This Thursday, 54 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: Julius irving on all the smokes to make sure you 55 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: guys tap in and check that out. One of my 56 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: former teammates and my brother, CP three, announced his retirement 57 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: last week. What do you think about his legacy? Twelve 58 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: time All Star, nine time All NBA Defensive Team Rookie 59 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: of the Year. Definitely a top seventy five guy, someone 60 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: that Kobe spoke very highly. Kobe spoke very highly. I 61 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: was on the Laker team when he was trying to 62 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: recruit Chris and it was all but a done deal 63 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: till they asked it. They both have fun memories of 64 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: each other playing on the All Star team together. I mean, 65 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: Chris is someone an acquired taste. I think Chris gets 66 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: a bad rap because Max, he could have played in 67 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: your ear from a standard I was going to tell 68 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: you what you need to hear, not what you want 69 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: to hear. He's hard to know. He's tough to guard 70 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: one through four if the four is small enough, but 71 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: one of the toughest soldiers I ever went to. When 72 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: you think Chris Paul, what do you think of First. 73 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: Of all, guy was tough as nails. 74 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 4: I mean, I mean tough as nails. Chris Paul. 75 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: When I think about Chris Paul, man a god, theiry man, 76 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 3: a family man, you know first and you know as 77 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: a basketball player. 78 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: Man. 79 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 3: I got to know his mom and dad and my 80 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: son played for up on the CPE three, Tristan Maxwell. 81 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 3: I mean, so I see where he got it from. 82 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,559 Speaker 3: You know, the tenaciousness and the way he played, and 83 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 3: and and. 84 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 4: Just to be a pro, the way he was night 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:10,839 Speaker 4: in and night out. 86 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 3: I mean one of the guys that never ever really 87 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,679 Speaker 3: you really never heard nothing really bad come out about 88 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,799 Speaker 3: Chris Paul. I mean, you know, since he been playing, 89 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: and since he been I mean NBA or whatever, in 90 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 3: college or whatever. Chris Paul, I mean, the man, he's 91 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 3: just a good man. And that's what I'd like to 92 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: say about Chris. But uh, as far as basketball man. 93 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: He was a dog. We know that part. 94 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: He was a dog. 95 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 3: He wanted to cut your damn head off and that's 96 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 3: why he came to play every night. So but uh, yeah, 97 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 3: I love Chris Paul and love everything about the family man, 98 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: and uh uh it was a blessing for me just 99 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 3: to even know this man, you know, I mean so yeah, man, 100 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 3: that's how I feel about Chrisball. 101 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: One of the last pure point guards. Yes, you know, 102 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: a pure point guard. You think Rondo and and CP 103 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,559 Speaker 1: were kind of the last of the guys I played 104 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: with it are pure point guards. Point Guards are different 105 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: these days, are there? Their score first type guys. Not 106 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: that they can't dish, but they're more score first type guys. 107 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: But again, the one thing I think bothered me about 108 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: all this was the way he went out with the 109 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: Clippers that really bothered me. You know, arguably one of 110 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: their best players, if not their best player in franchise history. 111 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: He announces it's a failware tour. You know what you're 112 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: getting when you have him. I mean TLU was the 113 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: assistant coach for Doc when when when we were there 114 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: with the Lob City team, so you already know what 115 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: And like I said, Chris is going to tell you 116 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: how it is how you want to hear it. And 117 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: I think that probably rubbed some people the wrong way 118 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: because he wasn't able to produce the way he produced 119 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: in the past when he said what he said. But 120 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure he wasn't wrong, you know, So for him 121 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: to for him to go out, for the Clippers to 122 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: do him the way they did him really bothered me. 123 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: Uh And to be honest with you, I think I've 124 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: only worked one game since then. I've had to cancel. 