Fellas, good morning.
How y'all doing this Friday?
What's up, family?
I'm chilling, bro.
A lot of stuff going on in the league last night, bro.
Come on, man. Yesterday was a very, very interesting day in the NBA, man.
Let's just talk about a couple moves that took place yesterday
that we're getting this all by on the show because it happened after that.
Marcus Smart going to the Wizards.
Whoever
ESPN decides to put that graphic up
of Chris Milton and Marcus Smart
going to the Wizards,
you need to be suspended for at least two days because you was
out of pocket. I mean, the Wizards
do not
deserve that type of a graphic. I don't think they
want to suck, though.
They said they kept him, but they got Marcus Smart, they got Brogdon.
They said they want to have consummate professionals in their locker room to help develop their young talent.
That's what the goal is going for next year.
Oh, yeah, definitely next year.
Yeah, I mean, they definitely, the young talent damn near weak, though.
You sleep on a young talent?
Yeah, Jordan Poole, nice.
Yeah, I mean, he proving him.
I'm with the young talent.
Yeah, I think he part of the veteran crew
that got
you see everybody else
damn near
trying to figure it out
I like
yeah he hard
yeah
Bilal yeah
he's hard
that was wild
what was his name
never called him
Gus Bilal
I'm trying to say his name
that's wild bro
Bilal bro
Bilal
I don't know the other part
shit
we fuck up everybody's name.
I know, but you went crazy with him.
You went crazy.
It's only right.
It's a 520.
It's Friday.
Shit.
I am.
Forever, bro.
For sure.
Yeah, that roster is wicked.
Yeah, I don't like it.
I know.
I like Bub Carrington, too, as a guard, but, I mean, they got 85 guards on that team.
I think a lot needs to be seen from Alex Favre for us to get too
excited about that. I wasn't excited
anyway. Yeah, but I think that
this is probably put in place for them to look like they
have a stable operation
for them to potentially get Cooper flagged.
Because the way they was looking this year, the NBA was not about
to let them get Cooper. They got, what's
the white guy from Gonzaga, Corey?
Yeah, Corey Hissbert. Yeah, I think he's
decent though. Okay. When I watch their team,
him and Bilal, I'll be like,
yeah, these two, they could be
something, you know what I mean? Okay.
But they got some cool veterans now, man, with
Marcus, Chris, Alex Lynn.
Yeah. They got some cool vets. It's like,
I hope they gonna mix them in
with the young guys. I hope they
just ain't gonna play all, start all the young guys
and then bring these old heads off the bench.
They got to be for real.
Yeah.
Let's make some men, bro.
Like, let's have a real team.
But all this
starting to sad kids
and working with them.
Mix it in.
Let Marcus Smart
start at the point.
Let Bud come off the bench.
Man.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
If that's what y'all
want next year,
if y'all are committed to actually keeping these vets on the scene, then yeah, if that's what y'all want next year, if y'all are committed
to actually keeping
these vets on the scene,
then yeah,
let them play
because y'all really
should free them.
They deserve to go
be on contenders
at this point in their career.
Y'all just holding
them hostage, man.
But like,
mix the young guys
and don't just put them
in the fire like that.
The young boy,
the young point guard
needed a,
he needed a learning lesson.
He needed to learn
from a couple vets.
Just throwing him
in the fire.
I mean,
he cool,
but he having a rough rookie year.
Yeah, for sure.
How you feel about them outside of that move?
I see they got a lot of assets.
Well, not a lot, but a couple of assets.
Look like they're trying to do something positive.
It looks a lot better than we've been seeing from the Wizards.
I mean, I ain't giving them too much credit because this was just a good trade.
This is a dead season, bro.
Yeah, I don't care about the Wizards.
I just pray they don't get Cooper flagged.
You don't want Cooper to go to D.C.? No, bro. Please. Well, this is what the Wizards. I just pray they don't get Cooper flagged. You don't want Cooper
to go to D.C.?
No, bro.
Well, this is what
all this look like.
Instructional organization
changes, all that,
but we'll see.
Your man D. Hunt
went to the Cavs.
Yeah, I called that one, man.
I hate to see him go,
but he in a better
situation right now.
I mean, he fit that team
perfectly.
I mean, they needed
another scoring win.
He having a hell of a year,
and he can guard, too. He can guard his position. Most definitely. I mean, they needed another scoring wing. He having a hell of a year. And he can guard,
so he can guard his position.
Most definitely.
I think he gonna fit in
perfect with that team.
And shout out to the Cavs.
