Man, man, why don't we have 7 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: h Why I can't Carmelo Anthony, DeMarcus Russell, DeMarcus Cousins, 8 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: Carmelo Anthony, Why why aren't whyren't Why aren't these players 9 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: still in the league. Dwight Howard still has good basketball 10 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: in them, Bro, tell tell me why these players aren't 11 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: in the league. 12 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: Well, One, you're talking about guys that march to the 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,319 Speaker 2: beat of their own drum. You can't just tell them 14 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: what to do, especially in the game of basketball or 15 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 2: something they've been doing their whole life. And I respect 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 2: that because you can't tell me nothing about basketball. 17 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: So I respect that. 18 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: And two, these guys play the game with a certain 19 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: passion and a certain way that they. 20 00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: Don't want in the NBA no more. 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 2: And and and I think that's why they're not in 22 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: the game. The Marcus Cousins is a big, mean fella. 23 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 2: He plays a game in a certain passion, a certain 24 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 2: way that you don't see in the game at all. 25 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: You know, Dwight Howard is a big, mean guy out 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: there in China where I think Chinaman getting seventy points 27 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: in fifty. 28 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: Rebounds you that don't belong. 29 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: And we talking about and then we go to Carmelo 30 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: future Hall of Famer, How is he not in the 31 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: league playing on none of these teams because he's a 32 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 2: dog and he's always did things his way and not 33 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: their way. So it's clear to see what they're doing. 34 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: They trying to control, you know, the other people's narrative. 35 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 2: But I guarantee you when all these people retire and 36 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 2: get a chance to tell you the story and what 37 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 2: they went through in their career, you're gonna see it 38 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: from a different side. 39 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: So it ain't about basketball. It ain't about coming out mellow, 40 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: being able to score with these young guys. It ain't 41 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: about you know, cousins being able to post up and 42 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: still be you know, effective, or be able to give 43 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: give a team something. You don't think it comes downs 44 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: to skill at the end of the day. 45 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: They definitely gonna come down to skill, because I's what 46 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: Embiid is doing right now. The Marcus Cousins is doing 47 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: that in Sacramento, putting up fifties in twenties. He been 48 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 2: doing that right. So so it's definitely not scared. I 49 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 2: definitely think it's personal. It's crazy, man, Man, are you watching? 50 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: I gotta get this off, man. You know, I watched 51 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 2: the games like I really sit there and I watch it. 52 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: You know when players watch, man, I'm watching the Nuances. 53 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 2: Last night, man, I was watching the Lakers play Minnesota, 54 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 2: and I watched Minnesota be without you know, Rudy. 55 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: Gobert, the kid mc daniel. You know what I'm saying, 56 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: The kid, you know, hit the wall, broke his hand. 57 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: I think Rudy fired on Kyle. You know what I'm saying. 58 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: I'm saying all this to set up that Minnesota was 59 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: a to me, full throttle with their team, right. But 60 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: this was the first time I think second half I 61 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: saw Bron human. He looked tired. Are you seeing the 62 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: same thing? Do you think Lebron James is coming to 63 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 1: the point where, I mean, we've always seen him in 64 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: a jetic stat We've always seen him in this youthfulness. Bro. 65 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: Last night he deferred. I counted. You know, I'm scouting too, Bro, 66 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: watching the game, I'm programmed to think like this. But 67 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: as I'm watching the game, Bro, he looks like he 68 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: was gassed the first time. 69 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: I think he at the age now where you know 70 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: we used to put scylind reports in for Braun. You know, 71 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 2: when we was playing that ship, he was just good 72 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 2: enough and that stronger energy thatyway, it didn't work. 73 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: I think now he's at. 74 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 2: The age we did slowed down scottlond reports starting to 75 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: work on him, sending them certain ways and put them 76 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 2: in certain positions. He don't have the energy or the 77 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: advantage to do it the whole game, you know what 78 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: I'm saying. He might can do it the first quarter 79 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 2: or something like that. But back when we was playing, 80 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: he can do it and he outthink the double teams 81 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 2: and all the shit and still be able to be effective. 