Starting point is 00:03:30 I'm the host. My name is DJ Wells with my esteemed co-host. I'm a guy. Be here with me. I got T with me. Tell me, all right. How y'all doing this morning? Chilling, brother.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Good, good, good, good. All right, man. You know what the show is about. Keep you up to date. Everything happening in the sports world, especially basketball. We're going to start off something that impacts, you know what I'm this show is about. Keep you up to date. Everything happening in the sports world, especially basketball. We're going to start off something that impacts, you know what I'm saying, the world.
Starting point is 00:03:48 It starts off here locally, man. The Colts made a decision yesterday to bench Anthony Richardson for Joe Flacco. Man. Obviously, with us being in Indianapolis, we know how the media has been treating Anthony Richardson and the Colts season so far. But did you expect for it to get this far? Yep.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Pretty much. Once he said he was tired in the third quarter, I pretty much knew it was over with. That's tough because I understand that that's really wild, and we talked about how crazy that is to take place, but for them to bench him, especially when you have a very, very important
Starting point is 00:04:23 game coming up, a National Televised game with, you know what I'm saying, the Minnesota Vikings, for your franchise to be a straight in that light, the next major play, you want to go with Joe Flacco? Yeah, bro, we don't have no choice. Who else are we going to go with? Bring Flacky to the table, bro. We want Baltimore Ravens, Flacky. Well, my problem is this. Now you have to look at the organization for questions before we really put all this hate and blame on Anthony Richardson because if you get a quarterback where they got a quarterback in the draft, he was pretty much unproven in college. You knew he was a working project.
Starting point is 00:04:54 He hasn't played a full season yet. If you want him to get good, you have to let him play. No, I mean, let him work. I thought you were just saying, like, you going to go with Joe Flacco? I mean, shit, if we bench him, that's who we got to go with. I mean, most definitely. I think you should give him a chance, of course. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:05:11 Just let him rock out the rest of the season, really. Yeah, I really not like that, for real. I'm not about to bring a Super Bowl here this year. Just let him work the kinks out if he can, because he's not going to get better on the sideline to me. I ain't a football player, but I think you need reps in order to. You know what I mean? He need reps, and I'm not saying I like Anthony Richardson.
Starting point is 00:05:29 I think he a cool guy. But I don't know if the quarterback position is like him right now. I think he need to learn a little more. I know he set out the whole year last year, but he need a little more time. Like you said, he ain't have much. He ain't play much at Florida. And his time at Florida, he played well, but he didn't throw the ball great at Florida.
Starting point is 00:05:54 Now, he threw the ball far, but he ain't throw it great. And right now, I think he just need a little more time to develop. And, I mean, you get better by playing, but he might get better by watching. I Flacco every time he plays seem to play well yeah and that's the thing um you know the coast especially since the luck era have had a history of getting older quarterbacks um having not say successful seasons but the season there's borderline playoffs or right there on the cusp of it but at the same time we talk about other different situations it's like mediocrity consistently so get AR, so you hope to develop a quarterback.
Starting point is 00:06:26 But like you said, if he's not playing, how does he get better? You look at some of the greats, even Peyton Manning, one of the worst rookie QB seasons you've ever seen. Right. You look at early with my guy up in Buffalo. Dang, not as well on the blank right now. But if you look at him. Josh Allen?
Starting point is 00:06:42 Yeah, Josh Allen. He had a terrible rookie season. And I'll just say this the same because it's his second season, but from a game play standpoint, man, he can figure it out. But at the end of the day, even if he plays and he's terrible, you still get a better pick. It's not like they're contending, like you said. So I'm confused by this.
Starting point is 00:06:57 I think that a lot needs to go into the organization to look in the mirror for some situations. Shane Stockton has not been the best. This is what you're supposed to be doing. It's supposed to be the QB whisperer. Okay, we'll get to it. The GM, Ballard, has been under the hot seat because a lot of things in the offseason did not get addressed.
Starting point is 00:07:12 And also, listen, if you're doing this situation so you can save your job, that's unfair to him. Yeah, thanks. But that's the name of the business, most definitely. Exactly. And I'm like, the Colts is the best team. You know what I mean? Work on your game, bro.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Work on your game. I'm going to save myself before I save you, my my boy and that's the crazy part about it it's like i mean that's most businesses in general and especially in the name of sports you know those positions they want to keep their job so of course they're gonna do whatever they got to do to have a good resume have a good report but man that's really kind of unfair to him especially you know him being a minority quarterback you look at a lot of those guys. Man, look at Bryce Young. Bryce Young, year two, in a terrible situation. Everybody's calling him damaged goods.
