I'm going across the panel, man. Who y'all feel like is an X factor for the Knicks? I'll start with you being. OG. OG and Nalby? That's your ex-factor you picking? OG. Okay.

You think he got to play well for them to have any chance in this series? Yeah, he's going to have to guard up for real. I got OG as my X factor. Okay. Booke, how you feeling? I got OG too, bro. Okay. You're going to have to have a big series, bro.

Offense and defense. All right. T. How are you feeling about that? We're going to break it down on 520 films later on the day. Actually, OG is, I think, everybody's picked for this next year. Because his ability to be able to guard Wemby. We're going to talk about it.

The bubble, not the bubble, the mid-season tournament. They played against each other in the finals, and we're going to break down some film about that. Got to some of the looks that gave him in the majority. Yeah, yeah. I think one of the expectations for the Knicks, I know we talk about it, he just hurt his hand, but I think Mitchell Robinson, I think Mitch Robinson's contributions

in the way that he dominates the glass, especially a way that the Spurs can get on the glass and dominate the game as well. I think his contribution will be very, very important for this next team because obviously, you know, Kat gets in foul trouble. And he's still a body that you could throw at Winby as well. I know the whole Huck Robinson thing

could be a little wicked, but I got faith in my boy, man. We will see what happens. Starvation UT here for the Spurs. Who do you feel like there's an X factor for this series? Honestly, Deerrin Fox. He hasn't played with all this whole playoffs, and that's okay.

But he's going to have to have that. match Jalen Brunson's fourth quarter Horroics, right? In the fourth quarter, Jalen Brunson goes crazy. Spurs kind of struggle with decision-making in the fourth quarter. They really don't have anyone to calm them down. Deering Fox is the guy who's in previous years

been really, really good. In the fourth quarter, been a really, really clutch player. And I think this series, he's going to have to step up and have those kind of moments. Okay. I'm rolling. Mook, how you feeling? I think Stefan Castle will have to play really well.

I think he's going to have to lower his turnovers. a lot, especially the kind of defensive team the next year they ain't got time for the mistakes. Jaylon Brunson and them going to take advantage of that. I just feel like you got to guard Brunson too. Okay, Castle. How are you feeling, brother? Dylan Harper, man.

Ricky Dill, my guy. That spark off the bench, bro. That's going to matter the most in this series, for sure. Him leading that second unit. I think they're going to have to get it done for sure. My dark cross for the spurs, Devin Fisle. Devin Fisle is that one person that when he plays at a high level, he's giving him 15, 17.

that team is much better, especially the way that he can shoot the ball. Going against his next team, I imagine that with starters on starters, that's the person Jalen Brunson is going to be probably matched up with, right? They probably won't put him on Fox. They probably won't put him on Castle.

So if he is the person going to have to put pressure on him, he is definitely going to have to score. He can bust Jailin'clock. Yeah, DeViselle's a bucket. Yeah, he gets to it for sure. I think he'll go Vassell or Champini. Yeah, he'd probably be on Champagne. Pesne, bro, because Bacel can get going,

he's going to be on champagne. Champini just stands in the corners. No disrespect to him. He had a big game, last game. But he had a three-point shooter, so that's where he's going to be. Okay, yeah. Hey, really damn good one for sure. Like you said, it had 20 to close out game.

OG is going to guard probably Castle. Castle. Okay. And then I could see, like, because Castle a driver at a ball. That might make Castle struggle because he liked to play. Yeah, bully ball. Yeah. OG ain't going to.

That shit ain't going to work, bro. He's going to pass it. OG ain't going. He don't get rid of. of you. And I can see Mikel guard D. Aaron Fox.

I could see that as well. I can see Josh Hart guard and who my other guy that got out there. You think that's a good

coaching? This is, though? Yeah. George Ritchard Fox. He always guard the point guards.

That nigga is. Go look at he guard Tyrese maxi. So fast. I'm about to say that's a different gear. He's guard Mad Max.

