We roll three times a week on Mondays, on Wednesdays, on Fridays, breaking down everything you need to know about the NFL. We're gearing up for the NFL playoffs. I hope you can join us.
Starting point is 00:01:57 Join in with us three times a week. Listen to Football Today on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts and you will be glad you did. Good morning. Happy Wednesdays, 520 in the morning. Your favorite sports show here to keep you up today and everything in the sports world related, especially basketball. I'm your host. I'm Michael Jordan, son to my left. I got my brother Bishop Henderson. To my right, I got my brother Tee. Fellas, good morning.
Starting point is 00:02:28 How y'all doing? What's happening, bro? You on your own. Yeah. Free little cuss though. Oh, he out now. Nevermind, he out. Ain't nothing but a little coke.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Yeah, man, ain't nothing but a little. Hey man, that interview, we'll talk about that for the podcast, man. But hey, them putting the Ben Mark and Jordan T-shirts out for the ones, they gotta do it, bro. Trophy room, make it happen for sure. Stay off the tracks. Stay off the tracks for sure, man.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Listen, before we get into the yesterday scores, man, it's about that time, man. Trade dead line goes officially off tomorrow, so we got a lot of people scrambling to the end. First off, let's just see how y'all feel about some stuff, man. It's looking like Brad Bill might stay put. Y'all think he's gonna be a son after tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:03:07 Yeah. Okay. Yes, I hope so. Nobody getting traded no more, it's over. You don't think so? Nah, it's like, it's too much. Like Brad Bill threw everything off. Hmm, interesting.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Now, there's been a lot of rumors that the Sunset Shopping K.D. if they can't get Jimmy Butler, which starting there I think is already a weird statement to say. But if K.D. happens to go somewhere, what team do you think you might see him going back to?
Starting point is 00:03:32 You think it's Golden State? Rockets or Golden State? I could see those, but I don't think it'll get done in time. Yeah, that's too big of a move to make. Like I think a lot of shit we might see today be like, I ain't gonna say really Lord, no disrespect, but. Role players are thinking. Role players and money and shit like that.
Starting point is 00:03:58 But then my man might be a blockbuster, you know the NBA? I don't think so. Might put a little razzle dazzle at 11.59. Yeah. What's wrong? I was right. I've been talking. Oh, y'all come on.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Don't do that today. We good? Okay. Oh, okay. Wake up camera, Sidney. Out there with Marcus Jordan. They always messing up some shit. So I gotta call people out early in the morning.
Starting point is 00:04:29 But what I was saying with some of the teams, they was like with the KD, that's a possibility, but I don't get that. So if you get Jimmy Butler, you're cool, but if you don't get Jimmy Butler, you trade KD. I understand that Lucas Tray is already taking the edge off anybody doing some wild shit, so no way you gonna get penalized if they tweak out.
Starting point is 00:04:44 But that's kind of weird though. Like, why is that the domino effect? I don't know, man. I just- It's the money. Yeah. It's like, we get Jimmy, we got a chance to win. If we don't get Jimmy, obviously we ain't winning shit.
Starting point is 00:04:57 So, let's get off this money. Yeah. And we have to pay KDA extension. So, we already over the tax by crazy. Let's just get under the tax, bro. So they might trade him for some young guys. Hmm. I can see that happening for sure. Now I laugh because some apps, it was like in a dream scenario,
Starting point is 00:05:15 they would get Kevin Durant as well. And in everybody's dream scenario, they will fucking get Kevin Durant. I don't know what type of report that means, but everybody wants Kevin Durant, bro. That doesn't mean you could get him. I didn't make the trade yesterday. that means, but everybody wants Kevin Durant, bro. That doesn't mean y'all can get him. Now I did make a trade yesterday. They traded Quentin Grimes. They got Twin up there on the field. How y'all feel about that situation?
Starting point is 00:05:31 Just same type shit. Yeah, low tier shit. What about the KOOs though? KOOs are supposed to be getting traded. No, but yeah, the Kyle KOOs move for Chris Milton trade kinda scratches my head with that situation, Tig. How you feel about that? Chris Milton got like two years left on his deal.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Just getting off the money. Okay. That's how it is. Cause I'm like, I don't see that as being, I mean, shout out to Kyle Kuzma, but for what that team means, I don't know if he's gonna contribute as much as he could, but if it's about the money then, so be it.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Yeah, it's just getting off the money. That's how there really is. That ain't a bad piece to pick up for it. And I think Kool's gonna be a free agent. Mm-hmm. Yeah. That ain't a bad piece to grab just for rent. They like, shit, we can see if you give us something,
Starting point is 00:06:15 we're renting. Yeah. So then. We got that money. So that's interesting. So if you're the Bucks, do you wait till the off season to make another move in that situation? All right, we'll rock out with Kyle,
Starting point is 00:06:23 but now we got free money to add with our two franchise players. You don't got no choice. That's what they gotta do. Cause they need another star to keep Yannis happy. Obviously you see Yannis saying shit that like, he wants to see everybody in a big market and all this shit.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yeah, that was it. That's kind of scaring people a little bit. So now that Milwaukee know like we gotta get off that money and free up some more space so we can get another player. We got to keep Janice happy. Hey, shout out to Janice always testing a gangster. Anytime he ain't happy about he getting a prayer.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Yo, yo, once you're by thrive and I got what I want, then we'll figure it out. Because when he said, yeah, I want to see yogurt in New York. Everybody's like, damn, this is where you want to be. Where you all want to go, bro? Because last time I did it. Yeah, I went got me down. The next time I do some bullshit, I don't like it. I this is where you wanna be. Where you all wanna go, bruh. Because last time I did that, yeah, y'all wouldn't got me dying. The next time y'all do some bullshit I don't like, yeah, I will not be a buck anymore.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I don't even know where he can go, that's a big market. Bro, if he goes to Golden State, we spent like a few years, but. Golden State a big market. Who else? New York, Golden State, Chicago. Them like the biggest markets.
