It was a belt to ass, man.
We did the best we could, man.
Shout out to y'all for pulling up with us.
We made it work because that game was terrible.
Let's go ahead and get to it, man.
The Heat eliminated the Bulls yesterday.
1-0-9 to 90.
Belt to ass situation for sure.
They managed to play the Hawks in the final playoff spot.
Man, Tyler Hero, your favorite white boy, went crazy with 38-5.
Wig hooped out as well with 20-9.
Bam had 15-12.
Josh Giddey, not for lack of trying, because he was shooting the hell
out of the basketball yesterday. Had 25-10.
And Kobe White, man, let us down.
First team all 520. He went
520 for the field yesterday, man, with 17 points.
He went out like he's supposed to, 520.
Come on, man. You know the vibes, man.
Shoot the ball anyway, brother.
Man, Tyler Hero looked like the best player on the floor yesterday by far. Yeah, he was walking past him, man. You know the vibes, man. Shoot the ball anyway, brother. Man, Tyler Hero looked like the best player on the floor yesterday by far.
Yeah, he was walking past him, bro.
He is, bro.
At the beginning of the game, I said, look, y'all.
Look, it's already happening, bro.
They're not playing no D.
They selling already, bro.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He started off the game 8 for 8.
You know what time it is.
The fix was in, man.
The fix was in.
That's what it looked like.
Yeah, bro.
Him walk like, literally, that's no exaggeration. He was walking to the lane, in that's what it looked like yeah bro him walk like literally that's no exaggeration
he was walking
to the lane bro
walking bro
I said yeah
the Bulls ready
to go to Cancun
I never
I feel them though
I've been there before
what are we about
to win for
what are we about
to win for bro
now I gotta go to work
for extra two weeks
for no reason
I'm about to go play
the Cavs and get swept
bro I ain't about to do that
yeah let me start my summer.
All right, man.
So, let's start with it.
Playing last one.
Your Hawks.
The Heat.
We're getting a dub.
They playing in Atlanta.
Trey goes up at the crib.
Okay.
I'm going to take the Hawks, man.
Going with the Hawks?
Definitely the Heat, bro.
You're going with the Heat?
Definitely the Heat.
Trey Young wants to lose, too, bro.
You see what he did last game, bro?
He gets fed up.
No, he was mad.
He's still mad.
He's going to be mad again this game.
So over or under, Trae Young taking the first half?
Nah.
I'm always going to take his overs now.
Okay.
He's going to get his numbers, but they ain't going to win.
No, it's about a tech.
Oh, a tech?
Yeah, he might get another tech.
If he didn't take the first half, he's crashing out.
Yeah, he might get another tech. That's why the take the first half, he's crashing out. Yeah, he might get another tech.
That's why the play in is BS, though.
I told y'all.
Yeah, we shouldn't even be watching this right now.
Miami Heat, it was 10.
We shouldn't even be watching this right now.
Biggest work so hard to make it to the playoffs.
Ain't no playoffs.
Don't try to get paid extra for making the playoffs.
Yeah, that's cheating, bro.
I got to lose to a Tim Seed, bro.
This is crazy.
But the real life, though, the playoffs is kind of tricky, though.
The playoffs is really just for the love of the game.
Because people, you get paid by the game.
Okay.
And them extra games is not on your paycheck.
All right?
And if you're making $40 million a year, a year 50 million a year you're really losing
you know i mean because you're only getting i see what you said if you win the whole thing you take
home like three three hundred something like that yeah but you play well you gotta win 16 games
and let's say your series go seven're liable to play however many more games.
True, I never thought about it like that.
You need to get paid for them.
So you get a bonus if you get past the first round.
Does it start to, like, semi-conference?
I mean, they go up.
So the higher your seed is, and so the Cavaliers winning all the way through, or whoever, OKC, the number one overall,
they'll make a lot more money than if the 10 temp seed made it all the way to the championship.
It's the higher your seed.
Gotcha.
See, that's education for y'all, man.
Yeah.
Damn, I did not know that.
I just thought they had playoff bonuses.
I didn't know it was a baseball record, too.
That make sense?
Yeah, you get playoff bonuses.
I mean, everybody get a bonus, but the higher your seed is in the playoffs.
Damn.
Well.
Well, that's how it used to be.
Shit, I don't know now with this play.
No, it probably is.
If we're not being too intrusive, what was it like when you got that first
Houston conference?
When I got from Atlanta?
Yeah.
It was like once I think I had bought a car.
Out the gate.
Or a house.
But I ran a property action.
Oh, damn.
That was responsible.
Yeah.
And you get an extra 100K. What you want? I'll give it to Mike so he can buy me a house. I bought a rental property actually. Oh damn, that was responsible. And you get an extra 100K, what you want?
I'll give it to
Mike so he can buy me a house.
Give it to your artist?
That's the least I can do for you.
I bought that rental property.
Bam, that's fire.
But yeah, man,
what does the Bulls have to do?
We talked about Kobe White.
We talked about Josh Giddey.
Obviously, it's quiet for them.
What do they need to do to rebuild going forward?
Jeff was not fucking with Josh Giddey last night.
Josh Giddey was on goal yesterday.
I don't like his game.
Somebody got to shoot the ball, though.
They're getting smacked. I'll let y'all have that.
They're getting smacked.
Somebody got to get some shots up.
Yeah, I mean, I get what he was doing, but the way he play, he gets stats.
I don't like,
I don't like the way he play.
He just look crazy.
He don't look the best,
but he's effective.
He gets stats.
And respectfully,
I'm looking at this roster right now.
Yeah.
Can't nobody tell me
I can't shoot on this team.
Yeah.
Yeah, but him playing point
just don't look good to me.
Like,
he should be like
a secondary ball handler.
Like, you could, he can't shoot good enough to be the secondary ball handler but
i don't like him bringing it up every time it's just no i don't either but on this team he got
to like especially the way if kobe white play like that i got to bro five for 20 he need to
learn how to be like joe engels joe eng Ingles can shoot really good But you know how he was like that secondary ball handler
Or he do Turk a little
That's who he need to try to make his game
I mean we know he not going to be the guy
On no team
Nah but he had the ball enough
Like he was the guy
Cause nobody
Who else was going to do it
Like they have nobody else
They need to trade for somebody
Cause shit that ain't the recipe right there
They have nobody else bro
Yeah this roster
Definitely is going to look different next year.
Young Matus right there, he got some promise, the rookie hooping out,
but my thing is, where do they need to draft?
Just best player available?
Yeah.
Okay, it starts there.
They got to start somewhere.
They got to find somebody.
Hopefully they get a top five pick or something because shit.
This ain't going to work.
I hate the Bulls.
Where's the Bulls?
I swear, I watched them. I hate them. I hate the Bulls where's the Bulls project oh yeah it's gonna
be a little bit higher than that 13 I better find a gym boy yeah boy they better they better
get in their top 10 for show they need that they need a Dylan Harper, Jeremiah Fields, Aiden Bailey back. They need Jeremiah Fields or something, bro.
What you going to do with Kobe White?
Trade.
It's time to go, bro.
You've been doing this for a long time.
You've been tricking us for a while now.
For real, bro.
Knock out to a standstill.
We tired of this end of the season run, bro.
I'm not going to let you do that, bro.
I average 20, bro.
I mean, you average 20, but it's the same thing, bro.
You trick us every time.
Respect your 20.
You could go play somewhere else.
He'd be a quality player on another team.
He'd be helping six men somewhere.
He'll be a great back-up point guard, bro.
A great one.
This guy has stats over the years, man.
But he do this every year.
The Bulls be so awful.
He go on this run.
And they know he doing it. They don't even care. They like, man, this is what he do this area the boys be so awful he going this run and they know he doing it they don't even