They got that deal done
with not giving up people
we thought
that was gonna have to
get fleeced in that situation.
I mean,
I hate to see my boy George
have to go down to the A,
man,
figure shit out.
Kares LaVert.
Yeah,
fuck them second round picks.
Yeah, but the Cavs are in. They trying to win. Cavs raw, bro. man figure shit out cares a vert um yeah fuck them second round picks yeah but
the Cavs are in
they trying to win
Cavs raw bro
the thing is
see they played
Boston in that thing
in that uh
that game
right before the trade deadline
they seen it
like we need another wing
yeah
and we talked about it
on the show
wings are what you need
in the league right now
to be successful
it's a copycat league
everybody see how
Boston got all these wings.
Cavs was like, we got to match up.
And they made a good move, man.
It was either him or Cam Johnson, I think,
that was going to fit that team perfectly, and he did it.
Yes, that's right.
And they got him for a lot cheaper than what they got Cam Johnson for.
I think that did a little too much.
They was feeling themselves so much.
Yeah, and that's the same.
They're basically the same player to me.
And Hunt probably a little
more physical, you know what I mean, than Cam
Johnson. Cam Johnson probably could shoot a little
better, but I wouldn't even say that.
Because D. Hunt, he damn near 40 from the 3.
Yeah, he's like 20 or
9. Yeah, he's like 20, but
I think it was a great trade for the Cavs.
Okay, shout out to the Super Check. Kim Chilling said,
Yassin and Jimmy Brothers said, championship coming soon.
He is most definitely out of pocket.
That's what he got to say.
Because he's going to the public stuff.
They don't got enough over there.
I like that, though.
Because that means he about to turn up.
Oh, Jimmy about to hoop.
I mean, I haven't seen Jimmy turn some shit around.
I ain't going to lie.
I love that.
When I got to the T-Wolves, we was ass.
And when Jimmy got there,
we went into the playoffs,
so.
Oh,
respect.
Nah,
I fuck with that.
I mean,
to have Steph Curry
and Draymond Green,
two champions,
Hall of Famers.
They could turn some shit around now.
They could lock in
and make something shake for sure.
Yeah.
Did they get anybody else?
Nah,
they ain't get nobody. They ain't in trouble. They got rid of niggas? No, they ain't getting nobody.
They got rid of niggas.
Yeah, they got under that apron.
That's what they was on.
Boys was trying to get,
they ain't trying to pay that tax fee, man.
That's really what a lot of these moves is about.
Some teams trying to get better.
Everybody else is like, shit, we ain't winning shit.
We ain't about to pay all this money for nothing.
Yeah, I feel that.
Yeah, that roster is a little wicked.
Yeah, I ain't really sold on that roster,
but watching them play last night, they had Jimmy Butler. That'd be a decent team. I ain't really sold on that roster, but watching them
play last night,
they had Jimmy Butler.
That'd be a decent team.
I'm not sold on them.
Yeah.
That'd be okay.
They ain't gonna be.
They 5, 6, 7.
If that team
want to jump in shit,
gotta have different
conversations
about Jimmy Butler.
This team.
If that team gets
to the conference finals,
we gotta have different
conversations about
Jimmy Butler.
But they 5, 6, 7
in the West to me.
Yeah, they make too much noise.
At best.
Oh, yeah, they can get in the play-in.
They can sneak in and play some.
They can get all the way to the fifth seed.
All it takes is a five-game win streak.
Yeah, they can get.
That's a lot to ask.
They can catch the Wolves for sure.
Damn.
Hey, man, back to the Hawks and the situation.
You feel like, how you feel about this move?
I know you didn't want this to happen, but with some of the moves yesterday, are you
turning it up?
Are you going with the untalented?
Like, what y'all got going on, man?
Honestly, I couldn't tell you.
Okay.
I don't know what we're doing.
What's the plan?
Maybe we're trying to get a draft pick.
Yeah, because I don't, yeah.
Maybe we're tanking for Cooper.
Shit.
Yeah, I don't own y'all draft pick next year, though. I don't know, but I'm just saying, that's what, I don't, yeah. Maybe we're tanking for Cooper's shit. Yeah, I don't know. I'm going to draft him next year, though.
I don't know, but I'm just saying.
That's what, I don't know what we're doing.
I honestly don't.
I think they're trying to get Young Zach some minutes.
Like, he got a point.
I mean, he was going to get that anyway.
You know, he was coming off the bench.
You know, he was starting.
We kept Clint.
Oh, boy.
Bogey.
