Everything in the sports world, especially basketball. I'm your host. My name is DJ Wells. Joined this morning by my two brothers to my left, Bishop Hendricks to my right, my brother T. Fellas, good morning. How y'all doing? What's happening? I don't want nobody in. Okay, that's what's on the playlist this morning. Yeah, I was playing that Ne-Yo. I seen you got a couple girls.

I was like, I feel the vibes. Yep. Salute, respect. I'm a little chumbo. I gotta ask y'all this. It's funny because typically you come in here playing, you know what I'm saying,-show. I got to ask y'all this. It's funny because typically you come in here playing, you know what I'm saying, the R&B music. Which y'all go to, like, Bob in the morning?

Does it matter or y'all got, like, a little set playlist y'all chilling with? No, man. I usually play John Mayer, Room for Squares album. But I can do R&B. I can do whatever, though. It don't matter. Man, I'm, like, super R&B. Old school, the 90s. Like&B old school the 90s

like 70s to the 90s on my way here this morning I was in a group I was in a car YN's playing dirt and I was just like I want to get away from them so fast this morning

I don't know what's on their spirit at 745 this morning that they probably got some hot cheetos in their car playing dirt and no telling what type of time they on for sure I played Webby like that

yesterday on the way up here though and then that's gospel, though. Yeah. And then 12th play. They need to go to hell. You can't play 12th play on the way to work. I mean, if he did, it'd kill him.

But the music lives forever. For sure, man. He definitely did. Guilty as fuck. Proof is in the pudding. My bad, Johnny Cocker out of pocket we didn't have no ball

yesterday we got plenty of basketball tonight though couple previews we're gonna go through keep y'all settled for the week and weekend

Knicks and T-Wolves tonight man Cap makes his return to Minnesota tonight what's up with it he gonna kill tonight that's gonna be a that's gonna be a good

feeling for him man come back to where it all started for him in the league. Probably going to have a big game. Sure, he probably want to go for 50. Messing around in Mike. Listen, man.

We're going to make him. He might really crash out tonight. I would love to see him get Rudy 50. That would be hilarious. Yeah, in fact. All right, man. Knicks 16-10. They're looking at third to east right now.

Where do y'all think they're going to finish up in the east? It's too early for me to predict. Too early? But top five easily, man. Knicks 16-10. They're looking at third to east right now. Where do y'all think they're going to finish up in the east? It's too early for me to predict. Too early? Top five easily, though. Yeah, I got them. It's sweet out east. I got them four or five. I think Milwaukee going to make a run and get to the three seed.

But I got them four or five. I'd like to see a Milwaukee Magic first round matchup. Okay. I think that's what it's going to be. It'd be a cool matchup. Whenever, after the play-in and stuff. My thought process is I wonder what's going to happen. It'll be a cool matchup. Well, whenever, after the play and stuff, whatever. My thought process is, I wonder what's going to happen

with the next 25 games with the Cavs. Like, do they regress? I mean, even if they keep going at this pace, at some point, do they get caught by the Knicks

and Celtics? I think the Celtics got a chance. I don't think the Knicks, but, um, Cavaliers will be one or two. Hmm. They playing too well.

They just got a good report right now. All right, man. I know we talked about this enough, but so far with this trade, who y'all feel like won this trade so far? Oh, the Knicks. Knicks easy? Yeah, the Cavs went over there and turned up. Kept shit going.

I said that, though, before the year started. You did? He said that he was getting Shaq and Kobe so I was like You over there shoulder shrugging for him. I was just

yo NBA insider I thought you had more tapped into the Well I mean it happened. I can't help. You know when I'm coaching my kids

I always tell them I can't play for y'all man. Y'all gotta go out there and play. Nah that's what they say to me. That's what they say to you. That's what they say to you? That's what all the coaches out of coaching get to say to me. Look at you, still in my shot.

Nigga, I always try to take my moment. Hey, when we dropped that reel, they was just like, T-B-A would be here, right? He really do. Nigga, that's because he be hating what I'm writing. The real insider. That's because he be hating what I'm writing. The real insider. Now, you know who hating what I'm writing? Mike.

For sure. Tell him about the upgrade. All right, come on. How y'all feel about these new lenses, y'all? Shout out to Freaky Mike. Shout out to the production team going crazy, man. You think the Wolves gave up on Cat too early? Yeah, I think they had another run in them.

I mean, obviously, they just had the best year in the franchise or whatever. What they made to the Western Conference Finals, I think they was one step away, like one piece away, I should say, from making it to the finals and actually competing for a championship, probably taking the Celtics on probably – probably the seven, six or seven games for real. They probably needed one more scoring third off the bench. Yeah. And then they could have been a complete team almost.