82 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: But now I don't think he's at the age we 83 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: can still have the energy to force Sselff to get 84 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: through all. That's a true assessment. He looked gassed, or 85 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: he looks like he's slowing down to you, you dead on, 86 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: he looked a little gas straight up like whatever. He 87 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: wasn't even I think he hit one three in the 88 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: sequence of like seven minutes. The turnovers though he had 89 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 1: three turnovers that brought them back. Man, they got back 90 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: in the game, like and what that say? We know that. 91 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm just it just seems like I don't want to. 92 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to harp on 93 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: this too much. But it was a disconnector that I 94 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: that I caught. It wasn't a desire. It wasn't it 95 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: wasn't a go get the ball. You know, LA used 96 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: to cold going to get the ball, playing hero. You 97 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I hate to say that, but 98 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: I'm calling the spade a spade. That's the shadow he 99 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: end and he he didn't go yet it he didn't 100 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: have that job. You know what I'm saying. I don't 101 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: know if it's to play in. I don't know. I'm 102 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: just you know, I wanted to throw it at you 103 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: to see if you were seeing the same game. 104 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: He looked at little gas Bro and we know when 105 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: I when I play out, when you played, when I 106 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: made three turnovers in the row, it definitely came from 107 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 2: being tied. Fatigue, you know what I'm saying. Mentally, fatigue exactly. 108 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: So what shit as you're looking forward to? Uh, we 109 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: were just rapping about the sacond Golden State. I want 110 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: that's that's Uh, both teams at home. Uh, you got 111 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 2: a young team with the head coach now who's been 112 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 2: in Golden State the last couple of years, and one 113 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 2: rings there. He think he got the cheat code. He 114 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 2: think he got the cheat code. But the thing is, 115 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 2: though this was kind of messing with me. Mike Browno 116 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: is a defensive coach. The Sacramento's not good defense, So 117 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 2: I don't know how I don't know how the dynamic 118 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: gonna work. I think he just took the offensive there 119 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: and that's why they've been successful. But young team, all 120 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: the team with experience is I think that's the series 121 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: to watch. 122 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: Sack's confident, very Sack. I think Sack thinking like we 123 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: third like I think they thinking like that, like saying, 124 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: y'all did that last year? What's up? Like they are? 125 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: I smart? God, they're looking at when I watched them 126 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: play Bro, you have to be a better team. I 127 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: watched them play Milwaukee one time in Sack, and Milwaukee 128 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: had to be the better team as how they how 129 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: they flowed, they had the execute they had. They had 130 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: the run offense to be able to beat a young team. 131 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: You gotta be a solid team to beat a solid 132 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: young team, right, And that's what I think Golden State is. 133 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: Golden State I think has been has been food gazinging. 134 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: I think they've been they've been lollygagging. They've been they've 135 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: been pacing it for you're not wanting full times. You 136 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: got the form on how to win it. And I 137 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: feel like now everything's finna get slowed down by ten 138 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: to fifteen twenty possessions and now we're really find the 139 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: lock in. I love the kid, the Aarian Fox and 140 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: high years in the fourth quarter.

That's gonna be step gotta 176 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: guard Fox. He got the ball a lot. Fox gotta 177 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: goard step coming off screens and ship how his movement. 178 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: He got the stamina to do both. And Bonus and Draymond. 179 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 2: Can Draymond keep his focus because Sabon's gonna get it shot, 180 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 2: you know what, They gonna get his shots. Draymond might 181 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: get some tough calls. They need Draymond on the court. 182 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: You put Draymond or you put Mooey on it.

