Starting point is 00:31:56 that's crazy that was what 3 of 10 how y'all feel about what JJ Redick said about Doc Rivers he ain't lying. I don't knock what J.J. said, but I feel like, to me, I could be, you know, wrong.
Starting point is 00:32:15 But I feel like Doc gave J.J. an opportunity, like Pat said, when nobody else was. That wasn't true, though. But kind of, though, bro. No, it's not. No, bro, he wasn't going to go nowhere else and start. He was, though. It was hella teams. He was starting in fucking Milwaukee.
Starting point is 00:32:31 I didn't see that, bro. I'm just saying I played against J.J. Reddick. He was a quality player. I love J.J. Reddick. He went to Philly after L.A. and still started. I think at that time period, bro, J.J. was going to be a starter wherever he went. Yeah, shooting was at a premium at that time. He was going to start. I'm not saying he didn't have his
Starting point is 00:32:47 best years, but Doc Rivers, he definitely had his best years, but he was going to start. Wherever he had went, he was going to start, but he did have great years with Doc Rivers. I agree with J.J. To be honest, Doc Rivers don't really win. I ain't hating, but
Starting point is 00:33:03 any team, he won with fucking KG, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce. After that, it's been fucking quiet. It's been a lot of letdowns. That Clipper team was loaded. It was, but they had winning records though, bro. They always win. I mean, they had great regular
Starting point is 00:33:20 games. For sure. But to JJ's point, he is always making excuses. I agree to Like, Doc is a winner. But to JJ's point, he is always making excuses. I agree to that point. It's crazy. But just him going that hard at him, I was like, damn. But for Doc's point,
Starting point is 00:33:35 the players play. Like, for Doc, you're playing. Y'all all NBA players, y'all all elite level talent. Y'all all could really be coaches. Y'all could make certain adjustments on your own, really.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Yeah, but that's what I'm saying. I don't think... So I ain't blaming Doc. Yeah, and I don't think JJ, it was kind of blown out of proportion from what I feel. I feel like JJ was just expressing himself. Had a little,
Starting point is 00:33:58 put a little bit of gasoline on the fire. Nah, facts. You know what I mean? And JJ's not wrong for his opinion. I just feel like when you say shit like that, you got to kind of be ready for it to be swindled through the fire. Nah, facts. You know what I mean? And JJ's not wrong for his opinion. I just feel like when you say shit like that, you got to kind of be ready for it
Starting point is 00:34:07 to be swindled through the media the wrong way. Nah, he said what he said, but I think, you know, people just look at it like, damn, JJ, you played for him and he let you rock out.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Like, why you hating? That's like me saying something about Bud. Like, nah, Bud didn't. Da-da-da-da-da. But you don't really know the backstory. Like, it make him out of treatment in a way or something.
Starting point is 00:34:26 Right, that's why I said I didn't want to dive too deep. And I fuck with J.J. Game. And I ain't saying he was a dud and Doc picked him up off the ground. But who was better, him or Kyle Corbin? Oh, J.J. Redick is a million times better than Kyle Corbin. Who would win your day? Kyle. College and NBA.
Starting point is 00:34:42 College for sure. NBA, Kyle. Nope. Give me and NBA. College for sure. NBA, Cap. Nope. Give me and JJ, if that motherfucker got an all-star or not with these niggas, you should have got one. He's a fucking hater. What would JJ do with y'all Hawk scene?
Starting point is 00:34:57 JJ would have had a— He would have excelled with Cheeky. He would have had a good time. He would have played well, but he wouldn't have been Kyle Corver for us. He was too short. He would have started on that scene. He was too short. He would have started on that stage. He was too short. Kyle was 6'7". Okay. What else? Kyle shoot better than him.
Starting point is 00:35:13 That's tough. I like that conversation. Kyle Korver is a better shooter than J.J. Reddick. That's your guy. Nah, it's a fact. You can look it up. Tell me who shoot better. I like this conversation. Opportunity. What you mean?
Starting point is 00:35:26 You just said he started for Doc. Opportunity. I mean, Cal Corbin played with y'all. JJ was just the first quarter. He played with the best point guy. JJ. CJ. But JJ had to play with Blake and them too, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:37 That's even better. You're getting double teams. We want nobody double teaming us. And nobody on our team is getting double team. You know how I feel, bro. You did too much for Kyle, so I got a stigma, bro. It's over. What? Nobody double teamed us. He got our team was getting double teamed. You know how I feel, bro. You did too much with Kyle, so I got a stigma, bro. It's over.
