Man, that will be crazy. I know their chances are as high as other. Man, that will be tough. I could see him going to Washington.
Starting point is 00:05:09 From the moves that the Wizards put in place, getting vets in there, trying to change stuff around, I could see them putting him in Washington for sure. But if I wish he could go
Starting point is 00:05:16 somewhere and it would happen, it's definitely Charlotte. Y'all know how I feel. We need him in LaMelo Ball, man. I'm cool. Basketball needs Cooper Flagg and LaMelo Ball, bro. Run the bullshit up. Let's go. Don't start his career off like that, huh? Yeah, Cooper Flagg and Lamella Ball bro. Run the bullshit up.

Starting point is 00:05:56 He finna go play some good basketball somewhere. Yeah. He deserves a new home for sure. Thanks. All right, man. We'll stay tuned for sure. We laugh about this possibility happening. We talked about the NIL situation with young Nico going to UCLA.
Starting point is 00:06:10 The bag diminishing. But Tennessee really funny because they went and got UCLA's quarterback, Joy Aguilar, in the transfer portal. So basically they traded quarterbacks. That's funny. That's crazy. Shout out to the pettiness. That is wild. I wonder to the pettiness. That is wild.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Like, I wonder what the NIL situation was. It's got to be cheaper than what they got. They probably got him for 1.5. Yeah. They probably can get the same production out of him for 1.5, 1.8. They probably took that gladly, bro. Yeah. About 1.5.
Starting point is 00:06:40 And he about to go play in the SEC. He like. That's solid. Yeah. Yeah. Think about it, bro. He went in the portal He like. That's solid. Yeah. Yeah. Think about it, bro. He went into portals. Our boy pulled up.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Yeah. Fair trade. Be all right. 1.5 is solid. Yeah. That's solid. A hundred percent. Now, I say that.
Starting point is 00:06:55 So what if that kind of opens the door to like backdoor trades in college? Because we never see trades in college, obviously. But now with this NIL situation, you might have some handshake deals that can really transfer people across the nation. That's kind of far. About to see a lot. We never seen NIL in college. So. some handshake deals that could really transfer people across the nation. That's kind of far. We're about to see a lot. We've never seen NIL in college. That's a fact. It's about to shake the room. You got to put a trade deadline in there.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Portal deadline. I mean, it's a portal deadline, I believe, but... Nah, the trade deadline. Swapping players? Y'all know how lit that's going to be? They just did it. I'm just saying, if you really get to happen it, bro, oh, that's going to be cold, bro. That's kind of just saying, if it really gets to happen, bro, oh, that's going to be cold, bro. That's kind of weak
Starting point is 00:07:28 though. If I don't agree to the trade, I didn't want to go to this school, bro. Why am I getting traded? Money is involved. You are a worker now, for real, bro. You want to go to a league with just an early start? Yes. Get used to this, bro. So what's the league now? What's the point of anything?
Starting point is 00:07:43 Everything the same. I mean, you can't get no money like the NBA, though. Yeah. Or the NFL. I can get traded in college, bro so what's the league now like what's the point of anything everything the same i mean you can't get no money like the nba though yeah or the nfl in college bro that's it bro you are not working out bro sorry bro i mean technically they can cut you in college yeah i've never seen nobody get cut in college scholarships all the time i mean for crashing out but no they'd be doing like hey you know now especially with the nil they'd be like it you and now special thing I know they'd be like it's a one-year deal so they'd be like hey we're not gonna pay you that this year so I can see it with the money but when I was coming in through Kyle I didn't see that I know it was done there guarantee for you yeah imagine that you're give you a meal you suppose the average 20 oh yeah
Starting point is 00:08:20 verse 12 he is looking like 500 that makes sense I you. I need production. I'm about to trade you to Tulane. Go figure it out. Bring me this 24-year-old. They got one more year left. They killed last year in Tulane. We're trying to win the championship, bro. Did you see St. Bonaventure found a dude who was playing pickup? He's 28 years old.

Going back to the crib. John's, T, you called us early. How you feel about the move? That's a good move, bro. Going back to the crib, Patino going to get him right.
Starting point is 00:09:09 I feel like he going to turn up. That's going to be a league situation for him. That's more his style of basketball. Hard playing, erratic, you know what I mean? Just full of energy. And Patino going to let you score on offense. He just wants you to play defense. He back at the crib more comfortable. He ain't fit North Carolina. He ain't that type of person

Starting point is 00:11:32 They should have been up. But shout out to him for making that move, man. Listen, Nico Harrison had media availability yesterday, and please load up the Drake. Reporter Isaac Harris asked him one of the most hilarious questions you'll ever see in a professional setting. Why? Why shouldn't you be fired? Well, one, I think I've done a really good job here.
Starting point is 00:11:53 And I don't think I can be judged by the injuries this year. You have to judge from totality, from beginning to end. And so I think I have a really good working relationship with Patrick. I think you add in Rick. The leadership that we have is really elite. And you'll see next year when our team comes back, we're going to be competing for a championship. He don't need to do no more interviews, bro.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Why did you even answer that? I would have been like, bro, what? I would have trashed out, bro. The funny part about it was the reporter, Isaac Harris, asked, asked he said it was a little bit unprofessional he said but when you go to a game and 20 000 people are saying fire nico i feel like that's fair is that out of pocket y'all that was out of pocket out of pocket bro and he really sat there answered that shit that's why now i like nico i would say like this nico i want y'all to do well man the funny part about is he had a point where he was just like,
Starting point is 00:12:45 I didn't know the fans liked Luka that much. Now, that was crazy. That's why I was like, all right, now get out this press conference, bro. They said the owner told him, why didn't you tell me the fans liked Luka this much? Like, what are y'all doing over there, bro? How don't y'all know that? This is a top five player in the NBA. Everybody likes Luka, not just y'all.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Nah, bro. You playing with too much money, you don't care, bro. I don't know that Luka Dantz is your savior. Just like the dude that brought the Nets. The dude that brought the Nets don't know nothing about the team. But not like he not doing shit like they doing. He ain't, but I'm saying. He didn't know.
Starting point is 00:13:12 This nigga didn't know that Luka was his best player, basically. That's what he's saying. Why you ain't tell me the fans don't know? He probably like, damn, he really is slick, y'all. Hey, he made a trade. He like, damn, they really fuck with him. Like, damn, 25 is younger than me. I'm too deep he said
Starting point is 00:13:28 Niko why the fuck you ain't tell me bro you about to get fired why you ain't tell me that's crazy the funny part about it is
Starting point is 00:13:34 Jason Kidd got let go yeah right yeah so Niko's gonna stay in that job right
Starting point is 00:13:41 are we a greeter they fire anybody that like Luka. Sham God next? Damn. We don't want to put that in the air, but be careful. If you fuck with Luka, you're done. Look at it.