Starting point is 00:07:27 Chicago, Miami would be lit. Miami ain't a big market, but he can make it lit though. But New York, Chicago, LA. Damn. Gold state would be insane though. Stefan and Yannis would be crazy. Chicago, he had to do a lot of work. I'm sleeping on him going.
Starting point is 00:07:46 I ain't saying that, I'm just saying the big markets. Question from the chat early on, it says, does Luca add any more pressure to JJ in the future and right now him and LeBron together? Nah, I mean. He actually took pressure off of him. Yeah, he saving his job, bro. He actually took pressure off of him. Yeah, he saving his job, bro. He just got a Hall of Famer.
Starting point is 00:08:09 He ain't got a really coach. And he got LeBron who really kind of the head coach. Nah, it ain't even that. Everybody knows the adjustment period now because you had them fifth in the West with AD. So everybody like you got the two best. You had a dynamic duo with LeBron and AD. Now you get a chance to really chill
Starting point is 00:08:26 because nobody expect much from Luca and LeBron. They gotta figure it out. They need that time to figure it out, how to play with each other and all that shit. So if y'all go on a losing streak or whatever it is, all the pressure is off. They just switched the whole team. Yeah, the basketball guys looked out for JJ, if anything.
Starting point is 00:08:44 They have no pressure now, it's all green. You're halfway through your first year in the season You're part of one of the biggest trades in NBA history. It ain't on you regardless. What happens in situation? No, it's all green But it definitely hurt to get Luka Donch is in that situation We'll talk about the Lakers game later, but you think LeBron might stick around? Yeah, he said he ain't going nowhere I know he ain't gonna trailer but you think after the season, you think he gonna lock in? Yeah, he said he was locked in with the Lakers. That's hard, though. Maybe he got something up his sleeve, too, though.
Starting point is 00:09:12 He probably, Genie Bussing them probably telling him he could probably get a little piece of that ownership when he done. I'm locked in, then. Oh, yeah, we all here then. I'm pretty sure they said some shit like that. It's a back end deal in that situation? Somewhere, because I ain't never heard
Starting point is 00:09:27 Bron say he was locked in. Well, we know what happens when Bron starts saying stuff like that, we start posting niggas on Instagram, they typically leave, so we gotta take that with a grain of salt. Damn, he done posted a nigga killin'? Nah, you know what happens though, anytime, real killer, yeah, he's on a real different team next time.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Yeah, get a Ruey highlight tape going. Well shoot, after they played yesterday, He's on a real different team next time. Yeah, get a Ruey highlight tape going. Well, shoot, after they played yesterday, I don't know. I don't know if it's open tryouts, no more Lakers, man, for sure. But we'll get to it, man, a lot of rumors going on. We'll see who moves around. One of the greater games of yesterday, the Celtics and the Cavs headed off yesterday, 112 to 105.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Man, I thought it was gonna be a belt to ass situation, but the Cavs kept fighting for sure. Really, really good game yesterday. JT had 22, seven and four. JB only had 16 to nine. Porzingis had 19 as well. Now, I mean, Mitchell was hooping yesterday. He had 31 and 10.
Starting point is 00:10:14 Medeiros Golan had 25. He killed in the second half as well. The Cavs on one and two against the Celtics. I don't really hold that much to it because when the Celtics play like they played yesterday, they didn't even play their best and they still a lot to deal with, man. They still the defending champs.
Starting point is 00:10:26 It was a bad game at first, but they couldn't score. Nobody could score. Jalen Brown had to put the team on his back in the first quarter. He had all the points. Yup. It was just a slow game. It started to pick up in the second half or whatever. Like you said, the Cavs made a run, cut the lead, made it an exciting game. But when I look at the Cavs, man, I like them.
Starting point is 00:10:47 But like, they fifth player, sixth player. Ain't giving them nothing. Nah, they just not comparable to the Celtics. Like, they fifth and sixth player are down there Hall of Famers. True. Like, it's just not fair. Like, you got, I love Sam Murrow.
