How many has he been around for? 103 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,600 Speaker 5: It's something to say. I don't know what it is 104 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 5: at this point. It's on the website. Go to Weggie 105 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 5: tracker dot com. 106 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 6: He's incredible just making us a part of the broadcast. 107 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 6: What an honor. He just just throws us in there 108 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 6: every single time. And also reminding me that Anthony Simons 109 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 6: won the Slam Dunk Contest. Yes, that happened this year. 110 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 4: That was this year. 111 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was the thing that happened in this weird, 112 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 5: weird NBA season. All right, well, there's going to be 113 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 5: another Blazer's Weggie. I think Anthony Simons should jump up 114 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 5: and kiss the weggie while it's up there. We saw 115 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 5: him kiss the rim and the dunk contest, then grab 116 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 5: it on the way down. Come on, especially if it 117 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 5: was the fiftieth one or the record breaking onund that 118 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 5: would be amazing. And then the last word along Lamar 119 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 5: and then like we take that ball, put it in 120 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 5: the Hall of Fame and like his lip marks. Yeah, okay, okay, 121 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 5: NBA Weekend winners and losers, let's get into it because 122 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 5: we have always have a long show here on Monday, 123 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 5: because lots to talk about as we catch up on 124 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 5: the NBA and we got one more week of the 125 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 5: regular season here, which is really fun. So tasks, Why 126 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 5: don't you get started. Who's your big winner of the 127 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 5: NBA weekend? 128 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 6: Well, I got to start with the Los Angeles Lakers. 129 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 6: They are looking like the champs again. The seventh seeded 130 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 6: Los Angeles Lakers just came out and absolutely obliterated the 131 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 6: second seeded Phoenix Suns on Sunday. Anthony Davis now looks 132 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 6: like his usual all NBA self. All of a sudden, 133 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 6: It's like they flipped the switch. It really is like 134 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 6: the Lakers just decided, Okay, we are now the favorites, 135 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 6: even though we are the seventh seed. Anthony Davis came 136 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 6: out and was the best player on the basketball floor. 137 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 6: Even though Chris Paul and Den Booker on the other side, 138 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 6: He's literally unstoppable against that Phoenix Suns front line. They 139 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 6: just have so many problems. Now. It would be different 140 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 6: if they face off against the Utah Jazz in the 141 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 6: first round. I'm looking ahead here because the Lakers are 142 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 6: trying to figure out a way to get out of 143 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 6: the play in tournament and avoid the Jazz and the 144 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 6: Suns and play somebody like the Clippers or the Nuggets. 145 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 6: But Anthony Davis coming back and showing that he is 146 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 6: like the guy who is favored to be the Finals 147 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 6: MVP through two games last year, looking like that guy. 148 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 6: Forty two points, twelve boards, three blocks, three steals. And 149 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 6: I think they are the favorites in the Western Conference 150 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 6: and they still don't have Lebron James back, and I 151 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 6: say they're the winners of the weekend. I say they 152 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 6: are the favorite in the West because it sure sounds 153 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 6: like Lebron will be back very very soon. They've got 154 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 6: four games left. I'm not sure if he comes back 155 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,119 Speaker 6: for the next game against the Knicks, but I'm gonna 156 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 6: say that the Lakers are gonna get out of the 157 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 6: play in tournament and are gonna finish sixth, even though 158 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 6: they're a game back of the Blazers, actually two games 159 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 6: back in reality, because they don't hold the tie break, 160 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 6: so they're gonna have to be two games better than 161 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 6: the Blazers with only four games remaining. But the Blazers 162 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 6: have a real tough sked the Lakers if they flip 163 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 6: the switch and look like this with their easy schedule 164 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 6: of the Knicks. That's a tough one, but it's still 165 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 6: at home. And then the Rockets, Pelicans and Pacers versus 166 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 6: the Blazers who have the Jazz, Sons, Nuggets plus an 167 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 6: easy one in the Rockets. You know, the Lakers go 168 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 6: three and one, Blazers go one and three or four 169 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 6: and oh and two and two, and the Lakers get in. 170 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 6: I think that's going to happen because I think the 171 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 6: Lakers know they just know how to do it, they 172 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 6: just know how to flip it, and they're ready to 173 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 6: get going here and they want to get the heck 174 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 6: out of the play in tournament, and I think there's 175 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 6: a legitimate chance that that happens. And the way they're 176 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 6: playing with the best defense in the NBA, which is 177 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 6: easy to forget. It's easy to forget for me, but 178 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 6: you watch them out there and how they scrap and 179 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 6: fight against the Phoenix Suns guards. They're really really good 180 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 6: and they have a lot of cohesion on both ends. 181 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 6: So yeah, I think the Lakers are totally entirely legit 182 00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 6: and they should be the favorites, even though they're going 183 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 6: to be on the road for every single series. 184 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 5: It is so weird. I can't wrap my head around 185 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 5: a possible seventh seed being the favorites in the Western Conference. 186 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 5: But I'm sort of with you. Just wake the Blazers 187 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,679 Speaker 5: picking up the big win on Friday Night against the Lakers. 188 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 5: That was huge for the tiebreaker reason, so maybe they 189 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 5: do hold onto it. Yeah, they're gonna need one really 190 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 5: good victory. It sounds like task like you said, I 191 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 5: should win that last one. Who was it against the Rockets? 192 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: I guess it was. 193 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 6: It's their next it's their next game of the Rockets, 194 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 6: even though I threw it at the end. But yes, yeah, 195 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 6: so they should get one easy one and yeah, then 196 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 6: they have. 197 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 5: To win a tough one. 198 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, but they might. They might get a break with 199 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: the Suns because the Sons are virtually locked into that 200 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: number two spot now in the West. Now they can 201 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: still get number one, but they can't drop to number three. Really, 202 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 2: So if the Suns decide, perhaps before that last game 203 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: of the season, that they maybe rest some of their guys, 204 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,199 Speaker 2: then the Blazers could pick up a victory there, the 205 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: cheap one. 206 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 5: Why but the Lakers going to go the Lakers the 207 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 5: entire week off with the players, Well to you know, 208 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 5: maybe it's like you know what, but I don't want 209 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 5: to play the Lakers in the first round. Oh, I 210 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 5: got the number one seed. I don't want to do 211 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 5: the second seed. If the Lakers are gonna be the 212 00:08:58,000 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 5: seventh seed coming out of the two. 213 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 2: Games back of Utah with only four to play, they 214 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: have to run the table. The Suns and the Jazz 215 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 2: have to completely fall apart. So I just think it's unlikely. 216 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: And the Sons that certainly are in that position where 217 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 2: it's like, you know what, maybe we just want that 218 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 2: extra Maybe they don't, but you know, that's what teams 219 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: tend to do at this stage of the season. 220 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 6: I think that's a good point. They could definitely lay 221 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 6: lay an egg there. But even if the Blazers go 222 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 6: two and two and lose to the Jazz and or 223 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 6: the Nuggets, the Jazz also don't want to see the 224 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 6: Lakers in the first round, so they want to beat 225 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 6: the Blazers and push them down to the playing tournament. 226 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 6: The Lakers can go four and oh and be in 227 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 6: if the Blazers go two and two. So that's that's real, 228 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 6: it's legit. So this first this last week, I should say, 229 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 6: is it's going to be entertaining for those reasons, but 230 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 6: also a bunch of good games, also a bunch of 231 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 6: races that we'll get to. 232 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 5: Oh my god, I know, I still can't believe this 233 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 5: is the final week of the regular season trail. Like 234 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 5: I don't know, it just not like this will never end. 235 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 5: For some reason, we've just been talking about basketball for 236 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 5: I don't know, like two straight years. It feels like 237 00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 5: at least I know we did have some breaks there, 238 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 5: but they weren't that long. But yeah, what'd you think 239 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 5: about eighties dominant performance there? TK, I mean, task said it. 240 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 5: He's back Anthony Davis. 241 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 4: When he's got the jumper going, there's no way you 242 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 4: can stop him if you're a standard big guy, which, 243 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 4: unfortunately for a bunch of the best teams in the 244 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 4: Western Conference, they've got a standard big guy, whether it 245 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 4: be Rudy Gobert or DeAndre Aiden, as we saw yesterday 246 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 4: with the Suns, who was just in foul trouble for 247 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: most of the game because he can't stick with AD 248 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 4: Eighty's the biggest matchup problem in basketball right now, because 249 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 4: he's got the speed outside to be able to get 250 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 4: to the hoop, he's got the quickness off his feet 251 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 4: to get to the offensive rebounds, and he can still 252 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 4: obviously score inside when he's got the jumper going. That 253 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 4: was the thing in the finals that had him looking 254 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 4: like a Finals MVP because he was shooting like fifty 255 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 4: percent from mid range, close to forty from three, if 256 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken. He was just knocking down shots. It 257 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 4: felt automatic. That hasn't necessarily been the case since he 258 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 4: returned from injury, but he had the jumper going over 259 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: the weekend, which is humongous because it stretches out the 260 00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 4: big guys and it forces it forces the Laker opponent 261 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 4: to play Lakers style basketball. When you're playing Lakers style basketball, 262 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 4: that's gonna be a problem. Because a D the George 263 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 4: mic and of our generation, nobody can stick him. The 264 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 4: Lakers now have wins over the Nuggets and Sons without Lebron. 265 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 4: That's got to be a little bit encouraging heading into 266 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: the playoffs, especially considering a D seems to be peaking 267 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 4: right now. 268 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 5: Task we got our weird uh Brooklyn nets bet in 269 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 5: the Eastern Conference. Would you do the same thing with 270 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 5: the Lakers in the Western Conference. 271 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 6: I will, just just because it's fun to say. I 272 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 6: don't want to do it. 273 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 5: I was just kiddos, you would take the Lakers as 274 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 5: you think it's gonna be Lakers. 