Starting point is 00:07:51 He's not going to get that chance to be, okay, if it doesn't work out, he can be a two-year backup. You also got to, you know, we not with him every day. We don't know what he's doing. We don't know how he prepares. Touche. So he might not prepare the way they think he should. And when he goes out, he doesn't produce when he goes out there.
Starting point is 00:08:06 So maybe they like, man, he's not preparing. So it may be the same for him. So they need to go in a different direction. And that's the difference between him and Bryce Young. When Bryce Young is out there, he produces. They don't know who to play. Bryce Young is having a better season than Anthony Richardson. Ooh, wow, that's tough. I would want either one of those seasons, to be completely honest.
Starting point is 00:08:25 Yeah, man. He ain't. The thing about AR is, like we said, he can throw the ball really, really far. When they have those opportunities, and also injury has played. They didn't have Johnson Taylor for a while. You got to kind of let, you just have to deal with it, man. I think that any of that has been spoiled. You went from Peyton Manning to Andrew Luck.
Starting point is 00:08:41 That doesn't happen much. I know the last couple of years have been old QBs on their way out the league, but this is what it takes, man. Sometimes you got to deal with it. Yeah. I mean, he need an opportunity to, like, try to get better or whatever. You got to play to get better. But I'm saying it got to be something else.
Starting point is 00:08:55 It got to be something that he's not doing off the field. Like, he might not be preparing right. That's all I'm saying. If he's saying he's tired, then it got to be something else, bro. Yeah. I was going to say, to be real, the whole I'm tired on third down, I know people was like, everybody gets tired, but that's still crazy. And given the circumstances of which how he's been playing and the magnitude of that game yesterday, I don't want to hear that.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Yeah, I'm telling y'all, it's about what he's doing off the field, the way he's preparing. They're like, man, he just don't get it. Because you just, obviously the coach, they're not playing for nothing. I mean, they could be, but they're probably not going to be playing for nothing. And you got to work with him. You picked him that high. You got to.
Starting point is 00:09:35 It's something else, bro. It's like, nah, he's just not getting it. We got to show him that we not playing. He either going to lock in, and if he don't, we going to play flat. And obviously that's what happened. And it's always bad. Cause if you watch the coast games, as soon as something bad happens on offense, they pan straight to Joe Flacco.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Like they did. It was like they did Taylor at the Kansas city games. As soon as something went bad, Joe Flacco, I was like, oh, they ain't painting the narrative. Regardless of how we feel about it, they pushing this agenda and apparently it has worked. I don't know if that coming on third down was like, oh, they ain't painting the narrative. Regardless of how we feel about it, they pushing this agenda. And apparently it has worked. I don't know if that coming on third down was like a little pow-pow, like as a reprimand for it.
Starting point is 00:10:09 But it's crazy, man. Get Wilson on the coast. So will it. Yeah. We'll see. Hey, niggas, we cast the boys out. Hey, the NFL different, bro. It's not like the NBA.
Starting point is 00:10:20 You have two bad games in that field. It's a conversation. You have a couple in a row. They going to want you to get your up out of there bro I'm a Falcons fan oh here we go Curt T Yankees man
Starting point is 00:10:29 got they get back 11-4 they trying to you know stay alive that's a money grab let's keep this thing rolling as long as we can man
Starting point is 00:10:37 that's all watching that game last night it was like the Dodgers they had some of their best relievers that they could have put in
Starting point is 00:10:44 they just like nah we gonna wait like kind of like have put in. They're just like, nah, we're going to wait. Kind of like Boston did with the Mavs. Like, ah, we're going to give you all that game. That go crazy. Is there too much energy? Y'all got it. We'll catch y'all next time around. It's going seven, though.
Starting point is 00:10:56 Excuse me? It's going seven. You think that the Yankees have a chance to make this series something? Watch. Watch. Watch what? They're going to come back. The Yankees want to win another game. DraftKings handshake something? Watch. Watch. Watch what? They're going to come back. The Yankees want to win another game.
