A lot of times, big economic forces show up in our lives in small ways.
Four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding, but the price has gone up. So now I only buy one.
Small but important ways. From tech billionaires to the bond market to,
yeah, banana pudding. If it's happening in business, our new podcast is on it.
I'm Max Chastain.
And I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith. So listen to Everybody's Business on the iHeartRadio app,
Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I know a lot of cops. They get asked all the time, have you ever had to shoot your gun?
Sometimes the answer is yes. But there's a company dedicated to a future where the answer will always
be no. This is Absolute Season 1, Taser Incorporated. I get right back there and it's bad.
Listen to Absolute Season 1, Taser Incorporated on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures
and your guide on good company.
The podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators
shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi.
We dive into the competitive world of streaming.
What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.
There are so many stories out there.
And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen.
Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Clayton English. I'm Greg Lott. And this is season two of the War on Drugs podcast.
Last year, a lot of the problems of the drug war. This year, a lot of the biggest names in music and sports.
This kind of starts that 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.
It makes it real.
It really does.
It makes it real.
Listen to new episodes of the War on Drugs podcast season two
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
The Volume.
Man, shout out to the production team, man.
They got back to it, man.
Everything gonna be copacetic today.
Some great basketball to discuss this morning.
We gotta take it to the West Coast, man.
Them late games be hard to get through from the East Coast,
but last night this one was definitely worth it.
Man, you got the Warriors against the Mavs.
Klay coming back home.
Warriors came back with the victory, 120-117.
Fellas, please tell me y'all watched that game last night.
I did.
Great game, bro.
It was a great game.
The love that Klay got coming into the arena was amazing.
Hell yeah. I never seen anything like that
even when they called his name, bro.
Everybody got the sailor hats on and all that shit.
The captain hats, I mean, but it was
crazy. That was a different kind of
vibe in there. For sure. Would y'all
rather him got booed yesterday or were you
happy that he got the love that he received yesterday? He deserved
all that love. For sure. He did too much for
that franchise, bro.
It was well-deserved.
Most definitely.
Listen, Mello,
let me get through the stats.
Played this thing yesterday,
probably his best game.
Had 22, was going crazy.
Kyrie, 22.
Luka, 31.
But it did not matter
because when Steph Curry
decided to play basketball,
shit got spooky.
Light, 37 yesterday.
It's cooling the last 12
of the game,
the icing game, dog.
Like we was talking about yesterday,
when Steph started playing basketball, everybody else forget what they're doing.
Yeah, his energy was different to start the game.
I seen when he fouled Klay.
I think that was like, all right, we're going to let you get your first two points
so you can get them out the way.
He just fouled him on purpose.
Got his two free throws, and then it was up after that.
Very disrespectful, man.
No, I think...
Steph, Steph a dog.
You know, we was talking before the show.
We might have to throw Nasty up there
in the MVP talks, man.
Oh, most definitely.
Yeah, because he's willing to trash team, bro,
to these victories and this.
Why they got to be trash, man?
Bro, they weak.
Bro, I love Draymond.
Draymond, you still family,
but y'all trash, bro.
And he...
He turning y'all up to like them 2015 Hawks, man. So y'all... Man, fuck out. He turned y'all up to like them 2015 Hawks, man.
So y'all to a hell of a start, man.
You look like one of the ones still in the NBA at your big age, 36.
We got to talk about Draymond, though, for real.
Like, he's really going to be up there for defensive player of the year.
Like, watching him play last night.
I watched the Warriors play a little bit, but watching Draymond,
he back to his old ways, man.
He really taking over games on the defensive end,
like eliminating people.
He did a hell of a job last night playing at the five.
Straight up.
For a lot of the game, he was at the five, playing small ball five.
He's a different level of defender.
Him and Steph got that chemistry that you can't deny,
like coming off them pick and rolls and shit.
They might be a tough out.
For real.
Most definitely.
And we always talk about this.
If you got Steph Curry in the playoffs,
you got to beat him four times.
That's a tough feat to do.
Yeah.
And to show Draymond some love yesterday,
if you look at the stats,
even if you're watching the game blindly,
their bigs, lively, you know what I'm saying?
Typically, they go crazy.
Yeah.
That wouldn't happen to yesterday. Like you said, rotate.
They take that switch away.
It got ugly. Yeah. They got to a good start, rotate. They take that switch away. It got ugly.
Yeah.
They got to a good start, man.
Shout out to the Warriors.
It's early.
Like you said, we got to put Steph in the MVP conversation.
Right, but you do, though.
We got to at this point.
You do.
Because nobody expected this team to be as good as they are right now.
I mean, we call Steve Kerr.
Caffer said it's one of the deepest teams he's had.
But if you look at the stats, even the distribution down for the team,
everybody's contributing, whether they get getting 20 minutes or 10 minutes.
So you got to show some love to that.
The Mavs, I mean, is it tough?
Just because you lose this game.
But what do you think they need to do
to adjust going forward?
I just don't think it was their night.
Yeah, it just...
Okay.
I think Steph was just on the mode
that he wanted to make sure Clay...
He was happy that Clay had a good game,
but he wanted to show...
Like, you've seen it in his last shot
when he hit that dagger three.
Like you didn't want to be here.
Yeah.
Like he wanted to make sure
y'all know this is still my shit.
Like Clay,
all right,
he gone,
but I'm here.
So we always good.