275 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 6: Nets in the Yeah, last last week, I was comfortable 276 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 6: taking the field against the Lakers. 277 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 5: But yeah, for sure. 278 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 6: But they they they are one of those teams. I 279 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 6: think it's it's proven now that can flip it, and 280 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 6: I guess Champs can do that. I think they've totally 281 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 6: flipped the switch and are ready to go. And I 282 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 6: know Lebron is laying in the weeds getting right and 283 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,599 Speaker 6: came back a little too early by his standards for 284 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 6: his laking and is going to come back and be 285 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 6: just as good. Like the Lakers look like they can 286 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 6: battle anybody right now. If Anthony was going to play 287 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 6: this way two great games back to back, wasn't just 288 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 6: one thirty six and then forty two over the weekend 289 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 6: and then ad Lebron, Yeah I would maybe maybe if 290 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 6: it wasn't like if it was the first bet, like 291 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 6: if we didn't have that Nets as the backup, maybe not, 292 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 6: but I probably. I still think they are the favorites. 293 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 6: And yeah, the words double or nothing are just super fun. 294 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 5: So yeah, I think it over me, we can still 295 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 5: make this happen. We a little bit of time. But Lee, 296 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 5: let's go to you NBA Winner of the Weekend for you. 297 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: Well, this one I was really excited about until I 298 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 2: saw the news that Bradley Beal is not going to 299 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: play tonight in Atlanta. He tweaked his hamstring in Saturday 300 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 2: night's victory over the Indiana Paces. He went for fifty, 301 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: but he's out with a hamstring strain, and with four 302 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 2: games to go, he's about sixty points behind Steph Curry 303 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 2: and the scoring leader spot. But you know, a hamstring 304 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: strain is very, very difficult to know if Bial might 305 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 2: not play the rest of this regular season because they're 306 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: going to need him in the playoffs. And he's got 307 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 2: a game tonight then a game of Wednesday against the Hawks. 308 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 2: So yeah, it seems like it's actually done and Steph 309 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: Curry will be the scoring chef this year. But it's 310 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: been a great race. It's been fun actually to see 311 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: these guys and Bial went for fifty on Saturday night 312 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 2: and then Steph Curry went out and had forty nine. 313 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: He could have had he could have broken wilt on 314 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 2: Saturday night if he really wanted to. Against a Thunday 315 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: Day were pathetic and he was incredible, but you know, 316 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 2: he only had twenty nine minutes and he hit eleven three, 317 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 2: so he was great. So it's pretty much done now 318 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: because I figure beer, let's say he does come back 319 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 2: for the final three games, he would need I thought 320 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 2: of was working out in the math. He needs to 321 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 2: go for about forty five a game, and hope Steph 322 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: goes for only about twenty five a game. 323 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 5: Good luck with that. 324 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, not gonna happen. So Steph is going to win 325 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: the scoring title and he is going to become the 326 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: first player in history to have more three pointer has 327 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 2: made than two point has made and lead the league 328 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 2: in scoring because he's about twenty five up I think 329 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: now in terms of three he's made. So that's kind 330 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 2: of cool. You know, it's kind of cool that he's 331 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 2: got that record. Maybe maybe no one else cares about it, 332 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 2: but I just thought it's kind of interesting, and I 333 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: wonder how long that will be until something like that 334 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: becomes the norm where the leading scorer, you know, hits 335 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 2: more threes than twos, because that's just the way the 336 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,959 Speaker 2: game's going. So yeah, shout out to Bradley Beal, you know, 337 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 2: going for fifty a Saturday night's game was actually an 338 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 2: incredibly fun game there Westbrook a now the triple double, 339 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: a game winning block shot for Westbrook as well. They're 340 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 2: some fantastic stuff. But unfortunately the race is over. But 341 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 2: it's clear that this wasn't just like, you know, Steph 342 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 2: Curry wasn't just sort of going out there and playing 343 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: the game. He wanted to win this scoring title. He 344 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: talked about it, and he noticed Beal went for fifty 345 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 2: and so it's great to have these two guys going 346 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 2: for it. So unfortunately, like I said, I think it's over, 347 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 2: but it's been kind of fun watching it to now. 348 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: Friend NBA bo Estes has been really keeping us up 349 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: to date to about the fourth or fifth decimal. 350 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 5: Point on that scoring but very specifically. 351 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, I think Steph's pretty much wrapped it up now. 352 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 5: So your winner of the weekend was this duel between 353 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 5: Beal and Curry. But unfortunately, now with the Beal injury, 354 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 5: it's you didn't want to change it. Why would Leella's 355 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 5: change it? Yeah, it was already in the. 356 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, horse, he's got the Hawks twice and the Cabs 357 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 2: and the Hornets, so it's like, you know, you could 358 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 2: go for another big forty five or fifty from coupler 359 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 2: point games there. But I just don't think it's going 360 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: to happen because the Wizards really do have to look 361 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: at what could happen here. They're going to make the 362 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: playing tournament, and they need him healthy rather than chase 363 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: the scoring title. So well, see, maybe not, maybe it 364 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: is just a rest tonight and he's back on Wednesday, 365 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 2: but hamstrings very very hard to know exactly how long, 366 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,239 Speaker 2: because I mean what Harden was only app for supposedly 367 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: a couple of games. Durant as well, and then they've 368 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 2: both been out for about a month or so, so 369 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: that that's actually the bad you know, the worst case scenarios. 370 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 2: Bill may be done for the season if you can't 371 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: get over it. 372 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 5: Don't see that? Yeah, are you excited about? 373 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: I mean? 374 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 5: Tas says that, Yeah. The Lakers, they technically, of course 375 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 5: could still get out of the playing tournament, but they 376 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 5: very well could be the seventh seed and could be 377 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 5: playing the Warriors in a playing game Lebron James versus 378 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 5: Steph Curry in at least that game win and you're 379 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 5: in scenario is this like awesome for the league or 380 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 5: actually sort of bad for the league because I guess 381 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 5: and theory you could still get both of those teams 382 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 5: into the playoffs. You know, the loser would still get 383 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 5: another chance to then be the eight seed. But good 384 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 5: or bad lely, Uh, you know, Curry versus Lebron in 385 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 5: a huge playing game, what do you think? I mean, 386 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 5: it's ask because it could be bad because you'd like 387 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 5: them both in the playoffs. 388 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: Probably, yeah, of course you would for the TV right 389 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: TV purposes. But for this game, this is perfect. You know, 390 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 2: they've both had sort of you know, bad seasons by 391 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 2: their standards in terms of the Warriors, you know, never 392 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: really got to go and Lebron was going great and 393 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: then they've really fallen apart. To see them battle, this 394 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: gives pretty much the maximum power punch to the playing tournament, 395 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: which is really I think what the NBA wants. If 396 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: you are gonna if you want this to last and 397 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 2: you want it to continue, then you're gonna have people 398 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: talking about it straight away. So I think it's great. 399 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: And obviously I think for the going forward they would 400 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 2: rather the Lakers because Lebron is just a bigger draw 401 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: card and it's the Lakers in the playoffs. But if 402 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 2: you can get hype going into the playoffs with these 403 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 2: two going at each other and potentially face you know, 404 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 2: Steph going for fifty and Lebron having a huge game 405 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: as well. I mean, that's awesome for the league because 406 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 2: you know, it's at times there's been so many games 407 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 2: this season, it's been such a compact schedule with just 408 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 2: game out, the game out, the game. Finally going to 409 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: have a game that actually means something between two of 410 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 2: the biggest stars in the league. 411 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, what would be the over under for Curry's points 412 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 5: in that game versus the Lakers TK? Yeah, you all 413 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 5: play a game like I think I'd have the Lakers 414 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 5: winning it if everybody's cherry. But I mean I think 415 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 5: Curry will just go out guns blazing here like he 416 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 5: could have. He literally could attempt twenty five to thirty 417 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 5: threes and it might be their best show to win. 418 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 419 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 4: As task said, the Lakers have the best defense in 420 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 4: the game. They've got some guards who like to get out, Yeah, 421 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 4: after it on the perimeter. So thirty nine and a 422 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 4: half is that an over under? Do you think Steph 423 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 4: curils score forty in the play in tournament? He probably would. 424 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 4: I would say, uh, seven and eight ideal for Lakers 425 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 4: and Warriors. From the league's perspective, Nine and ten would 426 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 4: be a disaster and they're playing and one of them 427 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 4: is out instantly, that would be bad. But right now 428 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 4: you've got to guaranteed Lebron versus step in one game 429 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 4: and then Lebron or Steph in the next game. That's 430 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 4: great stuff right there. We had a question not too 431 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 4: long ago about what sort of award would you like 432 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 4: to add to the league something that doesn't exist right now? 433 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 4: That should They should do something more for the scoring title. 434 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 4: You know in baseball they give like the best hitter 435 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 4: at every position they get the Silver Slugger Award. Whoever 436 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 4: wins the scoring title should get like a silver basketball 437 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 4: or something. It should be more than just you know, 438 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 4: a bold name on basketball reference. This should be something 439 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 4: that is actually honored. You're supposed to score points to 440 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 4: win games in basketball, so they should do something to 441 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 4: actually honor the guys who are the scoring leader. 