And I think they gave up a little early. I think Cat obviously is in his prime playing unbelievable right now. And I think he's a better player than J.R. I mean, obviously he makes more money but i think they had one more year in them for sure and it's always interesting to hear about how like money can mess up a good thing because like james harv is on a podcast talking about how four million dollars really messed up him saying okay seeing them having that scene like so in hindsight it's like yeah you saving money we know we want to move on because to make the finances work but

they definitely feel the difference in that because like you said, they could have had a hell of a season. They could have got to the midpoint and then added one of these disgruntled stars or somebody looking like, we got a lot of role players that's up for grabs right now. They could have added another scoring threat on that team and been a finals contender for sure, but be here, man. Seventh place in the West, what they going to do, man?

We struggling. We struggling. We low-key ass. Oh, okay. You don't feel as optimistic as you have been? No, no, no. I'm saying early on, like, you know, it's 82 games. But we ass right now. But for us to still be competing out in the West, I'm okay with that. I just had higher expectations for us this year.

So if they don't figure it out by All-Star break, well, a little bit after All-Star break, they probably through. Damn. You think they got that much time? I was going to ask you, what do you see they going to finish up? Are they a playoff team for sureStar break, they probably through. Damn. You think they got that much time? I was going to ask you, what do you see they're going to finish up? Are they a playoff team for sure? Yeah, they a playoff team. Even if they slip down to the plane, I think they'll get in.

But I just don't know if they're making no real noise. I don't think they can fuck with the Thunder, the Nuggets, any of those top teams out there. I don't even think they're better than Memphis. Nah. I agree. I feel like they took they're better than Memphis. I agree. I feel like they took a... Obviously, they did take a step back because last year they were one of the top

teams, but I just think they're missing that present cat. It was a 20-10 guy and he could shoot the third. I should have sent fucking Rudy to New York. Memphis did not want that. That was nothing.

Tiff was a tight Tiff Tiff lost his no the fuck y'all the game alright who get the dub tonight

next to T-Wood fuck he always make that face I swear bro fuck shout out to Tiff who get the dub

tonight fellas I'm up and down with I don't know I'm gonna be real I think playing in Minnesota I think A.E. he out to Tim. Who can the dub tonight fellas? I'm up and down with it. I don't know. I'm going to be real. I think playing in Minnesota I think A.E. He one of those

kind of guys. He love those kind of moments and I think he going to go crazy and ruin Cat Return. That'd be fire. He drop a 40 piece

and talk some shit to Cat. He on that. Yeah. He on that for sure. I think he might ruin Cat Return. Sure man.

Alright man. We're going to Bulls Cross the Board? I'll take next. Okay. Turn up. Where is that Grizzlies? Then it's your debut, man.

That's going to be a nice game. You welcome, Dennis. You see we're number 71. I didn't choose the number. Jeff did. So you picked the destination. Jeff picked the jersey number. Okay.

I'm sure he probably wearing 71 because 17 is probably retired, maybe Chris Mullen? Possibly. I think Chris Mullen wore 17. He did. So that's probably retired, so he probably had to flip it. 71 is wild, though. Yeah, it is crazy. I wonder

how many jerseys they got retired up there. I'll just respect Chris Mullen. He gonna hoop out there. Run TMC with that shit. Yeah, I think I think Dennis gonna play really well up there. I'll disrespect that. He gonna hoop out there. Run TMC with that shit. I think Dennis is going to play really well up there. Yeah. I'm a little worried, but this is a tough game to play for your first game at Memphis.

Yeah. Your first assignment is job with a new team. Good thing about Dennis, he's a competitor, though. You know he's going to go out and compete. Yeah. Playing job for your first game on a new team. Good thing about Dennis, he's a competitor though, so you know he'll go out and compete. Playing job for your first game on a new team is going to be a little

tough in Memphis too. Hell yeah. I don't want to move on from this. The retired numbers in the state is crazy, but they're going to have to change

some of them. What do you mean? They're going to have to add some people up there, bro. Will Chamberlain. 13. Damn.

Chris Mullin, Rick Berry. Yeah. Nate Thurman. Put 30 up there now. Oh yeah, Steph. Chris Mullin, Rick Berry. Yeah. Nate Thurman. Put 30 up there now. Oh, yeah. Steph, Draymond, and Klay. Out the gate.

Yeah. Very nice. Put BD Jersey up there just for the fuck of it. I ain't mad at it. Somebody we believe got to get retired, bro. Chris Mullin was so raw on NBA Live. Bro, run TMC. One of my favorite duos, bro.

People forget how raw Chris Mullin was because when he came to the Pacers, he was still cold, but he was old. Bro, run TMC. One of my favorite duos, bro. People forget how raw Chris Mullins was because when he came to the Pacers, he was still cold, but he was old. Old, bro. And he still was cold, bro. He was still cooking shit, too. Yeah.