Starting point is 00:11:02 I played with him in Milwaukee, but Sam Murrow is like getting hella minutes. Like Ty Jerome is subbin' in, solid NBA player, but these are they key guys. And this is Drew Holiday. You know what I mean? That's true, bro. This is taking pretty much average of 16, 15.
Starting point is 00:11:23 That's why I said in a playoff series, bro. I don't see that even making sense, bro. I love George Ne'ang, but you subbing in without Horford. Quiet. Yeah, that's different. It's just a different level. And like,
Starting point is 00:11:40 they two stars gotta be crazy. Like, every, like, Donovan Mitchell had to get crazy for them to be in that game. They're just darling. They had to, Steph and KD the whole way through. Yeah, they were hooping. And I ain't gonna lie, Evan Moby did not play well at all. 3-4-14, yeah, that's, that's what I said.
Starting point is 00:11:57 But he don't have nights like that because that team is more versatile. Like, even though he like a matchup nightmare for most teams, he's not for the Celtics because JT six nine. Hella buys a throw at him. Porzingis seven one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:14 Like, and Jared Allen is a force down low, but he don't do nothing on the perimeter. So he plays into the Celtics hand a little bit. Like you gonna let Porzingis just stay down there and block shots? All right. All right. Yeah, shit.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Jared does not stress the floor at all. Yeah, so you gonna let Al Harper know sitting in the paint what they do, what they do well is protect the rim with Porzingis, definitely. So. And that's if you get there, cause you got Derrick White on one side and Drew on the other.
Starting point is 00:12:42 And then JT can guard Evan Mobey. Yeah. It ain't a mismatch. So, just a bad matchup for them, I think. I wanna ask y'all this, obviously the Celtics is a bad matchup for them and everybody. To get out the East, you think that the Cavs could beat the Bucks in the series, and do you think the Cavs could beat the Knicks
Starting point is 00:12:56 in the series, either one of those teams? The Cavs can beat the Bucks. I don't know about the Knicks. They match up better with the Bucks. Like the Bucks wings, no offense. The wing matchup ain't really talking about nothing over there. You got Yannis, you got Dane.
Starting point is 00:13:20 The wings is. You're not really fearing. Nah, and that's the- TP and Andre Jackson. Yeah, the matchup problem for the Cavs is the wings when it comes to the Celtics. They wings are kind of iffy. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:13:36 I think they'll beat the Bucks. Yeah, they could beat the Bucks. I don't think they could beat the Knicks. Now the Knicks, I don't know, bro. That's the wings, there we go. They got all the Knicks. Now the Knicks, I don't know, bro. That's the wings. There we go. They got all the wings. It might get a little spooky.
Starting point is 00:13:50 And Jalen Brunson is in, shout out to Derrius Garland, all star, but that's tough on that island. I mean, they kind of, I don't say balance each other out, but I just feel like Derrius Garland had to play way harder than Jalen Brunson. He has to score.
Starting point is 00:14:06 And like in that game last night, they're like the JB screen, even though he didn't play that well, they picking on him on them screens and switching roles. He has to have 20, 25 every game because his scoring, because he ain't gonna stop none of them. He got JB like that, it's gonna get ugly, bro. The thing is, Jalen Brunson can hide on defense.
Starting point is 00:14:25 He can guard Max Struce. The thing is, Jalen Brunson can hide on defense. He can guard Max Struess. And now you got Michael Bridges or OG or Josh Hart guarding Darius Garland, right? You're going to a pick and roll, they got big wings. If you're going to pick and roll with Kat, Kat get to sit back, cause Jared Allen and them dudes, he can be up and drop back, cause Jared Allen's no 3.3, so he don't gotta switch.
Starting point is 00:14:44 You know, usually with Port Zingas and them, he got to switch, he don't got to switch with the Cats. They not know 3.3. So he get to drop back and coverage and they fight over the screen. Make Darius Garland playing that in-between game. Make Donald Mitchell playing that in-between game. It's a better matchup.

Now, I don't know if you have the update, but like all the little thumbs up and heart and stuff, like it's all colored. They changed it. And the heart's a little pink. It felt like I told't know if you have the update, but like all the little thumbs up and heart and stuff, like it's all colored. They changed it.