442 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 5: So what you'd just like to see a trophy of 443 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 5: some sort or something like that. 444 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, yeah, yea mail them a patch to put 445 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 4: on their letter jacket or something like that. I don't know. 446 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 4: They got to do something. Maybe you get like a 447 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 4: little star the next year the current scoring leader guy. 448 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 4: Somebody on Twitter was suggesting that they should changed the 449 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 4: NBA logo every year whoever it leads, whoever leads the 450 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 4: league in scoring. I think that's a bit too far. 451 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 4: But you got it in something give them like like 452 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 4: a cool crown the scoring champ. I don't know what 453 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 4: it is. There's got to be something, because this is 454 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 4: exciting to actually watch two guys literally care about winning 455 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 4: the scoring title. It seems to be over most of 456 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 4: the time most seasons, right like Harden will be way 457 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 4: ahead or Kevin Durant was way ahead back in the day. 458 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 4: But when it comes to a race like this, it's 459 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 4: actually fun to watch. 460 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 6: Totally. I agree with it, at least a trophy of 461 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 6: some sort. I even saw that somebody that I had 462 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 6: never heard of won the Silver Slugger at his position 463 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 6: last year, and I've already forgotten his name because I 464 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 6: forget most of my baseball facts. But that's an award 465 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 6: for every position in baseball, where you know, the best 466 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 6: hitting catcher gets his Silver Sluggers in every either league too, 467 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 6: are there two silver Sluggers at every position? 468 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 4: Clue that's a good question. 469 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 6: It is. 470 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 5: But anyway, there's like you think a catcher in the 471 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 5: National League and a catcher in the American League get 472 00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 5: the Silver Slugger Award for being the best hitter at 473 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 5: their position. 474 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 6: Baby, maybe, yeah, it's true. 475 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 5: True, yea, Well, that's a lot of awards. 476 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 2: Awards the Molina brothers, isn't it. 477 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 6: Like they're not hitters, man, they're not hitters. They're defenders. 478 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 6: But the catches, like the catchers, yeah, good hitting, they're 479 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 6: not great hitting catchers. They're in there to block balls, 480 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 6: the call games. 481 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 5: The old gloves there, that's for defense. 482 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 6: Yeah, silver Slugger, But yeah, somebody give Steph the frickin' 483 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 6: award because watching those forty nine points on Saturday, that 484 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 6: was phenomenal. Eleven threes that he hit, five of them 485 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 6: were from thirty feet plus, like he was just stepping back, 486 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 6: so almost half his threes were at thirty feet and 487 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 6: they were just going down. Like Lee was, you know, 488 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 6: joking that he could have scored one hundred that night. 489 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 6: He just had it going. And yeah, the Lakers defenders, like, 490 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 6: if they're playing him, they're not gonna let that happen. 491 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 6: And Okay, see was letting shots go. But yeah, they're 492 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 6: letting a guy shoot from five feet behind the line. 493 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 6: It's because you know, you kind of have to, you know, 494 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 6: start your defense somewhere. If you're gonna guard from thirty 495 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 6: plus feet, he is gonna he is gonna be able 496 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 6: to score from two point line. He is you know, 497 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 6: has adapted that part of his game, so he's lethal 498 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 6: on both sides and both parts of the floor. But man, 499 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 6: watching that that was something like he had, you know, 500 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 6: one corner three and then everything else, everything else, above 501 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 6: the break and beyond. I mean, they were so far. 502 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 5: Out, Trey, who's your winner of the NBA Weekend? 503 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 4: Well, there was just one game over the weekend for 504 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 4: the Grizzlies, but Yonis Valentiunas had it circled on his calendar. 505 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 4: JD rolled that beautiful beef footage. 506 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 3: Fiona's Valentiunis had twenty one rebounds. That's a lot of 507 00:21:46,160 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 3: roast beef. Revenge is a dish best served, no dougs. 508 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 4: We love roast beef, which is rebounds.

Fourth beef of the season for Yonis 510 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 4: Valentinnis tied for the second most more importantly, however, his 511 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 4: second big beef of the season against the Raptors, I 512 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 4: Love It. Toronto decided not to give him a ring, 513 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: so Yonas said, I'm getting twenty plus boards on you 514 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 4: every time we play I Love It. A petty beef 515 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 4: also got a great quote from Nick Nurse talking about 516 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 4: Yonas Valentuni's nurse tells a story.

Quote Nick Nurse, 520 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 4: I have never seen a guy so happy when he 521 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 4: was reeling in a fish, so intense, so excited. I 522 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 4: just told them next year, when we're out on the floor, 523 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you to rebound like it's a fish. 524 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you to rebound like it's a fish. 525 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 4: Go out there, rip that lip right out of the water. 526 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 4: Unfortunately for Nick Nurse, it has totally backfired. Yes, they 527 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,120 Speaker 4: got the title, but now they're having to suffer through 528 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 4: Yonas Valancunas beefing in their faces every single time the 529 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 4: two of them meet in a game. 530 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 5: Can you buy onion rings at Arby's, I would assume yes, yes, yeah, 531 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:36,159 Speaker 5: I mean I'm assuming no rings, championship rings, but but 532 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 5: a bunch of Arby's onion rings if you kept playing 533 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 5: in there. 534 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right, that's a good question. 535 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 6: Curly fries definitely are the prize possession, just like yonis 536 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 6: grabbing a fish, Arby's best thing as a side curly 537 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 6: fries for sure.

Somebodys saying onion pedals like they have the Bloomer. 545 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 4: Interesting, it looks like in Army's Canada has steakhouse onion rings. 546 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 4: Maybe here in the United States it's just pedals. 547 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 5: What wow, Wow, that's weird. 548 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, somebody go to a Canadian Army's and check you. 549 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 5: Maybe this is the whole point. 550 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 4: Yonas valent Gnus is like, I want my titles. The 551 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 4: pedals are going to be delivered. 552 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 5: Okay, So do you have the leaderboard right? Now for 553 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 5: Big Beef. So who still has it?

Still 558 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 5: a week to decide this. If somebody wants to go 559 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 5: get does it? 560 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 2: Whoa does this carry over to the playoffside try? I 561 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 2: guess it does? I mean, why not? 562 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 4: I think it Scott because Bill Russell has one of 563 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 4: the all time great beef games. He had like a 564 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 4: forty one rebound game and that came in Game seven 565 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 4: of the finals. So gotta go deep. 566 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 5: Okay, Okay, this will continue in the playoffs. 567 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 3: All right. 568 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 5: I got a few other winners from the weekend.

Uh, perhaps garbage is 575 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 4: coming by, Not sure, but uh we had something with 576 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 4: an overdrive here. 577 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, out in the parking lot. 578 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: I don't know what's going on. 579 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 5: What's a little world telling you said, Russell Westbrook Ley, 580 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 5: He's one of my winners of the weekend for sure. 581 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 5: That Saturday game was amazing. It's the wizards fifteenth win 582 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 5: in their last nineteen games. He goes for thirty three 583 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 5: points and nineteen boards, fifteen assists, career triple double one 584 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 5: eighty one. He's tied with Oscar Robertson. He will set 585 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 5: it tonight here in Atlanta. There is no doubt down 586 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 5: at the Fortress. I'll go back to you, mister Vegas TK. 587 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 5: What's the like, what's the over under of minutes into 588 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 5: this game he sets it? 589 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 3: No, beal? 590 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 5: I mean, does he do it in the first half? 591 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 4: Hell? 592 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 5: Does he do it in the first quarter which he's 593 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 5: probably almost done before? Interesting, it's gonna be first half. 594 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 4: I think I think I'll have it, babah Okay, okay, 595 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 4: I'll go second half. I think it happens in the 596 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 4: second half. In the third quarter. Will they stop the game? 597 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 4: That's the question, Skinzy. Will they stop the game? And 598 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 4: should we go? We were there to see Vince Carter's 599 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 4: twenty five thousandth career point. We could be there to 600 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 4: see the record breaking Russell westbrook triple double. 601 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not gonna go, but like it's crossed my mind, 602 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 5: like that's history that that to me is like a 603 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 5: cool stat that will be talked about now. People have 604 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 5: like obviously their own opinions on it and the inflation 605 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 5: of it all, just like Oscars back in the day 606 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,400 Speaker 5: with a million misshots and all that wasn't that impressive, 607 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 5: blah blah blah. Who cares. It's still awesome that somebody's 608 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 5: gonna beat Oscar Robertson's triple double record. And we said 609 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 5: it not too long ago. I forgot the question was, 610 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 5: But like it'll be the first thing you think of 611 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 5: with Westbrook, like when he's talked about twenty thirty, forty 612 00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 5: years from now, it'll be like, oh, yeah, the triple 613 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 5: double basically, unless you know, you'll get your Luka Dancic 614 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 5: or somebody else ends up somehow passing Russell Westbrook because 615 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 5: Fred Katz had some crazy stats about this five years ago. 616 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 5: Westbrook only I throw that in air quotes, had thirty 617 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,159 Speaker 5: seven triple doubles over eight NBA seasons, and now here 618 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 5: he is at one eighty one. That was five years ago. 619 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 5: Somebody's racked up in these last five years and this 620 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 5: one blew my mind again. Fred Katz on the Boulevard quote, 621 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 5: the player who is now the NBA's co leader in 622 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 5: triple doubles has played thirteen pro seasons, yet more than 623 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 5: eleven percent of his triple doubles have come in the 624 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 5: last six weeks. I thought it was a typo No. 625 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 5: In the last six weeks, eleven percent of this guy's 626 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 5: triple doubles have come. That is an unbelievable statistic there 627 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 5: from Kats and Yeah Lee, he hit the game winning 628 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 5: free throws in overtime in a huge game. They're up 629 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,479 Speaker 5: to ninth now the Wizards are, and then he blocked 630 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 5: Karris Lavert's three at the buzzer there, which was pretty 631 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 5: damn cool too. Ah Man, I love it. We've talked 632 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 5: about Westbrook for so long on this show to get 633 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 5: a task, especially back we even win the Basketball Jones days. 634 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 5: It's just funny to see people like they just flip 635 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 5: flop on Russell Westbrook from like it feels like game 636 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 5: to game, week to week, month to month, season to season, 637 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 5: of like your opinion on him, but this is special. 