He still was cold. I didn't know he was that tall. I always thought Chris Mullins was small. I didn't know he was really hood, though. Yeah. You see that cut? Yeah, that's definitely... You know, when he started talking,

he like, he's super New York with it. I'm like, damn, you from where? They from Brooklyn. That'll be a dope interview. Oh, y'all love to have Chris Mullins on, bro. Yeah, bro, they were on TLC, here is him. Come on, bro, that was going crazy. It had Timmy.

Mitch Richmond is special too. One of my favorite two guards all the time, Mitch Richmond, bro. And they was all day prime too. I had that Reggie Miller argument all the time. He said he used to get lit too like all the time yeah he used to have a little bit of an issue

but he was out there cooking off of what's happening yeah so that's what I'm saying bro that's you can be drunk and still be effective

and help your team be lit you special bro that's elite bro it's different when you hoop high but hooping drunk bro 30 off the plane is crazy yeah bro off the plane is crazy.

Yeah, bro. Off the Jack Daniels, getting 30, you elite, bro. Yeah. You used to have a conversation with Mitch Richmond and Reggie? Yeah. Uh-huh. I used to have all my friends used to love Reggie Miller, bro. I was just sleek.

I just liked Mitch Richmond because he was a big guard. Super strong. Yeah. I fucked with Mitch Richmond. Covered live, too, for sure. Listen, man, the Warriors are still looking to make some additions. Of these couple names we got on here, who y'all think is a likely possibility? You got Vooch or Zach Levine coming down from the Bulls.

Jimmy Butler or Laurie Marketer. Yeah, Laurie Marketer's on the trade, man. Somebody get Laurie, even if he don't go. They've been trying to get him for the whole summer. Utah was charging premium. I didn't know. I was asleep. No, they was waxing.

Man, somebody got to get Laurie, man. I'm so happy to see that he's about to be free. I'm sorry I missed that, but yeah, I'm hyped about that. I don't think they get Lurie. They've been trying so long. Yeah, I mean, somebody can get Boots or Zach Levine more likely than Jimmy Butler or Lurie. Zach Levine would be lit, though. In a crazy world, how could they get Zach Levine and Boots?

Because I feel like the Bulls to do a cracker deal. It's not a bubble. All those young guys. Kaminga. That could be a roster, bro. Kaminga and Wiggs. Or Zach LaVena in boots. Terrible chart.

They got to give Kaminga and some of them young guys, probably. Some of the young guys and picks, probably. Yeah, BP, Domingo. That's a hell of a starting five, though. What? What is it? What would it be? Are you starting Steppen and Dennis together?

Yeah, he's starting tonight, he said. Oh, he's starting. Oh, turn up. Steve be on that shit. So if you're starting them two, Zach Levine, Draymond, and Vooch. That's a terrible one. Yeah, that's a little too much

yeah give me Trace yeah I didn't really think Draymond and Vooch together is too much not if you're going to start Dennis instead if you're going to have

to do something else I mean but if you do that situation Wigg could probably stay yeah they got to keep Wigg Wigg is playing good yeah you can't give up

Andrew Wiggins yeah maybe that ain't the move but like you said if Laurie Marketing could get there that's dangerous Laurie Marketing yeah but, you can't give up Andrew Wiggins. Yeah, maybe that ain't the move, but like you said, if Laurie Marketing could get there, that's dangerous. Laurie Marketing? Yeah, but then you have to give up Kaminga for Laurie Marketing.

That's mine for them. Kaminga, BP, a couple picks for Laurie Marketing. Yeah, I like that team. Yeah, bro. Get an all-star on his prime or something. Yeah, I like that team. Do it with no hands.

All right, Grizzlies, 18-9, second to West. Special team, bro. It's a job for a special team. That's what I was going to ask y'all. How do y'all feel like this team can do this? Because they ain't really under the radar, but they don't get as much conversation as they probably should,

especially with their position so far this season. And Ja has missed games, and they've still managed to be where they're at right now. It's amazing just him being around and him being part of the team. Their swag is just different. Like when he was gone last year, suspended, couldn't play, all that stuff. No energy.

But just him being on the bench sometimes and when he's out with injury or whatever, their swag is different. Yeah. And it's funny because people on Twitter have been talking about you. They're like, man, shout out to the team. You know what I'm saying? Keep throwing the Cam Cam Johnson allegations

on my team we want that to happen and then some people are like hey we still getting Gigi Jackson back hold up Gigi

but I mean that's the beautiful thing about Gigi he can come off the bench and be an energy guy Cam gonna be he gonna be the perfect addition

for y'all bro I'm telling I'm just gonna turn him up bro so who get him win tonight? That going Warriors or Grizzlies? Jai left for the moment, so I'm going with Jai.

I'll take Steph. I was going to say, I feel like this might be one of them nights where Steph get on his bullshit. In Memphis, too. It's going to be a hell of a game, though. It's going to be a hell of a game. Yeah, I'm going to go with Jai.

