Speaker 3: Have you ever had a Scotch No, you meant you.

16
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,319

17
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 4: It's hard. I've never eaten one either.

00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,359
Speaker 2: lot of names. I'm not reading them for the podcast.

00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 2: You have to come over and check that and check

40
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,120

41
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: nice little run here weggies. Joellembiat at the Free throw

42
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: line and he's gonna miss it, and we're gonna have

43
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: another sort of rebound attempt Weggie. I guess Max Christie

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 2: gets the official nod for Weggie number twenty seven. At

45
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 2: least according to weggietracker dot Com, it's going to Max.

46
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: So good stuff, really good stuff. As this ticks up

47
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 2: up up, and we're almost on pace again for that

48
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 2: magical number of fifty, just at forty nine. There a

49
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 2: lot of games to talk about last night, and we

50
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 2: will get to them. Also, if we have time, we'll

51
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: get to some trivia. I got some really random trivia

52
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: for you guys and everybody on the stream team and

53
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: the podcast listeners. But we got to start with the slop.

54
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Would the Suns trade Kevin Durant? Other teams

55
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 2: around the NBA apparently feel like it's enough of a

56
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 2: possibility to call and check in on Katie's availability. A

57
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: report from Scham's earlier this week indicated that the Warriors

58
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 2: have interest in a reunion that would bring Katie back

59
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 2: to the Bay, back to Steph Curry, and then yesterday

60
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 2: The Athletic reported that the Mavericks what the Mavericks and

61
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 2: the Rockets are both intrigued by the possibility of adding

62
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 2: the fourteen time All Star. I want to note here

63
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant downgraded to doubtful for tonight's game in ok

64
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 2: C as these trade talks swirl. Now. The Sun say

65
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 2: he's dealing with the left ankle sprain from the previous game,

66
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: but there are whispers that he might just be butt

67
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: hurt that his name is in trade talks there and

68
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: he's maybe upset but the ankle. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So okay.

69
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 2: We touched on this a little bit yesterday, but this

70
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 2: is really gaining a lot of momentum here over the

71
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 2: last twenty four hours. Like suddenly it feels potentially realistic

72
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 2: that Kevin Durant has actually moved at the deathline. It's

73
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 2: sort of wild.

74
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 5: Yes, And after we were shocked on the weekend with

75
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 5: Luka Doncic, we are prepared to be shocked yet again.

76
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 5: I think we're more accepting of that. But I only

77
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 5: think that this is a possibility because the Bradley Beal

78
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 5: for Jimmy Butler deal isn't a possibility. And that could

79
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 5: be because Bradley Beal is saying no, I'm not waving

80
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 5: my no trade clause or It could be because the

81
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 5: Miami Heat aren't accepting a Bradley Beal, or it could

82
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 5: because the third team in that deal is not accepting

83
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 5: of what they could get. Now that being said, if

84
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 5: Kevin Durant goes to the Dallas Mavericks, the Dallas Mavericks

85
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 5: may give the Phoenix signs enough to make that Bradley Beal.

86
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 5: Or excuse me, the Jimmy Butler part of that trade happened.

87
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 5: It is convoluted. Yeah, it is quite No. I mean,

88
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 5: they get Kevin Durant away from their team, and they

89
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 5: get enough pieces back they may be able to get

90
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler to other team, which we saw what Nico

91
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 5: Harrison just did. And that's what it is confusing, is

92
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 5: it not.

93
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 4: It's confusing.

94
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 6: Why would you trade Kevin Durant in order to be

95
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 6: able to trade for Jimmy Butler.

96
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 4: Bingo doesn't make sense.

97
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 6: I mean the mechanics are confusing. The idea of it

98
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 6: also confusing.

99
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, what they'd have back. It is all confusing.

100
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 5: But I would think that the Phoenix Suns would just

101
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 5: be going for it now more so just going for

102
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 5: it now.

103
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: But how's that going? It's going backwards? Going back, well,

104
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 2: going from Kevin Durant to Jimmy Butler, it's going backwards.

105
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 5: Well, they'd be getting other parts. There's other parts.

106
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, the athletic row Phoenix might need

107
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,559
Speaker 2: to move Katie for the kind of returns that allow

108
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 2: it to enhance. Yeah, it's offered to Miami. Yeah. The

109
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 2: thing is here, what there's two potential things going on here.

110
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 2: It's the Hey, the Jimmy Butler dreams of playing for

111
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 2: the Phoenix Suns is dead because of the beal the

112
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 2: no trade clause, and that's like, okay, that's sort of over.

113
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 2: And if that's the case, is Phoenix now going Well,

114
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 2: we can't land Jimmy Butler, maybe we have to trade

115
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant to like really shake things up obviously, get

116
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 2: draft capital, get other players. And that's maybe where the

117
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 2: Warriors part comes in. Like, you know, is it Draymond

118
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 2: Green kaminga, is it Trace Jackson Davis like whatever that

119
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 2: packages and draft capital just for Katie? But yeah, is

120
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 2: it tied together with Butler or not? Is the real question?

121
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 5: Or the Phoenix Suns could be looking at what the

122
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 5: Dallas Mavericks are doing and they're not they're not locked

123
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 5: into a future with Luka Doncic, and they're saying, you

124
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 5: know what, we don't want to extend Kevin Durant past

125
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 5: his contract next year and say let's shorten this baby.

126
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 5: I suppose.

127
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's strange.

128
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 6: Man Bradley Beale said, I hold all the cards, and

129
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 6: he holds so many cards that we might end up

130
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 6: with Kevin Durant backing Golden State.

131
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 4: That's pretty crazy. Shout out to the Wizards.

132
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 6: We never knew that this no trade clause would result

133
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 6: in this years and years down the line, but this

134
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 6: kind of reads to me as the Suns come into

135
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 6: terms with be likely sticking around their reporting right now

136
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 6: is that there still have been no discussions about him

137
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 6: actually waving his no trade clause. Nobody wants to trade

138
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 6: for Beal is basically what it sounds like. So if

139
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 6: the Suns they can go one of two ways. They

140
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 6: could trade Devin Booker and start a rebuild immediately. Matti

141
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 6: Shubiez clearly doesn't want to do that, or they can

142
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 6: look at trading Kevin Durant, who has a big enough

143
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 6: contract and is still desirable enough that you could maybe

144
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 6: bring back players, draft picks, something that Phoenix could then

145
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 6: move if they wanted to, because they just love making

146
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 6: trades and they can't stop it, you know.

147
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 5: And he's only signed through next year, so you're more

148
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 5: on the Booker timeline than this Kevin Durant.

149
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 4: Yeah exactly.

150
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 6: But but if they then go and do the deal

151
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 6: for Jimmy Butler, like you're still old, that's.

152
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 5: Still yeah, yeah, yeah, no doubt, there's no doubt about that.

153
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Okay, So you think, okay, if Phoenix doesn't land

154
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler, and mainly because of this whole deal situation

155
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 2: with the no trade clause, do you think they should

156
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: move Kevin Durant, let's say, to the Warriors or the

157
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: Rockets or whatever to get like a really nice package back.

158
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: And like sort of you're at that point, you're almost

159
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 2: like we're retooling, We're resetting in a way, like this

160
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: doesn't work. We really pooched it when we got bal

161
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: to be honest here, because we just backed ourselves into

162
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 2: a corner.

163
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 6: And I mean, to be quite honest, the Sons were

164
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 6: closer to winning a title before they traded for Kevin

165
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 6: Duran Yes, yes, that was the that might have been

166
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 6: the biggest misstep if we're being honest here, they traded

167
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 6: so much for him that they had to go in

168
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 6: on Beale because he was available.

169
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 4: They got him for pretty cheap. They gave up.

170
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 6: Most of their draft picks and the Drant deal. Yes,

171
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 6: and that's been the problem for them actually adding to

172
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 6: their team here.

173
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 4: So I don't know.

174
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 6: I mean I would, I would do a kd trade

175
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 6: and then I wouldn't do it Jimmy Butler trade if

176
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 6: they're actually trying to retool, because I don't think it's

177
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 6: a retooling. I think it's like a side step if

178
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 6: they do the move for.

179
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: Butler and what about potential packages from let's say the Warriors.

