00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 3: But yesterday it was like really bad. We don't know,

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,840

Speaker 4: Over the weekend, we celebrated our nineteenth year of podcasting,

23
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 4: starting way back in JD's living room as the Basketball Joones.

24
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 4: So thanks everybody for the kind comments. Over the weekend.

25
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 4: I was looking for some third place finishers from the Olympics,

26
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 4: maybe getting rid of their medals online to get you guys,

27
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 4: because it's bronze for nineteen.

28
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 3: Nineteenth anniversary.

29
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 4: It took me a while to get there, but I

30
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 4: got there. Yeah, lifted up bronze. Anyway, the next year

31
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 4: that'll be the big one.

32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: The twentieth anniversary.

33
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 4: We had some weggie's number twenty one and number twenty

34
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 4: two Sunday and Monday of the long weekend for us

35
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 4: Peyton want blocking Tristan to Silva's layup attempts. He actually

36
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 4: drew blood on to Silva, was gushing there. There might

37
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 4: be some of the ball there. I could see it

38
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: there for a second. And then on Monday on MLK Day,

39
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,079
Speaker 4: that was Miles Bridges sticking the three point Weggie at

40
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 4: the end of the shot clock. It actually sort of

41
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 4: worked in the Hornet's favor, believe it or not, because

42
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 4: you know, it was a prayer likely wasn't going in,

43
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 4: but they had a chance to get it back. Eric

44
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 4: Collins didn't scream weggie though it was weird.

45
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: He was breaking it down.

46
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 5: He was more excited that they got a weggie and

47
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 5: they got a jump ball. Because of it, their center

48
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 5: got to have a jump ball, which they won with

49
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 5: a minute left.

50
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

51
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was kind of good for them. That blood

52
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 5: on the Watson Swatson was pretty cool. I think I've

53
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 5: never seen that before.

54
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: No, no, so blood.

55
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 4: I've never ever seen a wedgie of blood, but it happened.

56
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 4: All right, we got tons to recap here. We'll do

57
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 4: our best to go over the last four days of

58
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 4: NBA action.

59
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: We start with.

60
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 4: Yesterday, Monday, Mlkday in the NBA had games on throughout

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 4: the day. Picked a few games of note to get

62
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 4: you guys takeaways from. Let's start with a really entertaining one.

63
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 4: These two teams have played some good games. But it

64
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 4: was Jared Jackson Junior. It was Desmond Bain leading a

65
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 4: rally as the Grizzlies beat the Wolves one oh eight,

66
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 4: one oh six.

67
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: TK.

68
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 4: We'll start with you here. What surprised you from this comeback? Here?

69
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 3: Not the Grizzlies and the Warrior and the Wolves playing

70
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 3: a close game. These teams are always locked in right now.

71
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 3: Grizzlies were my League Pass Team of the Week last

72
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 3: week just because they keep playing these close, exciting games. Minnesota.

73
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: They played the most clutch games this season, so it

74
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 3: feels like it's always going to go down to the

75
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 3: last couple of possessions here, and it did in this one,

76
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: but only because Minnesota kind of blew this game. They

77
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 3: were up seven with six minutes left, and then the

78
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 3: Grizzlies just decided to get inside every single possession floater,

79
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 3: free throws, layup, a foul on a three pointer, after

80
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: a driving kick, foul on a layup, layup, free throws,

81
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: free throws, jump hook misses, inside. They just put their

82
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 3: head down and started getting into the lane. Jaw was

83
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: doing some of it, hitting some crazy shots, Desmond Bine

84
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: was getting to the rim and finishing, and Jaron Jackson

85
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: Junior was just throwing around whoever was trying to guard

86
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 3: this guy. Pretty impressive performance from him. The Grizzlies are

87
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: just a balanced team. It feels like they can get

88
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: twenty points per game from Bain, Jackson and Jow every

89
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 3: single game, not necessarily thirty five or forty that they need,

90
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: but at times certainly that's the case. But just very

91
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 3: impressive for the Grizzlies. The thing I was most interested

92
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 3: in was the closing lineups from the Timberwolves, because I

93
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 3: feel like Chris Finch is kind of casting about to

94
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 3: figure out ways to actually win these games, because right

95
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 3: now they're twelve and sixteen in clutch games. Minnesota is

96
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 3: that's the most clutch games, like I said, in the league,

97
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 3: but they're twenty second in win percentage, and it feels

98
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 3: like they got to get lucky to win sometimes. In

99
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, they started with nas Reed and Rudyobert

100
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter. Julius Randall has been seeing the

101
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 3: pine a little bit more in these closing minutes. But

102
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 3: at one point nas Reed got very angry at a

103
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 3: foul call, so Chris Finch had to sell them out.

104
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 3: He brings in Julius Randall, and I gotta say the

105
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 3: offense looked better when Randal checked in for nos Reed.

106
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 3: He's getting inside, he's making play. Of course, on the

107
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 3: other end, they're going at Randall every single time, Jaron

108
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 3: Jackson Junior putting him in the basket and finishing Eventually,

109
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert catches a pass in the middle of the lane,

110
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 3: six feet from the hoop. He could have dunked it,

111
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,559
Speaker 3: passed it out and Chris Finch said, no, not you either,

112
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: Das Reid, and then it was like, Okay, we can't

113
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 3: score and we can't play defense. It was just a

114
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 3: disaster class I thought for Minnesota in the stretch run

115
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,239
Speaker 3: here and that's why they're not good enough. Anthony Edwards

116
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: yet to make a game tying or game winning shot

117
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 3: in his career. Another step back in this one. Bricked

118
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 3: it off. That's how it goes.

119
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 4: He fell in love with the three point shot down

120
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 4: the stretch here. He kept searching for it and it

121
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 4: wouldn't fall. But yeah, not great closing minutes here from

122
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 4: the Wolves. Well, Dante Devincenzo, he's out with a toe injury.

123
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: I believe it is. He's missing a couple of games.

124
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 5: Big toe, big injury. Yeah, that's important that he is out.

125
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 5: A couple of weeks ago when they play the Grizzlies,

126
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 5: it was awesome. He was awesome and went down to

127
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,159
Speaker 5: the wire. Now Rob Dillingham is coming in for him.

128
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 5: He had a really good game fifteen points six of eight,

129
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 5: But it all came down to the last few minutes.

130
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,239
Speaker 5: And the Wolves just don't have a clutch time offense.

131
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 5: They're twenty ninth in clutch time offense. They're pretty bad.

132
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 5: Last year when they went into the Playoffkins Dallas Matveris,

133
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 5: then they just they figured it out last year. But

134
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 5: this year it did come down or excuse me, in

135
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 5: this game, it did come down to Anthony Edwards. They're

136
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 5: up nine with a few minutes left halfway through the

137
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 5: fourth quarter, and then he had a couple back to

138
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 5: back threes with between three and four minutes left where

139
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 5: he just said it's one on five. Even grand Hill

140
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 5: on the broadcast said those aren't good shots. And grand

141
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 5: Hill is the nicest man I know. You know when

142
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 5: Greg Hill is saying that you're taking some they're bad shots,

143
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 5: and Nazried was bailing them out. He had fifteen points

144
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter, a great fourth quarter for him.

145
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 5: But literally it just came down to those shots. As

146
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 5: I said, the minutes the Grizzlies, those fresh Grizzly players,

147
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 5: those guys went twelve deep Gigi Jackson's back round, so

148
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 5: they had seven guys off the bench, extremely fresh to

149
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 5: be able to beat Nasried who was going up against

150
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 5: Jaron Jackson Junior, who also had fifteen in the fourth quarter,

151
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 5: and just came down really to the last couple of possessions,

152
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 5: and it came down to when Anthony Edwards grabbed a

153
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 5: defensive board about seven seconds left, They're down three. He

154
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 5: starts pushing it and Chris Finch says, nah, he calls

155
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 5: time out, and then he had a shot to try

156
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 5: and tie it with two guys all over him.

157
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: That didn't work out.

158
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 5: Now, would he have gotten a better shot at sure,

159
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 5: look like Jalen Walls was on him. But when you've

160
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 5: got Anthony Edwards, an extremely athletic guy, being able to

161
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 5: go at you from fifty feet, you're probably.

162
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: Gonna get by it, and he's probably gonna get a

163
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: better shot. Fence scattered a little bit trying to pick

164
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: up guy exactly. I mean.

165
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 5: The scary thing is for the Wolves really comes down

166
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 5: to those last few minutes every single time, and Anthony

167
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 5: Edwards has not been able to figure it out. I mean,

168
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 5: he had a good game through the half, He was

169
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 5: awesome through the first half scoring but only three points

170
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 5: in the second half for him or excuse me the

171
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 5: fourth quarter for him, it just was not right. And

172
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 5: then you see on the other side, like Ja Morant,

173
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 5: this looked like two weeks ago when he had that

174
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 5: winner over Rudy Gobert from the baseline. He did it

175
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 5: again another floater towards the baseline. I mean, he's just awesome,

176
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 5: and he's extremely fresh, and they're fresher. I'm just trying

177
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 5: to find the excuse for why the Wolves clutch him.