They gonna need that. 208 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: Don't need that, especially coming off the bench with and 209 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: I I got Pool. On the other end, I think 210 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: the Pool can have some big games series that we'll 211 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 2: be close. He gets some thirty thirty games and Step 212 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: get a thirty point game. They got a good chance 213 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 2: of walking the series. You know what I'm probably. 214 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: When I lose. I gotta say this was my favorite. 215 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: My man, the dopest series I'm looking to is the 216 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 1: Cleveland New York Knicks Silent sold Listen the narrative that 217 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: Donald Mitchell almost ended up as a nick. Do you 218 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: see how he's transferred like Cleveland was already on another 219 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: path of creating this crazy shout to JB too, Man, 220 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: JB don't get enough notoriety. He's had these kids, he 221 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: had these young men. Excuse me, my bad. He had 222 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: these young men playing like like on another level before 223 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: he even got there. I love the kid Garland, I 224 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: love Young Mobley, I love I didn't like Kevin Love leaving. 225 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: I thought kay Love fit perfectly in that. Man. I 226 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 1: thought he fit perfectly in there, man, and man, that 227 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: hurt me when he left there. But a getting donaldval Mitchell. Man. 228 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: I watched him in Utah when he was doing for 229 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: Utah and he was going unspoken. Nobody was saying, Man, 230 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: Donald Mitchell was doing some incredible shitt in Utah, and 231 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: then we're under the radar and what he's doing in 232 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: fucking Cleveland. Man, It's not surprising because I've seen him 233 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: hit big shots. I've seen him carrying the team. I 234 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: seen him go you know, seven minutes, four minutes in 235 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: a row where he's just going crazy. Right, So man, 236 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: listen and he ain't even know MVP talks, which is weird. 237 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 1: But this is gonna be a crazy series because to me, 238 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: New York's like New York's strength is that they play 239 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: hard in their hick coming at your ass for forty 240 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: eight minutes. Brunton is better than what we giving him credit. 241 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: We don't put him on those levels. But I think 242 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: he's proven night in night out, at least through the 243 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: regular season, even when he was in Dallas, Like, he's 244 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: been consistent to be that player that he is. And 245 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: you know with the emergent, obviously you got Randall, he's 246 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: not had some time to rest that ankle. Man, you 247 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: got quickly come into his own quickly might be six man, 248 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: I got Malcolm Brocklin, but quickly is one of them 249 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: deals to where he can come men and change the series. Man, 250 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to this Nick Cash here, that's that's 251 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: gonna be watched TV. That's gonna be popcorn TV. 252 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 2: So who yo, who Your's gonna make an impact? 253 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 1: Man? You know, like like I said, quickly. I'm watching 254 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: quickly get thirty in the Army can and uh Obi 255 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: toppling man. Obie Toplin got another level to him that 256 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: I think he just flirting with you know, you know, 257 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 1: I know it's a lot of pieces over there are 258 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: j Barren gonna be big for this series. We really 259 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: heard his name and a lot of stuff. Man, Kim 260 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: Mobley gonna have to come out of the ship. You 261 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He's random, he got the random matchup. 262 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: He's got to either balance that match up or come out. 263 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: He can't come like on his heels, man, he cannot 264 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: be on his heels this whole, this whole tournament, man, 265 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: I mean this whole, this whole series. He's gonna have 266 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: to come out and they're gonna have to play. I'm 267 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: looking for Garland to have a have a breakout. I 268 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: think Garland is one of these guys where you start 269 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: looking at Donovan Mitchell and giving him so much attention 270 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: that Garland Garland can give you a fifty ball, he 271 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: can give you a forty ball. You know what I'm saying, Man, Man, 272 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: this is gonna be it right here. You know, I 273 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: love I love all the all the matchups and and 274 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: and and probably the most anticipated playoffs with so many 275 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: different narratives. But this, this popcorn TV right here between 276 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: the Knicks and the Cabs gonna be good. Straight up. 277 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: You see the matchup man with the other grizzlies in 278 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: the Lakers. You know, I just. 279 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 2: I want to I want to say the Lakers man 280 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 2: so bad. But just the inconsistency of a d you know, uh, 281 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: I say, like I said, we talked about Braun. 282 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: He just looked gassed. 283 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, just god reports that people 284 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 2: put in on them and start to affect him, you know, 285 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: at his age. I just don't see them having enough 286 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: energy and having enough dogs to deal with grind City 287 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 2: Memphis is just they're just a different team. They cocky, 288 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 2: they confident, you know what I'm saying. They and they 289 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 2: heard all the talk. Everybody been saying, yeah, y'all, he't 290 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: done that yet. Yea ain't done nothing yet. Well, this 291 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: is a big step knocking the Lakers out first round. 