I mean, Tyrese is just as fast as D. He is. Yeah, just as quick as well, a little bit younger

too. Yeah. And more of a score at this point. For sure, for sure. How we feel about that big man match up with Winby and Kat? That's the thing, though. I think OG, like I said, OG might guard Castle. He might also be guard Winby.

He'll have the switch off. Because Cat can't, he's going to get in foul trouble and they can't afford that. Cat lateral movement is green. It's helpful. I ain't going to lie. I think Cat can guard Wimby, though. Because Wimby not a post presence.

That's the people that mess up cat. Like, imbeding them because they play in the post. They get physical and stuff. That's the guys that bother Kat. Him dribbling out there and trying to cross Kat. Cat going to be cool on that. He's cool with that. I think he had that pick and roll.

You know the cat going to be able to guard him on the wing? Yeah, Kat shacking guard out there. It's cat in the post. Like, he starts reaching and doing. He do getting those files on them beating them dudes. but like... I'm gonna have to see it. Oh, Cat, you know, I love you, boy.

I just got to see it. Well, that good cat, for sure. I think Cat will be straight on the perimeter against Winby. It's the other stuff. Mm. And that pick and roll, like you said, Marcus could get it.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna say, you alluded to that pick and row, and that's one thing that spurs do at a high clip. That could cause a little bit of trouble for them, especially getting them drivers downhill, getting people out of position.

But this is why I think it would be great, though. Because if OG is guarding Castle, right? And they run that pick and row, they could switch cat on Castle. and Castle can't shoot like that. And Cat can stand in the pain. Yeah. You can kind of like play that cat mouse game with Stefan Castle.

If Castle can make a shot. But trying to bump a seven-footer in Cat and finish over him, he can. Yeah, you boom on a nigga. I'm about to say, realistically, we hope he rode to the rim like he started doing against OKC and dunking on Cruz on him. Yeah. Yeah, but this is OG.

OG 68, 260. If he catch that ball by the rim. I mean, it's over. It's over for anybody. If you catch the ball, I just don't think he's going to be able to... I don't think he's going to be able to roll them to the basket. Like, they were rolling when they was putting Caruso on the one. He can't just fouling.

You seen what Hardintham was doing? Yeah. No. No. Y' all think Cat's ability to shoot three-thip... No, one-on-one. He's going to take Wendy out the game. He got respect to trade ball.

Because the cat will go to that corner, or he'll be in that trail and cat. Yeah, he's seven threes in the game. Cat can shoot the ball for real, for real. Facts. No, he's one of the best big man shoots up all time, especially by the numbers as well. And one thing about Kat, cat don't really duck no smoke, though.

He don't. He's not chet. Like, nah, he's definitely not going to be him. He's going to try to score. Yeah. Now, he's going to get Wimby on the island and try to drop him to the basket and shit

and bump him and all that. Cat might do some stuff, though you'd be like, oh, that was soft with it, but he ain't no hole for real. That ain't going to be scared. Yeah. No, he never scared the hoop.

Yeah, don't get the voice and shit fucked up. I remember games last year against a patient with Kat was just fucking us up because he's a really talented third. The nigga win me, bro. He's so long, bro. Cat going up with that boy should lay up. Yeah, that's to the-going that shit. That's to the rafters, bro.

Yeah, that's nasty work right there. But how y'all feel about the death of both teams for the Spurs and the Nix? Yeah, Nix. Nix and his D. Yeah, the Nix and his D. The Spurs is nine strong. Jorranching. I'm going to have to bring their shit.

Alarado. They're going to have to play, boy. Yeah, because I got to deal with the Dylan Harper's, the Kelton Johnson. That's another person I think is going to come in and get them quality. Oh, Harrison Barnes out there. They need to tap into Kelly Olenick, bro. Okay, you feel like Kelly Olenick, this is a good time for him to get some minutes. Yeah, it might be too late.