Starting point is 00:35:47 What? Nobody double teamed us. He got to play with double teams. CP getting double on the ball. You told me Kyle Corbin's greatest shooter ever, bro. Yeah, he definitely top five.

If he going to rock with Kyle over JJ, that's fine. Nah, Kyle's out the gate. Who's a better shooter, Mike? He don't fucking know fucking. He watched Phil Mickelson swing.

Starting point is 00:58:23 In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there. And if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

Starting point is 01:06:42 gonna hit the extra after the All-Star break? Milwaukee. And I ain't saying that to be funny. I just think, like, they do. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:06:52 Like, they've been playing. They ain't been up and down. It's like, they got too many good players. Like, I'm sure Chris Middleton gonna come back a little more healthier. Hopefully.
Starting point is 01:07:01 Dame and Giannis gonna build their relationship a little better. And it's like, it's, they too good not to hit a stride, not to hit that moment. And if Clippers caught theirs, Milwaukee should catch theirs. And I think the way we criticize Milwaukee, yo, they're still like top three in the East. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like regardless of what they went through this year, they're still top three in the East.
Starting point is 01:07:19 Facts, facts. And with Embiid being out, we probably don't know how long he's out. Regardless, they still have a chance to win the East they have the firepower and like you said in a series you really don't want
Starting point is 01:07:29 to see Giannis you don't want to see Dane agreed what's y'all West Coast team bro I'm conflicted because I feel like the Nuggets about to start playing
Starting point is 01:07:38 basketball for real and I feel like if Yoke is just really on that it's going to be tough for the Nuggets to outdo him yeah I can respect that for some reason something is clicking I feel like if Yoke is just really on that, it's going to be tough for Nick to outdo him. Yeah. I can respect that.
Starting point is 01:07:45 For some reason, something is clicking. I think, like, Dallas is going to hit a stride. Like, I feel like they just started getting their pieces. They just got. EJ. Yeah, they just got their pieces. So, I feel like with my boy from Washington, they came from the Wizards, Gafford.
Starting point is 01:08:02 Dale Gafford. Yeah, they got P.J. Washington. I feel like they're going to start hitting their stride. They finally got some bigs. Some more lob threats. And I think Kyrie has been overlooked this year. You know what I mean? True.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Didn't make all-star. People not really talking about him. People kind of forget that he him. He one of them. So I feel like it's an opportunity for him to hit his stride. And then they get in the playoffs. And we know what Kyrie can do in a playoff situation. Him and Luke are going to be crazy.
Starting point is 01:08:27 I think that's the scary part about that team. Like you said, they finally filled out the roster they need. Tim Hardaway has been playing well this year. I've always been critical of Tim Hardaway, but he's playing very, very well this year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. In a seven-game series, bro, you don't really want to deal with Luke and Kyrie.
Starting point is 01:08:39 No. Because they can go win four games. Yeah, they can do that. Can they beat Phoenix? If Brad Bill is not healthy, yes. If Brad Bill is healthy, he's a little different. Can't nobody guard Luka.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Like, can't nobody guard KD. Can't nobody really guard D-Book, but Luka advantage is way too crazy. Like, nobody can guard Luka. And he goes at Devin Booker. He goes at the Suns, but he goes at D-Book. Yeah, like, nobody can guard Luka.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Like, it's not close. And then if you gotta worry about Luka and you got your second best defender on Kyrie, that's curtains. Yeah. Like, that's cooked.
Starting point is 01:09:14 Like, if you got your best defender on Luka and your second best on Kyrie, now, niggas forget Kyrie really the best player in the NBA. Skill for, like, pound for pound with skill.
Starting point is 01:09:23 And you got your second best defender on him. Y'all are cooked. I see Iverson do a Shaq podcast. He was like, yes, Kyrie's the best pressure that I've driven with basketball. Yeah, he got the best handles by far. I thought that was fire to hear. Yeah, he got the best.
