But listen, man, some great basketball took place yesterday.
Winby and the Spurs took care of the Lakers yesterday.
Belt to ass situation.
1-26-104.
Winby went crazy 23-85.
Devin Vassell was killing yesterday as well. He had 23-6. AD
went crazy with 30-13.
Bron only took 11 field goal attempts yesterday
and still had 18-5-8.
What's this game say more about
the Lakers or the Spurs yesterday?
I'm glad Winby went in there and
got his team to dub, but
the Lakers, them y'all boys.
They're going through a lot right now, man.
Yeah.
So far as what?
I mean, the concept of what's going on.
Them playing a home game, it's just crazy.
But yeah,
listen, they've been having a good run recently.
But I mean, they took it to hell yesterday.
I'm going to say more for the Spurs, man. That was a big win for them.
More than it was a big loss for the Lakers.
Wimby was killing yesterday.
CP was hooping yesterday.
I know we didn't talk about his stat line yesterday,
but he was dragging AR yesterday for sure.
Scratch all that.
I heard the parlay hit.
Yeah, the parlay.
You know what I mean?
Wimby sold us, but everybody that took 20 shots, y'all, man,
I got another one for y'all today.
But we had like six six seven people that hit yesterday
so that's the first
let's get a round
of applause for him
first his first
his first
shout out to
hey if you hit
yesterday pause
make sure you send it
to us so we can
repost it I know
a lot of people
saved on the
wimpy points yesterday
you know say
remix it but
shit shout out to
them they came up
yesterday man
first parlay to hit
shout out to my
dogs man it didn't
take us a year man
we're here now. She finally out the
house. The first crash out.
That was a gate. We thought it was going to be for Christmas,
but Valentine's Day is around
the corner, so your buddy should leave it
anyway.
Going to a Valentine's Day gift.
Shout out to y'all, though, for sure.
I can't wait to see the one today. Since my boy came through,
he's about to go crazy. It's an
80,000.
No, we're keeping it light.
We're going to keep it smooth all week.
Okay, my bad.
Everything under 10.
Okay, my fault.
My fault.
For sure.
Listen, man.
Wimby's incredible, man.
This Spurs team, we talked about them.
Like, they were down there sad.
But listen, some of these young players are starting to get it together, man.
I think they could be a playoff team, man.
I think it's looking like that.
I know we was questioning on it.
Maybe playing Spurs. It's looking like it, bro. Go to theoff team, man. I think it's looking like that. I know we was questioning on it, maybe playing Spurs.
It's looking like it, bro.
Go to the standings, bro.
Yeah, I think they could be a play-in team.
They could be a play-in team, bro. They can get up there.
Look, what's it?
A game?
Yeah, but they're a game away.
Yeah, they definitely could be a play-in team.
Yeah, two-game win streak for being an AFC.
We just talked about it.
Timberwolves was down there, borderline, mediocre all year.
Look where they at.
Kings went on the seven-game win streak, and they ninth place.
I love Wimby, y'all.
But I can't let y'all
do that today, bro.
Not today.
They can make the play in.
Not this morning, bro.
They can make the play in
for sure.
Playing 19-19
they right there
with the Suns.
You ain't going?
Good win.
Good win, though.
I mean, despite what,
you know, L.A. going through,
I get that.
But that's a good win
for Wimby and them.
Because people really,
we probably thought they would win less than 19
for the whole season.
So, for them to be, you know what I mean, cracking even right now,
halfway through the year is cool.
I like the Spurs.
I see what they're doing with the young guys.
I mean, CP is still being CP, making these young guys believe in themselves
and having a great year.
I think they could be a play-in team.
I don't know how long this lasts for the Kings.
You know what I mean?
They playing at a high level right now and playing well.
I don't know if this continues.
Hopefully it does because I'm a fan of Doug Christie
and what he got going on right now.
And De'Aaron Fox, one of my favorite players.
So hopefully they get in the playoffs,
but they got potential to make the play-in for sure.
Most definitely, man.
Lakers, you still asleep?
Quiet, bro. They a playoff team, though. Most definitely, man. Lakers, you still asleep? Quiet, bro.
They a playoff team, though.
The Lakers definitely
be in the playoffs.
Yeah, definitely
going to make the playoffs.
For ratings,
we need them there for sure.
Dang.
Let's go back to the Saints
one more time, please.
