Celtics, who are now kind

0:12:46.840 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 3>of my adopted Celtics, just because I bet on it,

0:12:51.440 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 3>is that Kerr bench is green more and again. I

0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:59.640
<v Speaker 3>think that is the single best adjustment Steve Kirr can

0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:02.920
<v Speaker 3>make is putting Draymond Green on the bench. And you

0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:07.400
<v Speaker 3>made a really good point right after the game, which

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:14.880
<v Speaker 3>is the Warriors winning saved Dramond ever from blowing up,

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 3>because if they had lost that game in the fourth

0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 3>quarter with Draymond getting benched, he said all the right

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 3>things after the game, and I give him credit for it,

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 3>but I do not know if he would have had

0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:27.559
<v Speaker 3>the discipline to do that if they had lost that game.

0:13:28.080 --> 0:13:30.640
<v Speaker 3>And so I just think the Warriors are in such

0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 3>bad shape with him on the court.

0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 4>I kind of I agree and disagree with the whole

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 4>benching Draymond thing. I like that lineup that they put

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 4>out in the start of the game of Game four.

0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:42.880
<v Speaker 5>Was that Game four.

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:45.360
<v Speaker 3>With Draymond out there with Otto pa.

0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.680
<v Speaker 4>Yes, well, yeah, I guess that means that Draymond isn't

0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:49.320
<v Speaker 4>being benched now that I think about it.

0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 3>No, but they did that to Here's the thing, that

0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:58.360
<v Speaker 3>their best lineup would be Otto Porter in the starting lineup,

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 3>but instead of being he was in place of Kevon Loon,

0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.680
<v Speaker 3>putting him in place of Drake. That's what would worry

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.120
<v Speaker 3>to me if if I were you, That's what would

0:14:08.120 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 3>worry me is if you put the best lineup they

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 3>could yeah, is Steph Clay Wiggins and then Biggs that

0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 3>can do something in Porter and Looney and if you

0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:24.800
<v Speaker 3>want to go small, subbout one of Porter or Looney

0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:27.960
<v Speaker 3>for either Gary Payton for defense or Jordan Poole for offense.

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.920
<v Speaker 3>By the way, I've never been more right about something pool.

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:36.640
<v Speaker 4>I never fails to just fry Jordan Poole every chance

0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:37.080
<v Speaker 4>he gets.

0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:39.720
<v Speaker 3>And and it's, by the way, another little easter egg

0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:42.640
<v Speaker 3>from our an episode last week was I said that

0:14:42.760 --> 0:14:47.560
<v Speaker 3>Jordan Poole reminds me of the year that watching Demond's

0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 3>play basketball was the most frustrating. So now whenever I

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.480
<v Speaker 3>talk bad about Jordan Poole when we're watching, I can

0:14:54.560 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 3>see this looking like, yeah, it's exactly right. It's like

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:03.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm quietly disrespecting you from the past. It's like a

0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:04.480
<v Speaker 3>retroactive insult.

0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:06.320
<v Speaker 4>And then it's like he has no hope in him.

0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.720
<v Speaker 4>He's like he sucks, He's never gonna be good guy.

0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:10.640
<v Speaker 4>It's never been more right about him.

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.720
<v Speaker 5>It's just like geez, right. So I say I remind

0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:15.240
<v Speaker 5>you of me. It's right.

0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.160
<v Speaker 3>I understand why it bothers you. Okay, So Draymond, the

0:15:18.200 --> 0:15:20.280
<v Speaker 3>best adjustment of the worries can make his benching him.

0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't think they're I mean, he's still playing thirty

0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:25.440
<v Speaker 3>five minutes a game. They benched him for like four minutes.

0:15:25.520 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't think they're gonna full on bench him. But

0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:31.920
<v Speaker 3>it will be interesting if they lose tonight and he's

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 3>awful again, what will they do with their season on

0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:38.560
<v Speaker 3>the line? That is to me an interesting question. And

0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:42.000
<v Speaker 3>now we get finally to tonight and to Jason Tate.

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:47.960
<v Speaker 3>So I do not think Tatum has been bad. Tatum

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 3>is twenty two, seven and eight right, he is shooting

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.600
<v Speaker 3>almost fifty percent from three. He has been bad in one,

0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:02.440
<v Speaker 3>well two specific areas. Too many live ball turnovers that

0:16:02.520 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 3>are just like indefensible turnovers, just bat jumping to figure

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:06.240
<v Speaker 3>out the past.

0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:06.400
<v Speaker 5>That.

0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but he has I think it's fourteen turnovers in

0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:13.080
<v Speaker 3>four games, So that's three and a half a game.

0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:15.480
<v Speaker 3>That's not great, but it's not devastating.

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:18.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean, yeah, six and four what right?

0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:21.800
<v Speaker 3>What is devastating is this. He has taken fifty one

0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:24.760
<v Speaker 3>to two point shots. He has made fourteen of them.

0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:27.120
<v Speaker 3>That's less than twenty eight percent.

0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:29.200
<v Speaker 5>And a few of them, man, are just gimme layups

0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 5>like I don't.

0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 3>It's so that's the thing I think people, is the

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.320
<v Speaker 3>moment too big for him kind.

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.600
<v Speaker 4>Of some but it seems like he has spurts where

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 4>it doesn't seem like it's I think I don't.

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:44.640
<v Speaker 5>Think he's scared of the moment.

0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:49.120
<v Speaker 4>I think sometimes he's got a little bit too much anxiety.