Shout out to that boy, Zach Eady, too, man. He's not healthy yet? No, I was just saying, I'd be thinking about how I gave him hell, watching him move at Purdue. Everybody did. To see how he moving when he healthy. It's crazy still to me to this day, bro.

My apologies, King. Yeah, people didn't think he was an NBA player. They're like, damn, he ain't going to make it. I thought he was an NBA player. It's just, bro, the mobility, bro. I don't know what they did to him, bro, because he was not running the floor like that in college bro he wasn't playing crazy he wasn't playing with jai either you see them them white state point guards at purdue boy shots of my boy brayden for sure i mean but i don't know that's just i've never seen no shit

They might need to go to the... Who Brock need to go to? DJ hates preachers and politicians. That's crazy that you put that smut on me. He might as positive. Maybe one of them. It's true. Nah, Brock can help out a team for sure, bro.

Like you said, a smart patrol point guard. I'm trying to think of the top teams in the East. I don't know if the Bucs would need him. It wouldn't be bad with the Bucs, man. I've seen CJ, though. We talked about the link up. CJ. He ain't going back. CJ McCullough? Yeah.

Link him up with Dane. I'm something. I'm something. How you going to use him? At the two? He's willing to come up. He's starting at the two? Most definitely.

I don't know. He need to score, bro. He need to score. So you got to, what's that? Who are they trading me for? Bobby Porter? I don't know what they're going to want to give up on, but he should be obtainable for sure.

Because Brooke Lopez start, right? Giannis will be your four. Chris Milton will be your three. Damian C.J. to the one and two. Maybe C.J. come off the bench? Because maybe you need Tony Prince or a new defender. I like Brogdon before I like C.J. McCollum for that team. I don't think Brogdon a better

player than C.J. McCollum from no stretch of the imagination. They're both quality players, but I think Brogdon can come off the bench. Yeah, he's serving for a fit. Yeah, and can fit that

role a little better than CJ McCollum. I can't see CJ coming off the bench. I just want Damon to see that. I would love to see that happen.

I would love for Damon to see that link back up and do some shit. That'd be fire. The story would be fire. I'm thinking other teams, the Knicks clearly don't need him.

Because Milwaukee damn near don't got a backup point guard. They don't play DeLon Wright no more. They don't play the other dude that stole from CBS. What was his name? I thought you were talking about one of the guys that we were stealing from. He was wiping Target.

He was wiping Target down target somebody in the NBA was stealing from target yeah damn no he was he wasn't stealing it was rude he was racking up

bullshit damn that wasn't true he was racking up bullshit I'm saying like he wasn't stealing for a while every nigga was getting bullshit

his name like Ryan or something or Ron or some shit are y'all sure? Nigga was stealing from Target? I swear to God. Damn. His name was Ryan Hollins? Nah.

Yeah, Ryan Hollins. No way. That shit, Ryan Hollins was stealing from Target. It's one of them. He was in, he played for DC at that time. Yeah, there you go.

Rollins. Yeah. Damn. Josh Robbins. Ryan Rollins. Yeah, Damn. Josh Robbins. Ryan Rollins. Yeah. He was getting to it. He was me in fifth grade.

Damn. Double Lord. Fuck it. That's crazy. Stealing in the NBA is nuts. You too greedy, bro. He needs your ass whooped. Or he was on the two-way.

Nah, bro. You still too greedy. That's some good chicken still, bro. Quit stealing, bro. Yeah, but he plucked from Milwaukee now. I seen him. He had some backup minutes for a little bit, but. And to get caught.

How embarrassing is that? Because you're NBA players. You tall as hell. Yeah, he don't play no more either. Him or DeLon Wright really don't get no PT. It ain't never been a good thief over 6'2", bro. It's a high requirement. It's a high-required excuse. It is a high-required excuse.

That's why boosters are bitches, bro. They all 5'5 and below. Shout out to the whole east side of that. Jesus Christ. I'm going to put a 6'2 bitch on your roster. Go fuck the playoff. Keep stealing them scrubs and ski bags. GK Slot, you can roll it fast enough. And the blue Crocs. You are, yes fuck the play up. Keep stealing them scrubs and ski bags. GK Slotty

Van Simmonds might wake up though. All right, keep going. He need to be on the block. He probably been on the block. He might be on the block. Like, on 38. He's still on there. Alright, y'all gonna be sick with him and Zion

go somewhere. They gonna be killing somewhere else. If him and Zion go on the same team, bro, the NBA... No, I'm just saying, wherever they go. I'm just saying, they end up really killing, killing for real, tapping back in. Zion gonna kill wherever he go, because he don't want to play basketball anymore. Did y'all see Michael Blackson talk about Ben Simmons hollering at his girl?