125 00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: But I don't think I'll be I don't think I'm 126 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: gonna be going back, to be honest with you, mass 127 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: because I just think that shit is fucked up. That's 128 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: what I mean. You're playing with somebody's legacy, You're playing 129 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 1: with something they did. They didn't like super dirty when 130 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: they signed Blake to a big ass contract and then 131 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: they trade him to Detroit. I mean, you do your 132 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: you know, you do your your your franchised, you know, 133 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: possibly two of the greatest players that your organization has 134 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: ever had. You do him dirty. It's just that shit 135 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: rubs people the wrong way. And obviously it could be 136 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: water under the bridge of some people, and the team 137 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: had played good since he had moved on, But you know, 138 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: you don't forget bullshit like that, and it's just disappointing 139 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: that CP didn't get to go out the way he 140 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: deserved should go out arguably a top five point. We'll 141 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: get into that debate another day, but CP was one 142 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: of them. Yes, and congratulations on a great, long, prosperous career. 143 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: Never got that championship, but one of the greatest players 144 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: have never win a championship. And now, like I told 145 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: his son, it's on a little CP now, so he 146 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: gets to sit back and get some time with the 147 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: family and coach your son. And don't be surprised if 148 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: this is not a high school basketball coach. For me, 149 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: don't be surprised if he's not coaching the Sun next year. 150 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: Winter Olympics just wrapped. Twenty twenty eight, are the LA Olympics. 151 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: Now it's time to start thinking about the USA basketball team. 152 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: Someone on ESPN came out and put a twelve man 153 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: roster together, And I don't really take their rankings or 154 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: anything they say too serious because it's not necessarily people 155 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: that have a background in the game. They just have 156 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: an opinion. And I think we all have opinions, but 157 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: I prefer to listen to my opinions from people who've 158 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: done it. This is going to be interesting because there's 159 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: two guys that still come to mind. Most likely Lebron 160 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: to be done. He'll be damn what forty five forty six, 161 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: He'll be on some Oscar Schmidt shit if he came back. 162 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,119 Speaker 1: But Katie and Steph will both be right around thirty 163 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,559 Speaker 1: nine years old. And I think KD came out and said, 164 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: like he wants his plot paraphrasing, he wants his play 165 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: to do the talking. He doesn't want to honorary O 166 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: g Spot. He wants his play to be able to 167 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: solidify why he's on that team. I think Steph would 168 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: be in that same boat. I think if they're both healthy, 169 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: I think they both get a chance to make one 170 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: more run. This would be Katie's fifth Olympics, going to 171 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: his fifth gold medal, which no one has done on 172 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: the basketball side, So that'd be amazing. So we'll have 173 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: to see again. They'll both be thirty nine in twenty 174 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: twenty eight. But I think the way they take care 175 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: of bodies, barring any serious injury, they both should and 176 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: could be on that team. So I'm gonna name a 177 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: handful of guys that we got to pick twelve of them. Actually, 178 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: this is what the is this the ESPN one. So 179 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you what the ESPN guy their first cam. 180 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: Write these down so you can have a little reference 181 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: for him. So they picked Cooper Flagg, kN Kin Nipple, 182 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards, Tyrese Haliburton, Jalen Duran, Amen Thompson, Chet Holmgren, 183 00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: Bam out of Bayo, Scottie Barnes, Kate Cunningham, Jalen Williams, 184 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: Jason Tatum. So from this list, and I'll and and 185 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: I'll go first. I think in that first row, I 186 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: think Cooper Flag and Anthony Edwards make it. I think 187 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: in that second row it'll be interesting because I think 188 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: the three biggs will be Jalen, Duran, chet Holmgrin and 189 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: Bam out of Bio to be interesting to see if 190 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: all three of them get in. But I think those 191 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: are our bigs because you know, traditionally, who's the big 192 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to deal with? Uh, only Jokich is 193 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 1: the real strong big they're not to deal with, right 194 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: because Wimby's a big who But Wimby's not. I'm talking 195 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: about big guys. So I'm just sometimes like, none of 196 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: the Duran and and and and and Chet and Bam 197 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: they're not they're not lighting ass, but they're not traditional centers. 198 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: They're they're bigs, but they're not traditional centers. In I 199 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: think the only big they're gonna really have to deal 200 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: with is Jokic. Obviously, Giannis will be out there and 201 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: and and Wimby will be out there. But they're more skilled, bigger, stronger, 202 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: you know, biggs than traditional. So Cooper Flag, Anthony Edwards, 203 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: A combination of Jalen Duran chet Holmgunn and Bam I 204 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 1: think will be the Biggs. I think Cade cutting Ham's 205 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: lock and I think Jason Tatum. So how many is 206 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: that right there? 