0:16:49.320 --> 0:16:51.720
<v Speaker 3>That's exactly what I mean. I don't think he's scared either,

0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 3>But he's twenty four years old. He's on the precipice

0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:57.360
<v Speaker 3>of a championship. He's never been here before, and he's

0:16:57.440 --> 0:17:02.120
<v Speaker 3>a little unsure of himself, and he knows what's on

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.919
<v Speaker 3>the other side of this. If they win the title.

0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:08.399
<v Speaker 3>You're talking. I wouldn't consider him face of the league,

0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 3>but some people would say it. Guys under twenty five

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 3>won a title for historic franchise, First Team All NBA like,

0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 3>he has all that waiting for him, and he's playing

0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:20.360
<v Speaker 3>with the weight of that on him. So I say,

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:23.400
<v Speaker 3>let's say this. I don't think you can win Game

0:17:23.480 --> 0:17:27.160
<v Speaker 3>five in San Francisco without him having a big game.

0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:29.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he has to do what Steph didn't

0:17:29.160 --> 0:17:31.360
<v Speaker 3>score forty, but I think he has to score more

0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:33.879
<v Speaker 3>than twenty five, and for the first time all series.

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:36.520
<v Speaker 3>He has to be efficient. And the other thing he

0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:39.760
<v Speaker 3>needs to remember is you're the best player on that team.

0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:42.880
<v Speaker 3>You're a star in this league. Now you'll get calls.

0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:46.640
<v Speaker 3>He seems a little bit he's like shying away from

0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 3>contact at times, you will get the calls on some

0:17:49.600 --> 0:17:52.800
<v Speaker 3>of these layups if you initiate the contact. So I

0:17:52.920 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 3>like your guys' chances tonight. I think Draymond is likely

0:17:57.560 --> 0:18:00.480
<v Speaker 3>going to be bad for a fifth consecutive game. Tatum

0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:03.399
<v Speaker 3>will bounce back, and either way go ahead.

0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 5>Is Tatum still in Club Superstar?

0:18:05.160 --> 0:18:07.679
<v Speaker 3>It sounds like, oh no, I'm glad you asked that,

0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 3>and then we'll and then we'll rap because we went

0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:13.040
<v Speaker 3>longer than we're supposed to for this quick, little short episode.

0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:15.800
<v Speaker 3>They asked me on the TV show today as well.

0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:20.280
<v Speaker 3>You I hate when people do this, and this used

0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:25.080
<v Speaker 3>to happen to Lebron the you carry a team further

0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:28.120
<v Speaker 3>than it otherwise could go in the playoffs and then

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:31.800
<v Speaker 3>you have a tough final round of the playoffs. This

0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:34.119
<v Speaker 3>only happened Lebron very early in his career because he

0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:37.200
<v Speaker 3>was bad in his first two finals. People are like, oh,

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:40.359
<v Speaker 3>got a question where he's at when you never would

0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:42.960
<v Speaker 3>have questioned it if you would have just lost earlier.

0:18:43.400 --> 0:18:45.960
<v Speaker 3>So in Club Superstar, I have the list right here,

0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:51.960
<v Speaker 3>embid Jah, Giannis, Lebron, Durant, Dame Kawhi, Jokic and CP

0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:56.240
<v Speaker 3>three that is what is that nine? That is nine

0:18:56.240 --> 0:19:01.879
<v Speaker 3>of the twelve guys in Club Superstar. Those guys didn't

0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:05.040
<v Speaker 3>even make the conference finals this year. So you're not

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:08.639
<v Speaker 3>going to kick a guy out who made the NBA finals.

0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:11.640
<v Speaker 3>But so Luca didn't make the finals, you're gonna throw

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.880
<v Speaker 3>him out. So all that's left is Stephen Tatum. Well,

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 3>Tatum's played bad in the finals, he's out. So now

0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Steph's in the club by himself. But Steph missed the

0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:21.520
<v Speaker 3>playoffs the previous two years. Now Club SuperStar's empty. No,

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:26.640
<v Speaker 3>so you don't. You're when you are the guy who

0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:29.960
<v Speaker 3>was the biggest reason the team made the finals that year,

0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:33.720
<v Speaker 3>can't be used against you. And so just like as

0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:37.080
<v Speaker 3>bad as Draymond's been, if he was the defensive player

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:39.520
<v Speaker 3>of the Year this year and was you know, a

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:43.080
<v Speaker 3>decent offensive player, if he had been outstanding all year

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:45.879
<v Speaker 3>and it was having a bad finals, we'd still criticize him.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:50.320
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't crush him, right. Draymond, though, has been mediocre

0:19:50.760 --> 0:19:54.800
<v Speaker 3>the last four months and has been downright awful this postseason.

0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 3>At this point, and here's the thing. For Draymond, ten

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:01.040
<v Speaker 3>points would feel like an explosion. Yeah, if he has

0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:04.399
<v Speaker 3>ten points, eight rebounds, four assists. People will come on

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.800
<v Speaker 3>tomorrow and be like Draymond broke out, Dramon played a

0:20:07.840 --> 0:20:10.480
<v Speaker 3>great game. Clay is the guy I would worry about

0:20:10.480 --> 0:20:13.680
<v Speaker 3>for you guys tonight, play at home in that building

0:20:14.400 --> 0:20:16.400
<v Speaker 3>is the one that would concern me. But I think

0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:18.800
<v Speaker 3>the Celtics win. I think it's three to two and

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.400
<v Speaker 3>we will talk about it no matter who wins tomorrow

0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:23.639
<v Speaker 3>on a full episode of What's Right with Nick Right.

0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:25.520
<v Speaker 5>See you as soon
