keep you up to date and everything in sports world related, especially basketball. Shout out to Gatorade. I'm joined this morning by my two brothers, Bishop Hinnis and my brother Tee. Fells, how y'all doing this morning? See, y'all always talking about me. Fix your microphone, pause. What's happening, man? What I do?

Say what you said. I'll take the label off. Yeah, take the label. That? What I do shit. Say what you said. Yeah take the label off. Yeah take the label off that's cool. I'm just thirsty my boy. Childhood to the game you got something brewing. I love how freaking my blood pressure just raised like quick in the morning. When we started the show I was already going crazy. That's funny, man.

You gotta tell me. I ain't know what, bro. But anyway. Oh man, y'all wild, man. Let's start the episode off with a real good will soon. All right, y'all. All alone. A real good will soon to Dallas Mavericks, man.

First and foremost, man, prayers up for Kyrie, man. Unfortunately, we found out it was a 20 ACL. Yeah, that sucks, especially after the bounce back season Kyrie had, man, all-star season, playing very, very well, man, it sucks to see Kyrie out like that, man. Nah, for sure, definitely get well soon to my boy, Ree. Yeah, for sure, man. Also, rumor that 80 will probably be out

the rest of the season as well might as well Don't my ass friends are sick Come on, bro. They're about to go crazy. Look at my boy Luke over there thriving They're about to go crazy. Well, you got about 20 games left. And if you ain't playing them stars, you know what time it is No limit. Yeah capture the flag Can we go to where they're right right now in the West? I think that may be a 10 possibly something like that They don't have a shot. Oh, they can lose out They can most definitely lose out I imagine everybody else down there is to

Yeah They probably got enough time to lose out How they do? I? Mean they're gonna be bad at the jazz of Pelicans They do. I mean they ain't gonna be bad as the Jazz or Pelicans. Yeah, I was gonna say, could they get to the 13th, the Spurs at least? Yeah, they definitely get to 13th. Okay. The only thing is the NBA ain't gonna let that happen.

The Mavericks will not be getting the number one pick. For real? It's not, it's over. NBA won't let that happen. They cannot get the number one pick. But, it's a lot of turmoil going on. Yeah, there's no way that they're gonna allow that to happen, it's deeper than rap. Yeah. All good though.

Dang, man. That sucks, man. I just want Kyrie to get healthy. I'm sorry that happened, man. He was having a hell of a year. For sure, man, and it sucks because the timing got bigger as well. Super Chat already asking a good question.

Prayers to Kyrie, factoring in his age. You think this is the end of Kyrie being Kyrie. Clay was never the same after his ACL injury. Well, Clay had ACL and Achilles. Yeah. Didn't Clay get injured in college too? I think he may have got injured in college too. I ain't for sure about that, but I know he had an ACL and Achilles. That's two tough injuries that he trying to come back from. Kyrie done had knee injury before and he returned when he split his kneecap, something like that,

and he returned. ACL is not to say it ain't bad, but it's not as bad as it once was. Like people return jumping higher, better, stronger than ever. That's a lot. That's very true. That's not the worst injury you can have.

Achilles is probably tougher, I would say. Hopefully retirement's better than ever. Most definitely. It does suck because of the timing factor of the money situation. Kyle Ridge is probably going to get paid this off season. Yeah, that fucking sucks. Yeah, now that paycheck probably does look

a little bit different. But I wonder how Dallas will play this. Is Dallas, obviously, they probably not going to offer him the max, but you think they're going to give him a good enough bag to come back? They have to. I mean, you will play this. Is Dallas, obviously, they probably not going to offer him the max, but you think they're going to give him a good enough back to come back? They have to. I mean, you let Luca go. So you have to bring Kyrie back.

I mean, obviously, Kyrie's playing great, even though he's not the reason you traded Luca. I mean, he was already there, but you have to bring him back. He's the only star power you got besides Anthony Davis. And if you let Kyrie walk and you lost Luca, bro you might be on. They might have you.

You know how they acting over there though? Yeah that's what I'm saying. They act like they don't even care about the game or the NBA bro. So. Nah. Build this resort. They won't be able to survive Dallas if that happen. And maybe that's what they want.

I hear him say, they say we going to get changed one way or another. If you ever give us this resort the people going to push us out. Maybe that's what they want. I hear them say, they say we're gonna get changed one way or another. If you ever give us this resort, the people gonna push us out. Maybe that's what they want. Maybe they wanna go to Vegas. Yeah, so I ain't. Might be a bigger play.

Yeah, and if y'all piss me off, I'll try AD. We might just be super bad. For Cal Cousins. We'll fuck the league up. We gonna get what we want. They gonna get out of the way. That's what I'm saying. I don't think they cared too much, but you know.