207 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 6: Seven? Got five? So if you look at this here. 208 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: Some so here, here's keep your thoughts, keep your thoughts 209 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: because I want to name all these. So the snuffs 210 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: would be Jayden Brown, Tyres Maxi, Jalen Johnson, Palos, Stephan, 211 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: Stephan Castle, Donovan Mitchell, Devin Booker, Jalen Brunson, Evan Mobley. 212 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: Who's that one who's that don't sleep? 213 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 6: Yeah from Portland? 214 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? Oh the kid in port like average Apolo. Apologies, 215 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: I wasn't familiar with your name, but I know you're gay. 216 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: Shack would say, uh, Triple j A, J debansa cam Boozer. 217 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: I don't even think you can put Anthony Davis on 218 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: this list, respectfully. I don't know if his body will 219 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: be where it needs to be in in two years 220 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: and then Kevin Durant and Steah So I got seven 221 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: so far. So I think Jayden Brown. The only way 222 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: Jalen Brown doesn't make this team is if they blackball. 223 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: Like the way he shouldn't have been on the last 224 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 2: goddamn Olympic. I mean, we know why, we know what. 225 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 2: That's where that come from. 226 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: Though it was the shoe ship, right, I think it 227 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,719 Speaker 1: was the shoe ship. So if the only reason why 228 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: he's not on the team, if the US committee is 229 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: blackballing himself. You heard it here playing a simple if 230 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: he's not on the team, he's being black balled. It's 231 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,839 Speaker 1: talent wise he's there. So I would put Jayden Brown 232 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: on there. That's eight. 233 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 4: How did a snow big body Brunson. 234 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 1: So that's a conversation to me. So do you take 235 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: see I think I'm taking the Tyresse Maxi or Jalen Brown, 236 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So I think Jayalen So 237 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: this is my So Jaden Brown is my eighth. I 238 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: think Jalen Johnson from Atlanta is gonna sneak in there. 239 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 1: He's a doing everything. It keeps getting better. I'm gonna 240 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: come back to Tyras Maxey, I think Devin Booker should 241 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: be a lock in on that team. And then I 242 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: want to but you know what. 243 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 2: I really like the bore of Stephen Castle. 244 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: Now, so that was another debate we had, so turn 245 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: it back to that page. So are you taking Castle 246 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: over Jalen Brown or Tyrese MAXI though I like Castle 247 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: a lot, but I think he's young and I think 248 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: he will eventually make an Olympic team? But are putting 249 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: him over Jayleen? And that was my same question for 250 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson. Are you putting Jalen Brunson over Jalen Brown 251 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: and Tyrese Maxey. 252 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 2: No, it's on one not left then. 253 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: So and then I want to throw a wild card 254 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: in there. I mean, is it is it? Is it 255 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: a Is it a Darren Peterson who we're gonna touch 256 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: on a little bit later in the show. Is it 257 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: a AJ DEBANTSA? Is it a Cam Boozer one of 258 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: the most fundamentally sound college players we've seen in a 259 00:12:55,679 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: long time, who's just a winner? And then again Steph 260 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: and KD I think should be on that team. So 261 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: that's twelve. So what so what's my list in let's 262 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: go back. 263 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 7: So your list, your list as it stands out is 264 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 7: Cooper Flag, Anthony Edwards, Kate Cunningham, Devin Booker, Maxi. 265 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: Curry, Curry, KD, Tatum. 266 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 7: Your fourds would be Tatum, Flag, Brown, and KD. And 267 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 7: then your bigs are Duram chet Bam. 268 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: How me is that twelve? That's twelve. 269 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 6: That's no Jalen Johnson. 270 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: That's no Jalen Johnson on there. So I want to 271 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: take I'm probably gonna take you too. Yeah, So let's 272 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: let's let's say Stephen k D, your Grandfatherdan. Let me 273 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: put two more people on there if they're not in 274 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: so one would definitely be Javin Johnson, and then I'll 275 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: probably go with the Scottie Barnes maybe, yeah. 276 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 3: Because you know he gotta lock up. You know he 277 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 3: got you gotta have somebody to play defense. 278 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: Big plays both ways, ye, Scott. 279 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 7: So no Halliburton, no Donovan Mitchell. 