Starting point is 00:11:07 DraftKings handshake here? Watch. It could be a DraftKings. Whatever you want to do. I ain't betting. I'm just letting y'all see. All right, because I'm undefeated on this show. I know it was good for TV.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Really? He's undefeated on this show, except for the parlays. Oh, me. I'm talking about my co-hosties. I know it was good for TV, man. They definitely going seven. For sure. I wanted to ask you about this.
Starting point is 00:11:34 It's crazy because the World Series, they be having games back to back to back. How would that be if that happened in the NBA? I know that's probably unlikely because of recovery time and stuff like that, but I think that the way that you lose to a team and you come back and you can get your revenge the next day instead of having to sit in the stool. I know that's probably unlikely because of recovery time and stuff like that, but I think that the way that you lose to a team and you come back and you can get your revenge the next day instead of
Starting point is 00:11:48 having to sit and stew and think about it, I think that's fire. Yeah, I think it'll be bad basketball. It would be too tired. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:11:55 Maybe a lot of... I mean, everybody get an opportunity to play, I'll tell you that, but it'd probably be a lot of injuries. I could definitely say that, but I just think
Starting point is 00:12:02 if they ever was to do it in the finals, obviously we know the money and everything else behind it is the reason why it won't. But just from a standpoint of them, because they'd be having two or three days because you want to see their best at their best. Yeah, facts. But just the fact that you can get back in 24 hours? Nah, that'd be dope.
Starting point is 00:12:16 I think that's how everybody wishes you could play basketball. But obviously, it's too hard. Games too long, too many games. Bodies be broken down. It'll never happen. Yeah, that's Too many games. Bodies be broken down. Wouldn't ever happen. Yeah, that's crazy. Tristan Bale at the NCAA tournament, man.
Starting point is 00:12:29 That would be insane for sure. Listen, we've seen the first season starting five on Netflix. We got the new roster coming up. We got KD, SGA, James Harden, Halliburton, and Jalen Brown. How y'all feel about that cast? Weak. Dang. You ain't feeling that?
Starting point is 00:12:44 Oh, take my suggestions. Who y'all start with? Talk about a five, bro. Talk to him. Ant. Pablo. week. Dang, you ain't feeling that? Oh, take my suggestions. Who you gonna talk about? Talk to him. Aunt, Pablo, Jai. And I already did it. Bring you back. Yeah, what do you mean? You see this type of freestyles?
Starting point is 00:13:00 This ain't power. We ain't getting boys out of there. Bring me back. I'm the star of the show. What I say, Pablo, Aunt, Jai, you gotta't getting boys out of there. Bring me back. I'm going to start the show. What'd I say? Pablo and Jai, you got to bring, what's my boy from the Washington Wizards? Number three. Jordan Poole. Spice it up. Turn me up with a Sousa.
Starting point is 00:13:14 I guess Halliburton. Y'all put a mixed breed on there. Nah, I'm cool. I like this. People was talking about when they saw this, like, dang, we wish this was James Harden in Houston. Yeah, now that would've been lit. But James Harden in LA ain't bad either, though.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Most definitely not. He ain't gonna do nothing on TV, though. I think the only person that's really gonna show who they are is Ant. On this one, I could definitely see
Starting point is 00:13:36 Tyrese doing it. KD, you'll get a decent glimpse of KD just because he's a little bit older. KD can do whatever now. He's years. I'm gonna think I'm showing blonde
Starting point is 00:13:45 for us, like, smoking. Yeah, I was going to say, that's going to be... That's tough. That'd be hard,
Starting point is 00:13:50 though. We don't encourage it, but for the viewers, for the entertainment purposes. If it's legal, y'all stay, go crazy.
Starting point is 00:13:56 I mean, he spoke about it on big platforms already. Yeah, roll up on a new bus, bro. Give us something, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Like, we know y'all hoop, bro. I think this is for people to see that y'all are human beings, normal human beings, bro. You know what I mean? We cool watching you with your family, stuff like that, bro. But I think it's fire because, like you said, we get a glimpse of everybody that's really human.