Thanks.
And it looked like that.
Like they playing like that.
Like,
all right,
Clay might've been holding
them back last year.
Be honest.
And you talked about
addition to Buddy Hill this year.
I mean,
obviously he's not Clay, but what he's given to this team is the same contributions for the last two years.
Is that good night, go to sleep celebration
the most disrespectful celebration of basketball right now?
Probably.
Probably.
Because the moments that he does that be like crazy, bro.
Like what he did in the Olympics was so disrespectful to do that shit, bro.
I don't think it's disrespectful because people know what it is
when it comes to him. It's still disrespectful.
It's amazing. It's not an average player doing that.
I think we
give Steph too much, like,
leeway. Like, he talks
shit.
Like, he's talking shit, really. Like,
all this shit,
I told y'all, I had to yank his
little ass up one time. Hey, don't be doing that shit
in front of me, nigga.
We supposed to be cool.
Nah, he was trying to show you,
like, bro,
have some swag about you, bro.
That's it.
Nah, bro, that's disrespectful.
That's why,
now somebody see it
when he do it.
He hit Clay with it at the end.
After he hit the dagger three,
he didn't tell you,
nigga, this my shit.
Yeah, that's the real Steph Curry.
He talk shit.
You didn't want to be here.
Yeah.
I mean, I'll fool with it. Like, you know what I mean? To me, you need that's the real Steph Curry. He talk shit. You didn't want to be here. I mean, I'll fool with it.
Like, you know what I mean?
To me, you need that for the game.
I'm glad because everybody treat him like he Donnie McClurkin, bro.
Like, turn up on these niggas, bro.
Why not?
I mean, I love it.
I think it's great for the game with Steph acting like that.
But I'm glad people really get to see when he hit you with the go to sleep.
I'm talking shit.
Like, y'all can't fuck with me.
Like, night night night.
Is it just as bad as Luca?
Because Luca talk greasy.
Luca talk crazy.
But I think the difference is that Steph is doing this in situations and
running rings or he's doing this in like demoralizing franchises.
Now, Luca talk crazy to the sons.
That's a different level.
Like you said, that right where Devin Booker,
that's a different type of disrespect because he talked greasy to the
walk them down, bro.
That's all I'm saying
who you rather talk shit to
you Luke or Steph
nah I'd rather Luke talk shit to me
because he ain't won nothing
he killed everybody oh well Steph wins
so when you start talking back to him
he get to doing this and shit
oh yeah throwing up the game
that was mad at Clay for doing that
Clay his ass he was, but I got four.
Yeah.
They up there.
You can't say, yeah, you can't say nothing about that.
How do they fare as the best backcourt ever?
Where would y'all put them?
Best backcourt?
Mm-hmm.
Not the chapter ranking, but would you put them in the top five, top three?
I don't know.
What are we basing this off of?
Because I know I just do strictly just killers, hoopers.
Whatever.
You can go championships, hoop.
I take all into account for me.
They in the top five, I guess.
I'll give you that.
They in my top three.
I dare say top two.
I don't even know no back course, really, when I think about it.
Shit.
Who was it?
Me, Kyle Korver.
Hmm.
Did they beat the 2015 Hawks?
Rank for Austin AO.
Hey, that's a hell of a comparison.
Hot sauce and headache.
Who was on the Harlem Globetrotters?
First team all-in-one is crazy.
Let me try to think, though.
Who was a fire backcourt, though?
I like Tim Hardaway and Mitch.
Or a TMC?
I'm going to take Clay and Step over them.
Most definitely.
Let's see.
Bad court.
I don't know, bro.
Matter of fact, you know what?
Usually the point guard be so dominant.
Yeah, in the two-way.
I mean, Step, Kirk.
I mean, James Hardaway and CP would have been nice,
but that didn't work out too well.
I mean, they were hoping when they was there, but they didn't win nothing.
I don't think neither one of these people are necessarily stars,
but underrated backcourt, even though he came off the bench with Ginobili and TP.
Yeah.
That was successful for a long time.
Yeah, that's a good backcourt.
Yeah, they won.
In the comments, drop some of y'all favorite backcourts.
We'll talk about it at the end of the show for sure.
But before we get off this words topic, Steve Kerr,
a lot of flack for what he did at the Olympics, but they kill him right now. Does talk about it at the end of the show for sure. But before we get off this Warriors topic, Steve Kerr, a lot of flack
for what he did
at the Olympics,
but they killing right now.
Does he deserve to be
in Coach of Year
conversations?
Yeah.
I mean,
this group,
he got this group
playing at this kind
of level.
Nobody expected shit
from the Warriors.
B. Hinn,
caught him.
They was to,
where he was going?
First team all Tulum.
Oh,
y'all was going to Tulum?
Yeah.
I didn't know
where y'all was going.
Puerto Rico,
Tulum.
We still on the way.
Free party series. It's on tourulum. We still on the way. Freak Party Series.
It's on tour, baby.
It's international.
So to go from Tulum to being arguably top two in the West is like,
he definitely going to be in Coach of the Year candidate.
My God, Kenny Axe is holding it down for sure right now.
Definitely got the one spot by it.
They definitely won it too, for sure.
Yeah.
Most definitely, man.
Shout out to the Warriors doing their thing.
Mavs, they'll do better.
Yeah, shout out to the Warriors, man.
Y'all know I'm going to hate on y'all.