Yeah, we got rid of Bogey.
We got Terrence, man.
I like Bones Holland down there.
I like Bones Holland.
I mean, he might get an opportunity to play,
but it's just like there's no moves that really move the needle for us.
I think at this point, Trae Young is going to get a little frustrated.
You take my second-leading scorer, basically,
and send him to a championship contending team
and then leave me over here to dry.
Like, what are we doing?
Yeah, and as soon as you say it's about the draft pick situation,
I think they draft picks are going to come from Trey and Trey Young.
Yeah.
That's where they rebuild is about to come from Trey and Trey Young.
Because ain't no way you can do this to him next year, bro.
Because like you said, it's already hard to get free agents down there.
And he don't got nothing.
Like, nothing to work with.
No offense to everybody else, but like, swapping out Terrence Mann for D-Hunt.
Like, what we doing?
Yeah.
Basically.
Trae Young need to go play with Goddamn Pops.
Like, who are starting five right now?
Trae Young would be a starting one.
At your two, that's tough.
What, Terrence Mann?
Terrence Mann at the two is wicked.
Who the three?
I mean, is it the three?
I mean.
Free try, bro.
Careless Burt, then you're starting two.
Okay, so now we start Careless Burt.
Yo, three is definitely going to have to be.
Terrence Mann.
Terrence Mann.
That's Jalen Johnson.
Jalen Johnson, big O.
Jalen Johnson out.
Oh, I'm saying like.
Oh, you're saying.
Oh, no.
Well, Zachariah Young, Zach,
going to start.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Big O?
Big O going to start for sure.
Yeah, I just don't...
Yeah.
Now, Trey to the Magic.
Trey to the Magic.
I'm something.
Yeah.
Yeah, send Trey...
I'm something.
Send Trey to play with Paulo.
Bring...
What's your point?
Jalen Suggs.
Bring Suggs to the eight.
They probably like Suggs
more than Trey down there.
Let Suggs and Jalen Johnson figure that out down there the eight. They probably like Suggs more than Trey down there. Let Suggs and Jalen Johnson figure that out down there.
Yeah, they probably like Suggs more than Orlando.
And every first round fucking pick you got for the next three years,
that's what they on.
They're like, yeah, we need a PG, we need another young wing,
and we need picks.
Just saying.
And if I'm Orlando, fucking picks.
You don't think they like Suggs more down there than Trey?
They like a defensive-minded team.
They do.
Big guards, big wings. It's? They like a defensive minded team. They do. Big guards,
big wings.
It's okay to have
a big offensive weapon.
I like how you said that.
Like,
for real,
like.
What's the best defense
we hear?
You don't think he'd
take away from Franz
and Pablo?
No,
no,
because now I feel like
Trey,
he was trying to play
the real PG on this team,
but he just kept
getting injured
and shit wasn't working out.
He can go do that.
That way, when people go down, he can go,
oh, shit, I can get 30. My guys is out,
but while they in there, bro, he can beat at 18 and
11. It's more effective.
He's more of a weapon than Jalen Suggs.
Most definitely.
I agree. Look at that roster. If you would put
Trey, I mean, obviously you got to lose a couple people, but imagine
Trey Young, that's right, with KCP next to him,
both the wings and the big.
That's dangerous, bro.
That's a fire squad.
That's dangerous.
I was just talking to my brother about that.
I'm like, yeah, bro, I fuck with that.
They had to trade Jalen Sugg, Jonathan Isaac.
Get rid of Isaac.
Most definitely a couple.
He can go to one of them mega churches in Atlanta.
He'd tap right in. Them shoes
would sell right out in Atlanta. Nah, he gotta
go to a white church, bro. Nah.
He's gonna go where the Lord is reigning.
Nah, bro. He took
it. Nah, I don't
think Jonathan Isaac is Baptist
by any means, but
that ain't the boss. Y'all said
Jonathan Isaac Catholic. For sure.
For sure. For sure.
Shout out to Saturday Church.
Abba Stylick.
He definitely not Abba Stylick.
Nah, they would have had denim on them shoes.
Yeah, he'd run away.
That's King of Diamonds.
He'd run away.
All right, let's move on from that.
Kevin Porter to the Bucs.
How you like that situation?
They gave him a scoring punch off the bench,
but I don't know.
He can score.
Yeah, they wasn't playing that way anyway.
Yeah, I mean, I think he can score.
Yeah, I mean, that was an easy trade for them.
I mean, like you said.
That's a good answer, bro.
Marjon wasn't playing.