Starting point is 00:14:18 It's like, okay, we get caught up in being fans in a situation. It's like, all right, it's possible for you to have a bad day on your way to work like everybody else. Because people are like, for y'all, they don't care what y'all got going on. Hey, it's possible for you to have a bad day on your way to work like everybody else. Because people like for y'all, they don't care what y'all got going on. Hey, bro, I need you to cover
Starting point is 00:14:28 this part later, bro. I don't care how bad your drive was to work. They talk bad to you too. So it's cool to see these other side of people, man. Like I want to see SGA. I don't know him much.
Starting point is 00:14:38 I mean, I played against him, but don't know him. But to see probably how he work or how he go about his day, preparing to get 30 on everybody,
Starting point is 00:14:46 that's going to be cool yeah like you said it's a chance for them to get introduced to a different audience people randomly scrolling on Netflix are really tapping in with these people
Starting point is 00:14:52 and like really like the brand because like you said everybody hoops but you don't see what everybody puts into the game and some people the way that they put
Starting point is 00:14:58 their game together is really admirable yeah in fact we know Jalen Brown going to be on there it's serious that's corporate nah see Jalen Brown
Starting point is 00:15:04 might get on there and really talk crazy he done got the. Nah, see, Jalen Brown might get on there and really talk crazy. He done got the bag. He done got the chip. He might really get on there. You see how he was with Stephen A? I guess I got to be with Nike
Starting point is 00:15:12 to be on Team USA. He might really get on there and pop some shit. I mean, he already doing a lot. He had a birthday party, so I'm sure that's going to be on there with Lil Baby and everybody being there.
Starting point is 00:15:20 So that might be a cool sight to see. Barack Obama, bro. He going presidential on it? Yeah. Which ain't bad. I'm just saying, I know you ain't going to see. Barack Obama, bro. He going presidential all the time. Yeah. Which ain't bad. I'm just saying, I know you ain't going to probably get that much from him. I ain't going to lie, but that's him every day.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Like, who's that when we play for Boston? He joke and stuff, obviously, but pretty serious dude. I ain't going to lie. I think SGA is the most surprising that people are waiting for on that list. Yeah, he might really surprise people how he is. That's why I'll be interested in him. Watching his story.

Starting point is 00:25:15 In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir? No. No one was let go. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
Starting point is 00:25:35 I'm going to ask Attorney General. I'm Leon Nafak, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco,
Starting point is 00:26:10 Iran Contra, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What did the jazz have to do with it? Call that nigga D-Rose. That's what Kendrick
Starting point is 00:26:21 called him in the song. The more the roses, don't do it. I'm like, damn, I'm not taking a return. We ain't doing that. That's what he called him in the song, y'all. Bro, DeMar DeRozan. I was like, damn, I'm about to hit return. We ain't doing that. That's what he called him in the song, bro. DeMar DeRozan, I don't give a damn about that song. My boy been killing. Four games in, a dub, plus every night.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Oh, yeah, you know what he going to do, man? He going to get to it. My boy might be the verified bucket. The professional scorer, bro. Yeah. He getting buckets. Now, the Jazz, they have a lot of pieces that other teams are looking forward to having on their team. I don't know what they're going to do right now, but definitely Cooper Flagg sweepstakes for them as well.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Oh, yeah. He fit right in. Oh, yeah. New balance deal in Utah. They going platinum. There might be some home cooking right there. Please don't go there. Listen, man, we got the Western Conference Finals rematch last night.
Starting point is 00:27:01 The Mavs and the T-Wolves, 121-14 Mavs. Man, listen, that was a crazy game from the start, man. Anthony Edwards, 24 points in the first quarter. I thought it was already over there. Yeah, for him to only end up with 37, I thought he was going for 50. But, you know. Who locked him up?
Starting point is 00:27:17 The Mavs, nobody, bro. We was just shooting bad. Don't do that. The Mavs just turned it up, though. In particular, Kyrie. Kyrie was on that all night last night. Kyrie boy, he's special. He unguardable.
Starting point is 00:27:29 As we all know. But yeah, that's it for Klay. Klay took the night off yesterday. I think he only had like seven points. Yeah, he didn't have the best game, but you talked about it lively, but also I got to show some of the damn Gaffer. That tandem at the four and five system
Starting point is 00:27:42 when they play together, bro, is a really, really tough team to deal with, man. Nah, them two big athletic guards. I mean, bigs, they're super athletic, get rebounds, run around, try to change shots at the rim. So they got a special dynamic with them too, man. I mean, that's the way the league is going. A lot of threats and guys that can guard on the perimeter as big.
