Starting point is 00:05:22 I'm good Now I have a question This is a great place to start If you send somebody a question, you know what I'm saying, via text, and they hit the thumbs up emoji, is that a valid response or is that out of pocket? Because I know some people who take that as disrespect.
Starting point is 00:05:32 I mean, it kind of is, though. That's just like, shout out to Kaya. I know Kaya James, somebody, she sent somebody a happy birthday, and they just hearted it. They didn't say thank you. She was pissed. I do that shit.
Starting point is 00:05:47 That's what I do. You just like some shit? Yeah, I mean, writing thank you just take too long. Double clicking. I'm a copy paste guy. You got no standby? That take too long. It's in my notes, bro. Thank you is in your notes?

Starting point is 00:06:51 yeah but i'm saying that's what that was us though yeah on that bike nigga it was murder i see you it was murder i didn't even have no curfew in the neighborhood so that was even more wicked i had to be in when the street lights came on yeah street lights was definitely indicator and the funny shit is now i laugh at kids because shit back in the day your mom asked you to do something click up all day mom i see it nowadays hey take that beat out of refrigerator all damn i ain't talk to you they send you a text and a call i'd be mad if i was a kid now you can't finish your parents at all yeah by the time that got to happening i was already out the house yeah i used to leave the crib at 7.30 in the morning, nigga.
Starting point is 00:07:27 In the summer? Oh, yeah, niggas was active. What? Nigga, I'd be outside by 8 on the bike. Niggas would be like, I remember Phil's dad used to be like, hey, my man, you got to eat breakfast somewhere else. I used to be at his house eating breakfast at 8 in the morning. There's a lot of them
Starting point is 00:07:45 Well It's 18 And they've been a career I had another bagel That's the AAU squad I used to be there So early You and Dale Rodgers
Starting point is 00:07:54 Go home On God bro Yeah pulling up You was out of pocket Coming to somebody's house At eight is crazy I was there Every day
Starting point is 00:08:00 I was there so early I could not go Fill the door I think I'd be like What's up Getting in the I could not go fill a door. That nigga be like, what's up? Getting a shower, man, it's time to go.
Starting point is 00:08:08 That nigga be like, damn, nigga. I'll take summer school already. I don't want to do this shit every day. Poor Phil.
Starting point is 00:08:16 He's been stressing for a long time. My fault, Phil. My bad, bro. That's crazy. Hey,
Starting point is 00:08:22 man, as we know, summer league is slowly approaching. But what I think is dope about the summer league, of who you feel about who's playing and whatnot i think it's fire because a lot of those guys um may not have an opportunity to be with that particular team but everybody is low-key kind of auditioning you know i'm saying for their next season um it was interesting seeing ronald holly jefferson talk about like you know i'm saying he was like
Starting point is 00:08:42 he was out the league a little bit early. He'd been going crazy overseas, like waiting to get an opportunity to get back. And I was just seeing his testimony and stuff. And then you see like, oh, but we talking about in China going through it. It's just like,
Starting point is 00:08:53 yeah, the NBA is a premier league, but everybody in the summer right now who hooping is hooping for a job that's probably won't be in a league. So everybody ain't out there on bullshit. Niggas careers have been built off that. Yeah, I see how people
Starting point is 00:09:04 take it in the big three. They take it serious. Like, in my head, when I was going to the big three, I was like, about to be cool. Like, I'm like, yeah, in the middle of the game,
Starting point is 00:09:11 I'm going to start podcasting and shit. But I see how serious they take it. It's like, oh, they really auditioning for other shit, though. And I didn't really realize that
Starting point is 00:09:19 until I got out there and, like, niggas, like, I hear them in the locker room. Like, I'm trying to go back to Italy. I'm trying to go here. I'm trying to, like, oh i'm trying to oh they playing for real okay my fault you have no disrespect but same thing with summer league yeah it was crazy to hear him talk about that situation he's like you know i'm saying i'll do whatever i need to get back in the league and you even see
Starting point is 00:09:38 too many bad allegations against him but they got a lot of people on the other side of it like okay you got players like miles bridge you got players like kevin porter who went through some real crazy situations that in other times would have probably got them out of the league or out the way to get new contracts and get new money and it's just like a lot of people feel different ways about it but i'm like at the same time this is an opportunity that a lot of people gonna take and i like summer league i was sure niggas is playing for their lives in the day like it might look fun may look a little like today's good now niggas is hooping for a totally different reason and that's low-key the best type of basketball when niggas is hooping on the line nah yeah uh when you like on a guarantee