178
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 5: Offense is bad.

179
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: He's just bad.

180
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're gonna find out the All Star starters. I

181
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 4: guess later this week on Thursday, those will be announced,

182
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 4: and then I guess the following week we learned the reserves.

183
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 4: Is Jaron Jackson Junior gonna make the All Star team

184
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,119
Speaker 4: here for the grizz last Yeah, and he's averaging twenty

185
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 4: two six and two shooting percentage, Like it's pretty similar

186
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 4: to the year he made it when he won Defensive

187
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 4: Player of the Year.

188
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: You know, the last year he.

189
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 4: Had some pretty good numbers and obviously came up short

190
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 4: in terms of making the roster.

191
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: You think he's sort of almost made.

192
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 4: You made it sound like you think he's almost a

193
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 4: lock to be selected as a reserve for the Grizzlies,

194
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 4: I think so.

195
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 3: I mean, they're a half game out of second place

196
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 3: in the Western Conference and he's been their best player

197
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 3: at the entire season.

198
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: Yep, that's right.

199
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 4: With John Morant missing a bunch of time, des would

200
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 4: be starting signing.

201
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, but I think Triple J has outplayed Joh

202
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: when they both been on the court too. He's been awesome.

203
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 3: He's grown as a player. He's gotten so much stronger.

204
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 3: His handle is better. You're seeing him take the ball

205
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 3: off the glad and push it for court and score inside.

206
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 3: Stuff you didn't really necessarily see from Jared Jackson Junior

207
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 3: early in his career. But they've got three guys who

208
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 3: can go and get their own basket now, and that's

209
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 3: a little bit different for the Grizzlies.

210
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 5: Yeah, you got some Zach Rand flashbacks watching Jared Jackson junior.

211
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: To be able to just plow, I mean.

212
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 5: He never he didn't take the three point shot as

213
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 5: much the last couple of the games that he is

214
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 5: just literally plowing. He's going from the fourth from the

215
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 5: third three point line and just going into it. So

216
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 5: to have a fifteen point fourth quarter like that, zero

217
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 5: three point shot three point makes I mean, he does

218
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 5: look like a different guy. He looks like a different player.

219
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 4: Do you keep saying plowing because we're expecting some snow

220
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 4: platries again here in Atlanta today.

221
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: I don't buy it.

222
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 5: No, no cold, and I don't buy it in Atlanta

223
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 5: doesn't buy plowsy.

224
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: That's a good point. I don't know if your kids

225
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: have no school today? Mine do. No, they do not.

226
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 5: Sorry, they got they got the call late call cold day.

227
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: The cars was.

228
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 3: Yesterday, middle of the day. They're like, sorry, it's going

229
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 3: to be cold again.

230
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 4: It's cool nuts, Lady's tom cold day.

231
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. And I said, because I.

232
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,599
Speaker 3: Got we got some facilities problems down here, Yeah, we do.

233
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

234
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 5: And I'm more from the North, where there's more like

235
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 5: a ten percent chance. Down here it's a three percent chance.

236
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,839
Speaker 5: So I wasn't sure if maybe they centure kids to

237
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 5: school they had the guts. They don't in the North.

238
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: No, No, in the North. All right, let's keep a

239
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: moving here. Crazy comeback from the Pelicans. CJ.

240
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 4: McCollum scored six of his forty five points in overtime

241
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 4: as the Pels orchestrated the largest comeback in franchise history,

242
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 4: overcoming a twenty five point deficit to beat the Jazz

243
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: one twenty three one nineteen. I smile and laugh when

244
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 4: I say Jazz, because man, they are They're not even

245
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 4: being sly about the tech job. They're too in terms

246
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 4: of resting guys who's playing. But anyway, and call him

247
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 4: has scored forty five or more points twice in ten

248
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 4: games here. Remember he had a fifty point game against

249
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 4: the Tzarts back on January third. So just a great

250
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 4: performance from him and a huge comeback. I mean, you

251
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 4: don't want to be down twenty five to the Jazz,

252
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 4: but if you are, come back and get the victory

253
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 4: in OT. I don't know what your takeaways are here

254
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 4: to kid.

255
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 3: This was not an exciting comeback as a twenty five

256
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 3: to three run and no offense to either of these teams.

257
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 3: But I didn't watch this live, so I was like, okay,

258
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: I'll catch up on this run. Yeah, and I was

259
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 3: treated to fricking Carlo Mattkovich versus Drew U Banks on

260
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 3: MLK Day. It's like disrespectful, But yeah, what do you

261
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 3: find the three run over the first and second quarter?

262
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 3: Or when was this? I don't even remember? Third quarter? Yeah, yeah,

263
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 3: third quarter for for the Pelicans, they didn't barely shoot

264
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 3: fifty percent during their run. They went eight for fifteen

265
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 3: from the field, whereas the Jazz went one for eleven

266
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 3: and looked like they could not possibly get a good shot.

267
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 3: Isaiah Collier, I think, had a layup three turnovers during

268
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 3: that stretch as well for the Jazz. My big takeaway

269
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: from this one was this was a good tank loss

270
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 3: for the Utah Jazz. New Orleans has won four straight games.

271
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 3: Watch out, Yeah, Pelicans are hot. They're up to twelve wins,

272
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 3: which is good for the Jazz because they've lost six

273
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 3: at their last seven. Their one win was in overtime.

274
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,599
Speaker 3: They've only got ten wins, which is tied with the

275
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 3: Raptors for second worse in the NBA right now. And

276
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: the Jazz really need a hit. They really need somebody

277
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 3: because this is year three of a rebuild for them

278
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 3: and they've got nobody. They've got nobody who's a star

279
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 3: for this team. They've got guys who look like they'll

280
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 3: be solid role players like Filipowski looks like he could

281
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 3: be a fifth starter or a good bench big. Same

282
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 3: with Keyante George, same with Isaiah Kyllier. They got some

283
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 3: nice sixth and seventh men, But they need somebody who's

284
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 3: gonna be a marquee name. I mean, I'm not necessarily

285
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: putting Cooper flag there. Obviously no team would be happier

286
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 3: to get Cooper Flagg than the Utah Jazz. But they

287
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 3: need something. They need some sort of a hit because

288
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 3: they're not fun to watch. They're not good on either

289
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 3: side of the ball, and they have no exciting players.

290
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 3: So good for them to figure out a way to

291
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: lose this game, an important loss in the stands.

292
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: Somehow they lost this game despite rebounding New Orleans sixty

293
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: three to forty five. They had second chance points and

294
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 4: the outscored the Pelicans by twenty.

295
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: In the paint.

296
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 4: And they still lose this game. Yeah, I mean they

297
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 4: want to, but they pretty impressive.

298
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 5: They play for Will Hardy, that is for sure. They're up, yeah,

299
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 5: twenty points in the first half, which is pretty impressive.

300
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 5: When they sit Larry Markinen and they sit calling Sexton

301
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 5: for Rest. Yeah, I saw, I saw the injury port

302
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 5: and I saw calling sexont Rest. I checked the schedule.

303
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 5: When's the last game they played? They had two days

304
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 5: off coming into this game.

305
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 4: They have to be fine, right, No, they didn't play

306
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 4: until like last Friday, was that right?

307
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, it sat the weekend off and he sat for Rest.

308
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 5: It doesn't really make sense. But when they the NBA

309
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 5: was cracking down on this, you know, mirror years ago

310
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 5: when they were looking to sign a new TV deal.

311
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 5: They got that TV deal And this is just flying

312
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 5: under the radar because it's the Utah Jazz. But it

313
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 5: should not. It really shouldn't. I mean they are tanking.

314
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 5: They play extremely hard for will Hardy, there is no

315
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 5: doubt about that. But yeah, without a Mark In, without

316
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 5: a calling Sexton, without a John Collins, how are they

317
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 5: going to win?

318
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 4: And no Zion Williamson for the Pelicans. You know, he

319
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,599
Speaker 4: had recently return from the left hamstring injury, but he

320
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 4: couldn't play on Monday because of an illness, which I

321
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 4: think someone else had an illness too on the team.

322
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 4: So it's sort of going around.

323
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's allowed to go around. Yeah, he's going around,

324
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: that's for sure.

325
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: Well, I mean I guess I bring that up because

326
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 4: why wouldn't you just say that for Sexton? Yeah, just

327
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 4: say give me a cough. Oh that's not bad, just

328
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 4: rest exactly. They don't even care to hide it. They're

329
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 4: like very weird.

330
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: Also, CJ McCollum.

331
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 4: After that big game, he gave me one of my

332
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 4: favorite quotes from sports right now. I've heard it like

333
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 4: more times in the past. I feel two months and

334
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 4: I heard him my entire life. Sometimes it's not x's

335
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: and o's, it's Jimmy's and jokes. I keep hearing this

336
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: all the time now. I swear I went like forty

337
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 4: plus years not hearing it all that often.

