CAN'T EVEN WIN THE LOTTERY

[00:00:00] It's a night before we get into anything. We got to get it started to get it off my chest

[00:00:07] So, getting it off my chest I want to know why people don't want to be great

[00:00:16] Why don't Sports want to be great? Now, before I get into why you know, coach Tibolo doesn't want to be great

[00:00:28] I got to talk about the sport of boxing

[00:00:32] So as I sit back all throughout my life, it's all it's been all about the heavyweights

[00:00:40] You know, my Tyson a Vander Holyfield you have ready bow on the scene for a couple of years

[00:00:45] Linux Lewis there was a David two over running around even Roy Jones came up the be a heavyweight

[00:00:52] The heavyweight division was the bread and butter of this great sport

[00:00:59] So as we fast forward

[00:01:01] You know the little guy started taking over your boy Jones is Floyd Mayweather's

[00:01:07] Your tarvers came through for a little bit even now but Crawford you know

[00:01:13] Earl Spence you know you got the little guys can now low

[00:01:17] Smaller but not necessarily little, but you get the point not heavyweights that have been in the four front of box

[00:01:24] So then last year we had an Apollo Creed Rocky Bell Bower moment

[00:01:30] Where champion Tyson Fury took on Francis a guy who from the UFC and I thought to myself like oh

[00:01:38] Boxing is coming again, you know a guy who held his own

[00:01:42] We had something to talk about for a few days

[00:01:45] And then of course Anthony Joshua made sure we stopped all that talk real quick

[00:01:49] Yeah, but

[00:01:51] But at the time you know Tyson Fury

[00:01:56] Got met in a ring by Alexander Ousic

[00:02:00] Trying to challenge for his title. It was the new biggest heavyweight fight that was coming through

[00:02:05] Tyson Fury got rid of deonté Wilder and here we are this was the fight that everybody wanted

[00:02:11] This was the fight that boxing needed to bring the attention back to that heavyweight division

[00:02:18] So then me and Mr. Lodge came on here after listening to Tyson Fury

[00:02:22] It sounded like he was going over tired

[00:02:24] It sounded like his heart wasn't into it anymore. He was out of shape so on so forth

[00:02:30] So low and behold I

[00:02:32] Wicked this morning and I see a picture of Tyson Fury's dad bloody

[00:02:38] Look at the head, but it's someone who says camp

[00:02:42] And I was like whoa

[00:02:44] Like where they meet up at oh they're fighting this weekend

[00:02:50] The biggest fight in boxing is happening this weekend

[00:02:57] Who knew that you know I hadn't heard anybody talking about it people are still talking about Konello and Crawford

[00:03:07] You know people are talking about why as Konello duck and Bina Vita is

[00:03:11] People are talking about camposos getting stopped by low-bent shanko the other night

[00:03:16] We're talking about Ryan Garcia and all his fuckery against Devon Hayney

[00:03:23] And here we all with Tyson Fury and who's sitting right in our face and nobody gives a damn

[00:03:30] So after all this time that me and Mr. Lodge go or Mr. Lodge Kullen eye

[00:03:34] We're having this discussion about whether Tyson Fury's going over tire

[00:03:39] It looks like boxing over tire

[00:03:44] Yes, not in good luck. It's not a good look for the sport

[00:03:48] Two things the Konello fight

[00:03:51] Just happened that they get talked about a lot and then Devon Hayney Ryan Garcia

[00:03:58] Eddie Huren did need to wear a suit

[00:04:02] He was wearing like just slacks some of you know

[00:04:06] Nice black t-shirt and an over like a jacket. I'm like this is a

[00:04:11] It shouldn't have been a championship fight it didn't even treat it like a championship fight

[00:04:15] They treated it like he was something it was they treated like it was a Jake Paul fight

[00:04:20] And it's like you know like haven't been gymlappedly was always in the touch more Jones

[00:04:26] You guys always in the sucks

[00:04:28] Magistrate in the touch like they were just literally on

[00:04:32] ringside yeah, very merchant. They were tough if it was if it was a fight

[00:04:38] They wasn't they weren't tough cittos. It was legit

[00:04:41] These guys out there and stuff out where to work

[00:04:46] Saying business casual like you know since golf pants and it's just I know it just seems like

[00:04:52] It's like they're not taking a serious. I think maybe the average husband money is so crazy

[00:04:57] That it's a big enough check

[00:05:00] That you don't need the the draw like maybe the zone is just giving them

[00:05:05] 12 million off the rip and

[00:05:07] This like a minimal work so you get 12 million from this you get 12 million from monster energy or prime or whatever drink sponsors

[00:05:15] So you get a nice few checks coming in so you walk away with 30 million

[00:05:20] So it's like they're I really need to put that much effort to just know other competition but yeah

[00:05:24] It's definitely I mean these guys want these they want these hundred million dollar fights

[00:05:28] They want these Floyd made weather back down cards. There's like yeah, at least suit up

[00:05:35] But they don't want to do that

[00:05:38] They know they know we're gonna watch no matter what same we're gonna watch NBA and that's why I got to get this off my chest

[00:05:43] We're gonna shout out

[00:05:45] So to reach for the shirt

[00:05:48] Me home me

[00:05:50] I mean, so it's a surprise surprise. I appreciate that thank you

[00:05:55] uh

[00:05:58] I don't like the NBA

[00:06:01] Replace system

[00:06:03] I don't like I know I'm clapping a job as a caucus and I hope they call me back because we might put my input on it

[00:06:10] But I don't like

[00:06:13] I don't like their challenge process. I know it's new in there and they're figuring it out

[00:06:18] You know it's over a couple of years

[00:06:20] This has probably been the most I've seen of guys just doing this after every I'm like listen man

[00:06:25] It's a ball out of bounds

[00:06:28] 11 minutes left in the third quarter like your coaches not going to challenge that just get back and play defense like it is what it is

[00:06:34] But in that final couple of minutes

[00:06:37] It's a life challenges the thing I don't like if these subjective calls like

[00:06:44] Files

[00:06:46] And then they go to the replay and

[00:06:49] The one plant particular that really caught my was game three Indiana

[00:06:56] Benix

[00:06:58] Think Jalen Brunston was coming up at the left side

[00:07:01] And the guy was garden and he was reaching in file and pretty much the entire time

[00:07:07] Jalen was dribbling the ball

[00:07:09] Reach and reach and reach and reach and reach and reach and he came off. He beat him with the left hand and came around

[00:07:15] And then Halleburton reached in

[00:07:18] And look like they called a file on

[00:07:21] Halleburton of the guy defended him

[00:07:24] But they blew the whistle at that point so Indiana challenged it

[00:07:29] Even though he was clearly filing him the entire time he was dribbling

[00:07:37] Since they blew the whistle after what they thought was a file that wasn't a file it got reversed

[00:07:44] So it's like he was following a whole time so it's like you can't look at idiots

[00:07:49] Suppired to like set for the whistle

[00:07:51] And at that point like I remember a couple of years ago where I

[00:07:56] believe

[00:07:58] Patrick Beverly was dribbling the ball I think you're saying so plan for the makers

[00:08:02] Devon booker slap the ball out of bounds any other time that's

[00:08:07] Make a ball if you're playing on the basketball court and you strip me and it goes out of bounds

[00:08:13] It's my ball but in the super slow mode

[00:08:16] You can see it barely graze Beverly's finger as it went out of bounds

[00:08:22] So up nope feeling small

[00:08:24] Because you can slow it down it took like 30 minutes like the last two minutes of the game was like makers

[00:08:29] sons

[00:08:31] I don't I don't like it. I don't like how to implement it. I think this just let the rest make the calls

[00:08:36] Make the calls and go with it

[00:08:38] It should be clear cut who knocked the ball out of bounds

[00:08:43] Was it a goal 10 was the guy outside of a strict area like those concrete lines of demarcation those on these

[00:08:51] The files

[00:08:52] Because every file doesn't get reviewed

[00:08:55] So it could be a play in the first quarter that wasn't a file you're not gonna review that

[00:09:00] So why should this fourth quarter file get more attention?

