Speaker 3: Yes, I'm a speculative moves by the media say this week. Okay,

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 3: they're desperate. They're desperate stor.

18
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,639
Speaker 2: JD will have the questions when we get too rapid

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 2: fire fun because it is Friday. But first, the Dallas

20
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 2: Mavericks are heading to the NBA Finals after a dominant

21
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 2: one twenty four one to ozho three win. In Game

22
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: five over the Wolves in Minnesota, Lucas scored twenty of

23
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,479
Speaker 2: his thirty six points in the first quarter, Kyrie added

24
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 2: thirty six of his own, and the Wolves never really

25
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: had a chance in this one. MAVs win a gentleman sweep.

26
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 2: Trey Kirby, Oh, we should have worre top Pats today

27
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 2: are bad, are bad. But yeah, why don't you get

28
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 2: to started here with again, probably starting with Luca or Kyrie,

29
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 2: some combination of the two. Just an ass kicking there.

30
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 4: In Game five, you gotta start with Luca because he

31
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 4: scored twenty points in the first quarter, hitting an array

32
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 4: of three pointers deeper and deeper as the quarter went on.

33
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if this is going to go down

34
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 4: in history as the hanky game, but apparently it could have.

35
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 4: As Ben Golliver was talking about, there was some guy

36
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 4: sitting courtside going lee Ellis mode on Luka Dancic bringing

37
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 4: out a hanky, saying you're whining for too many calls,

38
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 4: And that's all Luca needed to get fired up and

39
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,799
Speaker 4: take this game from the timber Wolves. The greats fine

40
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 4: motivation in the strangest of places skeets. You know, maybe

41
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 4: it's a guy trash talking to you from the stands.

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 4: Maybe it's le Bradford Smith saying he's the MJ stopper.

43
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 4: It's always something. He figured out the curveball that they

44
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 4: threw at him in Game four, moving Anthony Edwards onto

45
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 4: him defensively. The solve was pretty easy, though. It turned

46
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 4: out for Luka Doncic just shoot over him. Yeah, guess

47
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: what you're bigger at. Worked. Then they tried McDaniels on

48
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 4: and went back to the bump game shot his little

49
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 4: mid ranges, and then Kyle Anderson had done a pretty

50
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 4: good job up until this game, and Luca deside, I'll

51
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 4: just go around him. I'll go around the way for

52
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 4: him to pass by. Incredible stuff. He was completely in

53
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 4: control of the entire game. There were some interesting moments,

54
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,839
Speaker 4: I suppose in the third quarter when the Timberwolves would

55
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: cut it to twenty four and you're like, oh, the

56
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 4: crowds get into it, and then Kyrie Irving would have

57
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 4: a three point Yeah, that's what it felt like. You know,

58
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 4: the game was over basically after the first quarter, and

59
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 4: just what a stomping by the Mavericks.

60
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, Luca had twelve points tasts in the game's first

61
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty three seconds. He was already at twelve.

62
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: He hit a hook shot in the lane over Conley,

63
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 2: which Gobert goaltended until he got started. Then he hit

64
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 2: a thirty foot thirty one foot three from his spot

65
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 2: on the left wing. Then he hit a twenty nine

66
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: foot step back three, of course, from basically the exact

67
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: same spot. Both of those threes, by the way, on

68
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards. Then he isoed on McDaniels and hit a

69
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: sixteen foot jumper at the free throw line, and then

70
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: he got ant on his back and hit a little

71
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 2: six foot floater that was just like to get started

72
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 2: there in the quarter, a bit of everything.

73
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder if Jake Kid said, Luca's gonna get going,

74
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: so let's post him up that seven foot hook shot.

75
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 3: It was a post up. You don't usually see that,

76
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 3: ye from Luca. They went into him and was it

77
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: a goaltend. It was really really close with three to

78
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: go barn where he hit it. But then his second shot, yeah,

79
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: thirty one foot shot. That's deep. He just literally stepped

80
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 3: to the side and hit a thirty footer and we

81
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 3: all said, that is the line for how deep a

82
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: shot can be. Like we've all discussed when they throw

83
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: up that little little graphic, yeah it's it's an ESPN thing.

84
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 3: If it's twenty seven twenty eight feet, you don't really

85
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 3: need to put that up there.

86
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 5: But when he's thirty, Yeah, when thirty.

87
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: Especially that one from the logo, that one was pretty deep.

88
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: That was incredible.

89
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, he shut the first one from the logo he missed. Yeah,

90
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: but then he said I'm taking it again, and the

91
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 3: logo is not even that big really, and in Minnesota smaller.

92
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 3: So yeah, that was a thirty two footer all in

93
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: the first quarter where he got stupid hot. And then,

94
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 3: as you said, yes, there were a little bit of feelings,

95
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 3: the idea of okay, maybe Minnesota's coming back, But when

96
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: your leader is doing that what he did, everybody sort

97
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 3: of just falls in line. Like Josh Green, even I

98
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,119
Speaker 3: thought he had a really good game with the steel

99
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 3: His numbers aren't all that good, but he was just

100
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: playing sort of out of his head in a way.

101
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 3: I mean, they just felt so comfortable because their leader

102
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 3: had twelve points before he even missed a shot. He

103
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: scored twenty in the first quarter, Minnesota scored nineteen and

104
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 3: even Kyle Anderson, who had a steal on Luca with

105
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 3: about six minutes into this game. He wasn't quite the

106
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 3: napkin guy, the handkerchief guy, but Luca was looking at

107
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: him like, I'm what are you doing, dude? Like anything anything.

108
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 3: And that's a note to Boston fans. Don't get on him.

109
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: Oh sure, I'm sure they'll be well behaved.

110
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: But it's so simple. I mean, obviously, yeah, MJ does it.

111
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: Luca does the MJ thing. He will look at anybody,

112
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 3: anybody if you pick up your nap if you spill

113
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 3: a drop in the front row, I mean, he is

114
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 3: going to get mad. Don't do anything. Just go in there,

115
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 3: put your hands in your pockets, put a straight checket on,

116
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 3: don't move.

117
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 4: That's the complete silence that would probably throw them off.

118
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 4: That would be very weird. Didn't make a noise like that.

119
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: There was a post going around Reddit before Game five

120
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,679
Speaker 2: last night from somebody pleading Wolves fans to do exactly

121
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,840
Speaker 2: what you guys are saying. Don't boom, don't boom. Don't

122
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,480
Speaker 2: that that inspires him, Yeah, just stay quiet right to

123
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 2: the ball. But then he you know, he's psychoed, so

124
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 2: he would just flip that around and be like, they

125
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 2: don't they don't even respect me. They're not even making

126
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: no respect nuts. So, yeah, he was named the Magic

127
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: Johnson Western Conference Finals MVP. Dominated the series. He averaged

128
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 2: thirty two point four points, eight point two assists, nine

129
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 2: point six rebounds. His biggest moment probably still was in

130
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: game two and he had Rudy out on an island,

131
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: had him dancing around, splashed that three to put them

132
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: up in the closing seconds. But yeah, he really did

133
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 2: figure out in a manner of a few possessions. It

134
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 2: felt like every conceivable coverage that they chucked at him

135
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: and whatever defender it was, and that's the brilliance of him.

136
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 2: Give him a few possessions, maybe a quarter, and then

137
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: he's going to unlock it. And he had that shot going. Man,

138
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 2: when he's got that step back three from that left

139
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: wing that's thirty feet like you were, it's a rat man,

140
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 2: and then he's barking at everybody. Yeah, the terror that

141
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 2: he sort of sent through that building and it got quiet.

142
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,119
Speaker 2: I can't play quiet. It got quiet in a hurry.

143
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: And then you said in the second half, it's like

144
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: the wolves started to like string together a few scores.

145
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 2: The problem was they weren't getting any stops none. They

146
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: couldn't stop them. There was like no run to happen

147
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: because you have to get actually stops when you're down

148
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: twenty five plus points, and that just never materialize. And

149
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 2: as great as Luca was, you said it, Trey, like,

150
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,679
Speaker 2: Kyrie was just as awesome for stretches in this game

151
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 2: where he just you know, he'll just take his like

152
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 2: unlike Game four, he was just hitting the shots.

153
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 4: He had the quiet thirty six last night. Basically, the

154
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 4: timber Wolves gave up two forty point scorers and they're

155
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 4: supposed to be the best defense in the league. It

156
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 4: just didn't matter. You saw how dry Luca's hair was.

157
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: That's true, quite puppy.

158
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, Kyrie didn't really get going going until the

159
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,119
Speaker 3: second quarter because Luca was scorching hot in the first quarter.

160
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: But that is the recipe for this team. Usually it's

161
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 3: you know, Kyrie can start sometimes, but usually it's Lucas

162
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 3: starting sometimes and then they just exchange halves. It's usually

163
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 3: one half for this guy and one half for the

164
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 3: other guy. But in the third was disappointing to see

165
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 3: obviously after a first half which was extremely disappointing. Maybe

166
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 3: that was the more disappointing part. But the third quarter

167
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: where Luca just basically walked in on the first possession,

168
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: like slow motion of a drive and able to shoot

169
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 3: over Rudy Gobert to start that thing, and then there

170
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 3: was just no extremely bright moments for the Minnesota tever Wolves.

171
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: It just felt extremely disappointing. There was there's some good moments,

172
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 3: even in the second quarter where Anton Kat were kind

173
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 3: of going back and forth a little bit to get

174
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 3: them somewhat in shooting distance, but they couldn't stop anybody.

175
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 3: That was the problem.

176
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Chris Finch after the game. They were led by

177
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 2: two world class players that played at a world class level,

178
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 2: and that sort of sums up Game five, really sums

179
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: up the series when you look at it when you

180
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 2: zoom out, and just how they played in the wins

181
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: and in the one win from Minnesota, their stars came through.

182
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 2: It was nice to see Mavericks rookie big man Derek

183
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: Lively second back out there, returning two Game five after

184
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: missing Game four with that neck injury. Now he got

185
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 2: popped in the head in this one. I think that

186
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 2: was nas reed right, that sort of clocked him. They're like, oh, oh,

187
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,719
Speaker 2: but Lively, you know, nine points eight boards. I thought

188
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: Gaffer also did a great job, like those big guys.