338
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: But it's having a moment right now. You know, don't

339
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: worry about the x's and o's. It's the jimmy's and Joe's.

340
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 3: Jimmy and Joe are both rest No, I'm sorry, that's Johnny.

341
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: Right right right, all right.

342
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 4: Next game here, Kate Cunningham scored thirty two to lead

343
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 4: the Pistons over the Rockets one oh seven ninety six

344
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 4: quality win here from Detroit. Kate took over in the

345
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 4: third quarter at nineteen of his thirty two. If you

346
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 4: were convinced he's going to make the All Star Game,

347
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 4: I think this is the one that like stamped it

348
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 4: like he'll be selected.

349
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: They have a good record, He's been pretty dominant.

350
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 4: Hit a lot of turnovers, there's a lot of turnovers

351
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 4: in this game, many, but he did look very comfortable

352
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 4: against really good defenders in Brooks Thompson that were on

353
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 4: him and he was still getting space and just caught

354
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 4: fire in the third.

355
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, somehow the Pistons still win games even though they

356
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 5: turned it over a ton. A great bounce back game,

357
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 5: I thought from Jalen Durn watched him in the previous

358
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 5: game against the Phoenix Suns. He just looked absent in

359
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 5: that game and a huge one from this one. Sixteen points,

360
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 5: fourteen rounds, four steals, two blocks. He was playing defense,

361
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 5: unlike that Phoenix Suns game where Nick Richards, the new

362
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 5: Phoenix Sun was get not all over him. And just

363
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 5: to just to note, just to jump over quickly to

364
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 5: Nick Ridgards first start with the Phoenix Suns. He they

365
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 5: just got him from Charlotte. He made his first start

366
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 5: on Sunday or excuse me, it feels like a Sunday

367
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 5: on MLK Day against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was rough

368
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 5: in his first start in guarding in space. Guys were

369
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 5: just going at him, you know, whether it was Darius

370
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 5: Garland or Donovan Mitchell, and he just looked like he

371
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 5: was backpedaling the entire time. He didn't look like he

372
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 5: was seven feet from my TV. He looked teeny tiny,

373
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 5: like he couldn't block shots. There was no possible way.

374
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 5: So guards were just finishing over and over and over

375
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 5: against them. I don't know what the Phoenix Suns do

376
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 5: here as we get to two weeks from the trade deadline,

377
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 5: but it's it's dire. Kevin Durant after the game after

378
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 5: playing the Cleveland Cavaliers, he said, you know, it's kind

379
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 5: of hard to play against a zone defense. We don't

380
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 5: even have a zone package.

381
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: Okay, just playbook.

382
00:16:55,720 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, we don't have any here. Yeah, he's calling out

383
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 5: Mike Buondozer. I mean, would be shocking to see the

384
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 5: Phoenix Suns fire two coaches back to back years at something.

385
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: They fired Frank Vogel.

386
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 5: Why wouldn't they fire by Buonholzer, Because because they don't

387
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 5: have an answer via trade, Like it sure doesn't seem

388
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 5: that way, so they got to do something right. This

389
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 5: Bradley Beal talk is happening right now. It is possible

390
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 5: I suppose that he waves his no trade clause. Fred

391
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 5: Katz with an article on the Athletic about that beal.

392
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 5: According to sources, what be okay.

393
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: With waving that no trade clause? Tbds? Like, I want

394
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: to get out of here.

395
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 4: We don't know what to do against the zone.

396
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 3: We don't have it. We don't have the zone zone package.

397
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,959
Speaker 5: You said the zone package. It's like that sounds like

398
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 5: you watch football or something. I don't have the zone

399
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 5: package on TV.

400
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, like what red zone is.

401
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: But I guess a lot a lot of teams don't

402
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: have zone So maybe it's okay for I know how

403
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: to beat a zone. We learned that in high school.

404
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: I thank Kevin d anymore. Well, I don't, Well they stay,

405
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: we don't got a package anyway. Nick Richards was good

406
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: the game before, but in this one.

407
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 4: But let's circle back here to the Pistons. I do

408
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 4: want to get your take on Caid there TK who

409
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 4: filled up the box score again, maybe too much when

410
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 4: you got to kill the turnovers ten turnovers section there,

411
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 4: but otherwise I fill up the rest of it as well.

412
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 3: Ten turnovers is too many. I'll start by saying that

413
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 3: twelve makes ten turnovers. It adds up to a decent game.

414
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: But it's just because Kate is a little over text

415
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 3: from a ball handling standpoint, which is why I thought

416
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 3: Marcus Sasser actually gave him a good minute in the

417
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 3: fourth quarter. He hit a couple of big shots in

418
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 3: this one. But yeah, you mentioned it. Ten turnovers for kid,

419
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 3: twenty three total for the Detroit Pistons, but they also

420
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 3: forced seventeen out of Houston, and the defense was pretty

421
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 3: solid all around for Detroit. Houston shot thirty nine percent

422
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 3: from the field, twenty eight from three, and sixty nine

423
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 3: percent at the free throw line. That's not nice, not nice,

424
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 3: not nice. At the free throw line. You gotta be

425
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 3: over eighty easily. But the offense was pretty bad, I

426
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 3: thought for Houston, like Vambly couldn't really get going, Jalen

427
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 3: Green inefficient, scheng Goon was just kind of out of it.

428
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 3: Maybe it's because Duran was playing so well, but Detroit

429
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 3: did the best offensively because they score twenty eight fast

430
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 3: break points, and it looked like it was a commitment

431
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 3: to run every single chance they got because they know

432
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 3: if we set up in a half court scenario that

433
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,479
Speaker 3: gives Houston an advantage. And obviously they were forcing their

434
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 3: turnovers and they were playing good defense as well, So

435
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 3: good job by Detroit and Caid to just get out

436
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 3: and run on the Houston Rockets, like the Rockets are

437
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: a super athletic team and they look slower. Yes, a

438
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 3: good stuff from the Detroit pitt Yeah.

439
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 4: I think that's an important note about those non cad

440
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 4: minutes because they have been rough since Jade and Ivy

441
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 4: went down with the fractured fibula. I guess he had

442
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 4: They don't really have a traditional point guard off the

443
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 4: bench to take those minutes. But you know, when Houston

444
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 4: had cut that lead to like something like five there

445
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: into the fourth a couple of minutes into the fourth quarter,

446
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 4: Marcus Sasser, he was good. He had Jumper eat a three.

447
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,680
Speaker 4: They did play great defense, they went on a little

448
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 4: run and that was enough to take over the game.

449
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 4: I thought that was really really good from him. But

450
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 4: cade Man, go watch the third quarter highlights. He was

451
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 4: in the zone. I don't think any one of his

452
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 4: shots hit the rim, besides the dunk that he threw

453
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 4: down after like sort of stumbling through, you know, splitting

454
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 4: through two guys and then throwing it down. Every shot

455
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 4: every three, every jumper was pure, very very pretty, and

456
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 4: he will be an All Star. Final Game of note

457
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 4: here from MLK Day. Celtics crushed the Warriors game their

458
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 4: worst home loss in forty years, built a double digit

459
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 4: lead early, put the game away in the third quarter

460
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,479
Speaker 4: when they outscored him forty three to twenty four. Just

461
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:26,199
Speaker 4: a spank job here, pass on national television. You know

462
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 4: this was the last game I guess on TNT on Mlkday.

463
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 4: And embarrassing here from the Warriors there without a lot

464
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 4: of guys, no Draymond Green, no Kaminga, no Pajemski, no

465
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 4: Kyle Anderson. But to get crushed by that many points

466
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 4: during this very bad stretch, it's not good.

467
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a great comeback when we'll get to the

468
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 5: Celtics weekend and how it started poorly, and actually Joe

469
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 5: Mozulla was happy that it looked poorly. Anyways, we'll get

470
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 5: to how that turned. But Draymond Green out in this game.

471
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 5: He'll miss this next coming week with games against Kings,

472
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 5: Bulls and Lakers. And I started to mention that because

473
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 5: we got two weeks till the trade deadline, and Steph

474
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 5: was in this place where he said, this is a

475
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 5: make or break part of the schedule and it's going

476
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 5: to determine what we do at the trade deadline, And

477
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 5: he said, we've had to run down the second half

478
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 5: of the schedule before it can wear you out. And

479
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 5: I say, Dramont Green's going to be out these next

480
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 5: few weeks, Kuming is going to be out even longer.