I mean, obviously,
it's a long way
before the season ends,
but today we're at the 70s,
so they have a play-in
against the Suns.
That'd be a hell of a
playing situation for sure.
Do y'all really want to see
the Lakers, though?
Like, in the playoffs?
I don't want to see LeBron
at 49 in the playoffs.
Fuck it, bro.
Let my boy in the playoffs.
It's only going to be
one of the last times.
Yeah, I mean,
I was just wondering, like,
do y'all really watch
the Lakers games?
I know it's a lot of
Lakers fans in the world.
Do y'all really watch them?
Like, I don't really watch anymore.
Hit or miss.
Yeah, like...
It depends on who they playing.
Yeah. But I'm always staying soon because it's important, obviously, for job't really watch anymore. Hit or miss. Yeah, like. It depends on who they playing. Yeah.
But I'm always staying
solo because it's
important obviously
for job purposes.
Yeah.
And leisure, nah.
I remember at one time
I used to just catch
all the Cavs games.
Like, I used to just
watch Bron.
Like, you know,
like, damn, Bron about
to play?
Let me see who they
about to play.
Yeah.
But now it's kind of
like, do I really
watch the Lakers?
Not really.
I do because we do
this, but like.
They're not an
exciting team. Nah, like, I don't get hyped to watch the Lakers. Not really. I do because we do this, but like... They're not an exciting team.
Nah, like I don't get
hyped to watch the Lakers.
Like when Anthony Edwards
comes on,
like I watch the Timberwolves.
I'm like,
he about to do something.
And last night,
he did something.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like...
I still even watch Steph.
Yeah, because...
Just because of Steph.
Yeah, Steph might have a moment.
Yeah, any given night,
Steph might go crazy.
I don't want this to turn
into no LeBron slander. I'm just saying that. Nah, he's just older. Yeah, he is. But moment. Yeah, any given night, Steph might go crazy. I don't want this to turn into no LeBron slander.
I'm just saying that.
Nah, he's just older.
But when he played the Warriors game on Christmas.
Yeah, LeBron's still going to show up when it's time.
Yeah, so if I know it's a big matchup, I know LeBron going to come to play
like he did against the Warriors.
But I don't know.
I was just asking a question.
No, I dig that for sure, man.
Big win for the Spurs for sure.
A great game yesterday.
Great, great game. Grizzlies Rock Spurs for sure. A great game yesterday. Great, great game.
Grizzlies Rockets
went crazy yesterday.
121-18.
Jalen Green.
These are the games
I watch.
Yeah.
Jalen Green took them
home yesterday.
42.
Tied his career high
yesterday.
Listen, man,
we talked about
Jabari being out
and man,
Thompson being hooping.
19-13.
He's become one of the
best rebounders in the NBA
on the lowest of keys.
John went crazy as well, 29.
Desmond Bay had 25.
Man, shout out to the Rockets.
Man, they overcame a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter,
and they went and took that game yesterday, man.
Jalen Green, we talked about somebody having to step up
and be a superstar for that team to get over the hump.
And it looked like he wants to take that role on.
We know he's been a star since high school.
We know he had a bunch of potential, but now
he's starting to pick it up a little bit. He was averaging
19 a couple weeks ago. We was talking about he got
to get over that 20-plus mark. Yes, sir.
Now he's at around 21, 42-point
career high, tying, whatever,
game last night. At a moment,
he's special, man. If he
can continue to play like he's playing,
and he's like the Thompson twin,
he's fitting into that role with Jabari being out, they got a high ceiling, man. I don't know if a lot of people want to see like he's playing. And he like the Thompson twin. He's fitting into that role with Jabari being out.
They got a high ceiling, man.
I don't know if a lot of people want to see them in the playoffs.
Nah, for sure, man.
And listen, even in the clutch, big shout out to my friend Van Fleet.
They got a solid team.
They have everything well coached.
They got young players.
They got seasoned vets.
They might be on to something behind.
I know you was a little sleepy on them.
Nah, I watched, you know, Fred Van Fleet, a couple threes down the stretch.
That was very, very key for the game.
They got a good court, bro. I just, y'all
was gassing them so much, bro.
It ain't really no gas now.
A little torch on y'all for that, bro. That's it.
You know what I'm saying? They a good team, bro.
Y'all just like they was the new up and coming.
You know what I mean? Lakers or something.
