Starting point is 00:02:57 We're here to keep you updated with everything happening in sports, sport, and particularly basketball. I'm the host. My name is DJ Wells. my esteemed co-host to my left and right. I got B.Him, Bishop Hendricks. I got my dog, T. How y'all doing this morning, fellas? Chilling. Chilling, bro. Man, it's a good day in sports.
Starting point is 00:03:11 That's a whole lot of basketball. Everybody in the league got to it last night. Also, college basketball kicked off, but first things first, Monday night football. The Chiefs stayed undefeated last night in OT, 30-24 against the Bucs. You know what I'm saying? Pat Mahomes doing what Pat Mahomes does. Three tuts, almost 300 yards.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Travis Kelsey woke up. Remember, he could play tight end at a high level. Got 100 yards yesterday. And Deshaun Hopkins, come on, man. My favorite receiver. 86. Two TDs. And he went crazy in the second quarter.
Starting point is 00:03:39 He had two back-to-back catches, man. That was crazy. Yeah, my boy DeAndre Special. I called him DeSean. Excuse me, DeAndre. Yeah, we got him. We be butchering people. We didn't say his name.
Starting point is 00:03:50 We destroyed names. We just said Buddy. Look, my kid was on already. So I called this out on a black man yesterday. I'm out of my car. Hey, that was hot. Boy, that was DMing me. Stay away from football.
Starting point is 00:04:00 Y'all don't know shit about football. I said you damn right. I don't give a fuck about no football. Nah, shout out to DeHop, though. Shout out to DeHop, man. It's crazy. Hey, man, listen. When you talk about your crash out parlays,
Starting point is 00:04:12 just make sure you put Pat Mahomes on there. Nah, for sure. Because Pat Mahomes don't lose. Nah, he one of them, bro. He been one of them, but for them to kick everybody's ass, bro, like this, bro, bro every year it's getting crazy and what's so crazy is they're not even like i mean of course they're gonna blow people out but they're having these games where it's coming down to the wire and they're just like all right it's time to
Starting point is 00:04:32 win yeah that's cool too but i'm saying like how do they just keep acquiring pieces like this bro like where's david stern bro i mean to be realistic all they always talk about how david stern is in basketball i'm just gonna be when y'all talk about how – David Stern is in basketball. I'm just going to be – when y'all talk football, I'm just going to correct it. No, no, no. No, I'm saying, though, you know how David Stern throws. I know David Stern. I know everybody.
Starting point is 00:04:51 Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'm going to correct everything they say wrong about football. No, clearly. The Chiefs don't even get no crazy free agents, though. They always talk about the people leaving and he still wins. So that's the crazy part. They receive him for it. They always be ass.
Starting point is 00:05:03 Yeah, out of nowhere. But he went and got a chip with Juju, bro. I know, but they re-up with everybody though, bro. They lying to everybody. So I don't know. I just feel like they cheating, bro. The defense is amazing every year. And also, I mean, you got Pat Mahomes. You can put him out there with four corpses and he's going to make it work.
Starting point is 00:05:17 You know what's crazy about them, though? At one point of time, when they first was winning, their defense was kind of trash. Pat Mahomes was carrying it. Now it's kind of switched as he got a little older. Now the defense is carrying it. It's kind of crazy how they worked that out. But you know, I mean, that's kind of how it's supposed to work, though. Ideally in the situations, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:33 when you got a younger quarterback on run, you're supposed to spend that money on the defense. And as he gets older, he's already ready. You can kind of get that balance. But I mean, they got a tradition of winning at this point. They just know how to win. It's like, when you got we're going to transition to college basketball, of course, on this show. But it's like when you got those older players that have been there
Starting point is 00:05:51 and they just know what to do at that time, that's kind of how Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs are. For sure. That's like I was watching UConn game yesterday. Paige Buckers, UConn, obviously got the dub. She had 27. But it's just like her maturity level, I know they ain't playing the top tier teams yet,
Starting point is 00:06:04 but she's going to kill this year just the fact that like you said she knows how to win she's been there and pat mahomes ain't no difference man they're gonna they're gonna go crazy i don't know if they're gonna get past the ravens this year i think that'd be a fire afc championship if we get that but listen man the chiefs gonna win every time like you said college basketball we talked about yesterday duke beat Maine yesterday. Cooper flag debut. How y'all feel about it? Told y'all, bro. Stupid ass game. Were they supposed to play a conference game the first game of the season, man? No, just play
Starting point is 00:06:31 somebody better, bro. They played Bain at Duke. So it kind of didn't benefit Maine. Maine didn't make no money. Yes, they did. They got paid for that game. They most definitely paid. I'm talking about they would never play a camera indoor stadium. They would have made more, bro, if they played at Maine. At least let Cooper go home
Starting point is 00:06:48 and play in front of his people because he's never coming back to Maine again. So, that would have been a good farewell tour for him. Yeah, never coming back. No, they played him at Duke, bro. That was a pointless game. I told y'all. 30 feet still. Trash,
Starting point is 00:07:04 bro. That's crazy. Listen, man. Him and Con were crazy yesterday. Cooper had a move. We jabs. They cut to the middle. I'm like, yeah, it's going to be a long season for people. And Duke is solid all the way around. They not just live. I mean, those two obviously stood out yesterday, but they're going to be a tough team to deal with for sure this year. Nah, for sure. I see them moving up past
Starting point is 00:07:20 seven at the end of the year. Most definitely, man. Also, Gonzaga, we talked about it yesterday, played Baylor. Don't talk about that older team, bro. Belt to ass. 101-63. Yeah, they beat the hell out of them. Why turn that game off so fast? Yeah, bro, they could beat them by 50-60
Starting point is 00:07:36 points for real, bro. It was wicked. That season team, bro. Gonzaga season all the way around. Yeah, that's just what they do at this point, man. They ain't necessarily got over right there yet, but listen, man. Every year, they are a team that they ain't going to go to fight for, bro, no matter what.