Shit.
Yeah, I can't believe Dallas didn't get Austin Reeves for Luka, though.
But yeah, both of those is crazy.
That's wild.
Matter of fact, Nico, you suck.
Because how you didn't get Austin Reeves, bro?
It came out today, though, that Nico, the owner, did all that.
Yeah, I know he did.
It came out today, bro.
Nico was being cussed out for no reason.
He did shit, bro.
I would have quit.
My fault, Nico.
He did a damn thing, bro.
I would have quit if I was you, Nico.
The moment he told me Trey Lucas.
He got to sit through every game and hear that shit, bro.
So who did?
The owner, bro.
And you know what's crazy?
We all knew damn well that he could do that.
The owner was there chilling, bro.
Listening to this shit

Hey, when Nico leave that job, his podcast appearance is going to be elite.
He got some shit to say, bro.
I pray to Lord.
Pull up to 520, bro.
Yes.
We going to ask you real questions.
Don't go to anybody else.
No.
I was like, Nico, tell me why that man did you like that.
I don't give a fuck if he used to hoop in high school.
That's the first question.
I don't give a fuck what you owe.
I was like, why did you let that man tell you to trade Luke and Donch and not get Austin Reed back?
He ain't going to be like, well, he said he ain't give a damn who he got back.
He won't go.
Yeah, start snitching, bro.
Free yourself.
I just couldn't imagine going to work and everybody saying, boom!
Imagine walking into the office or the warehouse, bro.
And you ain't the one really responsible for it, bro.
Good fans are outside on the steps of a Sun and saying,
party, go to work.
They're threatening his life, bro.
They're like, bro, I didn't even have no control of this.
Oh, man, that's hilarious.
But the thing that made it worse, they said he started saying stuff
like he wasn't in shape.
I'd have been like, no, I didn't say that.
Unless I'm really saying it.
I'd say, that's hate, bro.
I'd be like, no.
The owner said that.
You can't say that.
Fire.
Fire me, bro.
Pull up and say, boo.
That's how you do it.
You're never going to get another.
You're never going to get another.
When you pull up to the abortion clinic
And be like
No
Hey man
No bro
What is he doing bro
Hey man
What the
What is he doing bro
Moving on
I don't know why I'm looking at him
What is he doing
Shout out to the Kings.
Oh, my God.
Light the beam next year.
Jesus Christ.
But, yeah, man, that GM got fired because he decided to see the Chicago Bulls
last year and say, yeah, that's a good idea.
It got both of them players and then Trey Deere and Fox,
so it'll get well soon to him.
Who that coach going to be?
Because I don't know if Doug Christie is going to keep that job or not.
I don't know.
They might keep Doug, man.
He's just in a bad spot.
He did a good job with this group the best he could.
Yeah, they started off good for a second.
I mean, he did the best he could, bro.
They ended the season well, bro.
They did, bro.
I mean, they lost to a better team.
It is what it is.
Yeah.
Most definitely.
Now, listen, last offseason we talked about Klay.
He could have went to the Lakers, but unfortunately He made a decision That didn't turn out too good
Should he try to get up
Out of there
Or should he just
You know what I'm saying
Hold put
Hold put because
It's about to get greater
As soon as Kyrie get right bro
They're going to have a nice team
But Kyrie ain't going to be back
For a minute though
Yeah but
Just hold
He probably going to miss
The whole year man
You think so
Is it
It ain't payday time for Kyrie, is it?
I think it's close.
I'm talking about him getting an extension.
Yeah, he probably going to sit out the whole year, though.
Oh, yeah, then I'm very sure next year.
Yeah.
Klay played well last night, too.
Played really well last night.
Yeah, we had a conversation yesterday.
I said, Klay ain't that far from D-Wade.
They tried to tell me I was out of pocket.
Yeah, I don't know about that one.
We'd be slandering D-Wade a little bit too much.
I ain't slandering him.
He better than Klay, bro.
No.
I mean, I get what you're saying.
I don't think it's that close either.
Do you feel like – it's a pie episode, too.
But do you feel like he's at least top ten shooting guards all time?
Yeah.
Okay.
He can crack top ten.
But D-Wade is silly, bro.
Yeah, historic fire.
I give James Harden better than him, but after that I ain't rolling.
No, I ain't saying he was better.
No, no, exactly.
Bro, it is, bro.
Close to me, I think, bro.
We did the stats yesterday, bro.
The comparison for sure.
He's unrestricted after next year.
In 2026, Kyrie can dip out.
Klay Thompson has never been a first option.
Ever.
You ain't even have to carry that flag, bro.
Yeah, it's different.
And Klay is cold. I love Klay, bro.
Me too.
This ain't no shade.
You went from the second to the third option.
This ain't no shade. D-Wade, he had a hell of a finals run.
That's enough right there.
He played with Shaq.
Shaq averaged 15.
He played with all them good bets.
I'm saying he killed that finals run.
That's for sure.
No hate.
But after that, the heat was ass.
Nah, that's a fact.
When he was running the team.
That's a fact.
The heat was ass.
He still averaged 26.