Yeah, that wasn't rock and roll.
He was just sitting on the right bench anyway.
But Kevin Porter, you know, we all know he can score a bunch of 50 points
before,
so he can come off
and give him a scoring punch.
Yeah.
I don't know how much
they're going to use him.
You're going to say
he's playing with Giannis.
Yeah,
interesting to see
how Doc use him,
but he definitely gives you
a scoring punch off the bench.
Well,
capabilities to score.
Yeah.
Yeah,
he getting the game,
second unit,
start doing all that dribbling,
Giannis is going to be like,
yo,
big dog.
Ah, facts. You don't get, it ain't no ISO work with Giannis. Yeah, he get in the game, second unit, start doing all that dribbling. Y'all just gonna play A.L. Big Dog. Ah, facts.
You don't get,
it ain't no ISO work
with Yannis.
Yeah, you see D.H.
It's your nigga right now.
It's a lot.
It's a fact.
Yannis ain't playing
none of them games.
That's crazy.
But that was interesting.
I mean,
they weren't rocking with him,
but that was an aggressive move,
I would say.
Also, Sacramento,
Indianapolis on.
Jake LaRiviere
went east side,
outside, man, to the Sacramento Kings. What they trying to do, man? Nothing. I don't know. They out here making moves like they're aggressive Indianapolis on Jake LaRiviere East side Outside man
To the Sacramento Kings
What they trying to do man
Nothing
I don't know
They out here making moves
Like they aggressive about something
But the trade deadline is over
So they are stuck with this roster
For the rest of the year
I don't like it
Jake
It didn't even matter
Jake
They didn't even pick up his
His
You know his option
So
I knew they was going to move on
From him
I mean
Shit Hopefully he can find his way out there,
but I don't really know the setup.
Okay.
I don't know what they got going on in Sacramento.
Yeah, so Fox was just like,
hey, y'all see all these reports, but I was a problem, right?
Yeah, talk your shit.
Yeah.
See this week?
Yeah.
You see all this confusion going on?
Don't say shit about my name.
Leave me alone.
I don't play for y'all no more.
Yeah.
I think San Antonio
was greasy for Denver, even allowing him to wear a 2
down there. He switched it for
it, but were they out of pocket?
No, they're not out of pocket, bro.
It's like PG, bro. Nobody respect that number.
That's Kawhi Leonard,
though, bro. He put the banner up.
Has anybody wore 13 in the end of it?
That's a good question. I wouldn't be surprised if they did.
I know it's just the way you leave.
Like,
if you leave on bad terms,
it ain't really
no fixing it.
Like,
only Orlando fixed it
with Shaq
and Toronto
with Vince.
Oh, yeah.
But they was like
polarizing figures.
Kawhi Leonard was cold,
but he ain't Tim Duncan.
Yeah, he not polarizing.
Yeah, he ain't
Manu
or Tony Parker to them. You know what I mean? And the same thing with PG. You ain't Tim Duncan. Yeah, he not Paula Rousey. Yeah, he ain't Manu or Tony Parker to them.
You know what I mean?
And the same thing with PG.
He wasn't Reggie.
He was cold, but...
He was cold, but yeah.
They don't solidify
in indie like that.
When he was just like,
I ain't never got a video.
Come on, fam.
That should tell you a lot.
Come on, bro.
You knew what time it was.
But the page is out of pocket, though.
Y'all are right,
but the page is out of pocket for not making him a... I don't know why he give a fuck that much, but a tribute video, bro. You knew what time it was. Well, the Patriots is out of pocket, though. Y'all are right, but the Patriots
is out of pocket
for not making him a...
I don't know why
he give a fuck that much,
but a tribute video, bro,
he deserved one.
I mean, he was here
for, what, seven years?
Yeah, he did his thing here.
I mean, listen.
I don't disagree
with what you're saying,
but if you're looking
at that arena,
Jermaine O'Neal ain't up there.
Nah.
So if J.O. ain't up there
and that's how they would
with everybody,
then that's it.
If they was honoring everybody else and just sliding him over, that's weird.
I mean, just because you a fucking nigga all the way around the board.
I mean, it's right.
I believe in consistency.
Get J.O. up there, too.
For sure.
J.O. deserve to be up there.
1,000%.
I'm rolling.
I don't know, bro.
Shout out to Mel Daniels and all the past players before, but y'all ain't fucking with them, too.
PG deserved to get a video.
At least, bro.
The way he left was just like, I don't want to be here.
Like, I hate the potholes.