Starting point is 00:16:46 And the heart's a little pink. It felt like I told you I loved you. I'm gonna be honest, it was a little pink. There was something sentimental when you sent it. You're like, do I send the heart now? I don't like the color edition. It's extremely pink. Listen to lots to say with Bobby Bones and Matt Castle
Starting point is 00:17:02 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's Julie Stewart Banks. I'm doing a new podcast from iHeart Podcasts and the National Hockey League, and I'm paired up with one of my favorite players, the always quotable Nate Thompson. I wore nine NHL sweaters, and I have story after story to share, and believe it or not, I have plenty to say, and not just about hockey. Believe me he does. Energy Line with Nate and JSB is the name of the podcast and it's gonna be well it's gonna be quite the ride. We're officially line mates Nate. We're the Energy Line. We'll have plenty of folks join us, current players,
Starting point is 00:17:38 some of my former teammates, Hall of Famers and wait to see some of the connections that Julie has. She has quite the Rolodex. Okay, we'll lean into Nate's playing experience and tap into our interests away from hockey and try to do what Energy Lines are supposed to do, provide an emotional boost. How do you feel about all that, Nate? I'm vibing, Julie. I'm ready to roll. Listen to Energy Line with Nate and JSB on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What's going on everybody?
Starting point is 00:18:08 This is Justin Penick from John Boy Media, the host of the Football Today podcast alongside Bobby Skinner and Chris Rose. We're rolling three times a week on Mondays, on Wednesdays, on Fridays, breaking down everything you need to know about the NFL. We're talking about the MVP race. Is Josh Allen going to pull it out? Lamar Jackson? Can Saquon Barkley even break the rushing record?
Starting point is 00:18:32 Can the Steelers keep up their momentum? We talk about everything. We break it down. Stats, analytics, and of course Chris Rose is bringing his perspective on being a pro in the media world as well. Listen to football today on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts and you will be glad you did. Hope you could join us for the postseason run. It was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised
Starting point is 00:19:00 and my bullishness and arrogance to want to be great hardened me. It gave me a platform to be so singularly focused on greatness. We all have moments like this. Something happens that's supposed to break us. But it's in these moments that we discover what we're really made of. I promise you, if anyone knows this, it's me.
Starting point is 00:19:22 I'm Ashlyn Harris, two-time Women's World Cup champion and goalkeeper for the US Women's National Team. In my new podcast, Wide Open, I'll sit down with trailblazers from sports, music, fashion, entertainment and politics to explore their toughest moments and the incredible comebacks that followed. Listen to Wide Open with Ashlyn Harris, an iHeart Women's Sports production on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
Starting point is 00:19:51 or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports. And like you said with Kat on the other side of that, Jared Allen, but you're not going to be existing in paint because you have to guard Kat. You got us to guard cat way out there. So now you got JP.
Starting point is 00:20:07 The only thing that helps them is that Josh Hart, he can make a shot, but he not a knockdown shooter. So you could put Jared Allen on him and you can do what I did to Buddy and kind of like play that cat mouse game with Josh Hart. Like, let's see if he can make it. See, but what you did though, Josh Hart ain't, let's see if you can make it. That's a good count. But what you did though, Josh Hart ain't going that long.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Paul. Josh Hart, yeah, I mean, cause they all know what we talking about, so that's definitely Paul's. But, yeah, that's wild as fuck, actually. But I think Josh Hart'll catch on, and then start to- Yeah, he'll attack, but I'm just saying,
Starting point is 00:20:41 that's something you could do. I guess I did see him hooping the play out. I also saw some little Josh Hart, like he a jet, like, his jump shot ain't falling, he'll make a way, man. He guess I did see him hoopin' the play. I also saw some little drops hard. Like, he a jump shot, he a fall and he'll make a way. Man, he somehow gets to the basket, so for sure. I see them lookin' at D Hunt, the Cavs. I think that's a person they definitely need. Now we talkin'.
Starting point is 00:20:55 I know we ain't givin' them up though, but now we talkin'. Who the fuck for? I mean, shit, we can figure it out. Hicks? Hell nah. Ain't nobody to treat him like, oh boy, they got traded for the soaker. No way.
Starting point is 00:21:09 I ain't saying no second round picks, but I'm saying like, you probably have to have a first round pick in there. Who is Shafino? Yeah. I wonder if he got some tic. He too valuable, bro. I agree.
Starting point is 00:21:19 He not too valuable, bro. But from what we just saw yesterday again, like the Cavs need another scoring wing to help the Diamond Mitchell play like Superman. He was fucking killing and it still wasn't enough. Like to compete in the East, they gonna have to get somebody else who can score in the wing position. But good win for sure for the Celtics.
Starting point is 00:21:35 And B came back, man, he ain't hoop in a while, but he definitely play like, you know what I'm saying? He's supposed to, AVP caliber type player. 29, 11 and 10 trippy dub. Tyrese Maxey had 33 at 13, man. Got the Mavs, 11 29, 11 and 10, trippy dub. Kyrie's maxi had 33 at 13, man. Got the Mavs, 118, 116. Let me see what he said. He said, why you play?
Starting point is 00:21:51 I ain't wanna get trashed. That nigga clouded. Baby, clouded. He out of pocket, man. The Mavs, new looking Mavs. Kyrie had 34, nine and four yesterday. Max Chrissy looked good yesterday for that team, man. He probably like, damn, I get to shoot the ball or shit?