Yeah. That nigga, he's been cheering too long. I know, bro. Tell him you. He been cheering too long. He'll get to be a bitchy back beyond. He can shoot, bro. He can shoot.

Now, if somebody gets injured. Probably, but I'm cool. Yeah. Keldon Johnson damn near. He damn there five, bro. All you're so, the longest, he's going to be a paraphras. Yeah, he killed in a big man, bro.

So I'm okay with Killil Link. Just, you know what I mean, riding away, bro. I mean, listen, you have two white paraphrase. He got Luke Quintanette already. That's another person I feel like they could come in the game and give him a lot of help. Come in and fail. Get some good foul.

Be here. You would not. disrespect one of the best blocks and postseason hits ever to get to the finals. This is the only show that will highlight that and show that. For years to come,

that would never be seen again. Be hit. That was a deciding play. That might be seen again, because y'all not going to see this. When they do the clip for the playoffs, I don't God you're not going to sell. They're just been the siding of the game,

do you see when they put Magistini on the basketball? It wasn't real. He said, we will not be doing that. Now, because when they happened, they immediately with the game. say McAz Warriors.

Yeah. This is better than the prom block. I said, all right. All right now. Because of y'all. All right.

He got to do with this. That shit ain't look nothing like Brown Block, bro. For sure. I would never compare that at all,

man. I know I'm going to talk about it on No one of 20 films about the culture situation. I'll skip over that. Tap into the Patreon

for sure. Who's the best player to the series? Let's wake it up. Wimby. Jailen Bronson. Be here? Yeah,

yeah, I got it. I'm going to sit that one out. Y'all got it. I'm never taking a six-footer over a seven-six, nigga. I'm not saying, I'm saying, I shouldn't say I take it back. Who's the most important player for their team? Wimby.

It's Jalen Bruns. Because Wimby can have back, obviously defensively Wembe is going. That's what I was about tapping. Yeah, but offensively the Nicks, J.B. Not Hooping. It's a hard chance, bro. Yeah. A J.B. not averaging 28.

That's true. 30. It's over with. If Winby Lombie can average 14 and they can still possibly win the 6th. Because the defensive presence.

Yeah. So that matters that's equal. Yeah, it's equal. I mean, I'm not saying they both obviously they both going to have to play well

for them to win the championship back on both sides but I think the Knicks don't stand the chance of J.B. It's averaging 18. Yeah, they go to smack. Oh, it's over with it. Yeah.

That's true. Yeah, that's true. If he's getting 16, yeah. It's a whole. They don't get smart. Do you think the Oklahoma City was a better defensive team in the Knicks? As a preparation for the Spur?

No. Because I know we talked about the injuries the OKC had, but they were still a hell of a team. They kind of was, bro. NICC. Damn, we really got no weaknesses on defense, bro. I think they rush hard. But Jell and OG over any three defensively on OKC, bro. I don't know, bro.

Nogne. Harrison Walrus. Caruso and Hartleso? I'm asleep, y'all. Even SGA can go. bro. Jalen Brunson, he's a weak link on that defense, bro. He's the case he don't got one, bro. The thing about them, though, the Knicks got two-way players.

Yes, bro. Like, Taysson Wallace and them just strictly defense, Lou Dord, strictly defense. Mikel Bridges and them, fuck around E-20. But he only asks on defense. Yeah, I'm saying, that's why. But them niggas is tall as hell, though. Bridges, OG, they tall. Yeah.

Oh, gee. They tall and they six-eight. Yeah. Yeah, they, I don't know, it's a good match. I like this finals better than, um, I thought the Knicks could beat OKC. Yeah. But I like the first versus Nix.

This is more exciting. He's way more exciting than OKC versus Nix. I agree. Yeah, man, and shout out to the Knicks fans, man. Even the city of New York, there's stuff they decorate and stuff like that. The vibes is hot, man. This is going to make for a great finals for a short man.