Like, I can't drive my Ferrari type shit.
Like, you know, blue collar city like us.
Yeah.
Midwest shit.
We wasn't feeling that stunt shit. Nah, nigga. That's some. Midwest shit. We wasn't feeling that stunt shit.
Nah, nigga.
That's some Cali shit.
We wasn't fucking with that.
Now I go drive a Lamborghini in Oklahoma City.
That's what I was saying.
See the pahos out there.
He was like, yeah, I need to go to LA.
You know, nap shit.
And I wasn't fucking with that.
They're like, what?
Burning their jerseys and shit.
We don't drive Ferraris in the Napa.
Anyway.
Get you a Chevy, my boyis in anyway get you a Chevy
my boy

on me
so they was mad
so it was just
the way he left
that they made him
feel the way
but

But we did not trade that, man.
That was Denny Ains or Rob Pelinka.
Yeah, yeah, I did.
Y'all are Denny Ains or Rob Pelinka.
I'm definitely Rob Pelinka.
Back door for this.
I'm thinking definitely Denny Ains.
I seen who it's Shafino and IU.
I just knew, like, he wasn't ready for the league.
Ain't no disrespect. And he got thrown on the Lakers. Yeah, I can't ready for the league. Ain't no disrespect.
And he got thrown on the Lakers.
Yeah, I was going to say, that's the tough part.
I just seen he wasn't NBA ready.
Like, he need another year of college.
Shit, go overseas and kill, bro.
Yeah, I mean, but shit, fuck it.
You made the dream.
You made it to the league.
That's the dream.
Yeah.
And you probably going to get picked up.
I mean, he a young,
he got potential.
Yeah.
What is he,
a 6'5 guard?
Yeah,
put them there.
I mean, but damn.
Go for a nice jump shot as well.
If Utah,
you can't get that,
you know,
Utah rebuild mode.
Yeah,
if you ain't get no love
down there,
it's going to be tough.
Summer league, man.
He's got to go kill
the summer league,
unfortunately.
Who else is sad
that might give him a chance?
Oh, it's a lot of teams
that need some help.
But I don't know
if that guard position
is wicked, bro.
Pelicans, yeah.
Somebody else just picked
somebody up on a 10-day.
Charlotte just picked
off a break.
Got a 10-day back
with the Pelicans.
Yeah, so who is it?
No, he got it with Charlotte.
The Hornets.
It's the Hornets?
Yeah.
Oh, damn.
My bad.
I thought it was the Pelicans.
So who is it?
Fino might be able to get it,
you know,
work his way through. Yeah, well, so it's my boy, man. Keep. Oh, damn. My bad. I thought it was the Pelicans. Lex Luthor might be able to get it, you know? Work his way through.

empower listeners to rise above their struggles, break free from the chains of trauma, and silence
the negative voices that have kept them small. Through raw conversations,
real stories, and actionable guidance, you can learn to face the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify. The thing
that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is the struggle. This is the thing that's in
front of me. You can't make that mountain move without actually diving into that. May is Mental
Health Awareness Month,
a time to conquer the things that once felt impossible and step boldly into the best version
of yourself to awaken the unstoppable strength that's inside of us all. So tune into the podcast,
focus on your emotional well-being, and climb your personal mountain. Because it's impossible
for you to be the most authentic you. It's impossible for you to love you fully if all
you're doing is living to please people. Your mountain is that. Listen to Made for This Mountain on the

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. Cops believed everything that taser told them. From Lava for

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.

Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah, we was trying to figure out what this, I mean,
the Hornets was going to do about a big,
so they must have had that in the works to get Nert.
Yeah, that's a nasty plan.
Yeah, I don't like, I would have kept Mark Williams.
I ain't going to lie.
For sure.
They was just happy to do business with the.
They didn't want to pay Mark Williams where he was going to be old
like he was going to get
a good payday
and they
like you said
they had injury concerns
where they had a report
yesterday during the TNT broadcast
about that
yeah but NERC
they don't move shit
they don't be out there
wilding
with LaMelo
yeah
suicide step threes
and shit
him and Grant Williams
in the same locker room
annoying
what's up man have fun shit yeah NERC just step threes and shit. Him and Grant Williams in the same locker room? Annoying.
What's up, man?
Have fun.
Shit.
Yeah, Nurk.
Just be cool and try to get another bag.
Yeah, man.
Just chill out, man.
Get you another payday.
Let's go through
some of these transactions
that's taking place
near the trade deadline.