Starting point is 00:10:12 contract like you're a rookie or a second year player it's kind of annoying like if you're a rookie you're trying to impress people if you're a second year player you're trying to solidify like i shouldn't be here but you're trying to kill in the first two games you're trying to get 35 points so they can send you home because you low-key offended a little bit yeah especially if you play your rookie year you really offended but like you ain't get to play that much every year you're just trying to show like yo i'm better than them yeah dmp mate yeah hell yeah because i was looking at some of the rosters even like the california classic and stuff like uh we're gonna talk about Zach Eady, too. Put me in the game completely out of pocket.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Shout out to the gang. But I was looking at, like, the Jazz. Like, Walker Kessler, bro, why are you playing? Like, I see some of them. But, like, some of them guys, especially some, like, even some Pacer dudes who played in rotation in the Easter Conference, bro, I would feel offended if I'm out here too late. I know I can hoop, but what am I doing out here? If I'm playing rotational minutes in the playoffs, why, bro, I would feel offended if I'm out here too late. I know I can hoop,
Starting point is 00:11:05 but what am I doing out here? If I'm playing rotational minutes in the playoffs, why am I in Summer League? Someone probably just do it for the wreck too, bro. Yeah. But,
Starting point is 00:11:13 that's like to solidify, like, you shouldn't be here. Like, give us one or two games. Dominate them. But if you don't dominate, it's like,
Starting point is 00:11:21 hmm, what you been doing since the, blah, blah, blah. That's a risk too, because if you go in them games that don't kill, it's kind of like, hmm, what you been doing since the blah, blah, blah. That's a risk too because if you go in them games that don't kill, it's kind of like,
Starting point is 00:11:28 we can get rid of this. Yeah. That was going to be my counterpoint. Get rid of this thing. If you go kill, you're expected to kill because you done played
Starting point is 00:11:36 in real minutes. But if you out here and get hooped on, it's just like, oh, maybe this is bullshit. Because if you're in rotational minutes in the playoffs,
Starting point is 00:11:43 you should go to the league. I ain't saying somebody can get 50, but you should be 25. But the thing is, your role on that team is different than it is going to be on the Summer League team. Like, some people are better NBA players than they are Summer League players. Like, I might fit a role on a team. I might be a catch-and-shoot, knock-down three,
Starting point is 00:12:01 but I'm playing with Tyrese Halliburton, so I know I'm waiting in the corner. I'm ready to shoot. I'm in Summer League. I ain't playing with tyree salaburton so i know i'm waiting in the corner i'm ready to shoot i'm in summer league i ain't playing with tyree salaburton i'm playing with a boy that just came from georgia he ain't passing the ball like that so they expect me to go get the ball and be tyree salaburton and do some stuff that i really can't do no more because i've been playing yeah because i've been playing with this dude and i didn't in a row. And I remember my second year coming into summer league. We didn't do summer league my rookie year, but my second year going into summer league,
Starting point is 00:12:31 I had already been in the NBA mindset, like, picking pop with Al. You know what I mean? Picking pop with Joe Smith. I'm being a point guard now in the summer league. They want you to go out there and get 30. I'm like, now, if this was the year before, I would have gave y'all 35 every game. But now, now this year i'm in this mode where i'm looking for pocket passes kicking it to the corner and you playing with a bunch of dudes that don't know nothing about
Starting point is 00:12:54 yeah so you look bad i look kind of bad my second year it wasn't like i was killing me and jordan crawford was just taking turns shooting but i wasn't looking looking, like, good. I'll never forget that. And that's very interesting that you said that because I think the one thing that people kind of miss when those situations, if you got somebody who specializes in the open gym, at some point, they're going to look like that nigga. But if you have a player who's used to a system
Starting point is 00:13:16 where you used to play in a particular way, where guys don't know nothing about that, they're all probably rookies from the 18, where they shot the ball 15 times. Coming into a system, you're already mature then. That shit's a hell of a balance. And it makes you look bad, but you're doing everything the organization wants you to do. But then they might ridicule you on that shit, which is crazy at the same time.