It's bad for the league, but it is. I mean, they gave away Luca, bro. Anything is possible. I really can't see what happens post-career with Nico. Like, when he gets to talk about the real behind these situations on the podcast, five, six years from now, it's gonna be hilarious. There's probably so many things we don't know about this,

because all this situation is crazy. He ain't never gonna talk. He ain't never gonna talk about it? Nah. Damn. No way. Get well soon Dallas man. Kyrie prayers up.

He's gonna get paid a lot of money just to shut up. Take this blame. Yeah. That's crazy. They all set out the rest of this year obviously. They come back next year healthy. I mean what's the AC up?

Six months, seven months? Six, seven months. But I mean probably feel himself it's up, six months, seven months, possibly? Yeah, six, seven months. But I mean, probably feel himself, it's gonna take him probably close to a year. Damn. Yeah, I'm sure he be back hooping. Yeah. I mean, being able to hoop at six or seven months,

but I'm sure he ain't gonna feel like himself for a year. He not gonna rush. As he shouldn't. Nah. Yeah, as he shouldn't. That's the kind of AP part about Kyrie because it's not about his athleticism because he ain't never been a high flyer,

but like his game is erky jerky. Like that knee stability, that's a different type of comfort you gotta have, especially having an injury like that. But if there's anybody we think we could bounce back it'd be Kyrie for sure, man. Get Wilson and Kyrie. We'll talk about bronze shortly, man.

Let's get straight to it, man. Steph put on a show yesterday in the garden, took care of the Knicks yesterday, 114 to 102. We know Kat didn't play for personal reasons, We'll talk about bronze shortly, man. Let's get straight to it, man. Steph put on a show yesterday in the Garden. Took care of the Knicks yesterday, 114 to 102. We know Kat didn't play for personal reasons, but Steph went crazy, 28, nine and seven. Jimmy Butler hooped out with 19 as well. OG showed up yesterday with 29,

and Jalen Brunson had 25 and seven. OG was going crazy in the third quarter. I was watching that game. Nah, OG was hooping. Yeah. Yeah. T.I.B.S. had Brunson out too long. That's a first.

I mean, I watched him, he damn near didn't play the third quarter for real. But OG, that was the game plan. If you watch how the Warriors were playing them, Jimmy was helping on the rolls every time OG was in the corner, open for three every single time, but it's like, you gotta make them. Yeah.

You're gonna live with them. He was doing his thing though. He hooked. For sure. I told you though, the Knicks are like one player away from always being bad. For sure, bro. Yeah.

Cause Mikel was out for the third goal, maybe Timbs is just resting boys, cause I don't know, it was just weird, the lineups that was in. Yeah, and we'll talk about the Warriors win this game But like you said the Knicks being one player away Casper's to miss his next five-game road trip that got coming up at Lakers at Clippers at Kings at Blazers at war Are you missing all these allegedly?

Damn I hope everything cool with them. Yeah, but if you go to look at the stand is in the East right now Yeah, they they better win a majority of these games. And they probably won't. Yeah, they're five games out from dropping down. The Knicks can play anybody though out East, so it don't even matter. Them Stannis don't mean nothing. I don't think the Knicks want to see the Bucs.

I think they feel comfortable with the Pacers. I think they feel comfortable with the Pistons. I would not want to see the Bucs if I'm the Knicks. Okay, well everybody else is Bucks and Celtics, bro. Everybody else is pretty much green. Oh, you don't think they feel the Cavs either? No. Yeah, they not beating the Cavs.

After the way the Cavs just whooped their ass, I feel a little bit differently about that. I was there with you. You know I got a high host or a Knicks that's full strap. I mean, they're not going to slip to eight though. No, but I mean, I would probably want to say in that three spot if I'm the next at least. Four get a little iffy.

But yeah, cat man, I don't know what's going on, but get well soup for him as well. When we talk about the, with the Knicks rank and defense, 19, but like they 29, they face the top 10 offense. So they playing really good against teams that sell par, but them top tier teams that we showed a record last week, they are not getting a job none at all. Yeah, they don't really got nobody besides Mikell. I mean, OG, I guess I can say they know them for defense. But after that, it gets spooky. Josh Hart, he can guard, but he more of a utility guy. He can make plays, but he's not like a lockdown defender

to me, for sure. He can make plays, but every time you watch, like Mikel Bridges is guarding Steph Curry. OG is guarding Jimmy Butler. Josh Hart, he gets the remainder of the people, I mean he can guard, but he's just a real good utility guy. Rebounders, loose balls, stuff like that. He can make plays.

But they don't got no bona fide scores. I mean, Mikel Bridges can score. OG can have a night. Josh Hart's not a scorer. He can get you some layups or whatever. But when Kat out, that's 30 points basically. And somebody gotta fill them roles. And 12 rebounds.