They not, though, bro.
You know why I like them? Because they got like this
excuse my French, like this
I don't give a fuck type attitude.
They don't really care. Because they don't got shit to lose.
Yeah, but like all the young guys
is out to prove something. I know a lot of them
hurt right now or whatever, but
they got this I don't give a fuck that I like.
And it's like...
I just think they need probably another star over there.
I don't think they do.
I'm a Thompson twin, but
I think he's a star.
Yeah, for sure. I just think Jalen needs just
somebody else. He got a good core
around him, but they need
a... I don't know, bro.
I think they do it organically,
like the Cavs did.
They got Donovan Mitchell,
but I think Jalen Green got the potential
to be a Donovan Mitchell.
Yeah, but who is this Darius Garland, though?
That's big.
I mean, they got Fred VanVleet.
He's a solid guard.
And then you still got Reed Shepard
and these young guys that not even getting a chance.
Reed, yeah. Reed is on the way.
Yeah, they ain't got a chance.
Cam Whitmore just now getting minutes back again.
Cam starting to play again.
They still got Tari Eason.
They still got a bunch of young players.
And you can still trade and get a Darius Garland-type guy
if you really wanted it.
Like, you could trade.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm just saying, like, when Donovan Mitchell's been having issues
scoring lately, but they still been holding the four down.
He's been picking up the slack.
He's probably been picking up the slack.
I don't know who replaces Jalen Green on that team
to give me something consistently.
Because Donovan Mitchell been on the slump
probably the last six, seven games.
Well, I think ideally, in my mind,
Jabari would be there, Evan Mobley.
Yeah.
But like you said, when you have,
the best thing about them,
they have a plethora of young talent.
They can use that and maybe a pick
and go get another piece.
Like you said, if they need a Robin
or if they need another superstar on the team. And I'm big on playing
what you got. You know what I'm saying? But I'm just saying
for them to really be competing with the top
teams out West, they can't fuck
with OKC.
They ain't got enough. You said they need more
firepower? Oh, they can't fuck
with OKC. I think they can, bro. I think
they can. I ain't gonna lie.
That'd be a hell of a series. I don't know that I would
I'm taking OKC, but that would, I don't think
it'd be a walk in the park.
They match up pretty good.
I'm saying OKC, they had
another year to gel.
This is really like the Rockets' first year.
You feel me? But OKC
kind of like a well-oiled machine right now.
They had success last year.
They added another piece to make them even
better with Hardenstein.
They got the formula over there, even better with Hardenstein. Yeah.
Like, they got the formula over there.
But they did it organically.
Everybody they got, they drafted.
Or they been there, then they just brought in one big piece with Hardenstein.
But everybody else was drafted.
And the Toy Joker is over there.
I love his game, too.
And Shea came in a trade.
But, you know, he was young when he got there.
Yeah.
I just think we blasted them, bro.
Pause. Yeah, y'all
probably beat him this year, but
they on their way. We got something brewing, man.
If they say... Shout out to Houston, man.
And we keep talking like Fred Van Fleet
old, though. No, I
fuck with Freddie V.
I fuck with Freddie V. He ain't
our age, so he is young.
30? Yeah.
I all respect, bro.
I'm just saying.
He got a good career.
Like, how you was like, DJ, talk about these weekends especially so much.
You got to like, all right, bro.
Now, that's how I felt like we're talking.
So now I'm a Rockets fan?
I don't know.
Fuck yeah.
I'm a Cavs and Rockets fan.
Cavs, Rockets in the finals.
Fuck.
I don't know who you are, Wallo.
You're worse than him.
Speaking of the other team in this game,
the Grizzlies smoked this game,

fourth quarter must see tv man the best basketball is better when john morant plays i'm rolling bro
like the nba is back when john morant plays. I'm rolling, bro. Like, the NBA is back when John Morant plays.
Like, you forget that foreigners run the league when John Morant plays.
You know what I mean?
Like, he's one of the Americans, a black American that makes the game exciting that you want to see him and Anthony Edwards.
They make it entertaining.
And a team like Memphis Grizzlies, who a small market team,
not too many people go to Memphis, but you want to see Memphis play.
Most definitely.
You know,
they come here,
they come to Indianapolis,
we going to the Grizzlies game.
Oh yeah,
you got Ja Morant,
you got to get that ticket.
Yeah,
you know what I mean?