Starting point is 00:13:57 They fired the trainer that Luka fucked with. He worked for the Knicks now. Yo, this is crazy. Last year, they fired him. They said he was too connected to Luka. Like, what does that mean, bro? Like, I can't be cool with somebody?
Starting point is 00:14:09 You're supposed to have good vibes around the building. What do y'all want, bro? They said Luka had too much control, man. Bro, we see each other every day and they be hurt a lot, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:16 We be locked in with therapy, bro. This is my co-worker too, bro. He should have all the control, though. Like, I'm on the team, bro. Yeah, they said he had too much, bro. Like, I don't know anybody that was rocking with Luka. Man. You gotta stand on your decision, though. Like, I'm on the team, bro. Yeah, they said he had too much, bro. I can't live with anybody
Starting point is 00:14:26 that's rocking the look. Man. You got to stand on your decision, though. Shit. Yeah, it's over now. Yeah, it's over now. I know.
Starting point is 00:14:32 I wouldn't even talk about it no more. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. I wouldn't answer shit. I'm not talking about this shit. I would check, dude, though. Yeah, I would've checked
Starting point is 00:14:39 the shit out. That is crazy. I don't know how to check niggas professionally, but... I would've checked him professionally. Bitch-ass nigga, you got me fucked up, man. I would've said, hey, fuck you. professionally, but... Bitch ass nigga, you got me fucked up. You crazy ass nigga.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Why would you ask me something like that? That's definitely not the professional way to ask. Or say it. No, what I'm saying is... For sure, that was out of pocket. Nico handled it that well, though. He did. The rest of the interview, very, very shaky. But that one, I respect it for that.
Starting point is 00:15:02 I've never seen nobody get criticized like this. I don't think nobody ever. We've never seen no trade like this, bro. Yeah, he's been getting torched for no reason, though, bro. We know that he didn't make that call. You the GM, bro. That's your job. Fuck you.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Speaking of GMs, Landry Fields got let go. He had a record of 201 in 199, I believe, in his tenure. What's up with yourahaucs, man? New voice in the front office. I mean, he was young. He got thrown in the fire. He did. I mean, I don't even think he was ready for that.
Starting point is 00:15:36 You know what I mean? They just kind of threw him in the fire. He took his chance. He came from scouting to assistant GM, but he got thrown in that fire in an organization that really hasn't been about winning since I left, to be honest. I ain't even trying to be funny, though. I know they made it to the Eastern Conference Finals one time,
Starting point is 00:15:53 but it was like a fluke when they had coach Nate McMillan in that little run when he took over. They got hot at the right time, but they haven't had a really really really good team in a long time like we haven't had 50 wins you know I mean we felt like
Starting point is 00:16:09 we was really stamped we haven't had one of them teams in a long time so they just gotta find somebody who can put together a good team and I'm not saying Landry didn't do a good job
Starting point is 00:16:17 he just was handed a bad bad hand boy yeah and not for nothing in this situation we talked about most of the years about the pieces
Starting point is 00:16:24 they put around Trae Young he became a solidified Denver Superstar Allstar for sure man. They had not put no pieces really behind him Did you John say Murray trade definitely wasn't it? That's the trade it probably got him fired. Hmm But so not trying to like I'm somebody you know office But I just knew that trade wasn't gonna work like the John Tain trade it both need ball need the ball They both point guards. It just didn't make sense when you could have traded for a real two guard
Starting point is 00:16:50 or a real small forward like Brendan Ingram or all these guys that was available at that time. Yeah. Instead of going to get DeJounte Murray. And again, giving up first-round picks for him is kind of crazy. Yeah, you leverage a future in a situation he's already gone. Yeah. Most definitely.
Starting point is 00:17:03 All right, man, let's get straight to it, man. Last night was crazy. We'll start with the Clippers game, man. They got the dub yesterday. Over their nuggets, 105-102. Hell of a game yesterday, man. Kawhi went crazy. 39-5-3.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Masterclass. He went 15 from 19 for the field. Man. Mid-range is still alive. It's Kawhi still around, man. He looked unbelievable, bro. I told you I had the Clippers winning this series. They should be up 2-0.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Yeah. But James Harden got to be better. He was okay in the second half, but if it wasn't for Kawhi Leonard, I mean, obviously they lose this game. But the bench got to give us more production. Bogey. We got to take him out the rotation, bro. We got to tap in, brogey. We got to take him out the rotation, bro.
Starting point is 00:17:47 We got to tap in, bro. We got to take him out the rotation. I don't know, bro. You got to give us something. Bro, 0 for 5. He ain't made a shot the whole series. Like, I damn near got to get Bogey. Because I got y'all coming out the West.
Starting point is 00:17:58 We got to get somebody else in the rotation. He's not being aggressive, though. He normally aggressive as hell, bro. You got to get back on your aggressive. He might be hurt, bro. I don't think he can move no more because i was looking at him like he can't yeah yes it's damn bro ben simmons need to be aggressive too bro he made a good move they just they take him out so quick like he played in the pocket that one the layup he did make he played in the pocket they hit him on the pick and roll he got to the basket laid laid it up. And then after that, he was in with a bad lineup.
Starting point is 00:18:25 He was in with Bogey, Nico. Yeah, he can't rock with them. Nah, he can't. But I'm just saying, like, he ain't got to kill. But just be aggressive. Get into the paint. Make your plays. Just put some pressure on their defense, bro.
Starting point is 00:18:37 Because he can change that series, too. He can, but he only played eight minutes. Nah, I know. Yeah, it's tough. Yeah, give him some time. We just got back moving. But Kawhi Leonard being that good after sitting out for so much time like he don't got no wrinkles in his game he not like out of whack that's crazy how he do that bro he just come back and start killing
Starting point is 00:18:54 like nine for ten first half bro like he like he just sit out the whole year he come and just start hooping bro bro people disrespected him man they was telling him to retire they said he was trash they said he was sheiks no kawaii still still wanted him and people got mad at me when I said the duo is he right there with LeBron at 40 like he better than LeBron at 40 and he should be because Brian's 40 yeah I mean so I'm gonna keep saying he's 40 but I'm just saying that's why I was like that duo could possibly be better than Luka and LeBron. But James Harden not playing good. It's going to get spooky.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Because in that first half, boy. Boy, he was out there tweaking. Yeah, for sure. James Harden had 18-7 yesterday. Like you said, had a much better second half than he did the first. Had a couple random turnovers. But, I mean, Yoki tried to do his thing yesterday with 22. Yeah, him a little bottled up too, though.
Starting point is 00:19:44 He had a lot of turnovers that was unlike him. Most definitely. They blitzed him a lot yesterday. They put Ben Simmons on. They just give him different looks. Mm-hmm. Zubac fighting. They just blitzing him.