And I got a chip out of this, so I'm already stamped.
Whatever I get after that, don't matter.
I mean, Clayton got chips, though.
But he was a second option.
And a third option.
Because KD was there.
Yeah.
That's different, bro.
Somebody came to your team and made you the third option.
I could never compare Clayton Thompson to D-Wade.
I mean, KD would have made D-Wade the third option.
That's a fact.
What are we talking?
What?
Ron and KD would have been the first.
That would have never happened, though.
Ron and KD.
At that time, D-Wade was going to be a first or second option.
Nothing lower.
He was never going to be a third option.
Okay, DK, yeah, he would have.
Because the caliber of player he was, it wasn't going to allow no team like that to happen.
All right, look.
Clay Thompson, 19.
D-Wade, 22.
It's Michael Jordan, Kobe, D-Wade, bro.
D-Wade, end of his career messed up some of his stats.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what's going on with Klay right now.
Klay got hurt at the prime of his life.
He was playing the best basketball in his life.
He tore his ACL and popped his Achilles.
True.
Like at 31, 30, whatever age he was.
Yeah, and I played his damn good, bro.
If you drop play on that Heat team in 2006.
They lose by, they get swept.
Oh, yeah.
They two different players because D-Wade really a point guard.
Yeah.
D-Wade was a point guard.
That's what people keep feeling.
I just put him at the two because people say he a two guard.
But he played the point.
I mean. He had the ball in his hand. He came off pick and roll.
That's what he did. That's like James Harden. He a point
guard? Yeah, he a point guard. They just label him
as a two guard, but D-Wade was a point guard.
Klay Thompson is a pure two guard. I come off
pin downs. I shoot threes. I would compare
Klay to Ray Allen before I would D-Wade,
bro. Yeah, but... Or Reggie Miller.
Because D-Wade really is a point guard, bro.
Nah, he is. That's a fact. We just put him in a two guard category. I don't know why they started doing that, but Cause D-Wade Really is a point guard, bro Nah, he is That's a fact
We just put him
In a two guard category
I don't know why
They started doing that
But they
Cause Mario Chalmers
Was they point guard
But he ain't even play point
Mario stood in the corner
And shot threes
Yeah, but when you look
On the paper
That's what it say
Yeah, I give you that
Yeah
But
But they was ball dominant
They had the ball
Majority of the time
Yeah, Clay Thompson
Ain't never had a ball like that
Same shit with A.I.
Nah, that's a fact
A.I. was a two guard
But technically a point guard,
even though Eric Snow was on the roster.
No disrespect to Klay at all because he's cold.
Like, he is, but I ain't rolling with that one.
For sure.
I mean, I would say D-Wade.
Well, we got to scratch D-Wade as a two guard.
I'm going to say he a hybrid.
Him and James Horner are hybrids.
Okay.
Because they don't play the two traditionally.
Okay.
Traditional twos is like niggas that come off pin downs,
isos, and like that. They came off ball traditionally. Okay. Traditional twos is like niggas that come off pin downs, isos, and like that.
They came off ball screens.
Yeah.
Making plays, had the ball in their hand the whole game.
So D-Wade is out of two-guard conversation.
So that changed a lot of shit then.
Yeah.
If we doing that.
Two greats for sure.
Please tap into the episode, Dropping Dead 12 today, man.
Hell of a conversation for that debate for sure.
We want to talk about the Mavs.
Do they have enough to get the grises up out of here?
Nah.
Not enough? Okay.
It's quiet? Oh, no. Fuck that.
Klay about to go crazy. I got the Mavs, man.
If he do go crazy. Yeah, AD played good.
They looked good last night. I got the Mavs, man.
I don't know if they can sustain that,
but they looked good last night. I ain't going to hold you. Next year
when they all healthy, that front line of Gaffer,
AD, and Lively is going to be dangerous.
That's tough.
They are big.
But the thing is, that little guard be killing for them.
Out the G League.
Is he going to do that for real?
I mean, this is an opportunity.
He played really good last night.
I like P.J. Washington, too.
Yeah, he be moving.
Yeah, I rock with P.J. Washington, for sure.
They got a solid roster, like you said.
If Kyrie was still there, we'd tell you the conversation.
I got the bads, bro. I ain't going to hold you. Okay, you like the end now? Yeah, because I got Klay fucked up. Klay got a solid roster, like you said. If Kyrie was still Navy, I'd tell you that conversation. I got the bads, bro. I ain't gonna hold you up.
Okay, you locked in now? Yeah, because I got
Clay fucked up. Clay gotta play well, though. He gotta.
I just hate he got hurt, man.
Yeah, nah. How old is Clay?
Uh, gotta be 34, 35.
Hell nah. Yeah, 35. 35?
I think Clay 08.
Yeah, Clay 35.
Now you talking about ruining his stats. This season's definitely
ruining Clay's stats. Oh, man. Murdered. We have seen him do some crazy, Clay 35. Now, you're talking about ruining his stats. This season's definitely ruining Clay's stats. Oh, man, murdered.
We have seen him do some crazy, unbelievable stuff.
Come on, bro.