189
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: Those two guys were fantastic in the series. I threw

190
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: out this entire playoff run are going to have to

191
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 2: be huge against you know, Porzingis and al Horford when

192
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: we get to the finals, and we will talk about

193
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: that a little bit, but we'll save our preview podcast

194
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 2: till Monday show and do the deep dive there. But

195
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: it was good to see him back there. You just

196
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 2: see the difference he makes and just his playmaking and

197
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 2: obviously his rimp protection. Yeah, lob threat.

198
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 4: He looked good. Good passing, Yeah, allows Maxi Kleba to

199
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 4: play the four. Keeps a huge lineup out there, Kleeb.

200
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 4: But I think it's going to be super important against

201
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 4: the Celtics. But yeah, pretty quick recovery.

202
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. For Derek Lively, Yeah, just you can see him

203
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 3: how good he is. I mean, he is their best center,

204
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 3: but he literally comes off the bench. So he's just

205
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: damn talented dude for twenty years old. And I'm sure

206
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: they're playing for him in a way as well. He

207
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 3: had the tragedy before the playoffs started. But he just

208
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 3: looks like he's thirty. I mean he's really skilled. Yeah,

209
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 3: and so they, as Lucas says after every series, I mean,

210
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 3: we don't win without that guy. And it doesn't feel

211
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 3: like they win without him. In this series. He was

212
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 3: their closer in this game, in this series. Excuse me,

213
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 3: even though he comes off the bench, she is their closer.

214
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 3: And the scary part is Luca got better as the

215
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 3: playoffs went on. I think it's easy to forget here

216
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: now that we're like six weeks into the postseason. Luca

217
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 3: was not scorching against the Clippers in Round one. He

218
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 3: was shooting forty percent from the floor, twenty three percent

219
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 3: from the three, and then got it going during the

220
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: second series against Denver for sure, not Denver, okay, okay, see,

221
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 3: and then now he's just unstoppable.

222
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 2: To illustrate that point, this sort of blew my mind.

223
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 2: I saw it from Sam Quinn at CBS Sports. It's

224
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 2: worth remembering that, at least statistically, this has been Luca's

225
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 2: worst postseason, which is insane to say out loud. We

226
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 2: just saw what he did, but he's averaging yet under

227
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 2: twenty nine points per game throughout the postseason, his field

228
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 2: goal percentage three point percentage. They're also playoff lows. Now,

229
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 2: he's a little banged up, multiple leg injuries, He's faced

230
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 2: two of the top five defenses in the league. He

231
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 2: obviously has a better team, so he can rely on

232
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 2: those guys more. There's all these caveats, but I was like, whoa, Yeah,

233
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: that's sort of crazy, and you're right, task he is

234
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: just getting better and I cannot wait to see how

235
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: Boston tries to slow him down now, because he's done

236
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: a pretty damn incredible job against OKC with tort As

237
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: sort of the main guy, and they did a good

238
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: enough job on him. Still unlocked and figured out that,

239
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 2: and then obviously the Wolf the best defense in the league,

240
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: and you know, he sort of torched them for at

241
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 2: least what three.

242
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 3: Of those games.

243
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, we talked all season long about how the Western

244
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 4: Conference was going to be a bloodbath if the MAVs

245
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 4: came in as a five seed beat three of the

246
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 4: top four seeds, all who have great defenses.

247
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, all fifty win teams. Yeah yeah.

248
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 4: Compared to the Celtics, I know, one team was gifted

249
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 4: a finals appearance. One team took a finals appearance, right.

250
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: Right, And that's why they feel like the Dallas Mavericks

251
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 3: that won the championship because there are underdogs in this series.

252
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 3: They're underdogs in the last series against Okay see in

253
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 3: the first series against the Clippers, it seemed like a

254
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: fifty to fifty was pretty close. But it feels like

255
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 3: the Mass series they are going to be underdogs going

256
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 3: into the finals. It feels a lot like that twenty

257
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 3: eleven Mass team now that you look at it this way,

258
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: because you're right, three of the top four teams, so

259
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 3: of course they're going to be underdogs. And now they

260
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 3: face ball and sell that. Who want a freaking load

261
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 3: of games this season?

262
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 2: What else from this particular game five do you have

263
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 2: in your notes? There tk anything else to add? I

264
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: know it turns into a blowout, so it's like sort

265
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: of less to like break down in detail.

266
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 4: Boy, Yeah, but I did like all of the memes

267
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 4: going around comparing this to the Sun's Game seven twenty

268
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 4: twenty two, Chris Paul hits a big three to cut

269
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 4: the lead to forty two points. It was Anthony Edwards

270
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: this time cutting the lead to twenty seven, So that

271
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 4: was interesting. How those rhymed. I saw Rudy Gobert got

272
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 4: another technical. He got a double tech in this game

273
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 4: and also won in the previous game. So that's plus

274
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 4: two points now that he's eliminated, finally scoring for me

275
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 4: in the instagrated Instigator draft. Very big. But yeah, this

276
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,680
Speaker 4: was just great stuff from the MAVs. You know, I

277
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 4: said after Game four, I didn't necessarily love Anthony Edwards

278
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 4: postgame interview where he's like, we just didn't want to

279
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 4: get swept kind of what it felt like.

280
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what he was saying when he

281
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 3: brought the team with into how many did you say?

282
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 3: It was twenty seven, but he was saying something going

283
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: back to the huddle where he was like past the ball.

284
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 3: It seemed like it was passed the ball if I

285
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 3: was reading into it, like passed the ball board. But

286
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 3: really it was the defense that was a huge problem,

287
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 3: and they were obviously comfortable letting Rudy Gobert shoot as

288
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 3: much as possible. Within the first minute, Rudy Gobert scored

289
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 3: on Luca in the post and it was an end one

290
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 3: and Rudy gave the he gave the whip, I got

291
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 3: the end one, and that's when Luca turned it on.

292
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 3: The thirty one footer came right after that. That was

293
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 3: a minute into this game, and so that was, you know,

294
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 3: something that I guess Luca was motivated by.

295
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: Again yeah, yeah, but that was definilly the game plan

296
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 2: from the Mavers and credit to Kid and his staff.

297
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I thought they did coach a great series

298
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 2: here throughout the playoffs and sort of finding guys in

299
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: the right roles and the strategies because they were like,

300
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: we're not letting Amp beat us, so we'll just throw

301
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: two guys at him.

302
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 5: Kat.

303
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 2: We just want him to have to dribble. If you

304
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 2: can run him off the line. That big, you know

305
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 2: guy gets going, he's gonna draw some offensive fouls, which

306
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: we saw in this series. You know, he's a little

307
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: he sometimes like tries to avoid contact when he attacks

308
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: the rim, so he wants to sort of get cute

309
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: with like the Kyrie like layups since like you're a

310
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 2: seven footer. But like and he looked he did. He

311
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: did okay there for stretches to try and get them

312
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: back into it. But like that was the strategy. We're

313
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 2: fine with go beart shooting. We're fine with Luca on

314
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 2: him basically, and your guys in the corner were not

315
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 2: all that worried about as well. So that worked perfectly.

316
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 2: And the offensive like little wrinkle they did do you know,

317
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 2: in addition to Luca just saying Okay, I'll figure this

318
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 2: out and I'll just shoot over you was they were

319
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 2: setting those picks around half court like very very high

320
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 2: to then get the motion going and to get him

321
00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: sort of going towards the rim. And that worked it well.

322
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 2: So you know, they set them out way higher and

323
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: when that happens, I'm always like, we gloss over it.

324
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 2: But like you got to show love to like Gafford

325
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: and Lively for doing that. Like you're asking a big

326
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 2: dude to sprint out there back to half court to

327
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 2: set those and set them without moving and really establish

328
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 2: Like that's you know, impressive.

329
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 4: Now.

330
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 2: I know the Wolves will say, wow, they're not actually established.

331
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 2: You know, there's moving screens. I think Finch was saying

332
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: after after Game four, and we did a good job

333
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 2: navigating those moving screens. He slipped that in there. But

334
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: you know the point is, like those guys are just

335
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: energy but or energizer bunnies, the two of them, I'd say,

336
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 2: Gafford is just sort of creepy athletic as Lively quite

337
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 2: being a little bit older in terms of his motor

338
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 2: at least.

339
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's extremely thic. He gets up on the boarder,

340
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 3: we just blocking shots, and you got to just speak,

341
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 3: I think, to the the top of the pecking order

342
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 3: with this Dallas Mavericks team. Again two years ago, it

343
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: was Dorian Phiney Smith, Reggie Bullock and Maxie Kleeba were

344
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 3: sort of the three four five like trying to get

345
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 3: you there, and Dwight Powell. So that's just speaks to

346
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: guys wanting to play, you know, behind Luca, Like, those

347
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 3: were the guys and they played well well enough to

348
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 3: go to the conference finals. And now they have an

349
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 3: even better secondary team that myself I questioned when they

350
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 3: made the transactions the trades at the deadline. Is PJ.

351
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 3: Washington and Daniel Gafford good enough? Are they good enough?

352
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 3: Because you know, throughout the history of this their careers,

353
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 3: they haven't been. But it's a lot different when you're

354
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 3: playing with this superstar.

355
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: Obviously, a couple other Luca notes, you know, we talked

356
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 2: about him talking shit with the crowd and the handkerchief

357
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 2: guy and all that. It was very funny too when

358
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: we got a flopper chant from the Wolves crowd and

359
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: he was like mouthing along with it, very funny while

360
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: he was going to the free throw line. And then

361
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 2: after the game, I'm sure you've seen this clip. I

362
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 2: think JD has it. Luca was having a recovery beer,

363
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 2: a postgame celebratory beer. When you're going to see Michael Finley,

364
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 2: the assistant gem of the MAVs, come in just sort

365
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 2: of yoink it from him, take it right out of

366
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 2: his hand, walk away with it after tapping up Luca's dad,

367
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 2: and you see even Luca just, oh damn, okay, didn't

368
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 2: want me to have that. Maybe he didn't want me

369
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 2: to have that in the locker room, I'm not or

370
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 2: in the sort of hallway, I'm not sure, but a

371
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 2: very funny clip.

372
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 4: What can I do? What can I do?