Starting point is 00:28:00 So they figured it out. Definitely, man. A lot of people, you know what I'm saying, figured they might be close in the contention to West again. Where they looking? Listen, Luka had 24 last night,
Starting point is 00:28:09 almost a triple-double, but he still really kind of had an off night. I mean, he hit a hell of a shot, you know what I'm saying, to secure the game. That was a nasty step back from Denver half-court.
Starting point is 00:28:18 But he didn't have the best night. We know Kyrie can carry you there, but man, if they get one more piece, I think they are a piece away from being a championship team. They got it now to me. You think so?
Starting point is 00:28:30 I think they need one more player off the bench that can kind of give them the points when they haven't got somebody like a six-man type situation. You can just give them the ball and get points because, you know, when you get to the East, if they play a Celtics team, they're going to need another wing who's capable. Yeah. But other than that, I mean, yeah, of course, obviously they got to the Western Conference last year and then added Klay.
Starting point is 00:28:47 I kind of like how Luka is playing, though. I mean, obviously he's having some off games, but he kind of letting everybody rock. He not like being as ball dominant like he used to be. He letting Kyrie do his thing. He getting Klay shots. He kind of playing like a real point guard right now. His shot not falling like that,
Starting point is 00:29:04 but we know how explosive he can be when it comes to scoring the ball. For sure, man. Even yesterday with Julius Randle, 27-7.
Starting point is 00:29:11 That's light. Being aggressive, you know what I'm saying, while A was still killing. And I think, like you said, I see the chemistry building
Starting point is 00:29:16 with him for sure, man, especially on the court. I just like that energy together. Yeah, bro. Shaq and Kobe, we good.
Starting point is 00:29:21 We good, bro. It ain't nothing to harp on. We gonna move on to the next game, bro. I don, bro. It ain't nothing to harp on. We gonna move on to the next game, bro. I don't think that team ain't gonna get it. That team ain't gonna do what? They gonna be playing. This is probably the most disrespectful.
Starting point is 00:29:39 See, I'm trying to stay Stephen A. And, you know, that's very disrespectful, bro. Just saying playing. What's that record right now know, that's very disrespectful, bro. Just like playing. What's that record right now? You're not being real, bro. It's 500 right now, early in the season, though. It's four games.
Starting point is 00:29:51 You can play 100 games. Playing is crazy. Telling you, bro. All right, make sure y'all clip this up. That's pure foolishness. That's for the futures. Man, bro.
Starting point is 00:30:01 What's that? Who played next? What the f... That's crazy. Hey, Midwood Warriors beat the Pelicans last night f- That's crazy. Hey, Middle Warriors. Beat the Pelicans last night, 124-106. Listen, Steph didn't play last night,
Starting point is 00:30:09 but it didn't matter because Bahamas version of Steph played last night. My boy Buddy Hill had 28, 7 from 11 for 3. That's what I'm saying. I said Buddy Hill gonna go crazy. Hey, and we gonna talk about him
Starting point is 00:30:19 in the next segment, too. In true Buddy Hill fashion, he had one assist, baby. I love it. We don't swing that. He said he feel like he back in Oklahoma. That's what he said, he had one assist, baby. I love it. We don't swing that. He said he feel like he back in Oklahoma. That's what he said.
Starting point is 00:30:28 He had the Oklahoma team with him. He had his college teammates back. There's nobody playing. Yeah, it was real tough last night. And listen,
Starting point is 00:30:36 before we even get to the game, let's talk about Kaminga, man. His situation, you know what I'm saying, they did not get the extension on the fourth year. It's happened before, but it was kind of like,
Starting point is 00:30:43 we're kind of surprised that it didn't work out for a rookie extension. And then for him to get benched last night, where you don't have Steph Orwig, was really alarming. He smoked the bag, man. Dang, you think so? It's off of it, man. Like, you ain't going to get as much money as you thought.
Starting point is 00:31:00 You're definitely not getting no max deal. And then they'll get, like, we probably turn down four years, five years, 125 to 150 or something. He probably turned that down. It's over with. Yeah, that's tough. Like you said, that rookie deal, you got to lock that in. You got to lock it in, bro.