Starting point is 01:09:35 Like, yeah, especially from the GOAT. Like, AI the GOAT. When it comes to this dribbling shit, a lot of people wanted to be like Iverson, but Kyrie took that shit over. Yeah. I still got the Clippers as my favorites. I want it all, though. I respect that. I like it. I mean, shit, like you said people wanted to be like, Iverson, McCary took that shit over. I still got the Clippers as my favorites. I want it all, though. I respect that. I mean, shit, like you said, before I started writing, they was clicking. Everybody's back healthy. They're playing really
Starting point is 01:09:51 well. I just think the problem with the Nuggets is that having a big, that good, that disadvantage in the playoffs is just tough to deal with. Because when it boils down to it, if Jokic feel like it, bro, he just can go in the post and kill niggas. Yeah. But the wings that the Clippers have is crazy, bro. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:08 If they play up and down, the Clipper, I mean, the Nuggets can keep up, but I don't know, bro. I just see Paul George taking over, bro. He do. I just see Paul George taking over, man. And with James Harden playing that role he playing, bro, they on paper, bro, they, on paper, bro, they just look incredible. No, they
Starting point is 01:10:27 unbelievable. But, like, you gotta think if they play Luka and Kyrie, they gonna get the switch. No offense. You know how I feel about James Harden. I think he's one of the greatest players ever. Right. But they gonna attack him. Yeah. They gonna get the switch with Luka and James attack. Kyrie, James attack. Like, they gonna make him
Starting point is 01:10:44 guard. And I don't know how long he gonna be able to guard he might he can contain him for a little bit but I don't think he can guard them for
Starting point is 01:10:51 so who will have to be the X factor for the Clippers to well obviously Kawhi and PG gonna have to be cause Luka can't guard either so James Harden
Starting point is 01:10:59 Kyrie I mean James Harden PG Kawhi they can do the same thing to Luka but it's like who can do it longer?
Starting point is 01:11:05 Pause. Like, who? That's crazy. No, you know what I'm saying? Who can score more? And the problem is, if they play Dallas Pace, then it could get ugly because they ain't trying to defend. That's true.
Starting point is 01:11:16 Yeah. Man, yo, Kings, you made a comment. I fuck with the Kings, man. I think the Kings probably need to get a little bit better because they've been inconsistent. But they're another team I can see. Sabonis been hooping, man. I think the Kings probably need to get a little bit better because they've been inconsistent. But they're another team I can see. Sabonis has been hooping, man. Sabonis talked about that earlier, but Sabonis has been hooping.
Starting point is 01:11:30 D-Fox has been hooping. They finally catching their rhythm back. But the West is going to be crazy. It's really going to matter about seedings this year, for real, for real. I'm excited to see what Minnesota is going to do, too. I wonder if they can upkeep what they've been doing so far. I believe in the Timberwolves? I believe in Anthony Edwards.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Y'all know how I rock. I fuck with AE, but I don't. It's different when it comes to them offs, though. Yeah, the playoffs, I don't. He built for that. AE built for that. It's about the team, though. Yeah, I don't know how they team match up with other teams
Starting point is 01:12:04 because Gobert in the playoffs is a tough, like, him being in is tough. People are going to expose that because people play so small. Yeah. And he's not like a threat to score. Like, I'm not saying he ain't a good player, but he don't post small guys up so you can play a small to guard him. And to me, he don't run a floor good enough. Not for what they might face.
Starting point is 01:12:28 Yeah. Because you look at them playing against OKC, bro, that's a terrible matchup. That's enough. Them boys, them OKC boys.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Shay looking like a VP. Shay nasty. Shay look like a VP, bro. He looking crazy. He hitting on my pal with some shit the other night. That behind the back, and in it goes.
Starting point is 01:12:43 Damn. That was crazy. The guy went down in the basement and started night. That behind the back? Damn. That was crazy. The guy went down in the basement and started practicing. Can I stop like that? Couldn't. Nah, that was crazy.
Starting point is 01:12:52 He said couldn't. I said, this nigga here is different. That's a good matchup though. Yeah, so is it. That's a good matchup. I just think OKC might be too young
Starting point is 01:13:01 for the Clips though. They might be, but... They might not have to catch them till later though. But the playoffs is going to be... They might not have to catch them until later, though. But the playoffs are going to be interesting. It's going to be a great year for basketball. I'm intrigued to see the East, though, because you got a lot of middle-of-the-pack teams.
Starting point is 01:13:13 Yeah, it's top-heavy in the East, for sure. But that makes for the best basketball. Like, us getting a Pacers-Knicks matchup would be crazy. That would be fire. That'd be good. Who y'all got? Pacers-Knicks? The Kn be crazy. That would be fun. That'd be good. Who y'all got? Pacers-Knicks? The Knicks are a better team right now.