481
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 5: But Jemski's out, Kyle Anderson is out, and Steph looked

482
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 5: sad after the game. You know, to lose by that many,

483
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 5: to lose by forty, he said, quote, A big part

484
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 5: of our season has been when we can't score, we

485
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 5: lose spirit, we lose life, we lose competitiveness. You know,

486
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 5: we've said he's called on the front office to make

487
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 5: a trade. Then he comes back and he literally says,

488
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 5: you know, I care about this team's future. We're not

489
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 5: going to trade a bunch of players for a two

490
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 5: month attempt. And then now we're here two weeks before

491
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 5: the trade deadline and things look extremely bad. I don't

492
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 5: see how they're going to turn it out with Kum out,

493
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 5: Draymond Green and so many guys at the offense, as

494
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 5: Steph mentioned.

495
00:21:57,960 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: And ain't going to turn around.

496
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 5: I feel that it's hard to even me, the positive one,

497
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 5: can't see that happening.

498
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, they went seven and a half minutes in the

499
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 3: first half without making a shot, And when Curry's on

500
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 3: the bench, you look at the team, You're like, this

501
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 3: is a tanking team. Wiggins, Shrewder, Trace Jackson, Davis, Gee Santos,

502
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: and Lindy Waters. That's like an actual lineup that was

503
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 3: playing for this team that ain't strengthen numbers half. It

504
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 3: was in the third quarter. I think Brian Anderson said

505
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 3: they're ready to turn out the lights here midway through

506
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 3: the third quar So what the Warriors are just playing

507
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 3: out the string. I mean, they've passed on trading for everybody,

508
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 3: and at this point Steph Curry and Draymond Green are

509
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 3: basically saying it ain't worth it. Probably right, Like, what's

510
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 3: this team gonna do? Make it back into the play

511
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 3: in tournament? Losing the first round of the playoffs, that's

512
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 3: what's gonna happen. That's like, that feels like the ceiling

513
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 3: right now for the Warrior.

514
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 4: Season, right well, I mean, you'd have to do something drastic.

515
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: It has to be a big name in here, is

516
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: it Jimmy Butler? Is it another person not thinking of I.

517
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 4: Mean, and then you cannot even maybe you're not even

518
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 4: convince that does anything, Like you're.

519
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 3: Saf that's what they're saying, but like we think so bad,

520
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 3: we're not even going to make a trade. That seems

521
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 3: so self defeating to me.

522
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 4: Doesn't it feel like another lifetime ago that the Warriors

523
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 4: went into Boston and beat them and we're like seven

524
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 4: and one and they were right and high and we're like, oh, yeah,

525
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 4: they're contenders, they're back in the mix. It was two

526
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 4: and a half months ago that happened near the you know,

527
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 4: in early November, and then they then they continue and

528
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 4: got to twelve and three, and since then it's been

529
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 4: all downhill. It's a brutal record and yeah, now it's like, oh,

530
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 4: I need help. Maybe it doesn't even matter if we

531
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 4: get help. It's sad to see, like, who knows how

532
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 4: many years he has left, but this is like just

533
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 4: you know, the end of the string here for Steph

534
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 4: Curry's career.

535
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 3: This is sad.

536
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 4: It's just sad to see. No one wants to see it.

537
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:50,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, especially with Draymond Green, that string has been pulled

538
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 5: to its end. And that feels like this is the year,

539
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 5: if it was any year, that they'd go for it.

540
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 5: But I think Steph has come to the realization that

541
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 5: it was a good start. But if you look at

542
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 5: that offense, it ain't coming back. And it's like that

543
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 5: the Phoenix Suns who started nine and two I ain't

544
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 5: coming back either, unfortunately with the with the Warriors. And

545
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 5: then you add these injuries. Trying to think Kuminga, who

546
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 5: they were supposed to be putting, you know, into that

547
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 5: sort of second role to show his trade value, he's hurt.

548
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 5: I mean, they have a lot of injuries. And I

549
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 5: mentioned Jermond Green because their defense ain't there well, and

550
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 5: now their offense ain't there, so it's it ain't working.

551
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 4: We had another Warriors player pulling string. I just realized

552
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 4: Gary Payton the second was.

553
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: Pulling Jordan Poole's I saw that. Yeah, I was gonna say,

554
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: is have gotten for that?

555
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 3: No?

556
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 4: I don't think so he did it so playfully with

557
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 4: his old teammates.

558
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 3: Oh you're saying j R. Smith was malicious?

559
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 1: I guess so. I guess. So. Yeah, wasn't that the

560
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 1: one that got Leo mad? How dangerous? So upset?

561
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 3: It was so upset.

562
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: So we'll see.

563
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 4: Here if the Warriors have any moved to make you

564
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 4: said two weeks until the trade deadline.

565
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I'm yeah rolling at sixteen days close enough.

566
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 4: We're also getting close to All Star weekend and we

567
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 4: had some news over the weekend. Two rookies, Stephan Castle

568
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 4: of the San Antonio Spurs and Matus Buzzellis of the Bulls,

569
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,400
Speaker 4: have committed to participate in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest

570
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 4: at NBA two thousand and five. Five excuse me, All

571
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 4: Star weekend here in the Bay. So uh, TK got

572
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 4: one of your Bulls in this for the first time

573
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 4: since Tyrus Thomas.

574
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 3: That's right, that right, that's right, the Tyrus Thomas.

575
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:34,399
Speaker 1: Wow, that's O seven.

576
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 4: That's been ay and even longer for the Spurs.

577
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: I did read first Spurs player to participate.

578
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 4: In the Dunk Contest since Greg Cadillac Anderson in nineteen

579
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 4: eighty eight.

580
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 3: I was racking my brains down to think of what

581
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 3: the Spur you were gonna possibly say?

582
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 4: You would have never got to Greg Cadillac Anderson because

583
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 4: I did not either.

584
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 1: I saw that.

585
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 4: So anyway, Castle and Bozellis gets it started. There'll be

586
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: in theory two more announced.

587
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: But what do you think?

588
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 3: Hey? Sure cool, I'm excited to see bozellis. He's got

589
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 3: a trade Murphy's body type, tall, skinny. He can jump

590
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 3: pretty high. He always does. I'm gonna be dribbling it

591
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 3: in my right hand, go between my legs. It bounces

592
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 3: up on the right side through the legs for a windmill.

593
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 3: That's one of his dunks. They'll definitely do it. Maybe

594
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 3: it'll look cool. Castle he's got a low key personality,

595
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 3: but the guy can jump. Seems like a fiery competitor

596
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 3: when he gets fired up, So I don't know, he'll

597
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 3: probably be good. They're young, they can jump.

598
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

599
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 5: I'm excited for Stefan Castle because I think he will

600
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 5: look cool. I remember I was in bed watching Spurs Bucks.

601
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: January eighth, Well I guess it was technically January ninth

602
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: because it was four am.

603
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 5: Stiff On Castle threw one down on Brooke and I

604
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 5: shook the bed. Danielle did not move, thankfully.

605
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: All good.

606
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 5: He isn't the most athletic jumper of everybody in the league.

607
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: I will say that about him, you know.

608
00:26:54,920 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 5: Let's so, I'm just trying to bring everybody's expectations just

609
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 5: to I mean, I watched every single dunk of his

610
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 5: season thus far, that's what Twitter slash x is good for.

611
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 5: People have put those together? Have there been anything worthy

612
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,280
Speaker 5: of a nine point five in a dunk contest?

613
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. Against Miller wasn't all that amazing. But yeah,

614
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: he's six X.

615
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 5: He will look cool to twist, his hair will look cool, uh,

616
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 5: you know, splashing around. I think Bozells may look cool

617
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 5: as well.

618
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 1: There we go.

619
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 5: We got some cool looking guys. Yeah, I'm ready to

620
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 5: lower the expectations.

621
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: We got guys who.

622
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 3: Quite low.

623
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, keep lowering them.

624
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 3: Are we bringing back Mac McClung.

625
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: Wow? We saved the last two, really saved saved.

626
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 3: One of them. He gave you something exactly unbeaten, not

627
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 3: just they kept bringing him back.

628
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: Wow? Are we going to bring him back? Yeah? Yeah?

629
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 4: I mean okay, let me ask you and everyone here

630
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 4: on the stream team right now, all the podcast listeners,

631
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,479
Speaker 4: who would you ideally like to see added to this

632
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 4: roster along with Castle and Bozellis any names come to

633
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 4: mind that you think.

634
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 1: Could give us some moop?

635
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 3: Aman Thompson Okay, okay, I think he's maybe the best

636
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 3: athlete that we got going. And who's another realistic somebody

637
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 3: who could join Shaden sharp.

638
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you would, if you would do it, yeah yeah.

639
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 4: I mean he can fly. I think he'd be really good.

640
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 5: Yeahah, he's been around for a while already. It's not

641
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 5: a while, but it's like, yeah, yeah, it has to

642
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 5: be so. I think Ron Holland would be good from

643
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,680
Speaker 5: the Detroit Pistons. I know we're all lowering expectations. We

644
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 5: see John Morant make freaking art dunking, why doesn't he join?

645
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 5: That's the one that people will.

646
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: Say, but it ain't gonna happen. And what about Zion?