At least. That's a tough role. And Mitchell Robison is. First game back too, but yeah. It's quiet. Him and Precious can't even feel that void. For sure, man. I don't like it. Hey man, I saw some love and stuff.

12 and 1, the garden of his career, that's fire. Yeah, that's home. Yeah, that's my house. 12 and 1 is a feat, for sure. Yeah, that's crazy. Hey man, Golden State, that Jimmy Trey, that's crazy. I mean go to state That Jimmy Trey worked out for them. I know everybody was iffy on that, but they just simply are losing games, bro Yeah, they look like I mean they line up is so janky to like if you look at it Jimmy at the floor

Moses Moody BP playing good to devil a good game for VP yesterday as well. Dr. At the five. Mm-hmm It's a it's a weird lineup, but it's working. Buddy Hill, this is a point you were getting ticked yesterday. On me. Buddy hooped out yesterday. 15. And the game before that, he hooped out, I think he had 22, 21? Yeah. I would love for them just to get a big though. I don't know who they got to get. I mean, they probably can't get nobody now.

Look like the bigs is dried up in a waiver wire. They need a big. Most definitely. Steph could have had 40 yesterday. Childish Steph, man. Yeah. He was missing some shots he normally don't miss. Still had 28.

Missed a couple layups. And he was at the only play with 30 minutes. 33. Yeah, 30 most yesterday. Shout out to the Warriors, man. They're going crazy. Not a team I would want to see in the playoffs. I'm speaking to the team, but still killing.

The Cavs extended their winning streak to 11. Took care of the Bulls yesterday, 139, 117. Built to add situation for show. Donovan Mitchell had 28 and seven. Jerry Donovan hooped out with 25 and 17. DG hooped out with 19. Kobe White had 25 and seven, but man the Cavs. If they don't make it to the conference finals,

boy this is going to be a let down. For real, bro. Cause they playing at a high, high level. Very high level. You got Donovan Mitchell getting player of the month. Every mobile getting defensive player of the month. 51 wins bro. Allen 25 and 17 is fire.

11 game win streak is crazy. But they keep having crazy win streaks. Keep having crazy win streaks. They just came off a 15 game win streak. Lost one and bounced back with another one. Yeah I would hate to see them not make it to the conference finals. That would suck.

That would be one of the biggest letdowns as of late, recent years. Yeah. But I also think, depending upon who they lose to, I think the way that people will perceive it. Nah. Good shit, because you got to play a weak team. So if Yonis go crazy against the Cavs

and get them out that series, are we gonna fault the Cavs losing to Yanis because he a great? Yes. Yanis ain't made it to the conference finals since they went to the chip. Okay. They lost last year to the Pacers.

See, I know he ain't played, but year before that he did. Yep. So, the team's been beating them. I remember, what was that? Celtics beat them that year? Yeah. They the best team in the league. Yeah bro, y'all 51 and 10.

We only got 21 games left. That's a let down. Respect. They don't make it to the conference finals, that's a let down. I don't disagree, they had a hell of a season, boy. Shout out to the Cavs, ain't much to say, built to ass situation for sure. Another built built a situation for show another built a situation

I'm saying patient took care of the Rockies yesterday 115 and 102 Tyrese Halliburton went crazy yesterday 28 15 Siakam whooped out 18 shake gonna hoop that as well with 25 and 9 We won't smoke in the East. We're not scared of nobody if you're not the Cavs Not the Celtics. We won't smoke. Y'all beat a team without they point guard. We beat a team to play last night. And Tyrus Hulbert has been killing. I was gonna let his shit off today. 28-15.

Y'all beat a team, they ain't even had their point guard. That's all NBA numbers. Y'all can't help. And you know what? They red started the night before it gets OKC because they was trying to duck smoke. They knew they was going to lose that game. They rested all they starters just to come to NAP

and get smacked. That's what you get. All they starters just to come in there and get smacked. That's what you get. All they starters ain't healthy. I don't care. Van Fleet ain't play. I don't care. Realistically, y'all not better than the Rockets, bro. When both teams is healthy, y'all not better than them.

Realistically, in the series, we have smacked them. Boy, you crazy. We have smacked them in the series. You crazy. Light work. It's quiet. Shout out to Tyrese. Tyrese might not shoot, game two.

I've been talking crazy, but Tyrese is having a historic season on the low. Tyrese is gonna lock that shit up. You know what? Historic season on the low. Shout out to Clutch Points. I'll pull the article up. Talk about it, yeah.

He got no turnovers or something? Come on, bro. That man had 112 assists with like six turnovers. That's insane, bro. That's a good Mike Conley year for sure. You, hey listen. Nah, I'm saying though for real. Tyce Jones do that every year.