It's Draymond, my dog.
But that really is impressive, though,
to see how they've been winning
because nobody really counted them in
to do well this year.
No, they didn't.
You know what I mean?
So that's dope.
Most definitely, Tom will tell.
Last night, we had the return of NB,
you know what I'm saying,
the Knicks and the 76ers.
Knicks took the L yesterday, 111.
Excuse me, 76ers took the L.
My apologies, Nick.
119.
I mean, 119.
Got to score 100.
Yeah, it's your rule.
Golden rule.
The Knicks had some nice contributions yesterday.
OG had 24.
Cat another 20 and 10, basically.
And Jalen Brunson only having 18.
They still get the dub.
PG went crazy yesterday, had 29.
Jerry McClain had a 23 piece, but just wasn't enough, man.
I think the Sixers, Caleb Martin had 17, and Embiid had 13.
Obviously, limited minutes, but did y'all catch that game?
Yeah, I saw it.
I mean, it's just, I don't know.
I don't count it for nothing.
I had the Sixers beating the Knicks, unfortunately, but it is what it is, man.
Ah, man.
I knew Embiid was going to be rusty, and he was going to play limited man. I knew MB was going to be rusty
and he was going to play limited minutes.
I knew it was going to be tough.
Mm-hmm.
I mean, he ain't played shit.
He going against a team
that's trying to get on track.
The Knicks,
they trying to get on track themselves.
So they was going to come out
with a lot of energy playing hard.
But I was happy to see PG be aggressive.
Very, very aggressive.
Now he just got to continue that.
And I think they found,
they back up point guard McCain.
He going to be a six man, I assume. Because he be hooping. Yeah, he going for to continue that. And I think they found, they back up point guard McCain. He going to be a six-man, I assume.
Because he be hooping.
Yeah, he can be for real, bro.
Yeah, I like his game.
He know how to score.
Yeah.
They need that.
He can shoot that.
He's a wild boy out.
A boy can shoot.
And if he develops all season long, like having him and Maxie as,
you know what I'm saying, second unit as guards together,
that could really do some damage.
I like the way he plays.
Now with the 76ers,
they talked about, basically,
Embiid still flopping. Who's the worst flopper between
Embiid or Jalen Brunson?
Probably Embiid. I mean, Embiid, bro.
He act like McBride
killed him, bro. McBride.
Worded off that fake screen. Man, McBride is
190 at best.
Nah, facts. And then the elbow
cat. Cat can't catch a break. Elbow. Cat be getting his ass kicked during the Nah, facts. And then he elbowed Cat. Cat can't catch a break.
Elbowed.
Cat be getting his ass kicked during the night, bro.
And be hooping, man.
That's why I got so much more love for Cat, bro.
He be going through some shit on the court, man.
I told y'all.
And be picking on Cat, bro.
Cat, one of the best players I ever played with, bro.
Most skilled people I ever been around.
He got game.
It's just them interviews, bro.
They be trying.
People think he soft or whatever they think. game. It's just them interviews, bro. They be trying, people think he's soft or whatever they think. Yeah.
He ain't even soft, bro. He
aggressively play hard. It's just them interviews.
He just a nice person. Yeah, he just nice.
For him being a good dude,
being nice, people take him. Because he really strong
for real. On my mama. He's
really a force. Yeah. For real,
bro. So his image kind of, you right,
bro. And it's funny because they was talking about this. They were just like, bro. So his image kind of, you right, bro. It kind of. And it's funny
because they was talking about this.
They were just like,
Cat got the soft image
because Jimmy Butler
had one crazy day at practice
and wasn't an extension.
They were just like,
Jimmy wanted to get paid,
had nothing to do with Cat being soft
and we decided to do narrative together.
I really think it's the voice changing.
It's the voice.
I'm telling you.
The auto-tune?
I think it is, bro.
Like, the Jimmy Butler shit is right.
Go ahead, bro.
Nah, I'm saying
if he ain't change his voice,
it wasn't, but.
Like, Jimmy Butler, okay, that was the polarizing event that happened.
Yeah.
But, like, seeing him on the streaming services, post-game interviews,
kicking it with his girl on YouTube, you a joke, bro.
You a joke, bro.
So that's why niggas feel like they can play with you.
Pause.
But, yeah, I think that's why. It's the voice, bro. It's why i think it's feel like they can play with you pause but yeah i think it's the voice bro it's the voice because if you know cat like he's just a super nice guy bro he
gave you a shirt off his back bro he cool it's just that voice shit like when he start having
a deep voice to the little voice to yeah hey like he do all that shit bro people be like man
who is this disney character like my boy just sounds like bro people be like man who is this Disney character
like
my boy just told like
OJ the juice man
in an interview
everybody was like
hold on bro
hey
that's crazy
listen the Sixers
two and eight
Derrick Moriarty said
PG and Embiid
are not playing
back to backs
how do they get back
on track
because it's gonna take
probably double the time
for Embiid to get back
can't do that bro
we off too much of a like too much of a rocky start.
So for us to be 2-8 and we still have that ruling effect,
you kind of messing up the team's future, I believe,
especially so far as the playoffs is concerned.
They got to make the playoffs before they can worry about performing in the playoffs.
Like, it ain't no point.
Y'all ain't going to make it if you're not playing back-to-backs.
We ain't going to make it.