180
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 2: Let's focus on that. You know, there's there's a tie

181
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: between Draymond Green and Mattieshbia obviously college ties. Is he

182
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: need to be included in this piece cominga It seems

183
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: like a no brainer, as like the prospect they do

184
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 2: have some d half picks. Are you doing this? The

185
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 2: Warriors are trading for Kevin Duran again, getting him back

186
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: there to give Kurry a chance. You doing it?

187
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 5: Oh? Yeah, the Warriors, You're doing it absolutely. I don't

188
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 5: think it's a question.

189
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 6: Weird you think they would trade Draymond fat. I don't

190
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 6: think they would trade I don't think so. He's but

191
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 6: he's in the mix, like that's the team that or

192
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 6: that's ah who at the Athletic was reporting that Matteshbia

193
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 6: has a thing for Draymonds at Michigan State. Yeah, alum

194
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 6: as well. I can't imagine the Warriors doing that. I

195
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 6: think they would rather give the poo poo platter of

196
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,479
Speaker 6: guys who might be helpful.

197
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 2: Of the Wiggins contract to the Kaminga, the Looney possibly

198
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 2: Shrewders deal. Yeah, and get there with that.

199
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 6: Yes, Guadala, we're not retiring your jersey. We're giving you

200
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 6: a jersey you play for this team all over again.

201
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I can't believe this. Okay, here's my

202
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: conspiracy though, this is all bullshit. Kevin Duran is the

203
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 2: star of the second season of Netflix documentary series Starting Five.

204
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 2: We need some drama here right here at the deadline.

205
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 2: This is going to make them for great material, good

206
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 2: content for season two of Starting five, it says the

207
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 2: main guy. But no, it's just insane how this has

208
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 2: just taken on a life of its own. After of course,

209
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 2: the Luca huge blockbuster deal where he's on the Lakers

210
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 2: and ady to the MAVs, and then it's like not

211
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 2: long after, it's like, oh my god, Kevin Durant, Kevin

212
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: duran get moved and it's like, oh, yeah, Jimmy Butler.

213
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 2: Remember when Jimmy Butler was like real, the only real

214
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: name as we headed into the deadline, and now he's

215
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 2: been like Trump by like three different guys here, four

216
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: different guys.

217
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 4: Yeah.

218
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 5: I think both from the Warrior's perspective and the Mavericks perspective,

219
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 5: they have a bunch of guys that would quote unquote

220
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 5: add up to Kevin Durant, which is just a bunch

221
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 5: of parts and a bunch of younger parts. With the Warriors.

222
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 5: Yet we talked about a little kaminga a little Pajeenski

223
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 5: put gently, and also from the Mavericks perspective at Gafford, PJ. Washington,

224
00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 5: Derek Lively, Clay combo works. Now that's one young guy

225
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 5: really and Derek Lively with a little PJ on the side.

226
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 5: The numbers work. It is a little crazy when you

227
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 5: start to think about all these parts.

228
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 2: So you're looking at that as like Nico Harrison in

229
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 2: the Mass, like doubling down on this idea of like

230
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 2: win now this year or potentially next year, but right

231
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 2: now is the window because we got older, we got

232
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: rid of Luca. Everybody hates us, We're soulless as a franchise.

233
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: So we make this move and we try and get

234
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 2: Katie to pair with Kyrie and Ad.

235
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 5: It's also not just this year, but they've also doubled

236
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 5: down on just the next few years with this trade

237
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 5: that they've made for with Caleb Martin, He's got cost

238
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 5: certainty with a locked in contract, and so they are

239
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 5: doubling and tripling down on not only saying goodbye Luka

240
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 5: dantrichin a five six year combo, but the next few

241
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 5: years with Caleb Martin being there, and they didn't want

242
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 5: to pay Quentin Grimes. I assume we'll get to that trade.

243
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 3: But whoa wood selves the trade?

244
00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 5: Right here? Right now?

245
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 2: What do we have?

246
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,680
Speaker 6: Sean's is reporting that the Milwaukee Bucks are trading Chris Middleton,

247
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 6: AJ Johnson and a pick swap to the Washington Wizards

248
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 6: for Kyle Kuzma PBJ and second round draft compensation. Okay,

249
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 6: Jelly Patrick Baldwin junior former Warrior himself.

250
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: Yes, that's right. So this okay, so we're swearing, let's

251
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 2: get off to Kevin Durant. We wait for that. But yeah,

252
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 2: this one had been sort of like rumored for the

253
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 2: last twenty four hours forty eight hours or so, this

254
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,720
Speaker 2: idea of Kuzma going to the Bucks, and you said

255
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 2: it's Middleton as the main piece leaving Milwaukee. Okay, give

256
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 2: it to me one more time, just one more time,

257
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: getting because get a lot of names the Wizards.

258
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 6: The Wizards are getting Chris Middleton, a J. Johnson who

259
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 6: was the Bucks first round pick and looks like he's

260
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 6: sixteen years old, and a pick swap. Okay, so they

261
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 6: haven't seen the detail on the pick swap yet. And

262
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 6: then the Bucks are getting Kuzma, and then Patrick Baldwin

263
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 6: junior okay, second round draft.

264
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 2: So all right, so let's it's Middleton with a J.

265
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: Johnson as obviously a young prospect at the Wizards. Okay,

266
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: Well your reaction, great man, great it.

267
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 5: My initial reaction is the Milwaukee Bucks absolutely going for

268
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 5: it and acquiring a guy who's had his most terrible

269
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 5: season in a long time in Kyle Kuzma. That's the surprising.

270
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 2: As Middleton obviously and that's not a reason with two

271
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: ankles Middleton.

272
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 5: Coming to Middleton. I know it doesn't look good, but

273
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 5: three of the last four games he's dropped over twenty.

274
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 5: He's got it going seven of ten is last game,

275
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 5: eight of nine, the game before ten of thirteen, four

276
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 5: games ago. He's looked his best in this tiny little

277
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 5: sample size. Because he's fought injury after injury after injury.

278
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 5: They've tried coming him coming off the bench to be

279
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 5: that that sixth guy, just to be an initiator off

280
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 5: the bench. It didn't look bad at all. Kyle Kuzma

281
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 5: does look bad, but he has done some things in

282
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 5: the NBA before to help win a championship, And so

283
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 5: I like if.

284
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 6: This guy is eating off this championship so much. He

285
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 6: was the eighth man on the Lakers the Bubble Championship.

286
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 6: He doesn't play like that anymore.

287
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 5: He hasn't played like that in a long time.

288
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 4: Defense and rebounding back then.

289
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, I like what the Washington Wizards are doing by

290
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 5: saying we're not tied to Kyle Kuzma.

291
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're good for them.

292
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:17,359
Speaker 5: They're basically going somewhat of a direction here. The Milwaukee

293
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 5: Bucks side of things, I just I'm in theory.

294
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 3: It's okay.

295
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 6: Exactly, they need a player like Kuzma, like a big

296
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 6: wing who's kind of a small ball for like, they

297
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 6: need their version of PJ.

298
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 4: Washington.

299
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 6: Because you look at the Bucks and probably three of

300
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 6: their top seven before the Middleton trade, I'm thinking Middleton, Brook, Lopez,

301
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 6: Bobby Portis. They won't be able to stay on the

302
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 6: court at the highest levels of winning here against the

303
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 6: team like the Thunder, against a team like the Celtics

304
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 6: that's gonna put him in five out. Those three guys

305
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 6: are liability, yes, at this point. Now, the idea that

306
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 6: Kuzma is the savior here is pretty odd. Last season,

307
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 6: at least he was averaging twenty points a game, shooting

308
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 6: decent percentages. He has been atrocious this year. So if

309
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 6: you're a Bucks fan, you just traded Chris Middleton, a

310
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 6: guy who helped win you a title. Instrumental to winning

311
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 6: the title, you have to hope that Kuzma has just

312
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 6: been mailing it in for.

313
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 4: The that's reason exactly, And he has been mailing. But

314
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 4: does he still have it? Does he want to be

315
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 4: a role player?

316
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 5: We'll see, would you say million in the last three

317
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 5: seasons even though he was good last year. He's never

318
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 5: been great, but he was more of a dependent man.

319
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 6: They've been the worst team in the league. Yeah, but

320
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 6: he's been their star. Yeah, he was trying, and he

321
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 6: was trying to score and trying to score. You can

322
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 6: play winning basketball.