They couldn't wait for this moment. Yeah. What? They've been waiting their whole life for this. They went crazy. They won the Easter Congress finals. So, boy, when they win this championship, I'm gonna say,

motherfucker better stay in the house. You ain't a demon. Don't go outside. Yeah, it will be the Perj in New York. If I say the Purge is real. The Knicks raise a banner, boy, they're going to tear Tom Square up for sure. All right, man, we here now.

Game 1 predictions. How we feeling? Start with you being here. Where you going? Spurs. Spurs. Game 1 at the crib? Yeah.

Okay. Moot, what's up? Going Spurs, bro. Okay. See? I got Spurs at the crib. Spurs at the crib. Okay.

We will see what happens, man. Game 1 and final starts tomorrow night. Man, tap me in for sure. Nix-R-Spires, we'll see what's going on. Let's get in the Super Chat this morning and see what they're talking about. Good morning, fellas. A-B-Hin. What's more lethal after eight seconds in the microwave, the honey bun or the Krispy Cream donut?

If it's just a normal glaze honey bun, I'm going to probably take the honey bunn. But if it's the honey bun with the white icing on there, I'm going to take the Krispy Kramer donut for sure. Okay. Because the Krispies, the donut, well, the honey bun with the white icing is just a little bit thicker than just your normal little Debbie. So, you know what I mean? That eight seconds, when you got the white icing, a honeymoon, you need probably 20 seconds.

Real ball in a right there. The job group breakdown is official. Shout to y'all. Warmed up a cream donut up out of pocket this way. Yeah, that's what I've been thinking this whole time. Go get another.

Sometimes you buy them cold because it's got to eat it cold. I ain't buying that shit. He can. Eat cold. Toyota ate cold. Hey, one of the best tips of all time for sure,

bag. You don't smoke cigarette. Why don't smoke? Why you don't they still whoop your ass? He's crazy. You'll whip your ass on Crotto. Oh, Crado. I mean, we need a way to say because

Mook shirt or shirt with all the Hube nicknames we gave Mook. Even the high out Mook shirt love gang, for sure. Did you see they put the high out of Bihin or drive to the basket? I didn't even see you. Legendary Mix ain't even seen. A legendary mix ain't for sure. All right, man.

A Muck's a Mooks Festival. It feels like Raymond Serial all over. I should have David Montgomery on the pod. Damn. Who fucking is David Montgomery? The running back. Damn. That doesn't feel like rape material all over yet.

Oh, yeah, take the mask off. Damn. That's crazy. I was having a 520 being here and rank these four. One, cut on my wrist, two, little demon. Three, I'm that nigga four. Feds did a sweep. Cut on my wrist, fizz did a sweep.

I'm that nigga, little day, man. Is there the sweep. The sweep is crazy. That nigga's linking. Boy bangers for sure. Cat going to jump and scream. Yay, we did. If the Knicks went.

Stop being disrespectful, man. Shout out the cat, man. Question I asked me here yesterday. We all taking prime, Kari or Jalen Brunson. Be here and told me his answer, so I'll let him tell it. But if Brunson wins this year,

it's an answer change for y'all. I'm biased. I know I'm going. Yeah, I want Kari. That's my goal. I went, Kyrie. I think Kyrie better, but I ain't never seen Kari hold a team down like Jaylen Brunson is, bro.

I have not. But I like Kyrie more. They can give me crazy, bro. At the highest level, I've seen Kyrie do something to do that. He wasn't the first option, bro. If it wasn't for Kyrie, bro, I would have been still in Cleveland, bro. This nigga brought the Knicks back, bro. They didn't bring the Knicks back, bro.

They both dropped their full. I don't die. There's a lot of people that get in. Jaylon Brunson don't got brought Jaylen Brunswick back. He do not got five next to him. He got wrong. Next to him.

I'm going to keep it real. Jason Brunson probably did the same thing Kari did. He would have, bro. He did that shit. I wish I had a guy right now. I hit it right now. Jaylen Brusson brought the next thing.