292 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 2: This is a big step for them. When I guarantee 293 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 2: you they gonna be focusing ready. But I don't see 294 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: the Lakers having enough energy to beat the you know, 295 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,959 Speaker 2: in this series, right now really, Yeah, no, I don't. 296 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: Like I like Memphis in this series too. But you know, 297 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: I've been that, I've been that older player that's been 298 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: motivated off of the naysayers and they can't do and 299 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: we're older and all this other shit. Ad has taken 300 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: another step in these last like fifteen to twenty games, 301 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: too crazy. I actually think that they should go through 302 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: him more. I actually think that the office should go 303 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: through him. His should initiate they trapping down, move moo move, Bron, 304 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: get you some spot up, get you some spot up, 305 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: twos and threes, get you some cuts going to the basket, 306 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: some easy ones, stuff like this. But I think that 307 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 1: they're a program to do. And just like, like, you know, 308 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: I had to remind myself that I was watching a 309 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: seven and eighth seed playing each other. It looked like it. 310 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: It looked like seven and eight. Nobody looked polished or 311 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: nobody looked like, ooh, you know what I'm saying. So yeah, 312 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 1: I say that to say that if it was a 313 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 1: team that could because Bron come with so much star 314 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: power and he does have so much experience that we 315 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: think that, you know, at least one of these games 316 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: he gonna go into booth, right, you don't come out 317 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: with nothing, right, I'm expecting that right. 318 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 3: Right. 319 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: So if it's one team that can beat I think 320 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: give you at least a scare. Is this team just 321 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: because of their star power and if they can get 322 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: it going because they still got a young enough superstar 323 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: and Anthony Davis, they can carry you and get forty 324 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: and twenty and be that minute to where he getting 325 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: five blocks. The Jared Jackson Jr. And Anthony Davis matchup 326 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: is the key matchup to me. Steven Adams back, No, 327 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: he's out for the series. Now that's big. See That's 328 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. See, that's big. And then two, what 329 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: we're not talking about is that new Lakers. The new Lakers, 330 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: the Vanderbilts, the Bezels, the Beasley excuse me, Denzel Russell's 331 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. In Russell, he's confident around 332 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: this time, you know, got a lot of confidence in himself. Yeah. Man, 333 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: the Lakers are scary, but I don't know if they 334 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: can put it together. But I like their pieces. Beasley 335 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: and Vanderbilt alone make them tougher. Scrappier gets some extra 336 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: second third options and then being able to read. Yeah, yeah, 337 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: and then you know Memphis got those boys over there. 338 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: You know, Tyus Jones is probably the backup of the year. 339 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: Like he's I don't know why we don't talk about 340 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: with him six man, he's probably one he can start 341 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: on some teams, you know what I'm saying. But yeah, 342 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a fun match up to watch. I 343 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: think Memphis actually takes it though. I mean, and what 344 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: in six So Desmond Bain has to wear a special 345 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: shoe for his toe and they are Lebrons and it's 346 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: kind of yeah, I want to get your views on 347 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: the unspoken rule. And you know, obviously our generation are 348 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: totally different, you know generation, but we're speaking on today 349 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: in the current what's your views on you know, he 350 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: got to get a I guess it wasn't no other 351 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: shoes in the world that can do this special shit. 352 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: That's the thing. I'm pretty sure if he can do 353 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: it in that shoe, he can do it in other shoes. 354 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: So you know what these are Lebrons. Do you have 355 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: an issue with your teammate wearing the opposition and who 356 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: were getting ready to go into playoff battle with or 357 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: against wearing their shoes? I do, Bro, I do? I do. 358 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: I have a big problem with it because that's just 359 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: some mental shit with me. Like you know what I'm saying, Like. 360 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: I have friends. 361 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: That I hung out with, like Al Harington all summer, 362 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 2: but during the season, when we get ready to play them, 363 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: we ain't talking. The day before the game, when he 364 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 2: getting town, we probably you know what's up, Bron in timer, 365 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 2: we ain't hanging together. 366 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: Nothing. 367 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 2: We'll hang the night after the game, but before the 368 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 2: game were not talking or nothing. Even in the Big Three. 369 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: I was about to go to blows but. 370 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: Soon as the game but as soon as the game over, 371 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 1: I'm with him. 372 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 2: So I'm saying that to say, no, Bro, I'm not 373 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 2: having nothing on the of the opposing team, nothing related 374 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: to them having talked to them. 375 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: No, I want them to know that there's beef. It's up, 376 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: all the way up. So wearing the shoes is the 377 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: wrong thing to do because you sending the message whether 378 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: you whether you know it or not. Bron walk out 379 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: there and see you with his shoes on. In his mind, 380 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: I got it. He's a fan. 381 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: Right, And I ain't have my own shoe And I 382 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 2: had fans on other teams and I knew once I 383 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: saw him shaking my hand up, browing's up. 384 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: What you're doing out? Yeah I got I got a 385 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: good easy ten points on him because he more worried 386 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: about hanging out with meet and guard me wear shoes 387 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: and Bron gonna give you one hundred points, trust me, 388 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: don't do it. That's how I feel. That's the psychic color. 