323
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 2: Yes the question. Yes, and we've seen it before. A guy, obviously,

324
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 2: you know, in no man's land, playing for one of

325
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 2: the worst teams in the league, gets stats or whatever,

326
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: just goes through the motions, finds his way to a

327
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: team like with some championship aspirations. Obviously, a leader more

328
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 2: of a structure and can slot in and actually contribute.

329
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 2: That's very much in play. But man, Kuzma, it is

330
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 2: really bad this year, really bad. Fifteen points per game, okay,

331
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: forty two percent from the field, twenty eight percent from deep.

332
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: Stopped me in my tracks. I didn't know it was

333
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 2: that bad. He's garbage at the free throw line when

334
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 2: he gets there too. He's a sixty percent pre throw

335
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: shooter this year. But and he shoots a lot of

336
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: threes too. That's like five attempts per game. So it's very,

337
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 2: very bad. Obviously, the Bucks are gonna hope that gets

338
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 2: up to levels seasons prior, like when he was a

339
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 2: better shooter at least better consistency.

340
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, he looked more dependable in the last couple

341
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 5: of years. But he has to take on this role

342
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 5: of playing defense again, not shooting every single possession he

343
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 5: touches the ball. He has to change, He has to

344
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 5: be a different guy. I guess you can say for

345
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 5: once Doc Rivers and Milwaukee Bucks are going young.

346
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 2: He guess he's in his prime right nine.

347
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's twenty nine. And comparison to Chris Middleton, who

348
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 5: was literally the number two guy handling the ball for

349
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 5: a championship team. Now, it was a long time ago,

350
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 5: it was four years ago, but he ain't that same guy.

351
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 5: And I was I was surprised because I just thought

352
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 5: they would give Chris Middleton a chance here with what

353
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 5: he's been doing recently. But man, they are going for it.

354
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 5: They are going for it in a similar way. I

355
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 5: was gonna say, a similar way to Nico Harrison. How

356
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 5: they're going for it now, but they just got younger

357
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 5: in a weird way. But it is is it a

358
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 5: lateral move?

359
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 4: It's hard to you know, if he's the version of PJ.

360
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 6: Washington for last year playing on a bad team, and

361
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,120
Speaker 6: the Hornets came in and gave the.

362
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 4: Mavericks exactly what they needed.

363
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 6: Somebody who could guard like a Jason Tatum type, rebound

364
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 6: as well hit wide open threes. If Kuzma does this,

365
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 6: I think it's an upgrade. I'm personally not very confident

366
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 6: that Kuzma is going to be able to do that.

367
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,959
Speaker 5: It's a good point that they're looking at the Boston

368
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 5: Celtics and they want somebody with height on the wing.

369
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

370
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, even though Chris Middleton was a good defender once

371
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 5: upon a time, but that's that's what they were that's

372
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 5: what they're looking for. It's a very good part of

373
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 5: their calculation here.

374
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and for those like, hey, how do the books

375
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 2: work on this? Kuzma does make a lot less than

376
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 2: Chris Middleton, you know, current contract he makes twenty three million.

377
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: Kuzma does this year, but he's locked in for the

378
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 2: next two years twenty one million, nineteen million. Not an

379
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: insane you know, contract, it declines obviously, Whereas Middleton has

380
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 2: thirty four million dollar player option for next season, so

381
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 2: whether he will test free agency, he just takes that

382
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 2: and then you know, tries to sort of rehabilitate his

383
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: sort of value and get sort of maybe one last

384
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 2: sort of pretty decent contract in his career remains to

385
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 2: be seen, all right, any other thoughts there on, whiz

386
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 2: box of trade breaking while we're alive here in the

387
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,400
Speaker 2: classic factory. You love to see it? Okay, Well, let's

388
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 2: get to that. Another trade that did happen last night

389
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 2: the Mavericks. They made their second deal of the trade season.

390
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 2: They acquired seventy six ers wing Caleb Martin. Tas slip

391
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 2: this in Philly will receive Quentin Grimes in return. This

392
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 2: guy's racking up the sky miles and will regain control

393
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: of their own twenty twenty five second round draft picks.

394
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 2: So Martin, in the first season of that seventy six

395
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: ers deal that he signed four years, thirty five million,

396
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: he's going to the Dallas Mavericks. So what was your

397
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 2: initial reaction to this one?

398
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 5: My initial reaction was, how dare you trade Quinton Grimes?

399
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 5: You love? She's been having a good season, a better

400
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 5: season than Caleb Martin. He's having a very solid season.

401
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 5: The first time he's been really good since his second

402
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 5: season with the next It's been a while. He looked

403
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 5: good that being said, hate to get to the dollar

404
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 5: dollar bills, but that is a huge part of this.

405
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 5: They tried to sign Quinton Grimes to an extension in

406
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 5: October before the deadline. They couldn't come to an agreement.

407
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 5: Quinton Grimes is gonna make more than Caleb Martin. I

408
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 5: imagine you said those numbers, Skeets. There are some good

409
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 5: numbers there for Caleb Martin. He's making eight and a

410
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 5: half million guaranteed next year. That sounds like nothing.

411
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 2: He should be making double that member yeah, right, yeah,

412
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 2: And when his agent sort of pooched that one, yeah,

413
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 2: didn't have like he had like a sixty eight million

414
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 2: dollar offer, I think, really, yeah, I realized that it

415
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 2: was much more than that.

416
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 5: And not just next year. But he's guaranteed under nine

417
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 5: the next year after that, So they've got him for

418
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 5: two years plus a player option for the following year.

419
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 5: While Quinn Grinds was going to make more than that.

420
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 5: Caleb Barton, he is a very good perimeter defender. He

421
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 5: defended big guys more so than than Grinds. That's what

422
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 5: it's going to come down to, and it is. I'm

423
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 5: sure they're looking at the Boston Celtics on the other

424
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 5: side and said, hey, this guy, this guy would be

425
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 5: good to defend against Jason Tatum in a scenario like that.

426
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 5: I know it's long term, but.

427
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: Tas Mellis has the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA.

428
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 6: Caleb Martin is the Celtics killer. He's a killer, plays

429
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 6: better against the Celtics than anybody else. I wouldn't personally

430
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 6: worry about it if I'm the Mavericks bad other things story.

431
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly right.

432
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, but hold on the number. The numbers against the

433
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 5: Celtics are ass The.

434
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 4: Bombers are crazy against the Celtics. He's likest the Celtics.

435
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

436
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

437
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 5: He averaged in that Conference Finals sixty percent from the field,

438
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 5: forty nine percent from three to nineteen points per game.

439
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 5: When they threw him the starting lineup for Game six

440
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 5: and seven, he was twenty one and fifteen and then

441
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 5: twenty six and ten. It's crazy twenty one points in

442
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 5: fifteen rebounds from this guy's just started twenty six and ten.

443
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 5: You know, he's twenty nine, so he kind of fits

444
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 5: that Dallas Mavericks timeline. Yeah, very very well, more so

445
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 5: than Quentin Grimes, who who's this young, too young he's

446
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 5: too young for us, which is a weird thing to say.

447
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 6: But he also just got Max Christy in a te

448
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 6: so he's gonna take all the Quentin Grimes minutes. Anyways,

449
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,920
Speaker 6: he had a nice game in his debut last night

450
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 6: in a loss, and like you're saying, Caleb Martin, like

451
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 6: he's fine.

452
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 4: Man, he's twenty nine years old.

453
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 6: I don't really like the idea of his contract in

454
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 6: twenty twenty eight, but who cares. It's such a cheap deal.

455
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 6: He didn't have a great season. I was happy. I

456
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 6: thought it was a good signing for the Sixers. Preseason

457
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 6: shot the ball really poorly to start, turned it around

458
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 6: a little bit here, So I think this is honestly

459
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 6: like a lateral move. I think that Grimes will probably

460
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,239
Speaker 6: help the Sixers a little bit more because now they

461
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 6: don't have to play Lowry as much, don't play Reggie

462
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 6: Jackson as much, Eric Gordon doesn't need to play as much.

463
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 6: There's minutes as like a depth piece shooting guard, I

464
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 6: think for Philadelphia, and they need outside shooting as well,

465
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 6: so good for them, and they picked up a little

466
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:08,919
Speaker 6: picky pick here.