I cannot fight back. He brought a fucking face. He brought a fucking face. I love. I love Carrie. Y'all's in the pay cut. Let's go to Kari Irvin. Best year and Jalen Brunson

best year. It was some spooky years. in New York because he brought these niggins back. No, that's the fact. I ain't going to all respect to Jason Brunson. You know, I think he's a killer for sure. What's Kyrie best year? What do you average? 27, 50, 40, 90? Shit.

Huh? 27? 50, 40, 90. I mean, that's part. A bad motherfucker. We, no, he's cold. All right, this is Jaylen Brunson, best year. Oh, Lord. You got everything 26 right now. What do you average?

26. Yeah Let me get that I ain't a lot of y'all Fuck that Give me Jail him brunsett Just for the I ain't mad at y'all

Because he did bring these nays Bro, if the Knicks won the championship On my life The NBA is gonna be so happy That nigger took his friends To the finals, because That's all They'd be hating

That's because he didn't get the vaccine, bro Yes You see what Steve They did, you know If you got the vaccine If you got the vaccine ball They would always play with A fire team

Cairie never had like a bad team. Of them Cleveland years, bro, early on. He did. And it wasn't like this. Oh, dude. The beginning of Cleveland was playing buddy ball. He paid his dudes, bro. No I'm saying.

That was like his rookie year. Yeah, for three years. They're supposed to be bad. He was blessed after that. He been blessed with great teams. That's a fact. You played with Jason Tatum and Brian and KD and James Horan. Yeah.

And Luca. People want me to pull up, bro. Jaylen Brussels hasn't been blessed. He played with Luca. Jaylor Brunson, he got the biggest blessing. This New York is the biggest blessing for him, that's different.

He got to play with Brian. That's why I'm playing. Brian came to my team, bro. Not that way around. Yeah. You begged me to come here. I did not ask you. Carreel was pissed and he came back.

He said, I went to my friend's eyes, bro. He was mad. He was bad. It didn't want to Boston. Yeah, that's my thing. He went to Boston. It ain't look like.

But Boston was left up because everybody's trying to die. No, D. Because that first year, he killed in Boston before he got hurt. But, though, he did kill. I'm trying to hear him. Oh, the vibes was gone. The vibes was off. You see, he came back with the sage.

The vibes was off. Carrey. Carre's so cold, though. Yeah. It's just a different. He's unbelievable. I think Jaylen Brunster just had a different pressure. I respect that.

He led a franchise off. Yeah, he let a franchisee. I think it's easier playing with your friends, though. Yeah, I think if Carre got the hoop with all his home boys. Yeah, and they had a lot. He did hoop with Katie. But I'm saying that he got. Real chemistry with, you know what I mean?

My killing them. Them the guys. Kyrie was killing in Brooklyn. They wouldn't feed his nigga doing Ramadan, bro. He was in college chilling. Like, these are real friends. Yeah, they're just, he's guys. I think if he had, if Kyrie had some elite players that was his niggas like that,

he had probably had the same type of success. But also, never forget, too. I know it wasn't too far ago. But him was Luca Rocked out to get to the finals. They did. They killed. No, bro, it's not taking nothing away. I'm just saying when Mook made a valid point, bro, this nigga brought the nigs back.

No, I agree. I won't disrespect that at all, bro. It is some Nix, but he made me only few people who would ever took that pay cut for them to build this roster, and you got to respect Jell and Russell for that. Yeah. And he will be paid on the backhand for sure.

He's the only person that ever made me like the Knicks. Damn. I've never liked the Knicks fan. But Mello was my guy. I fucked them. Mello, J.R. and Shump was my guys. I rocked with that Knicks team, too. I ain't fuck with that.

I mean, I was playing. Yeah, he was playing. I didn't care. But Mello is my dog. But I ain't like, fuck the Knicks. But I fucked them. I've never been a Knicks. I didn't like mellow at the Knicks.