638 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 5: We've always, I feel like, with this show been pro Westbrook, 639 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 5: maybe more than some and he's got his limitations. Don't 640 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 5: get me wrong, he gets caught up in weird like 641 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 5: pissing contest in games. Lee, I know you've brought that 642 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 5: up before. He makes questionable choices at the end of 643 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 5: games at times you're like, well, well that's a weird 644 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 5: shot to take. But my god, does the guy just 645 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 5: play harder than everybody else out there every game? I mean, 646 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 5: that's it. That's like, that'll be the second thing I 647 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 5: think of when I think of Westbrook after the triple 648 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 5: double crown. It's like, oh, yeah, that guy played harder 649 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 5: than anybody. He just did. And again, he made some 650 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 5: dumb mistakes at times, but my god, you can't can't 651 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 5: discredit his effort lely, that's for what that's for. 652 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 2: Damn sure, no, man, especially because he was so zillient 653 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 2: in his early career, like he didn't miss a game, 654 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 2: remember from high school, college, in the NBA, and then 655 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 2: I think it was when Patrick Beverley sort of collided 656 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 2: into him. That was when that sort of he first 657 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 2: missed games. And then in the last few years, you know, 658 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 2: even this season, you know, he wasn't playing back to 659 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 2: backs early on because of the load management, so you 660 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 2: wondered if that would perhaps just slow down, you know, 661 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 2: the way that he chased after the rebounds and ran 662 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 2: the ball up the court. But instead it's working for 663 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 2: him because he looks so energetic, like that block shot 664 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 2: on Saturday night at the end of overtime. He's put 665 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 2: up a huge game, and he's still had the energy 666 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 2: to not just block the shot, but then cheer and 667 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 2: celebrate afterwards like he's incredible like that, and yeah, he's Look, 668 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 2: he's not a perfect player, of course, and his biggest 669 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 2: weakness in the past has been basically teams have said, 670 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: will will allow you to sort of beat yourself by 671 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 2: taking bad shots and taking these you know, these silly 672 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 2: sort of pissing contests he gets into against the opponents. 673 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 2: But you just cannot discredit how hard he works and 674 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 2: how motivated it is to go out there, because you know, yes, 675 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 2: he has his dad pats of times, but he's still 676 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 2: he's at an incredibly high level with that energy every 677 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 2: single night, and he goes out there and you know, 678 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 2: tries to win, and he puts it all on the line. 679 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 2: So that ultimately is what it comes down to, is 680 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 2: the fact that you know he's out there competing and 681 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: doing everything he can to win. At times it's backfight 682 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 2: on him, but for the most part, he's doing everything 683 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 2: he can for his team and you have to admire 684 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 2: and respect that about him. 685 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, Tess, you think he's a first half triple double 686 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 5: tonight or a second half here versus the looks. 687 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I think he's going to go for it 688 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 6: real hard tonight. Yeah, so it'll probably happen in the 689 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 6: first half. Yeah, especially with you know, him and Howell 690 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 6: Netto will be the only ball handlers without Brad in 691 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 6: there with Otbil, Yeah, I think it's his. 692 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 5: And what do you think they'll do. You think they 693 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 5: stopped the game? 694 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 6: I don't think so. Just because we're talking about it, 695 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 6: I don't think so. Like, I just can't think of 696 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 6: another scenario where it really happens on a list like this, 697 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 6: Like we talked about the scoring records, and yeah, they 698 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 6: stopped it for Kobe when he passed MJ. But yeah, 699 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 6: I mean, it is history. 700 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 5: But I don't know. 701 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 6: I lean no, I guess I don't know why. 702 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 5: I think they I think they absolutely should. I'm not saying, yeah, 703 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 5: we're taking a twenty minute break here, but there should 704 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 5: be a little video package that the NBA either whips 705 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 5: together or something that it's celebrated right there in the 706 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 5: moment or in the first time out. I guess after 707 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 5: he acquires the ten three point sist or whatever, for sure. 708 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 6: Freddy Kats will be celebrating it all along. Fred Katz, 709 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 6: that guy's got every single stat in the book. Him 710 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 6: and David Aldridge. A couple articles on Russ making it 711 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 6: happen on Saturday Night, really good reads, So so fallow 712 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 6: Freddy Katz on the Bulevard. 713 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 5: Oh god, I can't wait for the magic Johnson tweet 714 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 5: about it percent coming right. 715 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna list every triple double Russell Russe 716 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,479 Speaker 4: Busbrook has had anyway, Yeah, triple double long this day 717 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 4: and this day and this day, all right. Also great 718 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 4: in that Fred Katz article, or actually this one might 719 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 4: have been in David Aldridge, i'd I remember. I was 720 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: just reading about triple doubles. The previous Wizard Slash Bullets 721 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 4: record for triple doubles was fifteen. That was our short 722 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 4: lived record once Westbrook took over there in Washington. 723 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 6: No, Darryl Walker, Yeah yeah, not for career triple doubles, 724 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 6: not just in one season ye career. So yeah, Darryl Walker, 725 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,240 Speaker 6: former Raptors head coach fifteen. 726 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, right, all right, another Winter of the weekend til 727 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 5: the Knicks. I want to show them some love. They 728 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 5: always come up here on Mondays. Now, though, huge win 729 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 5: on Sunday against Clippers at the Staples Center, and it 730 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 5: allowed the Knicks to remain in fourth place in the 731 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 5: East by themselves. They're one game ahead of the Hawks, 732 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 5: and the Heat could also give the Minamy Heat a 733 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 5: winner of the weekend, but I think we'll do the 734 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 5: opposite and shot on the Beantown Boys in a second here. 735 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 5: But this was maybe the nixt best winner of the season. 736 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 5: And I say that because the Knicks usually do not 737 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 5: play all that well. When Julius Randall struggles and they 738 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 5: were throwing doubles at him, he didn't have any incredible 739 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 5: game scoring the ball. He did everything else rebounding and 740 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 5: setting up guy and stuff like that. But it was 741 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 5: Derreck Rose off the bench ley twenty five, Reggie Bullock 742 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 5: ated twenty four, and they get this victory. Clips came 743 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 5: made it closer when Kawhi got back in there, and 744 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 5: it was like Kawhi and Paul George Shore they're going 745 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 5: just basically trading buckets. But the Knicks man holding on 746 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 5: for dear life here to that fourth seed, and they, 747 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 5: of course, I think need it to advance to the 748 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 5: second round. I think they need home court advantage against 749 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 5: like a Hawks or a Heat or whoever. And they 750 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 5: definitely don't want to be the sixth seed or something 751 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 5: like that, slipping all the way down there. And I 752 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 5: don't like their chances then to come out of her 753 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 5: first round. But they are just playing so damn tough. 754 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 5: And again Derek Rose, like we just keep talking about 755 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 5: these guys like Westbrook's super late into his career, and 756 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,239 Speaker 5: now here's Rose hitting pull ups and floaters and get 757 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 5: into the rim, hit two big threes in the fourth 758 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 5: there to help spent the victory for the Knick. So 759 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 5: they're a winner of the weekend for me. People sort 760 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 5: of keep, you know, you keep doubting them, or you 761 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 5: keep waiting for them to sort of like fall back 762 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,479 Speaker 5: to Earth, and they just sort of keep gritting out 763 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 5: these winds on their tips there, I guess, helping his 764 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 5: chances for which the year probably still goes to Quin 765 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 5: Snader or Monty Williams. But my god, I can't wait 766 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 5: to have the Knicks in the playoffs. I just really can't. 767 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm excited that they'll be playing again like 768 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 5: a Hawks or a Heat or somebody in the first round. 769 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 5: What do you think a d Rose told legally anything that? 770 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, talking about you know, we've said, said Nate 771 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 2: McMillan making a charge for Coach of the Year. I mean, 772 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 2: Derek Rose, if he was playing like this the entire season, 773 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 2: he would be a lock for six man. I think 774 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 2: he probably still gets a handful of votes too, you know, 775 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 2: because Jordan Clarkson has cooled off and Rose is not 776 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: just scoring like he's he's running that offense and he's 777 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 2: very mixing up his game like because he's never been 778 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: a great shooter of the ball, but now he's so 779 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 2: much more confident in that mid range. And you know, 780 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 2: you talk about we're sort of waiting for the Knicks 781 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 2: to fall off because there's been a tough road trip. 782 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 2: They had Denver and Phoenix and they've got the Lakers next, 783 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 2: so they're not done. 784 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 5: Three and two on this six key belt wows which 785 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 5: is really. 786 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: Good of course. 787 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's a that's a huge bonus for them 788 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,919 Speaker 2: to go back at that minimum five hundred, potentially better 789 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 2: than that, although you know, I think I think there's 790 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 2: people saying as well that Lebron is definitely coming back 791 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 2: tomorrow night against the against the Knicks. So but yeah, 792 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 2: it's it's quite incredible because Derek Rowse was in Detroit 793 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 2: this season and it was just like a complete waste. 794 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 2: He went back to the Knicks, he went back to Tibbs, 795 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 2: and it's like, Wow, this is what Tis does. He 796 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 2: brings back these guys. But he's really embraced that role 797 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 2: and he's you know, he's accepted that he's no longer 798 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: a starting point guard in this league. He's a bench 799 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 2: player and he's really playing well in that role. So, 800 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 2: you know, good on him. 801 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 5: Final one here. I know this is about usually like 802 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 5: the weekend we just had that we sort of designate 803 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 5: a winner to or a loser, but I want to 804 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 5: give a winner of the weekend to this coming weekend, 805 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 5: to Sunday. Yeah, I'm looking ahead, guys, because Sham's was tweeting. Now, 806 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 5: I don't know if this is official from the NBA yet, 807 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 5: but Seam says for the NBA's final day of the 808 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 5: regular season on May sixteenth, that's a Sunday, all thirty teams, 809 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 5: there will be fifteen games will be played in the afternoon, 810 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 5: starting between twelve and three thirty pm Eastern t K. 811 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 5: Every team will be playing in this like, you know, 812 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 5: three and a half hour window here. So there's no 813 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 5: funny business, right when it comes to funny business, when 814 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 5: it comes to the races and the play ins and 815 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 5: who's in, who's out, who's your opponent, stuff like that. 816 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:15,479 Speaker 5: In theory that at least diminishes some weird results after 817 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 5: the fact if you already know what happened in a 818 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 5: game prior, you know what I'm getting. 