Starting point is 00:13:32 I mean, yeah, because at the end of the day, it's still hoop. So it's like you got to go out there and perform. But it's kind of difficult if you're not just a natural bucket getter. If you're just a natural bucket getter, hooper, just a natural bucket getter hooper like you're jamal crawford he can play anywhere because every team he went to they just told him to do you like be that everybody's gonna get that privilege and it's always a lot of dudes that's nice that you'll see him like how the hell he ain't in the nba if he ain't get that same leash just to go out there and be like go do do that. But, part of the game. That shit sparked the conversation
Starting point is 00:14:06 because I was watching some summer league highlights and I watched J.R. Smith play in the summer league in 2009 after he had been in the league for five or six years. I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:14:14 He was out there killing it, bro. This is where I want to get the ring, bro. Yeah, he one of them dudes. And then, five or six years, your confidence so high. now, if you put me in a summer league game at year three or four,
Starting point is 00:14:26 I would have went berserk. Because my confidence was so high. But, like, in your first year, after your first year, and you didn't get to play, you really ain't that confident. Like, you're kind of like, damn, I want to kill. But, nigga, you ain't played in a year, really. So, your confidence might be a little low. But, after four or five, I done started.
Starting point is 00:14:46 I done had 35 points in the NBA. This is going to be a breeze. Hell yeah. And I think what's so dope about it now that they've made it so marketable, you got the marquee games on, you got the young rookies that you just saw in college, but you're excited to see even some of the second-year players we was talking about come back.
Starting point is 00:15:02 We talked about last episode a little bit, but I'm really excited to see that timberwolf summer league team uh i think rob dillingham is a person who can go out there and really i mean all right he got a name obviously but he could go out there and really make a big showing because we look at people like donovan mitchell who went out there and killed and got a shoe deal off that shit now we obviously know that ain't normal but is there any names i want to see in the summer league or any people y'all y'all know i'm saying, who y'all see transition like? Because, you know,
Starting point is 00:15:25 a lot of times in college they get held back by programs and college coaches. Now you're going to see a little bit of, all right, all right, go show us why you a lottery pick type shit.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Yeah, I just, me personally, I just, like I said, I only, I'm only here for connect. Everybody else can just do their thing, bro. I don't,
Starting point is 00:15:41 I don't care about Summer League because I know what's the answer. Yeah, he hates that shit. He can say, you know, he's like, does that shit need to be resolved? He know that shit don't i don't care about summer league because i know what's that he hates because you don't get that same freedom so even though rob go out there and he can have 65 points in the game it's gonna be hard but i'm like damn he can score that month yeah nigga when he get to that team anthony edwards is getting that ball. Yeah. It's getting the ball. Yeah. He might get you about eight or nine, ten off the bench,
Starting point is 00:16:08 but he ain't going to have the ball like that. For sure. You want to know what the best thing about being a sports fan is?

That's crazy, bro. He like, and I know people, oh, he's just high always in high school like nah you can tell in the motherfucking game he really liked that bro he called him and aj i
Starting point is 00:21:31 be fucking up his name i think it's the bandsaw whatever bro aj the bass so what's funny they are really pros for real bro yeah so mount verdon got him all the way together he's from maine too like that yeah so he ain't really grow up hooping with like we did you know i mean in our city or chicago or new york like he really went to work bro in maine and then went to that big ass eybl circuit and dominated then dominated at mount verd he gonna kill it duke he the number one draft pick the thing is you could tell when somebody's just special like he got a twin brother or a brother or something he don't look like him don't he not tall as him he don't jump like him he play a big man he's like six seven cooper flag
Starting point is 00:22:20 like six ten you can tell like the booze swim. They both good, but one just special. Like, you can tell it. You can see it. That's why I was like, yeah, he not. Boozer supposed to go straight out of high school. He supposed to be able
Starting point is 00:22:33 to go straight out of high school. We really just holding him back. Like, that one year at Duke ain't going to do nothing but hurt him. Like, God forbid this happen or something,
Starting point is 00:22:41 but he twisted his ankle and got set out the whole year. You know, some shit like Kyrie. Ain't no point for him to go into college, bro. He was an NBA player, bro. He played 10 games in college. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And you look at AJ DeVance, bro. He's going to murder at the next level. He's still 17. He got another year of school. He even jumped up. Like, we can tell them ones. Like, the rules don't apply
Starting point is 00:23:00 to everybody, but special players like them, we know they like that. But to see him in that scrimmage was fire to see. Like, I know the select team, everybody back out of the select team is players like them, we know they like that. But to see him in that scrimmage was fire to see. Like, I know the select team, everybody back at the select team has said, no, they're typically pro players. Like, the Vickens can hoop too.