Starting point is 00:07:53 They always got solid role players who know how to play. They all be juniors and seniors. But they all can play, for sure. Also, Ohio State took care of Texas yesterday, 80-72. I didn't get too much of that game. But Ohio State going to be a fortunate Big Ten this year. I think they're going to be a really, really solid team. They got some cool transfers.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Meechie Johnson came back. A couple other guys that can play. Real nice. I mean, surprise Texas because Texas got a young. Trey Johnson on their team is nasty, bro. I was watching the game. He get buckets. He was putting it watching the game. He get buckets. He was putting it up, but he definitely get buckets.
Starting point is 00:08:26 He probably going to be a one-and-done prospect, probably a top-ten pick. So they had a good team. Texas was playing hard, but Ohio State just a seasoned team. Got a lot of transfers and other players. Most definitely. Switching over to the women's, man. Number three, USC beat Ole Miss 68-66, Juju 27-10.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Couple assists, couple blocks. Man, she was killing yesterday. Yeah, she was doing it all around the court. They only got three people that shoot on that USC team. It's going to be interesting to see how they work out for the rest of the year. I mean, they all talented, but I don't see them making too much noise. Not the way they play. It's kind of a weird way they play.
Starting point is 00:09:03 It's like you shoot, I shoot, she shoot. It the way they play. It's kind of a weird way they play. It's like, you shoot, I shoot, she shoot. It's all the gym. Yeah, for sure. When she transferred there, you know, when Fran transferred there, it was the whole,
Starting point is 00:09:11 it was like, okay, we have a projected top five lottery WNBA player with Juju. Yeah. I mean, we saw how it was last year. Juju shot the ball all by herself.
Starting point is 00:09:18 And now that she's here, I guess maybe it's that little bit better if it's just three instead of one. I don't know. I didn't like how it was going. But looking the best last night. Nah, I wouldn't. I wouldn't of one? I don't know. I ain't like how it was going. But looking the best last night? Nah, I wasn't.
Starting point is 00:09:27 I wasn't so. I don't want to skip over that, though. We missed the UCF beating Texas A&M yesterday. Oh, that's a big one. Yeah, that was a big one. Mike Williams. Is he on the team? Yeah, niggas out of pocket.
Starting point is 00:09:39 I told y'all. What you tell us? Mikey Williams will be a first-round pick this year. He didn't even play. Don't matter. Listen, listen. They starting off winning now. They gonna make the tournament when he gets in the game. Tournament time.
Starting point is 00:09:55 He's not even. He's gonna play this year. You and Mook said he's not gonna play. He's not gonna come off the bench when he comes back, bro. He gonna average 18 to 20 this year. They're not rocking with him. Why ain't they going to play him? Bro, he's not good. Hey, bro.

Starting point is 00:11:41 Can they get to the college football playoff? I guess. I don't know if they're going to go undefeated. They're having a T-Bowl season, bro. It's smooth. All right, now, the T-Bowl season will be if they beat Ohio State. If they beat Ohio State, then they're basically almost guaranteed to get in there unless they just, like, spill it at the season.

Starting point is 00:12:50 NBA recap, man. Warriors versus the Wizards yesterday. 1-25, 1-12. Steph had 24-12, but that did not matter. The real game yesterday was Jordan Poole
Starting point is 00:12:59 versus Draymond Green. Yep. Hilarious, bro. And Dray was hooping yesterday, too. He did. Do what Dray had, like 18-5ilarious, bro. And Dray was hooping yesterday, too. He did. Do what Dray had, like 18 and 5 or something like that. He had him on a post, tried to hit him with the elbow.
Starting point is 00:13:10 The sweet dude. Oh, bro. I see what you was doing, Draymond. But, shit. We chill out. But, shout out to him, though. Even after the game, giving him a Jordan Pool of compliments, telling him how he's playing better and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Draymond, he maturing. Obviously, he always been a seasoned vet, but he's starting to play the game on a different side now. I was cracking up yesterday and them pointing at each other. When JP hit that three and pointed at him, that was hilarious. I told y'all, I went out of foolery. But then he pointed at him with Steph at that. I was like, they childish, but I fuck with that.