819 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 4: At here, Yeah, exactly right, And I don't know. I 820 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 4: was going through the schedule looking at literally where these 821 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 4: teams are going to be playing geographically, to break down 822 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 4: their time zones. We might see some weird results on 823 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 4: that very last day because the West Coast teams are 824 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 4: going to be starting early early, We're talking twelve to 825 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 4: thirty local time on a Sunday at the latest for 826 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 4: some of these teams that are playing on the West Coast. 827 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 4: Those could be weird games, especially, you know, if some 828 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 4: sort of you know, if a four or five seed 829 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 4: has already decided. Who are they rolling out there rolling 830 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 4: out of bed? Hey go play some basketball? Why not? 831 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 4: But yeah, it'll make for an exciting weekend on Saturday 832 00:36:59,200 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 4: and Sunday, no doubt. 833 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, Lee, Don't they do this stuff in like the 834 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 5: Premier League and stuff like that when it comes to 835 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 5: these important last games, right. 836 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the last day of the season is usually everyone 837 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 2: kicks off at three o'clock prest and so that you 838 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 2: can't do it. But I think the NBA tends to 839 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,439 Speaker 2: do this sort of on the last day. 840 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 5: This Wednesday night. Yeah, when it usually is an last season, 841 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 5: there are sil things. Yeah, I think it'll because it's 842 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 5: on this Sunday in the afternoon, we'll make this pretty 843 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 5: pretty wild. 844 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, So it's just going to be interesting to see, 845 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 2: you know, which teams are like, well, we can't move 846 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 2: up or down and we're resting. And as we sort 847 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 2: of talked about earlier, if you've got a week off anyway, 848 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 2: is there any point in wrestling? You just want to 849 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: keep your guys playing together. So it's pretty exciting. I mean, 850 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 2: this is kind of this is good for the NBA 851 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 2: that they have this sort of format at the end 852 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 2: on the on a Sunday, and we know that all 853 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 2: sorts of things could change in the standings, and I 854 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 2: think it's going to be a fun day. 855 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll throw this up right now. Here's the playoff 856 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 5: picture as of Monday morning. Nothing had changed from Sunday. 857 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 5: I've been tweeting this out every morning here just to 858 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 5: give the like sort of the call's notes if you will, well, 859 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 5: you guys call them Cohle's notes. I can ever remembers 860 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 5: that spark notes, perhaps, yes, that's right, but here it is. 861 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 5: We're showing you the playoff picture, including the play in 862 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,360 Speaker 5: tournament teams right now. In the matchups you see the 863 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 5: Wizards there ahead of the Pacers, which is wild, and 864 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 5: a few of the other teams which we're going to 865 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 5: address in a second. 866 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 4: Here. 867 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 5: Losers of the weekend, and who wants to get us started, 868 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 5: Trey won don't we go with you first? Where you 869 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 5: want to go? 870 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? 871 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 4: I think I'm a good place to start, because it 872 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 4: was an ugly weekend for the Beantown Boys. They went 873 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 4: oh and two over the weekend, and both of the 874 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,280 Speaker 4: losses were their own brand of disappointing. They got smoked 875 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 4: by the Bulls on Friday night, you're probably wondering, why 876 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 4: aren't the Bulls winners of the weekend. They did go 877 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 4: to to oh make it a hard playoff push, But 878 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,280 Speaker 4: I'm waiting for them to be winners of the weekend, 879 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 4: for the Bulls to be back till they finally locked 880 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 4: down that elusive four game win streak. They've won three 881 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 4: in a row, haven't won four in a row since 882 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 4: the seventeen to eighteen season. 883 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 2: But they got the netsuck dues. 884 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 3: They can take them down. 885 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 4: It'll be four straight. Nonetheless, let's talk about the being 886 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 4: town boys. They did get beat by the Bulls on Friday, 887 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 4: and I'm not sure which is worse. They gave up 888 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty one points and they scored ninety nine. 889 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 4: Either one of those is a bad matchup for the 890 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 4: Celtics against the Bulls. Balls have been better on defense 891 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,120 Speaker 4: than you probably think this year. But the Celtics scored 892 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 4: fifty points between Kemba, Walker and Evan Fournier on Friday. 893 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 4: The rest of Boston went for forty nine. Jason Tatum 894 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 4: three of nineteen for nine points in the loss. Kemba 895 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 4: made six threes. The rest of Boston went five of 896 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 4: twenty six This was ugly. This was a bad loss 897 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 4: for the Celtics, but they came into that game Friday 898 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 4: in sixth place ahead of Miami for the play in 899 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 4: The loss to the Bulls pushes being town boys back 900 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 4: to number seven, but they got the Heat on Sunday, 901 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 4: all good chance to get out of the play in 902 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 4: tournament win the season tiebreaker over Miami. Instead, Boston gave 903 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,959 Speaker 4: up seventy nine points in the first half to the Heat. 904 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 4: Heat are a bottom ten offensive team, but they caught 905 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 4: fire hit eleven threes in the first half. The Celtics 906 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 4: no juice, no energy. They allowed seventy or more points 907 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 4: and a half three times over their past five games. 908 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 4: Portland had seventy one, the Blazers had seventy seven, and 909 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 4: of course Miami seventy nine. On Sunday, Boston made it 910 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 4: interesting in the second half by the deficit just a 911 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: little bit too big, so Miami takes the win and 912 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 4: sixth place and ties things up in the season series. 913 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 4: Heat now have a two game lead over Boston for 914 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 4: sixth place in the Eastern Conference. They play again tomorrow 915 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 4: to determine who gets the tie breaker. That's a must 916 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 4: win game for Boston. If they're hoping to get out 917 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 4: of the play in tournament, and they need to get 918 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 4: out of the play in tournament, because it would not 919 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 4: be surprising me to see the Celtics finish seventh, have 920 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 4: two straight up stinkers in the play in tournament, they 921 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 4: don't even make the playoffs. This team has been so 922 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 4: inconsistent this year. They just don't have the effort every 923 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 4: single night. They don't have the personnel to really turn 924 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,399 Speaker 4: things up defensively. It doesn't feel like Robert Williams missed 925 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 4: the second half of last night yesterday's game with a 926 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 4: turf toe injury. I think he's almost their most important player, 927 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 4: just because he's somebody that can hold it down in 928 00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 4: the middle. A little bit. But an ugly weekend for 929 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 4: the Celtics and it could get worse in the next 930 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 4: week and a half. 931 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 5: Here, Yeah, Tess, what do you think about the Bean 932 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 5: Town boys? Like TK said, I mean, holy crap, what 933 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 5: an up and down season. Like we we're like, oh, 934 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 5: they're garbage, and they sort of get a piece it together. 935 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 5: We're like, okay, they're back here they come then now 936 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 5: just the opposite again. They are playing poorly at the 937 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 5: wrong time. 938 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 6: I'll never say that a team needs more than seventy 939 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 6: two games to get it together. But if there is 940 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 6: a team, it's the Boston Celtics. They need ten more 941 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 6: games on the schedule to try and figure it out 942 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 6: because the way they're looking, there's no chance that they 943 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 6: survive even the play in tournament. I just don't think 944 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 6: that there's any real hope. And they look particularly bad 945 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 6: against the Miami Heat Sunday and then again tomorrow when 946 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 6: they play them on Tuesday, because the Heat just moves 947 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 6: so much without the ball, and the Celtics just don't 948 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 6: have it within them to cover the three point line 949 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 6: like that, and the Heat are looking like bit like 950 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 6: that team that was in the bubble last year that 951 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 6: had all that movement, all the weapons, and the Celtics says, 952 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,520 Speaker 6: it's not good watching them play that kind of team. 953 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 6: And you know, there's lots of excuses, lots of reasons 954 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 6: and excuses for the Celtics not to be good this season, 955 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 6: but yeah, the effort is not a reason. Daniel Tice 956 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 6: leaving actually did hurt them. Yeah, Now, Robert Williams out, 957 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 6: they're getting thinner and the effort isn't getting any better, 958 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 6: and Jalen Brown not being one hundred percent so starting 959 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 6: to lose faith in all the bean town boys and 960 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 6: everything being town related right now. 961 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 5: It's been a rough week for Beans. I was going 962 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 5: to say, too, you can make the Bucks almost a 963 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 5: loser of the week end lately, just because the Heat 964 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 5: are up to sixth now and look like they might 965 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 5: be staying there, and it's like, oh my god, Milwaukee 966 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 5: is a third seed right now. Now, still there's a 967 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 5: ton of movement because he can still go up boxing 968 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 5: theory could still go up and maybe catch the nets 969 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 5: for a second. But I mean you talk about like 970 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 5: facing your demons right away there for the Milwaukee Bucks, 971 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 5: like maybe it's a good thing. Maybe it's like, okay, well, 972 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 5: if we are actually a title contender, we got to 973 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 5: make up for what happened last year and just take 974 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 5: care of business against the Heat. But not a great matchup. 975 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 5: That's that's the last team I think Milwaukee would want 976 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 5: to face. Of course. 977 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. 978 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 2: Well, and they actually have one more regular season game 979 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 2: two in Milwaukee, the Heat and the Bucks, so that 980 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: one will be interesting to see if if the Bucks decide, well, 981 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 2: we're not going to play our guys, and just like 982 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 2: we don't want to reveal our hand because yeah, you 983 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 2: know that, jim you're saying. 