373
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 2: That sort of the boss man tak him a beer away.

374
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,199
Speaker 3: And we're sure it's a beer, Not that it matters,

375
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 3: but it looks like it. Yeah, what are you doing,

376
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 3: Finn Doug?

377
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: Why let the man have a beer?

378
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 4: I think Luca looks funny in a hat.

379
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 3: Oh god, yeah, it look like.

380
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 4: A like a pope, so tall and round. This strange, Yeah,

381
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 4: strange to see.

382
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 3: A half pope. Yeah. I was just gonna say, he

383
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 3: looks like so many guys I went to high school with.

384
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 3: I just can't put the hat on properly, just like

385
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 3: on top of his head. He just at times, we know,

386
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 3: you know, when I when I used to call him

387
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,920
Speaker 3: avatar head because his head is so wide and he's

388
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 3: and when he looks you, his head is just so big.

389
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 3: You know, if it's an entire avatar, he just doesn't

390
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 3: look like a guy that'll run a basketball team to

391
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 3: the NBA finals at times.

392
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: Thank you for reminding me it was the avatar, like

393
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 2: his head fitting into an avatar talking about the movie

394
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 2: for a second, like what why do you say that?

395
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't even know if it was an avatar head.

396
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 3: I called him back.

397
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 4: You called him a one forty faces, Yeah, one hundred

398
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 4: and forty pixels by.

399
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, because he squares I should remember that line. Yeah,

400
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 3: because he fills it out. He fills it out.

401
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: Do you think he has as big ahead as.

402
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: AUSA great question.

403
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 2: There's no way, right or dark hair, No, that's next level.

404
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 3: I think it could be as big as Darwin Hens.

405
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, i'd have to see that. I don't know

406
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: about that.

407
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 3: That's why he's got the pupe head literally doesn't fit.

408
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 4: It's so roid very round.

409
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,520
Speaker 2: All right. Uh, let's pivot to talking a little bit

410
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 2: about the Minnesota Timberwolves and sort of what's next for them.

411
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 2: They are projected to exceed two hundred million dollars in

412
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: salary and they're expected to pay the luxury tax for

413
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 2: only the second time since seven o eight. The penalty

414
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: is expected to be like seventy five million dollars, So

415
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 2: it's not cheap. I think to get this started. A

416
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: lot of Minnesota's off season could depend on how much

417
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 2: ownership is willing to spend. Big problem with that, Who

418
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 2: the hell are the owners? Like? What's going on there?

419
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 5: Right?

420
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 2: Is still this confusing and sort of messy situation between

421
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: Alex Rodriguez and Mark Laurie and then Glenn Taylor. They

422
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 2: got a lot to sort out there and arbitration and

423
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 2: all that. But yeah, like, what do you think the

424
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 2: Wolves should do this offseason? Like? Is this like a

425
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 2: run it back sort of team? They are locked in basically,

426
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: they're starting five. They're all like locked up You've got

427
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 2: some unrestricted guys like Kyle Anderson and maybe Montae Morris

428
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, But what do you do.

429
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 3: It's absolutely a running back team for me, and I

430
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 3: can't wait till the arbitration meetings happened between the Lori

431
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 3: and Rodriguez side versus the Glenn Taylor side. What the

432
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 3: heck happens with those. There's the Tim Connolly who's the

433
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 3: president of basketball operations, and he can opt out. You

434
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 3: don't hear about a president basketball operations being able to

435
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 3: opt out. She's got three years air quotes under his

436
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,120
Speaker 3: current contract left, but he could literally just walk away.

437
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 3: I still think that this team is just too damn

438
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: good to tear apart because in this Conference finals, they

439
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: lost the first two games and that's where it all ended,

440
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 3: and they were up late in the Conference finals. They're

441
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 3: up four with three minutes left in Game one. They're

442
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 3: up five with one thirty left in Game two. That's

443
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 3: where they lost this series. I know it looks terrible.

444
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 3: It looks like the Phoenix Suns a couple of years ago.

445
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 2: But like getting waxed in the last game, yeah and

446
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 2: losing in fun Yeah exactly right?

447
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 3: Now, Yeah, it looks it looks bad. They needed to

448
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 3: close that. They just got to be a better close

449
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 3: it out team. And how does that happen? Their best

450
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 3: player just gets better, I think. I think Anthony Edwards

451
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 3: just gets better. I wouldn't tear it apart. But the drama,

452
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 3: I guess, you know, within the front office may play

453
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: a part into what they do. I suppose yeah, yeah, I.

454
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 4: Mean, they got to figure out who's going to be

455
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 4: the owner, and then like if it's a Rod and

456
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 4: Mark Lourie, you're spending, however many millions of dollars to

457
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 4: buy the team, and suddenly you have to pay the

458
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 4: second highest salary for a team in the entire league.

459
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 4: Like you said, Skeet's seventy five million dollars in luxury

460
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 4: tax payments. That's not including Kyle Anderson, who's a free agent.

461
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 4: Nikhil Alexander Walker will be a free agent next summer.

462
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean the big question mark is will

463
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 4: they trade Towns. I saw Bobby Marks mentioned that Towns

464
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 4: is making forty nine million dollars next season, one of

465
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 4: the largest in the NBA, and if they trade him,

466
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 4: that would trigger the first Apron hard cap for teams

467
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 4: who trade for him. Yeah, so that makes it really

468
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 4: tough to trade him, I believe. And who are you

469
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 4: getting back that's better than Karl Anthony Towns. Like a

470
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 4: lot of the trades you're hearing kicked around are for

471
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 4: Julius Randall.

472
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.

473
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 4: I mean he's he's good in the regular season. Yeah,

474
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 4: so it's Towns. Yeah, Towns was awesome in the first

475
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 4: two rounds here, and then he didn't have a great

476
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 4: conference finals. I agree with you. I also thought Edwards

477
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 4: was good in the conference finals, but not great. So

478
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 4: more than likely they end up running it back, paying

479
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 4: a ton of money, and then maybe they address some

480
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 4: of this stuff next season, because I think the team

481
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 4: was good enough this year and successful enough this year

482
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 4: that it's worth paying up. That's why you buy a

483
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 4: basketball team to try and win championships, and they got

484
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 4: a chance. Though, it wouldn't be surprising if they come

485
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 4: up short at the conference finals next year considering how

486
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 4: the West is.

487
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just so many talented teams it is. It's

488
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 2: a tough decision, man. The Karl Anthony Towns of it all,

489
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: for sure, Like, yeah, he played well at times and

490
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 2: he sort of disappeared at times and like things that

491
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: always frustrate you about him, you know, the dumbfowls where

492
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: you sort of just went ice cold from shooting. Can

493
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 2: he be like your legit number two to win four

494
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: playoff rounds and you got to assume is going to

495
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 2: get better that that should be a given. I think

496
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: he will. But man, you are also going to be

497
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 2: projected as a second Apron team. So even if you

498
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,360
Speaker 2: want to trade Karl Anthony Towns, that starts to get

499
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: more difficult because you're restricted by the second Apron rules.

500
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: Can't combine a salary with anyone else's on the roster,

501
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 2: can't acquire anyone via sign and trade, can't take in

502
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 2: more money than they send out. And that's just a

503
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 2: few of the sort of rules with that second Apron.

504
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 2: So it does does become difficult. I'm with you. I

505
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: think they will sort of quote unquote run this back

506
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 2: and give it a go. But man, it makes me

507
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 2: a little queasy because I'm with you, Trey. It's like,

508
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 2: would I bet on the Wolves being in the conference

509
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 2: finals again next year? Like what percentage would I put

510
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 2: that at? It's not like eighty percent, ninety percent They're there. No, No,

511
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 2: there's just too many good teams and matchups coming to play. Obviously, injuries,

512
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 2: as we've seen time and time again, come into play,

513
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 2: so it's tough. But yeah, they got to figure out

514
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 2: who the hell's in charge. They have a huge impact.

515
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 2: You said the Conley thing, Like you know, there's rumors

516
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 2: like the Pistons like just want to throw the bag

517
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 2: at him, or maybe another team just like to go

518
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 2: get him to try and like rebuild their franchise. Who

519
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 2: is the architect and has done a great job.

520
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 3: But A Rod and Laurie did put a lot of

521
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 3: money into this team when they were seemingly becoming the

522
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 3: majority owners and it was going through a three year process,

523
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 3: and they put a lot of money into Tim Connolly.

524
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 3: They put a lot of money into the facilities in Minnesota,

525
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: so that bodes well for Minnesota going into the luxury tax.

526
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 3: But it is phenomenon phenomenal. Just I just haven't seen

527
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 3: something like this in major sports where you see this

528
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 3: takeover process happen over a course of three years. It's

529
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 3: just very rare. And at the same time, Glenn Taylor

530
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 3: purchased a minorities owner ownership while this was all happening

531
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 3: for the purpose of going to arbitration here with a

532
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,640
Speaker 3: larger percentage, and he technically now has a larger ownership

533
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 3: percentage than Lori and Rodriguez. So when they go to

534
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 3: the arbitration table, I think that's what he brings with him.

535
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 3: He has some power now. Shoutout Tournmanpolatory for pointing that out.

536
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 3: But he went and purchased a two point four six

537
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 3: percent whatever it was, some tiny percentage so he could

538
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 3: have a larger ownership than Lauri and Rodriguez. Very strange,

539
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 3: but also very strange because it just seemed like Lauria

540
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 3: and Rodrigaz were doing the absolute right things and buying

541
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 3: somebody like Tim Connley, doing little things like upgrading the

542
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 3: the meetings offices where everybody hung out before the games

543
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 3: and all that kind.

544
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 2: Of Glenn Taylor didn't like that.

545
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 3: It's a waste of money. Yeah, he might be right.

546
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 4: Possible.

547
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: The Wolves have the number twenty seven pick in this draft.

548
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: They also have the number thirty seven picks, so you know,

549
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 2: not a lottery pick or anything like that, but a

550
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: few picks to maybe play with. And yeah, man, it's

551
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 2: just like, what do they need? They feels like they

552
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 2: need some more shot making. Some guys that can maybe

553
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 2: create off the dribble a little bit either sort of

554
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 2: at the guard position, wing position. There it's a little

555
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 2: more playmaking and sort of attacking type players. Not easy

556
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 2: to find that can also then not you know, tank

557
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 2: your defense because that's what that's their identity, which is good.