Starting point is 00:13:38 Nah, the Warriors kicked their ass, though. I be hating on the Warriors. They a good team. Come on, man. They 6-1. I don't know what more you want. A lot of people catch their faves after the season, man. I don on the Warriors dead, good team. Come on, man. They 6-1. I don't know what more you want. A lot of people catch a phase at the end of the season, man.
Starting point is 00:13:48 I don't know why you... Good team. I've seen one... Draymond, I told you in Vegas, baby. Playing the trip. Nah. When they started to connect,
Starting point is 00:13:56 like, gelling a little bit on the first couple of games, I was like, ah, the Warriors about to be good this year. And Trace looked good with them. Perfect fit for that team. Like we said,
Starting point is 00:14:04 we know it's early in the season, but you know, for them to win early in the season without Steph, that means something for sure. Yeah. Man, yesterday, your Lakers, man, took that L yesterday against the Pistons. Bruh, I should start doing the bets. I told y'all. No, you shouldn't. 115-103, Jaden Ivey went
Starting point is 00:14:19 crazy. Breakout game, 26 for my boy. Okay, Kurt Franklin, 26. He called him Stomp. That's crazy. K had the trippy dub. 17-11-11. AD's killing leading the league in points right now. 37-9. Broad 20-11.
Starting point is 00:14:33 Still wasn't enough, man. The Pistons got three wins, man. I told you they're better than the Pistons, but it might get spooky for the Lakers right now because AD dealing with a foot injury day to day. might not be looking good for him. Boy, tender, boy. Listen,
Starting point is 00:14:49 hopefully just a couple, you know what I'm saying, a couple games missed. You know, last year he did really well with that, hoping to piggyback on that, but he's killing so far this year. But the Pistons, man,
Starting point is 00:14:56 they've been looking a little bit better. I told y'all. I, yeah, I could go to hell with that. See, the thing about the Pistons, even though
Starting point is 00:15:04 we said they're a young team, they're really not that young, though. Like, hell with that. See, the thing about the Pistons, even though we say they're a young team, they're really not that young, though. Like, they start Tobias Harris. They got Tim Hardaway. They all been in the league for a minute, but they got a good combination of, like, K. Cunningham is coming into his own. Killing.
Starting point is 00:15:16 J.I. Ivy is cool. But then you use Jalen Duran as a young center, but he good, though. He is good. But I think Tobias Harris and Tim Hardaway, like, getting them even killing, like Malik Beasley coming is good. But I think Tobias Harris and Tim Hardaway, like, getting them an even kill, unlike Malik Beasley coming off the bench.
Starting point is 00:15:28 I don't think Detroit that sad. I mean, it's just a tough, tough start, but I think they figuring it out a little bit. Okay. Hey, got to respect
Starting point is 00:15:35 they got a solid I'm sure they better than the Bucs right now. Woo! Everybody is right now. That's crazy. Celtics, man, took care of business
Starting point is 00:15:44 yesterday. Trade. Blowout. 30 ball. 123-93 man. Took care of business yesterday. Trade. Blow out. 30 ball. 123-93. I'm starting to hear now. It's time to trade, trade young. Oh, now you want to start the room.
Starting point is 00:15:52 No, I'm not saying it like that. Let's get to that. I'm not saying it like I don't like him. Because he's about to get Will Sewell-less. I ain't saying it like I don't like him. For sure. But obviously, it ain't that. We suck.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Blow the team up, bro. It's time to blow it up. Go young. We need to trade him to San Antonio. All right? We need to get, what's the young boy?
Starting point is 00:16:15 Castle. Spine Castle. Mm-hmm. A couple other young pieces and some first rounders. Y'all hand let Trey go out there and be with Wimby.
Starting point is 00:16:24 And let's stop wasting everybody's time because we're done. That's crazy. Drew Holiday got people rethinking about where they're going to live. If he would have killed last night, we would have this conversation. He saw Drew Holiday and Derrick White and he had to go. I'm always had that feeling, bro. Get him out of there now while he's still ready, bro. I told y'all I'm free Trey Young.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Y'all told me I was out of pocket. Nah, I'm sleeping. Yeah, I thought about it. We got to get Cooper. So, like, Cooper or Ace Bailey or whatever. Let's get rid of Trey Young. Get these first-round picks. Get these first-round picks.
Starting point is 00:16:52 Or even Dylan Harper. We can take him. Yeah. Let's just get. On everything. Move on from Trey. Get Trey out to San Antonio. Get Stephon Castle.
Starting point is 00:17:03 A couple picks. They got some other young players we can rock with. Man, that's crazy. One, two, six ass whooping. Got the whole organization in shambles. I was just seeing it. I was disappointed. It's nasty.