The whole point of it is so y'all ain't going to make it with not playing back-to-backs. We ain't going to make it. The whole point of it
is so y'all can be healthy
in the playoffs.
Y'all don't make the playoffs,
then it's stupid.
But PG needs to just get comfortable.
He might need to play
as many games as he can
to get back to being himself.
Last night was a good example
of what Paul George is capable of.
We want to see more of that.
But Maxie being out,
9B going to be out on back-to-backs.
They ain't going to ever build no chemistry.
So it's going to be a tough road ahead for the Sixers.
I asked you that as a coach.
If you're Nick Nurse,
do you challenge the organization in that call and say,
hey, I understand that maybe we do this later in the season,
but right now we got to make this make sense.
Because if not, like you said, our season's in jeopardy.
Yeah.
But also, you just got to do your job.
Like,
if there's something they have
in plan,
NB don't want to play
back-to-back.
Yeah,
straight up.
PG probably don't want
to play back-to-back.
Only one player
can do that, though.
But as a player,
I'm probably going to say,
if I see it going wrong,
because I don't want to be
responsible for this shit
going bad.
Like,
Paul George knew to the team.
All right,
fucking NB already went through his field.
He didn't push people, did everything.
Let him do him.
Me, I'm probably like,
I can play a couple of these back-to-backs.
I want to let Philly know that I'm here.
Like, they already mad that you got the max deal,
some people, that they paid and you're not performing
at the, you know, like they think you can.
Right.
I'm probably going to take a little on myself
and be like, hey, I can play this game.
I might not play every back-to-back,
but I'll play a couple.

In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation
that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning
so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel
seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there.

And listen, when we clipped that Tobias Harris up yesterday,
too many Philly fans was feeling that.
I said, listen, y'all know how they would.
PG, don't get on their bad side, bro.
They was already mad about you waving off Maxie.
So for him to bounce back yesterday in that game was definitely good to see.
But yeah, he going to be the scapegoat for sure if they don't excel this year.
And for the Knicks, different score last night.
You know what I'm saying?
It's weird that the Knicks win and JB ain't the leading scorer,
but you see a lot of contributions yesterday.
Is this something that they could be successful going forward?
We know the Sixers ain't that good,
but is this something they should probably build upon or they still need to get back to JB being JB?
No, I mean, if they found a formula that can work, I mean,
JB, you want to play as long as you can.
The way he was playing, he was going to be injured.
His career was going to be cut two years because he was doing everything.
He had the ball the whole game, whole game, whole game, whole game.
Trying to make a play, make a play.
And now you see guys like OG stepping up, having moments,
Cat being able to be the leading scorer, take more of the offensive load.
It's going to make JB's job a lot easier.
He can just be a point guard.
He can still score.
He's still going to get close to 20 every night.
But taking that off where he don't got to get 35, 36,
it's going to save him a long time, especially for the playoffs.
Most definitely.
And like you said, if all fails, if they get to the playoffs
and everybody didn't do what they're supposed to,
you know all fails, you can just give him the ball, clear out.
You saw the proof last year.
Well, that was the problem last year.
He wasn't healthy. By the time they got
to the last series, he was hurt,
banged up, knee, what do you need,
surgery or something? Didn't he have surgery or something?
Yeah, he got a game set with a
broken hand. He went through a lot.
He just had a lot of pressure and had the
ball so much that eventually
something was going to happen. So now he gets a chance to
rest a little bit throughout the season
and be better for the playoffs.
I would say.
Most definitely.
Like we said,
a lot of people benefit
from the East
not having a good start.
Everybody expect it.
So I think the Knicks
will bounce back.
For sure.
Staying in the East with it.
Y'all Hawks, man.
Yeah.
They beat your other team
last night.
Yeah, yeah.
What you guys say now?
117-116.
And straight in play.
What?
Beat him?
What?
It's Hawks.
What?
We beat the Celtics.
What?
Y'all got the little dub.
You know what I mean?
It's a rigged game.
Shout out to my boy Dyson.
Dyson went crazy yesterday.
Shout out.
Dyson.
Get rid of Trey, man.
Let's just Trey Trey.
That's how you gonna do Trey.
I love Trey Young.
Y'all know he my favorite
player in the league.
JB, pass the ball, bro.
Pass the ball, bro. Passed the ball, bro.
Who was supposed to pass the ball yesterday?
Nah, I get you on your
Malcolm X shit, bro.
Passed to the light-skinned fella, bro.
Which one? Because Derrick White had 31 in his face.
Nah, not the body. He don't get no hoes, bro.
Passed it to my dog,
Jason Tatum, bro.
This is my revenge season, bro.
You went on your run, bro.
I think JT might have had 21 or something
yesterday. He had 20 and JB
had 37. Out of pocket.
Out of pocket, bro. That's why we lost.
That was a Georgia game right there, bro.
That's why we lost, bro. Swing, swing, swing
that motherfucker, bro. Straight up.
Don't let that happen again, bro.
There's no way we should go down to the motherfucking
Hawks, bro. Really? Come on, man.
Out of pocket, bro.
We playing 500 basketball right now.
Come on, Dyson had 28.
He wasn't supposed to have more than JT yesterday.
I ain't no losing to a G-League team, bro.
And shout out to Jalen Johnson.
He been killing, like you said,
all season.
18, triple dub.
He cold, bro.
They locked him in for a great deal.
I told you, bro.
He's cold.