Starting point is 00:19:54 They trying to wear him out, bro. Yeah. And then you got athletic people that's helping, like, Derrick Jones Jr., who's lying down in that situation, to make it a little bit harder as well. Jamal Murray had 23-6 yesterday. But so far, I want to ask y' you, is this the best first round, man? Because we talked about game one.
Starting point is 00:20:07 This could very easily be 2-0 right now. Yeah, this is my favorite series. It should be. I feel like they going to 7 in this one, bro. You think they going 7? I like 7 for this. Yeah. Yeah, I see this as well.
Starting point is 00:20:18 Like you said, could have went either way game one. Both games have been close. That last game was an OT. This one, it goes, man, crazy. But Kawhi, when he's healthy, we talk about it. He top five in the league? Yeah. I mean, there was one point in the game where Jamal Murray was guarding
Starting point is 00:20:31 him hard as hell, and he started complaining to the ref while he was guarding him, and Kawhi didn't flinch, didn't do nothing. Hit him with a fake, hit the jumper, and just ran. But I said, yeah. He a robot, bro. He locked in, bro. I said, that's a robot, bro. God damn. He locked in. Yeah, bro. Emot's a robot, bro. Like, goddamn. He locked in. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 00:20:46 Emotions. Like, he hit that shot to go into the half and just walk past everybody. Like, all right, I'm about to go take a nap before I can begin. It's crazy, man. He really liked that. People sleep. But you talk about those turnovers yesterday. Man, 20 as a team.
Starting point is 00:20:57 You're never going to win a playoff game like that. Yoko's had seven yesterday. I can't even really blame him. But what adjustments do they need to make from him getting blitzed? Better spacing. Okay. On the backside, get them shooters in them corners. I know a lot of times they was jammed up too much. He had no where to throw it, really. They don't have many shooters.
Starting point is 00:21:14 That's a problem. Christian Brown can make a shot, but he's great in transition. That's how he get most of his points running the lane. And they take an MPJ shot away. I mean, they closing out hard to him, but they letting Westbrook shoot. And they letting everybody else shoot. Like, go ahead, Aaron Gore, knock yourself out. So, they got a good game plan for them.
Starting point is 00:21:32 That's why the game's been close. But I got to see how they play at home now. Like, are they going to take their foot off the gas or are they going to turn it up? Usually game three, the home team play great. So, I'm going with the Clippers to win game three. But we should see. They going to let Russ shoot that. He had three open the Clippers to win game three. We should see. They're going to let Russ shoot that. He had three open threes in a row last night. He made
Starting point is 00:21:50 one of them, but they're going to roll with that shit. Get them up. Most definitely. It's definitely going to be interesting to see game three at the new facility, new arena. They lit in there. Steve Ballmer is going to have it going crazy. The Clippers got something to be happy about for sure. I think this is going to go 7 for sure.
Starting point is 00:22:05 B.M., how you feel? Probably 6. I don't see it going 7. You got Clippers in 6 or Nuggets in 6? That's what I said. This is my favorite one. I don't know, man. I just...Yogos and Murray is a lot, man.
Starting point is 00:22:22 I don't know. Kawhi's playing like this, bro. But the best part is, James Harden, he ain't played. If he have a breakout game. Yeah, y'all know how I feel about Zubos, but. He's playing good. If the Clippers win, I ain't mad either. I'm cool with whoever won this series.
Starting point is 00:22:39 I'm scared James Harden is not going to get on track, though. For some reason. Yeah. But it's James Harden. There's always a chance he might. Yeah. But he never really get on track in the playoffs. True. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:51 Especially when Kawhi going to be so dominant with the ball. Man. James need the ball. So, I don't know. It might be hard for him to get on track. Hopefully he do, though. He was missing wide open shots, though. Because I don't see Jokic.
Starting point is 00:23:02 I don't see the Nuggets having 20 turnovers again. Whoever take care of the ball is going to win this series. Because the first game, Kawhi had like seven turnovers. Yeah. Jokic got seven. Whoever takes care of the ball is probably going to win. Go call for a shot. Super Chat Seabass says, when all is said and done,
Starting point is 00:23:15 y'all think Jokic is going to be top ten all time. He can retire today. He top ten. Yeah, he's definitely one of the top five centers of all time already as is. So, I ain't mad at that at all. He's a two-time MVP. I just got Shaq being better than him. be top 10. Yeah, he's definitely one of the top five centers of all time already as is, so I ain't mad at that at all. He's a two-time MVP. I just got Shaq being better than him.
Starting point is 00:23:31 He could be three-time MVP. We shall see. But, yeah, he's going to be top 10. He's one of those ones for sure.
Starting point is 00:23:39 JJJV in the Super Chat says, what does Kawhi and the Clippers have to do to potentially push for the conference finals? Win. Boy, crazy. If you win four games, you get to move on.
Starting point is 00:23:51 But, yeah, if Kawhi going to keep playing like this, it's going to be a real possibility. They got to figure out their rotation, so. They got to get some production off the bench, though. Yeah. Derrick Jones Jr. played good, but Bogey and the rest of them dudes, they just non-existent right now. Come on, we got Nick Batum getting minutes in 2025.
Starting point is 00:24:07 He going to hit a shot, though. He will hit an open shot. They're nonexistent right now. They just need some type of production off the bench. He built for the playoffs. But I seen Patty Mills get off the bench celebrating. I said, that's crazy that we watching them two in 2025. Good dudes.

Starting point is 00:30:09 i'm telling you bro oh it's time for some conversations man offense is too like jalen brunson one-on-one dominant bro like at times it's real stagnant and they couldn't get good shots bro you right bro but i'm sleep on cat not scoring in the fourth ever again bro he he wasn't playing good bro yeah and that's all you're human bro you gonna have a bad game bro it's over bro isolating nixon 20 seconds bro he's cold but that's hard to play like even other guys when they ready to shoot their shots they ain't had the ball he hold the ball for 20 seconds bro man let's just run down the stats like you just brought up. Interesting one to be here.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Look for the Pistons. K went crazy yesterday. Dominated 33-12-3. Then the shoulder hooped out with a clutch shot to win the game with 20-3 as well. Brunson had 37-7, but his shot percentage yesterday, he probably shot the ball 30 times. He got a lot at the free throw line, being a fraud merchant, as we've seen.
Starting point is 00:31:04 But Kale Burgess had 19 and 5. But Captain scored in the second half. I think his last shot came with like 520 in the third quarter, and he played a whole fourth quarter without a touch. That's crazy. All right, bro, I'm asleep, bro. The Pistons did a good job of mucking up the game, and they really should be 2-0.
Starting point is 00:31:19 They was beating their ass the whole game, game one. Yeah, minus a 21-0 run, which we're probably going to never see again. Yeah, but Detroit, they believe, and they got a group that they know who that guy is. Like, K. Cunningham, no, he the guy. But the thing I like about K. Cunningham, he let everybody play. Yeah. He was killing.