Starting point is 00:17:15 You know what I mean? I got people texting me at halftime. This team is a disaster. They ain't been the same since you. All right, who next? I guess they want you back in the 10-day. RET. They went to the Eastern Conference Finals.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Since he left. But what we got? Hey, he's paid, man. JT had 26 at halftime. He was murdering yesterday. The headband game, that's hilarious. Listen, man, the best game yesterday was the Nets versus the Grizz paid, man. JT had 26 at halftime. He was murdering yesterday. The headband game, that's hilarious. Listen, man, the best game yesterday was the Nets versus the Grizzlies, man. Close, close game.
Starting point is 00:17:50 106-104. Nets got the edge. Zach Eady was murdering yesterday. 25-11, double-double healthy. Jaw 25. And he had two 360s. You're not supposed to have one of those in the game, but the fact that he did that twice in the game is so disrespectful.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Yeah, he played too much. They got it done, bro. Shout out to the Nets, though. My boy, he didn't get 40. I'm sorry. I know I had to crash out parlay on my boy. Cam Thomas had 13. Be him.
Starting point is 00:18:15 What did y'all take him at? 40 yesterday. Cam, I know you got some cutty in Memphis last night. He was in Brooklyn. He was in Brooklyn. He was in Brooklyn? Yeah. in Brooklyn. It was in Brooklyn? Yeah. Well, you got some
Starting point is 00:18:27 some coochie from a Memphis slider. You know what I mean? So we'll be back at 40 today's game though, for sure. Cam Johnson had 20 yesterday. He held it down for the Cams.
Starting point is 00:18:37 You are crazy. Hey, man, that was a good game yesterday. Like, I'm sure a lot of people did not watch that game, but that was a really good basketball game yesterday. A lot of people were complaining about their product
Starting point is 00:18:45 or what's going on right now, but these lower market teams, quote-unquote, have been putting solid basketball together for sure. I just can't, man. Dennis Schroeder having a really, really good year. Listen, you got to respect it, bro. Yeah. And I know he had a situation where, you know,
Starting point is 00:18:58 he maybe passed on the money, people looked at him differently, but since then, even with the Lakers and other situations, he's produced wherever he's been. He's playing really, really well. It's going to be a big payday for him, I'm sure. Probably the last year of his deal.
Starting point is 00:19:10 He's going to get some money, man. He solidified himself as a starting PG, for sure. How old is he? Probably 30, maybe. If that. Yeah, I was going to say, he's got to get paid, man.
Starting point is 00:19:21 31? Yeah, for sure. Also, we talked about the Cam Thomas situation and him not getting the extension. I mean, that may work out in his favor. I know he didn't have the best game last night, other guys say he's got to get paid man 31 yeah for sure also we talked about the cam thomas situation i'm not getting the extension i mean that may work out in his favor i know he had the best game last night but if he killing keep killing away he killing bro he's gonna have a bigger payday as well yeah and they're not having a bad bad year with their form for yeah they're middle of the pack they could just make it to the play-in uh they can try to get to the play-in
Starting point is 00:19:40 they're gonna see both see big paydays. I mean, it's 10 teams. They can't be top 10 in the East. I think, even into your point over there, bro, I think that if they don't, even if they're a part of a trade, like if they're facilitating stuff, because they got a lot of quality role players that can help other teams, they can put themselves in a position to go get somebody else and have a
Starting point is 00:19:59 really solid team next year. I think they got a win-win situation. But I can definitely see them making a plan, bro. If they get on game at this pace, bro, I think they can make it. They can be the 10th seed in the East. Y'all got it. All right. The Kings took care of the Heat yesterday.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Won 11-1-10. Sabonis got the game, went and put back. That was another really solid game yesterday. I like that matchup we talked about of Bam and Sabonis, man. I told y'all again. Sacramento's going to win. I ain't mad at that. Tough game. Solid game, man. I told y'all again. Sacramento's going to win.
Starting point is 00:20:26 I ain't mad at that. Tough game. Solid game, though. They let me down. But it was a close game, so I ain't mad at that. It's cool. For sure.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Listen to Jazz. Got their first win in the season, man. And the Bulls. You a liar. 35-126. Y'all said, George,
Starting point is 00:20:41 33-9. You ain't supposed to be cussing like that. I picked the Jazz. No, you Bulls. I picked the Jazz. No, you didn't. I picked the Jazz. I don't know who said the Jazz was going to be the first one in.
Starting point is 00:20:49 No, you didn't. I did agree with you. The best thing about this is it's recorded so we can go back and see. Who is he lying, bro? I knew. 5.20 a.m. is cat, bro. I didn't say the Rockets was going to win.
Starting point is 00:20:59 I didn't say the Knicks. Whatever, man. That's the only one I was wrong on. I love this. Hey, man, the Jazz, they first win the season. They still in the Cooper Flash sweepstakes. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:21:13 The first double in Chicago ain't too bad. The Bulls, I mean, you lose until the team ain't won. That's tough. It is what it is. They was bound to win one game, though. That's why I picked them yesterday, though.