647
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 4: Yeah that would be good, Anthony Edwards, John Morant, Sure, yeah,

648
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 4: those would be some star names. Let's hear from who

649
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 4: who do you want to see in this? Are you

650
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 4: hyped with Castle and Bouzillis getting that's going?

651
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just thinking what Trey mentioned about mac mcclonk.

652
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 5: He kind of deserves to go back in and on

653
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 5: one hand, on the second, he's a G League player

654
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 5: and the expectations will be even lower the bar the

655
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 5: expectations of a guy coming back from the G I

656
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 5: know he was good, but you want NBA players and

657
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 5: think you'll go ahead, How what else is he going

658
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 5: to pull from the bat.

659
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 1: That's what I was going to say.

660
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 4: I would be a little concern of, like, he's an

661
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 4: incredible dunker, he did put on a show for the

662
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 4: most of his two years in it, but like, what

663
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 4: else does he have left?

664
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: And that that would concern me a little bit.

665
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 4: But then again, I mean, let Nate Robinson went in

666
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 4: this a lot of times, one and three times in

667
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 4: a row.

668
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: There's a lot of, you know, similar.

669
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 4: Looking dunks that looked cool because of his height, but

670
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 4: maybe it got a little boring by the end.

671
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 1: All right, well, let's hear from you guys. Who would

672
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: you like to see in it? Okay, let's do a

673
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: sort of a quick sort of.

674
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 4: It will be some No, I won't be quick, that's

675
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 4: a lie, but an NBA weekend recap.

676
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: But we'll work our way backwards.

677
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 4: So we'll give you a few things from each day

678
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 4: and you guys can touch on whatever you want. So

679
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 4: Sunday we had the CLI winning the Battle of La

680
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: Norman Powell was great, Zubats twenty one and nineteen. Clips

681
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 4: defeated Lebron and co. Won sixteen one oh two. The

682
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 4: first Lakers visit to the indo It Dome. That's right

683
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 4: in their own place. You know, it used to be roomies.

684
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 4: Then they moved out, got a new place, finally had

685
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 4: a party. Come look at this party.

686
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: It's amazing.

687
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 4: Kawhi played, I guess a season high twenty four minutes,

688
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 4: so that was a note. We had James Harden within

689
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 4: that game, pass passing Oscar Robertson for number fourteen on

690
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 4: the all times scoring list. The Beard, with twenty one

691
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 4: points in the game again jumped Oscar Robertson. He might

692
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 4: pass the Keem Elijah Wan probably will by season's end.

693
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 4: And then OKCS Mark Dagnell earned his first All Star

694
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 4: head coaching nod after the Thunder clinched the best record

695
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 4: in the West through games up to February second there

696
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 4: nobody can catch them improving to thirty five and seven as.

697
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 1: They beat the nets.

698
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 4: And we learned that an assistant coach from the Thunder

699
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 4: staff will head coach one of the other All Star teams.

700
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 4: It'll be Dagnaught and then somebody from the assistant coaching

701
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 4: staff of the Thunder, and then for the East, I'm

702
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,719
Speaker 4: sure it's going to Kenny Atkinson and also somebody from

703
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 4: the cast. But anyway, of those things from Sunday or

704
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 4: maybe something I miss What do you want to touch?

705
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 5: Just quickly on dagnat, I guess he wasn't in first

706
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 5: long enough. Last year they were fifty seven to twenty five,

707
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 5: number one in the West. But at the announced.

708
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then who did it?

709
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: Who the heck? Kind of better?

710
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 4: Wasn't Malone?

711
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: Was it no Timberwolves? Oh? Was it Finch?

712
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 4: I don't know, but it wasn't him because this is

713
00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 4: his first All Star head coaching. Congratulations, Congratulations, we're gonna

714
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 4: see him squinting.

715
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 3: That's so cool in the.

716
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 4: Bay, which I can't wait for arms cross and a

717
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 4: squint during.

718
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 3: An All Star coach? Is that here?

719
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: That is Finch? I see a picture. I don't see a.

720
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 3: Name Doc Rivers, Chris there.

721
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: I guess.

722
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 5: I guess it was just it came on late in

723
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 5: the season, so they weren't first earlier.

724
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 1: The wall is cool.

725
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 5: I want to say that, okay, because Austins noticed that,

726
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 5: specifically Austin Reeves going into the into it Dome for

727
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 5: the first time, we know the wall. It's those fifty

728
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 5: one rows beside the visitors bench but behind the rim

729
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 5: and apparently you know, according to a report here on

730
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 5: the athletic Lakers fans were being either kicked out or

731
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 5: asked to remove Laker jerseys or jackets who are seated

732
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 5: in that.

733
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 4: In the wall, they get out, get out they early,

734
00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 4: like in the season or preseason, like, hey, it's only

735
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 4: going to be Clippers fans in there, and we were wondering,

736
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 4: holl are you going to police that because they're twisting

737
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 4: some arms in there.

738
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 1: He could offer, get.

739
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 5: Out, right, and apparently that happened, and they were Laker

740
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 5: fans in the building and they were ready as they

741
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 5: got into their seats.

742
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: There was a ton of them.

743
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 5: It could have been sixty forty Clippers Lakers, the thing

744
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 5: that Steve Balmer absolutely hates, does not want. But they

745
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 5: couldn't be heard because the Clippers kicked their butts and

746
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 5: they just had nothing to cheer for. But I just

747
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 5: wanted to quote Austin Reeves about the wall. He said,

748
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,479
Speaker 5: it's a good idea. It kind of gives you more

749
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 5: of like a college atmosphere to where I don't even

750
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 5: really want to elaborate on it. So yeah, he just

751
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 5: stopped his state. He stopped it, and then he was asked,

752
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,959
Speaker 5: what do you mean, what can you can you elaborate.

753
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 5: He said, no, that's that's really all I got to say.

754
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 5: I think basically he's saying they've got a freaking great arena,

755
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 5: they got great fans who come out and show. But

756
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 5: he didn't want to elaborate. He started and he stopped himself.

757
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 5: It sure felt that way. You gotta maal, Yeah, I

758
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 5: didn't want to do exactly exactly. That's that's what I

759
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 5: feel like.

760
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 4: Or did he think he was like going to get

761
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 4: himself in trouble with Lakers fans?

762
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,959
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I mean, well, yeah, basically saying arena

763
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 5: is better, he didn't want to say that.

764
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: I would hope it's better. It's a brand new Yeah.

765
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 4: Also, I'm gonna still go out on a limb and

766
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 4: say Lakers fans are better than Clippers.

767
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: I know, well, no, I'm gonna say that.

768
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 5: I think he's I think he's implying that Clippers fans

769
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 5: are louder than Lakers.

770
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: The team is better, right, No, I guess you know,

771
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: Lakers fans it costs a lot.

772
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 5: Of money to get into that arena. We reach in

773
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 5: as as you were saying, yes as well, Austin said,

774
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 5: it not mean we.

775
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 3: Stopped the socialis versus spotlights.

776
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, oh very well.

777
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 4: Do you have anything from Sunday in the NBA?

778
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 3: Is anybody ready to talk themselves into the Clippers yet?

779
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 3: Well more than one with Kawhi on the court, played

780
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 3: twenty four minutes, Like you said, skeets nine for thirteen,

781
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 3: last two games, seventeen for twenty four. They've been a

782
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 3: good team the entire year. You know they're going to

783
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 3: play defense. Tyler always has the team playing defense. Are

784
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 3: you willing to buy the Clippers as a dark horse

785
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 3: title contend?

786
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: Wow? Never, You're not? No, never, but not ahead? But

787
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 1: go ahead, don't do it.

788
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 4: I guess Kawi didn't play last night when the Bulls

789
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 4: crushed the Clips.

790
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, they smoked them. No, no zoobots either.

791
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 4: No zubotsh It's a weird weekend. I look like, I

792
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 4: felt like like a team would have a really good

793
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 4: quality win and then they would turn around and like

794
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 4: lose a stinker or vice versa. So it was like

795
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 4: just a strange weekend overall. To like, if we were

796
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 4: doing winners and losers the weekend, it wasn't really difficult.

797
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: But no, are you?

798
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 4: I mean you're more of a Clipper fan.

799
00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: I'm more of a Clipper fan.

800
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 5: And when you see the lineup, when you see what

801
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 5: Kawhi Leonard has done coming back basically allow James Harden

802
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 5: to work off the ball a little bit. They've shared

803
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 5: ball handling, so Kawhi the point guard with Harden plus

804
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 5: an awesome Norman Powell and Derek Jones Junior on the

805
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:21,280
Speaker 5: wings as scores slash defenders like DJJ got the Maps

806
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,720
Speaker 5: to the finals because of that, and it eats the Zubats.

807
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:24,759
Speaker 1: That looks good.

808
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 5: And then the guys on the bench now with Chris

809
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 5: Don and Batoom and Porter, they are deep Whenwi is playing,

810
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 5: and that's obviously the most important thing. We sat here

811
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 5: a mirror, you know, it was like ten months ago

812
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 5: and we're like, yeah, they sure do look like a

813
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 5: team that could challenge. And they do, they literally do.