467
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, this trade makes sense honestly for both teams. At

468
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 2: least like where they're at right now. I don't mind

469
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 2: it you said, like the cost control for Martin, I

470
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 2: think is a big piece of this, because Grimes would

471
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 2: hit restricted free agency and then you you alluded to it.

472
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 2: You know, you get Max Christi, Dante ExHAM returned for them.

473
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 2: You obviously have Kyrie, you have Clay, you got Dinwitty,

474
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 2: you got Hardy. It's like a lot of minutes really

475
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 2: to go around sort of there for Grimes. So they

476
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 2: go a little bit bigger with Martin on the wing

477
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 2: there and sort of like trying to like replicate what

478
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 2: they lost when Derrek Jones Junior left, you know, not

479
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 2: even completely different players, but obviously a little defense on

480
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 2: the wing. So yeah, and that twenty twenty five second

481
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: one pick originally sent to the Thunder in twenty twenty one,

482
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 2: but made its way to the Mavericks via last season's

483
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 2: PJ Washington trade with Charlotte, So now it gets returned

484
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 2: to Philadelphia. I love seeing a draft pick find its

485
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 2: way home to start somewhere, move around the league, and

486
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: then just come on back. So they got it.

487
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, the Maps definitely need another ball handler type, but

488
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 5: they don't need Quentin Grimes because camp Cram Christy, as

489
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 5: you mentioned, very good game and Dante exam. You know,

490
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 5: he is a ball handler type and he's coming around,

491
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 5: but he also gives the ball away sometimes. But yeah,

492
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 5: Caleb Martin makes more sense on that team. This is

493
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 5: a WIS couple of months, a team that just literally

494
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 5: dropped out of the play in tournament, the Mavericks. The

495
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 5: Mavericks are eleventh. Yeah, this is this is a weird time.

496
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 2: When you got excited about the trade breaking, I thought

497
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 2: it was kJ Martin because they say he's going to

498
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: be moving it. I didn't even know that.

499
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 6: Really, No, that's true. Not a full not a full

500
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 6: Southern lawyer for this one. Not a force for sure.

501
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 6: The Sixers are sending kJ Martin and two second round

502
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 6: picks to the Detroit Pistons. I see it from Derek Bodener,

503
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,679
Speaker 6: who had it first. But it seems to me that

504
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 6: between this deal with kJ Martin, who was basically traded

505
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 6: or like signed as a big salary that they're obviously

506
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 6: now salary dumping here, same with getting cheaper with Quentin Grimes.

507
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 6: Maybe it means they'll be able to keep Gersh on you.

508
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 6: Yabu Sella yes, which is big because he's been a

509
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 6: great find for there, a bright spot for the Sixers.

510
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 2: Okay, so kJ Martin, that's amazing. You know, I was

511
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 2: going to say yeah. Inactive last night, Jake Fisher said

512
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 2: he's probably gonna get dealt today. They're weighing their options,

513
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 2: and I guess that often now they go with the

514
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 2: Detroit Pistons getting him.

515
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 6: No more Martins, huh mine, they're on Martin market.

516
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. All right, Well, let's uh, let's leave

517
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: the slop there, all right, you little pigg easy ate enough.

518
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 2: Let's take a break and let's talk a little bit

519
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 2: about the games last night, and let's talk about the

520
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 2: two teams that were involved in the blockbuster over the weekend.

521
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 2: That's the Lakers and the Mavericks. The Lakers crushed the

522
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: Clippers seven, with Luka Doncic watching on the bench, smiling

523
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 2: on the bench, just loving every minute of this crew.

524
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 5: Here's a short video of Luca don walking there. Videos

525
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 5: walking and then sitting down on the bench and then

526
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 5: clapping for done. Did you see him clap? Yeah?

527
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 6: Mike Trudell, Lakers reporter, tweeted last night, Luca Doncic has

528
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 6: done quite a bit of impressed clapping tonight, most recently

529
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 6: including a fist pump and a laugh as Lebron converted

530
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 6: a tough and one, you know.

531
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 2: Like, oh yeah, right in front of him, right in

532
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 2: front of him. Yeah, I do like that.

533
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 6: Luca and Lebron were sitting together all night and Bronny

534
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 6: yeah maybe, of course.

535
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 4: Yeah.

536
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 5: And then and then Bronny hit his first three of

537
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 5: his career, and Luca clapped more than his dad. I'm

538
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 5: not trying to downplay what dad did. Dad clapped and

539
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 5: then did something with his shoes or his his tights.

540
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 5: Luca clapped a little bit more.

541
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 6: Anyway, It is weird to think that Luca is closer

542
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 6: in age to Bronni than Lebron is.

543
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah by far.

544
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 2: By, Yeah yeah, they're like bros man. Yeah. This was

545
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 2: just a beat down here for the Lakers. They had

546
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 2: forty five points in the first quarter, kept it rolling

547
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: obviously throughout the game to get the twenty five point

548
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 2: victory in the into It Dome. Just everybody contributing and Lebron,

549
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a little pep to his step. His

550
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 2: last couple of games, Lebron, you know, in Madison Square

551
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 2: Garden now with Luca on the bench there and you

552
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: know in the into It Dome playing the other LA team,

553
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 2: he's looking a little spry there for the old man.

554
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 2: But any other things from this.

555
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 5: Game, well, the Lakers come in slightly worried. You know,

556
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 5: our two best defensive players and Max Christy Anthony Davis

557
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 5: are gone. But the other guys just came in and

558
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 5: worked their butts off. They worked extremely hard, and then

559
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 5: they shot the ball ridiculously well in the first quarter. Yeah,

560
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 5: they shot seventy five yea and everybody was hitting threes.

561
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 5: So that's the thing. If Lebron and Luca are on

562
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 5: the floor and Ruy banks home two threes in the

563
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 5: first quarter, Austin Reeves banks home two threes in the

564
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 5: first quarter, here comes Gabe to knock one from Gabe

565
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 5: Vincent and Lebron said, well, these guys are working, and

566
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 5: he hit two to end the quarter to give them

567
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 5: forty five points. Then he got a little peeved off

568
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 5: with Dalton connect at the end of the quarter. I

569
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 5: don't know how.

570
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 2: They allowed the bomb.

571
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 5: The bomb. Yeah, the bomb took like ten seconds for

572
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 5: James Harten to get the ball out of bounds and

573
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 5: somehow he just bombed it like a cherry pick. Yeah,

574
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 5: it was a weird, weird situation there, but yeah, Lebron

575
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 5: got his flex on after that, he was super happy, Like,

576
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 5: look at these guys playing for me. Two flexes in

577
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 5: the second quarter, and yeah, the supporting cast, my man,

578
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 5: Jared Vanderbilt coming off the bench, plus twenty one working

579
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 5: his butt off, Gabe hitting four threes, Dalton connect Listen,

580
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 5: JJ Redick is doing a good job of connecting these guys.

581
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 5: I gotta say connect again. Yeah, I mean he said

582
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 5: he was, you know, kind of a little upset and

583
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 5: taking it hard after the end of the first quarter,

584
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 5: and he's he's working it. Man, He's doing a great

585
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 5: job I think getting everybody together.

586
00:27:58,320 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 2: Do you have any comments on this game or the

587
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 2: UKA press conference where he's introduced to the LA fans and.

588
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 6: I like, people just absolutely convinced that this guy was

589
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 6: up crying the entire night previous because he looked a

590
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 6: little bit sad. I mean he did, there are times

591
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 6: he didn't, there are times he looked happy.

592
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

593
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,120
Speaker 6: Very funny though that Rob Polinka started by thanking Nico Harrison,

594
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 6: thank you so much for giving us a franchise. Cornerstom

595
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 6: didn't know why you didn't want him, wasn't interested in

596
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 6: are you mentioned? I'm really Hamura and Austin Reeves. They

597
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 6: both had austin games last night, twenty points a piece.