Starting point is 01:13:28 When they're healthy, they're a better team. Getting bogey, bro. It's crazy, bro. Getting bogey and Alex Berkhoff, the bitch, is cheating, bro. Yeah, getting bogey is crazy. As much as I like Julius Randle, I think them playing without Julius Randle has helped their team. I think once they get OG back,
Starting point is 01:13:42 I think that the Knicks are a really tough team to deal with. I mean, I'm rocking with the Pacers, but I think that Knicks team are a really tough team to deal with I mean I'm rocking with the Pacers but I think that Knicks team the way Jalen Bruston killing this year bro it's going to take a lot to beat them for real
Starting point is 01:13:51 they're not going to be no walkover yeah they're a good team also shit nobody's talking about Cleveland but they hooping too they are I just don't think
Starting point is 01:13:59 they got enough Donovan Mitchell been balling bro special for sure he been balling nah he's he's definitely
Starting point is 01:14:06 one of them ones for sure like I sit down and talk to him I had to realize like I had to after we talked to him I went back
Starting point is 01:14:12 and looked at they roster and they stats and how they been I'm like damn this nigga really balling killer yeah like
Starting point is 01:14:18 so they might be a tough out too also contract gear you already know what's up contract gear it ain't even no question you know what's up with him. Contract gear. It ain't even no question. You know what it is.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Big Max. If he don't get it, he getting maxed wherever he go. Yeah, where do I sign that? Yeah, so,
Starting point is 01:14:33 wherever he want. You see the rumors of either him or Trae Young to the Lakers. You know, the Lakers swear they get every fucking body
Starting point is 01:14:37 every offseason, but I don't want him to go to the Lakers. I don't want him to be in them shit. It might create bad habits. Not even bad habits. I like Donovan Mitchell being the star that he is.
Starting point is 01:14:50 Him and Trae Young. I like Trae Young in Atlanta. He give us him in Atlanta. He fit Atlanta. You like Donovan Mitchell more and we ain't disrespect him. You like him more on a small market level. I like him in somewhere like New York too. Not saying right now. He'd be fire in New York
Starting point is 01:15:06 because he's a star. And his game is star. He'd fuck around and go for 50. On any given night, he's a star, but I don't want him to go somewhere where like the... I don't want him to go to the Lakers. You think him and Jalen Brass could coexist? If he went to... their defense
Starting point is 01:15:21 is going to be shitty. But if they go to the Knicks, it would be fire. But I don't know if you want to give up Dante, Bogey, and all them for Donovan Mitchell. I'm not saying he can't be a star. But that's a backslide. And I just meant if the team was blank and Donovan Mitchell was in a big market— Oh, he'd be fired. I'm not trying to put him on the agenda.
Starting point is 01:15:41 I'm fitting him in the scheme of things. Yeah. And I don't think, like, you would be a fool if you gave up Dante DiVincenzo, Josh Hart, Bogey, and all them. They fit perfect with what y'all got. But if all you got to give up is Julius Randle and one of them to get Donovan Mitchell. Sign.
Starting point is 01:16:01 Yeah, you got to do it. Same bet. I mean, they're not probably a contended team but they gon put on a show every night him and Jalen Brunson yeah they gon put on a show but y'all might not win shit
Starting point is 01:16:11 but y'all gon put on a show but with the way the NBA is set up now though what team would y'all drop him on if y'all could just put fuck the salary cap if y'all could just put
Starting point is 01:16:18 Donovan on the team now that's a good question what would y'all send him I love him in Cleveland honestly but you mean like a team I think can win That's a good question. What would y'all send him? I love him in Cleveland, honestly. But you mean like a team I think can win? Yeah. Like where would you throw him at?
Starting point is 01:16:36 That's where it gets tough for me because I look at the contenders and I'm looking at most of the contenders who got two guards. I'm kind of like, even if Donovan is better, he'd probably make more money than them. So do you want to give up that money? Because like you said, you are going to take away a rotational player. even if Donovan is better, he probably make more money than them. So do you want to give up that money? Because like he said, you are going to take away a rotational player. And it is very evident that you kind of need that.
Starting point is 01:16:54 Yeah, if you drop him on the Knicks, he take away from too many people they got. He fit Cleveland right now because it's built to, like, they need that. What he got, what he do, they need. But don't nobody else need that. Yeah. I'd like to see him
Starting point is 01:17:07 on Orlando. I know they guard heavy, but I'd like to see him on Orlando with that young core. Having to prove his score, he might make life easier. They got so many
Starting point is 01:17:15 fucking guards. They got a lot of guards, so. But I like, I like how they doing. They like a hard-working group. Like, I ain't saying Don Mitchell
Starting point is 01:17:23 ain't hard-working, for sure he is, but he takes away from Paulo. Let Paulo be the feature. Orlando, damn near a blue-collar team. Boy, they got brothers on the same team hooping, bro. Paulo crazy. PB5 is elite.
Starting point is 01:17:38 I don't know, but I fuck with it. I'm rolling. And on that note, we will get up out of here. Shout out to the Henny. You know what I'm saying? Appreciate y'all. I know what time it is. Who might be in the city