280 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: Respectfully, I don't think. I think there's guys that are 281 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: better and I like Haliburton, but I think the guys 282 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: that we have are better than him, and they played, yes, absolutely, 283 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: you know, you know, so Jayden Brown is definitely gonna 284 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: lock up. I have to see more defense up from Maxie, 285 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: But I think Maxie would be one of those guys 286 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: that understands his role and goes out the same way. 287 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: I don't think people respect how much Devin Booker sacrificed 288 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: in the last Olympics where they gave him a role 289 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: to go out there and play, and he played that 290 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: shit to a team, and I think it made him 291 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: a better player, because we know his ability to put 292 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: the ball in the basket, but he took a huge 293 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: step back. It was one of the ultimate glue guys 294 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: with his skill set. Was was really impressive to me. 295 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: So it's going to be interesting to see. I mean, 296 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: obviously a ton of talent. You know, this new generation 297 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: is coming in loaded. I mean we're seeing the last 298 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: and I hope people appreciate the last of you know, 299 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: hopefully we get Stephan kd for another two three years. 300 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: You know, we probably get Lebron for one more year. 301 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: Like this new generation is filled with talent and skill. 302 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: I mean, we didn't even mention Evan Mobley. Who's who's 303 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: someone I really like who I think at some point 304 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: one Olympic team. But I think the US team is 305 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: in really good hands. But I do think it'll be 306 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: good to have those og vets for this one last 307 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: run to teach this next generation what it's going to 308 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: be like moving forward before they completely hand the keys over. 309 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 7: If there's one player that's not in the NBA today 310 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 7: that would make the twenty eight Olympic team, who would 311 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 7: it be? 312 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: AJJ? I would say six nine. Both you got thinking. 313 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: And he's young too. I want to say he's what 314 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: seventeen or eight? He's eighteen this year, so he would 315 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: only be twenty at that time. He's gonna have two 316 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: more years under his belt. I'm a big fan. 317 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 6: He'll be He'll be twenty one. 318 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: Boy. I'm hungry on both sides of ball. Him and 319 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: Cooper Flag. I got a chance to see in a 320 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: day where AAU is nasty. I saw both this kids 321 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: play and they competed, picked up full court and where 322 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: dogs on both sides of the ball. So that that 323 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: won me over outside of their skill set, and you 324 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: know what Cooper's been doing in the league, and aj 325 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: leading college basketball and scoring. Moving on to another college 326 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: guy who has drawing some attention, Darren Peterson strange season, 327 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, reporting hamstring issues, some cramping issues. He has 328 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 1: times to that he flashes greatness of some of the 329 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: greatest players we've ever seen. He embodies that at times. 330 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm interesting to see what he does in the tournament. 331 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: But if you look at his numbers, he's that twenty 332 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: seven minutes a game, and I think we selfishly want 333 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: to see more because he is such a great player. 334 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: We want to see what is what are what are 335 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: college games? Thirty two minutes a game? For forty minutes 336 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: a game, so a little bit over half the game, 337 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: I think people want to see more. But at the 338 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: same time, it's twenty points a game, it's forty seven 339 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: from the field in forty from three. He's played in 340 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: seventeen games, he's missed how many ten or eleven. 341 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 7: Around that, like, AJ, for example's played ten more games 342 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 7: than Yeah. 343 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: So, but I think what's rubbing people the wrong way 344 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: is kind of I think he's exerting the business of basketball. 345 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: And I think Nate brought up a great point today. 346 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a number one pick, number two pick, 347 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: you're pretty much guaranteed at least one hundred million in 348 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: the coming years, you know what I mean. So on 349 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: the flip side, where we're seeing AJ play every game, 350 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: and he's leading college basketball and scoring and it's you know, 351 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: he is the leader of his team and every night 352 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: you can count on him. You don't see that from Peterson. 353 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: When he's out there, he's the absolute man. But you'll 354 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: see him hit shots and take himself out. I don't 355 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: know if that's his agent. I don't know if that's 356 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: his family. I don't know if that's his manager. But Max, 357 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: this could be and I hate to say this, this 358 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: could be the new load management of top college players. 359 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: Only he's the only one doing it, because if you 360 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: look at all, this is a loaded freshman class, and 361 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: everyone else is playing every single game as many minutes 362 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: as it can and having great seasons. This guy is 363 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: still having a really good season, but he's on load management. 