Jimmy Butler, obviously,
is a Golden State Warrior.
Lakers got Luca
and Mark Williams.
The Bucks got Kyle Kuzma.
And the Wizards, man,
they got Middleton and Smart. The Mavs got AD Kuzma and the Wizards, man. They got Middleton and Smart.
The Mavs got AD
and Caleb Martin
and the Hawks.
Man,
they ain't getting nobody.
They gave up.
They gave up.
We got two of their
rotation players.
Karris and
Karris and
Mini Van.
George and Young.
For sure.
I ain't mad at Terrence Mann, though.
Terrence Mann.
He just went on.
He's an odd man out
over there in L.A.
For sure.
With all the wings they got there.
Yeah, I don't know what the Hawks gonna do, man. We'll see. Lakers bones Highland. He's an odd man out over there in LA for sure. Without the wings they got there. Yeah.
I don't know what the house going to do, man. We will see.
Lakers is a he gave us a
plus. I think the Lakers got a on a
on a trades to yeah.
The Lakers got a plus Warriors.
I give
it a the Warriors and Jimmy
a I'm gonna give it a B.
I'm gonna give it. I'm gonna give it a B I'm going to give it a B. I'm going to give it
a B minus.
Yeah. I'm going to give it a B minus.
I'm going to give it a B because I feel like you should have got Jimmy
and something else.
You need another piece, but I'm going to give it a B.
I agree. They should have probably did
another situation with that as well, but
also, they did not
have to give up the young talent that we thought
they was going to have to give up to get Jimmy.
That's why I give him the grade. I don't fuck with him. I'm going to give up the young talent that we thought they was going to have to give up to get Jimmy. That's why I give him the grand.
I don't fuck with him, but I don't.
I'm going to give it a B.
I'm going to say solid.
Because I just feel like they needed one more piece with Jimmy.
We didn't even mention Dennis.
Dennis went to the Pistons.
Yeah, I was going to.
I was just about to say that's an underrated.
That's a funny-ass pick of him going around Twitter.
I can't wait to show y'all.
I'm saying that's a that's a silent
that's a quiet
great pickup
for the Pistons.
He fits that team perfectly.
Yeah.
A little annoying guard
come off the bench
after K cutting him.
And
they can play together
because you know
K is a little bit
to the two of the wing.
Dennis is
a proven vet.
That's one of the
perfect pickups.
I ain't gonna lie.
It's an underrated pickup
for the Detroit Pistons.
Detroit actually got a good thing going over there.
So I mean, I hopefully can sign back with them.
They can build some rapport, but that's a good pickup for them.
They got to figure out what they want to do with Jalen Dern.
Keep him?
What the fuck we going to do?
I mean, they-
They had him.
Y'all seen people-
They constantly, they shopped him all year.
I don't think they feel as confident about him as they do other players on that team.
I love to have him.
I think they need to stay put.
I know they like Isaiah Stewart a lot over there.
Yeah, I would love to have him on my team.
But yeah, they shopped him all year.
Also, we almost had your boy, Kobe White.
He was almost a pacer.
It was a little bit of a conversation.
Oh yeah, I was going to try it.
Thank God.
I was wondering what was going on.
But we got to move on the wings
because our offseason is going to be real wicked. Because if they're going to try to pay miles, it was going to trade. Thank God. I was wondering what was going on, but we got to move on the wings because our offseason is going to be real wicked.
Because if they're going to try to pay Miles, it's going to get ugly.
They're going to have to move either OB or Neesmith.
They're going to have to cancel out the roster next year because of the taxes.
Because we definitely got two max players.
They're going to trade TJ.
McConnell?
Yeah.
And TJ Nass is spearing me over.
Nah, I mean, TJ is a valuable.
Y'all can get an asset from him. He's making about nine. Yeah. He just signed the extension, right? Two more years, I believe, is on that deal, T.J. Nash is spearing me over. Nah, I mean, T.J. is a valuable... Y'all can get an asset from him.
He making about nine.
Yeah.
He just signed the extension, right?
Two more years, I believe, is on that deal, too.
But I'm going to tell you right now,
if we didn't trade for Kobe White
because of T.J. McConnell,
I'm going to be pissed.
And shout out to T.J. Nash.
But Kobe White is...
They're going to have to move on from him
because he's a valuable pick.
But, like, I still got Nim Hard
and all these dogs.
I don't even know who will come play with Tyrese.
A lot of people don't.
I mean, shit, like you said, it's an opportunity to come hoop on this team.
We passed the ball.
They passed the ball.