Starting point is 00:22:06 Ah man, so much freshman, I'm playing with LeBron. Just keeping it real. If he go over there and really kill that, it'd be crazy. He probably is. Bro, he's good to play free, bro. He gonna do everything he's supposed to do. Had 15 yesterday, shoot at a high percentage, he don't really take a lot of dumb shots,
Starting point is 00:22:21 and he got a burner. He fit perfect with that team need, especially when AD start playing, the in and out bro. I don't want him to do well. I'm not saying nothing. I'm not even saying he's sad or nothing. I'm just saying if he go over here and really kill,
Starting point is 00:22:31 I know the legs gonna bug. What the fuck? That's what happens when everybody leaves and start hooping. What the fuck going on? You gotta think when you 20, what are you like 19, 20, 21, and you go to a team with LeBron,
Starting point is 00:22:42 bro you grew up, this the only person, like you probably his favorite player bro. Yeah. He probably out looked at LeBron, bro, you grew up, this the only person, like you probably his favorite player, bro. Yeah. He probably, I looked at LeBron, probably spoke to him, like LeBron probably talked to him like, hey Max, get this shit. He probably scared as hell.
Starting point is 00:22:53 Probably scared of making a mistake, all type of shit. I hate to play that shit. Oh yeah, looking at him. Yeah. Yeah bro. That nigga look like Eric Bonaid. I walk right past him. Christie, I forgot what he look like. look like Eric Bonaid. I walk right past him. Christie, I forgot what he look like.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Never go Eric Bonaid. But no, man. You fry for that. How you feel about Kyrie being able to lead the team? I know there's been a lot of knocking on his leadership capabilities, but this new look situation, he's going to be the person they look to to know what I'm saying, get him through.
Starting point is 00:23:22 You think Kyrie capable? I think he's been a better leader as of late. I mean, his move to the Mavs been great. His energy, everything he's been doing has been great. Everybody's been raving about the person he is and the teammate he's been since he's been there. But I think he has helped now with AD. Yes, sir. Also, people question his leadership abilities,
Starting point is 00:23:41 but they both get a chance to step up and try to make something happen. I think that's a crazy dynamic duo. Man, it's going to be a really good thing to see. I don't know, Dan Capra got a little hurt back there, but when Lively get back, man, that's a hell of a lineup you got to deal with. And I think they still are active as well. I think they're trying to add something else to their team.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I don't know what else they need. I mean, they say KD, but I don't know who they trade. I mean, you got to give up Lively. For Damn the Rat? You got to give up Lively. For Damien Ratt. You gotta give up Lively. You gotta give up Damien Ratt, all these picks and. Okay. When?
Starting point is 00:24:12 Y'all need me to go get it? Lively, who else though? I'm trying to think who else. Yeah, I'm about to say something. You can have Lively, you can have my right kidney. We gotta give up. Who else they got? PJ, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:24 PJ, PJ gotta go, Lively gotta go. And that's cool. Gotta give up. Who else they got? PJ, yeah. PJ, yeah, PJ gotta go. Lively gotta go. And that's cool. Mm-mm, gotta give up something else. Damn, Jazz! PJ Lively on a Ricky deal. PJ Lively. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:24:37 You do gotta make the money match. Yeah, you gotta give up something else. Somebody else gotta, I don't care who though. The young boy, Nigel Marshall gotta go. And that young boy. Now listen, y'all say y'all need salary back here. I'm not taking up though. Get out. The young boy, Nigel Marshall gotta go. And that young boy. Now listen, y'all say y'all need salary back here. I'm not taking about young talent now. Hardee gotta go too.
Starting point is 00:24:49 Y'all thirsty too. Hardee, what? Got to. Max Christie might be on the move again. Max Christie, Lively. I'm a cool bro. We didn't even take your name on the dress yet. Max Christie, Lively, Hardee, and Nigel Marshall.
Starting point is 00:25:02 That's fine, I have. Oh, number one, I'll take that back. Clay. Come on. Jeff, you cannot trade six people from the mass for KD. I know that he's worthy of that, but you can't, they don't even approve of those two, K. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:25:13 Look. Somebody else has to go back in that trade. Clay, it is, there's probably some sad people on the sun. I shouldn't say sad, but like some young boys on the sun. Less desired. It's gonna be Clay, Max Christie. Now we gotta keep playing. Najee Marshall, and Lively.
Starting point is 00:25:27 That's cool. I still got Kyrie Irvin, Anthony Davis and Kevin Durant. That's it. And Clay Thompson. Probably won't work. Both have to win. Clay Thompson gone. The sad part about that is if one of them get injured it's over with.
Starting point is 00:25:40 Yeah, Clay Thompson not gonna be. It's just gotta work one year. They did it in Brooklyn already. Didn't work. Touche. Shout out to the Fat Super James Harden, man. Listen, we talked about the 76ers team at Full Strength. They can make some noise.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Y'all think if they go into the playoffs at decent to full health, they can upset somebody? No. You not seeing anybody in the narcotic? Yeah, they can beat. Sure, they can beat the Cavs. They can beat the Pacers? Yeah, I would beat the Ass. They can beat the Cavs. They can beat the Pacers? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Yeah, I would beat the ass. They can beat the Cavs. They have full strength, they can beat the Cavs. That's a tough matchup. As a first round matchup, that's tough. Are you saying like, I'm serious though, like can they really beat the Pacers? The Sixers?