558
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,199
Speaker 2: You know they have that. I mean, they were the

559
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: best in the regular season, and then you have Ann

560
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 2: hoefully just blossoms into more and more of a superstar.

561
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 2: But yeah, big decisions, cat man. That's that's tough. That's tough,

562
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 2: especially when you went this far. And he did look

563
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,639
Speaker 2: good like they didn't win that Nugget Series without him.

564
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 4: The Nugget Series without him, yeah, for sure. And I

565
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 4: thought he was really solid guarding Kevin Durant in the

566
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 4: first series against the Suns as well, which everybody picked

567
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 4: the Suns.

568
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: True guilty guilty as charged.

569
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then great guarding Jokic. I mean, he's done

570
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 3: a lot, and he's a complimentary number two guy, and

571
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 3: if the number one guy was a little bit more

572
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 3: of a number one guy in the Conference finals, as

573
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 3: I said, up four to three minutes left, up five,

574
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 3: one pint, thirty left in game two, and then they

575
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 3: were tied four to thirty left in Game three where

576
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 3: they just didn't score at the end of the game.

577
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 3: They scored one point in the last five minutes. If

578
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 3: ant is ant, like, it's very hard to say if

579
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: a guy is just has the endurance, you know, sitting

580
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 3: from here to really know, but it just sure feels

581
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 3: like he's just ain't fit enough and hasn't gone through

582
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 3: this long of a playoffs as well. So maybe that's

583
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 3: just it. Because Kat did damn well as a number

584
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 3: two guy, even though we'll get to a Worst of

585
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 3: the Week nominee that said that guy isn't good, but

586
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 3: really on the basketball floor, on the basketball floor, he helped.

587
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 2: The complication or I guess the other wrinkle I showed

588
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 2: us that is, you know, the idea of trading Cat,

589
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 2: you do have a guy to slot in right and

590
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 2: maybe take on a majority of what he was giving you.

591
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: We even saw it in the regular season with nos

592
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 2: Reed sort of sliding in there. If you make a

593
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 2: move for whatever, a wing, a guard, whatever direction you go.

594
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: Though it's tough, I'm with you trade, Like I was

595
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 2: trying to, like, who the hell are they trade him for?

596
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 2: And like what other team. And then there's like the

597
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 2: issue of like what does the other how many teams

598
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: want Karl Anthony Towns at that price as well because

599
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 2: of what it does to your to your books.

600
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 4: Look, nas Rey scored eleven points in the last two games.

601
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 4: Nos Reed was horrible last night. Yeah, they're really give

602
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 4: you anything. Defensively, Yeah, he's probably a worst defensive player

603
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 4: than cat He we always call him a big guard.

604
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 4: He's a big guard. Yeah.

605
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

606
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 4: Maybe McDaniels is the guy they trade.

607
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's different.

608
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's I think more teams would be interested in

609
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 4: McDaniels than can ye.

610
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 2: I would assume. So, I mean, what does he make

611
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 2: not forty nine million dollars?

612
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 4: He also makes a lot. They spend a ton of

613
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 4: money on their three four five.

614
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 2: They did all those extensions. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, and

615
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 2: yeah Conley was one of them as well. We'll see,

616
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 2: we'll see. Let's hear from you, though, what do you

617
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 2: think the Wolf should do? Mainly, do you think they

618
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 2: should look to actively trade Karl Anthony Towns like this

619
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 2: summer to get some sort of return. What is that

620
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 2: and what team is that and what players and we

621
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 2: can talk about that as the summer goes on. Let's

622
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 2: talk a little bit about the finals, because Game one

623
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 2: tips off on Thursday, June sixth at eight thirty pm

624
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 2: Eastern on ABC, so less than a week from today now,

625
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 2: which is okay. We're going to do our big NBA

626
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 2: Finals preview and prediction pod on Monday. So we'll watch tape,

627
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 2: we'll crunch tape all weekend long, and we will break down,

628
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 2: you know, the stars and the X factors and the

629
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 2: matchups and the keys to that series between the Mavericks

630
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: and Celtics here in the Finals. We'll do that on Monday.

631
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 2: But I just want to throw at you right now,

632
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 2: what are you most excited about, Trey, About this Dallas

633
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 2: Boston twenty twenty four Finals matchup.

634
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 4: There are two players in NBA history who averaged thirty

635
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 4: points per game in the playoffs, Michael Jordan and Luka Doncic.

636
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 4: And he's playing in his first finals, and as we've

637
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 4: seen in this game, he loves getting trash talked. Yeah,

638
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 4: and there is no bigger trash talking fan base than

639
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 4: the Boston Celtics. I cannot wait to see what this

640
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 4: guy does on literally the biggest stage in the NBA

641
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 4: with the crowd on him from the jump, they'll obviously

642
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 4: be going at Kyrie as well. So maybe he takes

643
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 4: Umbridge at the way they're treating Kyrie and decides the

644
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 4: throat in their face, he's going to be the best

645
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 4: player in the series. The question mark is does the

646
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 4: best team beat the best player in both NCAA title games.

647
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 4: It did, Caitlin Clark. She was the best player for Iowa,

648
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 4: they didn't win. Zach Edy was the best player for Perdue,

649
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 4: they didn't win. Obviously, these are twenty year olds, not

650
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 4: quite the same lucas an old man at twenty five,

651
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 4: and man, I cannot wait to see what this guy

652
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 4: does getting his first taste of a championship round.

653
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, yeah, whether or not he can pull it off.

654
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 3: And the same goes for Tatum to some degree, whether

655
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: or not he can get his first ring. But it's

656
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 3: a great point about superstars versus team because you can

657
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 3: look at Luca and Kyrie and say, Okay, they've got

658
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 3: the two best players if you if you want to

659
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 3: go in that direction, they obviously have the best player

660
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 3: so far throughout this postseason. Call Kyrie, you know slightly

661
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 3: better to okay, fine that they're better than the Tatum

662
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 3: Brown but three four five Celtics clearly have the best

663
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 3: three four five with Holiday, Derek White and obviously Kristaps

664
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 3: porzingis that remains a question mark here because we do

665
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 3: not know what he's going to be. But Game one

666
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 3: is very, very, very interesting because we've talked a lot

667
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 3: about Minnesota and how they failed in Game one and

668
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 3: Dallas just got the momentum and Boston tends to play

669
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 3: well in game ones, sometimes sometimes not. We saw what

670
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,360
Speaker 3: they did to Indiana and they had needed Jalen Brown

671
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 3: shot from the corner to be able to op them.

672
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 3: So game was important because if Dallas is able to

673
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 3: steal Game one, which as possible as porzingis maybe not

674
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 3: being quite right. Yeah, that's interesting. So this series is

675
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: obviously interesting from the get go.

676
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 2: And we have like the revenge factors here of Kyrie

677
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 2: playing the Celtics. We all know that ended on a

678
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 2: sour note back in twenty nineteen. He did the old

679
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,680
Speaker 2: sort of reverse or one to eighty on his pledge

680
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 2: to sign an extensions and he sort of damn near

681
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: quit on the team in the postseason. Then with the Nets,

682
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 2: he's stomping on the logo, he's flipping the bird to fans.

683
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 2: So he goes back to take on Boston. That's gonna

684
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 2: be a story obviously for the next week. And then

685
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 2: on the flip side of that a little less so,

686
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 2: but the Porzingis factor playing with Dallas, playing with Luca

687
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: sort of like didn't really gel personality wise, didn't go

688
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 2: well on the court, and so he gets a chance

689
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: at revenge. You know, a lot of people are joking

690
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 2: that this is the Grant Williams NBA Finals. You trade

691
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 2: Grant Williams, You're in the finals. I can be very

692
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 2: funny if they have him in attendance at every game.

693
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 2: Tres as Batman, and somebody said he should be like

694
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 2: in a different part of the arena, like up in

695
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: the raft is like sting just in his Batman mask

696
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 2: watching this this fun I like that we're about to

697
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 2: crown our sixth different champion in six years here too,

698
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 2: no matter what goes down, be it Dallas or Boston. Yeah,

699
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 2: I'm hyped for this and like I'm okay with Like

700
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 2: I'm okay with this break. You know, we got the

701
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 2: whole weekend here. Yeah, there's no basketball and then Monday

702
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 2: we'll do the preview podcasts and then yeah, sure, maybe

703
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,959
Speaker 2: there's a day extra more than I would like. But

704
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 2: come Thursday, we'll be chopping at the bit for for

705
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 2: you know, NBA basketball here and and we'll be ready

706
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 2: to go and both and like it's good, both teams

707
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 2: are gonna be fairly evenly rested. Right. Feels like everyone

708
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: for the most part, is gonna be healthy. I would

709
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 2: imagine Porzingis is gonna go Obviously Lively came back, so

710
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 2: that's good as well. Yeah, this should be a battle.

711
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it feels I don't I don't think there's

712
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of people picking Team X in

713
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 2: four or even five. It feels like it'll be a

714
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: you know, in one of those six or seven type series.

715
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, super excited. Like, as you said, we haven't had

716
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 3: a repeat team win since the Golden State Warriors, so

717
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 3: it feels like it, you know, it's it's been a while.

718
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 3: It's fun just to have these this fresh blood on

719
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 3: the West side, not so much on the East side

720
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 3: that's been there before. But it is interesting to see

721
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 3: who the MAVs will give rings to if they do

722
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 3: win it all, Like will they send one to Grant Williams.

723
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 3: I'm interested. I mean they should send one.

724
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: Grant Williams can't lose sweet, I'm getting one.

725
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 3: Also, the guy that should get one is Kyle Kuzma.

726
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 3: Sounds weird, but he declined to trade. He said. He

727
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 3: said that front office came up to him. Michael Winger

728
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 3: came up to him and said, do you want to

729
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 3: be traded to the Dallas Mavericks And he said no, thanks,

730
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 3: said I want to be here. So they had to

731
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 3: go get pee Jay Washington. Dallas Mavericks should definitely send

732
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 3: one to Kyle Cousman. Put it in the mailbox.