So,
shout out to him,
man.
I know he went through
a whole bunch of injuries
and stuff.
It's good to see him
back on the floor.
Most definitely,
man.
Like you said,
the way that team plays
when Ja is activated,
it's different,
bro.
You got the rookies playing,
Jalen Wells been hooping. Zach Eady going
crazy as well. That's what Bang gonna do. He do best,
but just the impact he has on the floor, like you
said, he changes the whole culture.
Every time. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, man.
But get well soon, man. Y'all smoked that game.
We talked about Jalen Green, you know what I'm saying?
His draftee class. Hey, cutting him
with crazy as they took care of the Knicks
124-119. My boy had 36-4.
Yeah. All-star him. My boy had 36-4. Yeah.
All-star him.
Must definitely.
Has to happen.
Did I tell y'all to pick them boys yesterday?
You did pick them yesterday.
Malik Beasley went crazy.
He had 22.
Jalen Brunson hoop yesterday.
31-11, excuse me.
Cat had 26-12.
Mikel Bridges had 27.
Hey, man.
The fix was in.
It ain't even a question about is he All-Star now.
Is Cade Cunningham going to be All-NBA?
Can he make 13 in my NBA with these type of numbers?
He ain't mad at it.
24-7 in Dangmere 10?
Yeah, you ain't mad at it if he make 13.
He can make it.
Yeah.
You was big on a Cade Cunningham trying early, DJ.
I'm going to give you your props.
I've always been a fan of him.
I like this game. I didn't think he was better to early DJ him and give you props. I've always been a fan of him. I like this game.
I didn't think he was better than Trey Young and stuff like that.
But when I watch him play, he got that Luka kind of thing.
He uses his body well.
He's not fast.
He's strong.
He's a big guard.
But he know how to create space and use his body.
And he make the game look pretty easy.
When I watch him play, it reminds me of, like, Joe Johnson and those dudes.
It's like, man, it's super easy.
Like, he just bump you, lay up, bump you, step back.
How tall is he, like 6'7"? He's like 6'8".
Nah, he a little bit taller than you.
6'6".
Damn, when he was at the factory, that boy look like he was 6'8".
Yeah, he's 6'6".
That's probably no shoes.
And what's so crazy yesterday, bro, he was walking down really good defenders, bro.
Like, O.G. Inouye was in front of him yesterday,
and he didn't give a fuck.
Like, excuse me.
He's a big body guard, bro, with a lot of,
he got a lot of counters, too.
Like, you know, he nice, bro.
And listen, man, we talked about the Pistons last year
and what they're doing so far.
They attended their last 12.
They did not have that type of a run at all last year.
They won 21 games, way more than they won last year.
If it wasn't Kenny Atkinson, if it wasn't Mosley,
it would be J.B. Bickerstaff.
Most definitely, bro. Yeah.
You go 400
with this team, bro. Yeah.
Respect, bro. Nah, hell yeah.
I ain't got no smurf for the
Pistons. Plus Detroit up the street, y'all.
We love Detroit, man.
But listen, they had a great win yesterday
about these Knicks, though.
They've been dropping some games.
We don't expect them to lose.
You think they need to just lock back in
or they just going through some shit?
You can't win them all.
Niggas killed yesterday.
Your top three.
They need a break.
That's real shit.
They need a day off.
They need a break, bro.
They damn near play every day.
They play every day
the whole game.
We just talked about Jalen Brunson.
Come on, they need a break.
What was that, Jalen Brunson? Yeah, 39.
Michael Bridges, 37. OG, 38.
They need a break. I ain't being funny, bro.
Cash shouldn't be playing 43 right now, bro.
No, it's crazy.
Cash should be around 34, 36 minutes.
Yeah.
Yeah, that matters.
Yeah.
I'm telling you, the only thing that scared me about the Knicks,
I don't think they're going to make it to the playoffs, bro.
You keep saying that.
They're going to miss a piece, something just too much, man.
If they get there healthy
You feel like you can't play nobody else though
I feel them
I understand
I understand
But Phil used to tell me
Bruh you got
They ain't gonna give you their best effort
For 43 man
They gonna play their best about 32
I ain't believe them.
Damn.
People do just be out there stealing minutes.
And I ain't saying Cass stealing minutes or nobody stealing minutes,
but just give them a chance to – man, that's a lot of minutes.