Starting point is 00:26:19 Yeah, if they have full strength, they can sweep the Pacers. They don't even know, they ain't even know like shade. Like MB just. That's what it sound like. No, MB is that dominant bro. Like he can foul your whole team out. I mean, we don't have anybody gradual MB for sure.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Yeah, and I ain't even trying to be funny. I'm being dead ass serious. That's the same thing. It's the same thing. It's the same thing with the Cavs bro. They don't got no back in gradual MB. That's a tough, tough deal. Yeah, and Tyrese Maxie, PG, full strength.
Starting point is 00:26:49 That's a fucking team over there now. We gotta quit playing like they ain't got no killers over there. Yeah, I'm not buying a fool's girl right now. Niggas need sensual beans. Joy being playing basketball in the month. I'm not talking about they posting. You see, he ain't playing basketball in the month,
Starting point is 00:27:04 they got a triple-double first-hand. Yeah, nigga was charged up. I'm just saying, I'm just saying. I should tell you, he really playing around. Nah, Joe Albee is AVP candidate every year for a reason, man. Yeah, like that's what it's about. That full strip fess section scene should be good, but we've been waiting for it.
Starting point is 00:27:19 I mean, yeah, I don't think we ever gonna get it, but yeah, for sure, man. Lakers built a ass situation yesterday. They beat the shit out the Clippers, 122 to 97. Brown was who? Brown was killing yesterday. Lakers as a whole yesterday was hooping. That first quarter they couldn't miss, bro.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Yeah, fucks. Rui was on fire, everybody. Osseree's been killing, man. 29. Osseree, I told y'all he was nice at the point guard spot. Most definitely. I don't know why you typed it up there and said that Brownnie scored more points
Starting point is 00:27:45 than Tyrese Halliburton yesterday. That is a fact, unfortunately. How many Bronnie have? Three. Tyrese didn't score? No, shot the ball three times. Yeah, well, I don't even want to talk about that. Yeah, I told y'all Portland was gonna beat your ass.
Starting point is 00:27:59 Portland beat the shit out of us yesterday for sure. But this Lakers won yesterday, post-trade, is that a high, everybody happy, new roles, new opportunities? Make that, it's having fun, hoping. Yeah. Like you play so much free, you gotta think. Anthony Davis, obviously he made up so much for them on defense, you know, blocking shots,
Starting point is 00:28:17 switching and picking rows, all that shit he was doing. But offensively, you get to play free. Shit, when Bronco out, who got us? I get to shoot. Shit. Ain't nobody gonna go out I get to shoot Nobody's about catching the ball. Ain't nobody else here. I got a little win for them though. That was a good win Yeah, they they handled the Clippers yesterday. Um, so speaking of somebody else like the Matt Christie situation, um, dude dog connect Promising earlier and started getting DMPs not getting a minute now. He gets to play freely again. I mean, it's like a team They might could do something man. I'm interested to see
Starting point is 00:28:46 You ain't fucking with it. You don't think they can win a playoff round with Luke and the Coyote, I mean, Luke and LeBron? Quiet. They ain't got nothing? They can't get a first round win? At a five seed, four, five matchup, they cooked? Damn, let's go to the West to see who they would play if they stay where they was at.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Nuggets. Nuggets, no, they better hope the Nuggets, yeah. Nah, they definitely not beat them Nuggets. Could they beat the Clippers in the series? If it matched up like that? Yeah, they could beat the Clippers. Okay, how about the Rockets? No.
Starting point is 00:29:15 I mean, they might be able to. Yeah, but him and Luka, they just gonna get mismatches all game. They just gonna keep switching Van Fleet. Yeah. Pick your poison. Yeah, they could beat them. They can gonna keep switching van fleet. Yeah. Pick your poison. Yeah, they can beat them. They can't beat the Nuggets though.
Starting point is 00:29:29 I agree with you that there is no way they can beat the Nuggets. We saw Jackson Hayes last night. Is he the type of player they need? Like they're rolling big or do they still need to go get a big for this team? Nah, he a one leg jumper. You gotta have a two foot jumper for Luka.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Now you gotta be able to catch a lob off too. That's interesting. We understand what you're saying, but could you break that down for our consumers and men out there? So like a lot of people, like when you catch a lob, you gotta be able to have like vertical, you need a guy that can jump off vertical and catch lobs.