733
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 4: One more storyline, Handsome Horford versus Gorgeous Gafford, a new

734
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 4: schools old school battle of the gorgeous eyes. Everybody knows

735
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 4: about Al Horford's eyes. We're sleeping on Daniel Gaffer's eyes.

736
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 4: He's got long lashes, just like Al, who comes out

737
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 4: on top.

738
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 2: Wow, you know, forget jump ball like a little stare

739
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:09,280
Speaker 2: off to decide who gets the first ball, staring longingly

740
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:13,479
Speaker 2: into gorgeous eyes. Well, I guess Porzingis is back. He'll start.

741
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,959
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's great. It's an underrated storyline. I'm talking

742
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 2: about that you'll you'll start seeing those storylines by Wednesday,

743
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: when people media star running out of talking about and

744
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 2: stuff like that. All right, we'll leave it there. Like

745
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 2: I said Monday's podcast, we will do our NBA Finals

746
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 2: preview and predictions. We'll talk about the X factors and

747
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,240
Speaker 2: the keys to the series and all that good stuff.

748
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 2: But right now, let's get to worst of the Week,

749
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:38,320
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen.

750
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 3: The worst of the week. Four nominees, a contract negotiation

751
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 3: just dies, a writer calls a current All Star the

752
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 3: most annoying player in the game. And a couple ESPN

753
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,240
Speaker 3: moments this week. Let's start with ESPN because as Jalen

754
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 3: Brown was accepting his Eastern Conference Finals MVP, everybody was

755
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 3: celebrating all the Jason Tatum did try and celebrate. He

756
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 3: put his arm in, but there are a couple of

757
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,760
Speaker 3: people in the way. And now on ESPN, Mike Greenberg

758
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 3: brought up that this is interesting because it was in

759
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 3: their morning meeting. He said, you know, before we did

760
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 3: our show here in the morning meeting, you guys kind

761
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,479
Speaker 3: of implied that he was saying to this other people.

762
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 3: You guys implied that Jason Tatum seemed disappointed and That's

763
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 3: when Eudonis Hasmum said, I thought Tatum was shocked.

764
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 2: That he didn't win East Finals MVP.

765
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, that he he was just more he was more surprised,

766
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 3: that's what you Donalds hasm said, he was more surprised.

767
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,239
Speaker 3: So what do you guys think on the implication, This

768
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 3: is an implication that Jason Tatum was not happy with

769
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 3: Jalen because there were tweets and headlines afterwards. The discussion

770
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 3: was was Jason Tatum disappointed?

771
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

772
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 3: Even though Mike Greenberg didn't say Jason Tatum was disappointed,

773
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 3: He didn't come out and say that, but he implied

774
00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 3: that yeah, yeah, because it was and that they had

775
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 3: that came from their meeting, you know, their production meetings

776
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 3: sort of.

777
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 2: It goes. It goes from, oh, look at Tatum, he's

778
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,720
Speaker 2: not he's not as happy as the other Celtics players

779
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:14,359
Speaker 2: that Jylen Brown is getting the MVP of these finals. Thus,

780
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 2: maybe that means there's some conflict between the two star

781
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 2: guys on Boston. Who's the real alfa of this? That's

782
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 2: what happens. This is insane. Who gives a fuck about

783
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: these finals MVPs for the conference finals?

784
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 4: This is like this is what Jalen Brown did.

785
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 2: He was happy, Yeah, he was pretty pumped. But this

786
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 2: is what three years old now? Uh, and it's cool

787
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,839
Speaker 2: we honor like Larry and Magic. I've only been around

788
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 2: for a couple years. It might be only two years. Okay, Yeah,

789
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 2: I'm two or three years old. And I mean it's

790
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: really silly when you sort of think about it. I

791
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: guess they do it in baseball, right do they given him?

792
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:46,239
Speaker 4: Yeah?

793
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 3: But you get one for the Division Series to this

794
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 3: is a well, I guess this is year three because

795
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 3: I'm looking at Tatum. He did it in twenty two,

796
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 3: the first one.

797
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like I already got one, so why

798
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,160
Speaker 2: would he be upset? Step must you're giving you're giving

799
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,960
Speaker 2: the worst of League nominee to the espn Uh. You know,

800
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 2: production meeting and the and the running with this narrative, right,

801
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 2: that's what we're doing.

802
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 3: I mean, there wasn't a sprint, but it was. It

803
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 3: was a conversation that they brought up on Get Up.

804
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 3: It's a morning show where they discussed the biggest things

805
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 3: from the night before, And it was a discussion. Yes,

806
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 3: and quite honestly, we all get into it. We all

807
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 3: examine everything that's on every show. Jason Danam actually was happy.

808
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 4: He was his smile was not big enough. He was

809
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 4: gritting cheek to cheek, not ear to ear, And for

810
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,279
Speaker 4: that reason, they need to split up the j's before

811
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 4: the finals exactly, Like what's he supposed to do?

812
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 2: Like, can I have the mic please, Lisa, I'd like

813
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,760
Speaker 2: to say something. I would like to take this moment

814
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 2: to congratulate Jalen on his first East Finals m v P.

815
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 2: Now we both have one like it's it's pretty insane. Yeah,

816
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 2: the the vote was five to four. I mean it

817
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 2: was close. It was very, very close. They were both

818
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 2: deserving of it. You know, I think either of those

819
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 2: guys would gladly trade this in for a championship. So, yeah,

820
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 2: this is a good nominee.

821
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 3: It's a good nominee. It ain't gonna win though, second

822
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 3: nominee here, Yeah, it's clear it should have win. Second nominee.

823
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,360
Speaker 3: It's got a chance here. Writer Abe Beam of Espia

824
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 3: Nation he win at Karl Anthony Town's Real Hard called

825
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 3: him the most annoying player in the game. He went

826
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 3: all in and didn't really have a lot to do

827
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 3: with basketball. He called him a dufus who acts strangely

828
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 3: and obnoxiously obvious to being the oh sorry, excuse me,

829
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 3: oblivious to being the butt of the joke. A player

830
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 3: who is grading whether he is talking what he thinks

831
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 3: is effective trash or whining to the refs, or pouting

832
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 3: on the sideline, or making a bizarre read when he

833
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 3: attracts a double team okay, that's basketball, or most famously,

834
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 3: fouling at the worst possible time for no coherent reason,

835
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 3: putting his team in the bonus and his ass on

836
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 3: the bench when he's needed most so. Thoughts on this

837
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: writer's position of Carl Anthony.

838
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 2: As the most annoying guy in the NBA. Yeah, I

839
00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 2: thought that was great Williams.

840
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 3: Which, well, well he gave him, Yeah, yeah, Grant Williams.

841
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 3: I guess he's sort of been forgotten this season, but

842
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 3: he gave him the first place trophy, with Rudy Gobert

843
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 3: coming up in second essentially. Oh yeah, so Rudy Gobert

844
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 3: is definitely the one who he gets ridiculed most. I

845
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,919
Speaker 3: would say, Rudy, yes, yeah, so, but he said they've

846
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,240
Speaker 3: got the one too, I suppose.

847
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 4: Now.

848
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

849
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,320
Speaker 4: Tim McMahon wrote a piece on people not liking Rudy Gobert.

850
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 4: And now we've got an espionation one on people not

851
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 4: liking Carl Anthony Towns, and this is why people love

852
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 4: Anthony Edwards because he is not either of those two guys.

853
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 4: I did love this line. Cat's confounding because he's incredibly

854
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 4: skilled and athletic, but also uncoordinated, often seeming less like

855
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 4: he's moving on his own volition than being piloted by

856
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 4: a small, gifted rat manipulating his body from a perch

857
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 4: on his head, nestled inside of his hair. So when

858
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 4: Carl Anthony Towns has a bad game, I'm calling a catato.

859
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 2: I saw that going on. It's good, it's good. It's like,

860
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 2: I mean, that's well written.

861
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 3: But I enjoyed the read I got.

862
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 2: Do you think do you think Carl Anthon town said?

863
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 2: We don't really know him? I mean we've had like

864
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 2: the very very small interactions with him. Do you think

865
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 2: he's corny? Because that was sort of my takeaway that

866
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 2: this writer, it was like, he's just a corny dude.

867
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 4: He's a goofy guy.

868
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:23,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

869
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 4: Yeah. He compared him to Tom Cruise, Anne Hathaway and

870
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 4: Bradley Cooper. I'm sorry this felt like a throwback to me.

871
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 4: This seems like like a twenty twelve sort of piece

872
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 4: see back in the Big Time blog days, or maybe

873
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,719
Speaker 4: like a Bill Plashky sort of takedown piece.

874
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 2: It's better than some anonymous source saying I hate Carl

875
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 2: Anthony Towns. He's corny, and they're like, well, who the

876
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 2: hell said that? You know, put your name to it,

877
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 2: is my point, and he did. He wrote it. Yeah,

878
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,839
Speaker 2: you can disagree with it for sure, and maybe he

879
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 2: went too far in your opinion, like like too extreme

880
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,760
Speaker 2: with it, but you know he dislikes.

881
00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: Him Cruise hath Way in Cooper. Interesting.

882
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 4: I thought that was like the I actually thought that

883
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 4: was the biggest diss on Bradley Cooper Cooperway.

884
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 3: Okay, I get the comparison.

885
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 4: People didn't like the Mace strug. They didn't like how

886
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 4: hard he went for the oscar.

887
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 2: And and I watched it and those people were right.

888
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 4: I didn't watch it. Yeah, it looked dumb. Yeah.

889
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:25,359
Speaker 3: Anyways, to summarize beam here, he really doesn't get into

890
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 3: basketball whatsoever, and not that he cares about it. I

891
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 3: mean that's not the point of this piece. Uh, but

892
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 3: you got it. At least mentioned he was amazing in

893
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 3: Game seven to knock out the reigning champs. Right, he

894
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 3: definitely did that. He was a huge part of their

895
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:43,479
Speaker 3: one win in the conference finals as well. Oh yeah,

896
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 3: he got to a freaking conference finals. So there's that part.

897
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 3: I know. I come on here and I discuss Carlington

898
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 3: Down's not looking at the referee, kind of looking down

899
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 3: as he complains about the refs, like everything physical about

900
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: a player. I remember when we got to talk to

901
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 3: him at Summer League. When he entered the league, he

902
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: was known as this perfect media personality.