598
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 6: They both hit some threes. I could see both of

599
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 6: them being moved, to be quite honest, like Austin Reeves

600
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 6: had a great run, helped the Lakers get their season

601
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 6: back on track here. But you bring in Luka Dancac,

602
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 6: He's taking up all of the point guard possessions where

603
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 6: Austin Reeves has been thriving. Does he come off the

604
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 6: bench That might actually be helpful because if you have Lebron,

605
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 6: Luca and Austin Reeves on the court, that's three targets

606
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 6: defensively from the perimeter. Ruy Hachimura, he's more so a

607
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 6: contract that could help them bring somebody back because they're

608
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 6: gonna need a big man. Jackson Hayes he was last night,

609
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 6: but he's not a realistic big man for this team

610
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 6: going forward. So I wonder if Reeves and really are

611
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 6: on the block at all here because they seem like

612
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 6: players who fit more.

613
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 4: So around the Anthony Davis version around this.

614
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 6: Team, and it could those like slots could be used

615
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 6: for something more positive.

616
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, in the West, right now, it's okay, see one,

617
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: Memphis holding on to two, Rockets down to three, then

618
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 2: Nuggets and Lakers four or five. But Lakers only one

619
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 2: game back from Denver, only two games back from the Rockets,

620
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 2: who are on a bit of a weird slide here.

621
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 2: I know we'll get to the crazy ending of that game.

622
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 2: And the Lakers separated themselves by another game with that

623
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 2: win over the Clippers, who are chilling them.

624
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 5: It was weird to see the Clippers, who's now are

625
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 5: sixth and that's the play in tournament. Ain't that far

626
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 5: for them to drop? It was weird to see Kawhi

627
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 5: Leonard getting burned on the defense end. He just wasn't

628
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 5: himself multiple times. Very strange. Everybody wants the All Star

629
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 5: Game to come. I mean these bad teams specifically referring

630
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 5: to like the Clippers the Rockets, who've hit this little

631
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 5: rut of four losses in a row.

632
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: Just want that break.

633
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 5: Oh they do, Yeah they do.

634
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: You know, go hit the island for a couple of days,

635
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 2: getting nice to tan.

636
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, because I consider those guys a good team,

637
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 5: or those teams, good teams. We'll get to the Rockets

638
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 5: in a second. Maybe this losing is good for them.

639
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 2: Wow, what do you think? Just before we move on,

640
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 2: of the ketchup and mustard uniforms last night between these

641
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 2: two squads, because we had the Clippers wearing those bright

642
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 2: reds versus the Lakers and their mustards.

643
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 4: I mean I hadn't thought of them as catch up

644
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 4: and mustard.

645
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 6: I actually liked both of them. Lakers gold is a classic.

646
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 6: And honestly, shout out to the Clippers. Their rebent looks great?

647
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 2: You like it? Yeah?

648
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 4: Good?

649
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,959
Speaker 6: I think this is the best the Clippers have looked.

650
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 4: End of sentence. I guess what guy say? I like

651
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 4: the light blues. I like the reds.

652
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 6: It's like nods back to the Loy Vaught days.

653
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 2: The second show in a row, and we mentioned Loy vont.

654
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 4: Bro He was on Basketball Reference this morning. Yeah, one

655
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 4: of the little headshots.

656
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 2: Oh man. I used to always try and get loydvot

657
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 2: when we played fantasy basketball. She put up numbers sneaky good. Okay,

658
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 2: let's talk about the Mavericks. They lost. No Anthony Davis,

659
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 2: of course, but Embiid he played first game in like

660
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 2: a month.

661
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 3: He was good.

662
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 2: He had a triple double. Sixers got by the Mavericks

663
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 2: one eighteen one sixteen. I will say, this is a

664
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 2: sloppy game at the end and felt like both teams

665
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: were trying to give it away. So it wasn't the

666
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 2: prettiest basketball I've ever seen. But the MAVs, excuse me,

667
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 2: the Sixers get it done over Dallas task what jumped

668
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 2: out to you?

669
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I see people saying, well, Joel Embiid want

670
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 5: to play at the end, they're playing nobody at the

671
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 5: center spot because Lively is hurt, Anthony Davis Saint playing

672
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 5: and then Daniel Gafford actually left this game with three

673
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 5: minutes and twenty seconds left. That would have helped to

674
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 5: have a guy to you know, do something against Joel

675
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 5: Embiid because they were throwing out Arman Walker, Kessler Edwards.

676
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 4: So we're impressed by Kessler and Kyler.

677
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 5: No, they have two k's on that team.

678
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 4: Combined one in twenty three minutes last night.

679
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 5: So not to I really the biggest thing with the

680
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 5: Maverickson watching Dante ax him to see if he could

681
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 5: retain the ball and not turn it over over and over.

682
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 5: He was doing some good things. He was taking it

683
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 5: into the into the lane and doing his thing, uh,

684
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 5: you know, being able to get some push shots and

685
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 5: hold onto the ball because they desperately need a playmaker.

686
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 5: After Luca gone, he looks okay. The other thing was

687
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 5: Cam Christy just looked super solid defensively. He just gets

688
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 5: down in that position every single possession.

689
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 2: Please call me Max, Yes, I'm sorry, I call him Cam.

690
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 5: Why do I call him Cam Bro Cam his brother Cam. Yeah,

691
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 5: it's just funner to say Cam Christy.

692
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 2: I think anyway, I was getting confused with to Edwards playing. Yeah,

693
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 2: we had Edwards on the masks started in this game.

694
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you could tell that Max. Don't call me

695
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 5: Cam can shoot from three and just playoff guys. So

696
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 5: well hit four or four threes in this one, so

697
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 5: he makes sense for him. Although some weird stuff at

698
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 5: the end. It was just weird, just a weird ending

699
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 5: to a basketball But I thought both teams could challenge

700
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 5: a play that was happening on both sides, like Naji

701
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 5: Marshall got hit, Yeah, and the Mavericks should have definitely

702
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 5: challenged that. But at the other end, Joel and Biid

703
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 5: got hit. So how do you challenge that? In a

704
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 5: live play, you call it time out. Challenge that thing

705
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 5: before the challenge, you can't challenge before me because I

706
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 5: got a challenge.

707
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 2: Weird ending, That's what jumped out to me. The Sixers

708
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 2: made like a calculated decision to try and double Kyrie,

709
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 2: like get the ball out of his hands. Who else

710
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: is going to beat us? And it like fell to

711
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,719
Speaker 2: Naji Marshall to like try and make things happen. And

712
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 2: he was attacking, and you know, he wasn't getting calls.

713
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 2: I think he was getting a little frustrated down the

714
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: stretch where there was maybe a couple of times where

715
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 2: he did get hit. But that's like with no Ad

716
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 2: obviously no Luca. Now it's like that's the game plan.

717
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 2: Like I'm sorry, Like Clay had looks he also man,

718
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: he like, holy crap, it's still Klay Thompson. That ball

719
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 2: hits his hands, he's letting it rip. There was a

720
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 2: couple like, oh, I don't know about that one. Clay

721
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 2: finished three of eight but from deep, but yeah, just

722
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 2: get it out of Kyrie's hands. And they were aggressive

723
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 2: doing that.

724
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 4: He's gonna see a lot of double teams now.

725
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 6: For as much as the Nico Harrison decision was wanting

726
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,360
Speaker 6: to bring in Anthony Davis. It's also a bet that

727
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,919
Speaker 6: Kyrie Irving can regain his status as a number one

728
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 6: offensive engine. He hasn't been that guy for a long time,

729
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,239
Speaker 6: you know. Obviously Luca was there with Dallas when he

730
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 6: played for the Nets. Kevin Durant was there, James Harden

731
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 6: was there for a chunk of his tenure as well.

732
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 6: So we'll see what it's like for him now as

733
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 6: the actual number one guy. There were times during the

734
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 6: playoffs last year where it was like Kyrie Irving was

735
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,359
Speaker 6: like twelve points and seven assists. He wasn't really doing

736
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 6: much when he was playing well defensively, is doing what

737
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 6: he had to do. We'll see if he's able to

738
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 6: school up or scale up. Sorry, I thought Embiid look

739
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 6: like Joel Embiid coming back. Like sometimes he looks fast,

740
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 6: sometimes he looks slow, sometimes he looks smooth, sometimes he

741
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 6: looks rusty, all in the same game. But I did

742
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 6: like to see him banging down low in this when

743
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 6: he had six dunks or laps, including basically the last

744
00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,280
Speaker 6: two buckets. He said, Oh, Kessler Edwards and Kyler Kelly

745
00:34:58,320 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 6: is who I'm going to be seeing. Yeah, I can

746
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 6: play my first game in a month.

