BD or Steve Francis? I'm taking Baron Davis. I'm taking Baron Davis too, but Steve Francis was cold. He was cold, but I'm taking BD. I'm taking BD too, but damn bro, Steve Francis was like, you ain't going wrong. Choose either one.

I was thinking about that when they was talking shit to each other. I'm like, I don't think niggas really know how good, few hundred thought you might not know how good Steve Francis was. Steve Francis was cold, bro. Journey to the NBA alone is crazy. That nigga was transferring every year from school

till he got to Maryland, till he got to college, went crazy and got to the league. Nah, yeah, that's my phone. I just went to the National. Steve Francis was cold, but Baron Davis, bro. He just did it longer. I feel like, like he played longer. Yeah.

He was at a high level longer, I should say. Who was more explosive? Ooh. If you're going athlete-wise, no disrespect to BD, I gotta go franchise. I'ma go with BD though. Ooh, that's a hell of a, it go franchise. I'ma go with BD though. Ooh, that's a hell of a, it's close. I'ma go with BD,

cause that nigga Taurus ACL still came back crazy. Oh man, Steve was punching on niggas bro. That was his ticket to the league though. Like, Baron Davis still had everything else too, even when he slowed down. But if you really go watch BD, he was so athletic, bro. Like he punched, when he was in Charlotte, that BD was crazy.

Man, he was punch on. And he wasn't little either. BD was a motherfucking tank. He punched on the ticket, Jermaine Oni. I mean, Steve Francis punched on niggas too. Steve Francis' mix tape is crazy. Well, he did Detroit Hudson, so disrespectful. One of the worst.

So disrespectful, bro. I was even thinking going down to their handle. Like, I'm like, damn, I don't even know who had the better handle, because BD put niggas in the mixer. I mean, it's a great battle. Yeah. I just heard them going, I mean, they boys and shit.

They was just talking shit, but I'm like, damn, that, that's a lot closer. That's when everybody kind of be like, I don't know. That's a great battle. But I'm probably pick BD though, to lead my team. Oh yeah, if you going off off that, then probably go BD. I would like to ask Katina, I'm hoping that, cause I know he's super close with Steve,

but like, who was better? Oh yeah, he didn't know for sure. Well not, well he have a better analysis than us on that shit. Yeah, he didn't know for sure. Well not, well he'd have a better analysis on that shit. Yeah I just wanted that, I just wanted to throw that out. Shit, look at that old Rockets team, him, Y'all, they was nice bro, he was a big part of that. Was Y'all really like that?

Oh Y'all was like that, most definitely. Y'all. I was thinking about that, I'm like Y'all was cold. Y'all don't get hurt, Y'all. Y'all was like that, he just got hurt. Not even from my discretion, cause obviously I wasn't really watching Y'all was cold. Y'all don't get hurt, Y'all. Y'all was like that. He just got hurt. Not even from my discretion, because obviously I wasn't really watching Y'all that heavy, but from all the players around who played against him, give him that much respect.

I got the respect. Y'all was like. I mean, of course, Doug, he made the off-stretch team. Y'all was just like, damn, was Y'all just like right there with Shaq? That's what I'm saying. Y'all was gonna make the off-stretch team regardless. Yeah, I mean, his country fucked with him, bro.

Them votes was crazy. I forgot, they did count. Bro, I mean, those votes were crazy. Those votes was crazy. I forgot, they didn't count. Bro, that nigga was so tall, bro. The first time I seen him, bro, we played him. Bro, that nigga was so tall, I came to like his hip, bro. Damn. Yeah, I'm like, man, what the fuck? And then his legs paused, bro.

You know how you be like, I got big legs. That nigga legs was like three of mine, bro. You know how you be like, I got big legs. That nigga legs was like three of mine, bro. Like that nigga shit like a tree trunk, Pulse. Like bro, I'm like, man, what the fuck? That's why he probably weighed 300 pounds, bro. Shit was crazy. Cause he could shoot like a motherfucker. Yeah, he was like slim up here,

but that nigga legs was massive, bro. You know, it's crazy. If y'all would have played in today's NBA, he already had a nice substrate. He would have had a burner, if Y'all would've played in today's NBA, he already had a knife substrate. He would've had a burner. He didn't even had a three in today's NBA. I swear to God. Injuries probably killed Y'all for sure.

But I was just like, damn, I wasn't trying, I was like, who was up there with Shaq? I was trying to think niggas that was close to Shaq. He was good. Think about a Wimby like Y'all, I think Wimby's shorter than Y'all. Y'all was 7'6", right? Yep.