364 00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: So what are your thoughts when you see someone with 365 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: that much talent not necessarily just go out there and 366 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: enjoy his college experience. We know he's only going to 367 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: be there for a year. What do you think when 368 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: you see him miss ten or eleven games. Some of 369 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: them maybe are for for for real reasons, but for 370 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: the most part, kind of minute restrictioning himself and kind 371 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 1: of unload management while you're in college. 372 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 3: Hey, no disrespect to my guy, Kyrie. Me and Jelena 373 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: was talking about this earlier. He might as well just 374 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 3: did what Kyrie did. Just played in the motherfucking tournament. 375 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 3: You know what I mean. And you know what I mean, 376 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: not played in the season. So but I mean, I 377 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: don't know. It's it's weird. I mean, shit, if you, 378 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 3: I just don't think if you can play thirty two games, 379 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 3: I don't know how you can end up playing eighty 380 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 3: two games. You know, see what I'm saying, that's gonna 381 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 3: be tough if you. If you, I mean, it's just 382 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just saying. 383 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 1: I ain't that's a great point. 384 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: I don't know the kid. But my thing is that 385 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: I know it's a it's a grind. And Matt, you 386 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 3: know that part too about the NBA season. It's eighty 387 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 3: two games, man, and this kid can't play thirty two games. 388 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 2: Man, that's man. 389 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 3: So I don't know, I don't, I don't know. I 390 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 3: keep seeing them checking himself out. Yeah, I mean a 391 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 3: crucial points of the game. I mean, I mean, you'll 392 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 3: hit us. I mean, this is crazy. I mean, I 393 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 3: never ever seen nothing like this in my life. But 394 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 3: I mean, but you know Bill self, You know I 395 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 3: blame his ass too. You got to put a lot 396 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 3: on him too. You know, he let that motherfucker do 397 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 3: that too. 398 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 2: Now. 399 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: So but you see Bill self, not to his defense, 400 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: but has been coming out like, hey, this wasn't as 401 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: planning this is. And I think back in the day, Max, 402 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: you could blame the coach a little more because they 403 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: had a little bit more power. But I think that 404 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 1: I think the school and the coach is powerless when 405 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 1: it comes to this. I don't think it's up to them, 406 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I don't think we live 407 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: in a day and age where you can make a 408 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: prudential number one pick go out there and play. He's 409 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: got to want to do it. Yeah, And I think 410 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: you made a great point, Max, of all young players 411 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: hit that that rookie wall, or even that second year 412 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: wall of we're playing, say at the most thirty five 413 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: games the season, then jump into eighty two plus preseason 414 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: plus playoffs. That's a big lift. But I will I'll 415 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 1: tell you this. I was with someone in the front office, 416 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: an assistant coach, and a commentator yesterday at this golf tournament, 417 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: and they were saying that front offices are concerned about this. 418 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: This is something they're concerned about. Again, So to your point, 419 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: the ability if you can't get through you know this 420 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: many college games, how are you going to make it 421 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: to the next level or just his and you know, 422 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: one of the does he really love the game? And 423 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 1: again we don't want to we don't want to speak 424 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: for him because we don't know what's going on. I 425 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: think this is more business of the game and his 426 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: potential earning. So again I understand that, but college is 427 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be go out there and do your thing 428 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: man half period, half fun. So again, having a really 429 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: solid season, really excited to see what he does in 430 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 1: the tournament. You know, they just beat Houston last night, right, 431 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: they just beat you know the number two teams, Houston three. Oh, 432 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: Houston's five. So you know, to beat a tough Houston 433 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: team last night. And obviously he played really well. So 434 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: you know, when he's on the floor, there's not a 435 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: question of his talent. The question is just is he 436 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 1: going to be on the floor. 437 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's just. 438 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: What's new in the gutters. Huh, some news around NBA 439 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: small markets. The gutters is a tough name for this 440 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: segment right here, Anthony Edwards. I need to get him 441 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: on the show. By the way, he was funny. I 442 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: saw a little edit of this. He said, Memphis is 443 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: at Memphis has dirty hotels and Draymond Green, Oh, Draymond 444 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: double down. I didn't see Draymond double down on it. 445 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: Is there a clip of it right here? 446 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 5: And man, it's pretty blunt about it. But yes, they 447 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 5: I think they may have the worst group of hotels 448 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 5: in the league. 