Starting point is 00:21:21 So it's cool. But you never want to be that team. Well, yeah. It's early, though, bro. I told y'all. NBA really don't get good, bro, until about your 20th game. I remember when the Nets was sad as hell when Courtney Lee was on that team. Shout out to my dog, C. Lee.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Why you choose him first? I remember they won like 12 or 13 games of the year. And like every time we came to play them, bro, we used to play as hard as hell. We was like, we cannot be the team that loses to these sad asses. We are not losing to these sad asses. Bro, we used to play so hard. We tried to beat them by 80. They were so terrible.
Starting point is 00:21:53 They won like 12 games. Hey, boy. Shout out to Courtney, man. Yeah, why we going to start this show with white love and do Courtney like that, man? Shout out to C. I remember we played them. C. Lee used to be like, y'all hurry up and get this shit over with. He was like, Brooke Lopez is going to get 20. That hurry up and get this shit over with. He was like,
Starting point is 00:22:05 Brooke Lopez is going to get 20. That's it. Get this shit over with so we can go out. Wow. Thank God my boy ain't hooping no more. That was awful, bro. He out of pocket. He's crazy. Shout out to C. Lee, man. Rockets took care of the Knicks yesterday, 109-97.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Baby Joker had 25-15. Jalen Brunson had a smooth 29. Solid game. Hey, man, the Rockets are serious, man. They got the rotational players to be serious. They got good coaching, man. We gonna see how it goes. Listen, we gotta change our language on this show, bro. You got some stuff you gotta feel, Chess? Nah, man.
Starting point is 00:22:37 Y'all keep calling people serious, and I don't know what that means. That's like calling a girl bad, and then you see another one that's mid, and you call her bad, too, bro. The Rockets or... I didn't know what that means. That's like calling a girl bad, and then you see another one that's mid, and you call her bad too, bro. The Rockets or? I didn't say the Rockets was serious. The only team I said got potential to make the playing game is the Nets. I respect your opinions, but come on, man.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Y'all be putting the spot early on these teams. Because the East down, though. Like, the East top heavy. I don't know about the East being down.

Starting point is 00:23:14 said and done. But like Atlanta, trash. Toronto, trash. Wizards, Bulls. Hornets. Hornets. I'm saying the Nets could beat them. I'm a Westsideets. I'm saying the Nets could beat them. I'm a Westside nigga. I'm saying the Nets could beat them five teams out. Oh, y'all arguing about the B&M.
Starting point is 00:23:30 I'm just saying the top team. The Rockets could be playing. You don't think the Rockets could get the 10th seed? Bro. Jalen about to have another baby, bro. It's over, bro. Shout out to Jalen Green. You're crazy.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Is that confirmed? No. T. Wilson carried the Hornets yesterday, 114-93. Nasri was killing last night. Smooth, 25. AE Cash was 21. Nothing too magical there. You know what I'm saying? Simple belt to ask. Thunder State undefeated yesterday. 102-86.

Starting point is 00:35:10 Doing everything that he can, bro. Dame is killing. At this point, it's coaching. It has to be. You have to find some way to rally the troops to get them to win these games.
Starting point is 00:35:21 They've been losing a whole bunch of close games. And they got all veteran players. So, I don't know what it come down to, but it gotta be Coach. I mean,
Starting point is 00:35:29 in some context to it, a close game, Giannis did not play yesterday even though Dame still had 36. DG, 39-8. Yeah, I told you.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Kenny know how to get his guards to go. And that was the perfect coach, perfect coach for Darius Garland. He having an all-star capable year. Him and Donovan.

Starting point is 00:37:17 and miss, and then they put the Gatorade commercial in there. Yes, he had a Nick Young moment for sure. He waved Tyrese Maxey off? Yeah, Tyrese is supposed to get that for game. He's supposed to get that for game. He had 32 yesterday. He was sure. He waved Tyrese Maxxio? Yeah, Tyrese is supposed to get that for game. He's supposed to get that for game. He had 32 yesterday. He was killing. He waved him off for time.
Starting point is 00:37:30 The go-ahead shot and definitely. I don't know. I think it's out of pocket, bro. I never waved Tyrese Maxxio. Nah, bro. Give me the pill, bro. You ain't been here. You ain't been here, bro.
Starting point is 00:37:38 I'm the man now. Yes, bro. You just here. You just live here. Be you like you was. It's my dead house. Okay, see. When you once go play with Russ here. Be you like you was in OKC. When you want to go play with Russ or when you want to go play with Kawhi in LA,
Starting point is 00:37:49 be that guy, bro. Don't come out here gunning out the gate, bro. He waved him off. I've been on a tear. He was killing us. Yeah, I deserve this shot, bro. It's early, bro. Let me cook, bro.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Don't kill my confidence, bro. Because now I feel like we're coming down to that situation again. You're going to pull some more shit like that, bro. Now it's going to be beef between us, bro. Yeah, don't wipe me off. Pastor Robert, I've been shooting 40 times a game, bro. I'm asleep, bro. I'm nothing, bro. I ought to say something, bro.
Starting point is 00:38:15 What's his name? He's probably a good kid, though. Yeah, Tyrus Byron. He probably don't want no smoke. Yeah, you four for 14. You having a bad night. Yeah, bro. Don't wipe me off like that. Yeah, pass me the pill, bro. That shit piss me off. I'm like, damn, bro. You a weak-ass dude for that. That's corny, bro. Coach out of pocket.