That shit crazy. What's he Wimby, three? 7'4". Even if you look at pictures of Shaq and Y'6", right? Yep. That shit crazy. What'd she win me, three? 7'4". Even if you look at pictures of Shaq and y'all, it's crazy. And Shaq is crazy. Yeah, 7'6", it's crazy, bro. Niggas is lifting their arms up and smacking the top of the glass, bro.

You know how you, I was a rookie, you know, you excited to see everybody. I walked out out and they fucked me up cause the nigga talk, you know, it's broken English, but he like, what's up, baby? I'm like, what? What? The guy just knew you were about to say what's up,

you about to be ching chow, whatever it was. My father, whatever they say. Ni hao. So here we go. That nigga said, respect. He said, what's up? I was like, what the fuck? Did he kill y'all?

He didn't even play. He was like hurt. Fuck. I want to ask you. Look at that picture, bro. If you ever see him. Like, look how much bigger he is in Shaq. Yeah, that's crazy, bro. You make Shaq look like a little homie, bro. That's crazy. Yeah, Luis.

Roll some, roll some, yeah, clips for us. See y'all highlights. Yeah. I was like, damn, we was talking about the bigs, talking about with Shaq. I'm like, damn, when we was talking about the Bigs, talking about with Shaq, I'm like, damn, ain't wasn't nobody really close. I mean, Sabonis gave him a couple fits, but Migg was really a man of his own, bro. Shaq is a different breed.

Yeah, bro. He's a different breed. I was just saying, like, you gotta think how good, like, David Robinson was, bro. He was still his own brim, bro. David Robinson don't get a lot of respect. Well, not to say, David Robinson get the respect he deserves, bro. Dave Robinson don't get a lot of respect. Well, not to say, Dave Robinson get the respect he deserves, but Dave Robinson was cold.

A lot of people just may not know it. I know Timmy Cain's super, yeah bro. He dropped 70 in the game, bro, that's crazy. You fucking dropped 70? Nigga, you're cold. He did. Dave Robinson was quality big. That nigga had a bounce.

Yeah, but also Shaq came in killing at the end. We're not gonna say the end, but some of, some of those bigs that was on the decline, you look at like Patrick Ewing, like Louser Morton, they was, you know what I'm saying, downgrading in the time period. Shaq was, to be a Shaq, it was just a change in the guards, for real. Even the King was still nice.

But King was a nigga. I just don't think we ever seen no bigs like that again. I mean, the game has changed, but, but Yoke is in the room. It ain't a big man league right now. I mean you got Wimby, they gonna be, the bigs gonna be so unique now that you'll never see a Shaq in them.

It's gonna always be like a Wimby like. A Wimby. Cause people just getting taller. Like everybody's just getting even taller. Like the point guards are six five, six six, six seven. And they move way different than the point guards that was five, six six, six seven, and they move way different than the point guards that were six seven, six eight. Like Magic Johnson couldn't really move.

Now you got LaMelo who's six seven, and he out there crossing looking like he's six foot. So you think Magic would probably be too slow? Hell yeah. I ain't gonna say he wouldn't make the league or be fired, but he would be like, he would be Draymond. He would be the perfect Draymond. Yeah, like you know what I mean?

He would be a secondary ball handler, make plays, pass. Obviously he'd probably be a better passer and all that shit. Yeah. So I ain't disrespecting Magic and saying, but I'm saying his skillset. Yeah, don't get weird y'all. Yeah, he's a coach, we always respect Magic.

His skillset is Draymond. Like, I hired Draymond. Got you. Because he ain't shoot the three like that. He post it up. He ran the break. He definitely didn't shoot. Nah, he ran the break, made good pass,

and that's shit Draymond do just on a different level. Obviously a different level. The IQ that Magic has, he can play it. And he's a basketball. The way he was running them breaks, bro, them dimes is crazy, bro. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's definitely a basketball. The way he was running them breaks, bro, them dimes is crazy, bro. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's definitely a different level.

I mean, nigga started at center in one game, had 40-something. Oh, no, we ain't comparing them at all. Just similar style games. So stepping to NBA right now, just putting his game, how he played, without no advancements. Obviously, if he got born now, he'd be what?

Probably way more athletic, probably played different, probably learned how to shoot and shit. Is it over for the big man? Nah. Like style? Nah. You see him, he just got MVP, you got Yoko, just got MVP.

I mean, like you said, to teach one, it's gonna be slimmer, but it's gonna always be in position. It's gonna always be a need to be feel for sure. Yeah. For sure, cause I just don't know how trainers and shit is teaching. Teaching big kids how to hoop now.