Tyce Jones, Mike Conley. Oh. Real shit, they do though. Tyce Jones do that every year. I ain't seen him in the All-Star game, shout out to Tyce. I ain't seen Tyce, I ain't seen Tyrecy. Not this year, we know two time All-Star. He was at Royal Rumble with us.

On me. Shout out to Recy, man. I mean. I mean. Shout out to Recy, man. Hey, why did you pull up Trae Young? Did nobody ask you to pull up nothing in this situation? I don't know what's wrong with Freaky Mike this morning, but nobody asked you to pull up Trae Young. I'm only hating on Tyrese because y'all keep saying he was coming on the show,

he ain't never come. He said that. Shit, I was just telling y'all what y'all told me. My boy Off The Core Activities prohibiting him doing interviews right now. I ain't mad at Tyrese, you know it's all love. For sure. But now, their Rockets team is really talented.

They definitely miss Fred Van Fleet for sure. What can they do to fix these next year? Just more experience to probably help them going into next year? Oh, the Rockets? Yeah, because they seem to have the pieces available, but they just need to. They need a couple better and pieces

Hmm Van Fleet gotta be healthy because they they stable person on 18 for sure You know what you're gonna give a Dylan Brooks. You don't play hard do all the antics shit But they just need one more player that they could go to if somebody is down It was Van Fleet is out like in your holidays They back up point guard or read, however you want to play. They need one more player that's the voice of reasoning out there. For sure.

If you looking for Dylan Brooks to be your voice of reasoning when Van Fleet is out, it's a little different. Yeah, you might be in trouble. So I haven't seen them use tops at 20 yesterday, bring the ball up, turn and initiate the offense, and I'm like, that ain't it yet, but they solid, man. They got a hell of a future for Charlton Houston.

I'm kind of leaning towards B hand. If you can trade for one good player, don't break up that team, you get two bets on that team. Yeah, there's even one. Just wanted to be just enough. Because Tari Easton was balling yesterday. And every time Tari Easton get chance,

he gets a hoop. They got talent. They legit compete with everybody they play. But he's a great trade piece though. Yeah, Tari. One of them gotta go. See the Thompson twin, Tari Easton, obviously Ken Whitmore is the guy that's gonna go.

Yeah, I mean Thompson is definitely not available. Jabari, Smith, out of them four, two of them gotta go. You can move Tari Easton, you can move Jabari, and two picks, and get you a quality, quality vet for that team. I don't know, you gotta move one of them.

Two of them out of that four. I don't know, you got to move one of them, two of them out of that four. I've seen this on the internet, wanna see how you feel about Tig, they're talking about as far as the Rockets hierarchy. If you had to move between Jalen Green and Men Thompson, who you keeping? Cause a lot of people said Men Thompson

would probably be our best player next year. Who am I moving? Yeah, if you had to, if one has to stay between them two for the future, who you say has to stay? Man, I probably move Jalen Green. Just cause the Thompson twin, he's so versatile. Like he can defend, he can score. Once he learn how to shoot, he a superstar.

Once he learn how to shoot, but that's a big if. Like, shit. We've been asking people to find a jumper for so long. Yeah, but could you put him in a situation to where A-Man Thompson could get you 20 a night? Because no slight of Jack McGrady, he's elite. One of the best wings in NBA for sure. But also on our test shit, obviously he had better offense,

but could you make a man Thompson capable of a 20 point score for your team? Yeah, what do you average? What are you 15 right now? 14? And he own with two players after the dub plus. But Shane Gold is up there too. He can average 20.

He can get 20, he just ain't shoot. Yeah. If he could shoot, he probably average 20 right now. It's easier to find another, I don't want to say it like that, but it's harder finding a Thompson than a Jalen Green. Yeah, Jalen Green is no shade, they both fire, but he like Malik Monk. Yeah.

He like these wings that got this scoring punch, athleticism that you love on your team. He a mode of Jamal Crawford, even though Jamal Crawford wasn't as athletic. But you can plug and play. I can get you 20 off the bench anytime. Plug him in, I can get you 20 as a starter, I can get you 20 off the bench,

no matter wherever I play. Kevin Martin, wherever you put me. Underrated bucket, Kevin Martin. I get buckets. Thompson, if he could shoot, damn, there'd be Kawhi, bro. Yeah, I like that comparison. For real, he would definitely be Kawhi Leonard if he could really shoot the ball.

For sure, man. Bright future for Young Rockets, for sure. Shout out to the patches, get that dub anyway though. Young has got a triple dub yesterday against the Hawks, 127 to 121, 26, 12 and 10. Dane hooped out with 23 as well. Trey Young hooped out with 28 and 13, but the Bucs, seven of the last eight, man.