Damn. I just seen it on the interviews. I was laughing like a motherfucker. Ben's a sniper, though. He said he was supposed to be my friend. Nah, we ain't your friends. He told the girl, we ain't that cool.

I'm going to go with the kings for sure um college basketball listen man first of all breaking news to drop yesterday how y'all feel about that the um juco now if you were playing the juco level it does not count towards your eligibility you transfer up yeah that's dope i mean shit i don't know if it's dope but it saved a lot of people a lot of people had to go juco when we was growing up because of grades they couldn't get them or whatever they had to go JUCO when we was growing up because of grades. They couldn't get them or whatever. They had to go JUCO and then we had two years to play D1 basketball, D2 basketball, whatever it was.

We're going to get a chance to play the whole four years. That's cool. Now, I want to ask you this. As a high school coach, do you think that hurts the high school kids now as far as recruitment situation? No, it helped them, actually. Because you got to think, a lot of guys are going into the portal after the first year. So they're not even recruiting high school kids no more. They're just going to recruit college kids that's in the portal.

So kids that are not getting highly recruited right now want to go D1, D2. And schools are not looking at them. They're just going to recruit other people that's in the portal. They get a chance to go to a junior college, play, get better, two years older, and get a chance to go back and get recruited by those same schools that weren't looking up. Shout out to the Juco. Shout out to my little homie, Devin Woods, man. Hopefully some schools is looking at him.

Yeah, but like a guy like D. Woods, now he get a chance to still go play for four years. You know what I mean? Yeah. So that's cool. Or like some of these young guys who are not getting recruited and some of these junior colleges are after them.

They get to go play for two years, do their thing. Now they still get four years to play at a high level in college. For sure, man. A lot of people got mixed feelings about some of the other older athletes is mad.

They was like, damn, I lost my red shirt for two snaps. Now they get unlimited time, basically. Like you can go Juco kill. You transfer up at 2021. You still got four more years to get this NIL money. And they're like, damn, now how's that going to affect NIL now? Nah, it ain't going to affect shit.

That money still going to be going. Yeah, money about to get to the bag. They want to give it to you. Hell, you already a super adult at 25, shit. You still sham got niggas in college to get that paper. Go crazy, my nigga. I'm only mad for guys who had to go JUCO cause of grades and they only had

two years to do their thing when they got back out that sucks you know what I mean but shit who really wanted to be 25 in college

exactly I didn't that's too old bro but now if I could make money if you can

if I could have made money in college and I could have been 25 yeah you just making a meal yeah you are an employee. Yeah, you are an employee. I just don't want to be 25 looking at an 18-year-old cheerleader, bro.

I'm just, I don't know. There's a lot that goes into that, bro. I mean, if I'm making a million dollars at 25. You got to be making it, though. Or even if I'm making $200,000 at 25 in college, I'm smooth. Because it ain't like you about to go overseas and make that right now if you000 at 25 in college. I'm smooth. Because it ain't like you're about to go overseas and make that right now if you're 25 still in college.

So I get from the money aspect, but like you said, the optics can be a little nasty because, bro, you're 24 years old, bro. 24, 18 is a hell of a age. I just come to practice and shoot.

I mean, yeah, just because you in college don't mean you dating college girls. You could be dating. For sure. No, you could date whoever you want. Just the atmosphere

is kind of like I'm 25 and I don't know. I got to whoever you want. I'm just, just the atmosphere is kind of like, I'm 25 and I don't know. I got to go to class. Yeah, I know. I ain't going to class. They getting, they talking about

they get date masks if they doctor. They ain't, they going to class, but shit, it's a benefit, boy. Yeah.

You living there with, you leaving school with three million and two degrees. Two degrees. If you can't make that shake. Oh, no, you up. For sure.

I just mean like. I wouldn't even hoop no more. Like, unless I'm going to the league. Yeah. If I leave school with $3 or $4 million. Oh, yeah. It's over. And my master's degree, two degrees, whatever I got.

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. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair.

Hey, boy, we talked about Jeremiah Pierce, boy. Went crazy. Watch that. Oklahoma beat Michigan 87-86 on a four-point play, man. Michigan got two bigs that Michigan was whooping them at first. They was whooping their ass. They got two quality bigs on Michigan. They got one, a seven-footer down there like a guard.

Yeah. He make plays and shit. I was watching that game, too. Jeremiah Fitts, boy. Yeah. And I am worth it, boy. That coach is amazing. I don't know his name, but you believing in him like that, bro?

Well, he doesn't. Because he turned that, bro. Well, he doesn't. Because he turned up, bro. He going to the league. I think a lot of people talked about it, especially yesterday, undefeated too as well. I don't know how that number 14 undefeated, but, you know, so that's trying to schedule stuff. Trying to schedule a little shaky, but.