I don't know if niggas are still in the post doing post drills, if that's a waste of their time, or is that a good thing to have, you know what I'm saying? Well, if you watched the NCAA tournament, the Bigs really won it for Florida. Yeah. They was catching, turning, scoring in the post. They was trapping them ball screens.

Bigs was making plays. You got always gonna need that. Look, you look at Cat, even like Gobert when he beat the Lakers. That was crazy. Come on, boy. 27, 24 for somebody that everybody feels could do a lot more with his basketball skills.

We need him, mostly dominated. Yeah, but I don't want to rely on Gobert. Nah, I'll give y'all a cap. I'll give y'all a cap. Shit, look at Isaiah Hardstein. I mean, the Knicks is doing well this year, but there's a severe difference in the way that the Knicks dominated offensive boards

than they did last year. Or even look at Mitchell Robinson now. He's one of the top offensive rebounders in the league. Yeah. Just, you need that. No. Like, if you really had a dominating big, like, all right, we had Shaq against this Boston Celtics team.

Shaq got average 50. Nothing they could do. There would be nothing they could do, bro. He could have set a screen, they all wanna switch. He gonna roll, dunk. Yeah, Shaq could kill J.B. and them. What about, what about Elijah Wan though? Same thing.

They could post for real. Like they had elite feats. They was real life strong. So if MB was healthy and on the Knicks, they would beat the shit out of Boston. Nah, I didn't say that. Cause MB don't do it with Shaq and them. Like Shaq and them real life went to the post

every single time. Like you too little, give me the ball. Like, and B just drawing fouls. Yeah. All right, put Joker on the mix. Oh, it's- Are they beating boss now? Joker to, Joker, yeah, they be nasty.

What? They beating everybody. Yeah, but Joker, he not as dominant as Shaq though. Like when I'm telling y'all bro, when you used to watch, when you used to go watch Shaq bro, they used to real life throw the ball. Oh no, I know, I'm justall bro, when you used to go watch Shaq bro, they used to real life throw them. Oh no, I know, I'm just saying like. Oh he used to just back boom boom, dunk.

Boom boom, dunk. Like you had to have five or six niggas to guard him. Like centers, like you gonna get two fouls in the first two minutes, we already know. You be ready, like that's how the White Howard was bro. Like people don't like to get the White hits credit. Bro that's how the White Howard was. Nig Like people don't like to get the White hits credit. Bro that's how the White Howard was. Nigga we have five centers for the White Howard bro.

I don't think that LeBron James is about to wait two more years and get his son in the league. If he do, then he's really the guy for it.

I don't even think his son thinking about the NBA. Yeah, I don't think that's on the game plan. Respect for Bryce, obviously he gonna be solid. I don't know if that's in Yeah, I don't think that's on the game plan. Respect for Bryce, obviously he gonna be solid. I don't know if that's in the, I don't think that's in the script.

because like Steph should be playing for championships or not right now, and I don't know if that's what they want. And I don't know if Steph wanna leave or not. Would you call this a successful year, or would you be like, I mean, for the Warriors standards, obviously it's not a successful year, but do you think they had a good year?

From where they started and where they were, an all-star break when they had Dennis Shroud and Janell? Most definitely, most definitely. No, that's a definitely, definitely. They still got Jimmy. Nah, 1000% bro. I think they gonna shake back next year though. So who you got in the Western Conference Finals?

You got OKC versus Wolves or you got? I got OKC. Okay. Cause that's what it is. OKC versus Wolves? Yeah. You don't think Denver will take it to seven? I don't got Denver taking it to seven. I got okay. See you prevailing

What you got Mike? Yeah, no good and damn well, we know you know For two years in this pot you still ain't tapping yet No, I know all the players the highlights the stats and everything because I got to but I don't give it them the players, the highlights, the stats and everything because I got to, but I don't give a damn. Who you got DJ? Okay, see you think we gonna get Shay versus AE? Man, I think that's gonna be a fire match up. Believe me is that bro.

Okay, but who y'all are, that was like a great transition. Who you taking, if you can start on that team, you taking AE or Shay? AE. Y'all know who I'm picking bro. Ooh, I don't. Yeah, yeah sure do. Y'all know I was'm picking, bro. I don't. Yeah, yes you do. Y'all know I was on the AE track before everybody.

Mike, if you would just, obviously this is perfect because you don't like basketball. AE has a personality. So you would take AE to start your franchise? Yeah. But I'm not mad at if somebody takes Shay, I told y'all bro, he's just not rah rah like y'all. From a money aspect or like a basketball performance aspect?