And making that playoff run we was talking about. That's not a team I really would be confident standing in front of man if I'm one of them higher C's for sure. That's a fact, I just hate how they, I don't. Stop the sexiest basketball by any means, it's ugly. It's mud over there, like they good like. What's your biggest issue with them? Bro, cause I used to watch Dane so much, I was a fan of Dane.

Right. Like even when I was playing, I used to watch their games like damn, how's he getting to it like this? Him, Steph, CP, all these great players, I would watch all their games. Yeah. And now when I watch Dane,

it's like he been handcuffed a little bit. You know what I mean? Damn they're trying to a great system guy. No, not even system. Like he always shot threes, but like it's different. Free flow ain't there? Nah, like he used to come off pin downs, he used to come off flare screens and the pick and rolls.

The offense was ran around him and it was fun to watch. Like he was, he just had these moments that you just couldn't believe. That's why he top 75. And he still had moments and you still see him be brilliant. I mean, what, he still had 20 points last night? Yeah, he shot two for 10. Yeah, from three.

He still had 23. He still had 23. But just the way he played was different. And I understand when you're playing with a Giannis and all these super unreal players, super, super unreal players. I know your game is going to change, but I just like the old Dame. Like watching Dame when everything evolved around him.

So it's just tough for me to watch. I'll pray it's not against us, but I can't wait to the playoffs if we get those Dame a little moments. We'll just like, all right, I need you to go do what you do best to get us these games. Like ain't no leash, ain't no, I need Dame to go with me a game.

And we're going to see some moments for him this postseason. He going to get 40, 50, but it's nasty to watch it now. I know we will. I think he going to have a playoffs, like a playoff run and remember, I wouldn't be surprised if they make it to the championship.

I know the Celtics is a crazy team, but I think Dame, it's like his time. I think it's his moment to have one of them years that we haven't seen yet. I mean, we seen him have playoff runs when he said, you know, the bubble, he went crazy. But I think it's just time for the world to see him go all the way crazy on the live stage.

He's speaking it into his instance, for sure. We talked to him, so yeah. Yeah, I would not be surprised. He got high hopes for him. They just got a jail, but I don't know, the Celsius is just, mm. Yeah, bro, that's your honest opinion. I mean, I can't afford no injury.

They playing well, they playing well. I just, the way it look, I mean, they getting the job done. Yeah. They getting it done. I just remember what it used to look like You know, I mean, mmm You know, it's funny. We started off this season all on dockhead

Ain't nobody said nothing about Doc in a long time man. Shout to Doc Rivers, man They win Said that about old girl Excuse me. So I'm saying back in the day. They are my way of just free-flowing.

Like, if he ain't on your team, you probably like, man, I can't stand that motherfucker. Like, but when you watching him play, you can't help but to appreciate it. Yeah. For sure. He went crazy yesterday. 30, 15, to eight, Brian had 30, 4, 8, 6. We just need the productions.

We don't give a damn how you built 3015 and 8 Next to 34 86. Yeah. Yeah, I'll buy y'all the hook you won't fail. Yeah, but you can't like here beer, bro facts like it's weird that you can't like I Can't go to a kid and be like this is what an NBA player looks like. Yeah Yeah, I can't show you Luca or your kitchen. We couldn't show Zack Randolph. Hell no.

For real? I'm here, this is how you gotta look. And then when you go play, if a motherfucker tell me like, well I wanna play like him. I'm like, well I understand. Smoke Luca, drink beer, man. Yeah, I'm all for it.

He feel like a pro wrestler, bro. Yeah, I'm all for it. He feel like Kevin Owens, bro. That's hilarious. Hey, y'all are killin'. He smoke a drink beer Luka Yokes, I'm here for y'all All is working now trying to get abs you gotta had a game though Yeah, you let's we have to make that clear that clear tea You gotta know how to use your body. They don't understand how strong them dudes. Yeah, that's what I'm saying Okay, super strong. Yeah, we don't forget that it's crazy strong Yeah, but they also got a good ability bro. Yeah, we don't try or cannot teach you that it's different bro. We show super chat Z a Q E I ain't about to tip that. What is Lakers' biggest weakness post, yeah, I was gonna say,

what is Lakers' biggest weakness post-trade? I thought it would be defense, but it seems they defend well. Also, gotta pop out from Minneapolis for a playoff game. We still waiting on Jeff to show his face and not run. All right, is that the small n flag? Respect. Why y'all got smoke with me in Minneapolis?

He just show his face and not run, damn. That's not inviting, nigga. Yeah, I want to pull up with Devil Horn? What type of time you on gangster? But their biggest weakness is probably going to be their post defense. They get caught playing the Nuggets, I don't think. Depending how they go about it, they're going to be playing the Nuggets.