984 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 5: They may want to help the Heat even move up 985 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 5: in the c Yes. 986 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,680 Speaker 2: Exactly, it's true to try to avoid them. Because remember 987 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 2: last week that clip we had of Jimmy Butler when 988 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 2: it was Ira Winderman sort of saying it's a tough schedule, 989 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:41,959 Speaker 2: and you know, Jimmy's classically that's tough for you because 990 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 2: he knows the mind games can really become a factor 991 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 2: against the team that they really punked last season in 992 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 2: the playoffs. So that's a fascinating matchup potential we have there. 993 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 2: I hope we get it. Actually, I'd like to see it. 994 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 2: I'd like to because you want to see the Bucks. 995 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 2: You want to see them actually, you know, go into 996 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 2: that battle and say like we are a better team 997 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: last year and not be afraid of but not try 998 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 2: to avoid it. So a little bit of shoffling to 999 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 2: do here. But yeah, the Heat, Jimmy Butler is this 1000 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 2: is his time where he's like, great, I can just 1001 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 2: be a real annoying guy to everybody. 1002 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 5: But he was getting into it current Anthony Towns exactly. 1003 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: Yea, you know he but he knows that that that's 1004 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 2: how he can give himself a little bit of an 1005 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 2: advantage if they if there is a talent gap between 1006 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 2: the two teams, because he loves the mind games and 1007 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 2: he loves to get into those scraps. And we know 1008 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 2: in the playoffs it's a different game. It's a grinder 1009 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 2: out game. It's it's it's a much more Miami hit 1010 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 2: style of basketball where you have to grind out victories, 1011 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,480 Speaker 2: and Jimmy loves that more than anybody else. 1012 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 5: Just wants to work Horde and be the man. 1013 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 2: Lee. 1014 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 5: Who's your winner of the weekend or a loser of 1015 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 5: the week. Excuse me, my loser weekend. 1016 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 2: There's a week one for sure, no doubt about it. 1017 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 2: So I put the Lakers in there because I thought 1018 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 2: that game was in Phoenix last night. I thought, oh, 1019 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: the Son's going to smoke him out there last night, 1020 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:57,839 Speaker 2: but they didn't. So I had to change that one, 1021 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 2: and I went with the Hornets because you. 1022 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 4: Had a pre Louvers on location. 1023 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,240 Speaker 5: It's not like we're doing this at them on Monday 1024 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 5: morning and all of Monday morning. That's what you need 1025 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 5: to know the man. 1026 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 2: But the Blazers, you know, they lust to the Blazers 1027 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 2: and they would have lust to Phoenix. And anyway, anyway, 1028 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 2: the Hornets say last night, look they're shorthanded right now, 1029 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 2: no Gordon Hayward, steal Myers Bridges is out and DeVante 1030 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:27,839 Speaker 2: Graham's out. And they were playing against the Pelicans, who 1031 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 2: though they're even more shorthanded. They're no Zion, no Brandon 1032 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 2: Ingram and no Steven Adams. And the Hornets basically led 1033 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 2: this game up until the end. And it was a 1034 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. It was Jackson, Hayes and James Johnson who 1035 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 2: really put it to the Hornets. The Hornets couldn't score. 1036 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,320 Speaker 2: They had fourteen points in that fourth quarter and the 1037 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 2: Pelicans scored twenty three. And again it wasn't as though 1038 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 2: like someone just caught fire and was hitting threes and 1039 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 2: the Hornets went like just super rice cold. It was 1040 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 2: just hustle plays from the big guys. And you know, 1041 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 2: so that's a that's a costly lass. Again, with the 1042 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 2: Celtics losing, the Hornets could have just you know, they 1043 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 2: need home court advantage. If they are in that plane tornent, 1044 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 2: which they're going to be, they're not going to I 1045 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 2: don't think they can really get out of that situation. No, 1046 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 2: they can't be four games back in the heat. So 1047 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 2: you know that that's a crucial sort of you know, 1048 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 2: it's a blown save. Can I say that that's a 1049 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 2: fastball term one? Yeah, because they. 1050 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 4: Really just all leads relief man. 1051 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 2: They really just had to run out, just had to 1052 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 2: run smith. What's the guy from the Yankees, the famous guy, 1053 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 2: not Andy Pettitt's Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, anyway, isn't he 1054 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 2: the same guys? Anyway? To the point being though that 1055 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 2: you know, this was one that the Hornets like, you 1056 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 2: just got to close this game out and they couldn't 1057 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,880 Speaker 2: do it. But the good news is Terry Roseier hit 1058 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 2: a garbage time three, gave himself a career high forty 1059 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 2: three points, gives me up one point in the stupidest 1060 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,479 Speaker 2: bet that's all of all time against Skeets by taking 1061 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 2: the league by one point. I have Tim Hardaway Junior there. 1062 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, there you go, that's my loser. It was 1063 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 2: more just like that's that's it's honestly, it's been like 1064 00:47:10,680 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 2: three or four times an hours on Sunday night, got 1065 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 2: my loser all winner and then pull him the next morning. 1066 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 5: Maybe stop doing that, Maybe just trying to get a 1067 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 5: head start on the day. 1068 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 2: Monday morning's got kids going back to school, like another one. 1069 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 2: I'm like, all right if I've got a little a 1070 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 2: little booster there. 1071 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 6: But anyway, you're bet is who's going to score fifty first? Right? 1072 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:29,239 Speaker 1: No? 1073 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 5: No, we switched it to say between Tim Moroway Junior 1074 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 5: and Terry Rozier who would just have the highest scoring game. 1075 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 5: But we we made sure there was like a benchmark. 1076 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 5: It had to be like, what do we say, thirty five. 1077 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 2: Plus thirty five? 1078 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, and so Timorrow Junior goes for forty two without 1079 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 5: last week or yeah, I guess it was, yeah, and yeah, 1080 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 5: Terry Rozier is at forty okay, great game and then 1081 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,040 Speaker 5: hits a stupid pointless three late to give him forty three. 1082 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 5: And now I'm trailing you. 1083 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 2: This but well, I'll say one thing. At one point 1084 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 2: in this game was in the third quarter he had 1085 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,080 Speaker 2: a breakaway steal but they called a foul so they 1086 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:04,840 Speaker 2: stopped to play that would have given him a certain 1087 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 2: two points because there was no one ahead of him. 1088 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 2: And then on the next play, I think it was PJ. 1089 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 2: Washington was cooled for an offensive oult as he hit 1090 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,359 Speaker 2: a three, so that one got waved off as well, 1091 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 2: So I think in the end I deserve that three 1092 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 2: corner in garbage time. 1093 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:19,800 Speaker 5: Hey, I still got a couple of games left with 1094 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 5: He's averaging like twenty seven per game here over the 1095 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 5: last couple bit a couple of games, so I got 1096 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 5: faith that he can still go. Hell, he's going to 1097 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,359 Speaker 5: drop a fifty he watched listen. 1098 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 2: We can keep it going into the playoffs too. I mean, 1099 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 2: you know, like they're both going to be for a 1100 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 2: few weeks a game. 1101 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 5: We'll keep it going to the playoffs. I like that's 1102 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 5: better for me, if anything, because I'll probably get some 1103 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 5: more chances. There's some more bites out the apple there, Skates. 1104 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 6: You hope I lose my bet with four Morning Poops 1105 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 6: in the stream team that Luka Doncic won't be suspended 1106 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 6: for another game. I don't think he'll be suspended. I 1107 00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:52,919 Speaker 6: don't think he'll get a sixteenth tech. But if he does, 1108 00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 6: as four Morning Poops has said, then Tim Hardaway gets 1109 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 6: a nice shot because he's had great games. He had 1110 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 6: his forty two and was out. 1111 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,640 Speaker 5: Right, yeah that's that's yeah, that's right. Actually, well let's 1112 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,359 Speaker 5: go to Luca next year. I'll go and then task 1113 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 5: you can wrap up our losers of the weekend because 1114 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,320 Speaker 5: you got a good one there in Zion. But Luca 1115 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 5: got to get a lose the weekend. I mean lucas 1116 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 5: a new temper boy. Yeah, temper Luca. If you didn't 1117 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 5: see it, he got ejected on the weekend Sunday's game 1118 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 5: for just like straight up throwing a punch to the 1119 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 5: growing area there of calling Sexton, Uh, here's a big strike. 1120 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:33,920 Speaker 3: Oh now yeah in his eyes. 1121 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 5: He fortunately for Sexton, Uh did him didn't hit him 1122 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 5: like directly on the tip there or anything like that, 1123 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 5: because that was like insane because he like he hits 1124 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 5: them more to the side, because Sexton doesn't really react 1125 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 5: unless he's got a jock strap on or something I 1126 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 5: don't know about. But anyway, Luca ejected early in the 1127 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 5: third quarter, uh for that correctly determined flagman foul too, 1128 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 5: Like you can't do that. I will say Sexton didn't 1129 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 5: believe it was malicious because he did the whole like 1130 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,280 Speaker 5: it was one of those box out plays. And usually 1131 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 5: when there's like that hand checking and pushing you punch 1132 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 5: down or you sort of swing down like get the 1133 00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 5: other guy's hand off you because Sexton like, definitely, of 1134 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 5: course bodies him up there, and it just hit him 1135 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 5: a little closer to the groin than maybe he had hoped. 1136 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 5: But still pretty pretty violent swing there, TK. You always 1137 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 5: get upset, and rightfully so when guys are going for 1138 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 5: the bulls for the manscaped area, and Luka did again, 1139 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 5: even if Sexton doesn't think it was malicious, like pretty 1140 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 5: damn crazy there. And luckily for tasks, the flag grant 1141 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 5: too does not count towards the technical fares, so also 1142 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:38,959 Speaker 5: that's big. He's still had fifteen technical fouls. One shit, 1143 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 5: that automatic one game suspension. What did you think, tike it? 1144 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 4: Well, Skeets, You know I'm always wearing a cup. 1145 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I just have to get prepared. 