389 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: That's how I feel it, Bro, I mean, that's the 390 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: psychic color. You know what's crazy? Man? I'll probably during 391 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: the rest folks, let me go ahead and start so one. 392 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: I would never be in like another man's space, you 393 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like if Jack come in and 394 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: how he gotta prepare his music and being wild like 395 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: I played with some wild wild cats, right, And what 396 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: I had to learn is that everybody prepares differently, and 397 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: we we're gonna wear whatever, right. Uh, some guys will 398 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: wear their jewelry and have it out and be doing. 399 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 1: I gotta worry about Kevin first, right. Yeah. It's when 400 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: it's now we're getting the playoffs everything to play, we 401 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: tighten up everybody in this room. It gets tightened up 402 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: from the coaches. Like playoffs come, all the extra fat 403 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: gets trimmed because it can't be no distractions. That one 404 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,640 Speaker 1: distraction that you let the ball go out of bounce, 405 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: so that one possession you were supposed to do something 406 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: you didn't do, it might cost you the series. So 407 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 1: I've never gotten into Guy's space to where, uh where 408 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: I was really like adamant about certain things. Now, if 409 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: what he's doing is affecting us by wearing or doing 410 00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: some shit, then we gotta address it. But it would 411 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: probably give me motivation, like Chan shoot and I'll be 412 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: I'll be on that like like I wouldn't be sitting 413 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 1: there thinking that I actually say that, like, yeah, you 414 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: gotta you gotta guard code. You out here with cod 415 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: like like my generation, there was an unspoken rule and 416 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: then everybody we revealed Mike, Mike was Mike is King Kings, 417 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I'm talking about over our era, right, 418 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: But I would never think that Shaq would come out 419 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 1: there with some Jordans on, you know what I'm saying. 420 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: So it's like an unspoken route or a shot show 421 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: up with Ewing's one or Elajahuon's like we're not doing that, 422 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: Like everybody knew that. And then when you got your 423 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: own shoe that says something about who you are. And 424 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: then uh, when you saw somebody in your shoes like 425 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: just what Jack said. Ah yeah, the mental part of you. 426 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: You know, you you being in in someone's product as 427 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 1: me and you support that person. Now on that you're 428 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: a you're a fan, you probably gonna want me to 429 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: sign these like that hole straight up. So in that man, 430 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: my moves are reflecting that through you going through like 431 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: you seeing him different. Now you're going through him like 432 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: when you go to bang their mom through this moon 433 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: like like it's a whole it's a whole mental it's 434 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: a whole mental like dominance about that, you know what 435 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: I'm saying that you can't really explain. But to be 436 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: in that moment and see a motherfucker like riding dick 437 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: like that, you're like, man, like we're gonna say something. 438 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: Somebody came to you for the game. You know, I 439 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: know how you be, you be in your zone. Can 440 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: can we work out together? No? No, no, no, I 441 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: know you'd be like, get your bitch ass away from me. 442 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: Not even that dog. I'll be shocked that the niggas 443 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: actually talking to me like real ship. I hate to 444 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: say this, like this but man, we really looked at 445 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: it like war yup, straight up, like like like we 446 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: all were Spurs, bro. Like I was like, man, the 447 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 1: team you could. I was just then we might even 448 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: so subject so yeah, and it's cool. It's all right 449 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: cool and then if it go down, he got somebody, 450 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: I got his like it be man, man, listen, the 451 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: art of war is a real thing in professional sports 452 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: and a competition. When it's dog on dog, it's gotta 453 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: go like this, it's beast on beast. One way, bro, 454 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: this is what it is. And if you ain't built 455 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: for this, you can't be out here. So you know, 456 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: I say that to say it's a respect that comes 457 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 1: with everything, but also it's a it's a it's a 458 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: it's another like if you show up with another shoe 459 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: with that same procedure in that shoot and it ain't 460 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: bron Yeah yeah, yeah, So you know what I'm saying. 461 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: So there's some more contexts on that.

See, I knew it was one 465 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: I knew it was one, and listen, it's probably a 466 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: lot more, but don't want to actually say it or 467 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: don't want to actually have that, you know, because you 468 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 1: want to support your man too, And guess what if 469 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: this will help you shoot better, then let's get it. 470 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: Be a fun broun.