Starting point is 00:23:11 No, they good. He was just doing, man, he was doing my boy Wyclef bad. I mean, 6'10". Like, I'm just saying, bro, I was like, to be going at, like, Drew like that is crazy, bro. Confidence. He was just out there hoping yeah i mean but it's easy to play when you playing free yeah it's easy to play when there ain't no rules really for you you really the test dummy so it's easy i mean as a 17 year old you really can't do no wrong everything is a green for you even if you're getting killed he's 17 yeah and i'm planning
Starting point is 00:23:46 yeah yeah 17 but if you have a moment like you just said he scored on drew they like only 17 so he it was a win-win situation this whole thing for him but this just solidified him being the number one pick to have success against the usa team and all them star caliber players yeah it's it's a done deal yeah he getting to it and I like the fact that they scrimmage. Like, I seen Trace out there, which was fire to see. But I think what's so crazy is that they voted that LeBron was the best player on the team USA. Listen, y'all. I get it.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Who voted that? Apparently, the team voted LeBron was the best player on the team. They just said in practice. Yeah. But LeBron is that dominant, though. Where he could take over a practice bro especially in that usa shit he's a godfather now yeah i'm showing that picture of him at oh four and then now i'm like bro you've been on the team 20 years bro but like
Starting point is 00:24:37 like him like everybody's saying that he practiced so hard and he worked so hard and practiced but it's like i used to didn't believe that kind of shit. But now I really believe it. Because, like, bro, you've been that good for that long, bro. It takes a certain type of work. Like, I just think about getting up every day now and, like, I go work out. But I don't do nothing crazy. I'm trying to maintain some shit so I don't look crazy.
Starting point is 00:25:01 Like, to be that good for that long since you was 18 yeah bro you're worth that there gotta be something crazy bro and i remember a couple years ago bro he had a quote and he was talking about like having rest time he was like shit my body hurt when i have rest he said i'm used to getting up and doing everything string was every day that's how i maintain i'm like yeah that nigga different bro because there's no way you can get up and say damn arrest day hurts but if you've been moving like that since she was 14 years old, your body probably just used to that. He different, bro.
Starting point is 00:25:30 He the healthiest NBA player ever, bro. Yeah, for sure. For sure. He ain't never had a serious injury. I mean, he had his ankle that one year, but that really wasn't too much of none. Yeah, Lakers was still kind of tanking, too. That Laker year. But I remember watching LeBron
Starting point is 00:25:45 severely twist his ankle, him tie his shoe, limp down the court and catch the ball at half court and come back and dunk. No, nigga. Deshaun Stevenson
Starting point is 00:25:52 is my witness, bro. This nigga rolled his ankle. I swear to God, that bitch touched the floor. We got, like, we ain't hypey hurt, but we like, he's out.
Starting point is 00:26:02 We got the witness game. He's out. No, shit, i ain't lying nigga did like this like that i said nigga start wiggling his foot and stay in the game when i think it was the heat yeah i was like he's he's alien yeah i said he's not real bro what got activated my boy touched the ground did that and start wiggling that's what i said you weren't supposed to see that bro yeah i was I said he's not real Bro I got activated Bro I'm talking about That boy touched the ground Did that And start looking
Starting point is 00:26:26 That's what I said You weren't supposed to see that bro Yeah I was like yeah That's that monster Yeah I said something Fuckin' pushed that button Yeah something kicked in bro Something kicked in
Starting point is 00:26:37 Fuckin' pushed that button Me and Deshaun Stevenson Looked at each other like I'm like yeah he out Yes About to win That's crazy. I wouldn't hope he was severely hurt,
Starting point is 00:26:48 but shit, he twisted. I ain't going to know you out. I did that a hundred times. You got to sit that one out. You just did it. Yeah. I'm like, you got to sit that out. He hit a yoga pose. He came back and dropped the point and missed the game. Running faster. He came back stronger. That boy got activated.