Starting point is 00:29:57 And I'm not saying Jackson Hayes can't, I mean obviously he's seven foot, he bought a rim, but he gets up higher when he gets a running start and jump off one leg. And with Luca, you gotta get in a pick and roll. You gonna roll to the basket, he gonna hold the ball for a little bit, and then he might just throw it up
Starting point is 00:30:12 and you gotta have a vertical leap to go get it. And you can't get a run and start a lot of times, it's just straight off vertical. That's why Lively and Gaffer were so good, because they both can jump off vertical and catch lives pretty well. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Like Capella. But that's why Jackson Hayes never been a crazy live threat.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Like if you seen his dunk last night, it was off the road. He caught it one leg. Jump. Yeah. And that's interesting you say that because I always wonder why. Because he's dumb athletic. It's always been there. But that type of a breakdown makes sense. Yeah, you would think he would be lively. You would think he would be gaffered.
Starting point is 00:30:44 And we never talked about him in that kind of light because that's the reason. That's interesting. Also, I want to know, do you think that the lane opened up more? No AD, if they go get it big and play that, and LeBron is basically your power forward. Does the lane open up a little bit more for Luca
Starting point is 00:30:57 to have that type of energy to throw them lobs? Boys are just- LeBron at the four? Yeah. N****s still gonna be helping. They still gonna be helping. I mean, Bron, obviously he's shooting the ball way better than years ago,
Starting point is 00:31:09 but I want Brown shooting threes instead of going to the basket. Yeah, that's a good. For sure. Well, time will tell, man. Unfortunately, Lucas' first game will be against the Pacers, and I don't look forward to it,
Starting point is 00:31:21 but I am definitely excited to see it happen, for sure. Couple more games took place last night. The Knicks took care of the Raptors yesterday. 121 to 115, Knicks on the eight game winning streak, man. Cat had 27 to 20, he definitely covered for you yesterday. Daly Brunson 28, five assists. Scotty Barnes had 23. Man, the Knicks just doing what they're supposed to do.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Man, like you said, live across the finish line if you got to, tell the team you deal with. He was right again about the Chicago Bulls, took care of the Heat yesterday, won 33 to 124. I told you Kobe White was gonna have a game. Man, Josh Giddy had 24, seven and five. Kobe White always hoopin', had 22. Your favorite white boy had 23, nine and eight.
Starting point is 00:31:57 Ben had 23 and eight yesterday. Bulls always win games, we countin' them out of, bro. I know, I'm telling y'all, bet with T. Got the parlay up. Nah, I don't do par, I don't bet, but I know we're gonna win. Okay, Moneyline T, I'm fucking with it. The Nets took care of the Rockets yesterday,
Starting point is 00:32:14 and listen, man, the end of that game was fucking ridiculous, man. I know we talk about Eddie Experiencing the NBA, but they completely smoked that game yesterday. Like, there's no way that they're supposed to lose that game. Shout out to D-Lo getting a game winner, got his pose off, got his shit off the way he was supposed to. But the Rockets really smoked that game yesterday.
Starting point is 00:32:33 I love D-Lo on losing teams. I come off the wrong way, but they do have. I just love to see him play free. Yeah, when you're on a losing team where like teams that kind of struggle play free. Yeah, when he on a losing team, where like teams are kind of struggling a little bit. I love to see a nigga on a losing team sound crazy though, when you look at it.
Starting point is 00:32:51 I love when that nigga losing. I do, he play better. Well, to be fair, they put the worst. Yeah, I feel like when he play on teams where he can play free and they just have playing open basketball, bro, he was fun to watch, actually. Like, I hated D-Low on the Lakers.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Like, I thought, I damn near started saying he was sad. Like, man, he damn near sad. Did that make you drink the Kool-Aid? Oh, you looking at shooting precision yesterday? Yeah, one of those was the game winner. That's what make you fire. Yeah. Shout out to D-Low.
Starting point is 00:33:19 He hit a couple, but he hit the one that counted. Him shooting 20% from the field and winning. I fuck with that. That's what I'm saying, I love that. Game winner with 10, turn me up. He shocked that man. That confidence at a different level. That's what you are.
Starting point is 00:33:29 I ain't even think, it didn't even cross my mind that I missed this many shots. Now that's a coach's dream for a player that's still in the locker room. He fucked around and air-balled that bitch in LA. He would have been so nervous thinking about it, he gotta pass it to Brown or somebody. He fucked around and air-balled it.
Starting point is 00:33:41 And I'm looking at who played last night, respect to the squad, but who else is supposed to get a shot? I wish somebody would yell at me for taking the shot.

He be trying to tap in, he can't tap in. I don't care. I'm gonna, I don't care. Like it's so funny, one time somebody see me at PL, you know, she be dressed up and shit. And I had a like, probably a 520 swimsuit. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Somebody was like, damn, he did not meet the requirements. I'm like, fuck yeah, I don't care. I mean you gonna wear a swimsuit, but I mean summertime it's probably. I can't tell y'all last time I wore some jeans. Yeah, but you not out of style by no means, bro. You be chilling, bro, but you ain't never, niggas ain't never chill out what you wear. You keep killing me trying to tap into new people, no.