You're going to get a chance.
That's the beautiful thing about the Pacers.
You're going to get a damn chance.
For sure, man.
Stay tuned.
Let's go through some games last night, man.
Historic game from Brian yesterday.
Old man Brian got the dub yesterday
over the Warriors.
He had 42-17-8.
Bron was hoopy yesterday.
And Steph was killing
two with 37.
Classic duel.
He started off bad.
He started off booty.
That's how good Steph is.
That's how good Bron is.
They give us classic moments
every time they hit
the floor together.
It's pretty crazy.
Yeah, bro.
Because even after
the Christmas Day game,
like, everybody was looking forward to this game.
And they definitely didn't disappoint, you know,
moving around and stuff with the trades.
Basketball is so easy for LeBron.
I was just watching.
I'm like, this shit like a joke.
Like, you know too much, bro.
You know the game, in and out.
It was too easy.
Like, I seen one time, I look at the small stuff.
Like, just being a coach, and then you just watch people like him.
He set a pick and roll and popped.
Somebody, they kind of dragged the pick and roll a little bit
and he did a late backdoor cut because naturally your instincts,
when somebody, if you guard in a pick and roll
and you the point guard and they say switch,
your natural instincts is go to the three-point line.
Like they switch, you automatically going to turn. natural instincts is go to the three-point line. Like, they switch, you automatically going to turn.
Thinking the person popped at the three-point line,
he backdoor cut, got the layup.
I don't even know if he got fouled or not,
but he just made the layup.
And it's just like, damn, he good at basketball.
Cerebral.
Like, damn.
He knew this dude was going to run back to the three-point line.
He cutting backdoor, getting his layup. And I was like, shit. That's that mental shit, though, bro. He knew this dude was going to run back to the three-point line. He cutting back door, getting his layup.
I was like, shit.
That's that mental shit, though, bro. That's the IQ.
That late cutting did.
I'm just like, man.
Bron just so special when it comes to basketball.
Because I'm thinking if I was a point guard and I had to switch,
I would have ran back to that three-point line.
They would have been like, red, red, switch, switch, switch.
I would have turned, went to that three-point line.
He would have been dunking the ball, too.
It would have been on the mix type, unfortunately.
Brian and MJ, only two people ever to score 40 at 40, man.
That's crazy.
Brian on the Wizards.
I mean, MJ on the Wizards.
Yeah, not on this Wizards team, though.
Damn, MJ was low-key cold, too.
Not this.
This crazy.
Brian crazy.
MJ used to hoop on me.
Nah, MJ and the Wizards.
I mean, MJ was still hoards, I mean, it wasn't
the drill we knew,
but he was still hooping, bro.
The old age.
He still averaged 20.
Yeah.
He had no business
averaging 20 then, bro.
He was killing it.
You almost just chilling, bro.
He was hanging with
the Wayans brothers.
He wasn't taking
basketball seriously.
I got to own the team
to come get y'all to show up, bro.
Fuck it, bro.
I hoop, bro.
That's what he was on.
That was open gym.
He averaged 20.
Out there yelling to Rip Hamilton and shit. I hope, bro. That's what he was on. That was open Jim Rohn. He averaged 20. Out there yelling
to Rip Hamilton and shit.
His worst,
one of his worst years
is a nigga at 26 and four
is a terrible year for him, Jack.
Terrible.
I would have loved
to have those facts.
Nigga, that's a $200 million
nigga down there.
I swear to God,
you know what I've been doing
if I averaged that?
I've been up.
He was averaging 20 and six.
What? I'm getting 150. Yeah. did. They've been up. He was averaging 20 and 6. What?
I'm getting 150.
Yeah.
Sign a new deal,

Lamborghini T.
This wouldn't even.
Yeah,
he was playing,
yeah,
he had to.
Yeah.
He didn't have nobody else,
bro.
Yeah.
They was trying to fill
them seats up.
He had ownership of the team.
He was like,
I gotta be here.
Lamborghini T,
I would have been Paul George. That's why he's speaking. He be shitty when players don't up. He had ownership of the team. He was like, I got to be here. Lamborghini T, I would have been Paul George.
That's why he speak.
He be shitty when players don't play.
He got every right to.
Because he literally played in them every game.
Yeah, look at his career, bro.
George showed up.
Yeah, he played 82 games a couple games.
I mean, a couple years.
One, two, three.
More than that, nigga.