Yeah, but then they sub in Jericho Sims and be like, yeah, I'm nothing.
Can't get swats back in the game.
Nah.
I understand.
Because Tibbs want to win every game.
Yeah.
That's hard, though. I feel you, Tibbs want to win every game. Yeah. That's hard, though.
I feel you, Tibbs.
So many games, bro.
Yeah, he's like, you're not going to win every game.
They need a break, man.
Hey, Knicks need some PTO out there working hard.
They the first team I say they need mandatory load management.
It's out of pocket, T.
And I love Tibbs, but they need mandatory load management.
Load management is crazy
he said
the whole starting five
can't play today
mandatory low management
these niggas work
for their contracts for sure
they be mad about
these athletes
but the niggas work for theirs
if you in a contract year
y'all might want to get
to New York
cause you gonna play
you'll get enough chance
to get your minutes
and points
so Jimmy take his
block ass
Jimmy you wanna get
a new deal boy try to fly your way to New York, boy. Bro, Jimmy take his black ass, dude. Jimmy, you won't get no deal, boy.
Try to find your way
to New York.
But that would be insane
if that happened.
If somehow Jimmy Butler
became a New York Knick
this season,
that would be crazy.
Nah, they trying to make
this court work.
If this team end up winning,
this is going to be
like some historical shit, bro.
Nah, they got a fire squad.
They do.
I'm just praying
they all get their health
to the playoffs.
If they get to the playoffs,
man, they got a chance
to win it, man.
They got a chance to win it.
Go to their bench.
Let me see how many minutes.
Did Cameron Payne play?
Yes, he did.
13 minutes.
Landry Sherman, four minutes.
No, it's McBride.
16.
So McBride, like, precious a chore.
He got to get to, like, 16, 18 minutes.
Landry Sherman should be around 16.
Matt Ryan. I thought, man, that nigga
ain't really precious.
Yes. Yeah, Cameron Pratt
gotta get up to about 18 to
19 minutes, man.
You know what I mean? Yeah, that's...
Give him a break, too. Just a little bit.
Just to the all-star break.
Yeah, man.
The league gonna love that. The day he said
all five of his starters,
they going to freak.
Not all of them
going to ever sit out,
but I'm just saying,
get the bench minutes
up a little more,
give them a chance.
I know you want to win
every game.
I know you.
I feel you.
Ain't nothing wrong with it,
but I just want y'all guys
to be healthy
to get to that playoffs
because I think y'all can win it.
Most definitely.
They all playing
with Gatorade cups.
They started off bad
this year, too. Yeah, he had to make up ground, but I think they can win y'all can win it. Most definitely. They all playing with Gatorade cups. They started off bad this year, too.
Yeah, he had to make up ground,
but I think they can win it
if they get there healthy.
Most definitely.
Shout out to the Pistons, man.
Solid win.
Your boy A.E. went crazy yesterday.
Had 41 with the win over the Wizards.
J.R. had 20 and 10.
Kuz had 22.
And Jordan Poole had 20 and 7.
A.E. been, you know what I'm saying?
Had a little bucket since he said
he tired that double team shit.
He been destroying everybody, bro.
But we be the team
that already lost 40 games.
So,
not too much to talk about.
Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
The six,
six and 32 is crazy.
The fact somebody lost
more games than the Cavs won,
it's crazy.
That is crazy.
Already, bro.
They're tanking for real.
I love that somebody put the question,
are the Wizards that bad or are they tanking?
The answer is yes.
The only answer is yes.
Nah, for real, bro.
But they are tanking, yes.
They one of the saddest teams ever.
Oh, nah.
They are, bro.
Yeah, they are.
They are, for real.
They worse than that Nets team?
Oh, they ain't lost.
The Cavs won't the Cavs won
30
Cavs won 34
35
oh damn
that's crazy
yeah
they got more wins
it's some nasty teams
y'all running
neck and neck
with Cavs
for wins and losses
that's crazy
they might be one
they gotta be in
the top 5 worst teams
you know what's crazy too
the fucked up thing
about it is
they can go ahead
and tank
and be number 1 and then the lottery
balls drop and they get two. They already tanked.
They probably get three. That's crazy.
The season is done.
I think one year the Nets won like 12 games.
So they on pace to beat
the Nets for sure. Wow.