Oh man, shit, 501 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: Chris Paul good enough to cook an you got you 502 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 1: still gotta put like he's smart enough to manipulate get fouls. 503 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: He like, Chris Paul is probably a dark horse that 504 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: no one's got in no narratives. They got good. Chris 505 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: Paul is real shit that knows the game, knows anticipation, 506 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: he knows how to like point guards like Rondo, point 507 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: guards like Stockton. Isaid, they would manipulate like Mark Jackson, 508 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: great manipulate like their magic. They know how to manipulate 509 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: not only the plays but fouls and hey, how to 510 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: pace it how the refs are calling the touching versus 511 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: whatever they in the refs, is they politic like? He 512 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: knows how to actually get all that off and put 513 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: them in the early foul trouble and early shooting like 514 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: stuff like this that most people aren't even paying attention to. 515 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 2: But man, I like the Clippers, if they just Winnsday series, 516 00:23:58,160 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 2: Chris Paul has to be the fourth option. 517 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 1: He's gonna be the half. He has to be putting. Yeah, yeah, 518 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: he gotta because you gotta give eight and that love. 519 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: You know, Book and KD gonna be solid, they go. 520 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: They gotta be the stars. But you gotta give that 521 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: inside presence, that love. As you know, you don't throw 522 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: him no bones. He ain't gonna do nothing on the 523 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: other end, and that's where you need aid for them 524 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: to be. 525 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 2: Successful on the other end, getting all them rebounds, controlling 526 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 2: the paint, being big in the paint. But like you 527 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 2: already know, if you don't throw that big man in 528 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: bones run up and down that court, he ain't gonna 529 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 2: do nothing on the other. 530 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: Nothing, dude. The Clippers got a chance to win a 531 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: game in this series, yeah, because they got a deep team, 532 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: and I think Power can come. He can step in 533 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: for PG and have a big game. Pole plays hard. 534 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 2: You know, KDN the book ain't the best defenders, so 535 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 2: they can get their ship off. You know, Kawai gonna come. 536 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 2: He gonna shoot the motherfucker every time, you know what 537 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 2: I mean? What what what can Bone Holland do? What 538 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 2: can Zubac do? 539 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: Now? They got it? They got a pretty deep team, 540 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 1: you know, between all them, so we'll see what happens. 541 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: What you gotten serious, man, I ain't gonna ge as 542 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: the kid k and what probably five? Yeah? 543 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 2: No PG No PG though, I think that's a big 544 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 2: difference for me. But I haven't Paul George because Paul 545 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 2: George is gonna make book of work. You know, if 546 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 2: he making work like that, his offense gonna come down 547 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: a little bit. But he ain't got ship. 548 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: And then I'm expecting them to to balance each other 549 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: out right exactly that. Kawai kd fin to be watched. 550 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 1: Kawhi has to go dumb. He gotta be Toronto, Toronto. 551 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: He gotta be Toronto Kawhi. But do he still have 552 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: that after all the you know, the games, he's missed it. 553 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if he got that. I don't know 554 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: if he got it. Kawak can still get fifty, I 555 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: don't think so. I think he can give you a 556 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: good thirty five close to forty. I don't think he 557 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: can football. He give you forty ball, he ain't get 558 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: it for no fifty ball, fifty ball. I don't think 559 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: Kawaii got no fifty ball. He didn't give you four. 560 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: You don't think he hit a fifty ball. I don't think. 561 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: I just don't see. 562 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 2: I don't in the playoffs right now, I just don't 563 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 2: see Kawai give him a fifty ball in the playoffs. 564 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,959 Speaker 1: I don't think he got it forty year. He can 565 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: get it forty forty five, especially with Paul out there, 566 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: With Paul out there and a lot of it and 567 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,479 Speaker 1: not all that attention on him, he probably can get 568 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: a fifty, but a fifty with just him, with no 569 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: Paul George, with most of the attension on him. In 570 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs, it's a team like Phoenix. He ain't gonna 571 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: get that. He ain't gonna get that. Yeah, ka still 572 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: get fitted. Yeah, you know. And one team has to 573 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: make a big, a big run in the playoffs. You 574 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: know what they or they get broken up, or you 575 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: break this whole thing up, or you've taken it in 576 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: another direction.