747
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 4: Sign me up.

748
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 6: No competition out there. He ran wild and Tyrese. Maxi

749
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 6: is on quite the heater right now. Thirty three points,

750
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 6: thirteen assists for him last night. It's a sixth game

751
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 6: with thirty or more points, basically fifty percent field goal

752
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 6: shooting in all of those. He's fourth in the league

753
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 6: in scoring right now. His percentages have come around. It

754
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,360
Speaker 6: was a slow start to the season, really really choppy

755
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 6: for the Philadelphia seventy six Ers. Paul George is still

756
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,720
Speaker 6: not playing right now, but Maxi looks good. Edwards seems

757
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 6: to be like a decent rotation player. Yabuselea has been

758
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 6: a great find. If the Balls had lost last night,

759
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 6: the Sixers would have been in tenth place. Of course,

760
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 6: the Bulls won, so Philly one game from tenth, third

761
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 6: from eighth, four and a half from sixth.

762
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 4: They can still make a run to the playoffs.

763
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,359
Speaker 6: I don't really think they're a scary team, but they

764
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 6: could salvage the season a little bit.

765
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, for sure.

766
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 5: Mavericks. The Mavericks also want that All Star Game to

767
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 5: happen right now because they have dropped two eleventh there's

768
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 5: a four way tie for eighth. Essentially, eight, nine, ten,

769
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,439
Speaker 5: eleven are all tied and there are super banged up.

770
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 5: That's why they need as much time off as possible.

771
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 5: I mentioned Anthony Davis, Derek Lively, but also PJ. Washington

772
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 5: did play in this game. They needed some height and

773
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 5: so they're just lacking. They just they've lost three in

774
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 5: a row. And it would be a tumultuous season. If

775
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 5: the Mavericks fans could say, oh boy, I mean we

776
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 5: missed the playoffs. We missed the play it if it

777
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 5: goes poorly, yeah, and in this Western Conference, it's you

778
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 5: can't say that it won't happen. There is a chance,

779
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 5: but especially with the Spur, the Spurs are of the

780
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 5: team now in twelfth that got better. It's gonna be hard.

781
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: I keep thinking All Star weekend is this weekend. I

782
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 2: don't know why. I just keep thinking, all right, it's

783
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 2: right around the corner. But no, we got the deadline

784
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: and then the All Star weekend next weekend. Uh Tatum

785
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 2: scored twenty two. Celtics held off the Calves one to twelve,

786
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 2: one to five in a matchup of the Eastern Conference's

787
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: best teams. Really impressive win from Boston. You know, remember

788
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 2: when everybody was panicking about them, and a lot of

789
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 2: people are like, Eh, don't worry about it, let's chill.

790
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 2: Uh portzingis obviously back in a huge part, and they

791
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 2: just sort of dominated this game. I know, the cass

792
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 2: I think they got it to maybe four there in

793
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, but for h you know, the Celtics

794
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 2: answered that and got a pretty comfortable victory. But your

795
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:13,839
Speaker 2: biggest takeaway, I.

796
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 5: Guess Nico Harrison was right. Defense wins championships. I mean,

797
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 5: that's that's why they won this game. They just turned

798
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 5: it up defensively. They looked like an entirely different team

799
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 5: to be shooting only thirty four percent in the first

800
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 5: quarter and be up thirteen points, so you're playing d

801
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 5: They shot forty percent from the field for the entire

802
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 5: game and win. They weren't that great from the three

803
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,799
Speaker 5: point line at all, which you know everybody thinks that's

804
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 5: who the Celtics are. You got to play on both ends,

805
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 5: and to see Al Horford come back and be Al

806
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,280
Speaker 5: Horford like he hadn't have it a double digit scoring

807
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,439
Speaker 5: game in twenty days. It's been a while for Al,

808
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 5: So they're starting to look really good.

809
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,520
Speaker 2: That's the thing. It's like, Okay Porzingis, you know, not

810
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 2: the greatest shooting night last night, especially from three, but

811
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 2: like Derek White's on uh oh Al Horford, like you said,

812
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 2: contributing double double off the bench. Oh Like, it's like

813
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 2: you don't worry about Tatum, Relier, Jalen Brown, like their

814
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,439
Speaker 2: stark guys like the odd night here or there maybe

815
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 2: where they struggle, but they're pretty damn consistent. That's where

816
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 2: they're all stars in all NBA players. It's all those

817
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,399
Speaker 2: other guys trade that like once they level up, that's

818
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 2: when that's when Boston looks pretty unbeatable, where you're like,

819
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:16,879
Speaker 2: how how you gonna beat them up? You know, four

820
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 2: times out of seven exactly right.

821
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 6: If they decided to play defense, they're basically unbeatable because

822
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 6: they have so many offensive weapons. Jalen Brown had a

823
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 6: twelve point quarter, Jason Tatum and Kristaps Porzingis both had

824
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 6: eleven point quarters. Derek White had a fourteen point quarter.

825
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 6: But the most important thing is that they limited Cleveland

826
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 6: to five fast breakpoints and eleven three pointers. Like they

827
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 6: were getting back on defense and they were closing out

828
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 6: on the three point line. That's how the Celtics win.

829
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 6: They're on a little bit of a roll right here.

830
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 6: Four straight wins. They beat the Balls, then they had

831
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 6: the Tatum game winner, the huge comeback against Philadelphia, and

832
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 6: now a road win in Cleveland. They've got to be

833
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,959
Speaker 6: feeling good heading into the All Star break.

834
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 4: Here. Pretty soon, I thought it was.

835
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 6: Just good stuff from the Celtics because the Cavs did

836
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 6: their thing where they get a cavalanch, they got back

837
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,439
Speaker 6: into the game and every time the Celtics were ready

838
00:38:59,480 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 6: to respond.

839
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, the problem for the Cavs is George Yang can't

840
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 5: play against the Celtics now when they're playing good.

841
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 2: He's no Caleb Martin. No, that's right.

842
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, And this the idea of Cam Johnson coming to

843
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 5: the Cleveland Cavaliers where they have to upgrade that one

844
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 5: spot on their team would make a heck of a

845
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 5: lot of sense. Now, no Dan Weide in this game,

846
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 5: which would be an upgrade on Georgian's just too slow

847
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:25,879
Speaker 5: for this bosson Celtics right matchup.

848
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 2: That's sure and mobilely brutal night for him. Seven points

849
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 2: three or fourteen shooting. Now, he recently recently returned from

850
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 2: a calf injury. He did not look all that explosive

851
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 2: to me, So he's sort of getting back in the

852
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 2: swing of things. But he's he's huge to them too.

853
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 2: Like you remember, like the first round series against the Magic,

854
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 2: he had some duds. He had a great series in

855
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 2: the second round, but he had like a three point

856
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 2: game and like a ten point game and like not

857
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 2: being aggressive and stuff like that. Like he's just like

858
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 2: he's a catalyst for this team, obviously, and they kept

859
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 2: him in check last night and he just struggled. Wild

860
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 2: game that we have to show you to the ending

861
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 2: of because the Nets stole a win from the Rockets.

862
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 2: Unbelievable closing sequence, Keon Johnson D'angela Russell both making threes

863
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 2: in the final ten seconds as the Nets stunned the

864
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 2: Rockets ninety nine ninety seven, their first home victory in

865
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,400
Speaker 2: two months. You know, they're down four when you had

866
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 2: Johnson hit the three and then aman Thompson just threw

867
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 2: away the inbounds pass gets tapped wisely from Awomu to

868
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: d Lo who buries the three, and suddenly they're up.

869
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 2: And then jail and Green got a look at a

870
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 2: three and pricked it and it was like, Wow, holy crap,

871
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,000
Speaker 2: how did how did the Rockets lose this game? And

872
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 2: how did the Nets win this?

873
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 4: Yeah?

874
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 6: Six points in six seconds. It's moments like this to

875
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 6: make it tanking season bearable. I still remember Thomas Satoranski

876
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 6: and Zach Lavine doing this for the Balls against the

877
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 6: Hornets November twenty nineteen. Nets fans will never forget D'Angelo

878
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 6: Russell's three from the top of the gate.

879
00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 4: Hey, crazy, replace popped. That was a crazy play.

880
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 6: But on if there's any real takeaway, I would say

881
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 6: that it's the Rockets keep blowing fourth quarter leads here.