Just like audio. Just like start your franchise. AE. Who you talking? Who you talking? I'm talking AE. It's not even close to me. Damn.

He too polarized over a person. Shea would be like, I love his game as a basketball player, but he'd be like 20th on my list if I take the start of franchise. Hell no, Jeff. If you had a list of players in front of you, I think you would see that differently. No, I wouldn't. 20 is crazy.

I would take Luka Dostridge. I just seen how City fucking damn near killed somebody because he left. So you love, you literally love him. He's loved wherever he go. Shout to Niko. So I'm taking Luka. Easy.

I see how much people love Tyrese Halliburton in Indiana. I'm telling you bro, it's not that he's a better player. Hey, Sean's a Reese Cup bro, but I'm nothing bro. What I'm saying is, listen, it's not that Tyrese is nowhere near a better player than Sean. But it's something about Tyrese that people like. Or hate. And that's enough to keep people.

I love Tyrese's game actually. I ain't never been on the hating side. I think that, I just talked about this too. I think that hate from his peers fueled his game and it was good for the Pacers and him for sure. It's something like nobody, everybody knows Shae is nice. But nobody, like you don't hear it, like everybody's like, he cold, his game is nice.

The peers, we all know he cold. But like fans, you don't hear, like everybody's like, he cold, his game is nice, appears, we all know he cold. But like fans, you gotta like OKC. You gotta be from Oklahoma to be like, yeah, that's my guy. I might be biased because I was on that train. Yeah, but like AE, like even still like, if I had to pick a team, like LeBron would still get picked before a show. Yeah, because that's Brian, Steph, KD,

but remove all them old heads, James Harden, Kawhi. I wouldn't pick James Harden over Shay. But I'm saying you said 20, bro. It's not 20 players better than Shay. No way. Like, Victor, Wimby, Ana. Wimby. Say Wimby.

I'm taking Wimby. Jason Tatum. No. He all right, bro. To start my team. You taking Shay? I love, I love Jason. I'm shitty, my nigga tore his, whatever he tore.

He can't get a- Shout to Sergeant Hill, he'll- Yeah, for sure. I'm shitty, he can't get MVP this year. No, I'm not. Man, he all right. Damn. He all right.

Shay, Shay a leader, bro. Jason Tatum a leader, but it's different. Shay working with Les, bro. Yeah, but it's just like- For real, them is regular Shay a leader, bro. Jason Tatum a leader, but it's different. Shay working with Les, bro. Yeah, but it's just like- For real, them is regular niggas, bro. No disrespect to the NBA games. Like everybody in the NBA can hoop, but what's Shay playing with, bro?

Bro, he's over, overachieving, bro. You taking Jalen Brunson or you taking Shay? I'm taking Shay. You have to start your team. Taking Shay. You have to start your team. Taking Shay. If Shay had motherfucking, fucking Kat and Mike L. Bridges and OG, bro, they raw. Them niggas is better than OKC talent-wise.

I'm taking, I'm taking Jaylen Brunson because the pressures to play in New York is so much greater than playing OKC. He got his dad's dad bigger than New York. I'm just saying, everybody not built for that. I'm not saying Shay not, not saying, we ain't never seen him. But it's different structure, bro.

Like, people don't even put respect in name to be like on you or nothing, but nigga, you grew up like Jalen Bronson. It just wasn't filmed. Yo Pops was just like motherfucking that. Y'all heard that noise? Yeah, it's the TV. Yeah, I'm just saying, Yo Pops was just like motherfucking that. Y'all heard that noise? Yeah, it's the TV. I'm just saying, your pops was just like that.

So that's different, bro. That's different. What New York gives Jalen Brunson, nigga, he like, nigga, my pops was way worse than that. Just like you, that's why you were so good with different type of coaches, nigga, because your dad was motherfucking goddamn Joe Jackson. That's what I'm saying.

I don't know what Shay Lineage is. I mean, I've seen this pop song, Gilgamesh, and his pop seemed like he was a real nigga. No, it's probably solid, but I'm saying, it's just that when you growing up different like that, I just, Shay to me, what he got, I don't know, Jalen Brussin, is that type of player, to take them young niggas.

You got Kat, Mike L. Bridges, OG, bro, that's a, you got a whip. You still the leader, but damn, bro, like, that nigga took less money for a reason. Yeah, but he still like the focal point. Like, he's still the one. He's shooting 14 times. He's had the kids of the Logs.