1146 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,840 Speaker 4: But but I don't know. This looked like a straight 1147 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,880 Speaker 4: up rebound chop to me. Both of the Donk and 1148 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 4: the sex thought it was fine after where it's say, yeah, 1149 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 4: he was just chopping at me. Unfortunately he followed through 1150 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 4: hit me in the mon's pubis so I think this 1151 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 4: is the right call. That is a malicious strike. You 1152 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,839 Speaker 4: probably didn't end exactly where Doncic wanted it to end, 1153 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 4: but yikes, this is like God, this is up there 1154 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 4: for me with Nick Batoom and Juan Carlos Navarro for 1155 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,919 Speaker 4: the most fierce looking nut punch that we've ever seen. 1156 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 4: Because in that one with Batoum, he's like going straight 1157 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,160 Speaker 4: for Navarro and the way Donk kind of stares him 1158 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 4: down after it happens, you could tell that they were 1159 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 4: tussling beforehand and he wanted to have the final word. 1160 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,840 Speaker 4: Unfortunately his final word was below the belt, so he gone. 1161 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it didn't end up mattering it Actually maybe uh, 1162 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 5: I don't know, sparked the Mavericks spit of a run 1163 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 5: after that. Actually they ended up crushing the Cavaliers Ketler's 1164 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 5: the last ten in a row, so no big surprise there. 1165 00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 5: But yeah, task you're okay, it's not a technical foul. 1166 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:52,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1167 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 5: I was wondering if four Morning Poops was like gonna 1168 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,719 Speaker 5: like challenge this somehow. It's like, hey, come on, he 1169 00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 5: got ejected, But no, you're still with the first technical fels. 1170 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,879 Speaker 6: That was a good shot right there, man. Every time 1171 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 6: I see it, and JD if you're watching on YouTube, 1172 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 6: has done a great job of of really highlighting you know, 1173 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 6: the he's it slowed down so much that you just 1174 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 6: really just see the shot and then we stop it 1175 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,400 Speaker 6: and then and then so the video really sells it, 1176 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,320 Speaker 6: I think. But he did hit him in the Amman's 1177 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 6: hump shrumpert pubis hold on the Amman's humpert pubis, Uh yeah, yeah, 1178 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 6: whatever you want to call it. And I just think 1179 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,840 Speaker 6: it's a scenario where two guards are, you know, fighting 1180 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:35,359 Speaker 6: down low, and Luca's like, come on, we don't box out, 1181 00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 6: relaxed calling get off me, we don't box out in 1182 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 6: today's NBA. But he got Yeah, I got away with 1183 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 6: one because it could have been a tech. It could 1184 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 6: have whatever you call it. Yeah, I mean really, to 1185 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,799 Speaker 6: really hurt a guy, why don't you give him two 1186 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 6: texts and a flagrant and then he could be suspended, 1187 00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:56,239 Speaker 6: lose a game worth of pay as well. It's not 1188 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:58,440 Speaker 6: not right there. I don't know why Luca had this 1189 00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:02,360 Speaker 6: the puzzled stare afterwards, like he usually does after a 1190 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 6: tech hits him, Like why was he puzzled by that? 1191 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,359 Speaker 6: I mean, I guess he didn't think he was going 1192 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 6: for the growing. He just thought he was as you 1193 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:12,520 Speaker 6: guys said, a little little swim sort of action like 1194 00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 6: get your arm off me, tyboo. 1195 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, but he caught him close enough to warrant that ejection, 1196 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 5: so he would go. But Tas is okay, all right. 1197 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 5: Tasa finished it off here though, loser the weekend. Let's 1198 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 5: talk a little Zion because this is crazy. 1199 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, we'll Lee brought up that the Pelicans came 1200 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:30,239 Speaker 6: back and won. It's totally true. They still do have 1201 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 6: a shot of making a play in tournament, although it 1202 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 6: is unlikely because mainly because Zion Williamson is injured and 1203 00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 6: he is out indefinitely after fracturing his ring finger on 1204 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 6: a play where he tried to get the ball and 1205 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 6: it didn't work out for him and he left. He 1206 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:50,800 Speaker 6: left the game briefly and came back in and so 1207 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 6: David Griffin, VP of Basketball Operations of the Pelicans, had 1208 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,800 Speaker 6: a press conference about Zion Williamson and what's going on 1209 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 6: there with the way he's being officiated, and David Griffin 1210 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:06,239 Speaker 6: said his injury was likely sort of accumulation of hits 1211 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 6: that he's taken. He's kind of ref like Shack. Nobody 1212 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 6: gives him calls and the refs have to do a 1213 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 6: better job of that went clearly. The injury happened on 1214 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 6: one single play and it was Sion Williams are trying 1215 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:18,800 Speaker 6: to go up for the ball and he ripped his 1216 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:23,160 Speaker 6: finger and a rebound attempt. So I wouldn't say it 1217 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 6: was the best timing for David Griffin to come out 1218 00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 6: and say it, like, come out and say it a 1219 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 6: month earlier when your team is trying to fight for 1220 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 6: the playoff spot. I do comment him. I do think 1221 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,920 Speaker 6: it's always an interest, the interest of a front office 1222 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:39,359 Speaker 6: to come out and say, yeah, our guy just needs 1223 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 6: to get better calls, and especially a tough guy to 1224 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 6: officiate like Zion Williamson. I'm totally in agreeance with David Griffin, 1225 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 6: but that diming. Just do it earlier and not after 1226 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 6: everybody can see with a billion cameras, even if it's 1227 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,799 Speaker 6: on a Saturday night against the Golden State Warriors. Maybe 1228 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 6: in an instance when some people aren't watching, but I 1229 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 6: was watching. I think that was a Saturday game, and 1230 00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,480 Speaker 6: it was it came against the second second game of 1231 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 6: a double header against the Golden State Warriors. Were yeah, 1232 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:10,000 Speaker 6: he ripped his finger and it wasn't the accumulation of hits, 1233 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 6: So you know, you got outed, Griff, You got outed. 1234 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:17,040 Speaker 6: But the Pelicans are still fighting and they do have 1235 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 6: a shot at making it in, but they won't have 1236 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 6: Zion brandon Ingram and Steven Adams are still banged up. 1237 00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 6: So I don't know how excited you guys would be 1238 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:29,320 Speaker 6: if or the the NBA would be hot and quite honest, honestly, 1239 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 6: if they got in over the San Antonio Spurs. I 1240 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,000 Speaker 6: know people wouldn't be excited about the Spurs either, unfortunately, 1241 00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 6: but at least you got a fully healthy San Antonio 1242 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:40,960 Speaker 6: Spurs team and young guys that you can, you know, 1243 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:45,439 Speaker 6: sort of market. I know nobody unfortunately gets excited about 1244 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:48,320 Speaker 6: the Spurs, young guys who are legit. But would you 1245 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 6: would you rather see a Pelicans team in there? Zionless 1246 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 6: because he's not coming back anytime soon, although there is 1247 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 6: no real timeline. Would you rather see a zionless Pelicans 1248 00:55:57,200 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 6: or a Spur Spurs? 1249 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,719 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you're right, I if you put that 1250 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 5: pull up, I feel like people might not even flick 1251 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 5: their voter. Yeah, yeah, see results personally Spurs. Yeah, because 1252 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 5: I don't think Zion will be back at all this season, 1253 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 5: and that's why I think Griffin decided, well, okay, he's 1254 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:17,600 Speaker 5: probably out for the year. We're not going to risk 1255 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,400 Speaker 5: anything with him. Even because our chances of getting in 1256 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 5: are still pretty damn slim. I think with when you 1257 00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:25,840 Speaker 5: get into like tiebreaker situations, if I have that correctly 1258 00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:28,839 Speaker 5: with the Spurs. But uh, yeah, which is weird timing 1259 00:56:28,920 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 5: with that whole like saying basically he got injured, like 1260 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 5: his finger got jammed because of the way he's been 1261 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:37,919 Speaker 5: officiated all year. It's like, I sort of see where 1262 00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 5: you're trying to go with this, Griff, But I don't know. 1263 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 5: So what cost him fifty k in the end? 1264 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 6: Yeah, I didn't. I got fifty thousand dollars fine for 1265 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 6: publicly criticizing the officials. 1266 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, or like just getting a tech faul when the 1267 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,919 Speaker 2: coach is unsappy. Yeah, you just try to sparky team 1268 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,239 Speaker 2: a little bit there. But I mean he said they've 1269 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:56,400 Speaker 2: sent in videos in the past and they've tried to 1270 00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:58,359 Speaker 2: bring it to the league's attention. So I guess that's 1271 00:56:58,400 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 2: what he's referring to in terms of you know, you're saying, 1272 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 2: like it's not just this incident here. But yeah, it's 1273 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 2: been a frustrating season for Griffin. They did not expect 1274 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 2: to be in this position. They had certainly hopes of 1275 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 2: being at worst in the you know, a lock for 1276 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,080 Speaker 2: the playing tournament, and now they're likely to miss everything. 1277 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 2: So he's you know, and he didn't rant and rave, 1278 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 2: he wasn't screaming his head off. He knew it was 1279 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 2: going to cost him fifty grand. But it's also just 1280 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 2: like saying to Zion, like, hey, Zion, we aren't just 1281 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 2: letting we aren't just letting this stuff go unnoticed. We 1282 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 2: are trying to bring it to the attention of the 1283 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 2: league so that going forward in future seasons you should 1284 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 2: get a few more whistles. But Zion is of course, 1285 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 2: he's also acknowledged that, remember the game agains the nugge three. 1286 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 2: He said, I have to earn my respect, So he 1287 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 2: understands that it's something that just takes time. And you know, 1288 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 2: he gets the line about eight times a game, so 1289 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 2: he gets you know, he gets cause he plays inside 1290 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 2: the paint. But yes, certainly like Shack, he's a bigger 1291 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 2: guy and he just kind of absorbs probably more contact 1292 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 2: than a lot of other guys do because of that. 1293 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,120 Speaker 2: So we'll see how things go for them next season 1294 00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 2: and say they can still squeeze in there. 1295 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 5: But you can't because the Spurs have not been playing 1296 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 5: all that well. Yeah, over the last little bit, they're 1297 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 5: a game and a half. The Pelicans are from the 1298 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 5: spurs of that tense seed. Uh and somehow the Kings 1299 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 5: are still in this tree. They're like they're like the bulls. 1300 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 5: I guess they're the sort of Western Conference version where 1301 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 5: they're just still there. It's unlikely they need some help, 1302 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:19,800 Speaker 5: but they're not technically eliminated yet. 1303 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:23,960 Speaker 4: But enough happened with the eleventh and twelfth seeds over 1304 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 4: the weekend that we still got a race into the 1305 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 4: last week of the season. What's better than this? Guys 1306 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 4: being dudes? 1307 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:30,960 Speaker 3: Uh? 1308 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 4: As for Zion plan, Just taint that thing out, buddy, 1309 00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,439 Speaker 4: you got nine other fingers. Come on, you know Kobe 1310 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 4: would be playing through this if he was trying to 1311 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,120 Speaker 4: get into the play in tournament. Suck it up, rub 1312 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 4: some dirt on it. 1313 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,440 Speaker 5: Maybe they don't want to make the play in tournament. 1314 00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 4: It's a broken finger, come on. 1315 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1316 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:51,480 Speaker 2: Sometimes I never heal.

