This year, a lot of the biggest names in music and sports. This kind of star-studded a little bit, man. We met them at their homes. We met them at their recording studios. Stories matter, and it brings a face to them.

Starting point is 00:02:53 Happy Monday. Happy Veterans Day. Thank you to those who serve. We are back at it 520 in the morning. I'm your host. My name is DJ Wells. I'm my esteemed co-host. To my left, I got Bishop Hendricks.
Starting point is 00:03:02 To my right, I got T. Good morning, fellas. How y'all doing? What's happening? What up, dog? Long weekend in sports. We're going to keep you up to date in everything going on. Most importantly, we're going to start with a couple basketball finals last night.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Celtics beat the Bucs last night. Came back from an early 17-point deficit to take the lead, 113-107. Listen, man, we thought there was supposed to be a preview to the conference finals, but right now it's looking like the preview to who get lottery and who's still going on to the playoffs. For sure, man. It thought there was supposed to be a preview to the conference finals, but right now it's looking like the preview to who get lottery and who's still going on to the playoffs. For sure, man. It's wicked in Milwaukee. Yeah, and you can tell, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:03:32 It's a little bit of bad energy between those two teams. Giannis getting to it with JB yesterday, man. Listen, a couple things happened. Let's start off with the fake handshake. What's up with that, man? I mean, I ain't supposed to like you. Like, watch out. You got hit with a joke.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Braxton used to get hit with it all the time by J.B. Fox, bro. Move around, my boy. But that was more of a Braxton joke than a J.B. Fox joke yesterday. The fake handshake, the fake hair, that's some childish shit.
Starting point is 00:03:57 I'm saying, bro. Get it out the butt, my nigga. Like, we gonna fuck with you, so it is what it is. Nah, but after he elbowed him, I thought, you know what I mean? You could tell us a little something else there. JB handled it cool, though.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Yeah. It was funny, though, because he get in a post-conference and we'll talk about that. He's like, he's a child. But listen, you was a part of this. You seen it firsthand. That close out with JT,
Starting point is 00:04:20 you know what I'm saying, with Giannis, some people feel like he slid a foot underneath there. Some people don't. But, you know, it says it's starting to become, some people feel like he slid a foot underneath there. Some people don't. But, you know, it's starting to become a reoccurring thing with that. Is that a dirty play or that's just like a crazy closeout? I'm not going to say it's a dirty play. I don't think Giannis is a dirty player. For sure.
Starting point is 00:04:41 I mean, when you play basketball, you make a conscious effort to move your foot out the way. Like, when I close out and we playing in the men's league, I look down when I close out. I kind of like, I don't want to land on somebody's foot. And vice versa. You know what you're doing, kind of. Yeah. In a way, I probably think it's a little dirty, but I don't think he intentionally wanted to hurt him, though.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Most definitely. Like you said, he doesn't have a reputation for that. But at this point, people are like, all right, maybe the first time we saw this happen previously before, give it a pass. Like, this one's like, all right, bro. Like, you need to need the heart to start closing out differently than we do, so I'll start thinking this is intentional anyway. Yeah, but it's, I mean, when
Starting point is 00:05:12 you lose and you do kind of weird shit, like you wouldn't imagine that you would do. You trying to trust me. I've been there. When you can't get a win, you just start, you know, we're going to win the fight, kind of. Most definitely. It seemed like he was in that one a lot. Listen, man. Y'all just doing everything he can to win, man. kind of. Yeah. Most definitely. It seemed like he was in that one long. Listen, man. Y'all is doing everything he can to win, man.
Starting point is 00:05:27 They wasted another great Yanis game. Let's say, again, they was up 17, blew the game. But his first 40 ball of the season, they still take the L, man. 2-8 on the season. I know we talk about 10-game samples. What's up with Milwaukee? What needs to happen? What do you think could fix it? Hen, you got any suggestions for these dudes right now?
Starting point is 00:05:42 I mean, we talk about it every week, bro. I guess you got to wait until the full team is back and in rhythm so you can see if it'll work out with Chris Middleton or not. But other than that, it's just spooky right now. Is that a lot to ask for, though? Is it a lot to ask for Chris Middleton to be your savior for this season?
Starting point is 00:05:57 Yeah, I think they need to make a trade. They tried to make a trade. Nobody wants to trade with him. I don't know who you trade. You probably got to trade Bobby Porter. He's the only real trade option you got. I mean, you can't trade Dame. You can't trade Giannis.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Bobby Porter's probably the only person you can get rid of. You probably can get some solid pieces back for him. But at this point, it don't look like Giannis is happy. They need to bring T.A. back, I'm telling y'all. That's the missing piece? Yeah, obviously. I mean, you never seen him
Starting point is 00:06:27 play this bad, or the team to be this much in a disarray. You got it. It's something missing. It's probably T.A. I ain't gonna lie. And for sure, like you said,
Starting point is 00:06:36 Dame is killing this year. Giannis is the kill when he's playing. Even some games together, they kill together, but it's just like, it still ain't enough. And we never have too many
Starting point is 00:06:43 performances from Giannis. He's just like, all right, well, he needs to do we never have too many performances from Giannis. He's just like, all right, well, he needs to do more. Nah, it ain't his fault right now. He playing his ass.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Like you said, maybe he doing a lot with the Celtics situation, but he just trying to bring some energy, like some urgency. But as you said, other teams ain't looking like
Starting point is 00:06:55 they really want to deal with them right now, unless it's for those two players. So listen, we already know they do coach changes. Is Doc good this year? Does he stay
Starting point is 00:07:02 to all-star break? They probably good for the rest of the year. Doc, yeah, you can't fire Doc. You didn't fire too many coaches. Yeah, it looked bad, bro. But Doc was never the answer for this team. Fair.
Starting point is 00:07:14 He needs some guys to hold people accountable. I mean, Doc, man, he made all this money. He chilling, man. He really don't care. Doc is like me in my last couple of years in the league. He's like, yeah, I'm just years in the league. He's like, yeah, I'm just here for the check.
Starting point is 00:07:27 He mailed it in. Yeah, why wouldn't you? I mean, I don't know how much they paying on him, but I know it's probably a pretty penny at least.