They're going to be playing the Nuggets. They're going to be playing the Nuggets. defense. They get caught playing the Nuggets, I don't think. Depending how they go, they had Roy on them in their last series against them. They had Roy front them. People was coming to help trapping the post and doing things like that. But if Jackson Hayes has to play them one on one, it's Christmas. Or my guy, 55, the sub, sub then, yeah he's Christmas against that. That's the only weakness they really got right now

is that post defense. And Jerry Vettelbaugh has been playing amazing, but if he's got an ISO with Yoke, it is going to be a bad game for him. They put Vanderbilt or Rui on him, and then they come in to trap the ball. I mean, one thing that Braun struggled with is shooting threes.

I mean, he's having a good year, but he's not a knock down three point shooter. I'm just talking about Denver. Russ Westbrook struggles shooting, Aaron Gordon struggles shooting. You know, Jamal Murray can shoot, you know, Michael Porter can shoot. But if they kicking it out to Westbrook,

Ron, Aaron Gordon, I like the Lakers chances. Well, it's definitely gonna be a lot of averages in that situation for sure. For sure. That Luke Gishoyo says, question for Jeff, Lakers got three back to back games the week of March 17th. Have you ever dealt with that in your career

and how does the team prepare for that? Got three back to back games. That's not even like, I don't know what he's saying. I think they play three games in a row maybe? I don't know. Yeah, that's not even possible. You can't even do that. Yeah, I'm not too sure what this question is. You can't do that in the NBA.

Clean it up a little bit. You only could do that in the lockout year. But back to back games, how you do it? I mean, even they got three sets of back to backs. That's all you fake ass basketball watching. Ass niggas don't even know, just be saying shit. It just wasn't too clear. Let's look this up.

Even they got three back to backs. Ain't no refunds, nigga. What do you mean they got three back to backs? Like, they play the 17th, 18th, off. 19th, play the 20th, 21st, off. Yeah. They got a day off. So they have another, I don't know.

13th, 14th, day off, 16th. Yeah. Yeah, so they got a day off. No know they got a day off on 18. Oh, so he's saying they got back to back three back-to-backs Also, okay, they put a 13th or 14 break 15 is off obviously 16 17 break 18 19 Now that's a crazy ass schedule. So they have three back-to-backs. They have three back-to, okay. That's a crazy schedule. Like that's a rare schedule. And that sucks too, because they play good ass teams on, damn. Y'all can almost guarantee bronze,

not playing a couple of those games. But- He's not playing San Antonio for sure. Yeah, but I ain't going to lie, that's a crazy schedule, whoever brought that up. That's like the lockout year. That's the kind of stuff we was doing a lockout year. That's a crazy schedule. But the lockout year, That's the kind of stuff we was doing a lockout year. That's a crazy schedule. The lockout year, we played three games in a row.

I can't even imagine playing it back to back. I remember one year, the year, the lockout year, we had played three games in a row. On the third game, we went triple overtime with Utah. I was tired. It was crazy as hell. I was about third year. I didn't give a damn. I was having fun. We never practiced. Literally we had training camp for one week. And then you went straight to games. I think games started on Christmas. I think the first game was when D-Rose hit that floater against the Lakers.

That was like the first game of the year. And then you never practiced again. You just played games. Never. We didn't go over scouting report. We didn't do nothing. You just went out there and hooked. Damn.

What'd he say? He said, I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. I'm going to go to the Lakers. like the first game of the year, and then you never practice again, you just play games. Never.

We ain't go over scouting report, we ain't do nothing. He just went out there and hooked. Dang, was Woody still your coach? Nah, it was LD, Larry Drew was our coach. Shout out to LD. I had fun, because I came off of the playoffs. That was my second year, I didn't play all year, I played the playoffs.

My third year, it's my first year starting. I'm 22, 23. You got a lot of energy in the world. People sitting out, like, oh, I'm 22, 23. Time to cook. You got all the energy in the world. People sitting out like, oh, I get to shoot. Like, Joe, I ain't playing this game. That's two in a row, third game, I ain't cool. I was taking game winners all the time. Boy, this was tired.

I was having a ball. That's why niggas winning three OTs. Just to get out there bullshitting. I tell you, Devin Harris missed so many games with his dead game. Like, to go, the goal head shots, he might miss like six goal head shots. People forget how raw he really was, bro.

Devin Harris was cold. That's the reason why he traded him for J. Kit. He was so cold, bro, in Dallas. And what makes it funny, y'all was probably like, damn, Devin hit one of these so we can go home, nigga. No, we was in Atlanta, I'll never forget. I was like, golly, we're going to overtime again after two games the day before.