Andy Cole and Dwight were up front, 1458 01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 2: but against uh Inter Milan in the in the in 1459 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:43,200 Speaker 2: the in the quarter final, they were leading after the 1460 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:48,920 Speaker 2: first leg two zero, and then Ronaldo came back. Ronaldo 1461 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:53,200 Speaker 2: came back, big fat Ronaldo. This is not Cristiano Ronaldo 1462 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 2: for the for the second leg in Milan. Now, yeah, 1463 01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:00,960 Speaker 2: I'm going back, I'm going back, coming back. And anyway, 1464 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 2: then Paul Skulls scored in Milan at the San zero 1465 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 2: to send them through. Then against Juventus in Manchester, Juventus 1466 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,560 Speaker 2: were leading one zero, and remember away goals count in 1467 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 2: Champions League. If the scores are tight, Juventus were leading 1468 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 2: one nil for the entirety of that game. Then Gigsy 1469 01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 2: scored might have also been in injury time. Then they 1470 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 2: go to Juventus right interin Juventus are up two nil 1471 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:24,480 Speaker 2: in about fifteen minutes into the game, so man United 1472 01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 2: have to score at least two to win. Andy Cole scores, 1473 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 2: d White York scores, and then I think it's skull 1474 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 2: scores again. The Roy Keen. That's it. Roy Keen scored. 1475 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:43,520 Speaker 2: Roy Keen scored in Juventus off a header to get 1476 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,840 Speaker 2: them back at to a two to one, and then 1477 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 2: Dwight York scores to make it too cool. And then 1478 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:52,120 Speaker 2: Andy Cole finishes it off and they go through too. 1479 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:54,640 Speaker 2: It's honestly the most incredible run by a team. And 1480 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 2: then they win on to win the final in Barcelona 1481 01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 2: of all places as well, So see I do remember, 1482 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 2: and it was just such a it was such a 1483 01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 2: fun run for this team to go and now always 1484 01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:06,479 Speaker 2: down and I always came back. Although against Into miland 1485 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 2: that would have a down, but it was just like 1486 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:10,160 Speaker 2: Into with Renata coming back, it looked like that was 1487 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 2: gonna do it. 1488 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 5: Crazy birthday man, well. 1489 01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 6: Onm Barcelo celebration down that store. 1490 01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 5: Fifteenth birthday week that you'd like to talk about the 1491 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 5: Blue Jays here. 1492 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:29,080 Speaker 6: The year was nineteen ninety two.

Where are we going? 1571 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 6: Then? Well, it's the Utah Jazz and the Golden State Warriors. 1572 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:22,439 Speaker 6: Could be a first round matchup if the Warriors get 1573 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:24,400 Speaker 6: to the playing tournament. Jazz trying to hold onto the 1574 01:11:24,479 --> 01:11:27,920 Speaker 6: one seed going into Golden State three and a half points. 1575 01:11:28,960 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 6: The Warriors are getting as the underdog on NBA TV, 1576 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 6: people trying to claim that this Warriors team could maybe 1577 01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:41,280 Speaker 6: possibly be like that. We believe Warriors upset of a 1578 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:45,720 Speaker 6: one to eight if that happens after the play in tournament, Hey, 1579 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 6: it'll be fun to watch them try and guard Seth 1580 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 6: Curry tonight at least. So let's get some picks. Golden 1581 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,639 Speaker 6: State getting three and a half points at home against Utah? 1582 01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 6: Who wants it? 1583 01:11:57,560 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 5: Who wants I'll go first because I actually think that 1584 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:03,000 Speaker 5: will win this and cover it because I think the 1585 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:07,760 Speaker 5: Warriors are smart. They may throw this eight seed. They 1586 01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:09,799 Speaker 5: may want to not play the Lakers. 1587 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 3: Now. 1588 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,760 Speaker 5: I know you get two bites at the Apple, but 1589 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:15,600 Speaker 5: would it not be beneficial in a weird way for 1590 01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 5: them to well hold on now? That I say that, 1591 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:21,200 Speaker 5: it's like, what's the loss of losing to the Lakers. 1592 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:22,479 Speaker 1: It doesn't really really. 1593 01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 5: Matter, so anyway, forget that. I'll still go with the 1594 01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,560 Speaker 5: Jazz though, because I think they would still win in 1595 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,240 Speaker 5: a one eight series, so I think it'd be very 1596 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:31,679 Speaker 5: entertaining see what Curry can do against them. But I'll 1597 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 5: go you taught to win tonight by four? 1598 01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:35,000 Speaker 6: All right, betray what you got? 1599 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 4: Give me the Warriors to at least keep it close. 1600 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 4: Who has more to play for tonight? I guess it's 1601 01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 4: probably still the Jazz. They're about to win away from 1602 01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 4: really locking things down and be in the one seed. 1603 01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:48,800 Speaker 1: Um. 1604 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,559 Speaker 6: But I don't know, give me the Warriors. 1605 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 4: I'm just feeling like the Warriors tonight, you know. 1606 01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm with you, Lee, what you got? 1607 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 2: Yes, Sam? I want to see Steph have another double digits, 1608 01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:01,200 Speaker 2: three point game and maybe for fifty five, So I'll 1609 01:13:01,240 --> 01:13:01,880 Speaker 2: take the Warriors. 1610 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 6: I feel like the Warriors too, but I think the 1611 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:05,559 Speaker 6: Jazz win, so I'll take the Jazz. 1612 01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 5: Okay, Okay, we are split on this one. Tastina taking 1613 01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 5: the Jazz to win by four points or more. We 1614 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 5: got Lee Ntk taking the Warriors to cover or maybe 1615 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,080 Speaker 5: hit that money line. All right, Lee, I know you 1616 01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 5: got one more thing here. Please don't talk about soccer 1617 01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 5: for twenty minutes, but you got for us. 1618 01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:22,599 Speaker 2: I've got a tweet here from David Beck Noo, we've 1619 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,760 Speaker 2: got a fan ligne, and of course it comes from 1620 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 2: Cereal sign Center Render. Yeah, self defeating down there in Miami. 1621 01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:32,600 Speaker 2: He just wants to work hard and listen to no. 1622 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 2: I mean he hasn't missed a beat. I don't think 1623 01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:37,400 Speaker 2: we've heard from the serial Signs Center Render. I guess 1624 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 2: since our starters day, and he just picks up like 1625 01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 2: where he left off. I look at that great t shirt. 1626 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:45,720 Speaker 2: He's good on there. That's cool blucking Tatum in the 1627 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:47,960 Speaker 2: game one. I think it was at the conference finals 1628 01:13:49,280 --> 01:13:53,080 Speaker 2: last season. Yeah, in Miami. So good job, Cereal Signs Center, Renner. 1629 01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:55,040 Speaker 2: Keep them coming, man, keep them coming. 1630 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,360 Speaker 5: All right.