Starting point is 00:31:41 But somehow Dennis Schroeder still had the ball in his hand at times. And Dennis made a big shot he played well for them last night I was hyped for him but Cat not touching the ball in the second half
Starting point is 00:31:51 basically this is a recipe for disaster yeah like why we got him if we ain't gonna use him and he got the advantage he going against
Starting point is 00:31:59 a young guy in Durham and give him a chance. Now, I agree. That's Cat. He need the ball. My biggest problem with him yesterday is I seen him having problems
Starting point is 00:32:10 posting up Tobias Harris, and by no means is Tobias Harris small by any means. 6'8", got some size to him. He ain't weak at all. But you all NBA, you got to dominate that matchup. Yeah, they ain't though. They collapsing. It's not easy, though. He was catching the ball on three-point line a lot of times, though.
Starting point is 00:32:24 Like trying to hoop from the outside. Get your big ass in that paint. And certain times, though. He was trying. He was catching the ball on three-point line a lot of times, though. Like, trying to hoop from the outside. Get your big ass in that paint. And certain times, that weren't even helping. He was getting, like, three or four dribbles to get to the paint. I'm like, all right, man. You got to win that matchup. It ain't time to be a six-game guard today. Yeah, he's supposed to.
Starting point is 00:32:34 I guess he's supposed to hoop against Tobias. Ain't no slouch, bro. No, no, no. No disrespect at all. You can't just catch that bitch and spin off and get a lay. You're going to have to work, bro. And that help is on the way. But Cat better than that.
Starting point is 00:32:46 He is, for sure. They got to do duck ends. You got to be able to use Cat's size where you can't just throw it to him and cut and let him go one-on-one against the players. He's quicker than them. And then the help is coming. And Cat, big, he ain't the strongest. I seen James Harden guarding before.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Yeah. I've seen his recipe. When we played James Harden in the playoffs, they put a smaller dude on him, use his quickness, and they strong. I mean, they NBA players. Yeah, most definitely.
Starting point is 00:33:13 But they got to use duck ends where he can get closer to the basket and he can throw and he can use his size to shoot over him. Yeah, quick jump hooks. But they never ran no plays like that because every play was, here come Brunson.
Starting point is 00:33:24 So he was fucking killing, but... He killing, but damn. You're not going to plays like that because every play was, here come Brunson. He was fucking killing. He was killing, but damn, you're not going to win like that. Cat is not Hakeem Olajuwon, bro. He can't just catch. And don't matter who coming, Cat ain't like that, bro. Like he needed, like he said, bro, quick hitters, bro. He is. Give him some quick hitters.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Packs. I don't know. But Brunson, Ice on the whole game, they going to lose. Yeah, he look like Allen Iverson yesterday, bro. They're going to lose, bro. And dude on his ass, the twin. Yeah. He was really locking him up.
Starting point is 00:33:51 They was calling some crazy calls. The referee, that was a terrible officiated game yesterday. Yeah, they was calling some bad calls. I love the twin. I love both the twins. And they ain't dunking no smoke. Nah, bro. He talking bad to him, too.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Out there competing, but... Getting cooked, but talking bad to him. Come on, Tills, man. Cat ain't Theo Radcliffe, my boy. Get my boy going. All I want to say is, shout out to everybody who's just now watching the Detroit Pistons and realizing how good Cade Cunningham is. He had a superstar performance yesterday, but this is what he's been doing all year.
Starting point is 00:34:22 Nah, you a killer, bro. People don't watch small market teams, bro. I was on the Detroit train early. That's a fact. You was on the Cade Cunningham train early. You said he was all NBA early. I said the Detroit Pistons was a good team. That's a fact.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Early. I remember when BN was like, nigga, these niggas is shit, man. BN still feel that way. Did that change? Y'all got to speak for me, King. They beat these Knicks, though, boy. Yeah, they beat the Knicks, bro.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Our old brand of gin is 1,000. Woo. We better ban. They should be happy. Now, you know, going to be the head coach of the Knicks. Mike Malone. Mike Malone. Ooh, you see the play.
Starting point is 00:35:01 Because you look what they gave up for this team. You gave up five first-round pitches for Mikel Bridges. And, man. Bring in Cat. We spent too much money, bro, to lose to the Pistons, bro, in the first round. Mike Malone. I want to ask y'all this question. When I watched that game yesterday around some people that ain't too savvy with basketball,
Starting point is 00:35:18 they was like, so is Cade Kepler here the best player in the series? Fuck no. Yeah. No, bro. He is, bro. Yeah. Who better than him? Let's talk about it.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Brunson? We do the same thing, and I'm 6'6". If you put... Cat got to step it up, bro. Cat the best player in the series. I'm not going to say that, bro. He just didn't have no points, bro. That's one time I'm human, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:40 No disrespect. Cat the most. I'm human, bro. It's hard to be the best player in the series when you a big man. The playoffs is built off guards. I have the ball, bro. You have to eat if I give you the ball.
Starting point is 00:35:55 You see, he can't get the ball. I don't respect y'all niggas who I get it, bro, but saying Kay Cunningham is better than Cat is crazy, bro. He is. In this series right now, he's better than Cat, bro. Not overall as a player, he better than him. But in this series, he's going to be the best player in the series
Starting point is 00:36:11 because the way his team is built is built around him. He's going to look better than Cat in this series, bro. The Knicks was made for Jalen Brunson. It wasn't made for Cat. Cat joined Jalen Brunson. You see where this shit got going? Jalen Brunson. You know who got the appeal?
Starting point is 00:36:27 Very interesting conversation. I know Cat over there pissed, bro. I'll stand down. But there ain't nothing you can say because he was killing. Nah, he is, but like. And they was losing. They was getting their ass beat. Give me the ball, bro.
Starting point is 00:36:39 I'm Cat, bro. Give me the ball. Yeah, bro. You talked about 27 times last night. If that was Joe Zabit, he would have went in the locker room and smacked the shit out of you, bro. Yeah, bro. Cat need to do some shit like that, bro. He need to get some understanding
Starting point is 00:36:49 around there, bro. He need to crash out. Even though that's not his personality, he needs to say something. You need to become your personality, bro, so you can hit the ball. I think Tibbs gonna make some adjustments, though. I believe in Tibbs.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Yeah, and I know Tibbs my guy, but... I think he gonna... I'm nothing on them losing to Detroit. I pay what I weigh, though, so if they lose, I get it. But, damn, I never saw this coming. Bro, look at the shot selection on this team last night. Miles O'Brien got three shots. Mitch Robinson got two.
Starting point is 00:37:14 Jalen Brunson got 27. Mikael Bridges got 18. Cat got 11. OG had 10. That's crazy, bro. Because at the end of the game, bro, when you need somebody to make a shot, they not going to hit it, bro, because they ain't touch the ball, really. You got to use everybody throughout the game, bro.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Man, nothing on having the same points, bro. It's Moses Moody, bro. Shout out to Moses, bro. He a whole family, bro, but he's quiet, bro. Moses got a crazy straightest move. I'm like, where the fuck do you see Moses Moody's name at? He in the West. Where the fuck is Moses Moody's name at?