Six wins is crazy. I remember at one point
I think the Nets started off like
0-18 or something like that. I remember
the Cavs team and Brian Noah, they off like 0-18 or something like that. I remember the Cavs team and Brown, they won like 17, 18 games.
When was Brown left?
Oh, when he was rookie year, they was super, super trash.
When that year, Brown left, they was bull.
They didn't get Kyrie.
They were.
No, that was.
Was it Anthony Bennett they got with that or Kyrie?
I don't know who.
Damn, the Bobcats in 2012?
That's really the Sixers
That's when Kimba
That's when Kimba
First got there
Damn no smug Kim
2016
Oh the 93 Mavericks

That New Jersey
Next team

Yeah, I think that's when Twan was there.
That's what, yeah, that was Twan at stake.
Yeah, they was in there bullshitting for sure.
Get well soon, man.
DC fans really die hard, too.
They shouldn't have to deal with that.
Warriors let us down yesterday, but not be here.
They took an L to the Raptors 104 to 101.
Steph came through for your boy.
He definitely had 26.
Wiggs had 20.
Scottie Barnes had 23, 8, and 6.
Warriors are struggling.
Lost four of the last five five they're not 500 or more
you get Draymond talking about some good teams
what's up man
what they gonna do
what they gonna do man
sometimes you gotta stay the course
stay the course
that's like telling
your nigga
hey bro
like it's your
relationship
do your thing
my nigga
I'm telling you
try to tell you
you know what I mean
but
that's how niggas
look too
they sit back
in their chair
you know man
that's what niggas do
I don't even know
what to say man
y'all know I got
I love Steph Curry
probably the coldest PG ever
yeah so
the Warriors are done
it's early y'all
it is early
I think they could make a run
they still got enough people that's capable to make a run.
They got Draymond Hall of Famer, Steph Hall of Famer, Wiggs,
an all-star player.
Yeah.
Trey's playing good.
They got enough people to make a run, but I just don't see it.
They was whooping shit at the beginning of the year.
I don't think they swear.
They was going crazy.
I don't know if they believe it, though.
Draymond was out yesterday.
He didn't play. But I don't know if they believe it, though. Draymond was out yesterday. He didn't play.
But I don't know if they believe it.
I don't know if they, like, think this is the group to do it.
Draymond, that's the homie.
You know, we love Draymond.
But if he is the factor between y'all beating the Raptors,
then, yeah, it's time to –
I mean –
Everybody got to go home.
Yeah, I mean, it is.
I mean, they're a team.
They not a great team.
Did you see Buddy Hill's shopper game yesterday?
Put it up.
I mean, that's what he's out there to do.
Yeah, put it up.
It's a struggle.
That's what I'm here.
But when Draymond's not playing, it's a different team.
But they have to make a trade if they want to make the play-in playoffs or whatever.
I know Dennis is pissed.
I was just fine where I was.
Y'all can't even got me for this bullshit.
Nah, he can't even got me, and now I'm not playing that Dray. And he's not playing awful I was just fine where I was. Y'all can't even got me for this bullshit. Nah,
he can't even got me
and now I'm not playing
that jerk.
And he's not playing awful,
but he's just not playing.
Like,
he was playing
before he got there.
Yeah,
bro,
y'all could've left me
where I was,
bro.
I was just fine.
Like,
last night he had a solid game,
but,
man,
it's just tough.
Yeah,
man.
I don't know what they
gonna do,
but get well soon.
They gotta trade somebody.
That energy crazy.
They need a big, man. And I'll shout out Trace, but they need a big,, but get well soon. They got to trade somebody. That energy crazy. They need a big, man.
I know I shot at Trace,
but they need a big. They need Vucevic.
They need Vuce.
Yeah, they could use him. They could use him
for sure. Make that call. Yeah, they need
Vuce. We'll definitely be monitoring
that situation. So y'all got
them out of the playoffs or are we playing? What are we
doing? At the moment, they're
battling with the Spurs
for the play-in situation.
Okay, respect.
I got them in the play-in.
I actually got them.
I ain't going to lie.
In my head,
I still got them making
the playoffs over
like the Lakers.
For some reason,
I just do.
Can't put a name.
Something's going to happen.
We're going to revisit this.
But yeah,
I think they'll make
the playoffs for sure.
Probably play-in, but they'll make the playoffs for sure. Probably play in, but they'll make the playoffs for sure.
Man, get well soon.