814
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 5: But it comes down to Kawhi playing and I guess

815
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 5: he's not playing in back to backs, that's the thing.

816
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 1: I guess they're slow playing it.

817
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 4: But good for them that they have a good record

818
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 4: that they will be in the playoffs. It sure looks

819
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 4: like where you look at a team like the Sixers

820
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 4: and how they obviously handle them be and it's like

821
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 4: you got to get in there to then have your

822
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 4: guy in there if he's even healthy that point. Saturday,

823
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 4: really entertaining game. Weird game, if I'm being honest. So

824
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 4: the Celtics fell to the Hawks in overtime. True Holiday

825
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 4: really gave this one away at the end of the regulation.

826
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 4: The Hawks were trying their best to give it away,

827
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 4: but Trey Young scored twenty eight to get that victory

828
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 4: over the Celtics. We had Donovan Mitchell scored in thirty

829
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 4: six points, Garland added twenty nine, cast took control in

830
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 4: the second half. They beat the Wolves one twenty four,

831
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 4: one seventeen on Saturday night. And then finally, a big

832
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 4: story from the weekend was Kevin Durant, a happy football

833
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 4: fan there on Saturday after his Washington Commanders defeated Devin

834
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:43,720
Speaker 4: Booker's Detroit Lions in the NFL Divisional Round playoff series

835
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 4: and or game Katie winning a per DM bet. I

836
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 4: guess what a couple hundred bucks from Booker. They were

837
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 4: there because they were in Detroit and they beat them.

838
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 4: So anyway, Katie had a good a good weekend there

839
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 4: at least a good Saturday.

840
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 3: Your thoughts, Wow, the Commanders just send her season, right,

841
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,879
Speaker 3: jayde DANIELSA can't face him. No, he's got a fan

842
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 3: in Tom Brady. He's like, I love the way you prepare.

843
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 3: Cool for that. Sorry to the Lions, but that's what

844
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 3: it is being the Lions. The Hawks, though, why do

845
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 3: they play so well against the Celtics two and one

846
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 3: this season, two and two last year? They went zero

847
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,240
Speaker 3: and three the previous season, but they did take two

848
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 3: games off of in the playoffs in the first round.

849
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 3: This season, the Hawks are two and one against the Celtics,

850
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 3: two and zero against the Cleveland Cavaliers, and two and

851
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 3: one against the New York Knicks. Pretty great record. Six

852
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 3: and two against the top three teams in the Eastern

853
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 3: Conference sixteen and eighteen versus the rest of the league

854
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,280
Speaker 3: just shows you they played to the level of their competition.

855
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 3: That's good against the good teams, and everybody has a

856
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 3: chance against the other teams. But yeah, you're right, the

857
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 3: Celtics kind of gave this one away. They're up to

858
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 3: with twenty seconds left, Trey Young gets a technical foul,

859
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 3: poorly time technical foul. But the Hawks got really lucky

860
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 3: because after the free throw in the possession, Jalen Brown

861
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,439
Speaker 3: just caught the ball standing on a bounce, that being

862
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 3: something Hawks ball. On the other end, a lot went

863
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 3: wrong for the Celtics in the last couple of minutes

864
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 3: of regulation to actually take this into overtime where the

865
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 3: Hawks were better. Weird game, but the Hawks will do that.

866
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 3: They will scare a team in the first round of

867
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:14,760
Speaker 3: the playoffs.

868
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, they play up to their competition, but

869
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 5: the Celtics haven't played down to their competition as well.

870
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 5: I mean they were up to start this game. I

871
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 5: thought in the second quarter watching this one was when

872
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,959
Speaker 5: they really gave it away. They just weren't clicking, some

873
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 5: horrible turnovers, just not reading the situation. They had a

874
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 5: three on one, a three on one that turned into

875
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 5: a missed alley oop. Drew Carter, who's the Celtics play

876
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 5: by play man, said, what was that? Literally just yelling

877
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 5: out for we're here, our championship team is playing that bad?

878
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 5: They just kind of gave it away. And we've seen

879
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,919
Speaker 5: that from the Celtics and we've had this discussion what's

880
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,439
Speaker 5: going on with this team? And then the fourth quarter

881
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 5: to end it, they literally gave it away. Although after

882
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 5: the game, Joe Mozula said, I like that.

883
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 1: He likes that they're frustrated.

884
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 5: There's also a Jason Tatum versus Anyaka and Conglo grabbing

885
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 5: the ball. It was fun and Daman was mad and

886
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 5: Joe Miszula says, I like that where I kind of

887
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 5: liked where that we're eight and eight over the last

888
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 5: sixteen and we got some scrappiness, which is true. And

889
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 5: then they came back and scrapped against the Warriors and

890
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 5: that worked.

891
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 1: So I guess Mossoula was right.

892
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 4: I will say if we were actually doing a traditional

893
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,720
Speaker 4: winners and losers the weekend, I think the Calves maybe

894
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 4: would have gotten it because they had two quality wins

895
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 4: after getting you know, embarrassed last week in ok See.

896
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,399
Speaker 4: They bounced back. They beat the Wolves, as I said

897
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 4: there on Saturday. They followed that up beating the Suns.

898
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 4: Handedly Mitchell looked great in both those games. Played the

899
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 4: Rockets here in the next one, so that should be good.

900
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 4: But they look good. Ant did become the third youngest

901
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:46,360
Speaker 4: player in NBA history to score eight thousand points. Lebron Katie.

902
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 4: They reached eight thousand points at a younger age, but

903
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 4: aunt right there next on the list. Did you take

904
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 4: any football games in over the weekend.

905
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, Trey mentioned in the Washington Commanders. I heard

906
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 5: Tom Brady on the call. Well, this is like a

907
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 5: video game because the Commanders are great. I guess you know.

908
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 5: I didn't watch. I watched the Chiefs and somehow the

909
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 5: Bills got it done.

910
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: Oh that was a weird one. Thank you, Mark drop

911
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 1: drop that hurt to drop a two point conversion straight up, straight.

912
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 3: From Lamar to Lively, Derek Lively's brother, maybe.

913
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 1: Maybe Blake Lively's brother. I watched her movie what What's

914
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,800
Speaker 1: what's hers? Uh? End of it?

915
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 3: Not?

916
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: End of us has not a name, like a sentence name.

917
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it ends with us.

918
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, you know I didn't watch it.

919
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,760
Speaker 5: I was watching it over somebody's shoulder on the airplane's

920
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 5: watching it.

921
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 1: I wasn't.

922
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 5: But then I was looking for it on the on

923
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 5: the return flight because I didn't have enough time to

924
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 5: end it on the return I was looking for it

925
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 5: on the the Delta console, but it was such an

926
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 5: older plane they didn't have it on the console.

927
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: So I didn't watch the end of it.

928
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,760
Speaker 4: It did you Rod dog it as in the flight,

929
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 4: sit there and do nothing.

930
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: I can't pull it up. I think you could. I

931
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: could see you do it. I hate myself for it,

932
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: but I could do it.

933
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I admire those people that have just

934
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 5: the flight tracker on.

935
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: Oh god, it's just like watching your watch.

936
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 4: Okay, let's go on Friday, Our final, Our final data recap.

937
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 4: Here a few interesting things the Heats. Jimmy Butler had

938
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 4: eighteen points in his return from a seven game suspension.

939
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:36,760
Speaker 4: This was in a loss to the Nuggets. Jamal Murray

940
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 4: was awesome, Yoki's triple double. They crushed Miami at home.

941
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,960
Speaker 4: But we can get into Jimmy Butler and some of

942
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 4: his comments and his antics leading up to the game.

943
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 4: We also had Anthony Edwards. He had a great game

944
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 4: in Madison Square Garden. He went for thirty six and thirteen.

945
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 4: And we had some twenty twenty five NBA All Star

946
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 4: Game jerseys that got leaked. We'll show you those in

947
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,720
Speaker 4: a second. I want to start with the Jimmy Butler

948
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 4: of it all TK because he suited up in two

949
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 4: games over the weekend again following that suspension. It wasn't amazing.

950
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 4: I mean, I think he averaged like thirteen points per game,

951
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 4: played thirty minutes per game. His big quote was the

952
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 4: whole truth will come out. That was sort of what

953
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 4: he said. Then there was a lot of like no comments.

954
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 4: He did wear the Jordan forty five jersey. There was

955
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 4: the I'm back fax from his agent leading.

956
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:27,720
Speaker 1: Up to the Friday game.

957
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 4: So anyway, it didn't go well. I mean, he didn't

958
00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 4: ball out, But we're just sort of silly sitting here

959
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 4: waiting for what the heater gonna do with Jimmy Butler.