I seen him get 60 on us and no dribbles, bro.
I seen him get 40 and a quarter, so.
His historic NBA shit.
He is.
I love Clay game.
100%.
For sure.
All right, man, but we'll see, man.
You going grizzly still?
Yeah, I'm grizzlies all day.
Shout out to Desmond Bain's gang.
B. Bain, for sure.
That nigga had 60 and no dribbles, bro. That's fire. I'm a betterless all day Shout out to Desmond Bain The gang B-Bain for sure That nigga had 60 No dribbles bro
That's fire
I'm a better two guard bro
CCP didn't move
It's a great time
I'm a two guard
If he would've kept
Doing that though
Like if he never got hurt
It might be a different
Conversation bro
I speak high of Clay bro
I do too
He don't get hurt
To have another championship
That's a fact
Cause I beat the Raptors
Yeah
Alright man
Let's get to it, man. Playoff preview
going down this weekend.
Let's start it off with the first game Saturday.
5-4 matchup. Live in that.
Bucks-Pacers, who y'all got?
Game one. I'm going to take
game one. I'm going to take the Bucks. I think y'all is going to go
crazy game one. Game two, I'm going to
tell y'all to go. Game one, Bucks.
Game two, Pacers. Game three, Pacers. Game
four, Bucks. Game five, Pacers game three Pacers game four books game five Pacers
then Pacers gonna win game six Pacers better not lose game one bro they gonna get him some hope
y'all just gonna come out there and start acting crazy bro I ain't gonna lie um game one is
definitely necessary uh we have not hosted around in a very long time been a decade we got to get
this win at the crib we've been very good at the crib so a lot they lose game one they probably gonna lose the whole series bro they better win
the game yeah we got create bro that's deflating bro yeah we're not the best row team and we throw
we thrive at home we gotta get this done for show I'm telling you I'm I got the I got the Pacers
winning game six okay well who you got winning? I like the Pacers. Okay.
But if they ain't make a surprise appearance, I got bucks and five.
Pacers ain't.
And that's why I hope we really just go ahead and handle business these first two games that they created.
Because if they start off down 0-2, they ain't going to come back.
Yeah.
Now, if it's a Todd series or it's looking promising, I ain't got time for that Undertaker, Damien Lillard shit, man.
Stay where you are, bro.
Rest.
Go back to next year.
I don't got time for that, bro. That's going to hurt everybody's feelings when he walk out that tunnel. Yeah, that's going to piss me off.
I seen him working out. Uh-oh.
Get on yoga, bro.
So Dame has the
chance to come back.
He has a chance.
He probably won't play before they go back
to Milwaukee. I'd be very surprised if he plays
in the next week.
Hopefully not, but Pacers are six.
Hopefully not.
Get well soon, Dane. Rest up. This ain't worth your time, brother.
Get ready to go to Miami.
Oh, so you got the
Heat winning?
You got the Heat winning the game?
No, I'm saying, Dane, go ahead
to leave Milwaukee. Rest up.
Get good.
I thought you were saying Miami
going to beat the Cavs and they're going to end up playing in Miami. Oh, under no circumstances would that happen. That's what I thought you were trying to put Milwaukee. Go play in Miami. Get dressed up, get good. I thought you were saying Miami going to beat the Cavs
and they're going to end up playing in Miami.
Oh, under no circumstances would that happen.
That's what I thought you were trying to put together.
Not even the finest in that pack can make me believe that.
But I'm going Pacers to six in this situation, man.
I think game one is going to be crazy for sure.
But I think Giannis is going to dominate.
It's going to be probably a 30-point triple-double average in the series.
He's going to win for sure.
Are y'all going to double Giannis?
Y'all don't really double
that much i don't think we should nah because if he get them shooters rolling yeah that's gonna
kick our ass yeah that's gonna make yannis is gonna get 40 anyway and just let him get it we
don't have nobody who can really guard him pascal does decent miles 100 does not don't do the bad
job on him but nah don't double bro but nobody can guard him so it doesn't matter let him get his 40
yes don't let him get everybody else going it It's when Gary Trent hits six threes.
And then AJ goes crazy.
The role players, we don't have time for them to get hot.
Yeah.
For sure.
The other four or five matchup.
Clippers Nuggets.
We got the best duo in this series.
Harden Kawhi.
Yo, kitchen Murray.
I don't got no gauge on this.
I got to see game one.
Yeah, I go first. Okay. I like that. I don't got no gauge on this. I got to see game one. Yeah, I got a person.
Okay.
I like that.
I don't know what Jamal we getting.
Thanks.
I know.
I think we're going to get the real deal.
We got to make sure we're getting James Harden.
The one we need.
Yeah, a little bit.
I believe in James.
I believe in him, too.
But, you know, sometimes in the playoffs, he disappears a little bit at times.
That is a fact.
We don't need that right now.
He got his dog back.
So, ah, man. All right, go to that question because i can't wait to tell them because i want to let them know how