You know, he's shooting 14, yeah. He's shooting 14 times. He's had the kids of the Logs. You know, he's shooting 14, yeah. He's shooting 14 times in a row in the fourth quarter. Like, you got Kat on your team. Like, nah, nigga, watch out. Yeah, cause even I look at them last year, like even though Nelson, they came up short against us. And he was dominating. He got the CD back rocking.

Not to discount Shay, cause Shay, like you said, doing a lot, but let's. Listen, Carmelo Anthony went to the Knicks, bro. He got it way more lit than when Mello was here. And Mello had squats. Mello had that aura too. He did, but he's big. Mello aura different. It ain't bigger than Jay, it ain't bigger than Jay.

It is, the aura is. In New York? Listen. Nah, fam. Mello himself or. Mello, Mello himself, listen. Mello aura in New York is way bigger than Jalen Brunson aura in New York right now. Cat, cat.

Oh no, bro. Cat, bro. Yes, bro. Jalen Brunson is winning for sure and that's good for the city, but if you just take them as people. Yeah, that's cause it's dick. Mello is bigger than Jalen Brunson, bro.

Mello been famous since we was fucking 14. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. But you said in New York. They just- Yes, in New York. Mind you, they said this is the biggest freak. Mello was losing in New York, bro,

and he was still the biggest nigga, bro. Still the biggest nigga. That's just New York. Yeah, that's was still the biggest nigga, bro. Still the biggest nigga. That's just New York. Yeah, that's the world, but I'm saying. But they said he's the biggest free agent signer in New York Knicks history. I'm not mad at that. That's coming from a basketball perspective.

I'm talking about overall. If J. LeBrunson walk down the street in New York right now, and Mello walk down the street, they're gonna be like, J.B.! What the fuck? I swear to God. Bro, he got the Knicks lit.

He do, bro, but it's a lot of niggas with him. He the biggest for the Knicks right now. I'm telling you, Mello's popularity, that aura is different, bro. Mello is that nigga. Jalen Brunson worked so fucking hard to get where he is now. Jalen Brunson is a blue collar nigga.

I'm not saying Mello is just a spoon fed nigga, but it's different, bro. Mello is getting compared to Lebr he is now. Jalen Brunson is a blue collar nigga. Not saying Mello is just a spoon fed nigga, but it's different bro. Mello is getting compared to LeBron bro. I'm not saying that, but I'm saying, what was Jalen Brunson been in New York, three years, two years? This is, yeah. He might go down as the best player,

but I swear to God if they wasn't winning. In two years he surpassed everything Mello did. Yeah, cause so far it's just winning basketball. I'm saying give him his same numbers and Mello's record, Mello is bigger. That's. I'm saying give him his same numbers in Melo's record. Melo is bigger. That's what I'm saying, you can't do that. The personality, you can though.

The personality. What he did for the Knicks, that's what people would dream for Melo to do. They like, we wish Melo would have did that. And it's unfortunate, cause Melo got a different version of James Dillon too. Yeah. He got dealt a totally different hand.

No, no, no, no. And that's not Jalen Brunson's fault. And he had to work with Phil Jackson and shit. That's not Jalen Brunson. I'm focused not Jalen Brunson's fault. And he had to work with Phil Jackson and shit. That's not Jalen Brunson. I'm focused on Jalen Brunson because he took that pay cut and believed in his team to get them to where they is. Jalen Brunson understood the assignment to bring New York to where they is.

Mello was like, shit, I'm just trying to get paid in a big market. It's two different swags, bro. But I'm saying, like, and I got the utmost respect for Mello. I think he won the coldest players ever. The thing is Jalen Brunson did that shit when New York was like not popping.

Like Melo went to New York and they was actually good. Did they hear what Amari did or whatever? Yeah, they was actually hooping. Like Amari really got the Knicks rolling. Yeah, bro, that hurtin' shit. And the shit was cool. But then Melo came and he lit a fire, was like, oh this shit popping like New York lit.

They got Mello, they got Amari. But it was never lit like this. And they portrayed him and tried to get two best role players. Yeah, because they're winning, y'all. I'm just telling y'all, Mello was lit because they were still losing and that nigga was still scoring 50 points

on all two points. Yeah, but it ain't looked like this. That was NBC. We watched, nigga. We argued at your house, bro. When Mello played against God damn D-Rose, bro. It's different, bro. It ain't like this, though.

It ain't like this. You think Jalen Brunson is just as big as the superstar Carmelo Anthony? In New York, yes, right now, yes. As a nigga. God damn, bro. It's not, like the only nigga that was bigger than New York, than Jalen Brunson is right now, was Jeremy Lin.