Starting point is 00:07:34 Yeah. Six million or above. Yeah, he ain't gonna tell you If they lose, if you fire me, I still get paid. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Doc, what, 60-something years old? Yeah, he gonna go play golf or something. They said the reverse effect like they did for Joel. Now, when we suspend you, we making you play. Doc, now we gonna make you stay in
Starting point is 00:07:49 our wheelchair. You ain't about to get a free body. Now we gonna make you coach more. I guarantee he show, like, fire. I mean, he probably really hired Darvin him because he, like, he felt the Lakers did him dirty. He's like, I know I'm gonna get fired. Like, you gonna be up in line. You gonna do well. He probably on some shit I did with Titus Jones for line. You're going to do well. He probably on some shit I did with
Starting point is 00:08:05 Titus Jones, for real. You know what's crazy? If he really was just like, you know what? Hey, listen, this is the best job security in the world.
Starting point is 00:08:12 I'm going to hire the most undesirable assistant coach and if you fire me, guess what? This sucks for you. That's petty as hell if he did that. Norman Hamlin really
Starting point is 00:08:19 is God, though. Yeah, D. Hamlin's God. I wouldn't say he wasn't, but I guarantee you he hired him just because the lakers did him dirty he felt like the lakers did him dirty he was like i don't even care to be here man so they probably get rid of me you're gonna be up in line again you're gonna do a good job the funny things in a hypothetical world if doc is not there and darvin him gets
Starting point is 00:08:43 the bucks back on track into the playoffs. That would be funny as hell. That would be fucking classic. Darvin Hill need that. I guarantee you, Darvin Hill probably do a good job with the Milwaukee Bucs. It's the Lakers, bro. Like, if Bron don't fuck with you, it's over, bro.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Most definitely. I mean, like we said, we talked about this last episode, but even with Frank Vogel, bro, got a ring. They still, which is like, like yeah we still don't care you get out of here facts yeah that's crazy man the bucks uh fear the deer we're gonna have to stop that slogan i mean the deer is still out on the loose bro dear damn her bambi you see what happened to bambi mama it's over that litty is through damn so y'all having a deer meat soup with it. Oh, that's crazy. Put them in the backwoods. I eat my shit on crackers, nigga. On the deer meat?
Starting point is 00:09:29 On me. Damn, bro. That's a hell of an appetizer. Is that that? That's not a culture. So it's really quiet. So they not even a top five duo no more? I mean, yes, technically, but realistically, at two and eight,
Starting point is 00:09:43 you're not the top anything. Yeah, they the... Top for the Cooper flag sweepstakes. 0-1 Clippers, for sure. Great highlights, no dubs. Respect, man. Respect. Shout out to Knuckleheads. Another team that's struggling to the East, the Sixers, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:09:59 Survived a Hornets yesterday, 107-105, got their first home win. They are now 2-7 on the year, man. Shout out to the 76ers. They're playing great. He's a hater. Nah, this is not it, man. I'm glad my boy getting well, though. Tyrese Maxson getting the break that he deserved, man.
Starting point is 00:10:18 So hopefully when everybody come back, they'll be back on the right track. It's still early, so. Definitely. Listen, I got to show some love to the Hornets, man. The Mellow Ball went crazy yesterday. First of all, I got to show some love to the Hornets, man. LaMelo Ball went crazy yesterday. First of all, the shot he hit to go to OT was absolutely filthy. For you to be fading to the corner
Starting point is 00:10:30 out of bounds like that, bro, that's nasty. Yeah, it's showtime for real, bro. Yeah, 38 piece, eight downs. And also, what he did to the Pacers on Friday. LaMelo Ball, man, it's time to show some more respect.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Where is he at? Youngstown Morning Superstars in the league, man. He's top of me. I know how I feel about him. He at the top to me. He's a superstar, bro. For real.
Starting point is 00:10:50 I always feel like he was. Obviously, all-star success before he got to the NBA. But I'm rolling with LaMelo Ball being a young superstar. At least top three. Yeah, a top three PG? Oh, I ain't going to say PG. I say young superstar. I think he's polarized.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I don't know about PG. So you say Young Superstar. You're going to say like Anthony Edwards, LaMelo, and who else? Luka? Are they still considered young? I hope Luka is not considered young anymore. But I always say LaMelo's a young superstar.
Starting point is 00:11:16 Ja! Well, of course, but Ja. I think the influence off the court for me is heavy in that conversation because all the young kids rock with LaMelo. And the way he play, obviously he ain't really accomplished much yet outside of the All-Star. But the way he rocking, bro, when he's healthy, ain't too many people who can rock with him.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Nah, he cold. But I also want to show some love to the young rookie, Jerry McCain. I know he paint his nails and he do his one-two or whatever, but he hoop. Nah, he hoops. He 27 was big for them. Yeah, he did his thing, man. What do you have, a career high 28 or something like that? I think he had like 27,
Starting point is 00:11:45 but they probably need to figure out how to get him more into heavy rotation. Yeah, they're going to have to, when Maxie come back, it's probably going to be
Starting point is 00:11:53 Kyle Lowry who misses a little couple of minutes because they got to play this kid. They got to. They need his contributions too. Man, he can shoot that ball.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Thanks. Most definitely. Like we said, man, outside of Maxie being hurt, you know, and B supposed to make his debut on Tuesday, I think the Philly can turn around the next 10 definitely. Like we said, man, outside of Maxie being hurt, you know, and B supposed to make his debut on Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:12:06 I think the Philly can turn around the next 10 games. You know, we'll have the first nine games with them. How do you feel like their next record is first 10 games
Starting point is 00:12:12 with him coming back? I mean, he's a MVP level player. Score 30 points a game. Easy. I think it's going to change their whole season around. His dynamic is different
Starting point is 00:12:23 than anybody else's in the league. He's the main focal point of that team. And getting your main focal point back, I think it's going to change their whole season around. His dynamic is different than anybody else's in the league. He's the main focal point of that team. And getting your main focal point back, I think it's going to make it a lot easier for PG, for Jerry McCain, all those dudes. I think they're going to go on a little run. Most definitely.