Starting point is 00:37:47 What was that down there? Miles McBride? Oh, I was like, where is Moses Moody at? Where the fuck is Moses Moody at? Fuck you, Moses. No, I'm just kidding. Yeah, that's crazy. Miles McBride.
Starting point is 00:38:02 I don't know why I said Moses Moody. Oh, that's hilarious. I'm like, where the fuck is Moses Moody at? He just went out to the business. He man, Miles McBride. I don't know why I said Moses Moody. Oh, that's hilarious. I'm like, damn it, where's Moses Moody at? He just scored out to the Pistons. He got nothing to do with you. Now, that's what I'm supposed to do is check me, my fault.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Miles McBride. That is hilarious. But shout out to Cade Cunningham. You know why he a hell of a player? Because he was passing on the ball in the second half and they wasn't doing shit with it. At one point,
Starting point is 00:38:20 I watched him hard away miss three threes in a row. Zero for eight is not going to cut it. But they didn't work on the soul, K. And shout out to Paul Reed. He had a big fourth quarter yesterday. Big fourth quarter. Malik Beasley did not really show up yesterday. He went two for nine. He had a couple open shots
Starting point is 00:38:34 in the clutch that could have got it for him. But like you said, man, shout out to Dennis Schroeder. He had one of the craziest NBA seasons of all time. He started off killing in Brooklyn. He went to the Wizards. I mean, not the Wizards. Excuse me, the Warriors. And they was ass. Then he got to the Pistons, and now he contributed to the playoffs. Man, big shot from him yesterday.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Big shot, bro. He played really good. And he competing defensively. I mean, we know he gonna do that, but he made some big shots. Yeah. He had two big threes. He had one that bounced all over the rim, and then the next one was just clutch. I was surprised he had the ball at that time, but K gave it up.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Yeah. Yeah. I wanted to ask you this. We talked about the payment situation for him. You think it's restored now with Dennis? You know, it's kind of iffy. He's playing hard in Brooklyn, and then, you know, the Warriors kind of messed up his stats.
Starting point is 00:39:16 You think now he's possibly back into that starting role? He going to get a nice payday in offense? No, I think he going to go back to Detroit and play this role for the rest of his career. This six-man, seven-man, whatever, backup PG role that he playing with them, I think Detroit going to realize that that's an important piece for them. Obviously, going down the stretch, you see what he did for y'all. So I think he'll be back in Detroit.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Most definitely. And not to foreshadow too much of the situation, Cade is a superstar for sure. I think it's solidified itself so far. Who's going to be his running mate? because he's got a decent role play but who y'all think should be a good running mate or who they should go get to pair with him to for the future i don't think they need to pair anybody i think duran or whatever his name darren whatever you're saying i think he's a him and k got a great connection with the lives and stuff so i think he's gonna be a button a star coming up um he's young would he probably 21 yeah yeah he got a lot of going to be a button, a star coming up. He young, what are you probably 21?
Starting point is 00:40:06 Yeah. Yeah. He got a lot of potential to be a really a star. It's like a one, two punch, not saying Shaq and Kobe, but you know, that kind of vibe,
Starting point is 00:40:13 a big man in the guard. I think they got a chance to build around now and just keep getting solid role veteran players. Yeah. Don't start adding superstars and let the twin develop because that's your star i like that the twin gonna turn into something he might not be jason tatum but he sure can be jaylen brown yeah i like that because right now you don't want to take away from kate bro he really coming into his own let's let him do his thing bro sure and you got you know jayden i'll be coming back off injury next year.
Starting point is 00:40:45 So you have some more firepower off the bench. I do like that idea of Dennis standing there being that six man backup point guard. That's a perfect fit for him. The type of people you need, bro. It's like the Dylan Brooks, Dennis Schroeder. You need them, mess up the game, energy. You need them type of people.
Starting point is 00:40:58 All right, before I go to the super chat, Jeff, you say this all the time, it's not a series. So then I'm saying you still want that. No, it's a series, bro. Both of them, Denver and the clippers and now you got detroit and uh the knicks do you feel like the knicks should be a little bit of um oh they concerned bro it's about to be so fucking live in detroit yeah but that's the best place i know the knicks gonna win one on the road though because uh it's a lot of pressure like being in this situation before when you still went on the road and then you gotta go home you expect to win like they expect you to win it's a lot of pressure
Starting point is 00:41:38 you watch a lot of people have super bad games when they get home because they did it you know they played on the road you feel good you're going home you're like shit it's us now it's over with it'd be a lot of pressure boy very interesting that situation and the fans make it worse when you play at home really yeah because like you know they'd be hype as hell for you but if a team going a little run they start doing all that oh like getting uneasy you seen Knicks fans. They was uneasy in the motherfucker. Then, you know, they going to run. Fans go crazy. But once you start missing shots, every shot feel a little like, oh.
Starting point is 00:42:14 I always like the road games, bro. It's just us. We ain't got to worry about nothing else, bro. Your fans will be like, don't miss three or four in a row. You like road games better than the whole game? I love road games, bro. Do your whole career hooping? Yeah, because it's just the team.
Starting point is 00:42:29 You ain't got to worry about all the, like he said, the fans, all that outside noise. Because shit going to happen in the game, bro. Fans is emotional. When you on the road, you don't got to deal with that shit. Just us. Nobody give a fuck. Like, if you miss a shot, like some of these road guys miss a couple shots in the game, the fans going to start saying shit.
Starting point is 00:42:45 Like, what is he doing in there? Take him out. Come on. Get him out. You're not going to hear that on the road, bro. No. It's us. Come on.
Starting point is 00:42:50 We got it. You know what I'm saying? It's just the guys. You know how it is. I guarantee them Knicks fans start saying shit. What the fuck are you doing, Cat? They probably said it for sure. Bro, they were saying it.
Starting point is 00:43:00 100%. Most definitely. Hey, listen. Bill just got you for cat already. He got the first playoff win for Detroit Pistons since 2008. They have not won a playoff game in over 15 years. So, shout out to him for that. Shout out to K for sure, for sure.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Super Chat J Smooth says, I think the Detroit Pistons should trade for Bradley Beal or Zion next year. That's how you spell Beal? Okay. Beal, nah. Brad Beal, fuck it. Don't matter. K Cunningham needs help.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Shout out to the K and the Cunningham, for sure. No, they do not know. You get Brad Bill. No. Shit, I'm trading Dern for Zion. I'm not, bro. I can rely on Dern. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 00:43:38 He plays every game, pretty much. Zion and Isaiah Stewart at your four and five is crazy. But if you can make it make sense, I'm not mad at the Zion and K, pick and roll. I'm cool, bro. Nah, bro. They're going to be too short, bro. Too short, bro. It's 6'6", bro.