I liked Melo when he was in Denver. I loved him in Denver. That's my favorite Melo. Like when Mello was in Denver, I used to like, like, damn, Melo cold. With the Mids. He was with the Knicks. I knew he was cold, but it was just like. And Melo used to get jiggy with him.

He ain't dunk on people in New York and shit. What he did to Paul Millsap in that Denver? Yeah, like he wasn't an athletic number. When he got you that Nix, it was like he still cute, but it was all jumpers. He was a veteran, bro. He was a veteran, bro. His swag was different, bro. He was a lot of New York.

He had to praise in Denver? Yeah. Yeah, he was dunking off. That's crazy. All the time he got to New York, he was drinking wine and shit. Yeah, first year I thought he was better than Brian, bro. Yeah, he was different. Today's show is brought to you by our sponsor,

We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Hey Jonas is available now, and their first guest is a big one. Paul Rudd. You know, Steve Carell is a great singer. Can you tell you not to audition at the office or something? I told him. Whoa. We were filming Anchorman.

Clearly, I was the idiot. Thank God he didn't listen to him, right? Listen to Hey Jonas on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is. Getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is. Getting a new one put up in its place. As long as there's a politics of race in America, there's going to be a politics of remembering the Civil War.

To get to school, I had to go down Robert Lee Boulevard. Get to the grocery store. I had to go down Jefferson Davis Parkway. If you're an historian and you're leaving. out half of what the history is, you're not doing your job. I'm Akila Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 goes deep on both of those things. The fights, the politics, the people who won, and my personal campaign to add something to the Kentucky State House that's actually worth the wall space.

We are more than our bodies. We contain essence. We contain spirit. How do you represent that? They are just fueling a fire that is really catching. You'll see what I mean. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the Eye of it. Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm CJ Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about defying the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows. Without Luca and Austin Rees, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid.

He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing. That man, hell get to fly. He running up the court, licking his fingers

why he got the bar like, after you go through a training camp with that, I say, you figure it out, real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're gonna get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

He killed me. He killed. You know I know, Lou. I'm just talking about the way. Bro. Jeff's talking about how I look. I'm talking about how I look. Yeah, that's Carmelo Anthony.

I mean, Melo. He knew he killed. That's 25 nights. He was in Denver, bro. He was dunking on niggies. Yeah. Bronson niggas. Yeah.

Like, he was going crazy. And unfortunately, I wish we would have got that year one Amari before he got there when he was there the entire time. I'm gonna injures played a partner at some different time. He fucked up Amari back. I mean, Marry was going. Marry dinner MVP, you know what I'm shit? Marr was hitting three.

He was going crazy. Yeah, man. Velo really fucked up in MVP, bro. Oh, God, he did. Well, Maury had fucked up his eye or something. No, I think it was killing. Man, Marry. He had that knee surgery.

Everybody said. You can't come back from, and he was killing. That nigga was hooping. And then, yeah. Mellon showed up. Mello said, yeah, swing. Yeah, hey, hey. They also came.

I recently said that James Dullen was for that trade. I always gave Mello flack for that saying, you could have waited to the summer to come to the team. They said James Dillan pushed it through because all the assets they traded from Mello. They were like, we could have had the same team with Mello if we were waiting for the summer. So that's an interesting development as well. That would have been a fire duo if it was able to work out. And they was able to keep Gallinari.

Come on, bro. With Mello on them? They had been nice. That was not sure, man. No, man. Because you know who else was hooping before Mello came? Raymond Phil. Right.

That dude was about to have an all-star year. Mello fucked it up. He was. They said, fuck, right. Who did bring Chonsie? Oh, they did bring Chonsie. They didn't have to bring it Chomsy. Hey, my nigga Ray Phil was on a tear, bro.

He played a dead Tony system looking cold. I was like, this thing about to make the all-star T's. Trade alert. I'll ask y'all both this question. If I've been in a situation in the locker room, was like somebody came to the team. You was like, what the fuck? There's somebody else in my way.