Starting point is 00:27:03 Hey, remember the LeBron Deshaun Stevenson beat where Jayce dissed him over a blow to whistle beat that's crazy that's a crazy diss record shout out to D. Steve
Starting point is 00:27:12 getting dissed over a song for the freaks is crazy they can talk about these hoes bro who want you a ho D. Steve they said Soulja Boy
Starting point is 00:27:22 wrote D. Steve a diss track for LeBron for something i can't remember i gotta probably soldier boy is the ghost writer that's a problem i gotta nah he ain't right i mean i think soldier boy did something with d steve came to the game or something d steve man that's crazy that's crazy bronco got ho john steve got soldier boy yeah shout Yeah. Sean Steve, one of the coolest teammates I ever had, bro. He was cool.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Yeah, I want him to come on the show and talk about that time when him and Gilbert were shooting, when Gilbert beat him. Like, I want to, because I- Please define when you say Gilbert shooting,
Starting point is 00:27:56 because, you know, that goes a couple different ways on the internet. Nah, bro. I'm on the court. We'll get rid of him. Yeah, there we go. I want to hear, like,
Starting point is 00:28:03 how that started and shit, because niggas talk about- I'm just saying that y'all talking about work ethic. Niggas say Gilbert, the witness work ethic is crazy. Yeah, second to none. Everybody know that in the league. They like Gilbert crazy. And that's crazy because you would think at that level where so many people kind of not log in with talent. Because everybody in the NBA has talent to an extent.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Either if it's on a lower or higher, everybody's code to get to that level. But that work ethic shit really be be meaning shit especially at that like it separates the superstars from the all-stars to the mid-tier players but i can also see when you get comfortable enough on the contract bro i can kind of relax a little bit like i undeveloped my game now that's the kryptonite for everybody that happened to me i bit that i bit that bug too a little bit like i got comfortable like yeah shit that's all i gotta do get 15 16 8 assists i can do that in my sleep and then you just stop not working you still work because you want to be good but you don't put in that extra you see the people who put in extra
Starting point is 00:28:57 you start seeing them take a little more step like you still at 15 You see Drew Holiday go to 18. You're still at 16. Drew Holiday at 20. You're like, okay. Now you're trying to – you took two years off. You behind. So you see it, though. But then they maintaining their body. They doing all that stuff to make them better players.
Starting point is 00:29:19 And that's the reason they still playing. That's interesting. And I got to ask you this. Did you ever, I mean, you was aware of who your draft class was and probably people who wasn't,
Starting point is 00:29:27 you know, like when you was getting signed, like free agents to get around. Who going to be available? Were you available? Did you like kind of keep up on their stats? I know you mentioned with Drew
Starting point is 00:29:34 and stuff, but did you ever kind of pay attention to that? No, I only did that one time. That's when me and Drew Holiday was going to be free agents at the same time.
Starting point is 00:29:41 And I knew that me and him was going to get paid from the Pacers and he was going to get paid from the pacers and he's gonna get paid from the pelicans but like i think y'all know the story how it fell through because paul george left or whatever yeah that's the only time i ever really paid attention i ain't really care i ain't never really checked nobody else pockets because i money don't mean all that to me like that i just wanted to always be comfortable take care of my my mom and dad i
Starting point is 00:30:02 ain't really give a fuck about but But then when you see the numbers, you be like, damn. I can get this. Oh, I could get that? Like, he got $120,000 a day? What the fuck? I can get that? Yeah, I was going to say,
Starting point is 00:30:16 I know you, like you say, you mind your own money. And most people do that. But then when you start seeing what you signed for, somebody else get that ESPN alert. Like, he signed for what? Yeah, you can't do that, though. That's when you get fucked up do that though that's when you get spooky yeah you start worrying about what the next
Starting point is 00:30:28 man got you start ruining your blessings bro i don't i don't do that i just be happy for that too yeah that's real because i was looking at paul george um paul george's contact about his situation with the clippers um i got mixed feelings about it and i understand why he feels his way about it as well but i think some of that towards the end of it was hey you can't really be worried about what everybody else getting because you just got worried about what you got going on and sometimes that can ruin the situation and basically off response is kind of how he talked it seemed like philly was the last option that he wanted to be at this offseason which is kind of interesting to go into the season