882
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 4: They're having a tough time.

883
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 6: I'm obviously their team isn't totally full right now, but

884
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 6: they should be better in these fourth quarters.

885
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 5: I believe, yes, And maybe this is a little blessing

886
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,399
Speaker 5: in disguise. When you come out of this you can say,

887
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 5: all right, we've been through those tough moments. When they

888
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 5: actually do win some games now, Fred Vanbiet plays they win.

889
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to agree with that. They don't like

890
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 2: they were chucking three pointers in like the final minute

891
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 2: of this game. Oh yeah, for no reason, Red Shepherd

892
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 2: took one when he didn't need to. Oh, and then

893
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 2: they got the rebound and Green took it right away. Yeah,

894
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 2: like with twenty seconds on the shot clock.

895
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, minute left, they're up four. Reed, Shepherd comes down.

896
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 5: You gotta know time, score and physics even it was

897
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 5: a four on one that yeah, sheperd.

898
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, that should have been a layup or at least

899
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 2: free throws.

900
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, time, Okay, you could burn twenty seconds at

901
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:01,399
Speaker 5: the very least. He just chucked score. All you need

902
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 5: is a layup. You don't need a three pointer. You're

903
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 5: up four, and then physics, you get into the lane.

904
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 5: You dribble like this. You dribble the ball up, there's

905
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 5: a defender in front of you, pass it to the

906
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 5: other guy beside you, because it's a four on one,

907
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 5: or if the guy goes to the guy, you could

908
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 5: pass to physics. You just put it up against the glass.

909
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:23,640
Speaker 2: I would have got an eight plus in physics if

910
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,360
Speaker 2: I could have used basketball analogies. Man, I didn't know

911
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 2: that was so Yeah.

912
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 5: The jailh dre and grabbed the rebound and said, oh man,

913
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 5: this is fun. I only have fourteen seconds now because

914
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,279
Speaker 5: we've got an offensive rebound. I was gonna chuck it.

915
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 5: That was weird. It was very weird. And again you

916
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 5: have Fred's there, then there's no problem. Most likely because

917
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 5: Fred van Vliet is Fred van Vliet.

918
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he just would steady the ship, I think a

919
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 2: little bit. And I'm on Thompson, like, as much as

920
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 2: we've talked this guy up over the last couple of weeks,

921
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 2: he seems like a star in the making. He's fun

922
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 2: as hell to watch. He fills the box score. This

923
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 2: was a bad one. This was a guy that's twenty

924
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,480
Speaker 2: two years old is probably being asked to do a

925
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,439
Speaker 2: little too much. I think he had seven turnovers right,

926
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 2: including that one. It's always the passer's fault. Thompson, I'm sorry, man.

927
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 2: I know maybe Brooks got held or could have grabbed it,

928
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 2: but it was bad pass and like, what are you doing?

929
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 2: You panicked a little bit and nice play again the

930
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 2: tip goes just smart thinking from a who that was awesome.

931
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 2: I thought, like that's you know a lot of people panic.

932
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 2: The offensive player panics in that situation, right or you

933
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 2: get it now, I gotta shoot it. No, just like

934
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,360
Speaker 2: like wisely just tipped to de lo right and rhythm

935
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 2: and bang the three.

936
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, bloody devots tipping it out to Robert Oria.

937
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 4: I think this will go down in history just like that.

938
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, and apparently there's like so this was like a

939
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,919
Speaker 2: bulletin board material game for the Nets because they had

940
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 2: recently beat the Rockets, if I have this correctly. And

941
00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 2: U Dooko was like he basically crapped on them, right,

942
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 2: like the Nets are a bad team. We shouldn't be

943
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 2: losing a bad teams. I'm paraphrasing here, but this one

944
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 2: he was getting they were a lower tier team. A

945
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 2: lower tier team, yes, And.

946
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 6: Wasn't he once almost hired by the Brooklyn Nets and

947
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,080
Speaker 6: then they said, oh, actually we can't do that.

948
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 2: Oh maybe because of the Steve Nash.

949
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 4: I think, isn't that when? Isn't that how that all time?

950
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 5: Yeah?

951
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 2: Sounds sort of right.

952
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:02,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's got a little beef there. So they never

953
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 4: meet in the finals. Should be spicy.

954
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 2: Oh maybe want to win? What a crazy sequence? Any

955
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: other takeaways? TK, I'll start with you from last night's game.

956
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 2: I hope you're going to talk about one particular rookie.

957
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,080
Speaker 6: I've been waiting months to say it. Did Matas buzzellis

958
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 6: just win Rookie of the Year?

959
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: No?

960
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 4: Are you sure?

961
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:21,800
Speaker 5: Yeah?

962
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,440
Speaker 6: Twenty four points a game, ten to ten from the field,

963
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 6: four to four from three, two rebounds, two blocks. According

964
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 6: to Enjoy Basketball, he's the first rookie since Brad Miller

965
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety nine with twenty four or more points

966
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 6: one hundred percent feel your guy, Brad Miller.

967
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 4: Unbelievable to me that this was the thing. Brad was

968
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 4: a hornet back then.

969
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,320
Speaker 6: But I was just thinking, is this the first ever

970
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 6: Rising Stars reverse or reserve revenge game?

971
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:47,600
Speaker 5: Oh?

972
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 4: Wow, Like I was Buzzelli's not.

973
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,919
Speaker 6: In the Rising Stars game. He goes out and puts

974
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,600
Speaker 6: up twenty four points played thirty one minutes. That's actually

975
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 6: like my favorite number from this one. It's in the

976
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 6: most minutes he's played this season. He's in the rotation now,

977
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 6: and to me, the rest of the Bowl season has

978
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 6: to be about Boozellis's development. Like who knows what he's

979
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 6: actually gonna be as a player, but he's gonna be

980
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 6: something because he's got good size, good length, really good

981
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 6: defensive instincts. He's an awesome shop locker already. He's got

982
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 6: some skills, but the most important thing is he's got

983
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 6: a motor. The dude is super competitive, plays really hard,

984
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 6: and you know like he was hitting threes last night.

985
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 6: That will be the swing thing in his game. Can

986
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 6: he make threes four for four last night? But then

987
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 6: you watch his previous game against Detroit and you're seeing

988
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,799
Speaker 6: some atrociousness? Is it if it's going in looks nice.

989
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:36,360
Speaker 6: If it's not, Yike's a rooney. But I love Bozellis.

990
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,399
Speaker 6: I love this man, Boozy Vert, thank you so much

991
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 6: for dropping to number eleven.

992
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 4: Steal all the drafts.

993
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,399
Speaker 2: It is so weird he's not in the Rising Stars game.

994
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,919
Speaker 2: It's like I almost wondered, did they ask him because

995
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 2: he's going in the dunk contest and he was like,

996
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,439
Speaker 2: I'll just do Saturdays. He isn't he there?

997
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:53,879
Speaker 4: Allegedly he's upset that they didn't.

998
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:55,800
Speaker 2: I mean he should be. He should be, but he

999
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 2: should blame Billy Donnovan. Really, I mean, he didn't get

1000
00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 2: a lot of opportunity.

1001
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 6: They didn't play him earlier. Yeah, he still makes a

1002
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 6: lot of mistakes because he's young. Yeah, but he didn't

1003
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,359
Speaker 6: make any last night. No, No, he did, but not

1004
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 6: on the offensive.

1005
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 5: That was his best game for sure. I will just

1006
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 5: give a little head nod to the Toronto Raptors for

1007
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,919
Speaker 5: playing Jalen Brunson, who were playing played well against Jallen

1008
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 5: Brunson in the New York next they came and fought back.

1009
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 5: Jalen Brunson hit clutch shot just like he did the

1010
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 5: night before against Houston Rockets. It was almost the same spot.

1011
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 5: He was great. He had to close out the Toronto

1012
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,240
Speaker 5: Raptors because they fought back. Jalen Brunson in the postgame

1013
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 5: interview gave some respect to the Toronto Raptors. He said,

1014
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,799
Speaker 5: ever since they got that new coach, they play hard

1015
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 5: for them.

1016
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 2: His name, but yeah, you know that guy. Guy likes pizza.

1017
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 5: He also said, man. He also said I missed a

1018
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 5: couple of threes. His voice cracked and he said, oh.