[00:09:04] All these files count so

[00:09:06] Simply use was this a back court was decided bounds was this a golden what is this shot clock violation

[00:09:13] Things that you could look at that are not subjective is like this is concrete

[00:09:17] You had the ball in his hands zeroes on a clock shots no good

[00:09:22] But these files because like I said he was following the whole possession

[00:09:25] He was reaching in he was bumping on him. He was blocking them they just didn't call it

[00:09:30] They called they called the Phantom file

[00:09:34] And

[00:09:36] That got reversed but he was like intimidals like yeah, he was

[00:09:40] You're starting from half court to the three point line

[00:09:43] So figure out revamping get rid of the file calls like just like wishes to file you go with it

[00:09:51] Yeah, I don't mind you know reviewing the play grits even though sometimes oh yeah

[00:09:55] Flick flicker counts too, but I think he's sometimes then they go overboard

[00:10:01] Yeah, and you know I know the one that always you know sticks in your crawl if you will

[00:10:08] Is the one from game one of the 2018 finals

[00:10:12] Kevin Durant LeBron James the charge that wasn't

[00:10:16] You know, I know that's the genesis of a lot of this is

[00:10:21] It was

[00:10:25] Oh

[00:10:27] This is for me being pissed off about it. Well, no just just the just the it was the genesis of us questioning

[00:10:34] The system because you know they got it wrong when they were reversed it in the first place

[00:10:40] And they took forever to do it

[00:10:44] Yeah, and he was like he was clearly outside of a strict area and I think at that point that was the only thing you could challenge was

[00:10:50] Was the defender in the restricted area and

[00:10:54] It wasn't even close so it wasn't to the point where the rest even needed to

[00:10:59] Check because he was so far outside of a strict area, but even with that is like

[00:11:03] They changed the call in an MBA finals game that's a bang bang play in real time

[00:11:10] At they looked at in a slow motion for 12 minutes right and then the whole you know round one

[00:11:17] Denver Lakers the whole marginal contact

[00:11:22] Yeah, so yeah, they need to figure out something either

[00:11:26] Honestly I say take I think take the coaches challenges away is the same thing when an NFL had the past and the

[00:11:32] Fairness challenges like yeah, if I slow it down every single deep ball looks like passing the fairs

[00:11:38] But they never reversed it so yeah, this guy would have challenged and if you wouldn't have challenged give the time out back

[00:11:45] Don't take my time out if I wouldn't have challenged

[00:11:50] I had to burn in time out because you made a proverbial mistake now

[00:11:54] And I'm still gonna hear a wise because of your mistake

[00:11:57] Yeah, and sometimes you need to get the ball it might be a jump ball so you still might not even get the ball

[00:12:02] Right the foul might not get called you or like when I saw like the one in the against a okay

[00:12:08] See into worlds where they gave the foul

[00:12:12] To the other guy and it's like you can't look at the replay and then find a fault and then just switching

[00:12:19] You got up on like we missed that but we're gonna take away the call. We did make

[00:12:23] And we go play ball like now we'll give it another guy now because we slow it out it just you know

[00:12:27] It's in a bombination of of good flow to a game

[00:12:31] So I see a deal to these that are this important because I gave three that Indiana knew it was still in the balance

[00:12:38] Like get that foul stands jayling shooting two free throws the whole outcome the whole series is different

[00:12:46] Speaking of which we got series we saw it yesterday Indiana and Denver

[00:12:52] Clond out of their two old holes and now we have two two series in both of those brackets

[00:12:59] You know Boston came through tonight, you know

[00:13:02] Hell don't the beat cleave on the go at three one. We got Dallas what a half-time lead right now. But let's go back

[00:13:09] To this series that's coming back near your neck at a woods

[00:13:13] yeah

[00:13:16] Did I say something last week that is gonna prove to be correct?

[00:13:22] I

[00:13:24] said that

[00:13:26] The nix lead the in this and four five because

[00:13:29] If we get to game six we get the game seven

[00:13:33] There's gonna be no nix left and you know we saw at a noby

[00:13:37] He's out and he's out tomorrow for game five as well with the hamstring

[00:13:42] Josh hard has already played four complete playoff games out of the tin playoff games that the nix have already played

[00:13:50] Jellon Brunsett has a banged up foot

[00:13:53] Charter red

[00:13:54] Mitchell Robinson's out for the rest of the playoffs

[00:13:58] Both out of it is out for the rest of the playoffs

[00:14:01] So at some point you just get to a point where you just don't have the bodies to compete anymore

[00:14:06] Now with that being said

[00:14:08] I don't want to make any excuses because the nix are the better team Indiana regardless of what we saw yesterday

[00:14:15] Even though they won by I think it was 33 points

[00:14:18] They still can't guard anybody

[00:14:21] So I still expect the nix to win this series

[00:14:25] But what I think has happened now

[00:14:29] Is whatever resistance the nix were gonna give Boston you know maybe stretch it out to a six game series

[00:14:35] That's out the window now

[00:14:37] You know maybe the nix will get one just because Boston tends to do that

[00:14:43] But I think they're hold on they'll win this series the win tomorrow night

[00:14:47] And then they should close it out in Indiana. I will see I can't

[00:14:52] I can't call that because I just don't know what the nix are gonna look like you know from a personnel standpoint

[00:14:59] Dante even chanso

[00:15:01] The nix wasted in all time game by him

[00:15:05] In game three that this the logical was talking about he had 35 points

[00:15:11] You know, he was the leader of that night yesterday he came back and

[00:15:15] Turned back into a frog in the other has a Hall of Burton issue

[00:15:22] From the standpoint of

[00:15:25] He tends the last couple of games to start out very fast

[00:15:29] And then he just takes his foot off the gas

[00:15:32] He gets back into I guess facilitator mode

[00:15:37] And instead of just push it because he has the advantage he has the hot hand

[00:15:42] I guess it's just his personality to be the setup guy

[00:15:46] We saw something similar with Kevin Durant when he was in LKC where

[00:15:51] He always deferred to Russell Westbrook and then it led to us challenging him and questioning him

[00:15:58] Of how great of a player he was

[00:16:00] I think that's where we all retired resalebert is

[00:16:04] You know if you start off the game 1114 you just gotta keep going until it doesn't work anymore

[00:16:10] The nix come back every single time when he takes his foot off the gas

[00:16:14] This is a team that is tired like I've mentioned it

[00:16:17] You gotta keep

[00:16:19] President put it in their chest if you will take them to the basket draw files keep them off balance

[00:16:26] But this new MBA that we're in

[00:16:29] Everybody wants to turn every game into a three-point contest so even within Dianna has a 12 point lead

[00:16:36] They have the advantage they have the nix on their heels

[00:16:39] They take three straight three pointers in three straight possessions and then before you could blink the nix cut it down the six

[00:16:54] I mean you got tubes

[00:16:57] Hopefully ill figure it out

[00:17:00] But Indiana's plan to speed that's that's gonna help them because the nutrition of nix is going is huge

[00:17:07] Then you see you're gonna run out of nix. You're gonna run out of play is gonna run out of guys

[00:17:10] We can make real impact

[00:17:13] And you often start a race that even if you're careful

[00:17:16] We gotta be careful saying the word nix. You know I saw what happened to Paul Pierce earlier

[00:17:24] Yo, he's hilarious. I think he needs to stop drinking before you go on TV but

[00:17:29] I like Paul said at the pop here side I just viewed it

[00:17:33] You speak his show don't get back

[00:17:36] Yeah, so like I said the nix

[00:17:40] They had it

[00:17:42] I don't know maybe just being at home maybe wrap wrap up in the end. I think the maybe Carlisle kind of puttin the plug up there like yo

[00:17:51] Get a small market a little love

[00:17:54] But

[00:17:54] It might have been smart

[00:17:56] to rest jail and breast in game three. I know it's hindsight is 2020

[00:18:02] You you probably should have rested him game three or maybe he just needs to keep moving

[00:18:06] Because I know when he came back with the footage we keep playing the whole second half

[00:18:10] So you had to guide me to a whole quarter

[00:18:15] And then you play him the whole second half and it's like

[00:18:18] Did he need to stay warm and he couldn't get loose?