Starting point is 00:46:26 You're going to start seeing some crazy calls. You'll see. Some cooking in this guy. Shout out A, bro. Yeah, shout out A. He's special. What's up? J. McDaniels is going to have foul trouble tonight.
Starting point is 00:46:36 Damn. Remember I said it. If he got three fouls before the first half, we're going to know something. Yeah, he's going to have foul trouble tonight. Man, when we talk about that game one, man, Nas Reed really went crazy for sure. Jaden McDaniels went crazy in the second half.
Starting point is 00:46:48 They hit a lot of threes, bro. Record setting, actually. Like a lot. I don't know if they're going to keep doing that type of shit. Hell nah. Yeah. That's how it is. Okay, so did the Lakers need to make any adjustments to win this game? No, they just was hot, bro.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Okay. I think the Lakers are going to win. They was hot as hell, bro. That's the best you can play. That was a good dub for them, though you could play. That was a good dub for them, though. It was. That was a good dub.
Starting point is 00:47:07 They made it. They made it seriously six games now. Yeah. Now, you talked about this. Probably five, but... Them hunting Luka. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:47:16 He still had 38, but, man, they was, you know what I'm saying? The offense is not ever going to be the problem. We know you're getting 38. Okay. You have to guard somebody, brother.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Just a little bit. You ain't got to lock nobody up. Just guard a little bit. You need a little effort. Yeah, so we can help you and shit. Like, straight line drives and just getting killed. Come on, bro.
Starting point is 00:47:36 Yeah. His defense is so funny, bro. Like, James Harden's defense is funny. Yeah, they just basically move. But Lucas' shit is funnier. Lucas get an arm. Lucas get it on. He like it. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Lucas outlet before they shoot. Like James Harden, he just at least swipe at the ball. Yeah, nah. He don't play defense at all either,
Starting point is 00:47:59 but Lucas is crazy. Now, it was funny because once upon a time we had a reel about who played better defense between the two. Now it's even crazier. Because Jay Farnley is a year 15, and Lucas still played worse defense than him.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Yeah, I'm taking James. Jay Farnley steals the ball. Yeah, that's right. He hit that passing lane hard. He'll switch on the post comfortably. For sure. All right, LeBron had 19 in game one. What did he got to do to get it up?
Starting point is 00:48:25 More than that. Okay. Look at these stats. He onlyBron had 19 in game one. What did he got to do now to get a dub? More than that. Okay. Just look at these stats. He only had two other people in double figures besides him. Austin Reeves had 16. There's going to be some home cooking, man. Lakers might beat them by 30 tonight. Damn.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Okay. We need to send a message, bro, because they feeling good. He and them feeling good, bro. I think they need more out of Austin Reeves than LeBron. Austin Reeves got to show up. He had 16, though. Not too bad. He's third option, bro.
Starting point is 00:48:48 LeBron, get your 25, and we will win, bro. Come on. Okay. See the rest of people? Sure. We will stay tuned. It should be a good game for sure. Made for This Mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners

Starting point is 00:53:29 Who y'all got tonight? Obviously Lakers? Yep. Okay. Yeah, I think the Lakers are going to get it. All right, we shall see. Another game of the night. You know what time it is.
Starting point is 00:53:37 We in Gainsborough is with it tonight. NBA TV. Hey, they disrespectful for putting us on NBA TV. Yeah, not the fucking Memphis Grizzlies. After them getting beat by fucking 50, y'all decided that the world needs to see more of that? That's crazy. I do not want to see Memphis on TV no more. They made a crazy post on Reese Halliburton, too.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Y'all see this? Yeah. Out of pocket, bro. Yeah, man. But they put a what? Who the most, the NBA players voted who the most overrated NBA player is. He won by a landslide. And that's from Central.
Starting point is 00:54:07 That ain't from my guys. That's from Tim. Obviously, after this playoff run, we're going to have a different conversation. That's real. That's real. We're going to have a different conversation after this playoff run, bro. We're going to put some numbers next to each other. Do you agree?
Starting point is 00:54:20 The most overrated? Nah. I'm taking Rudy Goldberg. I actually like Tyrese. We got like banter every time we see each other. But the most overrated basketball player is Kawhi. He's a good player. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:36 I'm going to say I'll take Rudy Goldberg. He on the back still. I'm taking Rudy. Tyrese. Is Dan Lillard coming back? Because he wants to kill him. Load up the clip. That's why this game shouldard coming back? Because he wants to kill him. Oh, load up the clip. That's why this game should be on prime time TV.
Starting point is 00:54:50 We built a rivalry. Well, I guess it ain't a rivalry because we beat the ass. But, you know, we built it back and forth. That should be. I'm just speaking facts. That's DJ. Talk your shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:58 That's crazy when you ain't won a championship. It's crazy. Oh. Oh, nigga, that's even got Chip and Jonas. He don't care. He told me he was going to beat his ass. And I beat your ass. He did say that.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Hey, shout out to my nigga P. Skills Walker. He said, who you talking to, nigga? He said, you know that. I like that. Well, that's not basketball. I ain't got nothing to do with that. What do you mean? If Dane plays tonight, if he don't play tomorrow, I ain't got nothing to do with that.
Starting point is 00:55:24 That's the grown man hands. I ain't the third party to that. I was about to say, Dane's a way better basketball player than him, bro. I'm not – top 75. I'm not disagreeing with you in that situation. All I'm saying is I want to win the game tonight. What do Tyrese be saying? Tyrese be popping shit.
Starting point is 00:55:38 He do. He popping shit. He popping shit. He's got two little boys, bro. Yeah, bro. I whooped shit last year, bro. I went to the conference finals, bro. I won a gold medal, bro. I'm cold. I had a bad start to my season, but I the boys, bro. Yeah, bro. I whooped you last year, bro. I went to the conference finals, bro. I won a gold medal, bro.
Starting point is 00:55:46 I'm cold. I had a bad start to my season, but I'm cold, bro. Realistically, I'm 20-12. They don't respect him, bro. He was arguing with a dude on Brooklyn. Yeah. He should not have turned to Wofford. Yeah, they don't respect Tyrese or something, bro.
Starting point is 00:55:58 Hey, that's cool. Don't respect him. We're going back to the conference finals, baby. Tap in. It's because he likes skin. It's hard being mixed and tough. You got to pick a side, bro. There was so much Jason Kidd could do, y'all.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Just go play your game, Kings. Yeah. There's so much niggas could do, bro. True. For sure. Niggas don't believe it. No. They don't.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Like, they don't believe it. No. Bro, you not like that, bro. And to be fair, the first thing about who can fight that name is Lyle Super. I'm top 75.
Starting point is 00:56:30 Yeah, but you just don't believe it. I think he be talking shit because JJ over there, bro. Like, I ain't gonna do shit, bro. Nah, he was talking shit before I can give Tyrese that. Was he?