Starting point is 00:31:18 And he with a coach who's staying on business. This is the man who benched Jason Tatum in the Olympics, bro. You think he care about staying on business with you? Yeah, bro. Everybody in Jason Tatum in the Olympics, bro. You think he care about standing up business with you? Yeah, bro. Everybody in Africa rolling around in their grave, bro. But he wasn't that proven anyway. Like, he got potential to be good, but he ain't really do nothing. Yeah, that's my thing.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Like you said, the opportunity was there, Tony Simp, but you haven't done anything that made them, like, be head over heels happy, especially the organization that has had greats at that position for so long. Yeah, you got to really be good. Because we talk about him at the beginning of the year, C. Percy said, this is probably the deepest team I've had. And we all said, yeah, that's some bullshit. Bless you.
Starting point is 00:31:53 But then you look, you got Lindy Waters yesterday coming off of bench 21A. People probably don't know who he is, but if you get production like that from guys, you got to credit the system. And right now, it's like, you ain't bigger than the system. And he not, I ain't going to lie, he got potential, but. Most definitely. I just don't, I never seen him really, really, really kill.
Starting point is 00:32:12 Like, I haven't been like, oh, like Jalen Johnson, I seen him kill. I'm like, man, he going to be all right. Like, Kaminga, I just be like, hmm. Yeah, he ain't had them Jordan Poole moments. Yeah, he definitely ain't had no Jordan Poole moments. No, no, no. He ain't had those. Hmm, all right. I mean, he ain't had them Jordan Poole moments. Yeah, he definitely ain't had no Jordan Poole moments. No, no, no. He ain't had those. All right.
Starting point is 00:32:27 I mean, he must be good. I mean, he can be good. That's on the deal, bro. Do you feel like he could benefit from being on a different team in a different situation? Nah, I mean, you in the perfect situation. You playing with a – he can't really shoot the ball like that. He's not a shooter.
Starting point is 00:32:42 But you was around a whole bunch of shooting, and you a dynamic wing, supposedly, that's perfect for you. The lane going to be open. You can use your athleticism to get to the bucket. They're not helping off Steph. Draymond, the best screener. He don't even want to shoot. Hell of a solitaire.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Yeah, my thing is, too, like, it's about to be your team. You're about to have the keys to the city. Well, you was if you'd have signed the bag, but I'm saying everybody about to slide, bro. You was going to be straight. Yeah, but I don't even think that. Because he said, I need money like Kawhi Leonard. That's what blew me.
Starting point is 00:33:16 I mean, also, you got to sell yourself, but those are some tough comparisons. He put himself to Kawhi Leonard and Pascal. Two champions who were proven to average basically 20 until they first started the league put himself to Kawhi Leonard and Pascal. Two champions who were proven to average basically 20 until they first started the league, except for Kawhi due to the situation. That's a bad place to put yourself in a comparison.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Yeah, I'm asleep on that. He averaged last year like 12, 13. He actually had a decent game yesterday, though. You know what I mean? Yeah, off the bench for sure. He was straight. Come on, bro. If you're moving to the bench when people are out, that's a different conversation, man. But we got to show love to the Pelicans, too.
Starting point is 00:33:47 You know what I'm saying? Zion, B.I., they both had 30 last night. They can't lose that game, though. Can't. Can't. Not with Steph. And they was up 20. That's the important part that we didn't talk about.
Starting point is 00:33:56 They were up 20. The Warriors were down 20. Yeah, but C.J. McCollum had a bad game yesterday, too. They really needed him. Him only having five points was kind of crazy for them. Yeah, that's out of pocket. Especially if you already got a 20-point lead and smoking that. No Steph, no.
Starting point is 00:34:12 He been on pace to average another dub for the year. So, for him to have five points yesterday. And he wasn't aggressive offensively yesterday. I mean, when two people got it rolling, though, it's kind of tough. That 30 ball? Yeah, when two people got 30, you might be the's kind of tough. That 30 ball? Yeah, when two people got 30, you might be the oddball out sometimes,
Starting point is 00:34:28 but five is crazy. Yeah. For him, yeah. Five is bad if it's a terrible, I mean, five ain't ever really acceptable, but five is bad when you have that type of shooting percentage
Starting point is 00:34:35 as well, I understand. Yeah. So, listen, we got a lot of matchups coming up tonight. First game, Spurs, you know what I'm saying? The two-beat game of the day. The Raptors versus Hornets.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Who y'all rolling with? Hornets by 30. By 30? Yeah. He said the two-beat game of the day. The Raptors versus Hornets. Who y'all rolling with? Hornets by 30. By 30? Yeah.