I ain't lost nobody, bro. They were supposed to lose that game. Yeah, they weren't supposed to win that game yesterday, and they stole that shit. Nah, he nice. I mean, you hear him talk about him the other day. I watched him. Indie Heat, we went to the game.

The summer. Who was that? Pack Center. Yeah, Pack. We went to go see our young boy Isaiah go play, and he was playing on the other court. Yeah. And he was going crazy. And I'm like, who this little fast joker?

Bro, I told y'all, that's the fucking Russell Westbrook, bro. Straight up, bro. Them old niggas, see, that's the difference. Them old niggas was trying to—Mitchell got a couple old heads. Niggas couldn't stay in front of him, bro. And he was making plays for his teammates, bro. He's a dynamic player, bro. He's literally the only reason why they won.

He had 30, but the ball was in his hands all night, bro. He can play, though. Yeah. One and done, for sure. I'd be surprised if he's not one and done, but he can really play. But I wonder how much that average of 17, yeah, you getting two of my boy as a freshman on the team in the nation. He kills.

We was talking about the players that reclassed up early. Yeah. Nah, bro, them niggas is doing they thing. Yeah, you know what's crazy? He flipped from Illinois. Yeah. Yeah. Had more opportunity, though.

Mm-hmm. Got more opportunity in Oklahoma. I can tell that coach really fucked with him, bro, and let him go and do his thing. He got some other quality players around him, but he is the engine on that team. And for you to average 17 as a freshman, that's hard in college, bro.

The thing to make their team kind of dynamic, I was watching last night, they start three guards, three point guards at that. So they all can move the ball, but he's just more dynamic than the other two. You can just tell. He kind of just jumps off the screen

when you watch him play. Like, damn, his speed, his quickness, and his shot-making ability kind of just jump off the screen. So I knew that he was the guy. And he know how to get to the line. Yeah.

He's savvy, but his effort and energy is always there. That's why I always fuck with him because obviously he got a feel for the game, but he always play hard. Like you said, that was the Westbrook mentality with that shit, there. That's why I always fuck with him. Because obviously he got a feel for the game, but he always played hard. Like you said, that Russell Westbrook mentality with that shit, bro.

That shit. Seeing him play this summer and seeing him yesterday, that transition is life for him. So him making that decision to reclass has been made since. I think this is what's hurting, though. I think kids, I'm not saying him, I think he's one of those guys that college is going to benefit him. Yeah.

But some guys like Cooper Flagg, I just feel like they should those guys that college is going to benefit him. Yeah. But, like, some guys like Cooper Flagg, I just feel like they should have been able to go out of high school. Yeah. Like, Ace Bailey should have been able to go out of high school. Some of these guys, college is not really benefiting them. And now it's kind of hurting the colleges because you look at a kid like A.J. DeVance or whatever his name is. Right.

He's getting $7 million for one year, and I think he cold. So I think he's going to go to BYU and have a heck of a year, but he don't really need to go there. No, he has to. Yeah. Like you really kind of messing BYU up. Like,

yeah. I mean, you turned them up for a year, but then what? We back to regular. Yeah. You know what I mean? So you're really wasting some of these people's time.

Him and the other big that's going there with him. Yeah, he nice too. He got the other top 50 player going there with him. Yeah, we just mentioned some names. I was going to say, any other names in college basketball you're rocking with? I know you've been high on the Dylan Harper train before it was popular. Nah, because I seen him when he was young. I think he a really talented player.

I think he should be in conversation for the number one pick in the draft. Obviously, people are going to pick Cooper Flagg. Everything that comes with him. But Dylan Harper is really, really good at basketball. You think he might go hard in ice? Yeah, it depends. The draft or the need. But he's a big guard that can play both positions.

The one or two he can score and facilitate. But he's big. Like 6'6". I like when you said the Blazers should take him. Yeah, they need him. He's perfect for that team. And they'll be there. They'll be there.

They will most definitely be there. They'll be there. Wherever that lottery ball drop. I always wanted to know how they – I never understood how they did that either. What, the lottery? Yeah, I never understood. Well, they be having

different formulas for it. Do I think that it's all the way just lottery balls? No, of course, there's some influence in that. It's too many coincidences for us to know who got number one picks

going certain places. But I think they have it to where it's like, they go by how trash you are in the later season, like the competitiveness. I know they used to do, I don't know if they still do it,

like, yo, like how you play at the end of the season, like they don't want people to just flat out tank. Like you can be sad, but like if you're somewhat competitive in order to end do. I don't know if they still do. Like, yo, like how you play at the end of the season. Like, they don't want people to just flat out tank. Like, you can be sad, but like if you're somewhat competitive in order to end,

like I don't know how it affects the lottery balls or something like that. It's something weird, but we know how that shit is more controlled than anything. I never know. Yeah, I had a,

I seen a thing on Instagram the other day. Maybe last night. I was just, I was up early. I was up at like four in the morning. I was bored. I was wondering.