[00:18:21] I mean we know to keep eating pads on the side line NBA games because it's wrapped his foot in that

[00:18:26] Keep in nice and warm, but you gotta get these guys at break

[00:18:31] Well even yesterday even yesterday the pacer's won by 32

[00:18:37] And even chinsol and bruncin combined for 62 minutes

[00:18:41] And a 32 point loss

[00:18:44] Like that was your afternoon they were down 30 in the third right yeah, they were down 30 at half time

[00:18:50] So I'm not saying that you come out in the third quarter and invest everybody

[00:18:54] But you know give it five minutes

[00:18:56] You know see if you can get it down to 20

[00:18:59] If you don't get the 20 but you know seven minute mark you put some backups in

[00:19:05] Maybe maybe they go on a run

[00:19:07] Maybe Indiana takes their foot up the guys because you put backups and similar to how Miami did in first round

[00:19:13] against boss when they were up 34

[00:19:16] Maybe you get some guys in there you get three or four possessions some guy hits three out of

[00:19:21] You know they three three out of four possessions

[00:19:25] Yeah, crazy things I've had these guys are NBA talent so I'm pretty sure they could knock it down

[00:19:30] But you gotta do something different

[00:19:32] Yeah, I picked you to win so like I need that to happen

[00:19:37] And you know I mean shout out to Indiana though, you know like you know they didn't give a you know, especially

[00:19:44] They could I mean honestly, you know, I don't like to do the thing but just couldn't have been a sweat this week

[00:19:50] You know Indiana

[00:19:51] Had a chance to win game one there was the whole screen against milestoneer and the whole lot of bounds

[00:19:58] You know was it all for G.L. and Bruncin or not

[00:20:00] You know came to what I've always put I remember that one

[00:20:04] Yeah, yeah, definitely love this for you. Yeah game two was close, you know, so like if I'm Indiana

[00:20:09] I feel pretty good right now, you know obviously I feel good because it's too too

[00:20:13] But I feel good because not only do we have momentum

[00:20:17] But you're slowly falling apart

[00:20:20] So you know so physically and

[00:20:24] And with my style of play

[00:20:28] I'm dictating to you

[00:20:30] How fast I want you to play if I want to speed you up if I want to speed you up and then slow you down

[00:20:36] The speed you back up like how deep into your bench. Can you go to like how many guys can you look down and be like, you know

[00:20:43] What this guy can get me 12 to 15 minutes like do you have does do you have two more guys?

[00:20:49] That can give Jalen Bruncin a few minutes on the bench

[00:20:54] Like just have another body out there

[00:20:56] And I'll stop here and I'll stop him jill and Bruncin

[00:21:00] Doing his best Luca and personation and dribbling the ball for 19 seconds

[00:21:05] Outside of those possessions the mix are basically playing the pacers game

[00:21:11] But maybe I'm homeless this shot to fall because I was watching shot the first things first

[00:21:16] And they were talking about a you know as we'll talk about everybody's like, you know making adjustments

[00:21:21] You know for the games you'd lost to the the games you want

[00:21:26] Sometimes it's not really adjustment so sometimes it's like did the ball go in right?

[00:21:33] I think you're you locked into what you're doing is like unless you really had to make a real change because somebody

[00:21:41] You know somebody unexpected like Josh Hart's going for 30 okay we got to make an adjustment but for the most part

[00:21:48] It's a matter of you play your defense as best you can you got to knock down your shots

[00:21:53] Like when you get open three smiles turning when you come on this pop you just pick and pop

[00:21:58] You got to open look you just got to knock it down. I don't need to make adjustments if the score is

[00:22:03] 28 25 at the end of first because we made our shots

[00:22:07] But if it's 28 12 they're looks like I need to make a Justin like no, you obviously to make these shots

[00:22:12] You need to make your open shots and when you make open shots

[00:22:15] Then you slow other team down they can't get out in transition you miss a long three

[00:22:20] Bruncin gets to rebound even children because the rebound at top of the key and they're running

[00:22:25] You're just a big difference with that ball goes through the hoop you get like three or four seconds to set up your defense

[00:22:30] Maybe you want a full court press maybe you want to trap

[00:22:32] But you can't do that if you miss a shot so it's not really a adjustments. I think it's matter like not that you're shot

[00:22:37] So we can stay within our the framework of our game plan

[00:22:40] Yeah, that's one of the few things I really believe Rivers on is that it's a make of this leak

[00:22:46] So you know, that's definitely holding true right now speaking of which you know the different of it you brought them up

[00:22:55] Yesterday, you know I'm gonna focus on yesterday for a second

[00:23:00] Pat and Anthony Edwards

[00:23:03] Took a combined 43 shots

[00:23:07] You know

[00:23:09] Evan the Edwards went 16 for 25

[00:23:12] Cat with five for 18

[00:23:16] You know so another one of those wise my seven footer

[00:23:20] Shooting below 50 percent and why is he shooting below 30 percent?

[00:23:27] Because I mean that's like I said that's his game you just got to knock down those shots when you get them

[00:23:34] The problem is like I watched game three was pretty pretty much all the yesterday

[00:23:40] It felt like when Denver was getting out and getting their layups in Jamal Murray was knocking down his contested shots

[00:23:48] Minnesota was rushing their shots in the other end

[00:23:52] You know the or like are they just were missing their open shots Denver's out running

[00:23:58] Murray had a bounce yet a swag he was flexing to the crowd. They were boon them every time

[00:24:03] Which I think kind of like some of these guys need that

[00:24:07] They need to be booed they need to feel like I'm disappointing

[00:24:11] You know some 12 year old kid first time out of playoff game and he's booing me

[00:24:16] I want to hit this three right in front of him and his grandma

[00:24:18] So he was good at driving

[00:24:21] Yeah, some guys just needed you know certain players you know talking about Jordan he would fabricate beef

[00:24:28] Just do the same year like listen, I didn't see Jordan at a bar and see him at the barber shop

[00:24:33] I didn't see it anywhere so I don't know what his story came from

[00:24:36] That he said that I said this to him and that's why he had to drop 50 oh me like I don't know what it's came from

[00:24:41] But sometimes just need that and I think Jamal once you had that bounce

[00:24:45] And they and I think they saw it that five that the three days of rest in between

[00:24:51] They'll feel up this calf

[00:24:53] Because they play on Monday and that's what I thought that

[00:24:55] Yeah, and they play Friday, you know Freddie right so like he can probably he probably chilled all week is like he knows a game plan

[00:25:02] Like he needs a practice

[00:25:04] probably stay loose train

[00:25:06] They probably had one of those like machine that they took to his hotel room that he plugged in and I'm a size as legs like slept

[00:25:13] But one of his recovery braces or whatever

[00:25:15] So I think he just had that different bounce and I believe that Minnesota noticed

[00:25:21] Okay, he's on one the day and Yoke is what he even trying to do and the Yoke is just like that

[00:25:26] Jamal's got it. I'm like get you you're cuz like I'm gonna get my 24 10 and and eight

[00:25:32] So I'll just let that come to me, but he was like Jamal had it going and then we saw I have that ended a half of game for

[00:25:41] the the three

[00:25:43] The turnover the dump the other turnover the long three even though he definitely traveled

[00:25:50] You caught the ball going sideways

[00:25:52] Yeah, turnered to two steps at the side it didn't dribble in once right get right front of the ref

[00:25:59] Like I guess we don't call travels

[00:26:03] But yeah, that was just when game they lost by eight points

[00:26:06] Yeah, but when he had that bounce that bounces intimidating. I think that I think that caught Minnesota of guard

[00:26:12] And that's why I like when we were talking last week

[00:26:17] That was what I brought up is game three wasn't until Friday

[00:26:21] So he was gonna have that time to rest and catch up and

[00:26:26] You know like looking back at yesterday there were some anomalies there

[00:26:30] You know Aaron Gordon went 11 for 12

[00:26:32] You know a bit of soda said something along the lines of if he's going to come out and be Kobe Bryant

[00:26:38] You know like you just got a shake his hand

[00:26:40] Yeah, you gotta live with that yeah, you don't live with that you're not one as ass a few times or

[00:26:45] You know your the fifths of player of the gear

[00:26:48] You know that takes control of the pain how about that?