And I swear nobody was bigger than Jeremy Lin. That ain't even- Yeah, cause he got a cheat code. He got all the other people with him. And nigga, that shit wasn't even close. Yeah, cause he's a foreigner, bro. Yeah, but I'm just saying that shit wasn't close. And how we talking about,

yeah, I mean, he got a cheat code, bro. Yeah, he got a cheat code, but Jalen Brunson- He laid the bullprap. Yes, bro. Jalen Brunson got that same type of- Jeremy Lin, I think? Fuck no. No, no, I'm talking about like, he getting that same, Jeremy Lin was off the blueprint. Jalen Brunson got that same type of. Jeremy Lin effect, fuck no. No, no, I'm talking about like,

he getting that same, Jeremy Lin was off the charts. Like he was the most famous nigga in the NBA. Yeah, that Lin-Sanity Mellow-Boki. He made a movie off that shit. Yeah, they're all saying. It ain't gonna get no, no, nigga, he was bigger than Kobe for them two weeks, bro. Yeah.

Like, nigga was the biggest person in the world. We went to play, the nigga was nigga had to be 100, 200 cameras under the room when he was shooting for warmups, bro. I've never seen nothing like this shit. I'm like, this shit is crazy. Did he kill against y'all? Yeah, he killed. He got a hell of a game.

But Melo came. Yeah, Melo had came back, so it was like, I mean, he probably had like 18 and like seven, or 18 and 10, whatever it was. He had a good game, but Melo had came back, so. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, you know, I mean, he kinda had like 18 and like seven, 18 and 10, whatever it was. He had a good game, but Mello had came back, so. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, you know what I mean. He kind of was hating a little bit, but.

Yeah. I ain't mad at that. I ain't mad at that. I just stand with, I stand with Mello, bro. Nah, I love Mello too. Cause Jalen Brunson, I just don't think Jalen Brunson has that. If Jalen Brunson was like AE, it'd be different.

Jalen Brunson is just a killer. Oh, if Jalen Brunson had an attitude like AE. AE, it'd be different. Jalen Brunson is just a killer. Oh, if Jalen Brunson had an attitude like AE. Yeah, it'd be different, bro. Bro, he would be nigga, he would be Michael Jordan. If Jalen Brunson came out of the game and called somebody sad as fuck, bro, them New York fans would eat that shit up. But, bro. He's just a silent killer.

He kill and he do little shit that make you be like. So if he goes to the finals, he the biggest since Pat Youn. Bro, he bigger than Pat. He take the Knicks to the finals right now. He bigger than Pat? He bigger than. For this generation probably. The OGs ain't gonna go for this shit.

But for this generation, they gonna. The OGs gonna ride. The OGs gonna ride. The OGs gonna ride. The OGs gonna be like, y'all niggas got Pat fucked up. They gonna crash out. But nigga, the OGs gonna ride with Pat, but.

Yeah. The real nigga, Allen Houston was killing, bro. Like Pat was powering up. That's the fourth point play, Larry Johnson. That's the real bucket. Mike don't know nothing about Allen Houston. Allen Houston had one of the best y'all. Allen Houston could walk right past Mike right now.

Yeah, but like, Jalen Brunson, bro. Like every, bro. I love Jalen Brunson. I love Melo to death, but Melo wasn't doing what Jalen Brunson's doing in the fourth quarter, bro. No, bro. Clutch buckets?

Bro. Mello was like that to you. He is. I think it's because Niggas is winning and Jalen Brunson is- That matters. Is earning his contract for sure, for sure. And if Mello played in this era, Mello would kill.

Mello would be probably one of the top three players. He would fuck these niggas up. At this point in the pod is when I would be Googling and searching up stats when Mello played in New York. Yeah, Mello would be killing this league. His stats are better than Jalen Bronson's. Mello would play in a different era where scoring is more prevalent now,

so he would be killing. But I can't compare it because he don't play. You know what I mean? So, like, that's me, I'd be like, them I probably would have been a better player if I played now than when I played, cause you could do shit that I grew up doing. But shout out to, shout out to Mello though.

And you ain't disrespecting him or nothing. I hope not, but it's not about respect. Don't clip to something be weird. Yeah, you know how people get weird on YouTube and shit. But I'm saying though, like, Jailbrusher really got a better team, bro. Is it really better? Yes, bro, because John Cena was cool.