They sent me a DM. Who? You. Sent me a real at 4 in the morning. I was bored. Send me a DM. Send me a reel at 4 in the morning. I did. I woke up at 4. I woke up at 4 in the morning. I was bored. I know Sierra make you go to sleep.

Put your head down on her chest. What you saying, Jeff? You got a bed time. Stitch it on me, nigga? Nah. They were saying, who would you take? Like, if AJ could go out of high school now, would you take Cooper Flagg or AJ? AJ.

Yeah, for my team, it depends. If I need an instant killer, I'm going to take an AJ. But if I need somebody who I see is going to be a cold role player in the NBA, I'll take Cooke. Well, as for the number one pick, you'd take a role player? If I need him, if that's what my team need, if I'm in a rebuilding stage, I want to put the ball in A.J.'s hands right away. He's more dynamic than Cooper Flagg.

Cooper Flagg just does everything well. I think A.J. is better at offense. He's got more of his back. He can probably score a lot sooner and more frequently in the NBA than Cooper will. He can shoot like a motherfucker. Yeah, I'm going to take A.J. to rebuild my team. But if I already got a solid team and I can get Cooper Flagg, I'm taking Coop. Yeah, I'm taking A.J. regardless.

I can go get somebody in free agency can do to go rebound and play hard and shit you gonna kill Cooper flag like Andre Karolinko like as I keep watching him he a really good defender like help shot

blocker he come over rebound block shots run the floor jumper kind of inconsistent can make it but that ain't really his thing blocker. He come over on his side. Rebound, block shots, run the floor, dunk. Jumper, kind of inconsistent. Can make it, but that ain't really his thing. It was like, damn, he giving me AK-47 vibes for real.

I ain't mad at you. Because AK-47 was an all-star. He can do a lot of things on a basketball court, but he's a utility guy. He can do pretty much everything. What do you see as far as a comparison early on for you for A-Dry? He got, like, watching him in high school, he got that...

Man. He got, like, a mixture of people. He got, like, you see him cross somebody and go dunk, it's like Jalen Brown. You're like, damn. Then you see him do a Hezzy pull, it's like T-Mac. Yeah. You know what I mean? It's like... It's like a mixture of Jalen Brown and T-Mac. Yeah. You know what I mean? It's like it's like a mixture

of Jalen Brown and T-Mac. I've seen a lot of people say he could be and no disrespect because obviously he's cold but a better R.J. Barrett. He got more

he got more a wiggle like pause but he got like more fluidity in his game than R.J. Barrett. R.J. Barrett is like a straight line driver.

Euro step, everything go left, bump you, like physical type. A.J. kind of hit you with a rock. A.J. not a strong guard like R.J.

He more of a finesse. Yeah, he like rock you a little bit, he got T-Mac, like he got that T-Mac and then he got some Jalen Brown in him. It's like a mixture of Jalen Brown and T-Mac.

That would compare to him. Yeah, if I got number one, I'd choose Ben Tugia. AJ, pull up, bro. He don't play no defense like that, though. That's why I love Cooper, though. Cooper can help you. Unless if you need rebounding. I don't know.

He just do all the little shit. AJ here to score. Yeah, defensively and rebounding. AJ is MPJ. That ain't really his. Yeah. He ain't defensively. AJ here to score. Yeah, defensively and rebounding. AJ is an MPJ. That ain't really his. Yeah, that ain't really his. Just saying, bro. You're giving niggas 50, bro.

You know, my other niggas going to defend and block these shots, bro. Throw that bitch off the glass. Straight up. Yeah, bro. All right, man. We won't be here the weekend. Let's go over some of these games, man. College football playoffs.

Crack off Friday. IU versus Notre Dame. APM. How y'all feel, man? Where y'all going this matchup? Friday. IU versus Notre Dame. 8 p.m. How y'all feel, man? Where y'all going this matchup? Indiana matchup. Notre Dame gonna win, but I want IU to win. I canceled my bet, so I had IU winning. It was a good payout. I might throw it back on there. You canceled

it? IU winning. Yeah, I did. A little hesitant? I got a nice little payout. I don't know how they did it. I think I finessed the system on the site that I bet on. Try to drive things. Yeah. But I don't know how they did it. I think I finessed the system on the site that I bet on. Charles Draftkings. I don't know. I think Notre Dame will win, but I'm probably still betting on IU.

Yeah, I want IU to win. Notre Dame doesn't deserve nice things. Saturday, SMU versus Penn State. I got Penn State. Penn State? I don't care. I don't know. Clemson at Texas. Texas.

I'm going with ACC. I got Clemson. Oh, wow. Going with Clemson. Going with Dabo. Texas might be able to ask the situation. Tennessee, Ohio State. I know Ohio State, my favorite team.