He's super cold.
But Dyson Daniels played great.
I mean,
when one man go down, next person step up. but Dyson Daniels played great I mean when one man go down next person step up and Dyson Daniels hooped you feel me he did Clint Capella gave him some nice
contributions B.O. Clint Capella low-key be hooping still B.O. Clint Capella is in trade
rumors every year and never leaves Atlanta I'm just saying my boy got the phantom out there he
ain't tripping Clint Big bro's voice.
Copella is doing well
in the NBA.
I can say that.
I watched a little bit
of his game yesterday
and it was nasty
because Larry Nance
had 19 yesterday.
I said,
this is a...
Shout out to my boy,
L.
You needed some tick.
They wasn't giving you
no PT.
I love the NBA Cup.
Everybody who,
I guess,
AUC's in the NBA Cup.
But they should have
been playing my dog.
He ain't getting no PT
for the first couple of games.
Now he ain't. He give you a better feel for the first couple of games. Now he ain't.
He'll give you a better feel for the game, bro.
He actually know what's going on. I'm surprised
he ain't requested a trade because
people can really use him. Most definitely.
But now we using him. And we're on the floor
with the best of them. I can say that.
Like you said, his IQ is head-on.
I'm not going to ask Larry Nance, but
Larry Nance can hoop, though. He can hoop
for sure. I don't want to put too much sauce on him.
He definitely can hoop.
I remember when we was doing scouts,
we wanted Larry Nance and the Florida Hawks to get him.
We wouldn't use them, but now they're using him.
We got to continue to keep using him.
And Dyson Daniels, we wanted him.
We got him.
Trey, Trey Young.
Let Trey go.
We can get some more pieces.
Let's build around Dyson.
No, I'm wilding.
I was going to let you do your thing. No, I'm wilding. Build's build around Dyson no I'm wildin' but I was gonna let you do your thing
no I'm wildin'
build around Dyson
it's crazy
but build around Jalen Johnson bro
he
yeah
he the guy
he hard
yeah he cold
I'll give you that
Trey Young is cold too
but I mean obviously Trey
he ran his course man
are we gonna put too much
on this for Boston yesterday
or is it just
you know
they got snuck
it's just one guy people played out their snuck. It's not about nothing, bro. They got snuck.
It's just one guy.
People played out their body.
Dyson Daniels don't ever score.
He went crazy.
That's my favorite part about the NBA.
When random people get an opportunity to hoop and they go crazy,
it'd be funny as hell.
He don't really hoop like that.
Now, if this was Trey Young, I'd have been like, all right, Boston,
we got to figure it out.
But Dyson just had a moment.
Okay.
Shout out to the Hawks, man.
Your team being your other team.
You didn't have the lowest in the world yesterday. Nah, bro. We playing 500 basketball, man. We're going to beks, man. Your team being your other team. You didn't have the lowest
in the world yesterday.
Nah, bro.
We playing 500 basketball,
man.
We're going to be solid, man.
We're going to be the 10th seed.
Never.
Play in.
Play out.
Play it out.
On me.
We definitely better
the Pacers quietly, though.
You don't want that problem.
On my mom.
You don't want that problem.
Wait till Trey come back.
Trey better than Tyrese Halliburton.
Trey can come back.
On me.
We don't care. On me. I ain't even saying that because I hate the come back. Trey better than Tyrese Halliburton. Trey can come back. We don't care.
On me.
I ain't even saying that because I hate the fact that—
Trey, turn up, man.
I just was joking.
Trey, no, I'm not.
Trey Young is better than Tyrese Halliburton.
Oh, I'm not joking about that.
I'm talking about Trey, Trey Young.
I was just being funny.
Hey, Tyrese.
We ain't got to worry about seeing, though.
Trey Young is better than Tyrese Halliburton.
Let's not never get it confused
on this here show

I am a hawk
but damn

to the core
shout out

that gave me a call yesterday
I'm a hawk
I did play for the Pacers
dude
won't get that call again.
I still love you though,
Karen.
Pacers is definitely
not fooling with him.
I don't give a damn
who passed away.
He ain't getting no call.
Oh, I know.
They told me.
Karen, I still love you though.
I still love you though, Karen.
Oh, but hey,
your Timberwolves

yesterday.
122 to win away.
I'm sick.
I threw my phone at the TV yesterday.
Shout out to them Bladers.
Oh, man.
Smoked it up.
Got to go to sleep this week.
But I was glad to see Rob Will.
Tom Lord back hooping.
Yeah.
Glad to see that, man.
Hey, I'm glad you playing.
Get on that trade block, my boy.
100%.
Run it up.
Yeah, time to get on out of there.
Who could use him?
We don't have to stay on it long,
but who y'all think could use Rob?
He needs to be.
The Indiana Pacers.
The Pacers definitely could use him.
I swear to God, we need him.
Him and Grant.
Pull up, bro.
Grant had 21 yesterday.
We need both y'all.
Yeah, y'all need them.
That might be a good trade for y'all.
Who would y'all send over?
That'd be the problem. I don't know what they want.
They probably want a guard.
They're probably going to need Neesmith.
They could take Neesmith and a pick.
That's fair.
If we give them a first round pick?
Nah, y'all should never give a first round pick.
No disrespect to my man Rob.
Future.
First round pick,
listen, that probably ain't going to happen.
Second round?
That ain't going to happen.
Future second round.