Luis, pull it up. Nah, it was crazy. Super chat, Brandon Dawkins asks, T, do you think LeBron should have been the first unanimous MVP over Steph? Yep. I mean, obviously LeBron had crazy years, but I think what Steph did, yeah, I mean,

Jordan should have been a unanimous MVP before. I mean, I don't know. That's a fact. Like, you know, NBA is the NBA show. Pat Boomer asks, question for Jeff, is there a specific monster or trick that helps you stay composed while handling the ball under pressure?

My theory is if you put in the work, you always, you confident in your handle because you put in the work. Like anything you do, if you practice on it and you continue to practice on it, it becomes perfect. Never really going to be perfect, but in your mind it becomes perfect. If you put in that work, when the game time happens,

you put in so much work, you confident. I do it all the time. This is what I do. I put in work, I do this, I handle the ball, I handle the ball, I handle the ball. When the game come, it's natural. Michelle. Michelle, hey, shout out to the Filet mix tape out there.

So you're getting your shit off on the internet, man. It's a mix tape. Yeah, Philae got you another situation, bro. Yeah, he did one. Well, shout out to Philae. It's fire, nah, it's fire, bro. Nah, people just wanna love, too. I appreciate that, bro.

It was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised 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. I'm Ashlyn Harris.

Now I want to ask you this question about Clay going to the maps. Obviously it didn't work out as planned because that shit's going crazy. But one of the things he was almost going to go to was the magic. That probably would have helped this year. I don't know how much, but that's the type of sign. And like you said, the Duncan Roberts situation, that makes sense. Because if they would have had Clay this year. I don't know how much, but that's the type of sign they need, like you said, the Duncan Robinson situation, that makes sense, because if they would have had Clay this year with KCP, they'd have had a little bit more

spacing for some of them bigs, man. Yeah, they need spacing. For sure. They would have been a good pick up. But, shit. Free Clay, man. You'd probably get Duncan Robinson now for the Lovsky. Yeah, facts.

EBT, for sure. All right, man, couple games tonight, we want to see how I feel about them. Blazers at Celtics. Celts. Oh, for sure. Okay. T-Wolves at Hornets.

Wolves. T-Wolves. Easy. Heat at Cavs. Cavs for sure. Jazz, you say you're gonna heat? Yeah. Okay, turn up.

Jazz at Wizards. Go out to dinner. So when you're watching Tubi, this would probably be on. Nah, facts. Yeah, that is definitely a true TV game. Mavs at Bucks. Bucks for sure.

Kings at Nuggets. Nuggets. Yeah. Thunder at Grizzlies. Thunder. Thunder. Pistons at Clippers. Clips. Mmm, bounce back.

I'm going with the Pistons, bro. Pistons my sleeper team. I got a cave with 25 though tonight, but Nah Yo, what's up with John? Oh, yeah, uh I think he should be playing tonight Should be playing tonight, I guess I'm a rentant, but he injured so much, bro. Yeah, they don't know if they're gonna lose, especially when they're throwing his body around like that.

I don't know what he gotta do. Yeah, I love him. I think he's so talented, but. Yeah, his availability, he's questionable. Now we shall see. Shoulder, still nursing that injury. All right, game time decision for South. I don't know how long he gonna be able to

maintain that high level. Yeah. Say they ain't nothing on people no more. He ain't doing that, but like his game is so predicated off being athletic and fast and that's the difference between him and like Trey Young. Trey Young, you know, it's being fast and stuff,

but he can shoot. And that's what's going to give him longevity. He can shoot off that pick and roll. And he can shoot with range and he can make passes. Jalen Green is damn near Jai Moran. Damn near play the same. And what? They do.

Throwing their body around, they play the same way. All that fletticism, bro. Yeah, but it's different with Jai. Jai got skill. Jai can it's different with Josh. I got Jock and pass the ball with the best of them. His skill set is floater is unbelievable I'm just saying Josh got to rely on that though. Jock can play without Using I'm not saying you think but his speed and his quickness is make him so vulnerable. I mean, so deadly. Yeah

It make the defense so vulnerable because he can get to the rim so easy. But, Jajas learned how to slow down and just shoot a couple threes. They go on the screen, pull the three. He do sometimes. But his natural instinct is like, they going under, I'm about to fly to this rim

and try to do something. He got some of that CP in him, pull like, you know how CP manipulate that mid range. Mm-hmm. Job, you all right. Is that the next step he needs to progress to? Yeah. Shit if he wanna play.

For sure. Yeah. Give us some of the job, man. Hope we play tonight, it'll be a good game for sure. Against the thunder. Vera five buckets, be here. Who was getting to it yesterday? I'm gonna give it to the big zoo.