Starting point is 00:38:32 He should have screamed at PG. Fuck is you doing, my nigga? Nigga, now she's supposed to crash out. Yes, bro. This is my star, bro. You a temp. You have not been hired on fully yet. You are a temp. This is my future. amazon yes bro this is my
Starting point is 00:38:46 future for real this is my tall job bro they gonna crash make tyree's crash out bro that's so disrespectful bro but you know whatever it is what it is early in the season man the six is gonna have a long way to climb to get out of man if they keep losing close games like this man i know pg is getting back to this first game but, it's a big hole to climb out of. Who do you think going to have the biggest or the quicker turnaround between the Bucs
Starting point is 00:39:08 or the 76ers? I mean, Joel, their best player hasn't played. I mean, the Bucs gone and played a couple of games. So, when Joel get back,
Starting point is 00:39:17 it might be a different team. But it's going to be interesting to see how people take in Joel being back. The fans and whatever. He's been going at it with some of the fans and all that.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Most definitely. I got to ask you, I mean, speculate, obviously, it's still early. Do you think Giannis could get moved this year if things don't get good? Say by All-Star break, if things are not so good, borderline 500, do you think the Bucks can move on from either one of their pieces? They can move on
Starting point is 00:39:43 from it, but will they? No. Okay. They can, though, but no. You think losing Giannis maybe forces him earlier? Is that something you can see him doing in the offseason? Offseason. I don't think.
Starting point is 00:39:56 Giannis is not the type of guy to try to, like, cause a little friction in the locker room. He always believes he can come back and win. He one of them dudes. We down 20. We still got a shot because I'm on the team. For sure. When does Chris Midd can come back and win. He one of them dudes we down 20. We still got a shot because I'm on the team. For sure.
Starting point is 00:40:07 When does Chris Middleton come back? I don't know. But they got to have they got to give themselves a chance with Chris. Yeah. That's fair.
Starting point is 00:40:15 Yeah. Yeah. It's just man we didn't expect either one of these teams to start off that way but the way that they look like you said
Starting point is 00:40:20 Dame is playing his ass off not getting a recognition and they still dropping these games. Like you said, the coaching might have to change, but. I mean, you can't. I mean, you can't keep firing every coach. Like, should have just kept Bud from the jump.
Starting point is 00:40:33 And if he was going to fire Bud, he should have kept Adrian. Straight up. He wasn't doing too bad. They defense wasn't about shit back then, but now they on offense, defense, everything about shit. And his record was still better than we had with Doc, so I can't be mad at him for that one. Twitter is so funny.
Starting point is 00:40:50 They like, damn, I got Darv and him, Nick. It's hilarious, bro. That's a tough situation to live in, for sure. For sure. I'm about to throw my name in the hat. The return? I can coach them. I swear to God, I can coach the Bucs right now
Starting point is 00:41:03 and get a win. Okay, what are we doing? Let's talk about it. What's the game plan? I got to revamp the whole starting lineup for sure, though. Bobby Portis, at this point, it's time to hoop. We got to put Brooke Lopez on the bench. We got to play a little faster.
Starting point is 00:41:20 Brooke got to come off the bench. Brooke going to be a focal point off the bench because they never let Brooke post up. He's actually a really good post-up player. They just keep him on the perimeter. Nah, we're going to switch that. We're going to get some buckets in the paint. Let Dame open space to floor for Dame a little more. Bobby being able to play ISO, I'm going to just start him.
Starting point is 00:41:40 We're going to have our defense going to be a little faster because we ain't getting no stops anyway, so shit. Bob's going to get the offensive finish for sure ain't getting no stops anyway. So, shit. Offensive finish for sure. Dang, that's interesting that you say that. We're going to start a coach's corner where we're going to let this nigga basically pick a sad team and how you going to remix the team to make them better. Yeah, we're going to let Teague fix y'all up.
Starting point is 00:41:58 I got a segment for my boy. For the Bucks, bro, I just let Giannis and BP play the start. I just look at all that BP play to start. Like, I just... Mm-hmm. All that. Hey, man. Tap in.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Consultant. You brought y'all a championship. Let my boy get some insight. Help y'all get back to it. Nah, he didn't do all that, but I just... I think that's a good segment. I ain't no one to talk to.