Starting point is 00:12:37 I mean, obviously, it's our job to be critical early in the season. But I was just like seeing what you're saying. Okay, their best player isn't there. And they have practice to be around their best player. So now we'll see what it's like. Now, if the next 10 games is spooky, it's a totally different conversation. But I think once Ben B gets back,
Starting point is 00:12:50 I think it's going to be a little bit different for sure. You just got to stay healthy, bro. That's it. And play. You're going to sat out enough, bro. Just play. Yeah, it's going to be tough, though.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Not playing that long, they probably, they're going to lean on him a lot. He probably going to be on a minutes restriction at the beginning. So it's going to be interesting for sure. I don't know. Paul George got to give me a little more, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Yeah, he ain't. Yeah. We definitely need you to be Kawhi over here, P. He is Kawhi right now. We need you to be like, I'm talking about when he's healthy and playing. Oh. He is Kawhi right now. I'm talking about when he's healthy and playing. Oh. You're going to say, he is quality right now.
Starting point is 00:13:26 He's right now. I'm talking about when he's playing, bro. Step it up, bro. Especially, I'm still mad at you for taking that shot away from Reese, bro.
Starting point is 00:13:33 When he waved off. That's when the hamstring injury happened. I have to wave off. Still tight about that, bro. Probably George Averton like 15, 15 points or something like that.
Starting point is 00:13:41 Yeah, it's not. It's not the PGA Tour. I think he had like 18 yesterday. And he's consistent running more but I agree like we need you to be that be a dog bro
Starting point is 00:13:49 if you got you a max player yeah be a dog yeah that's crazy because when people say you know age and situations matter
Starting point is 00:13:55 but nah if I'm paying you as a max row but I need max stats yeah bro he not 40 bro averaging 14 he got Jeff Teague stats in Minnesota
Starting point is 00:14:02 I'm sleep I'm sleep bro I'm sleep, bro. I'm asleep, bro. Facts. Yeah, nah, for real. Like, we didn't bring you here for that. Nah, not with you.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Like, them stats are okay if Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey are playing at super high levels. And you're just the odd man out, and you're getting 15, but you're locking up. Maxey hurt, Embiid ain't didn't play yet and you averaging 14. Dare I say Tobias Harris numbers? Yeah, like you really Tobias Harris. I'm just saying that's what Tobias Harris did.
Starting point is 00:14:34 They was killing Tobias Harris. Killing him for it, bro. Tobias is 14 and 8 light. I'm saying. But his teammates was healthy. You're right. I guarantee he put Tobias Harris on this team right here
Starting point is 00:14:48 with them two nudes out he get you 25 on my life on everything killer I ain't gonna put too much faith in Tobias Harris shout out to him
Starting point is 00:14:55 listen y'all gotta stop disrespecting Tobias Harris he's a legend at the baby I think y'all slandered him because of the amount of paper he made
Starting point is 00:15:03 but he is really a solid... Nah, I'm not saying you are, bro, but the people really do on Twitter especially be killing him. He's one of the best
Starting point is 00:15:10 role players that the organization has seen, bro. Well, I would say if you look at his stats in the last series that he played for the Philadelphia 76ers,
Starting point is 00:15:17 he deserves a lot of slander he gets. Nah, but that's a series, bro. He gets a rock. Bro, people were hurt, bro. He had every opportunity to show, bro. I'm okay to have a bad album, bro. I'm not LeBron. I'm not PG. I'm not Kawh hurt, bro. He had every opportunity to show, bro. I'm okay to have a bad album, bro.
Starting point is 00:15:26 I'm not LeBron. I'm not PG. I'm not Kawhi, bro. I'm allowed to have a bad album, bro. I'd have had a solid career, bro. Definitely. More than solid. More than solid.
Starting point is 00:15:35 You got to respect the bag. Like, so, I respect it. Shout out to Tobias, man. Speaking of it, me going crazy. Listen, man. Yoke doing what Yoke does. Crazy game yesterday against the Mavs. They got the dub.
Starting point is 00:15:46 122 to 120. NPJ game winning. Floating six seconds left. Hey, man. Yoke is doing what he does. Another 30-point triple-double. 37-15 to 18, man. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Oh, my goodness. We talked about it, bro. He putting the team on his back, man. They be getting to it. He's unbelievable, bro. Like, the fact that he doesn't, like, we're going to keep stressing. He doesn't care about basketball. He's just good. He's just, bro. Like, the fact that he doesn't, like, we're going to keep stressing. He doesn't care about basketball. He's just good.
Starting point is 00:16:07 He's just better than everybody. This is where you got to learn skill development. This is like me going to my coach's corner or whatever. People got to be more skilled. Like, the American players right now, we lack skill. We lack super athletic, and we can do one-on-one training or whatever. We can do 1,000 step backs and 1,000 dribbles. He's just a really good basketball player because he's skilled and he got a high iq
Starting point is 00:16:28 like he's not athletic he's slow as shit he built funny and he out here getting 37 points 15 rebounds 18 i mean 18 rebounds 15 assists in the african-american league yeah with just straight skill like we laugh when you say i got got the athleticism of Jokic. Like, everybody, oh, that shit's hilarious. And like, shit, fuck it. Take my athleticism away and give me this. I want those, bro. Nah, thanks.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Like, that is crazy. Four straight games, average of 29, 14, and 15. Bro, that is crazy. Unbelievable. And what's so crazy is, and respect the world to Joel Embiid, because he's a hell of a player, but it's a hell of a difference between him and Jokic to me. Like, it's just a difference.