Jamal, go back and watch the 06 Finals every other year.
For the next few, they were Eastern Conference Finals versus Detroit at least,
plus GOAT shot blocking guard.
He just made that up.
How did he get the number two pick to get
Mike Beasley yeah they weren't in the conference files that's why I almost missed the Olympic team
and stuff like that he did have another year where he was balling but they was ass it was trash you
just liar fucking horrible yeah but he is one of the best shot blocking two guards of all time that
is that's a that's a fake fact. Probably the best blocking guard.
Shout out to Jamal for that question. Well, at least the man under him corrected him.
Nail 2-4, D-Way had injury issues too. That's why he
sucked after Chip. That is a fact.
That's true. Shout out to D-Way,
man. One of the best two guards to ever do it.
I think this series is going to be crazy, though. Like you said, we got
a lot of good players in the series. I don't know how. We need
pints in game one. If I'm jumping
down a limb, I'm going to go Nuggets just off the respect.
But I think we should reserve to, you know what I'm saying, see this.
Because it's going to be crazy.
But what do the Clippers got to do to beat the Nuggets?
Stop Jokic.
That ain't going to happen.
I was going to say, boy.
Kawhi Leonard is going to have to play amazing.
He's going to have to beat Kawhi Leonard.
Kawhi Jordan.
I think Norman Powell and them are going to have to play well. Okay.
That's an X factor. And Peezy? Yeah, he's going to have to play
well. And then Zoo is going to have to
put up some type of fight, bro, on Jokic.
Some type of fight. I think they should double
Jokic. Give him different
looks, but they got like Christian Brown
got to beat me. Yeah,
facts. He's going to have to show me.
I know he can get to the basket. I know he's one of the best
scorers in transition.
I think he lead the league in points on fast breaks
or whatever, something like that.
But he gonna have to show me,
he gonna hit four or five threes this year.
Westbrook gonna have to show me,
he gonna make some threes.
Yeah, actually, double team that,
y'all gonna have to beat me, bro.
Aaron Gordon gonna have to hit some threes, bro.
I gotta beat me.
That's all I'm about to say, Moe.
I think Aaron Gordon is going to have to be in that dunker spot.
Like you said, if they're going to double,
he got to really dominate that dunker spot or knock down shots.
Yeah, we going to clog that paint.
Wes, Brooke, Gordon, only one we closing our heart on,
MPJ and Jamal Murray.
And Jamal Murray, yeah.
You know what's crazy?
Christian Bryan, so far to start his NBA career, got a solid one.
To go get a chip in college and then go get a chip in the league.
He having a great.
That's fire.
And he averaging like 16, 17 this year.
He having a hell of a year.
I'm just saying.
And he ain't shooting bad from the three.
But I'd rather you than Jamal Murray.
It's going to have to be you.
You got to show me.
Because if they let Jamal Murray get hot, they going to be in trouble, bro.
Because you know, if he get hot, he get real hot.
Yeah.
For sure.
All right, Bishop.
You know what I'm saying?
You've been rocking with the Clippers all year.
What they got to do to get this dub, man?
Man, feed Zoo.
Okay.
Feed my boy Zoo, man.
Make Yoke play some defense.
Zoo, you've been killing all year.
Keep it going, Nasty.
Make, yes, make Yoke's guard up, bro.
Straight up.
And I think this is going to be the best series out of the first round.
Okay.
I got this one being the best one.
I think the Clippers got to play fast, and they got to keep –
I mean, it's a tough place to play playing in Denver.
They at a disadvantage because of the –
Can't breathe.
Out the tube, baby.
But if they keep Yokej in constant pick and rolls
instead of playing isolation basketball, if they keep Jokic in constant pick and roll instead of playing isolation basketball.
Yeah.
If they keep him picking rolls in Big Zoo, you know, being in that dunker spot rolling, getting lobs.
Or they beating their man off the dribble and lobbing up to Zoo because Jokic is not athletic at all.
He got good hands or whatever.
But they keep him on the move defensively.
I think it will wear him out a little bit offensively.
Yeah.
I like that strategy for sure.
Yeah, we will reserve our judgments after game one for sure.
It's going to be a good series, though.
Moving on to Pistons and Knicks.
Six versus three matchup.
Do the Pistons have a chance?
I feel like they got a chance, bro.
I feel like K. Cunningham, he got a chance to have a moment right here.
Okay.
The Knicks should win, but they better be careful, bro.
That's a feisty team, bro.
They well coached.
And they got somebody that could be potentially a superstar, bro.
K, good in here.
Most definitely.
All NBA for sure.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say he is a superstar.
Okay.
And there's nothing that he can't do on the floor.
Yep.
And he's 6'7", 6'6".
Yeah, he be dragging, boys.
Yeah, matchup nightmare.
Even if they don't win this, if he come out on the average 30, yeah.
He's stamped.
Yeah, bitch, I'm getting my bread, bro.
Knicks in five.
Knicks in five?
Yes.
Do the Pistons fall?
You think they're intimidated by Knicks at all?
Because I don't feel like they don't look good like that.
They're not that type of team.
They got some crash outs.
They don't get scared.
One thing about Dennis Schroeder, he going to compete.
Yeah.
He ain't scared.
Isaiah Stewart going to compete.
You heard the track?
Even the young dude, he going to compete.
Oh, yeah.
Thompson.
Yeah.
Thompson, too, ain't going to compete.
I like him.
The other one, they like to fight, too.
Oh, Holland.
Holland.
Holland.
He going to compete.
They all going to compete.
Marcus Sasson, yeah.
Tobias Harris going to compete.
Yeah.
I don't care.
Y'all acting like Bill.
Sam Hardaway going to compete. Nick Sasson going to compete. I don't care if you're acting like Bill. Tim Hardaway is going to compete.
The Knicks should. If they don't,
it's going to be trouble in New York.
I'm just saying.
We're going to have to really make some shots this series.
We've got to see if that's real or if this is just
a good year. Tim Hardaway is probably going to need
to hit some shots. The lights are on now.
The lights are definitely on.
Let's see if you still shoot that basketball with them lights on like that.
And I ain't going to hold you, man.
Shout out to the Knicks.
But, boy, they got an expensive 51-win team.
That's what I'm saying, bro.
They got it.
They really got to beat the piss in the ass, bro.
Like, we don't want no dogfight.
Y'all supposed to scrape them.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
We will see for sure, man.
Moving on.
T.
Wolves-Lakers, the other three in six matchup.
People got T. Wolves beating Lakers.
I don't.
Do they?
Yes, a lot of people do.
Jeff Wright, people do.
I ain't going to lie.
I kind of fuck with the T-Wolves because I know they don't give a damn.
Ant don't care.
Daniels don't care.
Alexander don't care.
The X Factor is going to be Randall.
Can Randall kill? Yeah. Because they don't got. The X Factor is going to be Randall. Can Randall kill?
Yeah.
Because they don't got no bigs.
I might say, who's going to guard him?
He's the most important part.
Brian probably is going to guard him.
Brian going to guard him.
But if they can keep Luka in ball screens.
They're going to attack Luka for sure.
They got to.
They have to.
I mean, every team they play is going to attack Luka for sure. They got to. They have to. I mean, every team they play gonna attack Luka, so.
The only thing is,
they gonna put
Rudy Gobert
in so many
fucking ball screens.
You know Luka
loved that matchup.
Oh, man.
He loves it.
I was gonna say,
is this where Nasri
gonna have to play
heavy minutes?
Yes.
Yeah, of course.
Nasri's gonna have to play.
But I don't think
they got enough
to stop Luka.
Yeah.
It might be a long series.
If Austin Reed
is playing out of his body,
it's Christmas, bro.
But damn,
Ant is a monster, bro.
He is.
He going to kill,
but it's going to be
a long road ahead.
To me,
the most important part,
most important person
in this series
is Julius Randle.
Yeah.
If he played middie,
they can fuck around
and get swept.
Mm-hmm. I was just going to ask y'all that. All right, prediction of this series is Julius Randle. Yeah. If he played middie, they'd fuck around and get swept. Mm-hmm.
I was just going to ask y'all that.
All right, prediction of this series?
Y'all need to see game one.
I'm going with the Lakers.
I like the Lakers.
Okay.
Lakers in six.
Lakers in six?
I'm going to go Lakers in five.
I can see this being quick work, man.
I think they motivated right now.
Super Chat,
Master Sensei asks,
I'm convinced Jeff let Klay score 60 and three quarters
Just to put him over D-Wade
Because there's no way
You put Harden and Klay
Over D-Wade
I convinced everyone
But your brother