[00:26:52] You know air had it going in game three he was knocking out I think he knocked down consecutive threes

[00:26:59] Michael Porter Jr knocked down the three like every time because Minnesota was cutting into like single digits

[00:27:05] And then

[00:27:06] They're going to run they get it to 15 they get it down the 11

[00:27:12] Get a stop

[00:27:13] Come back miss it

[00:27:15] Then we're goes back hits the three they get it the 14 and it felt like that just kept happening

[00:27:21] Well, and the the other part of what I said

[00:27:24] You know when we were previewing this series was how does Minnesota react to prosperity

[00:27:30] And how did they react the first time they run into adversity

[00:27:33] Because they had they didn't lose a game of Phoenix

[00:27:36] They went into Denver and won the first two games so now you're in a commendrum because now it's a three game series

[00:27:44] And if it goes all three two of those games are in Denver

[00:27:48] So

[00:27:50] We had a poor games in Denver

[00:27:54] Like you know because they could win tomorrow

[00:27:57] And then it's all up to them to protect their home court which no one has done in the series yet

[00:28:03] No, but

[00:28:06] Can you really count on winning three games at Denver?

[00:28:10] You know any team period really, but

[00:28:13] Especially against the defending champ in be out to whatever all that stuff. I don't know how important they didn't make them

[00:28:20] They already got two they already got two there so

[00:28:24] It's just a matter of

[00:28:26] Out

[00:28:27] There's a winner

[00:28:29] I was thinking about this yesterday like

[00:28:32] Their coach be an injured and sitting

[00:28:36] Where he's sitting

[00:28:38] Can he really feel the flow of the game the same way?

[00:28:43] Whereas like because when your coach you standing up and you walk in up down a sideline

[00:28:47] You can see different things

[00:28:49] I don't know if that's really throwing them off. I doubt him. I'm not trying to make excuses for them

[00:28:52] But like I think yeah, I was able to say he was hurt when they were up to oh

[00:28:56] Yeah, that's what yeah, but

[00:28:59] But it was no crunch time you you're really in the coach when

[00:29:03] Like things are kind of going haywire like obviously the coach gives the game plan

[00:29:07] But if you're out there just knocking down shots everybody's knocking on the shots the coaches is going to say hey keep up

[00:29:13] Keep them intensity

[00:29:15] Keep this up keep this up keep this up because it's like

[00:29:18] The shots are falling

[00:29:20] It's when the shots aren't falling and you have a guy that's why you need that's why teams it has to be

[00:29:26] Apprirony to get a great coach and keep a coach do that virtually

[00:29:31] Michael Malone when he had

[00:29:33] Yoke it's for those two years with MVP and then they got downside of the play-offs

[00:29:38] Some teams with a panic and like you know what we don't think this guy can get us over the hunt

[00:29:42] We have an MVP two years in a row and we don't make it for an playoffs

[00:29:46] But people I don't think it was ever in jeopardy but some organizations would have fired that coach

[00:29:52] Right look what happened when we were walking they fired a couple of coaches. I mean look at Phoenix right now

[00:29:57] You know, they just kids firing coaches

[00:29:59] Just brought in a boot and holzer you know five years 50 million and like while he's an upgrade from an offensive standpoint

[00:30:09] Does Phoenix going to be able to play the way that he was to play because he wants to shoot three

[00:30:13] You know Phoenix wants to be the mid-range team, you know are they gonna lose some

[00:30:19] Defense since Vogue wasn't there so you know these are these are why these teams end up this way

[00:30:25] And that's why Denver is here right now because they drafted some players

[00:30:30] They went through the ups and downs of Michael Porter's injuries

[00:30:33] You know is Aaron Gordon a number two or number three

[00:30:37] Jamal Murray can he stay healthy as Joker's defense going to be a lot of ability

[00:30:42] And they have a breeze to navigate together. They kept them together. They pay them and it paid off

[00:30:49] They paid off, you know

[00:30:50] Think about the Nixon and the Anna we talked about that. Rick Carlov championship coach team down 02

[00:30:57] You see you see the difference you see the difference tips up to oh

[00:31:02] We don't see we don't see like a coaches adjustment like I said if I have that many guys hurting

[00:31:10] I gotta get one of some rest

[00:31:13] J. LeBros is should it could an easy set out game three

[00:31:16] But he probably like we got to go balls of balls again, but if you lose games three

[00:31:21] Now he's now you need him a game for so it's like

[00:31:25] It's you know just what some of those decisions that you can make well something like the quiet thing that I brought up from the first round like make me make you play

[00:31:33] Quiet

[00:31:34] I

[00:31:35] Again I grew up in this mid-game. I grew up in two games. Oh, I grew I grew up in three because we go three

[00:31:39] Oh whatever the case may be that's best better for all

[00:31:42] Right, you know sometimes even in a short term you gotta think long term is like do I have do I have a guy that can get me

[00:31:51] What this guy? I'm gonna bench I know you don't have a guy in the New York that's gonna get you 40 points

[00:31:57] Like on his own the way jailing gets you 40

[00:32:01] But what if this guy it gives me 40 hurt some self even more by planning game three

[00:32:07] Do I have a guy in game four that can get me 40?

[00:32:10] Right, so like I miles well rest the guy. I know that can get me 40 if he's well rested

[00:32:16] And try to get everybody else to play just tough smart defense

[00:32:22] Simple offense and try to manufacture some points and try to win a game one on one the 98

[00:32:28] Check this out right so we were talking about this

[00:32:31] I know we were talking about Denver but I just want to go back for a second

[00:32:36] So you know I brought up you know the even jinsle plate 32 minutes

[00:32:41] Brunsett plate 30 Josh Bartoli play 23

[00:32:46] You know but then when I look at Indiana for example this is the team that won by 32

[00:32:52] See I can play 22

[00:32:55] Meets with play 24 miles turn to play 25 Hall of Burton 27

[00:33:00] So all five of their dudes

[00:33:04] New hard play 21 so all five of their starters play less in 20 seven

[00:33:09] late the less than

[00:33:11] The next best two players at a 32 point win

[00:33:15] Like it just it just doesn't add up but as far as Denver goes

[00:33:19] I spent Denver to come out tomorrow

[00:33:22] The same way that we're talking about how Minnesota one knows first two games it never

[00:33:26] Denver's well aware of that

[00:33:28] So so if Minnesota wins tomorrow

[00:33:32] They're going to earn it. There's not going to be no 30 point win Denver's going to come out

[00:33:37] Madhouse and ready to

[00:33:40] other rest well in the whistle again

[00:33:42] The we're gonna have to see

[00:33:44] The rest have been

[00:33:47] Not that they've determined this series

[00:33:50] But I would be lying as the person that picked Denver to win this series

[00:33:54] I would be lying if I said the rest haven't helped Denver

[00:33:58] Not saying that they're cheating or anything along those lines

[00:34:02] But the way that they call the games

[00:34:05] Has kind of neutralized some of the things that Minnesota likes to do one defense and

[00:34:10] You know, I just have to be weary. I have to acknowledge that

[00:34:15] The Celtics we're still playing around with their food tonight

[00:34:19] You know

[00:34:20] They held the one for seven point win

[00:34:22] You know

[00:34:24] Max Cruz came out five for six from three in the first half Jason's eight of 23 points in the first half

[00:34:31] you know

[00:34:33] There white finally had a bad game

[00:34:36] You know, Keras Levert finally had a good game

[00:34:39] You know and every time I see Keras Levert I just think of force gum life is like a boss a chocolate

[00:34:45] You just never know what you're gonna get out of that dude. Darius Garney

[00:34:49] He misses a lot of open threes

[00:34:52] And you know what pisses me off about this what pisses me off about this is

[00:34:58] That you know, there was no non-internetal tonight

[00:35:04] Darius Garney took 27 shots

[00:35:07] Levert took 18

[00:35:10] Struz took 12 and

[00:35:15] Mobile took 13

[00:35:18] He went eight of 13

[00:35:20] And I just don't understand why they don't involve him more because like this this is one of those games where we're talking about

[00:35:28] Where Cleveland was down by five

[00:35:30] They were down by six

[00:35:32] They kept jacking threes

[00:35:34] Boston was missing shots but guess what?