He was killing. 35, 15. Being a lot more consistent than what people think too. He been having a hell of a year. Yeah hell, he's top 10 center in the league. The Lakers giving him up was always crazy. If they still had him, the ship for sure. But now I'm giving it to the zoo.

For sure, I'm gonna go with my dog Tyrese, 28, 15 yesterday. Great win against the Rockets. He wasn't even up there. Yeah, it's called good. Damn! I'm about to say that ain't on my clipboard. I mean, my little, I'm bad.

I'm gonna go with Zion, man. We always talk crazy. You know, not even talk crazy, but just mess with Zion, because he mess with Double M. For sure. He be killin', man. He do do bro.

No Zion had 37, 64 yesterday on 70% shooting yesterday. Yeah he healthy, when he healthy, he one of the best in the league for sure. Yeah Zion is elite for sure. Always respect for Zion. Freaking Z whooped out yesterday. Devin Basil whooped out yesterday. Career high 37, 11 and five.

Hell of a night at the office for sure. And then Bronn the Luka combined for 64 is crazy man. For sure. Super chat Bronn, the Luka, come blinding for 64, it's crazy, man. For sure. Super Chat, some random says, athletes, is Kyrie playing too many minutes, have anything to do with the injury, just mass-forcing Ky, have anything to do with it? Because a 33-year-old with injury record

having the highest MPG is crazy. I mean, he might've upped his minutes in his usage and could've did something with it. You know what I mean? He was being more aggressive. He had the ball more, his usage rate probably went up. And after you do the same,

you gotta think basketball, you do the same movements over and over and over and over again. It's just wear and tear. Like you do the same movements over and over. Eventually, it's wear and tear. Like you do the same movements over and over. Eventually it's wear and tear. Every day you wake up, you run and you jump, run and you jump, run and you jump.

Something's gonna happen. For sure. Ain't too many people who play professional sports don't have no injuries, no major ones. And ones who get blessed and go away with minor will still be hurt for sure. Facts. All right, Super Chat asks,

which I figure what if Derrick Rose or Baron DeRoy? Derrick Rose. DeRoy and then be one of my favorite players, but Derrick Rose. I mean, he want MVP. Like I don't know where, he want to leave MVP if he don't get hurt. We don't know where he is.

Most definitely. All right, give us some behind who needs some encouragement this wonderful Wednesday morning? Lil Trey Jemisin. Yeah. Who that? Boy that Zion Duncan? Yes sir.

Look at this. Hey. He just kept going, every time, he looking slim too. My boy in shape. God damn, bro. Every time we just, every time we forget about him, he come out of nowhere in shape and just, I just hope he can play a whole season one year. Make it look 40.

Good pass, Trey. Reluctant pass. Free Zion, man. Send him to another team so he can really hoop. We need to see Zion in the playoffs. Brian like, damn. Hey. That's too short. so he can really hoop. We need to see Zion in the playoffs. Brian like, damn.

Hey. That boy. That boy is too strong, bro. That boy. That's tough, man. Might give us some gossetorian prints. Yeah, my boy Wafaa cut off mid jumper yesterday. I was, I had to see y'all that bro, I was crying at home. Hey look at y'all, that's that shit.

He's in the ball rest of the game. Even dog had to laugh bro. This happened at the beginning of the game. Y'all had to say pass in the ball rest of the game. Nobody scored yet. He was already through with his shit. Hey. The real Porter brother for sure.

Cause why not just shoot the ball, T? Shoot the ball, fam, we wildin'. He was looking for that drop pass. That's how much the Yonis got nigga scared. I swear, cause he wanted that drop pass. That was a drop pass down to Yonis, for real. Boys not even looking at the bat. Not even looking at the rim.

He said, fuck that middie. I'm not letting Yonis get this pass. We gotta turn over. Stupid ass. Oh, bad team, who you got? Devin Vassil dunked on somebody. Diehead, young Wofford. Ay. Right foot, right hand, that's tough.

Split the A. Man. Hooped out. Got the A. Man. Hooped out. That was steel. Dumped his ass. I love they bench, take the bench out. Oh yeah, they geeked up. You can win the tall shit.

You can win the tall shit. You can win the tall shit. God damn. That's how you know Pop ain't there. Oh yeah. They bench would have never reacted like that back in the day. Boy, slow clap. They would've been standing there.

They all would've just put up a fist. They point at people and shit. Tony Parker would've hated it. Tony Parker would've told them, sit down. Try to holla at this girl. Get well soon. Damn, get well soon on the TP. The real TP.

I was just talking about TP2. Nevermind. The real TP. All right. TP2 is a good album. Classic, well we can't talk about it. Oh yeah, we try to whiz and brag what you got for him, man. I want sex in the kitchen.