Starting point is 00:17:08 Even though I've seen Joel dominate, the way that Jokic dominates is simply playing the right way, doing the simple stuff, not doing too much, making the right reads, bro. It's crazy. He's just more dependable. Most definitely. Like, you want to play with somebody getting 15 assists and 18 rebounds.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Like, the way he plays, bro. Embiid ain't doing that. Nah, the way he plays, bro. Embiid ain't doing that. Nah, the way he plays is unbelievable, bro. Now, listen, we know he's a reluctant winner,
Starting point is 00:17:29 but is there another MVP season for Yoke? Yeah, and he don't even want to win the MVP. He didn't play every day since the NBA started. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Because he played for so many times. He already got my vote, bro. Anthony Davis are battling for MVP, but Yoke is. We so used to him
Starting point is 00:17:44 being this good that we, like, surprised Anthony Davis is like, you know, we kind of shocked. Like, Anthony Davis are battling for MVP but Jokic we so used to him being this good that we like surprised Anthony Davis is like you know we kind of shocked like Anthony Davis man he's playing
Starting point is 00:17:50 he's playing this high level then you go look at Jokic he got 30 tripled over averaging 29 and we just like bypass it like Jokic being Jokic
Starting point is 00:17:59 it's crazy and it's so crazy is the way that he produces it's just like whatever the team needs tonight alright if they suck tonight alright cool I'm gonna kill everybody else going crazy I'm gonna just distribute it's so crazy is the way that he produces. It's just like whatever the team needs tonight. All right, if they suck tonight, all right, cool. I'm going to kill. Everybody else going crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:08 I'm going to just distribute. It's crazy, bro. He really dictates the game. We got to respect it, man. Bro, he was literally the best player in the NBA, and it's crazy. Because he doesn't meet any of the eye tests. If I go in the gym and I see him, I'm immediately not picking him. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Even at that size? Like, if I walked in the gym and I seen Jackson Hayes and I seen him, I'm like, oh, yeah, yeah, let me get Jackson Hayes. Like, you just looking. You ain't watched him play or nothing. Oh, I see what you're saying. And Jackson Hayes ran to the basket and dunked. I'll be like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Like, I'm rolling with that. And then they start playing, he's going to give Jackson Hayes 1,000 points. That first possession. Yeah, you're going to be like, what the hell? Like, he's going to give Jackson Hayes a thousand points. That first possession. Yeah, he's going to be like, what the hell? Like, he don't meet the eye test at all. He's sloppy built. He walk on the side of his shoes.
Starting point is 00:18:52 He definitely do. He tear them hoop shoes up, boy. He be treating them like the two small forces. They be leaning. Yeah, bro. There's no way you would pick him if you seen some of these other guys.
Starting point is 00:19:02 Like Andre Drummond even. Like, you'll be like, yeah, I'm going to go with him, man. He look athletic blah blah blah oh yeah he killed him about he the cold old dude at the hoop session indirectly he just he showed up fresh off the gig that was me back in the day bro shout out to yoke bro sort of guy it's gonna be the post oh man luca though like if you look at them they like yeah they don't meet the eye test at all but But, see, the thing for me with Luka is Luka talk a lot of shit. Obviously, Yoko ain't no saying neither. But, like, Luka start off with the bullshit.
Starting point is 00:19:29 All right, I'm about to kill y'all real quick. Yoko just like, all right, man, let me hurry up and get off the clock so I can go home and do what I want to do. Yeah, facts. I think, bro, just saying, like, you walk in the gym and you see Shea. Yeah. And then you see Luka. No racism. It's like.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Yeah. He looks more like a basketball player. Yeah, I'm going to roll with Shea. Like, Luka look like he smoke cigarettes like a basketball yeah I'm gonna roll and say like Luka look like he smoke cigarettes drink beer and he does yeah
Starting point is 00:19:49 and Jokic look the same way yeah they look like they smoke squares and drink beers and then they the best two players in the league arguably like
Starting point is 00:19:57 it's crazy I can't wait till we get a world where they both play on the same team I want that to happen man I don't even have a part in their problem
Starting point is 00:20:03 but that would be fire if they come over on the same team they just way too skilled happen, man. I don't want them to have a part in their problem, but that would be fire if they come up on the same team. They just way too skilled.

Starting point is 00:26:37 Obviously, we know Chet got injured in that game. Unfortunately, he's going to be out for eight to ten weeks, which is crazy. But looking like Steph, man, dropped a smooth 36 piece. Before we get there, you know what I'm saying, we got to see the time table for Isaiah Harden's time. But I wanted to talk about the Warriors. It's looking like 2022, man, dropped a smooth 36 piece. Before we get there, you know what I'm saying, we got to see the time table for Isaiah Harden's time. But I want to talk about the Warriors. It's looking like 2022, Steph, man. And Dre, I don't think he's going to be on vacation with you, man.
Starting point is 00:26:53 He almost got there, you know what I'm saying, swinging at an old boy like that. But listen, like seriously. Dre was out of pocket for that. For Lou Doran, swinging at him like that. Yeah, bro, chill, bro. That was a lot, bro. What you doing, fam?
Starting point is 00:27:05 Ray's the youngest, man. Don't hurt him, man. Well, bro. Chill, bro. That was a lot, bro. What you doing, fam? Ray's the youngest, man. Don't hurt him, man. Well, he already messed that up. He did swing on him hard, though. Dre out of pocket. Dre, let me find out you touching them shrooms, bro. Shrooms and black forces
Starting point is 00:27:18 is a dangerous combination. But listen, Steph killing. It looked like he could take this team somewhere and the rotation's been good. We've been talking about him. Now it's time to respect him. Have your way.
Starting point is 00:27:28 I always believe in Steph. He said it was the deepest team they had. Paul said they was going to be good, and I guess he's proving us wrong. We thought we was going to suck. We thought they was going to be on vacation early. Well, I did not really, but BN did. Yeah, I still don't believe.
Starting point is 00:27:44 I thought Buddy Hill would be a good piece for them because he fits how they play. But I'm not going to say I expected this. And we might be wrong about Kaminga. He might not get a max deal.
Starting point is 00:27:55 He's going to play himself into some money still, though. Might not be what he thought he was going to get, but he's still going to get a cool contract because he'll still be hooping. Mad man killing yesterday.
Starting point is 00:28:03 And it's funny because Chet got injured contesting his layup yesterday. And it's funny because Chet got injured contesting his layup yesterday. And it's funny because Chet made a tweet. He was just like, I'm mad that I got hurt. He still made that layup. Yeah. Like, let that shit go. But the way he's rolling to the rim off them screens, bro, right?
Starting point is 00:28:15 He's just diving to the basket, catching the ball, finishing, bro. He's going to make a lot of money doing that, simplifying his game for sure. Yeah. Instead of trying to be the guy, he's just trying to be one of the guys. And he's fitting in perfectly right now off the bench. And then, like, some of them other guys that y'all talk about, like the Anthony Milton and those dudes, man, they hooping. Yeah, they hooping.