For you to think that the Pistons' problem is that they are wearing different bags of clothes like it's the old dress code. They have a lot more issues than what they're wearing, dog. Let them young boys rock.

Yeah, he got two at least.
Starting point is 00:42:35 He's done after. Yeah. That's crazy. But, I mean, what's so crazy about it is he could re-up again if he felt like it. But, man, he not. I mean, what are you on, like a $300 million deal? Yeah, he's on a...
Starting point is 00:42:45 I agree with Jeff because he's accomplished everything. I done won everything in this league. So I'm going to go back to Serbia and turn up, bro. Yeah. All the horses in that country, bro. I got half a bill. Yeah, I'm straight. I don't know the cost of living what over there in Serbia is, but...
Starting point is 00:43:00 Huh? He just last year in the NBA. That's crazy. 228. Honestly, we'll have another conversation if he gets close to another ring or if he gets another one, but that would be fire. To get two like that 10, 11 years in and dip out, that's easy. 2028, he leaving, bro.
Starting point is 00:43:16 I'm automatically Hall of Fame. Y'all got to put me in there. He Hall of Fame now. He one of the best centers ever to play the game today. 2028, he's done. There ain't nothing else to do. For sure. Also, we forgot this. We got to show my man some love. Travis Hunter, man.
Starting point is 00:43:28 Verified bucket. You get an offensive player and defensive player of the week is fire. Historic stuff. Legendary two-way player, bro. That's hard. That's fire, man. Now, a lot of people have been catching flack for him saying once he gets to the NFL that he's not going to be able to do both of those things. He's definitely not.
Starting point is 00:43:44 I think he has to be a special type player, like a special package of a road. He cannot consistently play both. No. Because that's not realistic in the NFL. Not every day like he do now. He might have a package where he play offense. Mm-hmm. And that's normal.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Yeah. Yeah, that's normal for those type of athletes, so I get it. Yeah, bro, that's a lot to ask everybody. He's young. He could do it for a couple years. No, that's ridiculous. In the NFL, they're not going to risk him getting murdered as a number one pick playing both sides of the...
Starting point is 00:44:09 Just give him Heisman, though. He didn't stamp Heisman. It's over. I'm still going with the boy from Boise State. Nah, bro. He's nice. I think you got to look a little bit further down for this Heisman conversation just because
Starting point is 00:44:18 some of them tougher games you're hearing, those will really be the deciding factors. They take everything into account in getting those awards, too. It ain't just off the stats. Team accomplishment, they definitely look into that as well. And I got to give Colorado their respect.
Starting point is 00:44:30 I always hate on Colorado. I mean, they been... Six and two, baby. Bow bound. They doing their thing, bro. They doing their thing. I respect. I ain't a fan.
Starting point is 00:44:39 I don't mind. See how niggas so love, man. I'm going to just give Colorado their respect. You know what I mean? Don't say it at all, bro. That energy is trash, man. I'm going to just give Colorado their respect. You know what I mean? Don't say it at all, bro. That energy is trash, bro. Say what real?
Starting point is 00:44:51 Yeah, that's not authentic, bro. They conference his ass. I know, bro. Talk about him. Why you talking about the books, bro? Turn up. Put a little bass in your voice, bro. They conference his ass, bro. They don't play nobody.
Starting point is 00:45:00 That's the real. That's the real. They don't play nobody. Mike didn't adjust his mic or nothing if they play somebody they play somebody they ain't played a top 10 team yet

You've been on pace. You've been scoring 20-plus these previous nights. You know what I mean? At least get – he done got up 15 to 20 shots a game.
Starting point is 00:45:56 So, for you to only take like five or six, I ain't rolling. We at least need 12. Yeah, that's – like you said, with both of them having to roll it last night, it is kind of hard to, you know what I'm saying, get adjusted to the game. But, come on, man. We need more from you, bro. Yeah. And that's one person said with both of them having a roller last night it's kind of hard to get adjusted to the game but come on man we need more from you bro and that's one person