Starting point is 00:56:40 I don't like the frontrunner allegations, bro, because even last year in the playoffs, before Game 7 started, he was talking shit to Gardner. He wouldn't drop some niggas. I'm going to give Tyrese a bit.
Starting point is 00:56:48 He's talking about fighting. Well, I'm not getting that. That's the moment. Tyrese ain't talking about beating his ass, though. The reason JJ on the team is because Milwaukee was hoeing him. It was hoeing him. Yeah. And now it's not.
Starting point is 00:56:57 He's trying to hone him again. But I'm saying Tyrese talks shit like, I'm going to do what you do. I'm going to talk shit in basketball terms. He ain't saying, nigga, I'll beat your ass. I see Dave saying, I'm going to do what you do. I'm going to talk shit in basketball terms. He ain't saying, nigga, I'll beat your ass. I see Dame saying, I'm going to beat your ass. Dame low-key a crash out. You my nigga, Dame, but you a crash out. Dame be crash out. You know what I'm
Starting point is 00:57:15 saying? So I hope he plays so they can really go at it. I do want Dame to play, but Tyrese is going to play better. Dame ain't hooped. I don't know, bro. He ain't play basketball. And Tyrese.
Starting point is 00:57:28 This is why Kawhi so good, bro, because he can do that and come out and get 40. But this is another thing. Dame ain't got the same freedom that Tyrese got. Tyrese ain't playing with nobody really raw like that. I mean, Pascal. Pascal, cool. I'll tell you. I'll tell you.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Hold tight, bro. Yeah, but he can't, though, because Giannis is like, I don't give a shit. I don't give a shit. I didn't get 50. Y'all niggas do that. If it was me, I would let him.
Starting point is 00:57:50 If this was Tyrese going against Dame in Portland, he'd be fucked up. He'd be in trouble. Because he battled real superstars like Russ and all them. Paul George. Steph.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Yeah, he didn't win. That's still the hardest ending of a dynasty. Well, that wasn't a dynasty, but the hardest ending of a team I've ever seen. Yeah. He's in a franchise, bro. he didn't win out of it. That's still the hardest ending of a dynasty. Well, that wasn't a dynasty, but the hardest ending of a team I've ever seen. He didn't battle with the best of the best. So that's why he really talking like, you ain't none of them. I know that's what he thinking.
Starting point is 00:58:14 You are sad, bro. That's what he was telling you. You are sad, bro. Matter of fact, now I want to whoop you. He's like, you not on that, bro. I've been against top 75. i didn't send people home you know i don't know but guess what they said on that shit last year we whooped that ass regular season end season tournament he was on the court for that 26 and 15 so dave is gonna come back probably not
Starting point is 00:58:39 in the best shape he could be and we gonna hunt him thanks he gonna hoop because he damien lillard but we gonna hunt him when I'm picking rows. Thanks. And if Kyle Kuzma out there doing what he did listen I told y'all when Christian Billison go I'll wipe my forehead. That's the real killer.
Starting point is 00:58:52 I wish Dane was in Portland against him bro. That's why Tyrese Dane one of my favorite point guards of all time. He one of the coldest. He like you can't crash out
Starting point is 00:59:01 out here for real. You can't really kill me. You can't. And Dane really want like bro you can't crash out out here for real. You can't really kill me. You can't. And Dane really was like, bro, you are not shit, bro. I wish, but I wish, that's why I wish him and Giannis had that relationship. I feel like if Giannis was American, he would understand. If I was Giannis, I would be like, kill him. So I could talk shit.
Starting point is 00:59:20 For real, bro. I got you. I got your back, bro. And I would, boy, if I was coaching him, I would let Dame hunt him. Because I know Tyrese ain't gardening at all. Tyrese about to be running.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Nah, Tyrese about to be running. That's what I'm saying. We're going to find you. Oh, yeah. Sit this pick right here. He going to get this work. Yeah, but you know what? He going to be on Torian Prince.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Come on, Prince. Come sit this screen. We are fine with you, brother. Yeah. But that's what they was doing. They was trapping with two. And the crazy part, Doc, you know how I feel about Rick, up and down situation.
Starting point is 00:59:48 But Doc also, when he got to press carpets, he said, yeah, man, it's kind of hard to get a rhythm when you don't have the ball. Fam, you could drop and play for Kyle Kuzma right now. Right today. Kyle Kuzma just ain't. Kyle Kuzma ain't have a rebound, bro. Ain't not. What about that shit?
Starting point is 00:59:59 I told y'all that wasn't going to work. I would give Kyle Kuzma some bail, bro. I'm not. I am, bro. I'm human, bro. Y'all don't be giving would give Kyle Kuzma some bail, bro. I'm not. I am, bro. I'm human, bro. Y'all don't be giving niggas the benefit of the doubt, bro. You didn't get a rebound, a assist, nothing? Kyle Kuzma don't fit.
Starting point is 01:00:12 Cardio Kuz, bro. Last year he made a tweet. He said, nobody wants to be a Detroit Pistons. His name was just like floating out of the table of terms. He the new Tony Snell, bro. The real Snell. He the real Tony Snell, bro. The real Snell. He the real Tony Snell, bro. All right, who y'all got tonight, man?
Starting point is 01:00:28 Which do you think the Bucks need to do if they want to get tonight? We know Giannis is going to kill. What adjustments do they need to make tonight? If the game don't play, man, I'm going with it. And I never say this, man. I'm rolling with the Pacers, bro. Okay. But if the game is playing tonight, you rolling?
Starting point is 01:00:39 Yeah, I'm going with the Bucks. I don't think they're going to go down 2-0, bro. Okay. I'm going to go with the Pacers, bro. Tyree's really my dog. I want the Bucs to win, but the way the Bucs play, bro, it's just hard for me to see it. Like a game not there, bro, they don't have nobody.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Yeah. Yeah. That's tough. That's tough. Because I just, like I said bro I just don't see Giannis saying bro go get this nigga
Starting point is 01:01:08 fuck it I'm gonna sit this one out tonight nah Giannis didn't care he was going with the triple team he don't need you to sit it out he just nah I'm just saying let me go kill
Starting point is 01:01:17 let me kill still gonna get 25 let me kill this nigga let me kill bro damn yeah I don't like that I got the Pacers
Starting point is 01:01:24 if the Pacers. If the Pacers win this game, it's over. Dame, rest up. You got a very important offseason coming up. Pacers in six regardless. Tamron Johnson Jr. in the Super Chat said, Tim Lager says, Real finals contenders have legit closer and bucket getter when everything else isn't working.