Starting point is 00:28:31 The Warriors got a good blend of young talent and old heads, and they kind of mission it all together, and it's kind of coming out right. I'm a D. Anthony Milton fan. I've always liked his game, especially the way he played in Philly and the way he played in Memphis. He's one of those other guards you can play next to Steph who can still create, still make the right play, and hit an open shot. They got, like you said, a good combination of great, solid players.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Behan, you going to follow me by hand, man? No. You need no 10 games to respect the Warriors? I can have y'all talk, bro. I'm asleep on them. Anytime you got Steph, though, like one of the greats of the greats, anytime you got him, you always got a chance. Like, he can of the greats of the greats. Anytime you got him, you always got a chance.
Starting point is 00:29:06 Like he can make the game. Like I was watching something Derek White was saying. When Steph start hitting threes, people forget how to play basketball. Like he like makes you do all type of crazy stuff. Like you start running at him. Two people start jumping at him. Now he just throwing it down to Draymond getting layups. People that don't usually score start getting easy baskets just because he made a couple threes. And I watched it last night. He hit a couple step-back threes.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Okay, so he forgot how to play basketball. They started flying at him off screens. He was throwing it to Trace. Trace getting layups. Kaminga getting layups. And that Steph effect is real. Is that what separates him from Dame? Yeah. I mean, Dame, he can make
Starting point is 00:29:43 them same shots. So I'm never saying that Steph don't have a different effect than Dame on the game. I'm saying Dame and Steph got the same kind of capabilities. They both can make shots. But Steph just has a different effect. When he start hitting threes, you think he going to make every single shot. You're like, oh, Lord. And next thing you know, their team is geared around Steph. So they'll get him open.
Starting point is 00:30:04 They're going to do everything in the possible to get him open. And once they start doing that and he's making shots, everybody else becomes 10 times better because he's going to make the right play. Everybody, like you said, when Steph starts going, everybody gets undisciplined. All the game plans go completely out the window. And then you look up and you want a 20-5 run. Yeah, facts, bro. You forget everything that happened.
Starting point is 00:30:23 You start chasing him. Everybody trying to make sure he doesn't get an open three and they getting layups. Most definitely. Also, another great game in the West yesterday. We had an OT thriller. You know what I'm saying? The Kings took care of the Suns yesterday. Won 27-18. Obviously, KD's out with a hamstring for a couple of weeks. But, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:30:37 DeRozan, 34 yesterday, dominating an OT. They brought him there for that very reason, man. Yeah, killer, bro. They not like us. The more I do on what he do, good to see him lead them boys to a victory, though, for sure. And what's dope about that team is you already got one of the greatest closers in the NBA that don't get enough credit
Starting point is 00:30:54 in De'Aaron Fox. You got two people in the clutch that you can get a ball to and get isolation or creation from both of them. Once they figure it out, man, the Kings got a roster, man. They just need a little bit more chemistry from me. I like them better than the Warriors. I know. it out, man, the Kings got a roster, man. They just need a little bit more chemistry from me. I like them better than the Warriors. I know. I know. See, the only
Starting point is 00:31:10 problem with that is, historically, the Warriors beat them. If it wasn't for them having that type of situation where they historically kick their ass, I would feel differently. Fuck history. There we go. You said this is up this year? Yeah, I'm taking sack. If they meet up in the playoffs, give me sack time. I'm on record today saying that. They don in the playoffs, give me Sacktown.
Starting point is 00:31:25 I'm on record today saying that. They don't got enough. Like the bean. They don't got enough. I like them. I like them more. I like De'Aaron Fox. But when the Warriors match up, the Warriors match up well with them.
Starting point is 00:31:36 They got a bunch of wings that can guard. I'm not going to say they're going to lock Debo up, but they can guard him. And they got a bunch of wings that can guard De'Aaron Fox and allow Steph to roam around. Don't have to guard nobody. Guard Kevin Herter. No disrespect to Kev, but it's like. Malik Monk.
Starting point is 00:31:54 It's a bonus. Yeah, but we cool with not playing. Like, y'all going to play through Kevin Herter and Malik Monk the whole game. We cool with that. We need to see when that matchup happens throughout the season when they play. They already played, right? They played one time already. All right, who's going to win the bet?
Starting point is 00:32:11 I want to bet that. You said who won? I think the Warriors won. We're running that bet up, too. Okay. I like this. So you're right with the Kings and Warriors. They meet up.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Okay. Nice matchup. I mean, obviously, Katie was hurt yesterday, but the Suns still looking good. No, yeah, they straight, bro. Great game. Bradley Beal yesterday. He was waiting to get the opportunity to shoot the ball with Katie out and did his thing for sure. But also contributed.
Starting point is 00:32:30 I think they're going to be all right. Like we said, Bud got them playing at a great level. Once Katie get back, I think it's up for them too. But I got to show you I can win without Katie. These next two weeks going to prove how you are without me. I agree. I better figure it out. And they have the capability. Tyus Jones played great yesterday as well. Like, they got a. I agree. I better figure it out. And they have the capability.
Starting point is 00:32:45 Tyus Jones played great yesterday as well. They got a squad, man. They can figure it out. But, again, KD is a person that makes their team go to where they're supposed to be. Listen, man, the Blazers, they shouldn't even be allowed to be in the Cooper Flats sweepstakes anymore. They should be in the South Bay sweepstakes because getting beat by 45 and John Murray didn't play yesterday.
Starting point is 00:33:06 It's crazy. They're doing what they're supposed to, bro. Bro, losing by 45 is crazy. Grizzlies beat the Blazers by 45 yesterday. I'm not even going to give you a game final box score because it doesn't matter. They lost by 45. That's nasty.
Starting point is 00:33:18 They do what they're supposed to do, bro. Y'all said put them in the sweepstakes. You got to do what you got to do, bro, to get it, bro. Now, Jeff always talks about, you know what I'm saying, if you don't score 100, you sad. Scoring 89, you sad, bro. You can't score 100 points in this new NBA, y'all sad, bro. I'm just keeping it real, bro.
Starting point is 00:33:37 I know what they doing, man. Keep going. I'm with it. I can't wait till the next segment of the show. We got to play the Chauncey Billings postgame, bro. Free Chauncey, man. At this point, Chauncey, man, just get the check, bro. I swear to God, if I was the coach of the Portland Trail Brothers,
Starting point is 00:33:51 we would never have shoot around. We would never have practice. We just show up. Who healthy? That's who playing tonight. How many people would you play? Everybody? Oh, whatever.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Five in, five out. Damn, YMCA squad. Whoever make the most money start. Whoever next in line. I wouldn't care. So I got to ask,
Starting point is 00:34:15 how long is T keeping that job? Because that first T game losing streak for that five points. I'm losing by 45 points playing real, trying to coach them. Exactly. I got a chance just letting y'all play free.