[00:35:37] Boston is better than you so they're gonna

[00:35:41] Probably in most cases hit a shot before you do

[00:35:44] So you had a chance to go to the basket get some free throws

[00:35:49] Shoot it from the mid range do something other than three people

[00:35:52] I have to play perfect to be boss and since they were

[00:35:57] I don't think boss was really pressed to

[00:36:00] You know we talk about boss and shot selection there more

[00:36:06] It could be it could be a situation where they're bored or just I think they just believe that they can make

[00:36:14] Anything happen offensively and that's how they press you defensively because they just I'm just gonna make shots

[00:36:20] We're gonna make it we're gonna make a three for you two

[00:36:23] We're gonna make our free throws

[00:36:25] They're a super composed team. There's not a guy on the team that's gonna get a technical file or anything like that

[00:36:31] They're gonna stick to the guns the coaches and I think the coaches are robot like he doesn't

[00:36:37] To ramp up even so it's like

[00:36:39] They just I think they're just so I want to say they're well coach. I think they're just well-oiled

[00:36:45] I'm like some nice show exactly what Mazuma does because like I said it games really rough

[00:36:50] Like a game the fussy ball sitting in the game they're down 12

[00:36:54] They lose that game

[00:36:56] It seems like more often than not

[00:36:59] They just lose that game you know some teams like

[00:37:02] Okay, see right now they're down eight they've been battling all game. I think there's some terrible from three

[00:37:07] But I think right now they get a three there down five

[00:37:11] Right, you know, but I mean you guys say

[00:37:15] Seventy free throws the eight

[00:37:18] It's what their their playing for their being a great yeah, they're playing they're coming downhill

[00:37:24] Dallas is trying to block everything so you're getting a lot of a lot of four well Dallas has just been

[00:37:29] abnormally hot

[00:37:31] You know to be from three at least in the first half of this game. Yeah, but yeah

[00:37:36] Looker off. Yeah, so that's what it comes out to a boss and it's like I

[00:37:41] Think they know

[00:37:43] We can beat this team

[00:37:45] The Cleveland scrappy they win this game they go back to boss and so they was today today's Monday

[00:37:52] we're looking at like

[00:37:55] Maybe Wednesday if they play the game

[00:37:58] At the latest Thursday more likely Wednesday. Yeah, I think they wrap it up in five like I said they they

[00:38:03] We're going to give you one game boss. I'm going to give you that eight for 35

[00:38:08] from three

[00:38:10] But lucky for them whoever they get in the next round

[00:38:15] You got the nicks that are just injured and you'll have in the end of that's probably

[00:38:22] Overmatched yeah, don't play defense

[00:38:25] Yeah, so

[00:38:26] I think boss and if they wrap this up in five

[00:38:30] It'll be the best thing for them because the nicks I think like I said this series you got in the Anna winning

[00:38:36] Or you had the next one

[00:38:38] That nicks at five when we made our predictions

[00:38:42] But but I'm thinking we might be going seven

[00:38:46] Wait, we're going to leave six so we're going to leave six we're going to boss boss and he's arrived his game up

[00:38:53] On Wednesday yeah, and then hope that the nicks and Indiana goes seven

[00:38:58] Just exhaust these guys even more and then come in get an eastern conference sweep

[00:39:05] Because the west is the west is going to be pretty tough too because I think wherever comes out of this

[00:39:09] You have just a physicality matchups between

[00:39:13] Denver and Dallas is going to be tough Minnesota Dallas is going to be tough

[00:39:16] I think okay seeing Denver might be the most finesse

[00:39:21] Matchup I think that's a lot of running and gun in

[00:39:25] But a yolk is just gonna just he'll

[00:39:28] He'll be the boss a lot

[00:39:30] He'll eat them alive just what his size yeah, I think that

[00:39:34] This Denver Minnesota series is basically the west of conference finals. I think they beat whoever comes out of this Dallas okay see series

[00:39:42] I think Dallas is

[00:39:45] You know Lucas still not all the way right and he's getting knocked over pretty much every four five positions getting knocked down

[00:39:52] PJ Washington has happened the series of his life right now

[00:39:56] You know

[00:39:58] How long can he maintain that

[00:40:00] You know Kyrie will get his

[00:40:03] You know when I look at Minnesota gets okay see

[00:40:08] I just think Minnesota is too big

[00:40:10] You know I think that Minnesota will just bully okay see around because chat doesn't really have any help on the front line in that way

[00:40:18] Yeah, so I'm gonna any any beef

[00:40:21] Yeah, if you will yeah, so but look at that this series

[00:40:25] What I wanted to get into or what I wanted to say was

[00:40:30] Sit Josh Giddie

[00:40:33] This man is adding nothing of value

[00:40:36] You know

[00:40:37] This is the time for Isaiah Joe the shine

[00:40:41] This is the time for case and Wallace the shine

[00:40:44] This is not I mean put get Gordon Hayward in the game. This is not the time

[00:40:49] For Josh Giddie to be trying to figure it out you know the pinnome which are goals are I

[00:40:53] Figure it out he does look he does look out a place. Yeah, you're the number one seed and right now I feel that

[00:41:02] Okay see is to rely on

[00:41:05] turnovers and

[00:41:08] Long rebounds so like so like when we look at Indiana

[00:41:12] Indiana's just playing effects like they're just going up and down to court

[00:41:17] Yeah, oh if okay see has to slow down at all

[00:41:22] They're degraded

[00:41:24] And they're so that was if Dallas when Dallas slows it down

[00:41:30] Unless okay see is just straight up knocking down shots they have no counter

[00:41:36] Yeah, and they're not knocking down shots

[00:41:38] They weren't knocking down shots in game two at home

[00:41:41] And they haven't been very efficient from three right now here again for sure

[00:41:46] Right now, I mean you're even has four points right now

[00:41:49] And they have been trying like carry hasn't really been pushing the action because guys are when guys been on

[00:41:59] They want a game where he scored nine points in this series and it wasn't because he was off

[00:42:05] You know, I mean he just went facilitator mode and got everybody else involved and tonight like I said Dallas has been

[00:42:11] Apped over the hot. I mean in this series PJ Washington's average of 22

[00:42:16] He shoot 54 from three and

[00:42:18] With okay sees lack of beef as you put it, yeah, you know he's able to play small ball for

[00:42:26] You know he could play a little five if they need to if they need to get some rest

[00:42:30] You know

[00:42:32] Gitty I brought up Gitty in game three he played a 11 minutes

[00:42:38] 11 minutes

[00:42:41] He was a minus one

[00:42:43] Then those 11 minutes

[00:42:45] There's human in on kitty right now you know and oh speaking of which I forgot to say this

[00:42:51] Back to after the Edwards, you know since we're talking about plus minus and everything

[00:42:57] Yesterday game four

[00:43:00] He played 45 minutes he sat two minutes in 40 seconds

[00:43:05] The two minutes in 40 seconds that he was off the floor

[00:43:09] Minnesota got out sport by 13 points

[00:43:14] Because them like I mean you got a guy going to live for the wealth

[00:43:18] Oh yeah that too but but yeah so okay see maybe it's time for some Aaron Wiggins

[00:43:24] You know okay see has never been here before but I think what we forget

[00:43:29] Because we talk about like

[00:43:31] You know hey this is SGA's first playoff and

[00:43:35] Jail of Williams has it played in the playoffs before well their coach has coached in the playoffs before

[00:43:41] Yeah, you know so where is like you brought up the brick car line

[00:43:45] Being an NBA champion

[00:43:47] Been around the block you know he's not gonna panic

[00:43:52] He knows what buttons the press whereas okay see is figuring all this out in real time

[00:43:58] And and that's why I picked Dallas the win this series when we made our predictions because

[00:44:05] It was the same thing as Minnesota like how the name is not about

[00:44:09] In experience from the standpoint of

[00:44:12] Oh they just simply haven't played in games with these stakes

[00:44:16] It's just that I just don't know how they react the first time they get punched in the mouth because they're used to doing the punching