903
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he was polished November. No wonder that guy

904
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 2: went number one, not just because of his basketball skill,

905
00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 2: but like, wow, that seems like a franchise guy.

906
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 4: Wasn't he like a kid's sideline reporter back on the

907
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,280
Speaker 4: day as well, like through high school and stuff.

908
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then he went to the Dominican team that

909
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 3: he was playing when he was sixteen years old and

910
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:23,720
Speaker 3: was just he was the maestro of a media interview.

911
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 3: He was just really good at me.

912
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 2: Thought, damn, that was the maestro.

913
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 4: Going for the Emmys, just like Bradley didn't come through,

914
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 4: you know, tough stuff. I actually feel like Kat found

915
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 4: peace this year, like yeah, yeah, figure going through the

916
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 4: Dominican team, I thought was huge for him coming back

917
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 4: to the Wolves and like settling into the second dairy

918
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 4: scorer role in the secondary face of the franchise. Even

919
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 4: though he predates Anthony Edwards. He's obviously gone through a

920
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 4: lot of stuff personally off the court as well. But

921
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 4: you know, when you complain to the refs, it's gonna

922
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 4: rile some people up. I do believe it's not dissimilar

923
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,239
Speaker 4: to like how Halliburton got treated. You know, it's like

924
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,880
Speaker 4: we love you on the way up, but then when

925
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:10,840
Speaker 4: you go a little too far, sorry buddy.

926
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And that's I think what to me, this

927
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 3: piece comes after you. It's yeah, it is feels like

928
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:21,799
Speaker 3: an old old blogisphere piece. You're just insaulting some guy,

929
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 3: just ripping some guy. But it's also like the ESPN

930
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:28,399
Speaker 3: conversation with the first nominee. It's just people are sort

931
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 3: of bored about basketball, like they don't want to get

932
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 3: into the basketball because I think, as you were just saying, Trey,

933
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 3: this was a good year for Karl Anthony Towns as

934
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 3: a secondary player, not having to be that number one

935
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 3: guy anymore. And that's why the Minnesota Timberwolves. I think

936
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,359
Speaker 3: are just gonna roll that thing back because it looks

937
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 3: pretty damn good. Anyways, Okay, so those two don't win,

938
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 3: we got two more nominees. The third nominee is the

939
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 3: Sacramento Kings. This is interesting. The Kings are negotiating an

940
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 3: extension with head coach Mike Brown, but those talks are

941
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 3: done for now. Apparently he's got one guaranteed year left

942
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: on his contract negotiating an extension. This is the man

943
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 3: who took him to the playoffs for the first time

944
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 3: in sixteen years. And after that came out that the

945
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 3: table talks had been put aside. The news came out

946
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,720
Speaker 3: that the talks were done, and then Trumps already reported

947
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 3: that Secramentary basically offered a deal that would rip up

948
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 3: the last year of that contract and include three years

949
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 3: twenty one million dollars from now. The deal also includes

950
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 3: potential bonuses that could increase the value to twenty seven million,

951
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 3: but they.

952
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 2: Sail seven million dollars per year and then bonuses. Possibly

953
00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 2: what the.

954
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 3: Offering was what Schams has reported, yes, seven and the

955
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 3: other it's cheap, yeah. And the other side is apparently

956
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 3: Brown wants more like a Bodenholzer contract that he just

957
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 3: signed a double digit per year for a coach, like

958
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 3: a ten million like what boontonholes we just signed. Yeah,

959
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 3: it's cheap in today's NBA things have changed. But anyway,

960
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,360
Speaker 3: thoughts on the Kings and Brown not coming to a

961
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 3: deal here, Yeah.

962
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 2: That's a good nominee. I mean they're being cheap. They are.

963
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,919
Speaker 2: I mean again, this does not count against your salary cap.

964
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 2: This is literally just your ownership and your team, your franchise,

965
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 2: doling out these contracts. And that does seem a little low.

966
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 2: I mean with the contracts going the way they are

967
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 2: with these coaches, this is what half of what lou

968
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 2: just got? Is that right? Yeah? Ball part? I mean

969
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 2: that when you say it like that, that's a little No.

970
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 2: He's got championship. I get all that. But Mike Brown

971
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,440
Speaker 2: is proving to be a pretty good coach for a

972
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 2: long time. Obviously took this team to Heidslee hadn't been

973
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 2: to in almost, you know, over fifteen years. Not that

974
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,239
Speaker 2: it was like climbing Mount Everest or anything, but like

975
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,400
Speaker 2: obviously sniffing some success and creating a bit of a culture.

976
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 2: This feels like they're just low bawling them and he's like,

977
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 2: come on, man, pay me, Like what a the market

978
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 2: says I'm probably worth?

979
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 4: But Lobo, you mentioned like ten million dollars for Budenholzer.

980
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 4: He's got a championship. Yeah, Greg Popovich is the highest

981
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 4: paid coach. He's got a championship. Eric Spoltro makes a lot,

982
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,360
Speaker 4: He's got multiple championships. Steve Kerrz got championships. Doc Rivers

983
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 4: has championships. Mike Brown does it have a playoff series

984
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,120
Speaker 4: win to his name? Is he worth what the championship

985
00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 4: coaches are? Probably not?

986
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, the problem is Monty Williams.

987
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 4: The problem is Monty Williams. But they had to pay

988
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:10,960
Speaker 4: him that much money because he didn't want to coach

989
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 4: the team as you saw this season. Yeah, right, But

990
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 4: when that happens, we said went to the final though

991
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 4: he's been to the finals. But we remember we said

992
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 4: it at the time, like, oh, Monty Williams getting this deal,

993
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 4: all these coaches are going to want to rip up

994
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,240
Speaker 4: their deals and be like, well, I'm deserving of nearly

995
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 4: that much or more than him, and like that's what's

996
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,520
Speaker 4: going to happen. And you know, as the players get

997
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,360
Speaker 4: more and the teams get more because of all the

998
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 4: influx of money coming in with eventually the new television deal,

999
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 4: they will get more and probably should you know, sort

1000
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,279
Speaker 4: of along the same lines as the player. So I

1001
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,800
Speaker 4: think he's well, he obviously feels he's deserving of a

1002
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,319
Speaker 4: little bit more than this, and I can't knock him.

1003
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't know exactly what's going on with in

1004
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 3: those negotiations at all, but uh, I just find this

1005
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 3: all fascinating. How much is too much for an NBA

1006
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,800
Speaker 3: coach these days? Like it is becoming sure a lot.

1007
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 3: And yes, the conversation sort of came up because lou

1008
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 3: got fourteen million per year, Boonholzer got ten per year.

1009
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 3: Maybe that actually hurts the front office and what they're negotiating.

1010
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 3: Maybe that bumps up how much Mike Brown is going

1011
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,280
Speaker 3: to get. Maybe they should have just signed it earlier.

1012
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:23,359
Speaker 3: Either way, you're right, it doesn't count against the salary cow.

1013
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 2: I don't care some billionaire loses some more millions. Who cares?

1014
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 2: I mean, how many coaches did this team have, this

1015
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 2: franchise have? Yeah, like over like the last whatever twenty years.

1016
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 2: It's like insane and you finally have one and we

1017
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,319
Speaker 2: just talked about the other day this idea of like

1018
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 2: maybe get a coach there and give them a bit

1019
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 2: of a runway to like establish an identity and obviously

1020
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 2: try and build some success there. And he has he

1021
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 2: has for Sacramento a little bit, and it looked like

1022
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 2: it was going the right way. And if they lose him,

1023
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 2: let's say over because they're like pinching pennies and it's

1024
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,440
Speaker 2: like they lose them over a million or something like

1025
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 2: that or whatever, two million per year, then that's a

1026
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 2: really bad look in my opinion sort of the also

1027
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 2: to the rest of the league as well.

1028
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it just it reminds everybody of when

1029
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,399
Speaker 4: they had Michael Malone and he was getting the best

1030
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 4: out of DeMarcus Cousins and then Cousins got sick and

1031
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 4: they ended up firing Mike Malone. Right right, I don't know, man.

1032
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 4: The Kings, where are they going? Honestly, where are they going?

1033
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 4: They lost in the first round last year, didn't get

1034
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 4: out of the play in this year. The West is better,

1035
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:23,240
Speaker 4: They're getting better. How do the Kings improve? Hoping Keegan

1036
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 4: Murray becomes an All Star because otherwise they don't really

1037
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 4: have anything to improve. Their team. So maybe the Kings are,

1038
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,000
Speaker 4: like the writings on the wall, were taking a step back.

1039
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 4: They should probably trade their guys Fox and some bonus. Honestly,

1040
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 4: they should because they're stuck in the middle right now.

1041
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 4: Any other team, if they had had any sort of

1042
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 4: playoff success in the past fifteen years, you'd be like,

1043
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 4: it's time to try something new.

1044
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, this year didn't go as well as last year,

1045
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 3: that playoff year. This year they were finished ninth. They

1046
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,160
Speaker 3: were forty six and thirty six, a decent record, very

1047
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,600
Speaker 3: good record, and then middle of the pack offense and defense.

1048
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 3: They dropped off offensively, got better defensively. The question is,

1049
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 3: does Zach does VVAK round A DV have as much

1050
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 3: money as Steve Bomber. The answers, no, he doesn't, So

1051
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 3: Steve just just lay in some cash for ty lu I.

1052
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,919
Speaker 3: Guess okay, final nomine Maybe those three don't win at all.

1053
00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 3: Maybe this fourth one does it for you. ESPN's Kendrick Perkins,

1054
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 3: this one's funny because he said his biggest regret in

1055
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 3: media is voting Rudy Gobert for Defensive Player of the Year,

1056
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:24,800
Speaker 3: and that you know quote Rudy has tarnished the award.

1057
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 3: He also said he keeps on getting played off the

1058
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,680
Speaker 3: floor in the playoffs, and he said at seven to three,

1059
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:34,919
Speaker 3: he only has three blocks through the first three games

1060
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 3: of the conference finals. Rudy Gobert is not seven to three,

1061
00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,239
Speaker 3: that's for sure. He's definitely short, far shorter, at least

1062
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 3: two inches shorter. And he did say it after Rudy

1063
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 3: Gobert was bombed on by Luka Dancich obviously for that shot.