Starting point is 00:34:28 We all need to agree as an organization. Let me keep my job now, damn it. Let's go with the plan, though. I ain't going to lie. I don't even care about the job. At that point, I'll be like, y'all can fire me. I still got to get my check. But you don't want to go down like that.
Starting point is 00:34:44 You're going down like that. Give me another year. This is year two for Chauncey. Give me another one, man. Why would I want another year? Third time is a charm, bro. But you know how this works. Because I got a chance to get Cooper.
Starting point is 00:34:56 You know how this works, man. What is that going to do? Y'all still going to be sad. Even if they get Cooper, they're going to fire Chauncey and bring in a new coach. So guess what? Y'all want to fire me?
Starting point is 00:35:03 I'm about to, hey, end of the season, we're going to start winning the games. Nah, I'm not. No power to that. Chauncey will bringing a new coach. So guess what? Y'all want to fire me? I'm about to, hey, end of the season, we're going to start winning the games. No, I'm not. No power to that. Chauncey will be a coach next year. I'm not saying Chauncey ain't a good coach, but he just in a bad situation. He took the job thinking he had Dame.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Facts. Now that's a true story right there. Yeah, now you don't got Dame and they give you this. And no disrespect to School Henderson, no disrespect to anybody on that team. But y'all scored 89 points. Out of pocket, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:30 I agree. No disrespect, but no respect for yesterday's performance. I know what Sunday boys are chilling, but getting 45-piece with no jobs crazy.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yeah, come on. Like, they were cheering for Yuki to get his first points, bro. That's nasty. Come on, bro. Get well soon, bro. Just can't wait to talk about them later.
Starting point is 00:35:46 But last but not least, man, the T-Wolves took the L yesterday to the Heat, 95-94. Eric Sposher's just showing why he is like that because he drew up a game-winning play that was filthy yesterday. I'm not mad at that, bro. It was a nail-biter.
Starting point is 00:35:58 With the out-of-bounds play from that one. I ain't mad at that. He could lock out the game with a dub or delay. And what's crazy is another low 900-point game, man. 95-94.
Starting point is 00:36:09 I mean, but that's fair. That's a part of the game, bro. Bad basketball. When we both score under 100, it was smooth.
Starting point is 00:36:17 That's what I'm saying. It was smooth. It was either really good or We're not sad. We're not sad. What's the heat record? We're not sad, bro.
Starting point is 00:36:24 Oh, we gotta Google that right now. It's still 500. I know that much sad, bro. Oh, we gotta Google that right now. They're sub 500. I know that much. Oh, you can speak on the Heat all you want. You ain't talking about Minnesota. Minnesota, they up and down team. It's just the beginning, bro.
Starting point is 00:36:35 It's 100 games in the NBA. We on game nine. Free band. But you can tell by the tendency of people, like, what kind of team they're going to be after 10 games. Hey, that's what they did with Mel're going to be after 10 games. Hey, that's what they did
Starting point is 00:36:45 with Melo. They had a lick after game 10, game 11. I mean, y'all can do all these analytics, all these stats.
Starting point is 00:36:53 We'll see, bro, after the All-Star game. I don't care nothing about that. I ain't saying Ant, Ant, Ant,
Starting point is 00:36:59 a superstar, he going to do what he going to do, but the rest of that team is an up and down team. Like some people played beside themselves last year.
Starting point is 00:37:08 I like McDaniels. He's a good player. But I ain't putting too much stock in him getting 20 a game. Yeah. And one thing I think that people need to realize
Starting point is 00:37:18 with them and cut them a little grace, even though they're playing just fine, they did go over a crazy change in that team, bro. Losing Cat,
Starting point is 00:37:24 picking up new pieces. Everybody has to adjust. I mean, they still figuring it out. And the real J.R. in that team, bro. Losing Cat, picking up new pieces, everybody has to adjust. I mean, they still figuring it out. And the real JR is getting to it, too. But I mean, tough game yesterday, for sure. But I want to ask y'all, who's the top dog in the West? Give me your top three teams in the West so far. I know we just listed a couple contenders. Who y'all rocking with so far early in the season?
Starting point is 00:37:40 I guess for now, you could put OKC. Most definitely. I'm taking Denver. I throw the Warriors in for the grace of the beginning of the season. I'm going to go back with Denver. I think they're going to be in the top dog.
Starting point is 00:37:58 I mean, OKC losing shit. I think that's going to hurt. Definitely. He's about to be out for a while. I know the Warriors are playing well, but I think Denver's starting to find that groove. Russ is playing good off the bench. Jamal Murray came back big night the other day at 30-piece. So I think they're going to start finding that groove.
Starting point is 00:38:15 And the Warriors, they hot right now. And I know when they start getting hot, it gets spooky in the league. So I'm going to go with the Warriors too. For sure. Obviously, we got to see how they play without KD. But I'm going to show the Suns some love, man. We didn't expect the Suns to be as good as they were.
Starting point is 00:38:28 They started off hot. Obviously, him getting hurt kind of derails that a little bit. But if they can maintain while he's gone or they can string together some wins while he's away, that's going to show me something for real. Like you said, the real test of that team is going to be if they can win without him. What win if he's not having the best night? So most definitely, you got to show some love to the Suns, man. Like you said, 10-game sample.
Starting point is 00:38:44 A lot to talk about. But we got something else to talk about the Knicks and why they suck. Because they lost to the Pacers yesterday. And not because, you know what I'm saying, the Pacers are a bad team. We're just a good team when we play good teams. And we had, you know what I'm saying, a historic night for Benedict Mather, my boy, 38-piece career high. Tyrese, they was talking bad about you.
Starting point is 00:39:01 I kept the receipts, my dog, 35-14, something slight yesterday. What's up, T? We figuring it out. The Knicks just boo-boo. Them I kept the receipts, my dog, 35 and 14, something slight yesterday. What's up, T? We figuring it out and Nick's just boo-boo. Them Kmart receipts. Nah, he just made some shots. Kmart's great.