For letting you say that

All them niggas said no

Niggas like you encouraging me to stream more.
I need that one-on-one talk.
Thanks, bro.
Call him to the stage.
Call him to the stage.
Yeah, boy, fuck out of here.
What's going on?
Niggas crazy.
Turn around, Johnson, do your ass.
Nick Young told Boogie Cousins,
it's easy to average 25 on a bad team
if you have the green light. Cousins said, it's easy to average 25 on a bad team if you have the
green light
because it's nonsense
that focuses only on you.
How y'all feel about that?
I mean,
I think Boogie
was going to get
his numbers anywhere.
Yeah,
it's not easy
to average 25 in the NBA.
It's not easy,
but it's easier.
I get what Nick Young
was saying.
Yeah.
We coming to play out.
Nobody really cares.
Nobody.
We in the area. You out here killing. We don't care. I swear to God on my Like, we coming to play y'all, nobody really care. Nobody. We in the area.
You out here killing,
we don't care.
I swear to God on my soul,
we ain't do scouting report
when we play the Wizards.
Yeah,
like,
Brad Bill go get his 25.
When John was left the Wizards
and it was just Brad.
Yeah.
Y'all just went to go hoop.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can see what both of them saying
because it's not easy
to average 25.
It's not easy at all.
But we did not give a damn. We didn't sleep on y'all that night. The opportunity is probably there saying Because it's not easy to average 25 It's not easy at all But we did not give a damn
The opportunity is probably there
But it's not an easy feat by no means
You get to shoot 20 times
Look at Quentin Grimes
Yeah
Facts
Najee Marshall baby
Yeah
Nobody doing no scout report on the Sixers
Quentin Grimes is going to shoot 20 times
Let's get this one and get out of here
Yeah
We're going to win by 22
Yeah Just ice the side, pick and rolls They ain't trapping you They don't give a fuck about that shit Quinn Grimes is going to shoot 20 times. All right, let's get this one and get out of here. Yeah, we're going to win by 22. Yeah.
Yeah, bro.
Just ice the side, pick and rolls.
They ain't trapping you.
They don't give a fuck about that shit.
I don't care.
For sure.
Brandon in the Super Show asks, do y'all agree with Rich P?
I think it's a pecking order issue unless it's a 1A and 1B situation.
When MVP teams work best, a star will always have an alpha mindset.
You got to break that down a little more, bro.
Yeah, Brandon, clarify that a little bit more, brother.
Lakers on six.
Moving on.
I get what he's trying to say.
He's saying that you got to have one alpha male,
then you got to have somebody that can play Robin.
Basically, LeBron was the alpha male.
D-Wade played Robin.
Okay.
And they were saying that Chris Bosh just fell in line.
Like, he was a third option.
He kind of was just a rotational guy, basically.
They still was a big three, though.
For them to say they wasn't a big three is kind of crazy.
Yeah, we talked about it on the pod yesterday.
They're a big three, bro.
Because on every team, if I'm the best, Jeff the best,
somebody has to water theyself down a little bit just so we can be a good team.
That's just basketball.
But we still can be a big three. Like, KG and them did that. Somebody's going to have to water their game down. But y just so we can be a good team that's just basketball but we still can be a big three like kg and them did that somebody gonna have to water that game down
but y'all still a big three bro and that shows you being a real teammate about the situation
because everybody criticized brad bill for not wanting to be that role but if he did then we'd
be seeing how much of a teammate he is it's a good thing to be yeah i mean you're gonna have to
somebody yeah bro if you want to win you have to do that shit that's true because kevin love did it
somebody got to somebody every time you look at a bro. If you want to win, you have to do that shit. That's true. Because Kevin Love did it. Somebody got to.
Every time you look at a big three, somebody took
a step down, bro. You have to. Shit, we just
talked about Clay. When
KD pulled up, he still got a shit on, but he
had to take a step down, bro. KD has to get these
shots. You're going to average 24 this year. You're going to average 18,
bro. Yeah. But we whooping shit, so
it's cool. But that'd be my thing, though. When you go there,
I feel like, why ain't that the goal? Because you said
you was going to the team and winning the championship. Because it sounds good, and then once you're playing, it's like my team in thing, though. When you go there, I feel like, why ain't that the goal? Because you said you was going to the team and winning the championship.
Because it sounds good.
And then once you're playing, it's like my team in college, bro.
We all was like, are we all going to play together?
But when you only got 10 tonight and you used to getting 24, you shitty, bro, as a basketball
player and a competitor.
That just don't feel good all the time, even though you win the game.