Starting point is 00:31:01 with that like i mean they got a whip now they're gonna be good for sure but it's kind of interesting to see how he felt about the contract negotiations with the clippers how that panned out and then you look at the time periods a lot of different stuff he's like okay you didn't really get along with the clippers in a situation that then at the time that you're saying y'all didn't have no communication as far as contract wise is when y'all went in a bad slump and he was just like let me get out my feelings like let me just get back to ball but then we look in the offseason now it's like all right it looked like philly was your last option slash resort in the situation you saying that made it all make sense like yeah when you
Starting point is 00:31:32 kind of look at those situations the contract wise it could fuck your game up and fucking mental up yeah you start worrying about when i'm gonna get paid who got paid when i'm gonna get this i ain't gonna lie bro i swear my contract got broke out in hives bro i'm went to the trainer like something wrong i got shit all over i'm like what the fuck i done got a bad batch you know i mean something i was like what's going on and he like oh these are hives he's like here you gotta take some benadryl like you gotta alert your reaction to something so i'm like damn what i eat oh you know i mean i'm thinking like it's like you eat fish like did you do you eat seafood take some Benadryl. Like, you got allergic reaction to something. So, I'm like, damn, what'd I eat? Oh. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:32:06 Well, I'm thinking like, it's like, you eat fish. Like, did you eat seafood? Did you eat something you don't normally eat? So,
Starting point is 00:32:11 I'm sitting there, they do all these, they do all these tests on you in the NBA. You know what I'm saying? They take you to the doctor, do all these tests on you. He came back,
Starting point is 00:32:18 he's like, no, you just got a high. He's like, man, are you stressing? Oh, I was going through the ringer.
Starting point is 00:32:23 I shot 28% tonight. God tonight god damn i gotta be at 38 40 get this money like i was doing all that shit i was going crazy man i was so happy when i signed that dude i'd never wear it again after that but that first time that was the first contract 32 because you know i was like i was nervous as hell you know they tell you you only got four like the average uh lifespan of an nba player the average is four years yeah i'm in year four i'm like shit if i don't get this deal like shit i ain't gonna i don't know where i'm going i go overseas i'm thinking all this shit i'm not overseas too you're not realizing that you starting in the nba you're going to get a deal.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Yeah. But you're like, damn, I just want to make sure. And I was just stressing. Man, you broke out of highs. I didn't know that one. Yeah, I was stressing crazy, bro. That's crazy, bro. Hell yeah, you had to be, nigga.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Yeah, I'm talking about every game you looking at shit. Imagine that, bro. You feel like your life on the line. Every time you play, you like, nigga, I ain't shooting three times i was doing all type of shit bro you're trying to save the mg man what i was doing all type of shit that just wasn't even like part of the game like like half court shots no sir would never shoot that you're not painting pressure nope i throw somebody else dribble the clock out act like i couldn't get him out once man everything was about stats and numbers and then you got people telling you like you know i mean
Starting point is 00:33:49 yeah instead of like just yeah instead of people like yo just hoop just hoop like just kill you gonna have fun they like you gotta shoot over you gotta be 45 for the field and get closer to that three man i don't think you can shoot it get to like 35 36 so when you get there you like shit i ain't shooting no more threes and you like man i'm out here playing bad because i'm worried about this and that's one because i'll never forget draymond trying to um trying to make fun of moe harkless for stepping in off the three-point line taking him long too he's like you scared to shoot three he said nick i got a contract bonus fuck what you talking about it's 500k is secure. I'm not shooting a three
Starting point is 00:34:25 for the next three months. I'm telling you, bro, that shit be in your head. That's why, that's why I don't bet. Like, I don't gamble. But when we do, we use DraftKings.
Starting point is 00:34:35 But when we do, we use DraftKings, but I don't because I know I've been one of those dudes. Yeah. She'll tell me about that paper. When they just read that paper
Starting point is 00:34:43 and see them numbers. Yeah. That shit is spooky, bro. But if I was a betting man I would win a lot of money Cause I would just look And see what we're in Contract year And I'd be like
Starting point is 00:34:54 Oh I know what he about to do I could win money Now that's smart Cause the average bettor Don't know shit about that Mm-mm All you gotta do is Find out who in their contract year
Starting point is 00:35:04 They gonna play their best best basketball that fucking year. Oh, yeah. You know who the king of that shit was? Tyson Chandler. Oh, my God. He would go missing for about two years. You ain't heard from him a while type of shit. That contract year, phew, Tobias Harris.