449 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: For sure. 450 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 5: We had an issue there where we used to stay 451 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 5: at one hotel in Memphis and this day's back, we 452 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 5: stopped staying there because their sprinklers just went on for 453 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 5: no reason in the room and like dreshed all the 454 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 5: Andrew Bogan stuff, like the sprinkler system, like it was 455 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 5: a fire, just went off, dreshed all bogus stuff, and 456 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 5: they and they didn't they didn't want to do anything 457 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 5: about it. So we switched hotels then, right, So it's 458 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 5: been an issue. It's gotten a little better, I must say, 459 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 5: but it's not It's still not the other cities. So 460 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 5: we'll see what happens in Memphis with the hotels. 461 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: I guess you know, I had a perception and this 462 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: is not even the disrespectfuls because I had a perception 463 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: of Memphis that was similar to what they said. And 464 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: then when I went out there, I actually enjoyed it. 465 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: It was everything I needed in my life at the time, 466 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: coming fresh off a divorce and coming off a dysfunctional 467 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: Lob City team. I was, you know, kind of able 468 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 1: to reset in center. They had great food. Yeah, the 469 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: women were The women were very nice to me out there, 470 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: and you know, it was a really hospitable city. Everyone 471 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: was super cool, you know what I mean. So, but 472 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: it is one of those cities outside looking in if 473 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: you don't spend a ton of time there. You know, Max, 474 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: what are some other cities you think of? You think 475 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: of Memphis, What are some other cities you think of? Like, damn, 476 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: we gotta go here. Now, what are some other cities 477 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: you think about? Dramond Clip Utah. Utah is a good 478 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: one with Milwaukee. 479 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: Goodness Milwaukee. 480 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: Milwaukee. People didn't want to go to People don't want 481 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: to go to Sack. Although Sack was a m. 482 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 2: Detroit. 483 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 4: I ain't like Cleveland. 484 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Well that's back when we were we were out and 485 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: we weren't you know, we went to Detroit for a 486 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: stock X team we actually stayed in the city and 487 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: it was dope. But you remember we that's back when we 488 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: were out there. They were at the Palace of Auburn Hills, 489 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: So we were out there five an hour away from 490 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: the city. I ain't like Cleveland. 491 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: Ship the big ass water rats out there in Cleveland. 492 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 6: Like cats. 493 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: And I remember they used to have the Peabody where 494 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 1: they had walked a little ducks out all the time. 495 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: I think that's where we all used to stay. And 496 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: then they built that new and I forgot what it's called, 497 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: but it's right across the street from the arena where 498 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: most of the teams stay now. But I mean it's 499 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: it's it's a small market team, small city. You know, 500 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: you're not going to get the five star writs and 501 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: where we're accustomed to stay. Until we sound a little 502 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 1: boogie right now. But it's just a little different in 503 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: some of these little smaller so he said, these cities. 504 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: Moving on. 505 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 7: But hold on, Matt, how did it changed from team 506 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 7: to team because you're on a lot of different teams 507 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 7: and it's up to the team to decide. 508 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 1: Because I don't think I mean because some I mean, 509 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,160 Speaker 1: you only had two options of Memphis it was that 510 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: newer hotels across the street from the arena or the Peabodies. 511 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think it's definitely up the team. 512 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,959 Speaker 1: The teams are going to put you in the best available. 513 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: So some of these cities just don't have best in anything. 514 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: So speaking of smaller cities and small markets. And I 515 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: hate to dog my hometown team, but this is a 516 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: little love. I guess they snapped a sixteen game losing, Damn, 517 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: you got to quit, you had you had a quick 518 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: pit stop and sack? Was that was that at the 519 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: What year was that? 520 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 2: That was a ninety ninety eight when I was. 521 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 1: There, Okay, so that's when they were starting to get good, right, Yeah, 522 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: that was Web and all them boys. So did you 523 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: have Jay Will or Bibby at that time? So j 524 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: was still there? Yeah? Yeah, I think that was the 525 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: best we've ever seen as far as you know, someone 526 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: who was a Kings fan. That was the best team 527 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: that era. They had about a four year five year run. 528 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: Web was the centerpiece, and Vlottie and you and Bobby 529 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: Jackson and Bibby and Jay Will. They had a lot 530 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: of talent there. 