Starting point is 00:39:11 When he makes shots, he a different player. He had some threes, he a different player, but all right, good job. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:39:18 We beat the Knicks. That's what we do for a living. But let's talk about the Knicks, man. What can they do? Because they had some key contributions yesterday, but still came up short. They lost Devin Chancellor. That hurt them talk about the Knicks, man. What can they do? Because they had some key contributions yesterday, but still came up short. They lost Devin Chinzo.
Starting point is 00:39:28 That hurt them. I'm telling y'all. Trading Devin Chinzo was, he was not the heart and soul of the team, but he was the guy that gave them, like, that spark.
Starting point is 00:39:36 He made big shots. He hit big threes. And he played hard as shit. And they had a, he let everybody else be great. Like, he let Jalen be great like he let Jalen be great
Starting point is 00:39:45 it wasn't too much pressures on him he just shot his threes and played hard Mikel Bridges is not the same he don't got the same effect like
Starting point is 00:39:53 his jumper hit or miss no ain't the same effect he don't cut as hard as Devin Jensen like he used to be Mikel was known
Starting point is 00:40:02 for cutting super hard and making corner threes and now you just don't see that really seem like he used to be. Mike Hill was known for cutting super hard and making corner threes. And now you just don't see that really. Seemed like he got relaxed after he got the bag. I mean, but he was killing in Brooklyn. Yeah, but I'm saying, though, he's just comfortable. He's just comfortable, bro. He don't got the dog in him no more.
Starting point is 00:40:19 He trying to find his way with that team. You know, after going from Phoenix where you had your role with CP and all those guys, somebody, you're a young guy trying to find your way. Then you go to Brooklyn, and they give you the ball, and you're like, the guy, you're averaging 28, doing all this crazy shit, and now you go to a team where they go to the corner and go back to your normal spot like you was. You don't know how to fit in right now. And it's looking like, like you said, the Devin Chinzo effect is the fact that he allowed
Starting point is 00:40:44 everybody else to play comfortable and do what he was supposed to do. That type of effect on the team. I don't think Bridges has that same type of effect. Because he don't want to be the third option no more. Yeah, and I don't feel like he think he should be. Yeah. Yeah, it's a big difference when, you know what I'm saying,
Starting point is 00:40:56 when CP and Booker's telling you that. But the other two are way better than you, though. Yeah, but... And you chose to come here. Yeah. Yeah, but I think D.J. Jensen just he just fit that mold better
Starting point is 00:41:07 he was a New York Nick type of player yeah for sure and I'm not saying Bridges is not but he had already
Starting point is 00:41:15 found his role play hard fight do everything I hit my three and I talk shit and he actually playing well in Minnesota
Starting point is 00:41:22 he hooping in Minnesota so he was a John Starks. Yeah, he had that John Starks type of vibe. And it's funny because we've seen, I mean, I'll say success, but you know what I'm saying, boiling 500. Nobody expected the Nets to be as
Starting point is 00:41:35 good. He leaves and now you got Cam Thomas and Dennis Schroeder shooting all the shots. So, I don't know, man. With the Knicks, I've always said them getting OG and having him, they have got to figure that out because it looks like it's not helping that team. But, you know, they're not that good anyway. But Cavs undefeated. Hey, man, they've been talking on the internet streets, man.
Starting point is 00:41:53 They want to see how you feel about this. Yo, 2015 Hawks, do they want to smoke with this new Cavs team? I'm going to fuck them up. Oh, okay. On me. Let's go. I'm a sort of guy. We're the best of them all.
Starting point is 00:42:03 On me. But they got, they had a better score than us. Obviously, Donovan Mitchell would be the overall probably the best player in the series.
Starting point is 00:42:13 It was the ability to score the ball, but we would have killed them. Let's line them up. You and DG. We would have killed them. We would have beat them too.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Easy. Okay. At the two, you got Donovan and who? Who was the two of y'all team? Quote, unquote. Kyle Cordero. Kyle, yeah, that's tough. At the two, you got Donovan and who? Who was the two of y'all team? Quote unquote. Kyle. Kyle.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Yeah, that's tough. At the three, Isaac Kukoro and Demar. Yeah, they the same people. Low. Low key. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:34 Definitely. Now the four or five is where it get a little different. Paul Mills had to fuck Mobley up. Out the gate. Yeah. Yeah. Christmas.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Stretch. Al Horford fucking stretch up. But like, Al Horford's still playing right now, bro. Still producing. Yeah, it's still nice. We would have beat them. I got y'all for sure. I hate on that team.
Starting point is 00:42:54 You got to think. The only team that was smacking us was Bron. Donovan Mitchell, good. He not Bron. He not Bron. We good. I agree. I agree with that.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Let me see what we played that was him like on them runs we played Darren Williams and Joe Johnson you know what I mean in the first round that Brooklyn team
Starting point is 00:43:13 yeah we played that Brooklyn team not that Cavs team not better than that Brooklyn team by any means nah
Starting point is 00:43:19 there is Garland not better than Darren Williams no Donovan Mitchell not better than Joe I mean it's a toss-up. At that time period,
Starting point is 00:43:27 and no disrespect to Joe, I think the time period plays a part in that conversation too. Yeah. Because that was an older Darren Williams. That wasn't Utah Darren Williams.
Starting point is 00:43:34 Yeah, but he was still nasty. No, no, respect for sure. He was still into it. Yeah, I just, I don't. This 2012, I told y'all, this is the T-Bowl of the NBA right now.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Shout out to your man. What's his name? Kenny? Kenny. Shout out to K.A. K.A. Good job, Nasty. But it's over with, bro.
Starting point is 00:43:52 They was comparing our teams, though. That's funny. Yeah. They said, how'd it start? They said, oh, it's the Miami 15 Hawks team. I was like, oh. They got a chill, bro. So they putting that cap on y'all already, K.A.
Starting point is 00:44:02 I'm running with the cap. They putting the cap on y'all already. Don't let them running with the cap. They put the cap on y'all already. Don't let them start calling y'all the Little Giants here soon. Don't do that. In my life, I already did. Ain't no soon. Y'all are them right now, bro. But, Dan, what they got?
Starting point is 00:44:14 They saying they might have four All-Stars? No, they better not. They better not. Who, DG? They have a four All-Star, they think? They better not. They better not. I can see that, though.