Starting point is 00:35:20 For sure. Golden, except last year. Sure. His grandfather didn't know. It don't matter what he do. It's 25 years. Me. No no i believe that hardly even like role players like motherfuckers even like fred van fleet boy master that i said oh fred reading that paper put me on you know i mean we're talking about hoop all the time but sheryl we're like all right bro that shit niggas about to get a bag bro so look at kcp bro anytime it's cut at kcp go super
Starting point is 00:35:51 saying bro you look at your effective field goal percentage you look at how your usage rate compared to other people that got 20 million a year or whatever and you try to measure up to them when they go to them analytics and that shit match up well yeah he's worth 20 million it's like yeah so what since we educating people on that like what's the is it something that's more important than the next or what if you off by do you know i mean you off a certain percentage no i mean field goal percentage three point percentage defensive rating and all that stuff play a part when you're doing analytics right
Starting point is 00:36:25 if you're offensively killing but a nigga giving you 30 a night ah yeah so that's gonna fuck up with y'all let's go yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:36:32 but like your win shares now they look at your defensive win shares and shit like that but if you like a KCP and you look at his defense percentage
Starting point is 00:36:37 and his like field goal percentage and where he take his shots from and he like he a high three point shooter most of his shots are three pointpoint shooters. But he's a really good
Starting point is 00:36:46 on-the-ball defender. He got good defensive ratings. Got you. So it's like, oh, he's going to affect the game this way on defensively and then he's going to do
Starting point is 00:36:53 what we need. We need three-point shooting. Okay. Then it compares to somebody else that did that maybe a year before or in that current situation.
Starting point is 00:37:02 And they'd be like, yeah, he's worth 25 million. Next thing you know, you're getting $25 million. I did not know that because if I did, I would have played defense so different. That's why I wanted to ask you about that, if it played like a part. You got steals, too.
Starting point is 00:37:15 That's the funny part about it. Yeah, I just didn't. I used to get scored on a high rate. That's what I'm saying. But if I didn't know that, I would have closed down a little differently you got to be smart like kairi and luca yeah now i get it luca switch i'll get it now it makes sense for sure now i always wanted to know me and bro talk about it but
Starting point is 00:37:38 i didn't know how that played a part like if i'm averaging 20 this year but a nigga cooking me how many millions is that deducted i mean it's it's all about it's also about the team who you love and like what the team feel about you and stuff that play a role too it ain't like you just gonna get paid because you average these numbers this guy's off the bench to average 16 but it might not be an effective 16 he might be like oh he shoot 17 shots a game or whatever that's true so he'd be like like a kelly uber you'll see his stats i remember one year he averaged like 20 for like charlotte or somebody and he went into free agency and nobody signed him and everybody like damn he averaged 20
Starting point is 00:38:16 though it's like in your head you'd be like i averaged 20 it's like yeah when we do the numbers this is a losing team this is how it looked it don't matter and it's crazy bro because they're there put that shit like you're going shopping on amazon bro they put everything in filters and see which statistics fit for their team then from that latter they go through and see okay these are the people we have this criteria all right what's this chemistry like what's his longevity like what's his age and they start going into the health and all that shit it's crazy analytics have really changed the way people go into free agency and shit all right now i get it then so that makes sense why, okay, see, why Houston paid James Harden like they did.
Starting point is 00:38:49 Because based off his, like. Analytics. It was. Like for that team? Yeah. He generated so much. See who you playing with. So if we put you by yourself, it'll.
Starting point is 00:38:57 And the plus minus was crazy too, because like he was coming off the bench, quote unquote. So like his impact with that was so crazy. But I remember Gil had an episode with Lil Will, and it was just going off the stats and times and stuff like that and like it was like if lou will was a starter with the same stats with a little increased minutes he'd have been a max like he had max deal production but that was getting them on like a bench role player type salary which is crazy so like you said that how they place you in those situations with them analytics could change how much you get paid drastically.