Starting point is 00:48:59 I'm trying to get to that level, bro. You are not skiffler, bro. Stop. I'm trying to get to that level, but I don't care. We gotta get you some spirits in there. Let's tap in for sure. Nah, I don't think, I don't think. I'll never go there.
Starting point is 00:49:09 Nah, I ain't gonna never go there. You can't even start with the docs on. But I'm trying to get to that level, I don't care that much. Oh, you there. Yeah, for sure, man. Be here, people trying to win some money. What you got for them, man?
Starting point is 00:49:20 Man, just talking to this nigga, lying to this shit, I don't know. Nah. I'm talking to this nigga lying to his y'all though. De'Aaron Fox, 25 tonight. Wimby, three blocks. Kay Cunningham, 25. Mous Bridges, 20. Tyler Hero, 25.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Zion Williamson, 20. Luka Donsik's, eight assists tonight. Oh, he might be playing tonight. Yeah, he's on the ticket. So 250. Okay, who they playing? They play the Lakers. I mean, the Mavericks tonight, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Ah, he ain't playing. He playing, bro. I just said his first game would be the Pikes. Yeah, they said his first game, but you know, just keep it on the ticket, okay? He might have to show you that one. But just in case he doesn't play. They avoid it, but 250 wins you 7,000 today.
Starting point is 00:50:03 Something slight, 250 for seven bands. Yeah. I like that. All right, before we get out of here, let's see what Dennis Schroeder said. Yeah, getting traded like slavery. Yeah. I just wanted to like speak on that. I don't think we should go that route with it.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Cause I know some people, some random people, a couple of people said slavery was a choice, but it really wasn't a choice. This is way different. Yeah, I like Ye, but. Yeah, like that's wild. Ye was wrong. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:35 Told y'all, y'all gave that nigga didn't shoot her hair piece. He just out here talking now. But nah, I get what he trying to say. It's like the slave trade. You can go anywhere, they can see you, or they can do whatever they want. I get what he trying to say, but like that trade. You can go anywhere, they can send you where they want. They can do whatever they want. I get what he trying to say,
Starting point is 00:50:45 but like that's a bad comparison, especially in February. And respect to Dennis, you probably should probably say that for somebody who grew up in America to probably say some stuff like that. I know you're probably aware of that type of stuff, but that's what's a hell of a- He don't know nothing about, no, he don't. Yeah, that's a hell of a vantage point to you,
Starting point is 00:51:01 since you're such a- Niggas ain't even aware, shut the fuck up, nigga. You're not allowed to speak on that. Yeah. Talk about some shit, some slavery, nigga. Shut up. I mean, he African too, bruh. He what? He African.
Starting point is 00:51:10 I mean, he a German. Nah, he African. He's African. Y'all just, it's not Greek. It's Greek, and he is African. Dennis is definitely African. Yeah, Dennis has probably one of the best. And then you know what the crazy part about that is?
Starting point is 00:51:21 A report came out, Dennis Hunter is officially a betrayer. I'm just saying. Come on, man. A report came out, dentist's order is officially up for trade. I'm just saying. Come on man, that nigga done named Axel bro. No African name Axel. He's definitely African. You can look at him and see. Respect the legions for sure.
Starting point is 00:51:38 Before the rebrand. That nigga look at him bro, he black ass like, ain't no damn shoulder. His first haircut in ATL, where that at? Nah, but I ain't go like, I'm just saying. He's German. No bro. Stop bro. That nigga is African.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Look at him nigga. I ain't seen a German ever look like that. That's an African nigga. Yeah bro. It's a different bro. Go ahead T. He African, but I was just saying like, I get what he's saying with the slave trade and stuff,
Starting point is 00:52:05 but we gotta use a different analogy, bro. Like, cause you, like you said, you getting paid a lot of money, they wasn't getting paid shit, bro. Yeah, I know. You ain't getting beat, you ain't getting whooped if you don't do something. That's why I don't sleep on that, bro.
Starting point is 00:52:16 That's a shitty comparison. Yeah, like you not going through any real struggles, bro. This is all luxury, everything about this is up. Even if you get traded, you getting traded to a city and it's beautiful. Y'all have a pocket bro. Jeff talking about this nigga they got this nigga smiling. I'm just saying everywhere you go is luxury bro. You get traded even if you get traded your family get traded y'all still
Starting point is 00:52:40 moving to a city and y'all gonna go live in a nice luxury place you can't pay millions and millions of dollars do something you love I get it is inconvenient sometimes that you got to move your city I mean still moving to a city and y'all can go live in a nice luxury place. You can't pay millions and millions of dollars to do something you love. I get it as inconvenient sometimes that you gotta move your city, tell me your family's to a different city, but shit, this is lovely. I do that shit any day.

Starting point is 00:53:43 I had some people text me that earlier, like, damn, bro, slave trade. I'm like, I get what he was trying to say, but it is, yeah, you're wrong. That's a little sensitive.