Starting point is 00:44:25 In the East, they better not, bro. No, bro. In respect to everybody's great season, no. Jared Allen playing great. Jared Allen being an all-star, I'm not mad at. Evan Mobley playing good, too, though. Evan Mobley not supposed to be an all-star in the East. And that's no disrespect to him.
Starting point is 00:44:37 He playing great, though. He is, Cole. Y'all know I was proud of him. Darius Garland's moving. Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell are solidified all-stars for sure. Okay, and Jared Allen's going to get it because he's playing crazy at the 5. So, Mobley, what's Mobley having right now? Having three is crazy.
Starting point is 00:44:48 I'm sleepy. Having four is nuts, bro. Three is realistic. If Evan Mobley makes, I mean, 18-8, that's solid. So, he's an All-Star. Got to respect it. I ain't damn near an All-Star. I know.
Starting point is 00:44:59 That's my favorite player on 18. 18-8. Nah, I'm sleepy. I respect it. Four, no. Four is crazy, bro, I'm slipping. Respect it. Four? No. Four is crazy, bro, in the East. If they number one in the East, and they all averaging what they averaging,
Starting point is 00:45:12 they might get four, bro. Look, Milwaukee down. You can't be an all-star if your record like that shit is right now. Yeah. Y'all just still going to start? Tyrese Maxey was going to be an all-star. He out. People have Paul George out. Yeah. Y'all just still going to start? Tyrese Maxey was going to be an all-star. He out. People have Paul George, you know, out.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Yep. And B, we don't know. He might be out. You know, he might make the all-star team, but he might sit out. So, Jared Allen might get his spot. Jared Allen is going to definitely get a big position because they had too many codes. I'm asleep, bro. There's too many killers out east, bro.
Starting point is 00:45:44 I don't care, bro. Trae Young, bro. I'm asleep. No. They record too many killers out east, but I don't care, bro. Trae Young, bro, I'm asleep. No. They record too bad. No, bro. LaMelo getting an all-star spot for sure. LaMelo going to get an all-star spot. Nothing on Jerry Allen and Evan Mobley, and I love Emo, but bro, no. I don't want to start hating the cast,
Starting point is 00:45:57 but y'all getting four all-stars, that's going to make me start to hate you. I'm rolling four all-stars for the cast. That's nasty work. 2015. Invite me to the game, Cleveland. I'm believing. I'm rolling. Four all-stars for the Cavs. That's nasty work. 2015. Hey, invite me to the game, Cleveland. I'm believing. I'm rolling. Kenny Atkinson, coach of the year. I can't wait until they lose in the NCAA tournament.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Look, I hope Kenny coached the all-stars, but you only bringing two of the guys, bro. Nah, you got three. He get fours tripping, bro. Four. They deserve it. There's only 12 spots. I've been there before.
Starting point is 00:46:19 I know what it feels like. I know you do. You deserve it. Nobody watch that shit. Yeah, they did. We was in New York. We was in New York. We was in New York. We was at the guard.
Starting point is 00:46:26 That's why I had the worst weather in the world. We was at the guard. Lit. I shook Jay-Z's head. I don't know where they all-star game at this year. Where is that? New Orleans? San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:46:36 Yeah, you can't get four, bro. Nah, four is nasty. I don't even want to say it at this point, but that's going to really make me start hating the Cavs. I want to respect them and how good they playing. Four all-stars. John deserves three. Tyrese ain't making for all-star games. John deserves three. Tyrese ain't making an all-star game.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Three? Tyrese who? Halliburton. Okay. What do you have for us tonight? He had one good game. How many people had 35 and 14 this year? I'll walk away with it.
Starting point is 00:46:57 It don't matter. Tyrese is making an all-star game. For sure. Unless he's injured and not playing, Tyrese is making an all-star game. He's averaging. Go to Tyrese stats. He's shooting a great 26%. Dang.
Starting point is 00:47:08 But guess what? The Pacers got a better record than the Bucs. He having a bad season. His average is 17, 8, and 4. Oh, my God. He's an all-star. That's not all-star. Wait until we get out of that.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Only that's not all-star. He's playing terrible. He had to get the score. Listen. At that rate, Moe Mill. Moe the all- Moe Mell. Moe Mell.
Starting point is 00:47:25 Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell. Moe Mell.
Starting point is 00:47:25 Moe Mell. Book it. Y'all crazy. Evan Moe Mell. If it started today, Evan Moe Mell deserves it. If Evan Moe Mell makes the All-Star game over Tyrese Halliburton, I'm getting very disrespectful on this podcast. Wow.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Look at those stats, bro. Because what are you basing it all for? I know y'all be texting y'all buddies and shit, but. Hey, Jelar. Throw that shit, man. But look atelal. Throw that shit, man. But look at the stats, man. Oh, man, that's his name. He better not make it.
Starting point is 00:47:48 Hey, Tyrese, they got you fucked up. I know this ain't the podcast, but they got you fucked up, my nigga. 35 of 14. We smacked the niggas every time.
Starting point is 00:47:55 What the Bucs have? They two and what? We not talking about them. They sad. But y'all just gonna make it regardless. Most definitely. Dame gonna make it regardless.
Starting point is 00:48:03 If the Bucs are 2-25 and Dame gets lost, I'm sorry. I don't think Dame is going to make it if they don't get their record right, though. But he keep playing way better than Tyrese right now. Most definitely. Play better. Because I got two wins. Speaking of play better.
Starting point is 00:48:15 That boy be trying to get off the bases. No, we good. That's a real conversation. We can talk about it. That boy work for the bases, boy. We can talk about it. That boy work for the bases. That's a real conversation, though.
Starting point is 00:48:25 If Tyrese is... I didn't know he was averaging that. And he's shooting horrible. No, he's had four horrible games this year. That's why I said him still having that stats after playing that bad, I'm not worried about it. He's going to get the stats.
Starting point is 00:48:36 And it's crazy as we injured right now, so Rick has no choice but to play Benedict Mather. And so now it's like... That's crazy. That's the... That's the nasty part about it. It took everybody to be injured for him
Starting point is 00:48:46 to have to play him and he scores 30 that's a terrible organization nah the organization ain't bad it's just bad yeah not the organization nah everybody