531 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 6: Uh. 532 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: The architect of that was Jeff Petree and then obviously 533 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: the great Rick Adelman was the coach. Since it's it's 534 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: been in shambles and I saw it firsthand. And this 535 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: is not a knock on ownership, but ownership has issues 536 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: rusting the people they hire, giving power to people that 537 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, want to shot on the team in the draft, 538 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: and you know, missed on a ton of draft picks. 539 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 1: So you know, my man, Doug Chrissy's the head coach 540 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: right there, right now. They've shut the team down, and 541 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: they're such a bad team. I don't even think the 542 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: NBA can find it for tanking. They're just not a 543 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: good team, you know. But they've they've shut Zach Lavine down, 544 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: They've cut the bonus down. You know, you got Tomorrow 545 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: withering away over there. You got Russell Westbrook playing his 546 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: ass off, withering away over there. I don't know what 547 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: it's going to take to bring light to this fan 548 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: base that definitely deserves it. That's one of the greatest 549 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: fan bases in the league. And the product they continue 550 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: to put out is nasty. So this is coming from 551 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: a place of love, Sacramento fans, So don't be dming 552 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: me and blowing my shit up there's nothing more than 553 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: I that I want to see than this team.

Shit, they 568 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: shut down Nurkic and Triple J having season ending surgery. 569 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: I think they're doing a really good job because I 570 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 1: think they have some really good piece. I think they're 571 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: doing a really good job of tanking. Yes, they're eighteen 572 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: and forty right now, and they know that kid that's 573 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: going to b YU if they're able to land him. 574 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: And the NBA has had a funny way of landing 575 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 1: Brown and Cleveland and Kyrie and Cleveland and Dereck Rose 576 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: Chicago and They've had a funny way of blessing teams 577 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: at times. But I love the direction of this new ownership. 578 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: They got a lot of good young talent in pieces. Uh, 579 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: this is going to be a very loaded draft. I 580 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: think the Utah Jazz are on their way up. Don't 581 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: let this record this year fool you. I think this 582 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: was an intentional, intentional for this record to be this way, 583 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: to to to to stock up in this draft and 584 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: then be able to come out swinging because they have 585 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 1: a lot of those pieces. So I'm interested to see, 586 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, the direction of this Utah Jazz team in 587 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: the next three to five years. 588 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, I liked it. I liked I like you, I 589 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 3: like marketing, I like I know they're doing. They is 590 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 3: tanked the most for the season, but. 591 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: I get it. 592 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 3: So Jay's there, He's wrapped there across the street from 593 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 3: the motherfucker. So, I mean, so it makes a lot 594 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: of sense, and I get it, Like you said, lebron 595 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 3: Man in Cleveland. 596 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 4: How unfortunately after working that wasn't so. 597 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 3: But it's it's gonna happen. That's what's gonna happen. He's 598 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 3: gonna down, He's gonna end up in Utah. 599 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: I heard some good things about that. I actually went 600 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,239 Speaker 1: out to Utah and had a good time. We went 601 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: out there and visited our friends that do the YouTube 602 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: guru team out there shot them out. But we went 603 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 1: out there and actually had a really good time. So 604 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: we might be going back to Utah. 605 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 4: Well what you did, motherfucker? 606 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: We went they're called side by side. We were fucking 607 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: the streets up to Jelani was driving like a thirteen 608 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: year old girl at first, so his nuts dropped and 609 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: he started driving how he should. Dale got a little 610 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: bit of driving it. But I was out there wrecking shop. 611 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: It was dumbe. We had a good time. We went 612 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: on a crash course out there of just YouTube, you know, 613 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: just making our company better. We got a little play time. 614 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:32,959 Speaker 1: But no, I say all that to say is what 615 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: they told us about. You know, aj picking b Yu 616 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: was just more of the business of the game. You know, 617 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: he went to high school out there senior year and 618 