I got Ohio State. I'm going to pick Tennessee just because. I was going to say, I think this might be a hell of a game, man. I want Ohio State to win, but I could see Tennessee winning. But I think Ohio State can get this done for sure. Since we're on college sports, though, I do want to highlight one of the best point guards ever doing, Penny Hardaway, doing his thing in Memphis, man.

All that smart. Most definitely. I just wanted to shout him out, though, before we moved on. He was the first one. Yeah, like, you goaded, my boy. He made it cool to be a college coach, though. Yeah. Like, before prom, obviously, prom came and took over and made everything.

But when Penny first went to Memphis, it was like, yeah, they was wearing foams and shit. It was hard. I ain't going to lie. It got quiet for a second. Yeah, it got spooky maligations. But Josh and James Wiseman. Yeah, he's still keeping it going. And they a good team this year.

I ain't get the dub if you dropping 40 it don't matter no way keep killing King yeah you can shoot that motherfucker mine's gonna go to Indie Heat alone for my affairs we just talked about him dropping 30 dropping 40. It don't matter no way. Keep killing King. Yeah, he can shoot that motherfucker. Mom's going to go to an Indy Heat alone.

For my affairs, we just talked about him dropping 30 on a comeback win, game winning three-point shot. Got fouled, hit the free throw.

Hey, that's a tough call too. I don't want to take away from his moment because that's a hell of a shot he made, but that's a tough call to make on that three. They did.

They did it at the Jordan Invitational or whatever. But, um... I think they were down like a 10-2 at one point in that game. Boy did. They do it at the Jordan, the Jordan Invitational or whatever. But, they were down like a 10-2 at one point in that game. Boy, a special kid. What a hoop, man. I wanted to ask you

how you felt about that because, like, you played in college with, like, all the, like, pre-Thanksgiving tournaments. That was, like, super big deals.

Like, they kind of, I ain't going to say they watered it down, but they don't get as much attention as they would. Those were super big deals. Now you see, throughout the season,

they be having these fire-ass tournaments, like the Jumpman tournaments and shit like that. Would that make you, like, Jumpman tournaments and shit like that. Would that make you like want to go to a different school just to be a part of some of them tournaments? Yeah, I remember when I played in, talking to me when I played in Maui.

My bad. It's just, it's just like. Moana? It's in the movie club? Oh. What a dickhead nah nah

I mean it was cool to play those tournaments cause obviously your family and friends get to watch everybody's kinda tuned in around Thanksgiving and you get a chance

for everybody to watch at home and you on national TV but to have them throughout the year would be dope I probably would wanna go to a school that played more national televised games and played in bigger tournaments you feel like TV. But to have him throughout the year would be dope. I probably would want to go to a school that played more

national televised games and played in bigger tournaments. You feel like more people get to see you. And now that you got a brand, make your brand bigger. You have good moments like he had last night, a four-point play. I'm sure somebody probably called him about an NIL deal or whatever. So that'd probably be a

talking point in my recruitment. Yeah, because I was looking like the Jordan Murray class. That's fire to have all the college teams. There's everybody you play in the tournament. No-so seems always good. And you like the Nike PK term they have in Oregon with the squad. Like, that shit hit different. Like, you talk about the NIA, that's a different level of recruitment.

Because, like, you see me playing on stage. It's totally different. You playing a tournament before the real tournament. Yeah, in fact. Most people check out by then. Yeah. For sure, man. That's crazy. B. Hinn, last Yeah. For sure, man. That's crazy.

Behan, last one of the week, man. Get well soon. Who needs some encouragement this morning? Shit. Probably my cousin, Derek. That motherfucker Ozympic did the reverse of my boy. Sent him to the hospital. That motherfucker pooted and it was over with for my boy.

So get well soon, cuz. That motherfucker. Every weight loss journey is not successful. So I hope, you know, we're sending my prayers to you and your family. You gotta get to Paul Wall, man. You heard what Paul Wall did? What'd he do? He put the sleeve on his stomach or something. Excuse me?

Huh? The lap band? He got an Irish arm sleeve on his stomach? Yeah, he said he was weighing 350. He ended up tapping in with the Nike sweatband. Okay, cuz. That's next. We're on his stomach. Yeah, he said he was weighing 350. He ended up tapping in with the Nike sweatband. Okay, cuz, that's next. We're going to tap in. I'm going to call Paul Wall for you.

Because, you know, I mean, your family needs you. You got kids and shit. And I for sure ain't going to raise them. So, we need you here. Get well soon. That's all I got. Yeah. You crazy. I'm going to give my give-a-little to Doug Gottlieb, man.

I hated Doug Gottlieb too Adam Shepard was on his ass he was like hey get out my business we're a bunch of squad

I hated him he was an asshole always has been, bro. But for you to call somebody nobody you and then lose him is crazy, bro. Don't call me nobody you. Yeah, that's out of pocket. That's straight out of pocket.