Yeah, bro, John Cena was cool, bro. But this team was... JR Smith is better than... Who? Everybody else on 18. Besides Kat. And Omari started... It matters, bro.

Omari started with Justice Day. Omari barely played with Rondo T. It's different. With Mello? With Mello. He did just got dumbed down. He was hurt but he got dumbed down a little bit with Mello there.

JR Smith. JR Smith, you got Eman Shumpert. Shumpert was just as good as Josh Hart. The white boy that shot threes. Steve Novak. Steve Novak. Steve Novak. Uh, come on bro, fuck no.

Mello didn't even have a big T. Tyson Chandler was on their team. come on bro, fuck no. Mella didn't even have a big team. Tyson Chandler was on their team. Come on, bro. And I love TC. TC is the reason why Dallas won the championship. Yeah, exactly. Is Dallas and Chandler better than Mitchell Robinson? Bro, all day.

Is that what we talking about? All day. That's what we talking about. They had. But I'm saying like that cat is better than Tyson Chandler. Bro, they had a Maury. By last night. They had a Maury. By land style. They had a Maury.

Yeah bro, but Maury didn't play. Come on, keep it real bro. Maquell Bridges and OG Anobe bro is a better duo than fucking Schumper and the JR Smith. On some real shit. Yeah, I mean JR is just good. And I fuck with Iman and JR. JR Smith was just another year at that time.

But to have two wings like that is crazy, bro. Niggas got seven foot wingspan, bro, and guard up any position. But Mello one of them wings. Jalen Brunson. It's really Mello and JR Smith against OG. Jalen Brunson gets you relaxed, bro. Cause he can take some nights off

and then he gets killed. Put him to point guard for the Knicks at that time. The first game against the Selfies, OG looked like the best player on the floor. With JB and everybody out there. Yeah, who was the point guard for the Knicks? Chauncey Billups played PG. Raymond Feldman was a PG.

He got traded for Mella. One of my favorite point guards. He got traded for Mella. Did he? I don't even know who led that. That's what I'm saying, we don't even know who led that team. Only point guard I remember playing with.

They did have old J.Kid. Come on, man. Niggas got better when they left New York. Maybe it was something in New York. Cause J.Kid was on that Maverick squad too. With Tyson Chandler. Only point guard I remember really playing with Mello, bro, was legit Chauncey Billings.

And YouTube, I know y'all check everything. Check that. They had older guards in New York, that's a fact. I mean, they had a older- You don't remember them matchups? They had an older scene. I mean, Mello had an older scene. York, that's a fact. I mean they had a older. You don't remember them matchups? They had an older team. I mean Mello had an older team. Yeah, that's different, that's what I'm saying.

Jalen Brunson is literally rocking with niggas that he's around his age group. Like come on man, Michael Bridges is really one of the best fucking queens in the NBA. Top 10 wing in the NBA. I'm not saying their team wasn't better, but what he doing with that team, cause nigga they don't get the ball like that.

Nigga when it's all over with the game, nigga they get a ball to jail the person. You ain't gonna give it to your killer. What you say about Joe? Joe said, y'all do y'all thing these first three quarters, this fourth quarter nigga, give me the pill. Well I'm saying you doing that. He earned that.

Nigga I took a hundred million dollar cut. Give me the fuck a ball. But listen. You doing that. That's not my problem swinging the ball. You think Mike is taking a $100 million cut for us? Listen. I would.

Listen. Oh, nigga. I'm not taking that. But listen, he doing that in the fourth quarter. He's about to be in the Eastern Conference Finals. It's like you can't, he lived. Is Shailen Brusser better than Tyler, I mean Tyler, Tyrese Halliburton?

Yes. He gotta beat him though. And they about to meet up. He gotta beat him. But I mean, they did get their ass beat tonight, so Celtics might be on to something, but. Jalen Brunson, bro, he got, bro, it's people in New York, bro, telling him,

bro, y'all don't gotta do nothing else, bro. You did enough. We love you. Like, bro, they wanna put a, they gonna retire his jersey already, bro. To pivot this conversation, I wanna ask y'all this question of the remaining people left.

We got a lot of people who could be first time champions between Halliburton, JB, AE, and Shay. I mean, we ain't gonna count out, okay, I mean Denver, but just amongst those, who would the championship mean the most to? Jalen Brosnan. Okay. Because of Knicks?

New York. If he Knicks? New York. If he won a chip in New York, bro. He's forever good no matter what. He's forever good now, but if he won a chip in New York, bro, he- He gonna mean the most. Bro, he gonna, they might put a statue of it, bro. They got to though.