Future second round is crazy.
Future 55th pick.
Like, Nim Hart and Future.
Like, yeah.
Wait, you said Nim Hart and Nismith.
Because that's two different people.
Nim Hart.
That ain't going to get you.
Oh, if it's Nim Hart, you're not getting a pick at all.
We need a pick, actually.
Now, Nismith, I can sit the first.
They ain't giving up Nismith.
Not for Rob.
They're going to be like, hell nah.
Come on, Tom Lord.
But, yeah.
The prayers could be.
That's all I wanted to ask.
We can move on.
For sure.
Rob Williams, I think, like you said, we talked about him even going back to Boston.
He's a big that can help a playoff team for sure.
He be so hurt, though, so you can't give up on him.
Y'all had to give up on Neesmith.
Hey, listen, whatever.
Just make the call, KP.
I trust you, my boy.
Hey, he had 26 yesterday.
Now he's reading 28.
Light day for us statistically.
It's a bad day.
Yeah, it's a bad day.
Y'all ain't score of 100, did y'all?
We did.
They did.
Don't do too much.
We never, never under that 100 mark.
But y'all 6 and five right now.
That's fine.
It's early, bro.
You not concerned at all?
Nah, bro.
It's 82 games.
It's 11 games in, bro.
Bro, it's the way you start, bro.
It's not, bro.
It is. It's not, bro.
It's always how you finish, bro.
That's what she told me.
If you start off right, she'll think you finished low.
You start off, if you spit up like a newborn in the beginning.
You gotta get it right key lock back.
You can go back.
That second term is
always bad.
If you bad from the
start, she gonna start
dry.
No, some some girls
give you that.
You OK?
I ain't never had a spit. We will say that for the podcast., if you got spit on a couple times, I ain't never had a spit scar, nothing.
We will save that for the podcast.
If it dry up, you got to come in with that.
If you got the Gatorade icon, that's crazy.
You got to come in with that thunder from down under.
Sometimes when a woman work too hard at work, well, you be tired.
You try to slip in there.
You can't play with it at the beginning.
You can ease up.
Come on, man. It's her time to do her job. You got to come in. you trying to slip in there you can't play with it at the beginning you can ease up come on man
it's her time to do her job
you gotta come in
you gotta come in
y'all already said
I need that nectarine
to get me back in
we need to fix the team rules
not the podcast
I'm just saying
send the video
I'd rather start off hot
for us
and then
see
ease up
see
yeah we can catch a try
I was gonna have
20 in the first half
nah nah I got my stats see how the 15. I was going to have 20 in the first half. Nah, nah.
I got my stats.
Team X had 15.
Hawk started.
Team X had 25 in the first quarter.
This scored the rest of the game.
That's cool.
He was on the trading block.
I averaged 25.
I'm a killer.
Yeah, I averaged 25.
I'm a killer.
Stats are stats.
Yeah.
If I averaged 20 in the first half,
don't score in the second half,
I still average 20.
Oh, man.
Y'all are crazy.
Another random game.
That's why NBA Cup is OD.
The Pistons beat the Heat yesterday in OT.
First of all, shout out to Tyler Hero.
Went insane yesterday.
I know, baby.
He was pissed.
40 ball.
Something slight.
40 ball.
He hit three straight threes to take the game to OT.
And then in OT, Eric Sproza pulled a Chris Webber and called a timeout that he did not have, which resulted to game winning.
I know he cussed his assistant coaches.
Out!
Bro, there's a picture of Jalen Rose's face, bro.
They say he had PTSD.
I was crying, bro.
He was looking up in all that shit.
Oh, he was at the game?
Yeah.
Y'all, that's crazy.
C-Web, get healthy.
He's still mad at C-Web for that.
No, they still beef with that.
That's crazy.
Put Spoh out of pocket,
though.
Hey,
listen,
it's crazy
because we just praised him
because he drew up
one of the coldest,
you know what I'm saying,
out of bounds plays
to win the game
and then,
you know,
so he has a brain like,
this don't happen too much
with Spoh.
No,
but like,
nah,
I'm just messing with Spoh.
Like Jeff said,
though,
like,
I think your head coaches
get signals from your assistants
like when,
you know,
because you'd be so locked
into the game.
So,
that was probably
one of the guys.
Yeah,
one of the trainers, the head trainer usually know the timeouts and stuff so they tell you you got two left, you know, because you'd be so locked into the game. So that was probably one of the guys. Yeah, one of the trainers,
the head trainer usually know the timeouts and stuff.
So they tell you you got two left, one left, whatever.
So obviously somebody must have
told him we got one or he must have heard that
or forgot he called a timeout
and called it. I know he pissed.
He screamed at my fucking
concert though.
Man, he fucked that up.
And the Pistons, boy, that was Super Bowl for them. For sure. For sure. They needed that win though, though. Man, he fucked that up. Yeah. And the Pistons, boy, that was Super Bowl for them.
For sure.
For sure.
They needed that win, though, man.
They needed that win.
I was...
It was crazy that it was that close, though.
I didn't even see it being that close.
But Pistons ain't a bad team.
I was going to say,
the crazy part about this is
the Pistons and the Heat
didn't got the same record.
Yeah, I'm saying the Pistons
ain't that bad, man.
Get healthy up.
They do.
I ain't saying they're the same team
by any means.
That's what I'm saying.
Get well soon.