Clippers got the WSJ over the heat.
109 to 98.
Your favorite white boy went crazy yesterday.
He's actually really good.
Yeah, he had 32.
And Peezy was killing though.
29.
James Harden, 26 and 11.
Went crazy in the fourth quarter.
Let's hear that.
And Zou went crazy yesterday.
21 and 20. Zou been doing Zoo went crazy yesterday. 21-20.
Zoo been doing his thing, bro.
Big Zoo.
Nah, him and James Harden
is a hell of a pick and roll threat, bro.
He was hitting me in the DM,
like, man,
y'all always showing love to MPs
because that's my guy.
But shout out to Zoo back.
He holding shit down in the paint.
Nah, 20 rebounds.
Boy, you was playing
some motherfucking basketball yesterday.
Yeah.
That's a sleeper team, too,
for people.
Dude, Tyler Hero make the All-Star team?
Got to, bro.
And who's out?
We're the complexion for the connection.
You can't help me.
I'm milking magnesium.
24-5-5.
He having a hell of a year.
It sucks that he might get robbed for the All-Star team.
I think, as much as I'm rooting for Trey Young, I think he's out.
I think he's out. He doesn't make the All-Star team. I think as much as I'm rooting for Trae Young, I think he's out. I think he's out.
He doesn't make
the All-Star team this year.
Trae Young?
He doesn't make it.
Over Tyler Hero?
Tyler Hero makes it
over Trae Young.
Ooh.
That's tough.
I love Trae Young.
I think he's playing great.
Y'all know I'm probably
the biggest fan.
And his stats
is going to show great.
But he's one of those guys that just get forgot about.
Because Atlanta, we not.
We good, but
we not great.
Can you go to the standings, please?
Yeah. And you see
you know what I mean? They in
seventh, we in ninth.
I mean, that's a game. I know, but in a
voters world, you know, he get way more love than the Hawks. Yeah. That's, listen, we in ninth. I mean, that's a game. I know, but in a voters' world, you know, he get
way more love than the Hawks. Yeah.
That's, listen, if we
go through the guards in the East who's, like, all-star potential,
let's just name some right now. K,
Jalen Brunson, LaMelo. We know
them three gonna make it for sure, right?
And then you go through the other possibilities. You look at
Damian Lillard. You look at a Trey Young.
Look at a Tyler Hero.
Damn, man. Like, look at a Tyler Hero. Damn, man.
Look at a Darius Garland.
Somebody going to be odd out in this situation.
Rightfully,
I mean, I think
Trae Young should make it,
but I think he just might get left off.
Think about it. All the stuff that's going
on with the Heat. Jimmy Butler suspended seven
games, not playing. Bam Adebayo's been hurt
a little bit. I think he just set out this game. Then you got Tyler Hero, who's been the consistent player for the Heat. Jimmy Butler suspended seven games not playing. Bam Adebayo's been hurt a little bit. I think he just set out
this game.
Then you got Tyler Hero
who's been the consistent
player for the Heat
and they still in a
playoff race.
And he having a career year.
Yeah.
And when you look on
that TV, ESPN,
when we talk about the Heat,
that's who pop up.
Respect.
The Hawks never pop up on ESPN. Rarely. Oh, yeah, nah. Rarely.ks never pop up
on ESPN
rarely
oh yeah nah
rarely
we rarely pop up
and if they do
it's a negative connotation
for Dre O
which is kind of crazy
yeah we rarely
like he made the half court shot
it's the only love we ever get
and it's messed up
but
it's the way it goes
and all the stuff
that's going around
the heat
and for him to still be
playing like this
and they still winning
yeah he gonna get denied probably yeah that food will be interesting and all the stuff that's going around the heat, and for him to still be playing like this and they still winning.
Yeah.
He going to get denied probably.
Yeah.
That fool will be interesting to see, the Eastern Carpets guard selection for sure.
We got some reports.
I don't know how true they are, but allegedly.
Jello?
Oh.
We'll talk about that shortly too.
Jimmy Butler allegedly flying private to games,
missing more than shoot arounds like
is that worthy of a
seven game suspension
I think that's kind of
crazy still
spending your own money
is crazy
to fly as well
but that's Jimbo
yeah
so what do you want me to do bro
I'm bored
freebie
I only want to rob a child of work
they say
yeah that's
just let him go,
bro.