He be the most polarizing figure ever, just cause of the market. If OKC, if Shay wins NBA championship, it wouldn't look nowhere near as Jalen Bronson. Would nobody give a fuck about Oklahoma City, bro. What about A? That's a... A would be lit, but nobody would.

Yeah, it's the same. It's like Yannis won the chip. Nah, and that's a good point too, but it's like if Shay wins it, oh, my mama, he gonna get treated like Kawhi Leonard in Toronto. Real shit. Yannis in the world.

New York? If Pat Ewing I'm saying? New York? If Pat Ewing would have won in New York, bro, Pat Ewing would have never put on the Orlando Magic Jersey. Yeah, bro. Real shit. So is everybody with DJ counting the patients out? I'm not counting them out. I am.

I'm not. I think they can win, but I'm just saying it's Jena Brunson. If you win and bring it to New York, you like, you a guy bro. If Tyrese Helleburton win, I'm a mama that's a Kuala Lina championship. Oh, if we win a championship,

they're gonna say we don't give a fuck. They're gonna say they're gonna be with them. The three other teams in this final four that we think of Denver don't win, Minnesota, OKC, Indiana, small market teams, nobody gonna fuck. Nobody gonna give a fuck. That's how the NBA works. Yeah, so New York, they beat Boston,

they the only team that. But I ain't gonna lie, it's lit in Indiana if Tyrese bring his shit for us, bitch. For us, because we from there. If Tyrese Halliburton puts his shit in Gainesbridge, bro. You have to give him, he is the greatest pacer of all time. But ain't nobody gonna give a fuck. Nobody's gonna give a shit.

If the Pacers, okay, see, make it to the finals, it's gonna be the least watched finals ever. Oh yeah, you think the draft library's rigged now, boy, they gonna make sure. Like, that shit gonna be the least watched finals ever. Oh yeah, you think DraftLive is rigged now, boy they gonna make sure. Like that shit gonna be, I think it's good for NBA. You remember when, who was that, the Knicks and the Spurs played or something,

did nobody watch the finals? Yeah. It's gonna be worse than that. I agree, I agree. That shit ain't nobody gonna watch the finals, bro. I agree, but I think it's good for NBA. That's why the NBA need New York. It'll be good for our city,

cause niggas don't remember when the Colts won the Super Bowl, it was quiet. But Payne Manning was so polarized. That was P-Murder though. It was, but it was really quiet y'all. It was probably definitely mid. It was probably mid. Me and my niggas drove downtown.

Probably was weak as fuck. It was, it was, it was. But only AE. It was quiet. AE can say the finals. Either Jaylen It was God. AE can say the finals. Either Jalen Brunson or AE can say the finals. But if it's OKC or Indiana, bro, that shit is not. Ain't no telling what AE gonna do if he win.

But AE playing in the finals, it's gonna be, cause he gonna start saying shit. You know why we here. Yeah. Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah. But if it's Indiana and OKC, filthy. Yeah, cause I ain't winning shipments to everybody. I am better than all y'all niggas.

Now what's up? Yeah, nigga tell Obama nigga. Yeah, yeah, what they enough really? Yeah, like he talking like he like that. I am like that. They know that. You tell the president that, bro. You didn't look at him like he offended me.

Like nigga, what the fuck you talking about? I'm rolling. Y'all don't fall for that. Cause Obama out of pocket. Hey, what's the nigga that played for the Philadelphia Eagles? I think his name was Knox Cox Paws. He was like a defensive tackle for the Philadelphia Eagles back in the day.

Who's that jabbing now? I don't know, I think his name was like something, Cox, but Paul's, but he was like, that's just a, that's a wild ass name. COX. Yeah, that one. But he was like, good, but when Bush was the president, he came walking by, he was like,

I heard you a Cowboys fan. He was like, who told you that? How you know that? He was like, we about to beat they ass. And don't worry about it, we gonna beat they ass too. What the fuck you talking about? I was like, damn, Fletcher Cox, isn't that?

Shout out to Fletcher Cox, one of the best. He was like, we gonna beat they ass. I was like, yeah, I like them kind of niggas. Nah, for sure, for sure. He was like, I don't give a fuck about you, walk across the street. But I'm saying, AE win, the NBA in trouble. Oh yeah, y'all thought sitting the video was bad.

It is up, it's AE gonna win. And with that being said. My nigga gonna go crazy next year and I can't wait. For sure. His roster gonna get updated rosters. There you have it, the origin story of the freaky Mike. No wait, wait, wait, before y'all go, I have to ask one question.