Starting point is 00:42:15 I think that's a good segment. I did bring him a championship. Game six. He was a good team crew. He was Juwan. He was Juwan Howard. If it wasn't for me, game six,
Starting point is 00:42:22 y'all would have never got there. That's Alonzo Mourning on the heat. I'm telling you. Fuck that. I was. Everybody always say Teague taught me how to be a vet. Fuck y'all.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Earlier into the season, man, I know we talked about a couple. Who's been y'all favorite team so far? I know you're going with the Cavs. You got him. Yeah, man. You know, OKC to the death yeah they get into it man that's you know that's been my sleep bro the past couple years so that's why i'm always glad to see them off to a good start um most exciting when john's playing come on you gotta tap in and also like i said i gotta roll with the nets man they be hooping um at the prettiest basketball but like they backcourt
Starting point is 00:43:02 really get to it and i respect that like you know what I'm saying Dennis Schroeder been showing his style Cam Thomas putting the ball up listen they one of them teams if you got a league pass definitely tap in with the Nets man yeah cause that's it cause
Starting point is 00:43:12 ain't no playoff run for them at some point tap in this next couple months cause it might get spooky but right now they playing some good basketball you gotta show love man
Starting point is 00:43:22 you gotta show some respect the Cavs man that's crazy. Nah, the Cavs, that's my squad. I told you. I knew when they got Kenny Alexander as the coach, it was the perfect blend. Like you said, the bigs are playing great together.
Starting point is 00:43:33 Jared Allen's having another all-star type year. Darius Garland's back to his old ways. So it's just a good blend. Can they be OKC? The Cavs? Yeah. If they had just one game, we're not going to play off. One game. I mean, OKC? Cavs? If they have just one game, we're looking to play off. One game?
Starting point is 00:43:47 I mean, OKC is a better team right now, I would say. And I got to say, because they ain't at full health yet. Once they get out there, Hardenstein, and you see, I don't think that that'd be tough. I think it's going to be interesting with Hardenstein, though, because right now what makes them really good is that Chet spaces the floor
Starting point is 00:44:03 and they got all guards. And they just space the floor, drive you, kick you, shoot threes. Everybody can score. When Harnstein get there, the floor ain't going to be that space. I can imagine Harnstein coming off the bench because Chet at the four, it ain't that much
Starting point is 00:44:20 space. What makes Chet so good right now is that he got these slow fives sometimes guarding and he spaces the floor. He can drive them and all that shit. He got a crazy handle. much space. What makes Chet so good right now is that he got these slow fives sometimes guarding. Yeah. And he's facing down the floor. He can drive him and all that shit. He got a crazy handle. But then also,
Starting point is 00:44:31 you probably look at OKC getting out their hard side for the matchups that they can't match up. Yeah, the Jokic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:37 Even, I mean, maybe not preparing too much probably prior to that where you had Castile in Minnesota before Rudy. So he's going to
Starting point is 00:44:43 serve his purpose for sure. But like you said, the tempo of the game with Chet is perfect right now. Nah, facts. That's a hell of an addition to have waiting in the tuck. That's the same way I feel about the Celtics. Like, yeah, they killing right now, and they still getting KP back. Yeah. And when they get him back, that's going to be dangerous.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Yeah, probably over with. Yeah, it could get real spooky for sure. Be here and verify our buckets. Who was getting to it last night? Man, I'm going to have to give it to i'm gonna give it to my boy jerry allen you got me you got me dinner last night bro you took care of dinner last night yeah i bet you'd have 15 and you grabbed it bro so i appreciate you for that man 14 to 15 game winning block yeah that's tough uh i'm gonna rock out with 80 yesterday man he had 37 to 9 bro he lead league in points we always talk about 80 need to step up
Starting point is 00:45:24 being the number one player on the Lakers to lead them somewhere. If they are to go somewhere and he doing what he's supposed to do, we know he got a little foot tweak. We'll see how that goes, but he was killing last night.
Starting point is 00:45:33 It wasn't his fault he lost to the Pistons. Yeah. Facts. Gotta speak on KD, too. Oh, come on, man. 15 in the fourth. He had 35 for the game.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Yeah, KD did his thing last night, man. Doing what he do best. Your man, DG. 39-8, bro. Come on. Indiana zone. I know he from up north, but bro, Bucket, he been killing.
Starting point is 00:45:51 I told y'all before the season started, we needed that kind of energy from him. He been doing his thing this year. Most definitely. Being here yesterday, who need a little pick-me-up, get well soon? Trae Young. Starting off. Yeah, I ain't even looking at the tabby, bro. Trae Young,
Starting point is 00:46:06 two points. You out of pocket, bro. One for ten. Yeah, get him out of there, bro. Send him to the Spurs, bro. He was on Goliath
Starting point is 00:46:13 and he just let Drew have that boy frustrated. Yeah, we know there ain't no hoes on there, so I don't know what his excuse was. I can't believe
Starting point is 00:46:23 I used to watch that, though. Classic show. it's crazy Mike it was soon it's Mark Fuson oh my god you just up your son in the game
Starting point is 00:46:34 to get sacrifices crazy he got punched on BJ Eshkone had four points yesterday and two of the most important ones came on his head
Starting point is 00:46:41 yesterday Paul yeah man bro insane Mike it was soon was about him. What's his name? BJ.
Starting point is 00:46:48 What's your debut? Yeah, your debut. Everybody was so excited. Like, top five pick, and everybody was excited to see him play, to come out with four points and lay an egg like that, really. And to get murdered. That guy smacked. Like, get beat like that.