Like, damn, I was just clear. Or like, damn, now I got to deal with this, nigga. Mm. Nah. Nah. Okay, so both y'all party. Obviously, that journeyed you, you know what I'm saying? I'm saying, I was on the bench anyway, so it didn't fucking matter.

Who the fuck came to our team? Nah. It would never know trade. I've been on a team with a trade. When Jimmy got traded, no, no shit. I love Rob Covington, but I was like, ain't no way. I ain't no way. No disrespect to Rob.

Dr. Rocco. I fuck with Roco. No, I'm saying. Like, Nick, we trade Jimmy. Oh, for a for a rebirth. Yeah, it wasn't no disrespect to Cove, though, but I just remember. He was like, I'm going to Philly.

I'm like, then we got Ben Simmons? No. They were like, no. What the fuck we get? We got JJ Reddy? We got a shoulder, that? No. They're like, nah.

Who the fuck we traded for? They're like, Rob Coveton's like. I was like, man, they had to you. I'm like, our best player. Don't disrespect the Cove.

I love, because he's cool his hair, but I'm like, our best player. Hold on. All NBA player? I was like, Tiz,

what the fuck are we doing? Yeah, why did they say that happen, though, bro? Jimmy was ready to go. What are you saying? Yeah, what you get?

So, we're going to fuck, how bad you ready to go. We ain't doing this trade. Oh, my mom. I love. I love Cuck. Rial stars and Jared Baylis,

baby. Jerry Ballas came on there. The week up. That's how I began. Yeah, I said this is one of the worst trade in the NBA history. That's what led to the Somalia situation. Okay. This is one of the worst trade in the history, for sure.

Blame the sex is, man. They're the reason for it all. Damn, they had to get rid of Jimmy. They was tired of Jimmy. They was tired of Jimmy, bro, you do that. Nah, yeah, you was sick of that. Oh, Jimmy was running out of practice. They said, well, we have to do something today.

I don't go fuck. Yeah, no disrespect to Cubs. Cove was the main person in this trade. Yeah. And Cove, no. And he's like, bro, you know, Jimmy was more of a score. Obviously, Robert Cupperson was a hell of a defender 3D. got a great team player.

But it's like, bro, we got 25. We got that. That was our lead score. We had a count for her. Yeah. Our lead score left. Yeah, 10 ain't going to cut it. Yeah.

What are you guys are the same? He ever about 13, 14? Yeah. Beliga, we lost. I did my job. We lost. Shout out to him. He was the main piece.

We lost 25 a game. Yeah. We need that back. And our best offender. When you're sick of a motherfucker, you just do any fucking. Whoever y'all got. And it's upsetting. Who y'all suck up?

Just tired of dealing with this, nigga. It's unfair for you to come to a team. Just like, all right here at 25. What's you gonna do? Nigget, that is not my right. That's the whole point. They like, he was like cat and weed. Go get to be their stuff again.

He's not the greatest defense player all the time. It's not the Timberwood Sixers trade, but it'll do. Yeah, like, he's young. This is fair. Yeah, this is fair. The Brown Street, him as the first one pick, I was like they was looking for assets or Jeffers, obviously, solid player. But the Rams, bro, they already just got McGuffie, bro.

Like, what the fuck? The Rams is. This is cheating. I'm in their division. I'm pissed. My fault, y'all. It ain't close. It's my fault.

Yeah, no disrespect to Jerry Version. Miles Garrett is. Miles Garrett is all the time. He was going to pick them on Madden, bro. I love shit. That is nasty work move. That's your team. That's your team.

You playing with the Rams, but I'm not playing against you in Madden, bro. You're cheating. I'm saying he's not a bad player. He's that they on the game. No, that'd be a thing. Yeah, he's the greatest of all time, though. They got a good player is what I'm saying.