960
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 3: We're just sitting here waiting, and it feels like the

961
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 3: he got the Jimmy Butler that we've seen so far

962
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: this season, Like it hasn't been great. He's like sixteen

963
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 3: points per game, all right, maybe eighteen at this point,

964
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,480
Speaker 3: but he feels like he's become the third man on

965
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 3: the Miami Heat from an offensive pecking order standpoint, and

966
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 3: that kind of felt like the same spot he was

967
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 3: in Tyler Heroes. The main perimeter guy. Bam is obviously

968
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,760
Speaker 3: like a dribble handoff set, a screen switch the side

969
00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 3: kind of player as well, But those are the main

970
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 3: two guys. So Jimmy has to get in where he

971
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 3: fits in, and that appears to be the problem. He

972
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,920
Speaker 3: also said, my beef isn't with these guys. I love

973
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 3: my teammates. They're cool, they're my friends. The beef is

974
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 3: obviously with pat Riley, and the beef is especially with

975
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,359
Speaker 3: getting paid. It does seem like, but I don't know,

976
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 3: it feels like the best thing for the Heat would

977
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 3: be Jimmy playing keeping up with no comments, saying whatever,

978
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 3: We're going to talk about it eventually. Right, Like him

979
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 3: being on the court and being a reliable player for

980
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 3: the team, even if he's not scoring thirty a game,

981
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 3: is better than him doing Instagram stories from the brick

982
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,840
Speaker 3: and mortar shop at Big Face Coffee. Right. It looks

983
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,319
Speaker 3: like he cares about playing basketball, which I think is

984
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 3: good for the Heat. Maybe they can get something back,

985
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 3: or they have to tough it out until the summer

986
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 3: where they try and make the trade. Either way, it

987
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 3: means Jimmy's going to be back on the court. The

988
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,359
Speaker 3: main thing that I took away from the Nuggets game, though,

989
00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:59,560
Speaker 3: is that Jamal Murray's hooping right now. He's playing really,

990
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 3: really well. He's gotten he's back over twenty points per

991
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,240
Speaker 3: game he had thirty, and this one could get anywhere

992
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 3: he wanted again, is what it looks like to me

993
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 3: and He's put together a nice string of five or

994
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 3: so games here, so it seems like maybe he's turned

995
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 3: the quarter and we'll see. I need to know, though,

996
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 3: if Jimmy Butler and his agent found an actual fax

997
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 3: machine to send in the I'm back because otherwise kind

998
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:19,919
Speaker 3: of lamb.

999
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1000
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: I don't think so.

1001
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 4: I think that was just for the social media.

1002
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, just a photoshop job.

1003
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 5: I do agree that Jimmy Butler strictly playing helps his

1004
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,800
Speaker 5: trade value, and he got better as the Denver Nuggets

1005
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 5: game went on. He shot seven of fifteen eighteen points.

1006
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 5: He got into it a little bit more and dropped

1007
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 5: seven assists against the Spurs. So I think over all

1008
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 5: the packages fine. I call him a package now in

1009
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 5: terms of what everybody is watching, if they're going to

1010
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 5: want to trade for him. I do want to know

1011
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 5: the heats court is called pat Riley Court. Does he

1012
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 5: hate playing on the pat Riley court? He doesn't like

1013
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 5: wow because of that. But on the other end, Yeah,

1014
00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 5: the Nuggets look awesome. They have changed who they are really.

1015
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 5: I mean Jamal Murray, yes, amazing. He looks so crafty

1016
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,399
Speaker 5: with the ball, the handoffs coming from Nikola Jokic way

1017
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 5: up at the top. It's even different, I think than

1018
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 5: the one, the pick and roll game that they got

1019
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 5: to the finals with. It's handoffs because Nikola Jokic can

1020
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 5: shoot threes. Now you really can't play off him whatsoever.

1021
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,400
Speaker 5: Thirty points on twenty four shots. But then he's Jokic

1022
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,279
Speaker 5: is out there and can just set guys up with

1023
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 5: Christian Brown who's great with the baseline cuts, Westbrook who's

1024
00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 5: good with every freaking cut. And they're so good at

1025
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 5: the fast break, the Brown and Westbrook because they're super athletic,

1026
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 5: and that's why they lead the league in fast break points.

1027
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 5: They looks different with Jokic dropping passes and to Porter

1028
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 5: out there. That's their five, you know, giving those handoffs.

1029
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 5: They're number one in assists in the NBA and they

1030
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 5: have thirty five in this one. So that's their starting lineup.

1031
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 5: And Aaron Gordon is now on the bench and he

1032
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 5: is going to help that bench which has problems the

1033
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 5: non Jokic minutes, and he looked really good out there.

1034
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 5: He's the focus of that second unit. He's the guy,

1035
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 5: and so it's different out there. It's it's him, DeAndre

1036
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 5: Jordan Peyton Watson who's shooting threes from the corner. I

1037
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 5: think that's the important part. Just like Russell Westbrook, you

1038
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 5: got to stay in the corner to get the most

1039
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 5: out of he. So those three guys and Julian Strather,

1040
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 5: who is up and down, but it's a different team now.

1041
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 5: They've resorted to what they are and they're you know,

1042
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 5: they're on pace. If we're talking the Clippers as a

1043
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 5: championship threat, I think you got it. You got to

1044
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 5: add the Nuggets as a championship threat.

1045
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, absolutely, you got to be ahead of the

1046
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 4: Clippers for sure. Back to Jimmy for a second. ESPN's

1047
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 4: Brian Windhors suggested on the latest episode of The Hoop

1048
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,800
Speaker 4: Collective podcast that Miami has actually gotten more serious I

1049
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 4: guess over the last couple of days about trying to

1050
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 4: get a deal done and trying to move Jimmy Butler.

1051
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 4: Quote this is Windhorse on the podcast. Since Jimmy had

1052
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 4: his meeting with Mickey Arrison on Thursday, there's no doubt

1053
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,320
Speaker 4: an uptick in discussions around Jimmy Butler. The heat shifted

1054
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 4: into a near new gear after that meeting. I even

1055
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 4: had a team on Friday call me and say, hey,

1056
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 4: we were just talking to a couple teams. We're trying

1057
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,880
Speaker 4: to dump a salary and they all of a sudden

1058
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 4: had to end our phone calls to do something bigger.

1059
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 4: They said, what's going on? And I go, well, I

1060
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 4: don't know, but I speculate that it has to do

1061
00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 4: with Jimmy Butler, and not just a direct Butler trade,

1062
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 4: but a three and four team trades. To the point

1063
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 4: is I do think the heater actually trying here end

1064
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 4: quote there from Brian Windhorst, who's in the no fingers up,

1065
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 4: And it does feel like if Jimmy Butler trade does

1066
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 4: happen in the next couple weeks, it will involve a third,

1067
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 4: potentially a fourth trade in terms of salary moving. And

1068
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 4: I'm interested to see what those teams are that get

1069
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 4: in on the mix and what they can get out

1070
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,240
Speaker 4: of this, you know, just by helping facilitate moving Jimmy.

1071
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 3: Really yeah, because there's obviously still tension there. He He's

1072
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 3: saying the truth will come out eventually. Eric Spolstras saying,

1073
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 3: you're not going to get me to say anything about this.

1074
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 3: Let's just talk about what's happening in basketball. So clearly

1075
00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 3: there's still problems between Jimmy and the front office of

1076
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 3: the Heat, and it's still going to be complicated for

1077
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 3: him to get traded, especially if he wants to go

1078
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 3: to these teams that are competitive, that have high salary

1079
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,400
Speaker 3: cap numbers and have to do all kinds the crazy

1080
00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 3: moves to actually be able to trade for Jimmy. So yeah,

1081
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 3: hopefully maybe something will happen. I guess we'll see the

1082
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 3: other thing. I would say, Colloe where looks all right?

1083
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:08,840
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1084
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,720
Speaker 3: I had a nine points seven rebounds in Jimmy's return

1085
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 3: on Friday, But then twenty five eight and two against

1086
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 3: the Spurs on Sunday gives the Heat a curveball that

1087
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 3: they didn't have, like a guy that's actually bigger than

1088
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 3: Bam and can play alongside Bam as a center two.

1089
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 3: BIG's bit of a change up for them. So I

1090
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 3: just call a curveball and a chain. It's an off

1091
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,399
Speaker 3: speed pitch. I guaranteed an off speed pitch. You can

1092
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,320
Speaker 3: tell that we're out of baseball season, right, it's a slurve.

1093
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,320
Speaker 1: I saw the Blue Jays finally signed somebody. Yeah, I

1094
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 1: don't know who it is, but I know that I was.

1095
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,319
Speaker 4: They finally got somebody because the Jays are always in

1096
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 4: the running for a guy, like always the second or.

1097
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:48,320
Speaker 5: Third day, and they keep missing until Anthony Santander steps

1098
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 5: up to the place.