Nine years he played 82 games
and that's 17
until he came back late
I was gonna say
he was going to the finals
every year
except for the first 4
and he was still going
deep in the playoffs

shout out to MJ man
that's why
that's why he say
what he say bro
but that's why
he the greatest
9 years
82 games
nigga just imagine if he would've
just played 60.
He could've played
four more years.
Yeah.
At a high level.
You know what I mean?
Let me just miss
30 games a year.
And the baseball year
fucked him up too.
It still bounce back.
That's crazy, man.
Shout out to Brian, man.
Making history as always.
Hey, he went crazy yesterday.
My boy scored 41.
Got the dub over the Rockets yesterday.
Won 27-114.
Him and Dylan Brooks back and forth.
Should've got wicked for sure. He had 41.
Don't ever do that.
Jalen Green was hooping as well with 28, 6, and 5.
They gone had 16, 10, and 7.
Dylan Brooks could never.
Don't poke the bear.
Leave that bear alone.
He made history yesterday as well. Most 40 points in franchise history.
Already?
Yes, sir.
He's the youngest to make 1,000 threes as well, man.
We on our way to being the greatest Timberwolves ever, bro.
It's a long journey, but we on our way.
It's you's the feel.
It's you's the feel.
I don't think it's that hard.
It is.

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.

You do.
Yoke might not play.
You know Yoke will be giving them by the All-Star game.

I'm asleep.
That's debatable.
Sleep on what?
Jalen Brown better than Donovan Mitchell?
I'm asleep.
Jalen Brown is definitely better than Donovan Mitchell.
I'm not.
I ain't never seen Jalen Brown lead his team.
I'm not going back.
He ain't never been the guy.
The guy guy.
I'm asleep.
Are we acting like Jalen Brown MVP was Iguodala MVP?
Are we acting like that?
Are we acting like that?
I'm saying, but shit.
If I'm playing with.
You talking about leading?
If I'm playing with Drew Holiday
Jason Tatum
there you go
four or five holes
they should have
gave it to one of them
no I'm just saying
look at all these
what Jay-Z say
nigga if you
if you made me
nigga go make another one
make another hole
that's what I told Dane bro

if you put Donovan Mitchell
next to Jason Tatum
and Drew Holiday
you're going to see murder
fuck your
Donovan Mitchell's
a better scorer
than Jalen Brown do we agree there yeah's a better scorer than Jalen Brown. Do we agree there?
Yeah.
I'm definitely going with Jalen Brown, but offensively
it is night and day.
I ain't doing night and day.
Donovan Mitchell's a better offensive player.
He's been the go-to guy on every team
he's been on. Bro, he played for the Jazz, bro.
Go-to guy, and they was in the playoffs.
I mean, Jesus Christ.
God bless him.
Thank you for killing, bro, to save your career,
because they sent you to die when you got drafted.
He brought him to life.
Oh, bro.
He got going.
Hey, what about it there?
Now y'all niggas is getting out of hand.
You know, I'm going with Donovan Mitchell.
I'm biased.
Jalen Brown is for sure better than Donovan Mitchell, though.
All around, bro.
I'm asleep.
I ain't going to say that.
All around, defensively.
Y'all niggas is crazy, bro. What is we
doing on this show? Defensively, yeah. 1,000%.
Bro, I ain't gonna lie. See, I got an offensive package
too. It ain't better than Donovan's.
I'm not... Listen, bro. If you need a bucket
to end the game, I'm damn sure not giving that bitch to JB.
Even though he's capable. If I got Donovan right here,
I'm swinging it to Donovan, bro. I'm sleep.
Man. I ain't gonna lie, bro.
I like JB. I think JB cold.
But he always had some guys on his team.
Donovan had Ricky Rubio.
When the guys weren't,
he had Rudy Gobert.
When the guys weren't,
he had Mike Conley.
And these dudes are good players,
but bro,
you had,
you went from IT,
Kimba,
Kyrie,
Jason Taylor.
You always had somebody to take the slack off of you a little bit.
You still get to do your thing.
But, like, now, Jason Tatum get the best defender ever again.
I know how I feel about JT, bro.
You still got Fourzingas.
You got Derrick.
Why you got Derrick?
I love JT.
But I'm not disrespecting his second man, bro.
I'm not either.
I said he cold.
He cold.
He better than that nigga, bro.
We talking about
somebody in the MVP race. Donovan McNabb.
I mean, I'm about to call that nigga Donovan McNabb.
Donovan McNabb better than him, too.
Donovan Mitchell?
Donovan Mitchell is fucking raw.
Y'all right, bro. He is cold, bro.