Starting point is 01:01:40 Who was that on y'all Hawks team, T? 2014, 2015. We didn't have one. That's why we lost, nigga. Like like when you say a bucket getter you have like somebody who averages 25 points we had a bunch of dudes that's averaged 16 17 points i mean you have people that can score but if you're being honest with yourself like that wasn't our roles our team wasn't designed to be that i think everybody on our team wasn't designed to be that i think everybody on our team could score like somebody told me jeff go get 20 points we don't care how
Starting point is 01:02:09 you get to just go get i can get you 20 points i can get you 25 but that wasn't how our team was designed we would have been terrible that makes a lot of sense like our team was designed for everybody to get 18 points but that that was our problem, too. If everybody didn't get 18 points, we wasn't winning. So unless somebody had a six-point game, it was over with. Like you said, when y'all got in the postseason, y'all had a couple injuries that didn't go your way. Kyle would get hurt.
Starting point is 01:02:41 Al, whoever it was. We was banking on them 16. So when them 16 wasn't there, it was over with. Most definitely. Good question. All right, man. Thunder Grizzlies tonight.
Starting point is 01:02:52 Hey, man. I don't want to watch. No, I don't want to watch. Dang, niggas deflated. I don't want to watch. What we watched this weekend was a joke. That's ridiculous, bro. Jaren Jackson, bro.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Hey, I'm going to let y'all do y'. That's ridiculous, bro. Jaren Jackson, bro. Hey, I'm gonna let y'all do y'all thing. Park to his finest. I don't want no smoke. I don't want no smoke. I think the Jive 3s are amazing. Shout out to Jive. That's a crazy shoe, but for him to have to debut that shoe in that
Starting point is 01:03:19 built-to-ass situation is crazy. It's not a hit, bro. Them Jives are fire. They are fire. No, they're elite. They are fire. Took a hit for that, though. God damn. I'm nothing on the Grizzlies, bro. Told y'all, bro.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Trey Zion for Jared. Facts. Fuck it. I told y'all. Pull the trigger, bro. Pull the trigger, bro. I am not a fan of the Grizzlies, bro. Give me back my AUT, baby.
Starting point is 01:03:41 Yeah, at least we'll have some type of fight, bro. Yeah, Jared will be cool in New Orleans, bro. We'll lock by 18 instead of 50, bro. Jaren will be cool in New Orleans, bro. We'll lock by 18 instead of 50, bro. Jaren and Trey Murphy, they cool, bro. Let them figure that out down there, bro.
Starting point is 01:03:51 To get 50 ball, the FJ got his foot. Yeah, you got to go south, bro, real south. Yeah, I'm nothing. I'm cool, bro. Got to go New Orleans, brother. To get 50 ball
Starting point is 01:04:01 and Shay only have 16, what we doing there? I'm not a fan, bro. It's because they lost their coach, bro. I'm looking at whoever the coach is right now, bro. He look lost, bro. He look like me, bro. My first year when I was coaching the party, bro.
Starting point is 01:04:15 We was playing goddamn fishers. What is this? What I'm supposed to say? Who we get beat by when we play a car and water? Oh, yeah. We got a 16-2. Niggas are sitting down. Can't do nothing to them.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Keep playing hard. Keep fighting. They look like me. We can't even say that no more. We just watch the game. It gets just set down. You try. You know what you're saying?
Starting point is 01:04:38 You just try to get out of there, bro. Hill Quarter's long. What? He didn't know what to do. He didn't know who to sub he put in a JV two quarters long he looking at people
Starting point is 01:04:49 that ain't played on you you ready hell no I ain't gonna hold you they should've had a running clock I don't know
Starting point is 01:04:55 what's the playoffs but they deserve to run a clock cause they was getting the sleeves beat off them in the first quarter no offense
Starting point is 01:05:01 Scottie Pimmons Jr. is a good guy good player but he was subbing him man like he was about to say today Scottie Pippen Jr. is a good guy good player but he was subbing him like he was about to save the day I'm like
Starting point is 01:05:07 Scottie should have gotten him before he let it go before he let it go I'm like Scottie Pippen I'm saying Scottie Pippen's good

Starting point is 01:05:38 about how matchups matter, bro. I agree. It's the coaching, bro. It's the coaching, but Jaren Jackson, bro. Oh, Taylor Jenkins had them, but leaving it,
Starting point is 01:05:47 his rotations was totally different. They don't even play Luke Kennard. Which is crazy. Like, bro. Is he hurt? Because what did he do? No, he needs to play. Yeah, Jay Huff was getting a lot of minutes early in the season as well.
Starting point is 01:06:00 I know maybe the playoff project got a little bit tighter. Luke Kennard needs to be starting. Yeah. Nah, bro. He needs to be playing for sure. He don't get in. He don't get in. But it's just like your coach know the pulse of your team. Yeah. And they basically took the coach away and added whoever
Starting point is 01:06:16 they wanted. And that's where they're getting these results. They karma now, bro. How many rebounds Jerry Jackson have? Three. No defensive rebounds did Jared Jackson have? Three. No defensive rebounds. In how many minutes? Please scroll over for me, please.
Starting point is 01:06:32 Probably 40. Jared, that's crazy. That's crazy, big dog. Two for 13, three rebounds. It's not going to get it done, bro. Listen, y'all. This is my beef with y'all sometimes. He hasn't rebounded all year, y'all.
Starting point is 01:06:46 Why do y'all want him to get in the playoffs and average 10? Y'all been calling me a hater all year. Jaren, you a great basketball player. You are. You have not averaged no fucking rebounds all year, and you are an all-star sender, bro. He got to get sick. That is not okay in any game, bro.
Starting point is 01:07:03 It's the playoffs, bro. We play time for it, bro. Same thing. Jeff does the same position. Nah, he can't get three, bro. He gotta get sick. That is not okay in the NBA, bro. It's the playoffs, bro. Same thing, Jeff. That's the same position. Nah, he can't get three, though. He can't get three. You have no defense rebound, bro. You're not trying, bro. He played with Zach Eady, bro. You're not trying, nigga.
Starting point is 01:07:20 You didn't get one defensive rebound, bro. Shout out to everybody that apologized to me on Twitter, too, because y'all been giving me hell about Jared Jackson. He's not trying. The Memphis fans are pissed. There's no way he's trying. Shout out to Triple J, man. Get Wilson to the Grizzlies, man.
Starting point is 01:07:33 I keep moving, bro. You've been doing this. You was an all-star, not a rebounder. So for them to be mad at you now, I'm on your side, Jared Jackson. Leave me the fuck alone, bro. Hey, that is fair. I'll be consistent. Yeah, it's like, get out of here, man. It's still out of pocket. Please be consistent. Respect. For alone, bro. Hey, that is fair.

Starting point is 01:08:18 It was horrible. But that Warriors defense was real. Obviously, the Rockets would make more shots, but they play great defense. Great, great defense. They was trying to go at Steph, but Steph was locking up. Yeah, Steph wasn't going at all. Steph is going to at least fight. He ain't the greatest defender, but he's going to fight.