Tim Hardaway, I seen he got carried off.
Bro, Tim Hardaway, Denver got CT yesterday playing basketball.
If I ain't in one position, he got elbowed in the head.
I'm happy he walked away.
He's fine for him.
But God damn.
Sit this one down.
Stop playing defense, OG.
You do not have to play defense no more, bro.
You were in Detroit.
But nah, Detroit ain't bad, bro.
I've been telling y'all this the whole year, Detroit.
They solid.
They're good for Detroit because they still cheeks.
But Cade Cunningham is OD.
Like Cade Cunningham just started being back to play.
They don't know the Pacers, bro.
Why you keep putting us with these sad teams, bro?
No, don't call them.
That's crazy.
Y'all just said they're not that bad.
I said for the business?
Yeah.
I mean, the Hall of Pacers.
We're starting to east right now. for the business here. I mean, we're third in the East right now.
The Hall of Pacers and Detroit,
they all running the same kind of race right now.
We're third in the East right now.
I don't know where they at.
I mean, third in the East, what that mean?
Y'all 500?
I'm just spitting facts.
Feel how you feel?
What's Detroit record?
It is.
What's Detroit record?
Tap in, please.
They're not third in the East.
That's all I know.
That's why I wish we was streaming
because the chat would be on
yeah please don't
please don't compare me
to these poverty franchises
Detroit record probably
poverty
three and six is sad
they are
what I'm saying is
the Pistons fan base
is so happy
they won four games
and we supposed to acknowledge that
no
I mean shit
they were
I can't win for losing
they better in the 60s right now.
That would be nasty.
Better than Milwaukee.
Five and seven.
They playing.
They're way there.
They're playing 500 basketball.
And the Pacers are what?
Better than the Bucs.
Better than the 60s.
It's just not 30s.
That's all I know.
What's your record?
500.
Five niggas.
It's the same thing.
Detroit, stand up
Sada go crazy
bring back
Killian Hayes
nah
he been killing
the G though
you know who
really been killing
the G
it's the sidebar
Trey Burt
oh my god
for some reason
I caught a G League
moment and
he's been going crazy
off the Achilles too
he tore his Achilles
came back
I was watching the TJ Warren kill.
He had 35 of them.
I was like, damn.
That's light paper.
My boy in the bubble.
We thought he was the coldest thing ever, bro.
This is random, though.
We know we get the Pacers hell on this show.
Is the Pacers' best five ever better than the Pistons' best five ever?
No.
Man, the Pacers ain't one shit.
I'm just saying player-wise.
Nah, if I'm starting
at the PG,
I'm starting at point.
We lost there.
Nigga, they have
Isaiah Thomas.
We already lost.
Okay, let's go.
Let's go.
Top three point guard
all time.
No, let's go.
The Pistons don't have it.
Run your two guard.
They got Rip Hamilton
or Reggie.
Yeah.
But you can go
Joe Dumars.
I don't know who they like better in Detroit.
I mean, I could be OD with the team,
but I was going to see how you're going to say it.
I'm putting G. Hill at the two.
You can put Grant Hill.
Yeah, because then I'll put...
Yeah, it's ugly.
Because at the three, you put...
George Hill played the two-two for the players.
I didn't know.
George Hill is not the best two-two.
It would have to be Reggie
because PG would have to play at the three.
PG at the three.
PG.
PG, Tays play the three. PG at the three. PG, PG,
Tayshaun Prince.
I would definitely have to go Ron.
I'll play a small lineup
because Ron's going to play the four.
We need Ron.
PG better than Ron Artes.
Well,
they're going to both start
the three or four together.
And the Pistons,
you're going to have to deal with that.
Four?
Jermaine O'Neal is your four.
No,
he's going to be the five on the team.
I'm saying,
I'm trying to make the lineup make sense because the Pistons have a really good team. We got to match up with that. Four? Jermaine O'Neal is your four. No, he's going to be the five on the team. I'm saying I'm trying to
make the lineup make sense
because the Pistons
have a really good team.
We got to match up with them.
I can't afford to be playing
Rick Smith in this series
but we're going to get clapped.
Is Rasheed Wallace
your four for the Pistons?
No, Ben got to be.
Ben the five.
Oh, well,
if that's the case,
then yeah,
it's really ugly then.
And we didn't even go
to the new school Pistons
because it's a couple of them who was already doing that time period as well. It's a scary matchup though on really ugly there and we ain't even go to the new school Pistons because it's a couple of them
who was already doing
that time period as well
it's a scary matchup though
on the low
because you ain't even say
Andre Drummond or Greg Monroe
I don't know how they fare
on the all time list
oh my god
let's go to sleep
I love Greg and Drummond
but
you ain't even say smooth
that's crazy
we talking about all time
big three
come on man
what are we doing
big moves
what are we doing we can move on man that're talking about all time. Big three. Come on, man. What are we doing? Big moves.
What are we doing?
We can move on, man.
That's a nasty all-time game.
I'm not going to lie. Yeah, for you even to mention them too, DJ, you out of pocket.
I had to mess it up the conversation.
Suns beat the Jazz yesterday.
Knew that was coming.
121-12.
Listen, man.
9-2.
Can they hold it down to 4-2?
KD, get back.
Yeah, they holding it down.
We're down with the Jazz.
I told y'all.
I mean, the Jazz. I mean, the Jazz.
I mean, every team in the NBA
is capable.