And I think if you put a you 697 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: put a you put a Kyrie in the mix of us. Man, 698 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: that changed the narrative of the West. The Lakers jump, 699 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: The Lakers jumped quick. Oh Lord, have mercy. But that's 700 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: so many veritables, Bro, that's so many veritables, man, i'ma 701 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: be honest man. My. When we got the first first 702 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: first place seed, it was it was obviously a goal 703 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: the whole year. That flip put in all kind of 704 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: our our radar, but it was it was the way 705 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: we went about it. We had Sam Cassel the trail speed, 706 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,760 Speaker 1: where we had Erwin Johnson. We had different pieces carry Trump. 707 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: We had pieces on our team in which we thought 708 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: matched up with some of the goals we were setting 709 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: for ourselves. And then when we actually got there, we 710 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: made it. And then we looked at Denver as a young, 711 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: hungry team, but we was sham. Consale was walking us 712 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: through this no, no, and he had been through so 713 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 1: many series that he was giving us confidence on playing 714 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: it out. Nah den was gonna give us a little run, 715 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: but they don't have nothing, and then we're gonna beat 716 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: them like this. Then we're gonna and there we gotta 717 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: play Sackle, We gotta play like he was just walking 718 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: us through us. And that's when I really value the veteran. 719 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: That's when I looked at the veteran to stand up. 720 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: Not the coaches, not not not the organization, but the 721 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: veterans that has been through it. They navigated us through 722 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: that whole ship. No, we was never worried at no 723 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: point in time. I know, or we knew that Denver 724 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 1: was a very good team, but we we wasn't threatening 725 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: at no point. And I actually thought we was gonna 726 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: win that bitch, you know. Four I thought was I 727 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: was gonna you know, man, Sam don't mess his hip 728 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: hop and we don't go through all that. Man. We 729 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: we we give ourselves a good chance against La because 730 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: we played well against the Lakers. Obviously Shack and Cole 731 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: was a monster. But yeah, the mother pieces, they were 732 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: just pieces. You know what I'm saying. What about your 733 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: rocking to though? That's when, yeah, Tony Park was getting cooked. 734 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: That's like I always say that, Yeah, was getting cooked 735 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: by every point guard that year. 736 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 2: Speedy Claxon saved us. I don't know why they don't 737 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: talk about Speedy Claxton and give him his property. Bro 738 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 2: Tony Park was damn there on the bench every fourth 739 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,760 Speaker 2: quarter because Steph was frying. 740 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: Uh, Jason k. 741 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,720 Speaker 2: I'm talking about old playoffs, but I get to Phoenix series. 742 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 2: I was excited to be in the playoffs.

What was y'all record like that year 794 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 3: because you played each other full times? Do you remember 795 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 3: do you recall what y'all? 796 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: You know? If they beat the ship out of them 797 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: all full times? Oh wow, So y'all was already confident 798 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 1: if we didn't beat them, for we beat them three 799 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 1: out of four, you know what I'm saying. And you 800 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: know that was don else every time we played them, 801 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: it was like his championship game. Oh yeah, because Nelly 802 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 1: was personal. He was beefing with him, right, He was 803 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: suing them at the time. He was you know, he 804 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: was suing marcuting for money and something like that time. 805 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 1: So they was beefing. So when we was getting ready 806 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 1: to play him in the. 807 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 2: Playoffs, his whole attitude was, I don't give a fuck 808 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 2: about nothing. 809 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: We have to beat them. Afterwards. I'm gonna tell I'm 810 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 1: gonna get you that after the what happened after this, 811 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: I don't They basically say, he don't even care about 812 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: the season after that, this is my championship. We have 813 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: to beat them. You know. 814 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 2: That's they played this whole style. He drafted Dirt. I 815 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 2: think he was there when they drafted Dirt, you know 816 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. So he he had some man connects 817 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: to that team. He had built that whole team, so 818 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 2: he knew how to break it. The chinks in the armor. 819 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 1: Bro. He gave me Dirt's the Playbook of Dirt. I 820 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: Hot of Guard, and I did and he won MVP 821 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: that year. You know, it's crazy. They didn't get out 822 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 1: the first round, and up until that point, no no 823 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: player has ever won in v It never got out 824 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 1: of the first round.