Yeah, he's a quality player. The Rams, they fuck them picks as they always have in the last 10 years. They won't have a couple selections. As you should, bro. Don't matter, bro. As you should. I do think Sean McVey is out of this year, though. That Todd Simpson pickup really pissed them off.

They said the justification was, all right, we got our quarterback for the future just in case what goes on. And now we don't care about having these draft picks because we good anyways. The Rams are cheating. I would hate to be in their division. Yeah. Don't think Aaron Donald coming back, right? If Aaron Donald comes back, that's greed. That's in the Bible, bro.

That is on the way. Get right, bro. Get your reps in all summer. Let's do it. If he's back by week eight, bro, that's cheating. I don't care if he's 75%. He is still one of the best defensive players of all time, if not top two with Miles Garrett.

What do you do against that team, bro? That'd be the greatest. That'd be the most fun I ever had on Madden, ever. Yeah, that's nasty work, man. Shout to Rams fans. I'm going to y'all are rejoicing today. Get well someone. Everybody else who got to deal with that for sure.

Also in trade news, AJ Brown to the Patriots finally happened. It's been in the work. That's all they needed right here. They got a really, really good wide receiver to go with that. team they already built last year. Happy that he moved on for the Eagles. They did not get along, but it's very, very clear.

He ain't got to deal with that shit no more. He ain't got to deal with that shit no more. You back on the J. Laertz? Hey, Trane. Yes, I'm back. Yes. Can you stand that, nigga? A.J. Brown, man, a really, really good damn receiver, for sure. I'm watching Hill this year, all because of you.

I didn't even know. He'll be in PT again this year. Oh, God. Y'all know he was still trying to play football. O.B.J. He came out for about three years. Yeah, I thought he retired. It was some other stuff that was involved in that, I believe.

Because I married at some point that he got reprimanded for something or maybe a suspension. I don't want to get too much in the allegation and stuff, but there was a reason why he was out. But yeah, back with his home squad, man, where he started it all. Giants friends, I had a hell of a couple weeks, boy. That's all I got to say about y'all.

Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever. you get your podcasts. What's up, fam?

It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Toledano, and our podcast point game is about defining the odds. Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs.

I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too.

Steve Nash would get that thing. That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers while he got the ball, like, after you go through a training camp with that, I say, you figure it out real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball.

So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Bill, Bill. I would because he got a good prosthetic. What DJ said, he's playing on? Why? I ain't doing that, but I would do that. If I can get the right prosthetic, I would do it for sure.

Let us know the chat, man. Take a loser limb, man, for Billy, man. Shout out to stuff, man. Get them money for sure. Western Conference finals, Game 7 surpass over 2 million views on social media. One of the biggest impressions ever. That was, obviously, wherever the outcome was.

But that was really good basketball, despite the injuries. How did you feel about that, man? I love it. Because the Eastern Conference Finals was a quick memory. I think, shit, the finals is about to be even bigger than this. It is. Yeah.

It's not even bigger than this. Yeah, I mean, sure. Play out basketball on the way. The Cavs, I don't know how true this is, but this is a legend, This is a little bit of wild shit. The Cavaliers had an opportunity, allegedly, to trade Darius guard for true holiday, but they said he was not reliable enough on offense.

What? What a missed opportunity, if that is true. Who made that choice? They should have pulled the point on that holiday with Donovan Mitchell. That would have been perfect, bro. Probably would have made more sense. That would have been perfect. But, I mean, they got what they got.

James Sheld-Davoid. That was cool. Yeah. I just don't even know how true this shit is. He don't got enough offensively, though. He can score, bro. Any time you can get Drew Holiday on your team, you get Drew Holiday. For sure.

You probably still get 18 and 20 a guy. For sure, bro. If it's in the team. We just seen him doing the playoffs. Yeah, I'm not in his hands, bro. Nah, well, said, all right, man. San Presley put out a little bit of info. Say, hey, man, y'all can cut that shit out by trading checks.