You see my boys.
The Hawks just took down
the defending champs.
So everybody capable,
but 9-2,
they playing good basketball.
D-Book being D-Book
and Bradley Bill playing
way better than he did last year.
I'm excited to see that.
I seen you take GD for that 25, bro. He had
31. That's a good pick, Nasty.
I was going to say the Bucks beat the Raptors yesterday.
I'm not saying it's light work, but hey,
the worst records in the NBA, but GD went
crazy yesterday. Oh, John, bro. GD's special,
bro. Who is GD?
Bro. Grady. Grady.
Why y'all don't call that nigga his name?
Ah, bro. Respect, bro.
Respect to his family bro
the lineage
we need to see a family picture of him
him be having
they like
he got
he does the jerseys with people now bro
it's crazy bro
I don't even want to repeat
half the stuff he done put up
boy Ravenstown
but never let him do any of these
jerseys swaps
boy rolling in his grave
that's a great man
but uh
they both play bad basketball.
Nobody scored over 100.
That was nasty work.
Under 100.
Nasty work, bro.
That's the rules.
Nasty.
Basically, the front office of the Bucs said they're not going to fire Doc Rivers.
And usually when we hear front office make these type of statements,
it's usually the opposite.
But what has to happen for them to fire Doc this season?
Not that we're wishing a black man unemployment,
but what would happen if it kept going bad for them to say, you know what Not that we're wishing a black man unemployment but we'll have to keep going bad
for them to say you know what? Fuck it.
He gotta go. Nobody cares bro.
For real. That's crazy.
As messed up as that seems
nobody cares bro. People are really
through with the books this year already.
They just started.
I'm done with the books.
It sucks and I hate Dame is in that
situation because he left Portland to,
he basically went to Portland again.
Same situation, bro.
Like, I'm confused.
I don't know what we're doing as a franchise.
Like, he didn't ask for this.
You know what's crazy?
He's been a professional about this because somebody in his position,
obviously he's still got a lot to give to the game,
but he's an older player.
He could be like, hey't I didn't leave my comfortable
situation being some bullshit
I want to spend the rest
of my prime somewhere
where I can contend
y'all don't give a fuck
he always
people was mad at him
for staying loyal
yeah
then he leave
and y'all still criticizing him
like
and he wanted to go to Miami
anyway
but
he the ultimate professional
and he's still a killer
like
I don't he gotta figure it out he got to figure it out, though.
They got to figure it out.
They got too much talent over there, man, for real.
Most definitely.

have you ever had to shoot your gun?
Sometimes the answer is yes.
But there's a company dedicated to a future
where the answer will always be no.
Across the country, cops called this taser the revolution.
But not everyone was convinced it was that simple.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures
and your guide on good company,
the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators
shaping what's next.
In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood,
CEO of Tubi, for a conversation
that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning
so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel
seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there
and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to
where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space
and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

And last but not least, the Magic took care of the Hornets at State 114-89.
Can't score 100. You're going to lose, brother.
Melo killing, man. I've seen a lot of talk about Melo
being a different market. Chandler Parsons was talking
outside of his neck about him being a clipper.
Do y'all think Melo should stay in Charlotte,
or should he go to Greener Pastures?
Nah, stay in Charlotte, bro.
It's yours.
It's yours.
I don't understand
how this like
leave.
Talk about it.
The goal is to be
a franchise guy.
Yeah.
Like you want people
to come with your jersey on.
You want people to love you.
People to cheer for you.
You want to be that guy.
Right.
Well, I want to go
somewhere where it's already
that guy over there.
Like you do that
when you
already 12, 13 years in.
He's still building his resume.
He's still building
his fan base right now.
Be that guy.
Most definitely.
Go kill.
Like you said,
you can do that
later in your career.
Get this.
You don't have to be
on a max deal.
Hoop out.
It don't matter right now.
Be the guy.
Fuck all that.
I hate when people say that.
Go be a clipper and do this.
You're going to be
even more famous.
Man, he famous enough.
Yeah.
I don't like when Chandler Parsons basically said that he,
I don't know, wasn't a superstar.
Like, do you not know that people have been knowing him
since he was 11 years old, bro?
He been like that.
So he's been a star way before the NBA.
Like, him and his daddy single-handedly turned social media up
with their just
celebrity and their,
you know,
charisma just,
I don't know
where that came from.
So,
I think he should stay.
You ain't gonna be
more famous than L.A.
You already a global
superstar, bro.
Turn Charlotte up
as much as you can.
And it's a small market
and they gonna overpay you
for whatever you want.
with no expectations.
No expectations. That's the thing. You can whatever you want. With no expectations. No expectations.
That's the thing.
You can have these crazy stats, no expectations.
The pressure now on you.
Now you get traded to the Clippers.
I mean, they got it.
Their expectations ain't that high either.
But say you go to L.A., you become a Laker.
You already seen what it did to Lonzo.
The expectation is way too high.
And I'm not saying he's obviously better than Lonzo,
but the expectations be way too high.
People want all this.
Man, just enjoy hooping,
killing.
You've been injured
all these years,
these couple of years
before this year.
You playing at a high level.
You playing free.
You enjoying it.
It look fun.

any attention to the Bitcoin,
it has been very beneficial
to people who invested this week.

Now it is worth
more than their contract
at 20 yams on their investment.

that money the right way.