1064
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 3: So thoughts on Perk speaking out on Rudy Gobert as

1065
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,719
Speaker 3: Minnesota goes down oh three to Dallas, how do we

1066
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 3: feel about this one? Because as the media just looking

1067
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,480
Speaker 3: for things, just looking for some some thread to pull here,

1068
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 3: not so much on the basketball floor, but I guess

1069
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,719
Speaker 3: this is the basketball floor. But anyway, well your take

1070
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 3: your take care you.

1071
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 2: Saw the greatest score right now in the league hit

1072
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 2: a three on them and was like, I made a

1073
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 2: huge mistake.

1074
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 3: Of a regular season award, which doesn't really have anything

1075
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 3: to do with the playoffs. It doesn't anyway, thoughts On

1076
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,320
Speaker 3: Perk speaking out on Rudy Gobert.

1077
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 2: Has tarnished the award.

1078
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 4: Rudy's stops never get remembered, but the failures are bad really,

1079
00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,320
Speaker 4: Like look at Game two, the possession before Luka Dancic

1080
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 4: hits the game winner. Rudy Gobert forces the stuff in

1081
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 4: the exact same scenario, but the Mavericks are like, guess

1082
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 4: what they're gonna switch, and I'll cook them this time.

1083
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 4: But I do kind of think that Gobert will not

1084
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 4: win another Defensive Player of the Year because of this

1085
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 4: kind of stuff. Like, yeah, I'm sorry, man, if you

1086
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 4: can't be on the floor in the last one minute

1087
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,919
Speaker 4: of an important playoff game, it looks bad. You gotta

1088
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 4: agree there. Also, when Benyama's gonna start winning him is

1089
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,839
Speaker 4: the big thing. But I don't know how many times

1090
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,240
Speaker 4: could it happen is the question for me. I agree,

1091
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert is awesome during the regular season when you're

1092
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 4: not changing your game plan for every game and when

1093
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 4: teams are not targeting you every single game. But when

1094
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:17,960
Speaker 4: it comes down to it, there are better defenders than

1095
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert in the biggest moments.

1096
00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 3: In that specific moment, Finchy, their head coach just has

1097
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:28,440
Speaker 3: to have their ball handler or sorry, the guy defending

1098
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:30,680
Speaker 3: Luka Doncic fight over the screen and be there, because

1099
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 3: what else is the center supposed to do against Luka Doncic,

1100
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 3: I mean if you get him on an island, Like.

1101
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 4: It's like, okay, so you're saying, coach around your defensive

1102
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 4: player of the.

1103
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,359
Speaker 3: Year, Well, let's say I understand that, but she's not.

1104
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 3: He can't guard forty feet? Who else can guard? Is

1105
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:48,800
Speaker 3: there another guy that you can name defensive player of

1106
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:51,240
Speaker 3: the Year that can guard against the best ball handler

1107
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 3: from the rim to beyond the three point line? Like

1108
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 3: it's just tough for anybody to do. Who else could

1109
00:51:57,800 --> 00:51:59,319
Speaker 3: do it? Is there a better defensive player the year?

1110
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,080
Speaker 3: I think that's what Perkins got to do is say, Okay,

1111
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:03,759
Speaker 3: this guy could have done it, This guy could have

1112
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 3: done it.

1113
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:04,719
Speaker 4: Who could have done it?

1114
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 3: Who could have be on an island? Yes, you have

1115
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 3: to coach defense better. Defense is hard. So I hear

1116
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 3: what you're saying.

1117
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 2: They make it just seem like and I think a

1118
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 2: part of it is the dislike for Rudy Gobert, as

1119
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,360
Speaker 2: we were talking about in one of those previous nominees

1120
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 2: when we were talking about kat Is, it's like he

1121
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,839
Speaker 2: can't be scored on. If he's ever scored on take

1122
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 2: away the Defensive Player of the Year. It's like, that's

1123
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 2: not how it works. It's like the flip side of

1124
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,719
Speaker 2: that is like, you know, the MVP, uh missing a

1125
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,439
Speaker 2: shot and they're like, nope, take it away from him.

1126
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 2: He missed a three. He was wide open, no one

1127
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 2: was even near him, No one's within six feet of him.

1128
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 2: He missed a three. How's he the MVP. It's like,

1129
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 2: what's have a little nuance here, man, Like, he's a

1130
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 2: great regular season defensive player. He turned them, helped turn

1131
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 2: them into the best defensive team. We thought it would

1132
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 2: happen a year prior when they got him, it didn't.

1133
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:54,280
Speaker 2: He did this year. He was, you know, very deserving,

1134
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 2: I believe of a defense play of the year. When

1135
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 2: you go into the metrics, now we're talking defense, so

1136
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 2: it gets tough to like who is the best. But

1137
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 2: when you look at all, you know, the limited amount

1138
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,680
Speaker 2: of shots at the rim, people are terrified to shoot

1139
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 2: out of the rim and all that. Like, they back

1140
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,879
Speaker 2: it up and have for his other wins as well,

1141
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 2: but it's just silly for him to pivot. He gave

1142
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:12,840
Speaker 2: him a vote for Defensive Player of the Year and

1143
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 2: then got scored on by Luka Doncic the leading scorer.

1144
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, but and he's like, oh.

1145
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 2: I have made a huge mistake.

1146
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,040
Speaker 3: That's a yeah. Yeah, the votes for all these awards

1147
00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:25,440
Speaker 3: to be Yeah, the Jokic one, I think is more

1148
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 3: of a real discussion than Island Man, because like you

1149
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,320
Speaker 3: put him on island the guys who were second, third, fourth,

1150
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 3: Victor wem Minyama second to voting. You don't think don

1151
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 3: is gonna burn him.

1152
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 4: Of course he's gonna burn him.

1153
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 3: He literally went side to side. It's a couple of

1154
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 3: times on a seven footer. I don't think there's anybody

1155
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 3: who can really are Bam who's third, Anthony Davis who's fourth.

1156
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,080
Speaker 3: I mean he was burned by Nikola Jokic, who definitely

1157
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 3: isn't as fast as Luka Doncic. He should have had

1158
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,439
Speaker 3: somebody smaller out there. And I don't know if these

1159
00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 3: guys are better defenders than Rudy Gobert. Like it's not,

1160
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 3: it's just it's a bad award. To really say it's

1161
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 3: a bad the award is tough to just say that

1162
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 3: guy should be able to do everything on the floor

1163
00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 3: defensively like that. That's just hard, hard on him.

1164
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:15,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, but Guys like Anthony Davis and Bam can do

1165
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 4: more than Rudy Gobert. They're better switch defenders than he is,

1166
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,759
Speaker 4: and that's more important in twenty twenty four. This is

1167
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 4: it's not a guy that can do everything.

1168
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:26,319
Speaker 2: This is always a team award. Yeah, it's always a

1169
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,879
Speaker 2: team award. It's like it's goes to usually the best

1170
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,919
Speaker 2: defender on the best defense or one of the best

1171
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 2: defenses more times than not. Hence why he's won it

1172
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 2: so many times. And that's how people vote on it.

1173
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 2: He voted on it. I just the part I don't get.

1174
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 2: Perkins gave him the vote. So what was he watching

1175
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 2: all year? And he was. He was impressed enough to

1176
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 2: give him a Defensive Player of Year vote.

1177
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 4: He's good in the regular season.

1178
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Well, luckily for him, there's no Western Conference

1179
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:56,560
Speaker 2: Finals Defensive Player of the Year award, all right? Who

1180
00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 2: would get it? Probably Gafford or maybe Lively, I don't know,

1181
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 2: And then one of them would be looking at the

1182
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,360
Speaker 2: other one winning it and be like, oh, look at

1183
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 2: Derek Lively. He's jealous of Gafford. His beautiful eyes got

1184
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 2: him Defensive Player of the Year in the Western Confersoce

1185
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 2: there's a good one. It's good nominee.

1186
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 3: It's a good nominee. Unfortunately, unfortunately is a good nominee.

1187
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 3: I think Evan Mobley wins it next year. He's good,

1188
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:23,640
Speaker 3: he's good at that. I'm trying to figure out somebody

1189
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 3: who could like stop Luca. I think Anthony Davis gets burned. Bam.

1190
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:28,359
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1191
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 4: I'm just trying to think Wemby Man Webby. He's like

1192
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:33,359
Speaker 4: Rudy Gobert, but he can move his feet and he's

1193
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,880
Speaker 4: four inches taller. He would have blocked Lucas shot.

1194
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,319
Speaker 3: Interesting, all right, I can't wait to see. Let's hope

1195
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 3: he makes the playoffs too, and then we'll just go

1196
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 3: through this again.

1197
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 4: No we won't, No, we won't. Wemby won't get cooked

1198
00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:47,399
Speaker 4: like that.

1199
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:48,439
Speaker 3: Not like that.

1200
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 4: Kennynt could have guarded him. He went on a guy

1201
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 4: from All the Times, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, who else

1202
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:56,080
Speaker 4: you want?

1203
00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 3: Well, come on, you're talking about it'd be like, okay,

1204
00:55:58,680 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 3: we're gonna go run one on one.

1205
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 4: We're switching to ken Ba Matumba out there. Yeah, that

1206
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 4: doesn't make sense in twenty twenty four, it doesn't make

1207
00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 4: any sense.

1208
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 3: No, no, it didn't make sense with three to Gobert totally.

1209
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:12,359
Speaker 3: All right, So some good nominees there, great Kings contract negotiation,

1210
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:16,440
Speaker 3: that's a good one. Writer saying Karl Anthony Towns is

1211
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 3: annoying the ESPN firm playing Tatum didn't like it Brown

1212
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:24,439
Speaker 3: winning in East Finals MVP? What Perkins. I think any

1213
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 3: Minnesota fan for talking trash to Doncic should also be

1214
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 3: included here. Oh yeah, the handkerchief. Man, I think you

1215
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 3: wanted I give you one more nominee.

1216
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:35,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, just to slip one in. Did you see this

1217
00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 2: that there was weather delays at the Dallas Fort Worth

1218
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 2: Airport on Thursday, and because of the weather delays, NBA

1219
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,919
Speaker 2: super fan Jimmy Goldstein could not get to Game five

1220
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,760
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis to watch the game in his courtside seat.