[00:44:23] You know so it's that whole everybody has a plan until you get punched in the mouth

[00:44:28] And now yeah your predictions coming true because

[00:44:32] Everyone I saw it I was like Mike with the rebounds he was like the two small they can't rebound

[00:44:38] Yeah, and they did it again more if you guys get out the net than this all good like game one

[00:44:42] It was like

[00:44:44] Dallas was getting it out of the net but games two and three

[00:44:48] Spend a lot of miss shots and right game for what was the game that okay see

[00:44:54] Made me eat my words because they out rebounded Dallas by 13 in that game

[00:44:59] You know so it was like okay like some tipball some team rebounding

[00:45:04] They can make up for but that's a lot of effort and that's a lot of energy over the course of a series

[00:45:10] You know so there young

[00:45:12] So I don't think they're out of gas or anything like that you know Dallas is just a lot improved on defense

[00:45:20] You know since the trade is at

[00:45:23] You know like Gaffard has been

[00:45:26] You know a painted ass

[00:45:29] You know trying to get something is that he's out there trying to block everything

[00:45:35] Everything the

[00:45:36] Mutant is hands above the square a lot of his block attempts. He blocked his shot with his hip and game one

[00:45:44] He jumped that high for the block that it went off his hip so like he he's he's going at it

[00:45:51] All in all Matt they add him servers like you

[00:45:54] I'm doing all right is commissioner because like I said these series are shaping up and I know people feel like oh

[00:45:59] You know Jamal beret should have been suspended or this and that is really

[00:46:04] Who want to likely yet maybe you should have but it be as quite like all right first offense

[00:46:10] Do we really want to shift the balance for the defendant chance?

[00:46:13] I know

[00:46:15] They're down they're down two games are going on a real one

[00:46:18] One thing you think about yeah, you take there second best player away

[00:46:23] Like you wouldn't want to do that in any series

[00:46:28] Especially make that kind of decision. I know they made it back in 2016, but that was dream on

[00:46:33] Yeah, I was a little bit up

[00:46:35] The crazy part is like he still hadn't learned

[00:46:38] I know he still hasn't learned that lesson is like honestly you cost the championship

[00:46:43] But I was a

[00:46:45] What's it going to I personally went that when I heard he was suspended. I was like for that

[00:46:50] I thought he actually punched him in his nuts so when I saw it I was like

[00:46:54] That was it that was the point

[00:46:56] So when I saw that I came back in they were the games and we suspended

[00:46:59] I was like for that

[00:47:01] Yeah, but like I said in the same sense is your reputation

[00:47:05] Like Rashid while it's from the guys that's been in for that oh yeah, yeah, he's not playing game three no matter what the situation was

[00:47:12] So you got teams out here like Detroit and Washington

[00:47:16] We've been awful all year the Troy broke the record for most consecutive losses in the NBA

[00:47:22] I think they should have just gifted them the number one pick right then and they couldn't get it so Detroit

[00:47:27] This is their third straight year

[00:47:30] Picking fit and the draft

[00:47:33] The last two years they had the worst record in the league and

[00:47:36] Somehow all the way from the tip highest odds

[00:47:43] Atlanta has come through and got the number one draft it

[00:47:50] That now that was crazy 3% chance

[00:47:54] They gave through they got it

[00:47:56] Now they got options

[00:47:58] You know as a time to rule trade young as a time to move to John T. Mary is a time to move to a young and the John T. Mary

[00:48:06] The problem is and this we talked about this from NBA franchises a lot

[00:48:11] They're gonna make them they're gonna make a drastic mistake. They're gonna try to do too much because they have the number one pick

[00:48:19] It said a week ago and a week draft they're gonna try to either demand too much

[00:48:24] They're gonna put multiple guys on a trading block and then it's gonna ruin

[00:48:30] However this guy feels about the team and everything else like how remember when they traded

[00:48:36] When the latest try to trade for Chris Paul and Lamar older was on a block and then it can't so the trade

[00:48:41] They had to go back to the team yeah, he was like now they that's when they traded them to the clippers

[00:48:45] They're like just

[00:48:47] Let's just just go

[00:48:49] Just because

[00:48:51] Never gonna be recover from you know like the shock of being traded after you know especially if they want championship

[00:49:00] It's I don't know how Detroit didn't get the number one pick

[00:49:04] But sometimes it's you got like putting on yourself to as an organization like listen

[00:49:10] We not making it

[00:49:12] Let's just lose as many games as we can demonstrate well what I'm wondering though. Is it from the tree?

[00:49:20] Do I really want to add another draft pit?

[00:49:24] Oh these want to trade five for some players?

[00:49:27] Yeah, I mean you already got Kate County hand you got Jayden Ivy you have Jim and Dhamran

[00:49:33] You know so at the very least you know at least two of those dudes

[00:49:37] Should be part of your core as you go through your rebuild so they so three years from now

[00:49:44] At least two of those three do should be your marry and you'll get your whatever and like

[00:49:49] You know whatever you want to call it and you know they got James wise men

[00:49:53] That they're still trying to figure out if he's an NBA player or not

[00:49:57] You know so so you have youth all ready

[00:50:01] You know and I don't know what adding another rookie is gonna do for you

[00:50:08] Especially when you spit all the money to bring money Williams

[00:50:13] 80 like it was 72 million

[00:50:15] Yeah, here's something crazy like that. Yeah, so like why

[00:50:20] In my mind just as two five as I said and think about this why would you bring in the fifth best

[00:50:27] Player again in a week class

[00:50:29] in a week class

[00:50:32] I mean

[00:50:33] Most of them are for a few of them are foreign

[00:50:36] Yeah, I think the first we fix is going to be

[00:50:39] The fridge players sorry and a risotto

[00:50:42] Resotto I think those are going to be the two top pits

[00:50:46] I got this is CBS that come

[00:50:50] They guess the fine castles a

[00:50:53] Second press pick Alex saw

[00:50:55] The center out of France is like the number one press pick and I think he's been them one for a while

[00:51:00] Was it him or another guy was it was him?

[00:51:05] Resotchia have basically

[00:51:08] Blocked one two throughout the year

[00:51:11] Mathias Bouselis was one at one point

[00:51:16] You know but he's fallen off since you know, but it depends on what what you want to do if you're Atlanta you know

[00:51:24] You know like I think the draft here from me starts at number three

[00:51:29] You know because I look at Houston the same way that I do Detroit from the standpoint of

[00:51:35] You went out and got your van vly you went out and got Dylan Brooks

[00:51:39] You know, you still have jell and green you got to make up your mind if you're going to pay him or not

[00:51:44] You got say gold you got jabari Smith

[00:51:48] I don't know you think I've been Tom said last year

[00:51:51] I don't know if you have the room to get another room

[00:51:54] Do you package jailing green and number three pick and go get a name?

[00:52:01] Well, I know I know throughout the course of this season the rumor that I had hurt the most

[00:52:07] Was that Houston really wanted macale bridges and

[00:52:11] So they were looking at some form of jailing green and ascillary parts

[00:52:18] For macale bridges maybe you like I think it was even three of orange draft picks

[00:52:23] For macale bridges so if that's still not even up jailing green and number three pick from macale bridges now

[00:52:28] After the year ahead Brooklyn probably not yeah, you know probably not but I just don't know

[00:52:36] Like so so a couple of mock drafts that I've seen have them picking up green shepherd out of Kentucky

[00:52:44] So as I look as I think about this out loud you know like I said you got family

[00:52:50] I'm in Thompson is your big point guard that you probably want to find more minutes for

[00:52:55] You got jailing green who

[00:52:59] Like isn't a point guard, but like he's not necessarily like you know Kobe Bryant size or something

[00:53:06] You know so like yeah, so you know where do you fit another guard first of all?