I think it's more ego.
I mean,
I think it's money behind it,
but it's an ego struggle for sure.
Cause Pat Riley ain't going.
He come from nothing,
bro.
He don't give a fuck about no money.
He care nothing about no money,
bro.
Get me out of here.
Flying private on your own.
It's crazy.
I'll see y'all there at the game.
It's crazy in NBA.
Respect.
That's what I'm saying.
He don't care, bro.

The Rams beat the shit out of the Vikings.
The Rams beat the sleeve of the Vikings yesterday.
Sam Darnold went from about to getting 50
amps to getting less than what Jello

Boy, he better.
The Vikings might be like, yeah, we just gonna roll

You can go ahead and leave. Yeah, we had all them conversations.
Yeah, J.D. McCarthy got great job security.
I know he was at the crib grinning yesterday.

Vegas is happy today, boy.
God, I hate that
you played that bad.
Good win for Vegas yesterday.
Good win.
Nobody had the Rams
beating the Vikings.
You know what's crazy?
The crazy underdog.
After the bye week
on the lowest of keys,
the Rams been all right
the rest of the season.
Now, I wasn't expecting
this game at all.
Nobody was.
There was a big underdog
yesterday.
After that Vikings, after they got their ass beat the other day, I wasn't expecting this game at all. Nobody was, probably. There was a big underdog this year. After that Vikings,
after they got their ass beat the other day, I knew
that the Rams was going to
beat them. I had the Rams.
I thought there was about to be a built-ass
situation the other way. And I felt like they all
was going to be hyped to play. You know, everything that happened to
LA, they had to move out of the stadium, go to Arizona
and play the game. I knew the Rams was like, be together.
Yeah. Like, they was going to be hyped
to play.
Yeah. Like they was going to be hyped to play. I was playing for some.

Deion Sanders is not going to be
the head coach of the Cowboys.
Why not?
I doubt it.
I don't see that happening.
I would love for it to happen.
That check different, boy.
Bro, listen.
Until Jerry is up a room, we ain't going to be shit.
Because he's going to micromanage everybody.
Y'all got about a year or two.
Yeah, he got about two more Super Bowls than him.
And then we'll be back to French House.
Yeah, we'll be in Colorado.
He is a buff.
Yeah.
These conversations I told y'all at the beginning of the year.
We're not in a position.
If we get in a position like higher up to get his son, oh, I'm 1,000% with you.
I would love to have Deion Sanders as my head coach.
Nor does the Raiders have a chance.
Something about that check is different.
You know what I'm saying? If you get offered
$8 or $9 million a year, and you're only
getting $5 from the Buffs, I don't know how much you're getting.
But I ain't checking his
pockets, but I bet if they double it, I bet he'd
be gone.
Listen, I would love for that to happen, but
it's just going to be Michael Mads.
Now you're going to have to tap in. If Deion is head coach of the Cowboys, you got to be game now. Oh, I wouldn't, man. It's just going to be Michael Mads. Now you're going to have to tap in.
If Deion is head coach of the Cowboys,
you got to be game now.
No, I won't, bro.
See, that's the problem.
Why wouldn't y'all want Deion as the head coach?
Why not?
I do.
I think y'all going to suck regardless.
I think he good.
See, that's that shit.
I didn't like Mike McCarthy.
I never understood that.
So I wasn't sad about him leaving, but I don't...
Jerry's the head coach.
It ain't going to matter.
Y'all going to suck regardless.
You know what I mean?
Respect. Shout out to the 49ers.'t know. Jerry's the head coach. It ain't going to matter. They're going to suck regardless. You know what I mean? Respect.
Shout out to the 49ers.

Nah, they got a cool foundation for a young quarterback, man.
It won't be the worst.
Like, he could go to...
New York ain't got a bad...
New York could be better for him, honestly.
Mm-hmm.
But it ain't like the worst situation he can go to.
He could go.
The Browns actually a great spot for a quarterback.
When they got everybody healthy.
Yeah, I was going to say that.
Like that old line, if everybody come back healthy, it ain't that bad.

Titans, I mean,
ain't that bad though
if you go really go check out
their roster.
They trash, but they ain't
trash, trash.
They've let some good players
slip through there too long.
They did.
When they let A.J. Brown
first lead,
that's when I knew
that was tripping,
but anyway.
Yeah, for sure.