00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: him and him and his pops are really heavy on 619 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: the business of basketball. There was more than this money 620 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: being given to him, opportunity business opportunities, investment opportunities, ownership 621 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: opportunities of certain things. So I really liked kind of 622 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: what they and I want to, you know, divulge everything 623 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 1: they told us, but it's bigger than basketball out there, 624 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: what he's getting, and it sounds dope, so to say, 625 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: what kind of businessman he is? What else we got, Nate? 626 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 7: I have a question off of this because there's a 627 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 7: lot of conversation about the Jazz tanking and they were 628 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 7: fined half a million dollars for this. 629 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 6: Why are they. 630 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 7: Getting criticized so much when teams like the Spurs and 631 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 7: a bunch of other teams historically have done the same thing. 632 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I just think tanking is such a big deal. 633 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: And I want to say Richard Jefferson came up with 634 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: a great idea, and again kind of paraphrasing because I 635 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: didn't get to see the whole thing, but he said 636 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: something like, once you're eliminated from the playoffs, there should 637 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: be a points system where winning obviously counts more than 638 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: it losing does. So I think there has to be 639 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: some kind of incentive. And then people are saying, well, 640 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: why would players on that team if they're going to 641 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: be losing want to still go out? Because you're fucking 642 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 1: in the NBA. That's why you're going to want to 643 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: go out there and want to play hard. But there 644 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: needs to be something said for tank and I think 645 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: teams that intentionally tank there needs to not because fines 646 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: don't do nothing. These half a million million dollars finds, 647 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: these are these are billionaires. Yeah, there has to be 648 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: some kind of incentives for draft stock that you know, 649 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: once you're eliminated there there should be a point system 650 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: and the more games you win, the better chance you 651 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: have of getting a top pick, and that'll I think 652 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: that'll keep these these dweller teams competitive for longer. And 653 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: if your dog shit, your dogshit, and you're gonna keep 654 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: being dogshit, you know you'll be at the back of 655 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: the lottery. But I think these teams that are tanking, 656 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 1: that have talent, there needs to be some kind of 657 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: for all these teams that are eliminated for the playoffs, 658 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: there need to be some kind of point system that 659 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: the more you win on the back half of the season, 660 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: the better chance you have in the lottery. 661 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 3: So I just don't understand, man, I mean, I just 662 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 3: I could man, I couldn't play. 663 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I just I love game so much.

You need to be able to you know, 690 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: win any of these season and awards. So kid is 691 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: obviously in there. Twenty five, ten, and six. Yeah, you 692 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: said you can only miss seventeen. I don't think he's 693 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: gonna miss that many. You can only miss SGA could 694 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: only miss a couple more games. He's out with an injury. 695 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: Yokic just missed sixteen games, so he only has a 696 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: handful of games left. Huh. One Yo has only missed one. 697 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 6: Can only be off the board. 698 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: You can only miss seventeen games. 699 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 6: You got to hit the sixty five game mark. 700 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, Yo yoki yo. So if Yo Kics 701 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: doesn't play pretty much every game after All Star, he's 702 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: out of the running. SGA is only gonna be able 703 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: to miss a handful of games. 704 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 6: He's currently hurt too, Yeah, he's hurt. 705 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: Reevaluate Wenby has missed thirteen games, so he can only 706 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: miss four more games. And you'd hate to see and 707 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: this is no disrespect, but someone to get to get 708 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: the MVP by default. You know, I don't think that 709 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: that's that's what their plan was when they try to 710 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: come up with these regulations to make guys play again, 711 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: which is crazy. But what are your thoughts on you know, 712 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 1: obviously that we have the top five candidates right now, 713 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: but you know there's half of them are borderline going 714 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: to be disqualified for not playing the minimum amount of games. 715 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 7: This is also first team All NBA too, like that's 716 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 7: to be considered as well. They could be taken out 717 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 7: of first team All NBA. 718 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, so all the accolades, contracts, that's livelihood, manhood, familyhood, 719 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:21,879 Speaker 1: a lot of things are at stake here. 720 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 3: Mother fucks can't play sixty five games?