1099
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 1: No, just a Sander. But are they over panned? It

1100
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 1: seems like they're over bad. What's this guy do? H

1101
00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: he's a big daughter. He was third in home runs

1102
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: in terms of al hitters last week. The hell he

1103
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: hit a lot of homers. But he's he's all homers. Oh,

1104
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,800
Speaker 1: he's Rob Deer about today?

1105
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, five years, ninety two and a half at thirty

1106
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,240
Speaker 5: years old. He may be peaking the next couple of years,

1107
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 5: so maybe it's too long term a deal.

1108
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:21,080
Speaker 1: No hate but you know nothing about it. Hate it,

1109
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: don't like it. No overpaid.

1110
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 5: When we get the number forty four smacks last year, Wow,

1111
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 5: that's a lot of smacks.

1112
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 1: Okay, good now, I love it.

1113
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,839
Speaker 4: All right, let's show me those All Star jerseys. These

1114
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,919
Speaker 4: apparently are going to be the jerseys in the Bay

1115
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 4: for the twenty twenty five All Star Game.

1116
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:37,880
Speaker 1: These are league nothing official.

1117
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:39,640
Speaker 4: I don't think the NBA has commented on this, but

1118
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 4: there are four of them and we're showing them to

1119
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,080
Speaker 4: you here on the YouTube. We got red one, we

1120
00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 4: got sort of the I guess dark blue one, the

1121
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:49,879
Speaker 4: All Star styleized a little differently, got a white one,

1122
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 4: and then we have the what color do you call

1123
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 4: this blue?

1124
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: That's like, what do you call them?

1125
00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,239
Speaker 3: It's in between a baby and a rock.

1126
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 4: Robin, It's gonna say Robin. But I was like, is

1127
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 4: that okay? So anyway, what do we think of these?

1128
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:06,880
Speaker 4: If these are indeed the jerseys? TK me like you,

1129
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:10,319
Speaker 4: I like him.

1130
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:11,799
Speaker 3: I think they look good. I mean they look like

1131
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 3: a pretty standard All Star jerseys. We got four of them.

1132
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,320
Speaker 3: Now apparently we got four teams. We're gonna have random

1133
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 3: assistant coaches coaching. I actually think the Thunder should let

1134
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 3: Nick Gallo be the coach? Oh yes, let him do

1135
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 3: the do the second team? Who cares? They love him,

1136
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 3: The Thunder guys love they love Let Nick draft us.

1137
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: We don't want to play from Mark. I always play

1138
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 3: for Mark.

1139
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 5: They were so mad the other day when Jared Greenberg

1140
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 5: had the postgame interview, Nick gallows, where's they.

1141
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,360
Speaker 1: Like the guy?

1142
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:47,760
Speaker 3: I like the blues?

1143
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1144
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 3: Blues?

1145
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? So you don't mind him? Yeah?

1146
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:53,919
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's okay to like All Star

1147
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 5: uniforms anymore, because everybody every year.

1148
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: Everybody, y, we got to hate him.

1149
00:50:58,680 --> 00:50:58,879
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1150
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 5: I would love to see them just wear their actual

1151
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,439
Speaker 5: team uniforms one day. But now that we have four

1152
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,719
Speaker 5: teams at All Star weekend, you gotta come out with

1153
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 5: other jerseys, right, You can't just be wearing your team

1154
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 5: jerseys if you have four teams. That feels if that

1155
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 5: feels super weird. I do like the blue. I had

1156
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 5: to look up. You see, I'm getting into the nitty gritty.

1157
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,399
Speaker 5: How it says seventy fourth annual. So that's seventy fourth

1158
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 5: annual All Star Game, I guess because not seventy fifth

1159
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 5: season seven fifth season was.

1160
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's gotta be yeah, yeah, yes.

1161
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: Yes, that's weird. Anyway, it's getting into the nitty gritty.

1162
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 3: I thought.

1163
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,320
Speaker 1: I thought it's close to a baby blue, which I

1164
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,240
Speaker 1: always loved. But yeah, I guess it's not baby Baby, Baby,

1165
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 1: baby Baby.

1166
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 3: Where are they going to put the numbers on the front.

1167
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 3: I guess they won't have it. I guess at a

1168
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 3: little that cool little star logo. That's star logo, always

1169
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 3: a banger. They make it for every single Yeah, the

1170
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 3: Jazz had a what it was like mountains on the

1171
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 3: top of theirs. I think it was a race car

1172
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 3: inspired for Indiana last year. You got some bridge action

1173
00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:58,360
Speaker 3: for this one. Cool stuff.

1174
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 4: So it's going to sound very weird. But that baby blue,

1175
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,600
Speaker 4: Robin blue, whatever we're calling it. I recently watched the

1176
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:09,359
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety two Royal Rumble which involved Sid Justice as

1177
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 4: one of the final guys, and he's wearing a very

1178
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 4: similar color to that blue.

1179
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,280
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, and it was one of his best looks.

1180
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 1: I thought. So I'm also thumbs up.

1181
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:22,919
Speaker 4: It's an honor of Sid Justice, who got pulled out

1182
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 4: by Hulk Hogan.

1183
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,200
Speaker 1: Do you remember that one? This is an iconic rumbo.

1184
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 1: It's the one that.

1185
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 4: Flair wins, and he wins the belt, but Hogan, what

1186
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 4: a piece of shit. He gets thrown out and then

1187
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,879
Speaker 4: grabs Sid Vicious and pulls him out.

1188
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 1: And like, I know, I'm sure when I was young, I.

1189
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 4: Would have been like eleven or twelve. Yeah, Hulk Holgan man, Yeah, yeah,

1190
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,680
Speaker 4: Hulky maniacs. But like the morning you look back on it, man,

1191
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 4: that guy was a heel.

1192
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:47,800
Speaker 3: Throw him through.

1193
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,319
Speaker 1: He sucked the ref could didn't pull him back in. No,

1194
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: hey no, they're like Ohan pull him out.

1195
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1196
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's embarrassing man, just take the loss.

1197
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:58,960
Speaker 4: Flair couldn't even celebrate in the ring, like he had

1198
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 4: to go get his belt in the back. Though it

1199
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,160
Speaker 4: gave us like an iconic promo that was good, but

1200
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 4: like he didn't even in a moment because Hogan gets

1201
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 4: in there and Flaire has to run away ninety two

1202
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:11,640
Speaker 4: rumblemant this whole Cogan guy.

1203
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he sucks.

1204
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 3: Starting to think something's up there.

1205
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:17,120
Speaker 4: We should have seen the writing at the right stumbe

1206
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 4: he's not man, he's not taking his vitamins. Yeah, right,

1207
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:26,400
Speaker 4: all right, let's go to pick the four tonight Taska.

1208
00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 4: Not a lot of games on actually here on a

1209
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 4: Tuesday nights where we're going.

1210
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 5: We are going to Toronto. The Orlando Magic are visiting Toronto.

1211
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 5: Is a three and a half point underdog, so they

1212
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:38,719
Speaker 5: can lose by three or win.

1213
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,120
Speaker 1: If you're taking them, and I am taking them.

1214
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,480
Speaker 5: Because the injuries are finally caught up to the Orlando Magic,

1215
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:46,560
Speaker 5: specifically Jalen sucks.

1216
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:47,800
Speaker 1: That's really really.

1217
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 5: Important to have a ball handler out there. He's missed

1218
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,280
Speaker 5: the last eight games. They're two and six without him,

1219
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 5: and there's a lot of other guys though. Franz Wagner,

1220
00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 5: Mo Wagner, Jeded Howard, Gary Harris, and Gogo Bataz.

1221
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,799
Speaker 1: All out and the reps have had three days off.

1222
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:05,200
Speaker 5: They better cover, So Skeets and you, You and myself

1223
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 5: were taking those wraps train ash taking the magic here and.

1224
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: What's becoming a a little bit of a tough ride

1225
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, we need the wraps to win tonight

1226
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 1: or cover. We need the wraps to cover back here. Yeah,

1227
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm running out of January. I needed that one on Friday.

1228
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 4: I guess I took the heat in Jimmy's return and

1229
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,840
Speaker 4: the Nuggets crushed them. So I need this one to

1230
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,919
Speaker 4: have any chance to get back into this. Otherwise I'm

1231
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 4: going to be doing podcasts behind a bookshelf. We'll leave

1232
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,279
Speaker 4: it that back. We have the pick and payoff. It's

1233
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 4: gonna be weird. I think it's gonna be funny.

1234
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, we'll see if I can get out of

1235
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: the last place here behind a bookshelf. We only have

1236
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 1: a Royal Rumble moment where somebody.

1237
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 5: Pulls you from the bookshelf. I know there's no real

1238
00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:54,439
Speaker 5: good comparison. I take it all back.

1239
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,200

Speaker 1: what I said.

1263
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,520

1264
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,000
Speaker 4: on his phone the Eiffel Tower that he built out

1265
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 4: of lego and it's ten thousand pieces. I believe it's

1266
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,200
Speaker 4: actually huge, like he's a giant man, and it like

1267