1221
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,440
Speaker 2: He says it was the first Conference finals game he

1222
00:56:55,480 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 2: had missed in thirty five years. That's insane if that's true.

1223
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 2: He's been in every Conference finals game last.

1224
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:06,879
Speaker 4: I know he does for that.

1225
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 2: That that that stopped me down in my tracks. But anyway,

1226
00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 2: that isn't abe DFW airport, So we're not going to

1227
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,239
Speaker 2: ship together.

1308
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:57,800

1309
01:00:57,800 --> 01:00:59,960
Speaker 2: that Mattio and JD do, I think you should have

1310

1325
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:07,040

01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 3: a really bad Italian voice with pizzas on a bagel,

1327

01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:21,000
Speaker 2: what it is. I truly hate it.

1383
01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 5: Toes, maybe like on the top of the toes, I

1384
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 5: don't love that too.

1385
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:31,200
Speaker 2: I don't see a lot of tattoo I know.

1386
01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 5: I just think, God, that must have hurt.

1387
01:05:33,240 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, even on the top of a foot.

1388
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think, yeah, give you theck because of that?

1389
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 2: What like tattoo artists think about doing those tattoos too, Yeah,

1390
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 2: doing someone's foot, Yeah, they got gloves on and stuff.

1391
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 4: But there's a lot of body parts.

1392
01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,680
Speaker 5: You get used to it.

1393
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:59,600
Speaker 2: Would you rather tattoo an ass crack or or a foot?

1394
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,479
Speaker 4: That's a tough call.

1395
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:08,480
Speaker 5: Yeah it would be awkward. The ass crack would be

1396
01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:12,560
Speaker 5: awkward potentially smelly, But the boniness of a foot, I

1397
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 5: feel like it would be hard to draw on. Anyways,

1398
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:19,320
Speaker 5: whatever I think we've exhausted. That uh tassy.

1399
01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:24,440
Speaker 3: It's funny because I'm gonna stick with feet, specifically passengers

1400
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 3: feet on the dashboard of a car. Oh yeah, not

1401
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:29,720
Speaker 3: a fan at all. They could be beautiful feet. They

1402
01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:34,480
Speaker 3: could be have a fresh pedicure done. Yeah, no, it's

1403
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:40,400
Speaker 3: a little Number one, it's disrespectful to the Vatn't that right? Yeah, exactly,

1404
01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 3: being lazy and putting some dirt on the dashboard of

1405
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:48,080
Speaker 3: a car. Number two also could be stinky. And number

1406
01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 3: three that's about it. I don't think there's any other

1407
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:56,919
Speaker 3: reason why. It's well, it's safety. The airbag goes up off. Yeah,

1408
01:06:57,120 --> 01:06:59,959
Speaker 3: how do you feel about those? You just your feet

1409
01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:00,959
Speaker 3: be in the air bag?

1410
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 5: Really no, they would it would. You would be kicking

1411
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,480
Speaker 5: yourself in the face with the force of the air bag.

1412
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 5: It happens a lot, actually.

1413
01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 3: Like you near your own face.

1414
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:16,360
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, how do you feel about windows down?

1415
01:07:16,840 --> 01:07:19,000
Speaker 2: Little toesies out the the windows.

1416
01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 3: That's fine, that's like a like a little dog face

1417
01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:26,200
Speaker 3: out the window. That's fun.

1418
01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:33,440
Speaker 2: I do call my feet dogs. Dogs are tired. Dogs

1419
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,520
Speaker 2: need to breathe you. I feel like that's better. Yeah,

1420
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:37,919
Speaker 2: it's more like cool road.

1421
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:40,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly.

1422
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 4: You're not gonna leave like prints on the window.

1423
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:43,960
Speaker 2: That's true too.

1424
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 5: Still dangerous, still dangerous, but you know what, some some

1425
01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 5: things in life are dangerous. But what I'm getting from

1426
01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 5: you guys is no problem with feet in general.

1427
01:07:53,640 --> 01:07:56,520
Speaker 2: No, I was not a Rex Ryan about it, but

1428
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:58,200
Speaker 2: I got no problem with feet.

1429
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 5: That is Stephan Curry about it, not a oh yeah.

1430
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,480
Speaker 2: He likes his wife's you know whatever.

1431
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:06,920
Speaker 3: No shame, no shame.

1432
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 5: There's no shame on this show.

1433
01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:12,080
Speaker 2: Feel it's definitely not kink for me. But yeah, I

1434
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:13,760
Speaker 2: do not create, like I just said, Like I have

1435
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,280
Speaker 2: bloody toenails. I'm ripping off. I'll take a look at

1436
01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:20,639
Speaker 2: your dogs growl. No issues, but a foot tattoo or yeah,

1437
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:22,600
Speaker 2: I'm sort of with tests on that one foot on

1438
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 2: the desk.

1439
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 5: All right, Trey, what about feet?

1440
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:31,560
Speaker 4: Don't you like just kidding gnarl toenails? Those are be honest.

1441
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 3: My own right now.

1442
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's just I'm busy, too busy because my toenails.

1443
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 4: I turned, my fingernails have time to get to the toe.

1444
01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:45,519
Speaker 4: But for me, it's lotion.

1445
01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:46,720
Speaker 3: Oh I hate it.

1446
01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:51,680
Speaker 4: You need it, You need it like sunscreen, maybe moisturizer

1447
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:55,120
Speaker 4: on your face. I hate the feel of it. Yeah,

1448
01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 4: I feel like even if it's non greasy, it's greasy.

1449
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:02,120
Speaker 4: You can always feel it even when it absorbs. So

1450
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 4: I've had to overcome my icks on the face when necessary,

1451
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:12,000
Speaker 4: cover my whole body and cream gladly. But yeah, lotion

1452
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 4: I'm never excited to put on. Motion never I want

1453
01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:17,320
Speaker 4: to put on the absolute minimum to get a solid coating.

1454
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:22,240
Speaker 5: It's also the water proof sunscreen that's the worst because

1455
01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:23,840
Speaker 5: it never feels like it's gone in.

1456
01:09:24,320 --> 01:09:25,520
Speaker 3: It takes hours.

1457
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 4: Yeah. Anyways, I put some lotion on my face today

1458
01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:33,600
Speaker 4: and like my hands still feel sweaty.

1459
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I need a paraffin dip. You always got to

1460
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,479
Speaker 2: ask somebody else to put it on for you. That

1461
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 2: was a topic on is this good? Correctly?

1462
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:48,880
Speaker 5: Speaking of Ick, he did not well, he didn't want

1463
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:54,240
Speaker 5: to put on any mail out there. Okay, finally no

1464
01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 5: the strangers stranger Well, yeah, I guess he did say

01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,400
Speaker 5: he would be maybe he's always had a thing for me,

1466
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 5: all right. Finally, the summer movie season started last weekend

1467
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:10,680
Speaker 5: and it was an unmitigated disaster. They're saying it was

1468
01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:15,240
Speaker 5: the worst Memorial Day weekend in decades, and to quote

1469
01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:18,360
Speaker 5: a meme. I once saw Trey Kirby did his part

1470
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 5: by seeing Furiosa, but I didn't do fucking shit. Guys,

Speaker 2: intent on tormenting his dad. However, their peaceful existence soon

1486
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:20,479
Speaker 2: comes crashing down when criminal mastermind Maxim Lemal escapes from

1487
01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,280
Speaker 2: prison and vows revenge against crew. That's what I'm getting

Speaker 2: It's so I'm gonna see that. But I wanted to

1495
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:48,320
Speaker 2: add JD. It's late summer. You could argue fall Interstellar

1496

Speaker 2: is coming back to theaters for the tenth anniversary, baby,

1497
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:54,920

Speaker 2: comes about ten years. Yeah, yeah, in twenty fourteen.

1499
01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:02,040
Speaker 5: Speaking a halfway, that's right, that's right.

1500
01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:03,960
Speaker 2: So we'll be going to see that.

1501
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:04,960

Speaker 5: Take the guy kids to see.

1503
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:08,760
Speaker 2: That, sure, sure, maybe they could figure it out.

1504
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:12,639
Speaker 5: Yeah maybe. All right, Dancy, what movie you're gonna see?

1505
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:14,920
Speaker 5: This movie this summer in the theater?

1506
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:18,479
Speaker 3: Well, after you're yelling about show business and Furiosa, I

1507
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:20,840
Speaker 3: looked it up. I'm definitely going to force Danielle to

1508
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:25,280
Speaker 3: see Furiosa because she's forcing me to see Twisters Twister

1509
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:29,439
Speaker 3: number two, because she loves Twister. She knows every single line,

1510
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:34,080
Speaker 3: every sound effect, the whole score, everything, everything, So she's

1511
01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:37,120
Speaker 3: Dynasty Twisters. I will do that with her, no problem.

1512
01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:39,640
Speaker 3: But I'm going to see Furiosa. What do you think

1513
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:42,120
Speaker 3: of Furiosa? It was great, liked it. I can't wait,

1514
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:42,960
Speaker 3: Ye can't wait.

1515
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 4: Much different, much different than Fury Road.

1516
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:48,439
Speaker 3: Good yourself, good looking forward.

1517
01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 2: To the difference between kill Bill and kill Bill two.

1518
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:52,040
Speaker 4: That's exactly right.

1519
01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:52,200
Speaker 2: Now.

1520
01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:55,720
Speaker 4: You know kill Bill one, it's just the action, NonStop

1521
01:12:55,760 --> 01:12:58,720
Speaker 4: action going through the eighty eight. Kill Bill two a

1522
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,800
Speaker 4: little bit more like a Western slower. You go a

1523
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:05,480
Speaker 4: lot more places, all right, Yeah, exactly.

1524
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,680
Speaker 5: Trey, you've already seen one, so you're sort of exempt.

1525
01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:11,559
Speaker 5: But hey, if you want to see another one, what

1526
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 5: would it be.

1527
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:14,320
Speaker 4: I'm seeing too. I'm definitely seeing Twisters. I can't wait.

1528
01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:17,200
Speaker 4: One of the movie going experiences of my life. I

1529
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 4: saw the original Twister at a drive in movie theater.

1530
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:20,200