1019
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 5: He called himself out. He said, oh, I gotta get

1020
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 5: rid of those cracks. He literally stopped himself. His voice cracked.

1021
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 5: You don't hear that too in the NBA. But Jalen

1022
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 5: Brunson coming through, they had a back to back. I

1023
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 5: guess we could have said that for the Houston Rockets,

1024
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 5: I suppose, but yeah, Joen Brunson came through just like

1025
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 5: you did the night before. He looked, oh my god.

1026
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 2: And cat twenty seven and twenty that's a lot of

1027
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 2: roast beef. Yeah, we were just talking about guys that had.

1028
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 4: Let go seven at halftime.

1029
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 2: It was fantastic. So yeah, good win. And then the

1030
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 2: only other note I wanted to throw in here was

1031
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 2: I was surprised to see I didn't watch any of

1032
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 2: this Blazers Pacers game. Blazers red hot though, number one

1033
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:31,760
Speaker 2: team in the league right now. They crushed the Pacers

1034
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 2: and Tyrese Halibert zero points and he played like I

1035
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: was like, God, you get injured? What happened? I mean,

1036
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: he played, he only took three shot attempts. Timanti camera

1037
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 2: just locking them up and U a brutal game from him.

1038
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 2: But Blazers, man, this is unreal what they're doing.

1039
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 6: The Blazers are putting the clamps on everybody right now.

1040
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 6: They held Indiana to eighty nine points. It's the fourth

1041
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 6: time in the last eight games that the Blazers have

1042
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 6: held a team under one hundred points. They've won five straight.

1043
00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 6: Scoot last night seventeen points, three threes, eight rebounds, five assists,

1044
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 6: two turnovers. It ain't gonna last the entire season that

1045
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 6: the Blazers are this good, but they're rolling right now.

1046
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 6: They're playing defense and they're playing hard like Scoot's a

1047
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:12,720
Speaker 6: pretty solid defender. Chauncey Billups is using him in clutch

1048
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 6: moments as that they're like going offense defense and Scoot

1049
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 6: is the defense guy.

1050
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1051
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,800
Speaker 6: So if he's committed to playing defense and his offensive

1052
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 6: game is actually coming around, he'll be able to start

1053
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 6: for that team someday. I know that's not what the

1054
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 6: Blazers were hoping when they traded Damian Lillard and then

1055
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,479
Speaker 6: drafted him number three, But I still think he's gonna

1056
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,240
Speaker 6: be at least a decent player eventually.

1057
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he's on the same team for that Rising

1058
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 5: Stars game as too many Kamara, They're gonna have some

1059
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 5: chemistry out there. This team has won more games than

1060
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 5: they won last year.

1061
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's wild, good stuff for them. Let's talk about

1062
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 2: the Rising Stars draft results. Chris Mullen, Mitch Richmond, Tim

1063
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,880
Speaker 2: Hardaway Senior. They drafted their teams yesterday with Jared Greenberg

1064
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 2: for the twenty twenty five Rising Stars. Don't say challenge,

1065
00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 2: it's not Rising Stars Challenge, it's just Rising Star. Each

1066
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 2: NBA Legend selected seven players from the pool of twenty

1067
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 2: one NBA rookies and sophomores. I'm and Thompson went first

1068
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 2: overall to Team M. This graphic was driving me insane

1069
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 2: because they have Team M there in the middle. But

1070
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 2: Mitch Richmond did have the number one pick. But I

1071
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 2: think they just really wanted it to say TMC at

1072
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:26,000
Speaker 2: the top, driving me insane. But there's a look at

1073
00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 2: it for everybody on YouTube. I'm not gonna go through

1074
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 2: it for the podcast listeners. Jeremy Lynn will lead the

1075
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 2: team of seven players representing the NBA G League. So

1076
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: that's the fourth team TK. I'll ask you first some

1077
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 2: which team you like and who did the best drafting

1078
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 2: in your opinion.

1079
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 4: Team M looks nice.

1080
00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:45,960
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, you got twins and Amen and Asar both

1081
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 6: on the team. You got two Trailblazers in Scoot and Toumani,

1082
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 6: and you got two Wizards in Bawall and bub Carrington.

1083
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 6: This team is going to be impossible to score on.

1084
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's Missy as their big mean. Yeah, it's a

1085
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 2: good looking team. I think that's my favorite team.

1086
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, Task it's got too many defenders for the other

1087
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 5: teams to beat them. And I don't mind that they

1088
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 5: put t MC in that order on the graphic. Skates.

1089
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:13,359
Speaker 5: I'm okay with it because nobody really remembers the Rising

1090
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,239
Speaker 5: Stars game, but they will remember this one. I'm never

1091
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,839
Speaker 5: looked at this graphic because TMC is a good move.

1092
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 5: But yeah, that drafting by Team I just I just got.

1093
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 2: Very confused when I first saw this. I didn't watch

1094
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 2: it live. I know that's shocking that I thought Cason

1095
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 2: Wallace went number one. You know, when you look at

1096
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 2: it and you even think if it's a Snake draft,

1097
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, wow, Wallace went number one. But no,

1098
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 2: he did it. He went he went early, but not

1099
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 2: number one. So there it is.

1100
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:44,800
Speaker 4: That's a nice experienced team there. Team T. Yeah, Pocas

1101
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 4: is an old guy. Tristan to Selva is an old rookie.

1102
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 5: This is true.

1103
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 2: One of my eperiands my favorite things about this is

1104
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 2: like those guys the Legends were prohibited it said from

1105
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 2: making trades. No trades are Like, this is already a

1106
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:03,800
Speaker 2: nightmare for our production team to put up the names.

1107
00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 2: You can't possibly go swapping guys. Saw made me laugh. Anyway,

1108
00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:09,839
Speaker 2: that was a good job by Jared Greenberg. I did

1109
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,439
Speaker 2: watch some small part of it to make sure im

1110
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 2: and Thompson went number one.

1111
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,759
Speaker 5: I'm sure there's those hater videos that's that are being

1112
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:20,279
Speaker 5: produced to say that Zacharissa Che and Alex Sar, the

1113
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 5: guys drafted one to two got drafted.

1114
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 2: In the Rising Stars late, oh very late, very.

1115
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 5: Last three rounds. Wow. Yeah, So there's gotta be somebody

1116
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 5: who made that, some haters that I want to point

1117
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 5: that out, But I just did well.

1118

1358
01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:28,880
Speaker 4: the game.

1359
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,360

1360
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 2: All right, thanks for playing. Let's get to the Pickham

1361
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,000
Speaker 2: game for tonight. Who do we got to task?

1362
01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:44,120
Speaker 5: We're going to Sacramento, Zach Lavine probably making his Sacramento

1363
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:47,320
Speaker 5: King's debut. Most likely they're hosting the Orlando Magic, who

1364
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:52,160
Speaker 5: are sure struggling right now on this road trip. Sacramento's

1365
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,240
Speaker 5: here by five and a half, and so they're playing

1366
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 5: a lot better than the Orlanto Magic. So I guess

1367
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:01,720
Speaker 5: that's why the first three picks in the Google doc

1368
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:05,520
Speaker 5: today we're all Kings, Kings, Kings. That forced Esh to

1369
01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 5: take the Orlando Magic because we just never let someone

1370
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 5: pick the same as the other three.

1371
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 2: But that has worked out extremely well. The point for

1372
01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 2: the person that's been forced to swerve, like, if you

1373
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 2: go back and look, it hits more times than not.

1374
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:22,040
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, oh, I flashed back to December when it

1375
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:25,680
Speaker 5: happened for Trey and that basically turned it so I

1376
01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:29,240
Speaker 5: would lose. Yeah, anyway, five and a half. We got

1377
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:32,440
Speaker 5: to win by six taking the Kings. Es just has

1378
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 5: to cover those five points for the Land of Magic.

1379
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 5: Who again, man, they just ain't right and they played less.

1380
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:40,600
Speaker 2: But you did say Polo always has a bad game,

1381
01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:42,200
Speaker 2: then he has a good game. Bad game. Cook game,

1382
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 2: bad game cook.

1383
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 5: That's what I did say. Yeah, yeah, but that that

1384
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 5: didn't happen after last night. They're right, they're fine, No, no,

1385
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:51,480
Speaker 5: excuse me.