[00:53:11] So you brought in Dylan Brooks you got your body Smith you got Tari E. Sinoff the bench

[00:53:17] Like you might as well like for me I'm like you might as well just for fit your pick

[00:53:22] It just grow your lecture team grow another season because I mean they finished remember right at the beginning of April

[00:53:29] They were on gold estates heels for that play in spot

[00:53:33] Houston yeah, yeah, they had a good run but it's like

[00:53:37] they are in that that that weird

[00:53:40] that weird space where

[00:53:44] There is a there's a smart move to make

[00:53:49] and then

[00:53:51] any other decision could be potentially catastrophic and I just have a feeling that

[00:53:57] They're unlikely to make this smart move

[00:54:00] I think a lot of teams are gonna look at and foot and and make themselves fall in love with a certain player because they have a certain pick

[00:54:07] Right instead of like the like Detroit as their examples like Detroit's gonna be like you know what

[00:54:13] What does that look at yourself first?

[00:54:15] He's so frustrated was that file on Luke or Gitty?

[00:54:22] I think it has to be on Gitty doesn't it?

[00:54:25] No, he has to ball in his hand

[00:54:29] Let me watch it you know I thought he elbow them they did he ran into his back oh no that's what they're gonna be on Luke

[00:54:36] They put they call it don't getty. I know super star call right

[00:54:41] You run in the me when I'm trying to send the screen and I get the file so that might be a challenge where

[00:54:46] you play if it wasn't the third quarter

[00:54:49] Yeah, so so then you know what are you doing here the spurs you know you got number four number eight

[00:54:55] You know is this a tray young move do you trade up?

[00:54:59] To get trade young

[00:55:02] You know and you know I guess I don't know what you what else should we get but get trade young

[00:55:08] I'm sorry

[00:55:10] So you get you give them eight for trade young or you can before any

[00:55:15] That's tough. I don't know like I think I think it'll probably take four

[00:55:21] Like that self should be good. It goes straight up just give more for trade young. Yeah

[00:55:29] You know wash to still needs a head coach

[00:55:32] You know we're gonna see if they're gonna hire the interim or not look look at this travel

[00:55:36] I think you might be a little bit behind me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's that?

[00:55:42] That's the velvet key level right there did you see I've been in something so yeah and they didn't even call it

[00:55:49] You know but yeah washed it is the design on a coach

[00:55:54] You know Charlotte has hired their coach, but is the time

[00:55:59] I've asked this every year and it's only injury related

[00:56:03] Is it time to come off lamentable

[00:56:08] I don't think you're gonna

[00:56:10] I don't think you're looking

[00:56:12] I don't think you're gonna bring miles bridges back

[00:56:14] You know anything, but is it time to

[00:56:17] For Charlotte to just purge start over?

[00:56:20] Yeah, or I mean, I don't know if you need to just rip down the whole thing because they are super young

[00:56:26] Who are you gonna move the mellow ball to?

[00:56:29] I don't know what I'm thinking. I don't know but what I'm thinking is if you can move the mellow

[00:56:35] Maybe you grab Dilly ham right there

[00:56:38] To be your point guard of the future or stuff on the pencil

[00:56:42] I think the clip I think the clip was moving to that new building I'm pretty sure they will love an LA kid

[00:56:48] I don't know what they could do to them, but I think you call Steve Bomber and see was

[00:56:53] See what he's talking about see what he's trying to do. I know they really have a pick, but maybe get some some future draft capital maybe you get

[00:57:01] You know a couple of their role players you just you come off the mellow and you get a couple of guys kind of fill out your roster

[00:57:08] If you're Memphis, do you trade number nine

[00:57:12] Because you're only up there because of Josh suspension and then his injury

[00:57:18] I say you that that's one of those situations where like kind of having an injury did I go in

[00:57:25] Having the injury bug

[00:57:28] But you you take the best player right there and you add them to your health. Yeah, I think I think looking at it

[00:57:34] I'll take Cody Williams on a Colorado right there

[00:57:37] I think that's the play but I wouldn't be shocked to see Memphis move it

[00:57:44] What Chicago trying to do?

[00:57:46] You know the roses of free agent

[00:57:49] Sounds like he wants to come back. They got to figure out Levine and if they can move him finally

[00:57:54] I know Detroit was interested at the trade deadline before he or before the trade deadline when you got hurt

[00:58:01] You got okay see up there 12 then I'm sure we love to trade that pick

[00:58:06] And maybe get a rebounder you said Cody Williams I had a Colorado yeah

[00:58:12] 68 190 that's skinny. I know but like at this limb when I look at Memphis's situation right you know you got jaw

[00:58:21] You got Marcus smart

[00:58:24] Luke Kinar is a free agent

[00:58:27] Your front court you got Brandon Clark Jared Jackson Jr

[00:58:32] You need a three probably you need somebody

[00:58:36] Because you guys I hear Williams right now so you probably need a three

[00:58:42] If you are gonna keep that pick

[00:58:46] You know the whole you know he could put all the weight on yes

[00:58:51] Yo, they did it again. Did they reverse this fall?

[00:58:55] I'm so sick of it. I'm so sick of these challenges

[00:58:58] I'm making his call in real time he is bumping him how you gonna review it and slow motion and change the calls like it just

[00:59:06] is blowing my mind that they're letting

[00:59:09] That they're letting it impact the game this much right

[00:59:14] Especially at this point in the game too like if this was the fourth quarter maybe you're like

[00:59:19] Yo, let's make sure we get it right or whatever like you could try to justify it but at this point in the game

[00:59:25] Wow

[00:59:28] You know so you know you got Utah pick it number 10

[00:59:32] Sacramento's up that 13 you know Malik monk is a free agent and probably on his way out of there

[00:59:40] So you know maybe Sacramento gets his replacement

[00:59:45] But if I'm Washington you know since I'm a Washington fan

[00:59:50] I'm looking at one of three players. I'm looking at Steph Castle

[00:59:55] Was Resache and Donna been clicking those are the three that I'm looking at you know

[01:00:03] It just depends on what else Washington wants to do you know they still have Jordan pool

[01:00:08] 4 dozen 3 years on the contract still that

[01:00:12] There's basketball player

[01:00:14] I think he came on towards the end of the season

[01:00:17] You know he he looked a lot better the last 20 or 30 games of the season

[01:00:23] I just don't know like what the plan is going forward with him because personally personality wise

[01:00:31] All it takes is for him to get upset and

[01:00:34] You're in a file game loses streak just because of his mind. Yeah, you know

[01:00:40] But you know so I don't know but I just think it's interesting that Atlanta

[01:00:46] The draft lottery from the number 10 spot

[01:00:51] Yeah, that's that's

[01:00:54] That's not very common

[01:00:56] Yeah, they're they're Portland got two picks you know they got seven and 14

[01:01:03] So maybe they could be a spot for Donna that clicking it but I think he's going to fall that far so

[01:01:08] You know that thing just want to move forward with the Andre 8 yeah, we watch the draft last year

[01:01:13] Just like I say just feels like these teams are just

[01:01:16] It's the same teams draft and

[01:01:19] And a different order to the top eat every single year and it's like I think people just kind of given up

[01:01:27] On the development aspect come on, Gettie

[01:01:31] Who that was awful?

[01:01:34] So I think people just kind of

[01:01:36] Gonna use all their trade draft capital to trade it to try to land where these free ages

[01:01:42] Try to do a sign it I think someone's gonna try to do a sign in trade and get Paul George

[01:01:47] One is like Paul George is in player you need

[01:01:51] Like he might be the player keeps you relevant. I don't know what his contracts look like as far as like trade clauses

[01:01:56] I think a lot of people are going to make almost hit make them a stake

[01:01:59] I think they're gonna go for the pro that's already been in league a few years

[01:02:04] Simply because the last few years hasn't really shown

[01:02:08] That the players you get from the glee

[01:02:11] internationally or college have really come in and made a real splash a lot of new hero

[01:02:18] A lot of media is definitely pushing the Paul George to Philadelphia thing

[01:02:24] And they can just do that straight up. They can just offer a money right right like they don't have to move any pieces

[01:02:29] Right like to me that makes sense because that's a ready-made team

[01:02:35] And they're a veteran they're a veteran team

[01:02:38] They're probably gonna lose to bias Harris is probably gonna be on the minimum contract so where maybe they could 12 me a dollar a year

[01:02:45] Yeah, we're actually not his way back to Detroit and I don't know if that works if I'm Detroit because I'm like

[01:02:53] I don't know what I have with these young guys

[01:02:56] Like you got a pick like a lane and I'm like a sad thing

[01:03:01] Somebody one of these teams between

[01:03:03] Because we talked about San Antonio was like how was San Antonio this bad with

[01:03:11] The generational talent with the talent on there especially what he can do like what he could do defensively

[01:03:17] He's like why wasn't that

[01:03:19] Why wasn't a plan built around him be your defensive anchor?