Everybody that play basketball, sometimes you win a game and you ain't play the way
you want to play, you still shitty, bro.
And y'all won the game. It's just being competitive.
I've never been that kind of player, though.
I have a bad game we won.
You straight?
Nah. He's bad, man.
If we lost and we had a good game.
I'm the same way, bro. I want to win.
I want to play good, too, bro.
We play the game to play well, bro.
You play the game to kill.
If we lost and I had 35.
You probably ain't happy because y'all lost.
Where we going?
If you lost by 20 and you had 35,
you getting dressed faster than everybody after the game?
It depends on my role on the team too.
If I ain't been playing that much.
What are you saying if you're the leader on the team
and you lose by 20 but you just had 35?
I'm pissed. If I'm Brian or something, I'm pissed. All right. What are you saying if you're the leader on the team and you lose by 20, but you just had 35? I'm pissed.
If I'm Brian or something, I'm pissed.
All right, what if you Bradley Bill?
I mean, we're going to lose anyway.
You mean Bradley Bill on Phoenix?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bradley Bill on Phoenix.
Okay, but you got Bradley Bill on with John.
Oh, man.
Man, bro.
If I'm one of them top guys, bro, where I'm getting 30 every night,
I'm going to be mad, bro. Okay. But if I'm a dude that's – I'm having a good'm mad, bro. If I'm one of them top guys, bro, where I'm getting 30 every night, I'm going to be mad, bro.
Okay.
But if I'm a dude that's – I'm having a good moment today, fuck it.
We outside.
Nigga, I had a good game.
I don't care if we lost, bro.
So Quinn Grom should be like, we in the club every night.
He's about to get paid.
He having the time of his life right now.
I have a toy right now, bro.
You can't tell me nothing.
It just depends on what point in your career you in.
I've been on pause and everything.
I like winning too much.
Yeah, everybody want to win.
If I had a bad game, we won. It's like winning too much I want to win I like if I had a bad game we won it like winning he races everything yeah we lost I had a bad game we want fuck it fuck you but if you have 40 and
y'all lost by three you might be mad but I mean I don't win in it and they get windmill on y'all
y'all give a fuck I always just wanted to win.
That's my comeback.
Like when we was debating with Brandon.
Brandon Lyle.
Y'all lost.
Yeah.
Or even like Isaiah Briscoe on the big three.
You had all them points.
You kept screaming that.
Y'all lost, bro.
Y'all don't understand how fire that moment was for the big three.
Y'all had one of the best moments, bro.
I like to win.
I hope they remember that in a couple weeks. I like to win. I hope they remember that
in a couple weeks.
I like to win, bro.
For sure.
Speaking of the big three,
I think we can break this now.
All right, bro.
Cardi at Kimba.
It's official.
My boy Kimba Walker
in the big three.
Yeah, I texted my boy yesterday, man.
He said he gonna fuck with the pod, man.
He gonna lock in with us.
Ah, yeah, it's up, man.
Appreciate that, Kim.
It's gonna be a fire episode.
He about to get out there
and kill them.
Yeah, that's about it.
That's him. You'd be surprised some of them cuz
people be coming in that shit is bullshit some people take this shit serious bro I'm working out
in that's they life bro sounds about boy Nasir working out every day all day I feel like Kimba on that, though. I feel like Kimba. Kimba coach, bro. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? He's over there with LaBella on there still.
He in the gym.
I don't know if he in the gym like that.
He probably don't feel like doing that shit, bro.
He probably about to start training.
But see, the thing about the big three, that's why I want it to be a full court game.
Yeah.
Because guys like Kimba and them can still show that greatness.
Because what make Kimba good is like open court.
Yeah.
You got a guarding one-on-one.
He snatch back on you.
You come to the
pick and roll you get to looking crazy yeah big three them motherfuckers will just post up the
whole game post you up the whole game bro just back you down back you down Isaiah Briscoe be
like bro you really gonna post up the whole game he's like yeah it's not even basketball bro we
might want to fight that's what it was bro we just posted i'm like what the fuck bro
he marked jackson yeah he was just posted that's that that's really hey niggas that posted
you don't do this in no game bro i've never seen him playing a game
that ain't that ain't that ain't his game i'm not gonna say it ain't basketball it's big three
basketball but it's not uh you don't hoop like this, bro.
Real five on five.
You said pure league, NBA.
The people didn't pull up to see point guards post up.
Yeah, bro.
Like, what are we doing, bro?
Yeah.
For sure.
All right, man.
Moving on to Sunday's game.
Magic and Celtics.
All right.
How many games can the Magic win?
Maybe one.
Maybe one?
One.
Y'all tripping, bro.
You think they're going to win some games?
Never.