Starting point is 00:47:01 I mean, after what we've seen him do with the Bahamas team, I was excited for him. To see him play and him come out like that. But what's crazy is, you know what I'm saying? If you only have four points, like you said, an underwhelming performance. But for you to have a highlight, that kind of helped. Hell nah. I would have heard what you said.
Starting point is 00:47:19 You dunked on a walk-on. I can't help you, bro. You dunked on a walk-on. But get well can't. Dunked on a walk-on. I can't help you, Zer, bro. He dunked on a walk-on. But get well soon, Lil' Few. Because he stumbled. Lil' Few. Lil' Few stumbled when he tried to get up. He's been trying to take the ball real fast.
Starting point is 00:47:33 He's trying to take the ball real fast. He's trying to take the ball real fast and stumble. He was drunk after he got dunked on. Yeah, bro. That's how it do. That's crazy, man. Kobe White get well soon. John Collins got his get back.
Starting point is 00:47:46 It wasn't on AE, but he definitely caught him lacking yesterday. Yeah. Y'all know I don't fool with Kobe White, though. I know he don't get well soon, but he had a good game yesterday. I think he had like round 20 last night. He was getting to it. Kobe White, nice. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 00:47:57 Come on, UNC? We'll unpack that one day. It's just different, bro. UNC, they got a decent squad this year. The only thing I hate about UNC, they guards are old as hell. Yeah. It's just different, bro. UNC, they got a decent squad this year. The only thing I hate about UNC, they guards are old as hell. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:08 It's unfair. They always... They're old as hell. Like, bro, y'all in like your eighth year. I don't know how they be getting
Starting point is 00:48:15 so many years in college, bro. It's the last year of the COVID year, I think, though. Is it? Everything's going back to normal? Yeah, I hope.
Starting point is 00:48:21 Sweet. Lord, please. Because, yeah, it be crazy. Like, you be seeing people in college for six years, like, come on. Because R.J, I hope. Lord, please. Because, yeah, it'd be crazy. Like, you'd be seeing people in college for six years. Like, come on.
Starting point is 00:48:26 Because R.J. Davis has got to be 25. Nah, boys is old, bro, for real. I just don't know why you still want to walk around a college campus, bro, that old. They get money. They get money on campus. They get money. They get money. I mean, it's it, but everybody get money?
Starting point is 00:48:40 Yeah, if you go to Chapel Hill. Yeah, if you go to Chapel Hill. But I'm talking about if you go to Loyola, that's a good school. You might be getting $50,000 though. It might not be $100,000, but it might be better than you clocking in. Live off campus at least, bro. They can call that being insane, bro.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Oh, RJ Davis is. Same, you ain't far off, bro. You play with a lot of NBA players, bro. 23 ain't far off bro 23 you play with a lot of NBA players bro 23 ain't that bad though hey listen the NIL I'm about to be in college at 23 though
Starting point is 00:49:11 sleep bro now I'm gonna ask y'all both this question if you could get a decent amount of NIL and not go overseas to hoop or stay in college like
Starting point is 00:49:19 what's the what's the problem cause he could leave school and go play overseas and he probably ain't gonna make it to the league alright now that bread a little bit different. You got to hunt for that. You can go hoop in college again, get this guaranteed bread and live a little bit comfortably. Can we fault them for that?
Starting point is 00:49:30 How much money are we talking about in college? Where am I going? First of all. Regardless of where you're at for college, you get 75. You can go overseas. I'm going overseas. Overseas. I'm going to Barcelona. I'm getting what? A bag? 300? Yeah. If you're a second-round pick. We're not talking about a lot
Starting point is 00:49:45 we're talking about people who borderline second round picks like you know you're going to probably be a two way player so if you don't think you're going to get drafted would you stay for NIL
Starting point is 00:49:53 I'd stay if I ain't going to get drafted yeah that's what I'm saying college and keep if I'm borderline about to get second round pick that means I'm probably getting 500 in college because there's some guys
Starting point is 00:50:03 we know that got 300 and they go to smaller schools that's true Carolina so means I'm probably getting $500 in college. Because there's some guys we know that got $300 and they go to smaller schools. That's true. So, if I'm second round, I know I got $500. What's the dude that go to Arkansas? Went to like Florida International or something that transferred?
Starting point is 00:50:17 He got a meal? Yeah, I know I was better than him getting a meal. Nah, facts. For sure. That's why I said I can't really fall to him because it's low-key to play. Like, if I know anybody that's in the league, all right, cool, I'm going to get this bread. It's better than going to him for it overseas.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Yeah, that's like that one kid, Batcott. What's his name? Batcott. That played on UNC. Oh, yeah. Yeah. He in the bag, so. That's a great way to start.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Two million to start life? Yeah. Oh, boy, he got a good bag, for sure. You can call me Papa. I'll be in the ACC for 18 years. I'm just saying, I'll just be thinking about this. Just get off campus, he got a good bag for sure. You can call me Papa. I'll be in the ACC for 18 years. I'm just saying, I'll just be thinking about this. Just get off campus, y'all. That's all. Most definitely. He got a dog, bro. That's why he's saying