Starting point is 00:39:25 And sometimes they play like Lil Will. Obviously, he should have got played way more than whatever he was getting paid. But it also affects like, all right, he's a two guard or whatever. Can he guard this? That's why Drew Holiday is so effective when you get paid because he can feel like he can play multiple positions. And you'd be like, damn. Like Derek White, they can guard multiple positions. That's why they get paid as a defender and a guy that can score.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Like now, if you're just a cold-blooded scorer, you don't get appreciated the same way. A two-way player is going to get paid way more than that. Hell yeah. Because I always looked at another always keep a job like Tobias Harris, Aaron Aflalo. Aaron Aflalo was the king of contract year getting buckets and keeping 15, 20 year and then fading off until it was time to get paid. Yeah, I fucked with AA.
Starting point is 00:40:13 I wonder whatever happened to him. I mean, shit, bro. He played in the league probably 13, 14 years. I just didn't. I know he was on his way out when he swung on belly. We had a game, bro. He just fired off on belly for no reason bro barely put him in a headlock damn ain't that who you got into it i ain't got just
Starting point is 00:40:33 slapped i love belly too that's my dog wait first we got races bro we fuck with you bro i don't know why they're gonna follow fired on, swung on him, missed. Belly, belly like what? And put him in a headlock. We all know. He just put him on the headlock.
Starting point is 00:40:54 That's crazy. I ain't gonna lie, belly crazy, bro. Bro, he crazy. I don't know. Man. Yeah, there it go right there. He just fired on him.
Starting point is 00:41:02 He swung on him, belly had him in a headlock. Yeah, I gotta clip that there. He just fired on me. He swung on me. Belly had him in the headlock. Yeah, I got to clip that up. That's crazy. Shout out there to the follow-up, man. Yeah, man. Give us a little bail. Give us a little bail.

Starting point is 00:46:23 d rose he was just like i ain't trying to brag, but he was like, man, I got my first GW in the league against one of my favorite players ever. And somebody tagged it. It was like, Jeff Teague has been a part of everything that's ever happened in the NBA. I was on the floor when he hit his game with it? Yep. You weren't guarding him, though. Wow, shout out to Dennis Smith Jr.,
Starting point is 00:46:40 man. I don't remember it, but I'm sure we'll get to see it here soon. That's hard. That's crazy. But shout out to all the young boys getting paid. K just got his extension. Franz Wagner got a bag.
Starting point is 00:46:54 Obviously, he one of them people. Knew that was coming, though. Yeah, for sure. For sure. I can't wait to see what PB get. He going to probably get that. That's the same thing with brothers. There you go.
Starting point is 00:47:05 If Mo Wagner is good and then you see his brother, it's a little different. Damn sure. Respectfully. Oh, for sure. I've never really seen two brothers and they both was like cold. The same? Yeah. Because you look at Brooke and Rob and it's definitely different. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Steph and Seth is like It's a difference. You know, anybody else who like brothers was like it's like. It's a difference. Yeah. It's definitely a difference. You know, anybody else who like brothers was like. Clay and Michael. They're a little different too. Drew and his brothers. For sure.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Oh, yeah. Definitely. I think the closest that'll be together is probably the Thompson twins. They got. Nah, one of them different though. One of them is a pure goon on defense. But I'm saying how they looked at, I think in the league, it'll them different, though. One of them is a pure goon on defense. But I'm saying how they looked at it, I think in the league, it would probably be the same.
Starting point is 00:47:49 It would be the same. They both going to be $100 million players, bro. You think so? One of them ain't going to play that much. The one in Houston? Yeah, he got a tough situation. He in a tough situation. If he leave, because he got an offensive bag, bro.
Starting point is 00:48:00 But that boy, that's with him, Kim. He like that. Yeah. Cam Whitmore. He liked that. I was so pissed when the Pacers passed on him. I fuck with Jarius, but I was just like, man, we could've got Cam. He liked that. He different. He wanted people to, the Lakers
Starting point is 00:48:17 shitty that they passed on. They did not play the draft pick last year at all, and Cam would've gotten in the team for sure. Yeah, he nice, bro. Yeah, you're going to have me thinking about that. Them, the twins, too. The Morris twins, they probably close
Starting point is 00:48:29 in comparison, too. Yeah, but Marcus... I don't know because I remember Keith was the best one at first and then Marcus came, got better. That's the closer