They probably going to get swept.
You say get the boom out?
Immediately, bro.
Yeah, man.
Shout out to Gary, man.
Shout out to the Magic.
Yeah, I think it's quiet, man.
I think the Celtics might lose three games total this entire playoff run into the finals.
Shout out to G here.
His house is beautiful.

You're about to say we got the same 24 hours?
You work as hard as you can.

Nah bro
Pull your iPad out bro
He said watch your phone bro
Tell him to pull it to your house
My iPad is crazy
I said bro
We can't be invited to your house
And go to the basement
And watch the game or nothing
There's no TV there
There's no TV bro
He said he doesn't bro
You're an agri-popper
If you have a basement
With no TV bro
That's sick
Yeah bro
He told me bro

Yeah I'm doing voodoo
With that motherfucker bro
He told us

And watch the same TV
With his kids bro
You gotta get there early His kids got TVs watch the same TV with his kids, bro.
You got to get there early.
His kids got TVs in his room, but his kids want to come out.
We got to share, bro.
Get well soon, man.
Yeah, I think everybody probably is going to handle that for sure.
Rockets Warriors.
Yeah.
How we feeling, man?
This is a matchup a lot of people feel like, oh, it's sake of sneak.
It can, but I'm going to go with the young Rockets.
It's going to be good, bro. Okay. You feeling confident in the Warriors in this one? This is my favorite.
It's my favorite first round matchup.
It's going to be exciting games, for sure,
man. Because the Rockets is still young enough to do
a lot of dumb shit, and the Warriors do a lot of crazy shit.
All I say is, don't let it go to seven
because if it do, the Warriors going to win.
That's tough. So they probably want to get it done.
Jimmy better than everybody on the Rockets, bro.
He is.
Warriors in six.
Damn.
Okay.
Be here, settle business with Warriors in six?
I ain't mad at it.
Draymond, we got to extend the vacay, Nasty.
It's cool.
We got to delay it a little bit.
Y'all about to beat them.
That was a great matchup, first-round matchup for y'all.
So you're saying the fix was in.
They lost that game on purpose? Yeah, bro. To the a great matchup. First round matchup for y'all. So you're saying the fix was in. They lost that game on
purpose? Yeah, bro. To the
Clippers? Yeah. This one
right here.
Jimmy Butler finna go crazy
on them. Thompson
ain't got nothing for him. He is.
He is. I ain't got no rebuttal.
I'll be the outlier, bro. I'm going Rockets
to six, man. I think
these young boys ain't no fluke, man. got vets you got for every athlete who've been there
before they can do it yeah I think Jalen Green gonna have a coming out party too
I just got to see who's gonna guard Steph all right Dylan I know Freya used
to go Fred Gardner man when he was in Toronto but that's when you was a young
for it yeah when he was playing for something you know that contract yeah I
don't know if he got he gonna get them same screens but that's when you was a young Fred. Yeah. When you was playing for some, you know, that contract. Yeah.
I don't know if he going to get them same screens,
but he been playing good this year for them.
Do you put Dylan on Jimmy and then put Thompson on Steph?
That's a chance.
That's what luxury they do have is having those two.
Yeah, Thompson, bro. Yeah, and he's one of the best defensive players in the league.
But, boy, I don't know if you got to have that hit on a swivel with Steph.
Boy, you can't relax at one time.
That's the fact, he gonna be running through.
Moving and grooving.
He's not playing offense this series.
Oh yeah, your offense is done, my boy.
The Rockets has got a fire team, though.
Yeah, man.
So if they want, I wouldn't be surprised.
Can Jalen Green dominate?
He has to.
Well, he got an average, T, for him to win.
You know what, I'm rolling with you there, Mook.
I think Shagan will have to set the tone,
because he gonna have to outplay Draymond in the series.
Draymond is going to lock that up.
He's going to get locked up by Draymond.
That's the problem.
He's going to have to play well.
If you're my all-star big, you've got to kill the series.
If you get locked up by Draymond, you're done, bro.
Yeah, it's going to get quiet.
Draymond is locking it up.
And that's a high chance that Draymond will lock you up.
It is.
I like that question, though.
How much do you think Jalen Green is going to average to win the series?
He's got to be dynamic, bro.
Okay.
He does.
25. Of Gary He does. 25.
If Gary Payton and Moses Moody make it tough on him, Rock is getting swept.
Yeah.
You have to get 25.
It ain't no way.
Moses Moody and Gary Payton can't make it tough on him.
You got to get 25.
And they can't make it tough on him.
This ain't a playing situation.
They got to win four of them.
And I know that in four games, Wardell will show up.
I know in four games, Jimmy Butler will show up. It's time for these young boys to prove it, man. But I got faith in them, man. I don't think they is to win four of them. And I know that in four games, Wardell will show up. I know in four games, Jimmy Butler will show up.
It's time for these young boys to prove it, man.
But I got faith in them, man.
I don't think they is a fluke, man.
MA a hell of a coach, too.
But I agree.
I think it's going to be a very exciting series for sure.
That's my favorite one.
Shit, Draymond going to show up.
I hope so.
He is, bro.
You see what happened yesterday?
He's going to have an impact on the game, bro.
Yeah, you see what happened.
It's probably going to get well soon.
Boy, Steph told him in that corner yesterday.
Nah, yeah, you're not here for that. You're going to have an impact. You're yeah you see what happened it's probably get well soon but steph told him in that corner yesterday nah yeah you're that you're not here for that
don't shoot he said hey uh this probably what the best time for you to shoot that
said in a nice way though but yeah bro chill out when he shot that three yeah
he said let me come off the screen and kick it back to me bro don't shoot that yeah we just
run it back again bro before you shoot that and drape i said you know what you're right
my bad i shouldn't have shot that that's how you know y'all been together for a while yeah cause me i would
have crashed up but he said you mean he said he said in such a nice way that he couldn't even get
mad like all right bro you watch like nah that ain't the action we probably wanted right there
you know i'm gonna come off this just hit me ah you bet you gotta see what katie said it was a problem at that point like me you can't talk to my team
I'm trying to help you in the chip relax That's the worst To deal with all these problems Man's still supposed to have KD and Jordan Poole He tore that apart
All of that bro
I'll fuck with that

Grizzlies or Mavs
Thunder doesn't matter

Whoever in that situation
I'd like to see Ja, though.
If they play the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies could win one or two.
Okay.
Yeah, I'd like to see Ja, bro.
He's just so exciting to watch.
Yeah, I'd like to see Ja Varsity for sure.
That'd be a hell of a matchup.

Yeah, me too.
I think if they start playing whoop that trick again, bro, I swear to God,
everyone needs to go crazy when that came on, bro.
That is fire, though.
Whoop that trick.
If they start playing that again, it might get serious.
For sure.
All right, man.
Thunder in six is what it is.
And last but certainly not least, Heat and Hawks slash versus the Cavs.
I don't think it matters either way.
No, they swept.
Yeah.
I ain't going to lie, though.
The Cavs ain't that scary, bro.
Swept.

and the co-author of the new book, Runs in the Family,
an incredible true story of football,
fatherhood, and belonging, written with and about Las Vegas Raiders running backs coach
Dylan McCullough. It's the story of a football coach and father of four who sees his life
forever changed by the unsealing of his adoption records. And it's got a twist you won't believe.
Based on the viral ESPN story I did a few years ago, this book will blow your mind and bring you
to tears.
Buy Runs in the Family wherever books are sold.