Just the statuy that I 1100 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 2: came up, I uh sart o the day, first time 1101 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 2: in Big history where every team that scored eighty points 1102 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 2: some more in every game. 1103 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: Damn, scoring is up, is what you're saying. No defense, 1104 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 1: that's no competing. Defense is competing. Well, the playoffs, you 1105 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,359 Speaker 1: already know what time it is. Defense wins championship. That's 1106 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And that's and defense is 1107 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 1: competing though, and so they by by them want more 1108 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 1: points and less defense. They want to take the competition 1109 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 1: at the game. Bro. They want them to be friends. 1110 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 1: They want them to be hanging out together and working 1111 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: out in the summer time. That's what they want, and 1112 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: that's what the game has come to. Damn, man, ship, 1113 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:30,880 Speaker 1: we could have we could have kept going on that, 1114 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 1: hey man, And that's certified. Let's get it good ship, bro, 1115 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,439 Speaker 1: These are the better gym picture of the Wigs. Let's 1116 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:52,359 Speaker 1: get that man. The Hawks in Boston, well, I'm gonna 1117 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:53,840 Speaker 1: go ahead, and I'm gonna say that I got the 1118 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 1: I got the seas for the series, but in this 1119 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: particular game, I got to seize at home. I think 1120 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,279 Speaker 1: it's very important to come my winn this first game, 1121 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:08,359 Speaker 1: established home, established dominance, established play and pace. I think 1122 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 1: it's a very important. It's vital, you know. I think 1123 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 1: it's very vital for the for the Celtics to come 1124 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: out and not give a young Hawks team that has confidence, 1125 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,880 Speaker 1: has the players. Yeah, I think it's vital that they 1126 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 1: come out with a with a great game one to 1127 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: establish what the series is gonna be. But I got 1128 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,399 Speaker 1: the Celtics winning first game and I got them winning 1129 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:36,040 Speaker 1: the series. Listen, I see these two teams is very 1130 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: very close to each other. And I'm not saying in 1131 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 1: personnel or anything like that, but just how they play 1132 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 1: and how Yeah, I like both teams. I like uh, 1133 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 1: I like Cleveland at home. I think Cleveland is a 1134 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: problem just like I think New York is a problem 1135 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:58,439 Speaker 1: at home. I think Cleveland plays well at home. Man, 1136 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 1: I think this game, I think the series goes to seven, 1137 00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 1: seven games. I think, man if if if New York 1138 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 1: can win a game in Cleveland, I think it changes 1139 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 1: the scope of the series. But I think in this series, 1140 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 1: each team wins at home, and this is gonna be 1141 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 1: one of the ones. I got Cleveland winning the series. 1142 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 1: Oh but very very close, straight up, yeah I do, 1143 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 1: even though I think in my mind I'm looking at 1144 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: this like if Cleveland wins Game one, New York is 1145 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 1: that team. Seeing Brunson and how he's been taking over games, 1146 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 1: how Randall has to potential to do some of the 1147 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: same thing. I think that if you you get a 1148 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: you get a third piece, like like like I like 1149 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,359 Speaker 1: the Kid Grimes man, the Quentin grind Grimes kid man 1150 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: like man, He's he's like a He's like a dark horse. 1151 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 1: Ain't nobody really speaking about you know what I'm saying. 1152 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:54,400 Speaker 1: Like I like him. But at the end, man, I 1153 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 1: don't know if the Knicks got enough to to to 1154 00:53:56,680 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: beat that talented Cavs team. So yeah, I got, I got, Yeah, 1155 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: I got the Captain Man. Game one Warriors at Kings 1156 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: This is gonna be much watch TV. This is gonna 1157 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 1: be a great series. I think this is a series 1158 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 1: of pace. The Warriors play like trash on the road, 1159 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But this is the playoffs 1160 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: and they got pieces back. I like to think that 1161 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 1: they're they're the hunted and they're gonna come in motivated. Yeah, 1162 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,879 Speaker 1: I got this first game. Sack and sack at home 1163 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: is gonna be a problem at home. I think I 1164 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,200 Speaker 1: think it helps the narrative for them to win at home. 1165 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: And I think their crowd is gonna make a huge difference. 1166 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,400 Speaker 1: That home crowd is gonna be a really big, a 1167 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 1: really big issue and that we're not talking about. But yeah, 1168 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: I got I got the Kings. I got the Kings 1169 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:51,319 Speaker 1: winning the first game Sunday, Sunday Ay Lakers Lakers, who 1170 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 1: Lakers playing the Grizzlies at the Grizzlies. I think, I 1171 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 1: think it makes for a great TV. And yeah, I 1172 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:01,760 Speaker 1: think Memphis wins this first game, and I got Memphis 1173 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: in the for the series. I don't know if Bron 1174 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 1: and the company has enough gas. I actually like Bron's 1175 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: company versus uh, you know, the team they started off with. 1176 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,480 Speaker 1: I like Beasley, I like Vanderbilt, I like I like 1177 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:20,359 Speaker 1: all the pieces, and I think the key matchup two 1178 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,600 Speaker 1: is gonna be that Anthony Davis Jared Jackson junior matchup. 1179 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to that. Matchup. Whoever dominates that I think, 1180 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,960 Speaker 1: I think, I think definitely controls the series. And those 1181 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 1: are the bedoms GM picks of the Week.