[01:03:25] It just felt like and if we watched a lot of those games early on is like he was cut through the paint and you like get the balls like pop

[01:03:31] What do you like what are you guys going over and practice but I got a

[01:03:35] Got that big cut cut into the lane just sort of all of high

[01:03:40] So do you think that a team like Phoenix

[01:03:46] There at 22

[01:03:49] Do you think they could possibly trade up somewhere and truck because they're not they're not gonna be able to get a free agent

[01:03:54] They're not gonna be able to

[01:03:56] Trade be all or anything like that so

[01:03:59] Because bills got the no trade class. Yeah, so like if you're like Felix that direct to move up

[01:04:07] Well they do have the ambitious owner

[01:04:10] So I imagine that he's gonna be on the phone but a good GM

[01:04:16] Like a then-each somebody like that when it was kind of GMs

[01:04:21] They're gonna be what it's probably milk a little bit more out of him

[01:04:25] Because he's probably in position to make a desperate move like they fired the coach which was probably a bad move

[01:04:33] So I can see him taking an offer for

[01:04:37] 22 and they're like oh you want you want to get to you want to get to four with San Antonio

[01:04:44] All right

[01:04:45] Give us 22 and Kevin to rank

[01:04:48] I'm definitely interested

[01:04:50] 22 in Devon Booker like and maybe he feels like you know what if I get the four

[01:04:55] I can get one of the generational guys

[01:04:57] Or blah and like he takes that deal. I think because I think he really wants to win

[01:05:02] Because he said that his press conference

[01:05:05] He's like you know 26 out of 2019 with trade there roster for ours. I'm like, right

[01:05:10] That's good. I'm definitely interested in 15 16

[01:05:13] That's Miami and Philadelphia respectively

[01:05:17] So you know we'll see what happens there and maybe that ends up as a part of a Paul George trade or signage rate

[01:05:25] And so as I go down to solicit the leaders at 17

[01:05:29] You know, so what are they going to do? Ronnie James with the 40 and a half inch vertical

[01:05:36] But I'll done by my guy reach shepherd

[01:05:39] You know 42 inch vertical

[01:05:42] The nicks are at 24 and 25

[01:05:46] You know, so get some youth get some youth in there get some young bodies

[01:05:50] Potatoes

[01:05:54] You know, Washington back at 26 again. So that's the one thing that I wanted to get off on this was

[01:06:01] my team is so bad

[01:06:04] That they can't even win the ping pong match up

[01:06:09] The choice of

[01:06:11] Even win the ping pong match up

[01:06:14] At least Washington got the two

[01:06:16] San Antonio being at like four and

[01:06:21] eight

[01:06:24] I think they have an opportunity to really make some moves

[01:06:27] But for the most part of a lot of these teams

[01:06:30] They'll be right back in the top five top eight again next year

[01:06:34] Yeah, it's like like these just young talent. It's you're not we don't see it

[01:06:39] You don't see it against real

[01:06:41] the NBA level defense and I'm looking at somebody's guys this guy's protected to be another one pick an NBA right

[01:06:48] center 7212117

[01:06:52] Center

[01:06:54] Ever's 9.7 points full point four revails

[01:06:59] Like how many minutes are they planned overseas to where you're not getting double the

[01:07:02] Jepoints and revails a 7 foot one

[01:07:04] Shout out to my guy

[01:07:06] Cool a volley you know who was Victor's teammate last year

[01:07:11] Talking about how he's got the keys and the secrets to stop Pascal Ciaq and

[01:07:17] How he's the most overrated superstar to NBA like first of all I need to know Ciaq

[01:07:22] Was a superstar but you know Sam Rumble young man Rumble

[01:07:27] Yeah, you know, but yeah, I mean his dude is like

[01:07:30] Like I mean just going off top it's like what's what's this dude click a pillow

[01:07:37] Sorry, nice well, what not no, it's really like player wise like you know

[01:07:43] He's a defender more than he is from what I was

[01:07:46] A reading the scouting reports and everything he's more of a defender than he is like an offensive sport

[01:07:51] So you aren't getting

[01:07:53] Wouldn't be part two or you know the guy that you're just going to plug in

[01:07:58] And he's gonna you don't come in with I don't know 21 and nine

[01:08:03] You know like you might be lucky to get any 19

[01:08:07] 16 and 7 out of them

[01:08:11] You know so yeah, I'm at land. I'm definitely trying to get out of that spot potentially unless you think he's your guy

[01:08:19] You know this is where I'm calling to see who was triumphant

[01:08:22] Yeah, it's not even any if you note on them on CBS

[01:08:26] Well, if that's why I like looking at the player's interference like

[01:08:30] He's been a compared to Jared Jackson Jr. So, you know if you think he has that type of potential

[01:08:36] There may be that's worth the number one draft paper but a resathe is being compared to Harrison Barnes

[01:08:45] Reach shepherd is being compared to current high-break

[01:08:49] You know the cola to pick as being compared to orange dryage

[01:08:54] And people have said that they're telling me how the NBA has evolved

[01:09:00] It's like you get role players going and

[01:09:04] Your top five and then they get into the league and they literally don't

[01:09:10] They don't perform like top five picks right I hate when he's who's flail it

[01:09:15] Yeah, I got five

[01:09:17] Like I don't know my look up might be trying

[01:09:21] Out due to bead you know as far as like who's gonna end up on the floor more

[01:09:26] That six foot a you should amount of for that much

[01:09:29] Yeah, you know, but okay, so you still fight you gotta get the young bulls credit. You know like

[01:09:35] They're missing everything at their realm though

[01:09:38] They should have a three point lead in this quarter right now, but they just keep blowing

[01:09:43] shots at the rim because that was isn't playing great

[01:09:47] I mean, oh, they needed 76 yeah, no they were just hitting three third earlier like Dallas just had a quarter where they were really hot

[01:09:54] Both teams came out holding the third quarter and you know back to my point look at Lucas six for 17 right now

[01:10:02] You know like I said he's gonna score you can't stop a but

[01:10:06] You just gotta make it difficult make it any efficient

[01:10:10] And you give yourself a chance now is up to okay see

[01:10:14] To make timely shots as we come down the stretch

[01:10:17] I think they just keep looking for the three and

[01:10:21] And SGA is like the guy shooting the mid range and it's just

[01:10:26] Know as in like Dallas is standing in the paint they're literally standing around the paint there's shooting okay

[01:10:32] C shoot 34% right now, you know

[01:10:36] You know SGA's got 24 on 21 shots

[01:10:41] And nobody else is really coming with them like doorcast 14 but he's three of 11

[01:10:47] So you know it's just a whole lot of I mean props to Dallas is defense

[01:10:54] Yeah

[01:10:55] But we got shit she checks only taking seven field those yeah, he's five or seven

[01:11:01] You know it's like see it that's what I'm saying like these teams they play so fast

[01:11:06] They shoot all these threes so guys like chatting evident. Probably

[01:11:12] Don't necessarily get established the way that they should

[01:11:16] You know like

[01:11:18] Oh, here we go

[01:11:20] PJ watch and I think just scream like a crazy person do it with his current top here

[01:11:25] You don't say like you'll be trying to fight them character's hot dudes

[01:11:31] Like I don't know what he's doing he's doing his Lex Luger poses

[01:11:38] Yes, it's you know Lucas. You know you just he literally shoved him with his left arm

[01:11:49] That's what that's what I like I was looking at Tate on earlier Tate on kept doing that and getting away with it and

[01:11:56] They were calling these files and I was just like

[01:11:59] Those are superstars calls. I don't know like what is
